While the two girls made their way to the bath, Asher couldn''t help but nce at their round bottoms as they swayed from side to side and admired their feminine curves before smiling to himself.
Meanwhile, Scarlet and Cecil were amazed by the beauty of the ce, as they had never seen anything like this before.
The hot spring was arge pool of clear, blue water that steamed in the cool night air as it reflected the light.
The surrounding nts added to the beauty, with lush green bushes and trees dotted here and there, creating a natural garden.

As the two of them walked towards the pool, Scarlet noticed how the stones underneath were smooth and polished, creating a unique texture under her bare feet.
She saw that there were also a few rocks and boulders scattered around the edges of the pool, which gave it a more natural look.
But what stood out the most was how the steam rose from the water, creating a dreamy and surreal atmosphere, making one forget about everything else and rx.
"Wow. This ce is so beautiful..." Cecil said in amazement as she dipped her foot into the water and felt the warmth engulfing her toes.
"Yes, it is." Scarlet replied as she joined her in the hot spring.
The two girls then stepped into the hot spring and lowered themselves until their bodies werepletely immersed in the warm, soothing waters.
The heat enveloped them, wrapping around them like aforting nket as they felt their muscles rx.
"Ahhh... This feels so good." Scarlet said as she stretched her arms out and let out a contented sigh. "I could stay here forever."
Cecil giggled as she nodded her head. "Me too! This is so rxing. I think I could fall asleep right now."
Both the girls continued to soak in the hot spring and enjoyed the sensation of the water enveloping them for a few minutes.
However, their attention was soon captured by the man taking a shower a few meters away from them, and they couldn''t help but stare at him with unblinking eyes.
The way the water flowed down his sculpted body made it difficult for them to look away. Every muscle was clearly defined as it rippled beneath his skin with every movement.
The way they looked at the man was as if they were mesmerized by him, but what they didn''t notice was that their faces had turned slightly flushed and their hearts were beating faster than normal.
Soon, the man finished his bath and started walking towards them, which snapped the girls out of their daze and made them look away from him in embarrassment.
''What''s wrong with me? Why was I staring at him like that?'' Scarlet asked herself while trying to calm down her heartbeat, which had started racing for some unknown reason.
''He is so...handsome.'' Cecil thought to herself as her eyes, for a brief moment,nded on Asher again.
Soon, Asher reached the side of the hot spring where the girls were already soaking and smiled at them before saying, "So are you girls enjoying the hot spring?"
Both girls nodded their heads in response while continuing to avoid looking at him.
Asher couldn''t help but grin upon seeing them behaving this way, as he thought that the girls seemed adorable, acting all shy.
With a mischievous grin, he sat between both girls and wrapped his arms around them, pulling them closer to him.
"Hey, what are you..." Scarlet uttered in surprise upon feeling his hands around her waist.
"Shush. Why are you acting shy all of a sudden? You were not this nervous when you wanted to sleep with me to cure your poison." Asher whispered into her ears, causing goosebumps to rise all over her skin.
"That''s because... It was an emergency, and..." Scarlet stammered, trying to exin herself, but in the end, she just kept quiet.
Cecil blushed upon hearing his words and didn''t dare say anything in fear of embarrassing herself, just like Scarlet.
She could feel his naked chest pressing against her back and his arm around her waist, and although it should have felt awkward and ufortable, she surprisingly felt safe and secure in his embrace.
''Why does this feel so different?'' She thought to herself as she tried to make sense of the emotions running through her mind right now.
"Rx girls. Don''t think too much about it, and just enjoy the moment," Asher said as he leaned back on a rock behind him.
Scarlet and Cecil exchanged nces with each other before rxing their bodies and resting their heads on his shoulders.
It was quite a bizarre situation for them, as they feltfortable and calm despite being with aplete stranger whom they knew nothing about except that he had saved their lives.
Soon, a calm and peaceful silence descended upon the three of them as they sat there together in the hot spring, with only the sound of flowing water filling the air.
No one spoke for a long time until eventually, Asher broke the silence by asking, "How about you girls tell me about yourselves now? I think it''s about time."
"Oh! That''s right. We haven''t introduced ourselves properly yet, huh?" Scarlet eximed after being reminded by Asher.
"Yes." Cecil agreed as she lifted her head from Asher''s shoulder and turned towards him before continuing, "I''m Cecil Sylphiria, and she is Scarlet ymore, my best friend. We both are disciples of the Twilight Mist Sect."
"Oh, so both of you are from the Twilight Mist Sect? I was also going there while training myself in the ck Forest," Asher revealed with a smile on his face.
"What? Really?" Scarlet eximed in surprise upon learning that he was also nning on joining their sect.
"Yes, it is true. My mom suggested that I join that sect."
"What is your name? Who is your mom? Is she powerful and influential? How is she rted to our Twilight Mist Sect?" Scarlet bombarded Asher with questions, eager to know more about him.
Asher couldn''t help but shake his head upon seeing her enthusiasm and said, "I am Asher ke and my mother''s name is Aria ke."
"WHAT!!!" Scarlet and Cecil both shouted simultaneously, their jaws dropping open in shock and disbelief as they heard his answer.
