Chapter 1134: The Lovely Angel

The country of Osium is a tiny country with a population of fifty thousand mixed races, the primary race of course is the humans.0

Bordered between a mountain range to the North, a small mountain range to the South, huge cliffs to the East, and tall mountains to the West, the country of Osium mainly lives off crafting, carpeting, and tourism.

Osium itself is mainly covered in tundras and has a snowy climate, which has led to a closely gathered population, despite the number of people, which means most of them to live in metropolises.

The country's landscape is gloomy; fierce rock formations, collapsing fjords, and wild rivers are just a sliver of the misery Osium has to offer, which is why the country is a skipped destination among foreigners.

The people of Osium are reserved towards foreigners and tend to welcome them with resentment. They feel foreigners could further delay the country's well-being.

Osium has stern laws and law enforcement, which is to be expected. The people are troubled due to the lack of food variety, caused by the recent war and monster outbreak.

This is also reflected in the country's flag, which has a moon and two stars on a background in yellow, dark yellow, and dark purple. Their coat of arms is a spider surrounded by stripes.

The missing girls were sent to this place by Elseria (Typhania) to investigate and provide assistance.

It was night and the sky's as dark as it can get.

The pale moonlight felt like a thin sash the earth wore and it dyed everything in a beautiful luster. Silver stars dotted the sky, blinking high up in the sky intermittently, it looked like the stars changed position each time one lit up or dimmed down.

There are no clouds in the sky so everybody can get an unobstructed view of the sky if they look up.

The forest was huge, dark, and thriving. Its canopy was dominated by juniper, cottonwood, and rowan, and sparkling light dancing between the branches allowed for a diversity of bushes to make use of the boulder-covered grounds below.

Coiling creepers waved from most trees, and a variety of flowers, which grew in abundance, added more life to the otherwise unvarying terrain.

A discord of beastly noises, belonging mostly to small creatures, echoed in the air, and were in harmony with the occasional sounds of birds of prey gliding in the air.

The moon and the star also gave the Ancient Forest a gentle glow, including the tents of the forward operating base stationed here.

Incidentally, the astral light also lit up a lake that was just the right size.

The Lake was situated at a rather remote corner of the base. Tall walls are sealing off three of the four cardinal directions. There's only a tiny path leading to this place from a series of tents nearby. The tents are the residences of the sisters, Maria, Luna, and Sakuya.

This lake is known to many soldiers on the base. It's not huge but the lake had crystal clear water. With tall hills blocking off most of the lake from view and only a single path of entry, it's a perfect place for females to take a bath without prying eyes.

But, this path is linked to the region where Maria's group is. It's impossible to make it past them without alerting anyone. The girls naturally treasured the very private bath.

Alas, they were staying in the forward operating base so they can't monopolize the lake. Instead, Maria bought rights to the lake with a portion of the loot they got from hunting in the Ancient Forest.

It's deep in the night so there's usually nobody here taking a bath. But, there's a single soul here.

Her flapping wings were like a melody. She flew onto the lake's surface and dipped her toes into the water, her white wings slowly lowering her into the water.

The moonlight hit her at just the right angle, accentuating her voluptuous figure. The light coming from her white wings also illuminated the woman's sad but beautiful mien. Her eyes were like gems that would make others covet her.

If the soldiers saw this scene then they would be hopelessly ensnared by this beauty who fell from heaven. Her heart already belonged to someone so any suitor would be doomed to a life of mystery.

Luna is this angelic beauty.

She looked at the lake with her sad eyes. Her pitiful look can rend souls. She made her wings disappear.

When she stored her wings away, Luna cupped the lake water and poured it back into the lake. It was a scene that someone can draw and turn into a masterpiece. She stood up and started removing her clothes.

Soon, all her curves, wings, and smooth skin can be seen. Any one of her divine features would be enough to turn an average girl into a killer beauty. With all her perfect features, she is someone who can easily make nations go to war for her.

Fortunately, she had all the features a girl could wish for and she had a stunning face to finish it off.

Even if she didn't have her wings, no one would doubt her angelic origin.

The grass growing around the lake covered her nosebleed-inducing birthday suit. Even if people are standing in the only access path, the tall grass would still provide enough cover for the girls to shower without worries.

Luna stepped further into the lake, she created ripples that reached the center of the lake.

The lake isn't particularly deep. The deepest area of the lake only reached Ikaros' shoulder. Since Luna's' wings absorbed water, she would sink if the depth of the lake is taller than her.

She rubbed her shoulder, collarbone, and her bountiful mountains. Luna continued washing herself down. It seemed like she was taking a bath seriously. However, her eyes were not focused.

As for why she's not focused, that's because she's longing for someone and it was not hard to guess the identity of this person as they can only be one individual capable of putting Luna in this state.
