"How about we take a break first?" Raven suggested, noticing Claire's pitiful condition.
The woman was sweating heavily and looked exhausted. If they continued their journey, it would only put her in danger.
"That's a good idea. Thank you."
Claire breathed a sigh of relief as she wiped the sweat from her forehead.
She was extremely tired and desperately wanted to rest. She was just afraid Raven would think she was a burden.
The two of them then looked for a place to rest. Coincidentally, it was already dark, so it was best to find a safe place.
Otherwise, nocturnal monsters might hunt them down, which would be extremely dangerous.
After searching for a few minutes, they finally found a cave near a stream. The cave wasn't particularly high—only about three meters.
It was four meters wide, which was enough for the two of them to rest.
"In that case, I'll take a bath first. You can sit there," Raven said.
Claire had no objection and immediately sat down at the cave entrance, leaning her tired back against the wall.
She glanced at Raven, who was about to take off his clothes, and was shocked.
Quickly, she turned her body and covered her face in embarrassment.
"What is he doing? Did he forget that I'm here?" she muttered shyly.
Her face turned red like an apple, and her breathing became heavy. She had never seen a naked man before, so Raven's actions shocked her greatly.
On the other hand, Raven, the culprit, was unaware of Claire's thoughts. Even if he knew, he wouldn't have cared.
He plunged his body into the stream and felt an incredible freshness, as if he had been reborn.
"If this were on Earth, I wouldn't dare bathe at night like this, especially in a stream I don't know," he muttered.
Bathing at night was dangerous for the body. The nerves, which should have been resting, would become active and could lead to rheumatism.
But he had no choice. Otherwise, he would have to sleep while covered in sweat, and he couldn't sleep like that.
After five minutes, Raven finally finished and climbed out of the water. His six-pack abs were clearly visible under the bright moonlight.
Drops of water slid down between his firm abs, something that could make any woman fall head over heels just by looking at him.
He walked a little away from the cave and opened his status panel, then pressed the bag icon.
Instantly, a black bag appeared out of thin air. He picked it up and opened it, and his eyes widened in surprise.
Inside the small bag were many sets of men's clothes. And not only that—there were also food items such as meat, eggs, vegetable oil, rice, flour, and more.
The amount was enough to feed him for four full days.
"Isn't this amazing?" Raven muttered in surprise.
He continued rummaging through the bag and found a portable stove, pots, and other supplies.
A broad smile spread across his face. Food and clothes were what he had worried about most.
He couldn't eat monster meat and wasn't sure whether his stomach could digest it.
Fortunately, Malphas was kind enough to give him plenty of food and other necessities.
A moment later, his happiness faded. His clothes and food would only last for four to five full days.
Whether he liked it or not, he would have to find them himself after that.
Raven put everything back into the magic bag and walked toward the cave.
Seeing Raven return, Claire smiled and stood up.
"Are you done?"
"Yeah, I'm done. It's your turn to take a bath."
Claire nodded and walked past him. But then she remembered something and turned back to Raven with a pout.
"Don't peek, okay?"
Badump!
Raven's heart raced when he saw her adorable expression. He quickly calmed himself and replied, "Don't worry, I know my limits."
His words put Claire's mind at ease. With a smile on her face, she walked toward the stream.
Watching her back, Raven smiled slightly and followed her.
How could he possibly obey her request?
His goal in getting close to Claire was to conquer her and make her his woman. It was only natural that he wanted to see her body, wasn't it?
Claire finally arrived at the stream and turned around. After confirming that Raven wasn't there, she breathed a sigh of relief and slowly opened her dress.
Behind one of the trees, Raven watched her every move.
When her dress was completely open, her gorgeous body appeared before his eyes.
She was wearing black underwear that contrasted sharply with her hair color, which only made her look even sexier.
She unhooked her bra, and in that instant, her big breasts were clearly visible.
"I didn't expect her to hide those two so well," he muttered in awe.
It had to be said, the dress Claire was wearing was truly remarkable. It was so loose that it made her look flat and lacking in curves.
Fortunately, he could see what was beneath it now, so his curiosity was finally satisfied.
"D or even E? Both are huge, aren't they?" he whispered with a playful glint in his eyes.
One technique for conquering women was to understand their body shapes. After all, a person's body shape could reveal their weaknesses.
Take women with big breasts, for example. They were very sensitive around the nipples and surrounding areas, making those the easiest spots to weaken them in bed.
On the other hand, women with slightly smaller breasts often had erogenous zones on their stomachs, ears, and necks.
Although not all women were the same, previous customers who had used his services often displayed these traits.
"Hmmm..." Claire hummed contentedly as she rinsed herself in the stream.
The water was cold but refreshing. It was her first time bathing outdoors like this, and fortunately, there was no one around, so she felt safe and at ease.
After five minutes, she decided to finish her bath and climb onto the riverbank.
Suddenly, her gaze locked onto a tree about ten meters away.
"Who's there?" she asked sharply.
There was no answer, but Claire didn't dare take any chances. She hurriedly put on her clothes and ran back toward the cave in a panic.
Seeing Raven cooking, she let out a sigh of relief and sat down about a meter away from him.
"What's wrong?" Raven asked, puzzled.
Claire shook her head. "Nothing. By the way, what are you doing?"
She saw a pot, rice, chicken, and various spices laid out before him.
"Cooking, of course," Raven replied casually.
"Cooking?" Claire blinked in surprise. "Are those ingredients from the bag the goddess gave you?"
"Yeah. You can check it."
Claire quickly opened her status panel and pressed the "bag" icon in storage.
A black backpack appeared. She opened it and examined the contents.
There were new dresses and underwear of good quality, and in the food section, chicken, eggs, and other ingredients.
"This is incredible," she whispered.
She hadn't expected a single bag to hold so many items. It felt like a dream.
Raven just smiled quietly. At first, he had been surprised too, but he didn't think much of it. After all, they were in a strange fantasy world.
"Wait a moment. The food will be ready soon."
Claire was about to refuse, but her stomach growled loudly.
Blushing, she pressed her hand to her stomach and lowered her head in embarrassment.
