Ten minutes later, Shane and Merica finally left the hot springs, fully dressed, and walked out of a small grove.
It's just that Merica's walk was somewhat awkward, making Shane, for some reason, want to laugh.
"Do you need help walking, Merica?"
Shane teased with a cheekiness that belied his advantage.
Merica's face turned completely red.
"No... no need..."
A voice lighter than a mosquito's came from the cute elf girl's mouth.
The sound was so faint that probably no one but Shane, with his "Outer Destiny" enhanced six senses, could hear it.
Clearly, following the subsiding of her inner panic and unease, Merica's shy and nervous side had emerged again.
The evidence was that the little elf kept glancing back at the hot spring they had left not long ago, recalling the entwined battle with Shane, her face becoming redder than red.
Even now, Merica could hardly believe that right here, her innocence had been taken by Shane.
