After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World - Chapter 406

Chapter 406: Massage
Meanwhile, while the sky was high above the sky, some ambiguous sounds echoed inside a villa bedroom.

“Uhmn… Yes, wife, like that…

“Hmm…” A soft sigh echoed in the room, baritone voice oozing with sexiness.

The groan was followed closely by a chuckle.

“Who told you not to warm up before a spar?” Althea smiled, continuing to massage her husband’s stiff shoulder.

“It’s a bit uncomfortable,” he said, looking sadly at his wife. The big man was like a huge dog asking for pity.

If his men saw him like this, they would be shocked to the point of aneurysm.

The captain they knew would not bat an eyelid when he was covered with blood. Now he was making ambiguous noises for a little stiff arm…

However, it worked, because Althea’s heart broke a little and she kissed his cheek to comfort him.

She then lifted her head up before he could catch her for a deeper kiss, continuing with the task at hand. Her soft hands caressed his wide shoulder, making him feel hot, but he knew not to take advantage at this time.

Althea added a bit more strength, her soft delicate fingers kneading the soft knots that had formed in his muscles.

She smiled as the tension in his muscles melted under her touch, and his eyes shut as her skilled fingers did its magic.

This magic also sent a lot of heat somewhere else.

Garan tilted his head a bit to look at her, obviously concentrating on giving him comfort. He smiled and used his arm to pull her on his lap, immediately meeting her lips with his.

“You—”

But she wasn’t able to speak anymore as her voice was muffled by his tongue. His large hand rubbed her soft waist and his tongue lapped the inside of her mouth, hungry.

Her struggles quickly died down as she surrendered under his onslaught. She was only alerted when she felt his rough hands inside her shirt, creeping up her perk mounds.

A breathless Althea glared at her husband. “You…” She also held his naughty hands to stop them from moving. “It’s so early in the afternoon!”

She stood up before he could do anything. “I need to check the pharmacy! And the kids by the way.” She said, and scurried outside the door.

Garan chuckled as he stood up, following closely after his shy wife.

…

Bath House

For the next few hours, the girls passed through the different packages.

The first part of the package was the relaxing saunas and steam baths. This was another new feature that was not found in the bathhouses that they had been to.

The women were curious and asked the attendant if she had an idea how this was done, and it so happened that she did.

Apparently, they used the hot steam from the pool and got it to this room. It was hot, but Juni said it helped soften up the skin. The attendant smiled and continued with her trivia—something they were trained to do while being hired.

“It is also a good way to detoxify, a way for the body to eliminate toxins. The less dirt, the nicer the skin will be as well,” The attendant explained, “The heat also causes blood vessels to dilate, improving blood flow. With improved blood flow, the cells would be more oxygenated and thus promote the delivery of nutrients to the skin.”

The two girls made a mental note of this. To be honest, even the concept of veins was new to them, let alone whatever ‘oxygenation’ was, but they didn’t question it much.

What they did know was that this steam was very good for their health and beauty.

They also went through a Mud Bath. It was a really novel thing and they genuinely considered whether to go through with it or not. Fortunately for them, there was an assistant who was assigned to them—someone sent by the people above, apparently—who explained the functions to them.

“This is not normal mud, miladies, it’s special mud specifically formulated for baths, beauty, and health~

“Mud baths have the functions of skin detoxification, as mud is known to have absorbent properties. When it dries out later, it will take with it excess oils, dried skin cells, and other debris. You will definitely feel refreshed!

“It is also great for exfoliation, mineral absorption, skin hydration, and muscle relaxation~!”

Anyway, the attendant sold it hard and they were rare adventurous girls so they did try it out in the end.

It was a bit gross at first but they really came out refreshed and smoother.

“Wow, this is really nice~” Veronica exclaimed as she stretched her arms, feeling like a newborn. Juni chuckled, “There is still a lot to see.”

“What are we waiting for then?”

The girls were guided by the attendant to head somewhere else. They passed the outdoor facilities with gardens for meditation and yoga.

“Yoga?”

They watched as a few women followed the leading one, stretching in odd ways. “Looks painful.”

Juni laughed and didn’t force them to try. Yoga… was something that had to be eased into.

However, the attendant had a special mission from ‘above’: Entice the rich aborigines with everything!

Imagine how surprised all the staff were when a system mission appeared on their screens a few hours ago!

She cleared her throat, “We can choose the milder exercise, but I suggest you take on yoga~ It’s really good for you!

“First of all, the poses will help your body improve flexibility and strength. It will also help with balance and coordination, posture improvement, and joint health. Certain dynamic styles also help with cardiovascular health!” she paused, “For the psyche, yoga had been known to reduce stress and anxiety and overall just worth it!”

Who could say no to such a passionate hard-sell?

Cassandra was fine due to her skill exercise since young, but Veronica obviously struggled.

However, while a bit sore, they really did feel refreshed in the end.

“Finally, massage! This is best because you just did yoga, which is a great combination!” The attendant continued to chipper, “It’s been studied to be complementary ways to enhance relaxation, reduce muscle tension, and promote overall well-being!”

“Are you fine with massage? Complete strangers will touch your naked body. Female of course.” She said, worried the culture here is conservative.

The two girls looked at each other, before nodding. So far, everything had been really good! They didn’t think this massage was horrible!

The concept was indeed very new and they were intimidated. But it would be such a pity not to experience it.

And they were right. Although it was really awkward at first, when the women touched the knots in their bodies, gently squeezing them out, the women couldn’t help but moan.

Again, if men were here, they’d create ponds with their nosebleeds.

Anyway, the massage successfully melted away the stress, relieved their muscle tension, and left them feeling like new women!

It was amazing!

Juni giggled and felt a bit proud, “There are also plenty of benefits in massages. They improve circulation, reduce anxiety, and give better sleep.”

“It’s amazing.”

“There are also plenty of massages, this is just the basic aromatherapy. You can explore the others on your own.”

“Hmmm~”

Speaking of aroma—these were really good! They were so intimidated by the new experience that they didn’t notice. Now that they were relaxed enough, they finally noticed the subtle fragrance that surrounded them.

They had no doubt their current states had a lot to do with it.

“Wow… this smells really good,” Veronica said, and she noticed a lot has been coming from her own skin!

“It’s essential oil, formulated by Ms. Althea,” Juni said, relaxing as the massage woman focused on her shoulder

“She had a factory line solely dedicated to these…”

“Amazing… I hear her name everywhere.” Veronica said with a voice filled with awe. Juni nodded, feeling proud that a woman was doing so much for humanity, much more than her male counterparts.

“Altera—wouldn’t be the same without her,” she said, “In my opinion, she’s the most well-deserved elder.”

The two turned their heads to Juni as they were being massaged, voices a little muffled as they were facing down.

“Are you close with her? You mentioned you were a… trialist? I truly want to meet her.”

Juni didn’t answer immediately and her eyes glazed a bit in thought.

“Well, we’re just acquaintances for now. However, to get to my goal…” she began vaguely, “I’ll need her approval.”

Gill saw her as a respected sister. If she were to gain her approval, Gill would definitely soften his attitude to her.

The other two didn’t really understand and they didn’t care anymore when the massage women hit particularly sweet spots.

“This feels so good..”

“Uh-hmnn…” Cassandra gasped, “Ohhh~”

“Oh my.. Hnn~”

This must be the most relaxed they had ever been.

Especially Cassandra who had been going through stressful months—from the issue with her family and her ambiguous relationship with Gill.

Massages are amazing!
