Crossover Anime: A Dimensional Journey Starting with Frilian

"Really? It was you who saved me, Shichen. What happened to me...?" Rem had no recollection of what had just happened.

“You’ve turned into a demon,” Ram said directly.

"Demonization? I see..."

Rem suddenly realized, her eyes filled with desolation: "I really am useless at everything, I can't even control my demon form..."

"What are you talking about?" Shi Chen interrupted her.

"You were so cool and amazing just now! You took down so many monsters in one go, that's incredible!"

Shichen gave her a thumbs up.

"I...I'm amazing?" Rem was stunned.

"Yes, that's amazing! Do you remember what I just said? I like you even more now."

"I...no, I'm not that good, my sister is much better." Rem shook her head and denied it.

"..."

Shi Chen looked at her speechlessly: "You did all of this just now, what does it have to do with your sister?"

"What I can do, my sister can do too."

“No, I can’t do what you just did. Rem, you’re much better than me,” Ram retorted seriously.

"How could that be? If my sister is like me..." Rem hesitated, unable to finish her sentence.

“I am not the same as you. I am a hornless one, and even Mana cannot heal itself. How can we be the same?”

"That's because..."

"Wait, what does 'hornless' mean?" Shichen interrupted the excited Rem, pretending not to understand and asking Ram.

“It means exactly what it says, I don’t have horns,” Ram replied calmly.

"I think I asked a question I shouldn't have."

"Why?" Ram asked in return, puzzled.

"You and Rem are oni, right? Shouldn't that horn be very important? Without the horn... isn't there some hidden reason?" Shichen asked cautiously.

"Don't worry, I stopped caring a long time ago," Ram replied calmly.

"You really are powerful, unlike Rem, who still cares about your horn. No wonder she always says she can't compare to you." Shichen seized the opportunity to expose Rem's true feelings without hesitation.

“I…” Rem couldn’t refute it and lowered her head.

"Now is not the time to worry about this. Let's go back first. It's so late, Emilia will be worried. I'll give you a good talking to when we get back." Shichen rubbed Rem's head to comfort her.

"You don't need to worry about that. Lady Emilia came along too; she's in the village," Ram replied.

"What? Then let's get out of here quickly." Shichen grabbed Rem and hurried towards the exit.

"Speaking of which, Ram, what brings you here?"

"With such a commotion here, how could we not have noticed? Lady Emilia is very worried about you."

"Wouldn't that mean the mansion would be deserted?"

"Don't worry, Lord Rotswaal has returned, and Lady Beatrice is here too."

"Right."

They chatted briefly along the way and soon returned to the village, where a graceful silver figure stood waiting expectantly at the entrance.

"Shichen! Rem! Are you alright?" Emilia excitedly greeted them.

"Do I look like something's wrong?" Shi Chen asked Emilia as she approached, then turned around to show himself.

He was completely unharmed, and his body was spotless, without any blood or dust on it.

It was as if he hadn't done anything, but Rem next to him was different.

“But Rem doesn’t look... alright.” Emilia looked at Rem in disbelief, her eyes filled with worry.

"Lady Emilia, I'm fine. The blood on my body is from a magical beast," Rem explained softly.

"That's good......"

Emilia breathed a sigh of relief, then immediately asked, "Monsters? What's this about monsters?"

"Don't be nervous, it's all resolved, nothing to worry about," Shi Chen comforted her, patting her shoulder.

"How could nothing be wrong? Tell me now! Don't hide it from me!" Emilia glared at Shichen with displeasure.

"Okay, okay, let's talk on the way back. Rem and I want to get back and take a shower as soon as possible." Toki raised his hand in surrender.

“That’s more like it… but we might not be able to go back for now.” Emilia said, stepping aside. Behind her were Petra and the other children, as well as villagers.

"Big brother! Are you alright?"

After receiving some thanks, and despite the slight delay, they quickly returned to the mansion.

Rotzwaal greeted them at the gate of the mansion.

I've already explained the situation to Emilia on the way here. As for explaining to Roswaal, I'll leave it to Ram.

Anyway, this was her job.

Esther and Betty were rather carefree, completely unconcerned about whether he was alright or not.

Although he knew that the two of them completely trusted him, at least they could throw themselves into his arms when they came back.

The two little girls throwing themselves into my arms truly swept away all fatigue.

After Ram prepared the bathwater, Shichen went to the luxurious large bathroom to take a bath by himself.

The bathroom was ridiculously large and incredibly spacious, with a bathtub that looked like it was made of marble.

It can be used by both men and women, but after each person finishes using the bath, they will luxuriously drain the hot water and refill it, perfectly demonstrating the wastefulness of the nobility. But what kind of rich person is he if he doesn't enjoy himself?

The bathroom was filled with steam. Naturally, this world didn't have any heating system; it used fire-attribute magic ore.

Nothing is impossible, only unimaginable.

Without hesitation, Shichen stepped into the bath, slowly immersing himself in the hot water until it reached his chest, and sat on the edge of the pool.

Enveloped in hot water, all fatigue vanished, and my mind and body relaxed.

Although he wasn't tired.

However, taking a bath is not something Shichen likes to do unless someone is with her.

He would like to take Esther with him for a bath; that would be absolutely wonderful. But Betty would definitely come along too.

Taking a bath with Betty is fine, but she'll definitely cause trouble, and Esther might even provoke her into doing something.

This won't work.

He didn't want to feel bad.

After soaking for a while, just as Shichen was about to leave, he heard footsteps outside.

Thump-thump, the newcomer clearly made no attempt to hide himself, and was barefoot at that.

Shi Chen hadn't confirmed the other person's identity. In this mansion, it wouldn't matter who came, and he even wondered if Betty had come secretly.

However, when he entered the bathroom, he turned around and saw her face, and was stunned for a moment.

"Rem?"

"Yes." Rem nodded and slowly walked over.

Shi Chen couldn't help but glance at her again, because she was only wearing a bath towel.

The bath towel covered all of her breasts, but her exposed collarbone was eye-catching. It covered half of her thighs, and her calves were just right, with a slightly chubby look.

The bath towel was white, but Rem's skin was even whiter, with a pinkish glow.

She was clearly not as calm as her tone, and so was her complexion, which had a faint pink tinge to her cheeks.

"Rem, what brings you here?" Shichen couldn't help but ask.

She had thought of several people, but she never expected it to be Rem.

"I...I'll give you a back rub, Shichen." Rem came to the edge of the pool, lowered her head, and answered softly.

"...Could it be that Ram taught you to do this?" Shichen was not happy; instead, he frowned.

"No... I came here of my own accord."

Shi Chen's brows relaxed: "You knew I was here?"

"Hmm..." Rem's ears started to turn red.

"To repay a debt?"

"Yes......"

“I haven’t done anything that makes you need to repay me like this.”

"No, I couldn't have done anything if it weren't for you." Rem looked up, her face flushed, and stared intently at Tokichi.

"You don't need to repay me like this, do you? You should know what this means, right?"

"Please, please rest assured, I'm not doing this to repay you. I genuinely want to do it, and I think it will make you happy."

"Anyone would be happy," Shi Chen honestly admitted.

"That's good." Rem breathed a sigh of relief; under the towel, the bulge in her breasts was clearly visible.

Her figure is indeed better than Ram's.

"Since you've said so, then I won't pretend anymore." Shichen said, turning around, sitting up straight, and turning his back to Rem.

"Yes!" Rem was overjoyed. As the time approached, she knelt by the pool and tremblingly reached out her hands to press on his back.

Shichen didn't react, but she felt a tremor in her heart.

She had never been in contact with a man before, and Shichen's back was completely different from her sister's, both in appearance and touch.

Rem took a deep breath, calmed herself, and began massaging Toki's shoulders to relax his body.
