Requiem Of A Failed Hero



For a first-time experience. It wasn't such a bad thing, except for the inconveniences of their boobs rubbing against his back and how tingly their touch can be sometimes.

Raith had to admit that he enjoyed the bath. It was the first time he had taken a bath in days. His hair was worse, he had not washed the damn thing in months, maybe years in fact and they were already too rough and tangled.

However, the young ladies washed his hair and every other area of his body. The delicate areas were taken care of by Hana and Maria... Raith most especially hated the way they teased him.

"Oh, master. You are quite big down here."

From a tree spirit. How did things come to this?

In cases like this Raith would just stay silent, void of answers. To be honest, he liked that he was being bathed but it came with too many inconveniences. And he thought to himself that this was going to be the last time.

But Raith's adventures with these ladies were just starting.

After they were done. Hana presented Raith with a rob which he used to cover his body as he stepped out of the spring. She also donned a robe and released the scarf on her head to allow her silver hair to fall freely on her shoulders.

Her golden eyes along with that small snakish smile that just wouldn't fall off her face stuck to Raith's back as he walked towards the wooden shelter that had been built to the west of the spring.

It was in the style of a Japanese spa and that was how Slyvia demanded that it be built. Moreso, it was perfect compared to the shabby houses of the people of Therut.

Shoji screens perfectly fit into the frame, sloping roofs that blended harmoniously with the niche. Moreso, the robe that Raith was putting on was actually a Yukata, a lightweight kimono—but because it was plain white, it might not have been noted as one.

Raith sat at the platform of the shelter, on a wooden floor.

Hana reached his front with the box she was initially carrying. She dropped it next to him and untied the silk, opened the box, and brought out the clothes, all the while, her subtle smile still sitting gracefully on her lips.

She brought out the clothes and looked at Raith.

Raith looked at her back, dazed.

"You want to dress me too?"

"Yes, my lord. I will do everything for you. And this is a delicate dress that I prepared for you. It is my first work after my awakening and I imbued it with some abilities."

"Wow... you have a skill like that?"

"Yes, my lord."

Raith impressed by the progress, nodded as he stood up. Almost everyone in the city has received an awakening and can now do one thing or the other, most especially the children.

There was a time when Mok Jae-Hwa was even talking about sending them to a school of hunters in the United Kingdom but he didn't pay much attention to what the guy was talking about. Well, naturally he wasn't paying much attention to what was going on here.

She began to wear the clothes on him, starting with his pants. Raith looked away in embarrassment but it was soon over.

'Am I supposed to get used to this?'

He wondered as she continued. The rest were bearable and in a couple of minutes, she was done.

Raith was now donned in a black coat, meticulously crafted from rich, deep-toned fabrics. The coat boasts intricate patterns on the edge, resembling some mysterious magic runes. Its long sleeves enabled free and fluid movement as Raith tested them out by stretching forth his hand to see if they wouldn't restrict his movement.

He was pretty impressed.

Beneath the resplendent coat was a fitted inner shirt that offered both comfort and functionality. The shirt was made of lightweight, breathable linen with a sheen that caught the light. The shirt's neckline is delicately embellished with ornate lacework and rose to cover his jaw. I think you should take a look at .cοm

The boots provided and pants were nothing short of amazing. In a single moment, Raith's look had completely changed from a nobody to a somebody, as he stood, he exuded an aura of majesty.

Hana was proud of her work.

"It's a perfect fit!"

She clapped as Raith stood.

"Yeah, I like it."

He admired the outfit and looked at her.

"Well done."

Her eyes welled as she heard the words. contemporary romance

'I received a compliment from the hero... mom, I wish you were alive to see this moment'

It was a sad thing for her that her mom was not able to make it out of the building when it fell during the awakening of the archons.

Luckily she was saved too and was a witness to the outlandish performance Raith put forth in saving several people during the havoc.

She personally was saved by Raith's dead soldier who stayed over her while a chunk of stone fell from above, taking the whole damage while she made a run for it as fast as she could.

Nothing but gratitude filled her heart since then and she has always looked at Raith with so much respect. When the offer came that a few girls who were ready to not take a husband to serve Raith should step out, she was the first to respond.

She had searched for a way to get closer to him, to be of help to him and the chance finally came.

Receiving a 'well-done' from Raith... to her, there was no greater thing that could have happened. She was almost gasping for breath because of it.

"Thank you so much! I am so glad you said that!!"

She shouted, bowing ninety degrees.

Almost shocked, Raith recomposed himself, although he still thought her reaction to be excessive. He simply said thank you to her because he got to get such a good outfit without having to pay a dime.

"Hey, don't have the wrong idea about this... I am not doing this because I care about you or anything. But since you named both of us, our lives are tied to you. That is why I will train these before you come back. By the time you come back, they would be elite enough to have your backs."

Slyvia said, blushing a little bit in between her speech but she ended it with a stern, confident look.

Raith smirked satisfactorily.

"Thank you... and you too Maria"

"Yes, Lord Raven! We'll be waiting for you"

She replied with a vibrant glow.

Raith afterwards walked away throwing one hand at them. They all looked at his dependable behind fade into the woods.
