*Early morning at the Saou Hotel in Ryan Town, Genesis Barris Kingdom

Ella seemed to hear something in her sleep.

——That was the sound of something rubbing against each other slightly.

She didn't want to pay attention to the noise, but when her consciousness was hazy, she remembered the source of the sound. She opened her eyes, turned over and got up from the temporary bed, and found that the girl on the bed was wrapping the bed sheet in a ball and hugging it to her chest. Her whole body was curled up and her long purple hair was trembling slightly.

Was she awake or having a nightmare? Ella didn't know. She walked over and tried to pull out the sheets and re-make the bed. However, the moment she pulled the sheets from the girl's hands—

“No, no!”

The girl buried her head in the bed sheets and begged Ella to stop.

Ella was at a loss for words. She had no experience dealing with girls, and the people she spoke with most were her mother and sister. What should she say in this situation?

Try to comfort the girl in a gentle tone.

"It's okay now. I won't hurt you."

I have to say, this body of mine looks pretty good. However, the girl didn't react and still buried her head in the balled-up quilt.

Ella thought of the male protagonist in the game she had played before. Shouldn't he hug the girl at a time like this?

After hesitating for a while, thinking of the girl's appearance last night, sympathy surged up again. He half-lay on the bed and hugged the girl in an awkward posture.

"It's okay. No one will bully you anymore. From now on, I will be your new master. My name is Elelaya. Just call me Ela."

Feeling that the girl in front of her had stopped trembling, Ella couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and secretly thanked her in her heart, it turned out that this method really worked.

"May I have your name?"

After trying to communicate with the girl but getting no response, Ella sensed something was wrong.

The girl didn't stop trembling, but her whole body tensed, as if in extreme tension, and she couldn't move. Her plan had failed.

It was clearly a well-intentioned consolation, but this was the effect it had. This made Ella feel a little lonely. She let go of the girl in her arms, walked silently towards the door, and left the bedroom.

I slept too late and woke up too early, so I couldn't help but feel a little sleepy. I stretched and walked to the first floor of the hotel, which was deserted because it was so early.

"Auntie, do you have porridge?"

"Yes, we just cooked it. How much do you need?"

"Two bowls."

"Princess, can you finish it all by yourself?"

"Princess? Are you talking about me?"

Ella was a little surprised after hearing what the aunt said.

"Yes, besides you, I have never seen anyone who embodies the term 'princess' more."

"Ahaha, is that so... I'm not a princess, okay? Don't call me that."

"No, that's the name everyone recognized yesterday. Please accept it."

Ella could only continue to laugh dryly. Then she remembered the girl in the room and whispered to the aunt

"There's a patient in my room who's not feeling well enough to come out. Can I bring this into the room?"

She secretly handed a silver coin to the aunt. This was the most suitable price Ella knew so far.

Seeing the silver coins that Ella handed over, the proprietress quickly pushed Ella's hand back.

"That's not necessary. Last time we didn't let the princess bring food to the room because no one was familiar with her, and there were too many people at the time, so it was difficult to make an exception. Now there are fewer people, and if everyone knew it was the princess who brought the food to the room, they wouldn't say anything. It's better to say that the princess staying here is a sign of our business, and we should pay you."

"Well then... thank you for your help."

The aunt smiled and handed over a plate with two bowls of porridge. Ella took the plate and returned to the room.

The girl was still in bed, but now she seemed to have recovered a little. She no longer hugged the sheets, but sat on the bed and looked at Ella standing at the door.

When Ella realized that the girl was looking at her, she was startled, then tried hard to smile.

"Have you recovered a bit?"

"My name is... Lu... Luty..."

The girl stammered out her name, probably answering the question she had asked at the beginning.

"Lotte, right? You haven't eaten in a long time, right? You can only adapt to it by eating porridge, otherwise your stomach will not be able to bear it."

Using the knowledge he had learned before, he placed the porridge and spoon on the small table beside the bed.

Lotte just looked at him with a longing look, not touching the porridge on the table. Noticing something strange, Ella tilted her head in confusion, put down the spoon she was about to take her first bite, and looked at Lotte.

"What's wrong? You don't want to eat?"

"I haven't...yet... given permission..."

"You don't need my permission, just do what you want."

When Ella saw Lotte's timid look, she felt an indescribable mix of emotions.

There was no movement. The girl named Lotte still didn't touch the bowl of porridge, so Ella had no choice but to compromise.

"Okay, I order you to drink this bowl of porridge."

He spoke the command in the softest tone possible.

The girl finally reached out her hand slowly towards the bowl of porridge, holding it with trembling hands, making it seem as if she would drop it at any moment. At the same time, she looked at Ella to see if she would move. That was the fear of being beaten that was unique to someone who had been abused for a long time. Without using a spoon, she put the bowl directly to her mouth, took a small sip, and after the porridge slid down her throat, she paused, then drank it down in one gulp.

"Ah! Cough, cough, cough, cough."

Then, because he drank too fast, he vomited the porridge he had drunk. The porridge overflowed from the corner of his mouth and dripped onto his originally clean pajamas. He didn't even hold the bowl and turned it upside down on the bed.

Ruthie quickly rolled off the bed, fell to the ground on all fours, coughed violently, and kowtowed to apologize while trembling.

"Ahem, ahem, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I won't, ahem, do it again, I'm sorry, sorry, sorry, forgive me, I will never do it again, I will never-"

The frightened Ruthie touched the softest part of her heart. Before Ruthie could continue speaking, Ella grabbed Ruthie's shoulders with both hands and held her in her arms.

"It's okay, I won't hit you. Forget your fear, it doesn't matter. Don't worry, I will protect you from now on."

For a moment, Lotte was speechless, feeling Ella's heartbeat. The scene froze for a few seconds, and then -

Lotte's eyes widened a little, her lips trembled slightly, tears slowly filled her orange-red eyes, she closed her lips tightly, cried softly, then opened her mouth wide and burst into tears, tears streaming down her neck uncontrollably.

Ella changed her position, hugged Lotte's head, and gently stroked Ella's hair.

"It's okay. From now on you will be under my protection and no one will abuse you anymore."

The crying continued, but it became a choked whimper, and gradually, the sound became quieter. As if regaining her spirits, Lotte looked at Ella.

"Thank you...thank you...for saying that."

Ella just continued to stroke Ruthie's head without saying anything. She didn't know what to say. She just wondered why she didn't save her earlier. Even though there was nothing she could do, it still tormented Ella's heart.

Lotte slowly left Ella's embrace. Seeing that Ella's robe was completely stained by her, she apologized with a choked sob.

"Yes, I'm sorry. I soiled your clothes..."

"This? I don't really care. I just thought it would be better if I could have rescued you sooner."

Ella was immersed in blaming herself.

The girl seemed to want to say something more, probably to tell herself not to complain, but Ella quickly spoke up to stop the girl.

"Get up first. I'll ask the boss to clean up here. Come with me downstairs to take a shower and change clothes. I'll ask the boss's wife to make another bowl of porridge."

"Okay, okay."

Ella stood up, supported Lotte, and walked out of the room.

Chapter 17 The loli girl Elelaya turned on a strange switch!

Although Lotte tried to walk down the stairs by herself, it looked so forced, so Ella continued to support Lotte.

Lotte looked very apologetic, with her brows lowered.

"Auntie, is there a place to take a shower in the hotel?"

Ella asked the proprietress who was tending the tables on the first floor.

Seeing the dirt on Ella's clothes and that she was supporting a dirty girl with red and swollen eyes, the customers on the first floor started talking about it.

"Yes, there's a bathroom in the back of the first floor. It's small, but it should be enough for the princess and the little sister next to her. The water is hot all day long."

"Okay, thank you, Auntie."

Ella thanked the proprietress. Ruthie leaned close to Ella, bowed slightly, and followed Ella to the back of the first floor.

So, what should she do next? Seeing the word "Bathroom" written on the door, Ella felt a little worried. Should they go in together? She might be a woman on the outside, but she was a man on the inside! Just two people going in together... for Ella, a virgin on the inside, it was a bit too much. While she wasn't a lolita fan and had no particular interest in skinny bodies, she was a living, breathing young woman, right?

Made up my mind.

"Lotte, you go in first. I'll wait until you're done washing before I go in."

"But... letting the slave go in first... would be detrimental to the master's dignity..."

"It's okay, it's okay, just go in."

Lotte looked at herself, then raised her head to look at Ella, her tone seemed to harden.

"Please... please, Master, please go in first."

Ella originally wanted to continue persuading Lotte to go in first, but when she saw Lotte's determined eyes that she had never seen before, she couldn't help but give up what she wanted to say.

"Oh, really, I'll be out soon. Just wait here for a while. If you need anything, knock on the door and call me."

"Yes, that's right."

Ruthie seemed a little happier and sat down next to the door.

After instructing Lotte again, Ella opened the door and entered the bathroom.

-------------------------------------

"How come there are such comprehensive facilities in this other world?"

Looking at the scene in front of her, Ella even doubted whether this was her original world.

The bathroom is divided into two parts. One is a bathtub about two meters long and wide, and the other is a bathing area with a stool and a polished metal mirror.

"Isn't this really District 11..."

Thinking that if she took it seriously, she would lose, Ella sat down on the stool as if giving up, took off the clothes that were stained by Lotte's tears and snot, and began to wash them.

"Come to think of it, I don't react at all when I see my own body. Is it because my body is too pitiful to interest me? I always feel a little sad. I'm obviously a man, but I'm not interested in naked girls..."

Fill a small bucket with water and rinse it over your upper body, feeling the hot water flowing through your body.

"Is this supposed to be something like soap?"

I saw a dark green mass under the mirror. I tried to smell it, but it had no smell.

“How should I put it—I’m a little hesitant to use it…”

Enduring the physical and psychological discomfort, Ella picked up the soap-like substance and rubbed it on her hands. Except that it had no smell, it worked like soap and produced some foam.

Reassured, Ella quickly washed and soaked in the bathtub.

Looking at my snow-white thighs soaking in the water, I couldn't help but pinch them with my hands. Apart from the nice touch, I didn't have any strange thoughts. It was as if I had gotten used to this body a long time ago.

"How should I put it, magic really feels magical..."

With her hands on the edge of the bathtub, Ella was half lying in the bathtub. Her white twin ponytails had long been untied and scattered in the bathtub. Because of her petite body, the bathtub seemed very large.

"A lot has happened in just one day... Should I be surprised at my ability to adapt? No, a normal person wouldn't be able to do that. Is it because I've played so many games before? Or is it the influence of my level-correction mental power? Well, I'll just adapt, that's all."

His eyes wandered to the ceiling, thinking about the future, and then he suddenly sat up straight in the bathtub.

"Ah! That gambler! What happened to him? He's not crazy, is he? We need to go check him out right away. And Lotte, since he doesn't have any thoughts about women, it's okay for Lotte to come in, right? Lotte? Lotte?"

Finally, he called out to Lotte who was sitting outside the door.

Ruthie's soft voice came from the other side of the door.

"Master, what happened?"

Her speech became fluent, it seemed that her mood had recovered. Lotte's adaptability was even stronger than hers, Ella thought to herself.
