Chapter 118: Sleep Together!
Two straw mats, a small bag of salt, five sets of linen clothes, and a complete set of kitchen utensils.
The haul was quite decent, especially since it was all given freely by the villagers.
Apart from Jilly’s set of clothes, the other four sets were obtained from four different households.
There was no other choice; out of the hundred or so households, about a third had young daughters, but very few of these girls owned more than two sets of clothes.
After all, they are girls; it’s only right to leave them with at least one set of clean clothes.
So, after some picking and choosing, I ended up with only four sets of clothes, all of which looked rather old and worn.
The pots, pans, and other kitchen utensils were temporarily placed in the dining room on the first floor of the castle.
As for the clothes and straw mats, I had Stealth One bring them to the entrance of the bedroom on the third floor, then asked Red Pupil to come out and take them inside.
When Stealth One saw Red Pupil, who had also transformed into human form, he was taken aback.
She too seemed surprised that Red Pupil had taken on the appearance of a young girl.
…
Finally, she had some clothes!
No more being stared at by Red Pupil…
Lin Yu let out a deep sigh of relief.
Using "cleaning" on these clothes and the straw mats, the moldy spots disappeared, and the clothes and mats became clean, though the yellowing and wrinkles remained.
But there was no use complaining about that now.
The girl eagerly picked up Jilly’s bandage and wrapped it around her Class A chest, but when it came time to tie it, she fumbled a bit.
"Mom, let me help you."
The little girl naturally took the ends of the cloth and tied a knot behind Lin Yu’s back.
"This should do it."
"Hmm…"
Lin Yu blushed and quickly put on Jilly’s underwear and the linen dress.
Surprisingly, it fit quite well.
Once dressed, she felt a sense of security return.
Then she noticed Red Pupil also selecting an outfit that fit her size and putting it on.
She felt an inexplicable pang of disappointment.
"Mom, you were watching me change just now, weren’t you?"
No, I wasn’t!
A lolicon? I’m not a lolicon!
"What’s the matter?"
Lin Yu turned her face away, feeling a bit guilty.
"What does Mom think about how her daughter looks in her clothes?"
"It’s pretty good…"
She was wearing an old burlap dress, which looked quite unattractive! It would be better not to wear anything at all!
Ah, I’m wearing a burlap dress too…
"I don’t really like wearing clothes; they make me feel a bit uncomfortable."
The little girl frowned slightly, tugging at her clothes here and there, appearing somewhat dissatisfied.
"Let’s just manage for now."
Actually, I feel a bit uncomfortable too.
After all, the clothes are of very rough quality; it’s natural for them to be uncomfortable, especially compared to the clothes I wore before.
But now that I can take on a human form, perhaps I’ll have the chance to get some nice and comfortable clothes in Aowenduo Town later?
Ah! That’s right, there’s something I need to make clear.
"Little Pupil, if you appear as a member of the human race, even if you don’t like wearing clothes, you must wear proper clothes when you go outside."
Running around outside without clothes is just shameless!
"Mm, I understand, Mom."
The little girl nodded obediently.
…
Next was the straw mat.
One was stored away in another space, while the other was spread out on the wooden bed covered with dry grass.
She couldn’t help but sit down to try it.
Because a thick layer of dry grass was underneath, the bed didn’t feel hard, and the straw mat on top was woven neatly, making it comfortable to sit on instead of sitting directly on the grass.
Though simple, it could already be called a bed!
She remembered three years ago, dreaming of waking up in the morning with the sunrise, sitting up from a soft bed, and stretching her body comfortably after a long time…
Waking up to the sunrise was easy; as long as you lived on the ground, it was already achieved.
The second soft bed has now been realized, even if just barely.
The third one stretches… and turns into a person! Now it can stretch!
And right now, it’s almost time to sleep.
Then in the morning, I can chase my dreams, and I feel a little excited.
I just don’t know if my belly will get bigger when I wake up in the morning.
After spending the whole afternoon, it may not be obvious, but my belly seems to have really gotten a little bigger…
I really feel like I might be pregnant.
Oh, I feel like a bad girl who became pregnant as a teenager…
My feelings are so complicated.
However, she had tried to cancel the "Transformation" skill afterward, but nothing changed, so she had no choice but to maintain her current appearance for the time being.
In any case, everything could wait until tomorrow.
…
The girl used her "Cleaning" skill to remove the dust and dirt from her body and feet, then climbed onto the wooden bed.
Then she noticed the little girl sitting on the bed as well.
"Mommy, I want to do it too."
Red Pupil pointed at her tiny feet, which were naturally covered in dust and dirt from walking barefoot.
The "Cleaning" skill was a daily-life ability that didn’t contribute much to combat, so Lin Yu hadn’t bestowed it upon any of her daughters, as there were more crucial skills to prioritize.
"Hmm."
That’s right, you need to clean your feet properly before getting into bed.
What a sensible and thoughtful daughter! She could speak even though I hadn’t taught her anything, and aside from not understanding some modern terms, she seemed to grasp many things.
The girl instinctively used the "Clean" skill on Red Pupil’s small feet.
Only after seeing the little feet become spotless did she realize what she had done.
Wait a minute…
Does this mean… you want to sleep with me?!
Huh!!
…Really?
Do you really want to sleep with Mommy?
Before my rebirth, I always slept alone.
Just the thought of sharing a bed with someone else makes me incredibly nervous…
While it’s true that mothers and daughters sleeping together is normal, I feel like I’d be too anxious to fall asleep!
But there’s only one bed in the castle, and I can’t let Red Pupil sleep on the floor…
"Does Little Pupil want to sleep with me?"
Oh, I’m so nervous!
It feels so unfamiliar. Maybe I’ll "borrow" another wooden bed from the carpenter later.
We really should sleep in separate rooms.
After all, there are so many rooms in the castle. Although many are damaged, quite a few are still habitable.
Just as she was thinking this…
"Hasn’t my daughter always slept with her mother?"
The little girl tilted her head, her expression filled with confusion.
"I want to sleep with Mommy. I like being with Mommy. Mommy must like it too, right?"
After noticing her feet were clean, she climbed onto the bed and leaned close to Lin Yu, speaking in a soft, sweet voice, her face lit up with a happy, expectant smile.
Wow, so adorable!
Back when Red Pupil was part of the Ant Clan, she seemed so mature and dependable, definitely not the type to act this cute.
I can’t refuse…
And since she asked like that, it’s hard to say no.
Anyway, since the daughter still looks young, we can discuss sleeping in separate rooms later.
…
"Hmm."
Lin Yu nodded with a cold tone.
"That’s great."
After the little girl exclaimed happily, Lin Yu saw her start to… take off the clothes she had just put on??
"Wait, what are you doing?"
"Taking off my clothes."
Huh? So…
"Why are you taking them off?"
"Mom said we have to wear clothes to go outside, but when sleeping, we don’t need to, right? I always feel like I can’t sleep well in these clothes."
But if you don’t wear clothes, Mom won’t be able to sleep well!
However, while Lin Yu was silently complaining in her heart, the little girl had already stripped herself bare in no time.
"Do you need my help, Mom?"
"Me??"
Do I need to?
"…I don’t need to."
"Hmm."
Seeing that Red Pupil was not bothering her anymore, Lin Yu sighed with relief.
But the little girl leaned closer, wrapping her tiny hands around her, with her black and white hair mixing together.
The little girl’s slightly hurried breathing touched her neck, and the girl could smell a faint sweetness coming from her.
Such a close action made her heart race once again.
"Mommy, let’s go to bed early."
"…Okay."
Who can sleep like this!
However, after ten minutes of tension, Lin Yu unknowingly fell asleep.
That night, she still slept soundly.
…
…
When most of the ants went to rest for the night.
On the other side.
The area where the advanced monster appears in the north.
"Sister Army Lady, we have it surrounded!"
"Good, if the target tries to escape, you are responsible for stopping it. Military One and Military Two will keep watch around, and the other ants come with me."
Army Lady and the other three Military Ants charged forward, their noise waking the monster that was lightly sleeping.
After a fierce battle, this Class B high-level monster’s health value reached zero.
A shiny black ant stood on top of the monster’s body, covered in blood.
It’s still not enough… Only by getting stronger can I bring back more Class A Monsters.
Moreover, the ant clan has night vision, making them have an advantage in nighttime battles!
She bit down hard on the monster’s flesh below and swallowed it along with the blood.
"Eat it, then we can continue hunting."
