Chapter 125: Getting Fed By Two Wives

Elias rolled the gold coin between his fingers as he walked toward the bathroom, letting it pass from one finger to another while his thoughts wandered.

Once he entered the bathroom, however, he did not bother taking off his clothes. Instead, he simply stored everything he was wearing.

In an instant, his clothes disappeared, leaving him wearing only the loose underwear covering his lower body.

He glanced down at himself, then stored the gold coin as well as the fresh pair of clothes he had prepared before finally stepping into the bath.

The warm water immediately embraced him with its warmth, and Elias exhaled quietly as he leaned against the edge of the tub. He remained there for several minutes, allowing himself to relax before eventually washing himself and finishing his bath.

Once he was done, he stepped out and picked up a towel, rubbing it through his hair and across his body until he was mostly dry. Then, after shaking his head once to remove the remaining moisture from his hair, he opened his Inventory again.

The fresh clothes appeared directly onto his body.

The dark pants settled comfortably around his legs, while the shirt covered his upper body. Four buttons remained open near the collar, so Elias closed them one after another before reaching for the clothes he had worn the previous day.

He left those beside the bath so the maids could collect them later, then summoned his boots from the Inventory, and they appeared on his feet.

His hair, however, remained messy.

Elias looked at his reflection for a moment before shrugging and walking out of the bathroom. ℯℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

It only took him a few seconds to return to his room, where he found Natasha waiting.

The moment he saw her, Elias smiled and approached her.

[Can you comb my hair?]

Natasha nodded without hesitation. She opened a nearby drawer, took out the wooden comb, and then lightly patted the space beside her on the bed.

Elias sat down where she indicated, and Natasha moved behind him before gently running the comb through his messy hair.

The movement was slow and careful, and Elias simply closed his eyes while allowing her to work.

After a few moments, Natasha finished and lowered the comb.

Elias touched his hair briefly before standing.

[Thank you,] he said with a faint smile.

Natasha smiled softly in response, and the two of them left the room together.

They had barely stepped into the corridor when a familiar voice rang out.

"Husband!"

Stella rushed toward them, immediately clinging to Elias’s left arm with a wide smile.

Elias looked down at her and smiled.

Stella was wearing a white top with puffed sleeves and a puffed border, while a white bow rested against her chest. Her pink skirt reached her knees, and even her sandals were white, giving her an unusually bright appearance.

She looked up at him with an expectant gaze.

"How do I look?" she asked.

"You look great," Elias said honestly.

"Hehe. Of course, I do," Stella mumbled smugly as she rubbed the lower part of her nose with one finger, clearly pleased with herself.

Elias chuckled under his breath as they began descending the stairs.

However, before they reached the bottom, Natasha quietly linked her arm with his other arm.

Elias glanced at her in surprise, but the faint smile that appeared on his face made it clear he did not mind.

The three of them descended together, and the morning continued as it usually did.

A few minutes later, they entered the dining room, and Stella immediately claimed the chair beside Elias.

She settled into it with satisfaction before sticking her tongue out at Natasha.

Natasha merely stared at her.

Elias could only chuckle at the childish exchange as Sara and Lena entered carrying the morning meal.

Once everything had been placed on the table, they began eating.

It did not take long for Stella to make her request.

"Husband, feed me."

Elias looked at her for a moment.

"You can eat by yourself."

"But I want you to feed me," Stella insisted, and although she called it a request, her expression made it clear that she had already decided what was going to happen.

Elias sighed before giving in.

"Fine."

He picked up his spoon and began feeding her.

However, while he was doing so, Natasha suddenly leaned forward and quietly picked up Elias’s spoon.

She took a small portion of food, brought it toward his mouth, and waited.

Elias blinked in surprise.

’How thoughtful.’

He opened his mouth and ate the food she offered.

A faint smirk appeared on Natasha’s face as she glanced toward Stella, her expression resembling someone who had just won a small but important victory.

Stella’s eyes widened, and her expression immediately darkened.

Then, as though some hidden determination had ignited inside her, she straightened herself and looked at Elias.

"I also want to feed my husband!"

Elias’s smile widened.

’Why do they have to make this a tournament? Haha.’

"Sure," he said.

He leaned back slightly in his chair, and Stella immediately picked up her spoon and began feeding him.

Natasha quietly rose, moved her chair beside Elias, and sat down again.

Then she began feeding him as well.

Elias ate one spoonful from the right.

The next instant, another spoon appeared from the left.

Before he could properly swallow, a third came from the right.

His expression slowly darkened as he stared at the two spoons hovering near his face.

He finally raised both hands.

"Slow down, both of you. I am not some animal being prepared for sacrifice," he said aloud, while his Mental Whisper echoed the same words inside Natasha’s mind.

Stella immediately chuckled.

Natasha simply lowered her hand.

After that, the two of them finally slowed down, taking turns feeding him without trying to overwhelm him.

Elias, seeing that they had calmed down, began feeding them in return.

The two maids standing near the dining room entrance had quietly stuck their heads past the doorway, and both Sara and Lena watched the scene with amused smiles, clearly finding the entire spectacle adorable.

Eventually, breakfast came to an end.

As usual, Elias sent Stella and Natasha toward his room before turning toward the stairs to go to Monica’s room.

He had just taken a step when the sound of approaching horses reached his ears.

The rhythmic clopping of hooves was followed by the unmistakable rumble of carriage wheels moving across the ground.

Elias paused.

It appeared Benjamin had returned after purchasing everything.

His plans immediately changed.

Rather than continuing upstairs to see Monica, Elias turned around and began walking toward the building where the monster corpses were.
