The hot spring pool was quite small, with a diameter of only two or three meters. After Lanice stepped in, she could only sit very close to him, so close that even the slightest movement would almost make them touch.

If it were a man, that would've been fine, but it was the opposite sex... and neither of them wore anything. Lynch found it mildly offensive.

Compared to his internal conflict, Lanice seemed much more at ease. As if noticing his discomfort, she explained, "The Odor Removal Soup can get rid of the scent on your body, but that alone isn't enough to fool those stupid dogs' noses. You'll need to pick up some of the scents from here as well. And honestly, there's nothing more suitable than my scent."

After a brief pause, she added with a teasing tone, "We're Wizards, not ordinary men and women of the Mortal World. Don't tell me you're going to act like some prudish moral guardian?"
