- Dahlia's POV -
After we arrived back at the base, I went straight home, then took off my battle suit and flopped onto the bed.
Ah... No good. I'm running out of energy and should eat, but I'm too tired for that... and this bed... feels comfortable...
Hmmhh~~~
Hm?, the smell of food...
Oh, right. I fell asleep huh?.
I slowly woke up a little weakly. Realizing I was still naked, I took the pants and shirt that were lying around, and put them on.
"Yo, you're awake. I bought some food before going home."
Right after leaving the room, I divided some food into three plates on the table.
"What time is it now?"
"It's almost nine o'clock. You take a shower first, I'm already filling the water."
I immediately nodded in response. But before that, I took a piece of tofu to fill my stomach, and went back to the room to get my energy drink.
This is a special drink that very few people can get. So I locked the door before grabbing the mini fridge I had hidden under the bed.
I told Karen and Leo that it was just my snacks and locked it because I was afraid they would take it.
They said they wouldn't, but I was adamant and made it seem like a small thing so they wouldn't get suspicious.
This drink is only produced from one source, and I doubt anyone can match it. And since it's not easy to get, I only have half a bottle left.
When I took a sip, a slightly sour and slightly sweet taste filled my mouth. There was only about 250 ml left, so because I was reluctant, I finished it and let the drink linger in my mouth for a few moments before swallowing it so I could savor the deliciousness a little longer.
After feeling a little more energetic, I put the fridge back in, and immediately went to take a shower.
It was like Karen had said before. When I got into the bathroom, the water in the tub was almost full, so I quickly turned off the tap.
I couldn't just jump into the tub. The first rule of bathing is to clean yourself before taking a bath. So I took a hot shower and scrubbed my entire body first.
Then the second rule, put body cleansing fluid into the water. Wait, maybe I should just put in some NEC medicine.
This Neutrali-whatever medicine works to remove dirty magis energy that enters the body.
I had been exposed to dense magis energy before, and haven't used it since three weeks ago.
In addition, this medicine is also able to remove dirt from the body like a cleaning fluid. Although it's not as clean as that liquid, it's still much better than soap.
After I put in the NEC medicine, my little suffering began after I got into the water.
Uhh... This medicine opens my pores and penetrates my skin... It feels so itchy, even after a year of being a magis soldier, I'm still not completely used to it because I've only used it two or three times in two months.
Even so, I didn't get up from the tub, and continued to submerge myself for 1 minute over and over again.
After about 15 minutes, I hurriedly got out of the tub, and turned the shower back on to rinse off the tub water that was smearing my body.
Aahhh... It felt good.
I glanced into the tub, the water that was originally clear, had now become cloudy. If you looked closely, you would faintly see electricity there.
After I unplugged the water, I continued my shower, and came out naked.
"Dahlia, I told you not to get naked carelessly!"
"I forgot my towel."
I went to the balcony and took my towel that was hanging on the clothesline. Then at that moment, I saw uncle Izrail.
When I waved at him, he looked and suddenly jumped over the wall, then climbed up the balcony railing, and arrived in front of me.
Wow~ he could do it so easily without a battle suit. However...
"What's wrong?"
"No... I was actually just saying hello..."
When I felt awkward, uncle Izrail suddenly pushed aside the wet hair that was covering my face. I looked up and saw his face.
"Senior, have we met before?"
"No. I've never met a cute red-haired girl like you."
"Really?"
"I have no reason to lie. Oh yeah, aren't you embarrassed being naked like this?"
"Actually, I'm a bit embarrassed in front of men. So please don't stare at me for too long."
I covered my nipple and vulva with my hands, and tried to change the subject.
"Senior Izrail, it's almost noon, where are you going?"
"I have a little work to do. So I'll leave you soon so you can get dressed."
After saying that, he immediately dropped down and left the apartment.
"Dahlia, what are you doing standing there? Hurry up and get dressed!"
I quickly put on my towel, and walked inside.
"Where's Leo?"
"I didn't let him out of the room before you got dressed."
Maybe I should hurry up because I think Leo must be hungry.
I quickly dried my hair and body, and chose to wear a tunic tank top since it was summer.
Worked until I was tired, took a shower, then ate. It would be nice to continue with sleep, but I had to make a report for the mission earlier.
After finishing making the report, I immediately went to bed, and prepared for the afternoon. Or for diurnal people, prepare for the next morning.
6 hours passed, I woke up still a little sleepy.
I immediately washed my face, and drank a sip of water before doing gymnastics for 7 or 8 minutes.
Class only started at 6:00 p.m., and I wouldn't be leaving for the academy until 5:30 p.m. So after another sip of water, I used some of the time to study.
Half an hour passed. When I went out and checked if Karen and Leo had finished making breakfast, the doorbell rang and I immediately opened the door after checking through the camera.
"Sis Bella, what's up with you coming at this hour?"
Sis Bella showed me a bag, showing me its contents. I was a little surprised when I saw six bottles of special drinks inside.
"This is a little bonus because I haven't had time lately."
As you might expect, Sis Bella is the producer of this special drink.
These 3 liters will be enough for a week if saved.
I hurriedly went into the room, and exchanged the filled bottles with empty bottles in the bag.
After putting all the special drinks in my mini fridge, I immediately came back and found Sis Bella chatting with Karen.
"Well, I won't disturb your afternoon."
"Are you going straight away?"
"My business with Dahlia is finished."
"Not finished yet."
"I thought you were busy lately too."
"This and that are different matters."
"What are you guys talking about?"
"Are you okay leaving the cooking to Leo?."
"Don't change the subject. And Leo!, I told you not to use high heat!"
"This kind of thing cooks faster."
When Karen's attention started to divert, I immediately pulled sis Bella's hand, and led her out.
"Sis Bella, let's go."
"Be patient, Dahlia."
With that, I left with sis Bella to do our secret activities.
