“Anything in particular you’re looking at?” Gaia asked teasingly.

Rael shrugged. “Dunno. For someone so ancient, your breasts sure are big.”

She raised a brow in confusion. “What’s that supposed to mean?”

“Don’t get me wrong, I love big-chested women, but after so many years, doesn’t it feel like you’re just carrying around some extra weight? I’d assume you’d want your breasts to be a little smaller… Given the practicality of it all, you know?” Rael replied with as much honesty as he could muster.

In the blink of an eye, he had pretty much defused all the romantic tension that had been building up with this silly question. Did he regret it? Not really. After all, in the brief moment that his words surprised her, she lowered her arms, allowing Rael to catch a good look at her breasts.

And to say that all his stress disappeared the moment he saw her breasts would be an understatement. Realizing that too, Gaia just sighed, realizing that she had been played.

“Do these flesh bags really arouse you so?” Gaia asked, and Rael nodded.

“It’d be weird to not be aroused by them. I’m a man, after all.”

And she was an avoidant woman who, after realizing what kind of situation she had gotten herself in, now began to second-guess whether what she was doing was right. After all, she had dragged him here and essentially gotten naked in front of him.

Obviously, since both of them were in the hot spring, it wasn’t that lewd. In fact, she could tell Rael was pretty damn relaxed given the situation. Though, his manhood told a different story.

Not that she cared much. If anything, this was relaxing enough for them to have a heart-to-heart minus all the lustful thoughts. After all, if all he needed to relieve his stress was to see her breasts, then Gaia didn’t mind in the slightest.

And so, with a wave of her hand, she got rid of the remainder of the fog, allowing him to take a good look at her E-cup breasts.

Only then did he realize that her nipples were inverted. They looked pretty cute, and if they were any closer, Rael wouldn’t hesitate to explore. Alas, he kept his sanity in check, and with another thought, went ahead and leaned back further, relaxing.

“To be honest, I’m not sure where to go with my life now,” Rael said.

Hearing the same story once again, Gaia scolded him:

“What’s the problem now? You’re strong enough, handsome enough, and evidently happy enough. So why do you once again seek answers for things that don’t concern the current you? Only people who don’t have everything make goals for the future.”

She narrowed her eyes.

“You already have everything, so if I hear you say that once more, I’m unfortunately going to have to get hands-on and beat you up.”

Hearing that, Rael let out a chuckle. “What if I just said that to make you talk to me?”

“Huh? You’re not bad at conversing with others, so why the need to frustrate me to do so?” Gaia replied.

“Well, it doesn’t hurt to have conversations without purpose sometimes, eh?” Rael said, then added, “In my opinion, the two of us should relax more. I shit talk a lot and stress daily. As for you, you’re too stiff to even imagine relaxing. So ignore my lust-filled gazes, and just try to have fun, okay?”

Trying to bone someone on the first date was a bit intriguing, but Rael wasn’t that into it. Instead, he wanted her to feel good, so he reached into the Premium Shop and bought several refreshments.

Afterward, he floated them through the water until they eventually reached Gaia. She stared at them for a moment. It was a floating martini and a couple of sandwiches in a glass dome-like disk, which she went ahead and unveiled and began eating.

As for Rael, he did the same. Having a human-like body was fun, realistic, and it made sense, since that was what he was used to. Plus, not having any urge to eat was really disturbing.

So with his newfound powers, Rael restored his bodily functions and began eating the delicious food until he was full. As for Gaia, she did the same, enjoying the warmth of the hot springs.

After 20 minutes of eating, both of them were done, and now, they just lazed around there, both of them admiring each other’s bodies.

“Hmm… Is it weird that I thought you had three nipples?” Rael said.

Gaia raised a brow. “You thought I had three nipples…? That’s a first. Is it because of my moles?” She glanced down, touching the three moles that were all in one place, on the left of her left nipple.

“Yeah, that. They look interesting?”

“Pfft. Well, want to hear something funny? These moles are as sensitive as my nipples. It’s just that playing around with them is a little… Well, odd. I feel grossed out because of the texture,” Gaia said.

Rael sighed. “Yeah yeah. Keep teasing me. By the way, I did try to look into your mind a little. Correct me if I’m wrong, but you’re not really aroused by me, are you?”

She stared at him for a moment, then shrugged. “I like some aspects of you, but at the moment… It’s just affection. Romantically, I don’t feel like I’ve got the capacity for something like that.”

Without wasting a beat, Rael straightened his back and swam over to Gaia. She was a little bit surprised to see him that up close, but before she knew it, he had both of his hands on her shoulders.

Despite her being completely naked in front of him, he didn’t look down at her breasts. Instead, he looked straight into her eyes, which she found oddly sweet.

“Look, I don’t want to be corny or anything, but everyone has the capacity for romance. Sure, some people might have a harder time falling for someone, but if, within that capacity, you feel like you have room for someone to try, then I’d like to be that someone.”
