"Ah..."
"Uh...?"
"You..."
We three each let out a single word—different yet the same—as we tried to wrap our heads around the situation.
I was the first to understand.
It was the kind of scene you'd see in some raunchy comic.
I hadn't even known this hot spring existed until we stumbled upon it by chance, so there was no way Lenis could've known about it first and come to bathe alone. And even if she had, there was zero reason for her to be buck naked and masturbating here.
She must've seen Ravi and me having sex... and started pleasuring herself from behind a tree.
"!!!"
Lenis was the second to grasp the situation.
Her pupils trembled in utter panic, but the moment realization hit, she snatched up her clothes and underwear from her feet and bolted naked down the mountainside.
"Where the hell do you think you're going?! We have to catch her!"
I took off after the streaking Lenis, still naked myself.
Ravi, who was the last to catch on, jumped in surprise and gave chase as well.
"Lenis! Wait just a second!"
"D-don't follow me!"
Vmmm—
As she fled, Lenis cast an acceleration spell on herself, sprinting at speeds rivaling the Bunny Tribe for dear life.
Ravi couldn't keep up in her awkward towel getup, so she tossed it aside and pursued Lenis at full throttle, naked as the day she was born.
Two naked women racing through the mountains at night, with a naked man hot on their heels.
Anyone who saw us would've thought a bunch of lunatics had escaped from some facility.
But not a one of us was anything less than dead serious.
If Lenis got away like this, the mountains at night were dangerous, and even if nothing happened, she might refuse to talk to us ever again.
We had to catch her first and calmly talk things out to clear the misunderstanding...
"Lenis! Stop for a moment!"
"Lenis! Don't run away—wait up! Let's talk!"
"I said don't follow me! Just leave me alone!"
"If you won't stop, I'll make you stop by force!"
Ravi wanted to talk it out calmly too, but with no sign of Lenis slowing down, she resorted to more aggressive measures.
Tremendous power gathered at Ravi's toes. She unleashed a powerful roundhouse kick into the air, sending a razor-sharp gust blade hurtling forward.
The wind blade from her leg strength alone sliced through the massive trees blocking Lenis's escape path like butter, toppling them sideways to bar her way.
Thud! Thud!
The trees blocked her path, but Lenis raised the ring on her finger, where gold and silver intertwined.
A beam of light shot from the moon overhead, bathing the shattered trees. Moonlight infused with power then obliterated them, clearing the road ahead.
That wasn't what I gave her the gear for... or what I taught her those skills for...
"Lenis! Stop right there!"
"I said don't follow me!"
With no end in sight to the naked chase, Ravi started firing off slashes laced with a hint of emotion, willy-nilly.
The forest shattered in chaos as trees toppled nonstop, and Lenis kept destroying them while fleeing in a loop.
In the end, Lenis tired out first.
Their power levels were similar, but innate physical ability meant no human could outlast a Bunny Tribe member.
Ravi scooped up the exhausted, collapsed Lenis over her shoulder and hurried back to me, who'd caught up.
"Hah... hah... G-got her."
"Hng... hng... Let me go?!"
"Huff... huff... Good job, Ravi. You did great. And Lenis—what's with running off? We're not monsters or anything."
"Hng... Y-you chased me, so I ran!"
"You ran first!"
"Whatever! Let me go! I'm heading back! You perverts! Horny beasts! You said you were foraging, but you come all the way up here for this... Even monkeys have more dignity than you! And how'd you find the hot spring, anyway? Buck naked doing something so... am-amazing..."
Lenis trailed off, her face flushing red.
"Hah... hah... Lenis, why'd you run and make us go through all this?! Look at me! I couldn't grab a single piece of clothing..."
We'd tangled naked dozens of times by now, but streaking through the mountains was a whole other level of embarrassment, so Ravi was mortified.
And she seemed a tad annoyed at Lenis for causing this mess.
Lenis, for her part, puffed up with pride and snapped back at Ravi.
"Y-you're the ones who were doing it there in the first place! Put me down! I'm gonna get dressed and head back to camp!"
"No way! We were gonna let you go if you hadn't run, but now look at us—me, Alvis, all because of you? You deserve punishment."
Ravi hoisted the squirming Lenis—still slung over her shoulder—and retraced their steps.
I hadn't noticed on the frantic chase up, but climbing back naked as a jaybird felt... insanely pervy and humiliating.
Ravi and Lenis both realized their own states too; their faces burned red, and they fell silent.
Lenis clutched her clothes, but Ravi—wanting her to suffer the shame too, apparently—didn't let her dress.
So the three of us climbed the mountain naked in the dead of night.
Back at the hot spring, Lenis thrashed even harder than before, pounding Ravi's back while draped over her.
"Let me go! That's enough already! I'm leaving!"
"No. Hmph!"
"Wha—? Uwaaaah!"
Splash!
Ravi tossed Lenis into the spring. Lenis surfaced, soaked to the skin from head to toe.
"What the hell was that for?!"
"Hehe, punishment. For interrupting our lovemaking... and making us run naked through the mountains♡"
"L-love...? Ravi, this guy's Alvis?! But you liked Brayden... all three years at the academy!"
"Brayden?"
Ravi asked back as if she'd heard the most absurd thing, like it was someone else's business.
Her expression blank, she replied calmly.
"Now that I think about it, yeah, there was that time."
"Wha... what? 'There was that time'? You sound like you're talking about some other guy..."
"Lenis, I've found true love. A man nothing like Brayden—arrogant, prejudiced, and hypocritical at his core."
As she said it, Ravi pressed her naked body against mine and hooked her arm in. God, she was irresistible.
"Wha... Alvis? Sure, he's way better than he was at the academy, I'll give you that... But how can you say that about Brayden?!"
"You don't know the real Brayden, Lenis. But I found out when I briefly returned home."
Ravi recounted her encounter with Brayden and Celine in the Carrot Duchy. I'd heard it all before.
She finished by mashing her breasts even harder against me.
"That's the kind of guy Brayden is. I had no idea back then—I thought it was love. Pretty stupid, right? The man who truly understands and loves me was right here."
Ravi waded into the spring toward Lenis, gently stroking her shoulder.
"What about you, Lenis? Can you swear you know the real Brayden? What if you're missing the one who truly gets you?"
Ravi whispering in her ear like a serpent...
Thanks to her setup, I casually slipped into the water opposite them, and we naturally ended up in a mixed bath.
As Lenis thrashed to escape Ravi's embrace and leave, Alvis dropped a casual bombshell.
"Lenis, you called us monkeys and trash, but weren't you the one buck naked behind a tree, jerking off to us?"
"Urk...!"
No comeback for that—Lenis flushed crimson and trembled.
"So let's bury what happened tonight among us and call it even. No need to make a fuss. Got it? Might as well wash up in this nice spot while we're here."
"How can you be so shameless—"
She wanted to smack Alvis a few times—he'd seen her naked, and now acted like mixed bathing was the most natural thing.
"Lenis, you know Alvis talks tough but he's kind and gentle, right? Deep down, you think so too. Haven't you ever felt truly understood, trusted, loved by him?"
Ravi's whisper dredged up memories.
Alvis, who got her insecurities about her background, obsessed with flashy visuals and surface appeal—"I rely on you a lot." Filling her self-esteem for real.
He'd boosted her lacking confidence while bluntly critiquing her pointless flashy spells, urging her to master the basics.
No one could've responded like that without true insight.
What about Brayden?
- "Lenis's magic is so flashy. Suits you perfectly."
- "You always dress so well, Lenis. If only Celine had half your sense. Haha!"
Brayden... he'd just praised her outward show.
He'd come to Libertà promising to save her, massacred people, burned the city... but never followed up.
Even after the incident sparked the Empire's full intervention in the kingdom, no word of Brayden handling the aftermath.
But Alvis...
Alvis understood her complex. Pointed out her real flaws. Drew out the validation she craved most. The feeling when he gave her that ring...
'Ah...'
Lenis's mind cooled, her emotions sorting themselves out.
As she lifted her head from gazing at the water's surface...
Slurp— slurp—
Alvis stood in the spring, Ravi half-submerged on her knees before him, demurely sucking his cock with wet pops.
"Wh-what are you two doing?! A-again with that... that..."
Ravi paused, beaming ecstatically with smiling eyes, glancing at Lenis before pulling off.
"No point hiding now that you've seen. And you interrupted us earlier, so... relax and warm up, Lenis. We'll just... finish what we started♡"
They resumed as if she weren't there.
Ravi slurping his massive cock like candy, tongue flicking. Alvis stroking her head like she was his pet.
No safe place to look... yet Lenis's eyes kept drifting back.
Her lower belly heated, growing slick. Before she knew it, one hand slipped between her legs, swallowing hard as she watched their foreplay up close.
"Shall we pick up again?"
"Yes...♡"
Alvis sank into the water; Ravi climbed atop facing him.
The moment they moved to reunite...
"W-wait a sec!"
Lenis called out unbidden.
She clapped a hand over her mouth, but the words were out.
Sensing it was too late, she calmed her pounding heart and whispered,
"D-does... th-that... f-feel... g-good...?"
Her eyes damp, she gazed at Alvis.
