(MC POV)
"Huuuaaa~ The hot springs of this inn really lives up to its reputation~"
I looked up at the girl that was sighing in contentment as I worked on picking up the towels left by previous guests inside the foyer, realising it was Miss Xiong, the leader of the girls from Heaven Sect.
They were so relaxed that they didn't even notice me from across the room, all of them sporting blissful expressions on their faces.
Our hot springs have special rejuvenating properties after all.
Guests would usually come out to the foyer after their baths to cool down and drink beverages afterwards, which resulted in some towels being left behind when they returned to their rooms.
It was no big deal since all I had to do was to collect them and move them to the laundry basket back outside the baths.
With the towels in hand, I headed towards the hot springs area down the corridor to deposit the towels in the laundry basket.
Right at that moment, a group of guests came out of the male's section of the hot springs.
Coincidentally, it was the group of Practitioners from Pi Gu Sect.
"Ahhh… I can't believe it… How is it possible to have so many hot girls and yet none of them are interested in having a good time?"
"They wouldn't even budge after we offered them so much money too…"
"Well… None of them could really compare to the proprietress though, that woman was stacked!"
Good thing that Manami was currently occupied overseeing the guests' dinner clean up so she wasn't around for them to ogle over.And speaking of my red fox, she seemed to really enjoy this World so far. She was taking her position as the inn's proprietress very seriously and even made a few changes to improve the efficiency and comfort of the staff.
She wasn't even using her divinity to do anything too, limiting herself to what she was capable of back when she was still a normal Practitioner.
Not wanting to deal with these three men from Pi Gu Sect, I simply made it impossible for them to notice my presence and continued what I was doing.
Their leader sighed while walking towards the foyer with his friends, "What do we have to do to score some girls… MAybe we should just resort to desperate measures…"
Honestly, there wasn't exactly a rule here that prohibits the staff from hooking up with the guests. It's just that fox youkais are only interested in their mates so anyone they deem unworthy wouldn't even get a second glance from them.
I followed behind the group a few steps away, none of them noticing my presence as we entered the foyer.
The three girls were still there and we entered just as the lead girl groaned, "Ugh, nothing would be more perfect than getting a massage now. I wonder if there's such a service here?"
Her words were heard by that young master and he quickly turned around to his friends to wiggle his eyebrows suggestively at them. The other two guys got the message and nodded as well to show that they were on board with the idea.
The three men went up to them with plastered-on smiles on their faces.
"Hello ladies! Am I right in assuming that you are looking for a massage?" The young master asked.
The lead girl tilted her head to raise an eyebrow at them, "Hmm? Are you going to introduce us to one?"
"Oh, it just so happens that we are the masseurs of this inn! If you'd like, we can offer our services to you!"
"Ha? You three? I thought all the staff here were fox youkais."
"Oh, not at all! We… Ahem… They needed some professional masseurs so we were hired for the job! So how about it? It's actually complimentary with your stay!"
Ugh… The three girls did not realise that these guys were also guests since the guys were wearing our inn's yukatas and they had their attention focused on me back when they were checking in…
"Complimentary? That sounds a little too good to be true…"
"Ahaha, I suppose it might look that way, but erm… Ah! Master Lin had instructed all of us to take care of you three especially! That's why we're here!"
The girls perked up, "Oh!! As expected of Master Lin! Hmm~ Hmmm~ Very well then, where does the massage take place?"
The young master Heng quickly gestured towards the corridor that led to their own rooms, "Please follow us, we have prepared a room for all of you~"
Not even suspecting a thing, the three girls went with the guys to their room, not noticing how the other two boys were leering at them from behind.
Hmm… Truth be told, this World was basically created by me for my date with Manami so you could say that nothing here was technically real, especially when I would be destroying this World should Manami lose interest in it.
Thus… It really doesn't matter what happens to those three girls that were clearly being strung along by those guys who had less than honest intentions with them.
It would also be really easy for me to make it that nothing happened too, which would just take a simple thought from me to achieve…
But just as I was thinking about what I should do, I felt someone wrap their hand around my arm.
"Ara, ara? What is Master doing standing out here?"
I turned my head to see Manami smiling at me while cuddling her face against my arm.
"Oh, is dinner already finished?"
"Ufufufu~ that's right. All our guests already had their dinners and our girls would be having theirs in shifts in a little while. I wanted to ask if Master wanted to join us?"
I was about to agree when I thought perhaps it would be a better idea to let Manami decide what we should do with those three young men from earlier.
I gave her a quick summary of what happened a few minutes ago and a fire seemed to light up within Manami's eyes.
"Ara? I see~ So those three little boys must be thinking of raping those girls after bringing back to their room, aren't they? In that case… How about we go watch them, Master? Ufufufu~ That would be interesting, don't you think?"
Eh? We're going to watch? Really? I didn't think that Manami was actually a voyeur…
Oh well, as I had said, it's her date after all so let's just roll with it.
