Netori: Stealing The Hero's Party!

Chapter 79: Life At A Farm - Part 2

As everyone gathered around the log dining, a trail of sweet and spicy aroma fiddled into their heads. Following the hints with their eyes, the group stared at Rose putting in the final touches to the meal inside the kitchen. Swaying side to side with a playful hum, the virgin mother of one beamed happily at the thought of her son's friends enjoying the meal packed with love.

"I'm done!" She announced, picking up the massive pot of goat and vegetable stew. Quickly rushing over to the table, she put it in the very middle before blowing at her burning hands. "Etetetee! I forgot to use the cloth."

Despite being burned, she laughed the matter off. Rushing to the kitchen again, but this time with Erika in her tow to help, she grabbed the rest of the dishes and brought them to the table for everyone to enjoy eating. Once everything had been gathered in the dining, Rose also slipped back into her chair and glanced at everyone across the table.

"This smells so goodddd~" Almost on the verge of crying with her chin resting on the table, Aria couldn't help but drool at the scent alone.

"Aria, be proper," lifting the dark elf off the table by her shoulder, Erika turned to Rose and apologetically bowed. "She's just weird sometimes, I'm sorry."

"I don't mind, ahaha," smiling with the same joy as ever, Rose leaned back into her chair and gestured with her hands for everyone to dig into the meal.

And soon right after, the clatter of silverware sang a chaotic cacophony. Wolfing down the savory stew with meat so tender it melted in their mouths, or tearing into well-seasoned chicken legs that made their taste buds dance, and as if the meat wasn't enough of a treat, the sauteed veggies packed with contrasting flavors just hit the right spot on the soul.

"Here you go, Erika," pouring a light glass of fermented corn alcohol to the priestess, Rose poured herself a glass as well. As for the other, they had to settle with freshly squeezed orange juice with a dash of lime.

After the meal was done with everyone's bellies tight as they can be, Rose asked them to put the dishes by the sink while she went to check up on the open bath. Made out of an encirclement of rocks inscribed with fire magic, the pool was designed to heat up the water every day within an hour or so of being touched.

Surrounded by a tall wall of wood, the pool had a nice view of the setting sun or the glistening moon depending on the time.

"We're not going in together, are we?" Mel asked the moment they were finished putting the dishes into the sink.

"Why? What's the problem?" Squinting her eyes, Aria looked at her with visible confusion. "We can just wrap a towel around our bodies if you're so worried about being naked in front of everyone."

"T-that's probably better," Amedith affirmed, not wanting to be naked or see their naked bodies as it was bound to make him feel some sort of way.

'That should help hide the chastity for us both too…' He thought, glancing sideways at Mel. Knowing what was going on inside each other's heads, the two nodded at the suggestion made by the dark elf.

'We used to bathe together as kids at the orphanage, didn't we?' With a light blush on her face, Erika was reminded of all those playful memories of being butt-naked around each other. 'Still, it would be weird to do it now.'

'Damn it, I was looking forward to seeing Rose's boobs…' Unlike the priestess, Aria was regretting blurting out her own suggestion. But with everyone agreeing to it, it was far too late to go back on her words.

Not long after the conversation, Rose came back from the pool to get everyone ready for a dip. Without wasting much time, the party changed into a pair of towels and made their way to the mystically heated open-view spring.

"This is too tight," Erika complained to herself right before joining Rose inside the pool.

Staring daggers into her back, Mel and Aria wanted to shove her into the water. However, keeping their anger at bay, the two followed Erika's lead and quickly got inside as well. Being the last one to get changed, mostly because of the embarrassment of being naked under the towel, Amedith walked up to the pool.

Turning to look at him with only a towel wrapped around him, a weird flush washed up across their faces. As delicate as a teen girl under those clothes, his skin bloomed like a star under the moon's silver light. Their eyes moving up and down his frame, the girls couldn't tell if he was a he or just a young girl with short hair.

"W-what?!" He yelped, creeped out by their leering gaze.

"You look so cute my baby~" Moving past the others, Rose reached for Amedith's hand and slowly guided him into the water. "Lemme do your hair like I used to okay? I brought the comb and that special soap that we used to clean up your hair."

Planting a kiss on his cheeks, Rose had him blushing red.

"Mom, don't do that in front of everyone!" Even though he complained, Rose didn't let him get away from her grasp.

Guiding her son into her corner, she had him rest his sit down on her lap and rest his head against her towel. Like a cushion made of clouds, Amedith's head slightly sunk into Rose's breasts–making the hero's body turn into a rosy red. And even though Ameidth wanted to get up and escape, with the stiffness under the towel he couldn't risk being his caged boner to be noticed by the girls.

"You know," splashing some water over Amedith's head, Rose grabbed the comb and began running it through his hair. "When I first saw him at the orphanage, I thought he was a girl, and to be honest I never realized that wasn't the case until I showered with him for the first time."

"M-mom, don't tell them stuff like tha–" Before he could finish his words, Rose aggressively brushed her cheeks against her son.

"Don't be such a prude, my little girl~" Planting a kiss on his temples, Rose unintentionally embarrassed Amedith some more.

'Girl?' Thought the rest, not knowing that Rose loved teasing her son that way.
