In less than 10 minutes, Raiden Ei returned to the hotel. Seeing Boss Dela still at the counter, she greeted her: "Boss Dela, good evening!"
Dela, who was originally reading a book, was startled by Raiden Ei's voice and looked up at her: "Oh! Isn't it Miss Raiden Ei! Why are you back so late? The blood on your clothes..."
Raiden Ei looked down and saw only her own snowy white skin. She blushed a little; she was quite an innocent girl. Although she had touched herself while bathing, thinking about it was still quite embarrassing. It was truly shameful to be unable to see her toes when looking down. She would change her clothes in a moment.
She glanced at the side of her clothes, which were covered in many spots of blood that had already dried. She said directly: "This is someone else's, not mine."
Dela's expression turned blank. Was she really saying something so terrifying? She gave a dry laugh: "Haha, what did you do?"
Raiden Ei wanted to go back and shower quickly, so she spoke as she walked: "Nothing much, just killed a few pirates. I won't say more, I'm going back to my room first."
Dela breathed a sigh of relief. If it was pirates she killed, then it was fine: "Alright, take care."
Raiden Ei returned to her room, closed the doors and windows, and entered the bathroom. She took off her clothes one by one and stepped barefoot onto the smooth stone floor, which reflected her blurry, curvaceous figure. She let down her hair with her hands, her long purple hair covering her back and upturned buttocks.
At this moment, she didn't have a single stitch of clothing on her. Her tender, smooth skin was exposed to the air. Even though no one was there, she was still a bit shy, wrapping her arms around her chest, causing her soft breasts to indent.
By then, the bathtub was full. Looking at the beautiful girl reflected on the water's surface, her face turned even redder, and the beauty mark under her right eye became even more charming.
Raiden Ei carefully stepped in and slowly submerged her entire body in the water. She only relaxed when half of her body was soaked.
"Honestly, my spirits are always so high every time I take a bath."
Raiden Ei took out the soap she bought today from her space and carefully applied it to her smooth skin, gently rubbing her body with her hands. Bubbles rose from the friction. From time to time, she would hit a sensitive spot and let out a soft exclamation, making her bath even slower.
The following ten thousand words are omitted!!!
The next day, as the sky was just beginning to brighten, Raiden Ei was already awake in her room. She lay on the bed, eyes wide open, feeling a bit annoyed: "Why can't I sleep in even if I want to!"
Since she couldn't sleep, she might as well get up! After tidying her messy hair and washing up, she put on her newly bought clothes: a light pink stand-collar shirt with a short black cape on the back, two cords hanging horizontally across her chest, paired with black shorts, a thin black leather belt around her waist with one large and one small pouch, and short boots on her feet.
After braiding her hair into a large braid and placing it behind her, Raiden Ei's entire appearance changed. Her temperament became that of a mature woman; the overall look could be described as valiant and heroic. (There is a picture in the community, from Baidu.)
Looking at herself in the mirror, Raiden Ei nodded in satisfaction. As expected of Raiden Ei, her appearance was top-tier no matter where she went. She put on the gloves lying on the table, stored her belongings into the system backpack, and walked out of the room.
By now, it was broad daylight. Raiden Ei walked down the hallway as usual, heading to the front desk to find Boss Dela to check out.
People waking up in the morning couldn't help but look at Raiden Ei as she passed by; she was simply too eye-catching. A few young men and women didn't even dare to look too much.
Raiden Ei naturally sensed these people's gazes, but she didn't care. With her steps, she quickly reached the front desk. Boss Dela was still looking down at a book. She stepped forward and tapped on the counter.
Dela was startled, but seeing it was Raiden Ei, she wasn't angry. Seeing her in such a beautiful new outfit, she was also a bit amazed: "Miss Raiden Ei, good morning. You look truly beautiful today."
Raiden Ei naturally knew this: "Good morning, Boss Dela. Thank you for the compliment. What book are you reading so early in the morning? I see you reading every time I see you."
Dela said with a smile: "It's just a medical book, nothing important."
"Boss Dela, are you a doctor?"
"I suppose so! I was still studying a few years ago, but my parents wanted me to stay here and look after this hotel, so my medical skills have fallen into disuse."
"Since Boss Dela is still reading medical books, it means you haven't given up on the profession of a doctor. Don't lose heart and learn more; it will be useful one day, won't it?"
"Thank you for the encouragement, Miss Raiden Ei. Where are you planning to go today?"
"I'm here to check out. I'll be leaving in a moment."
"Wow, leaving so soon?"
"Yes, I have things to take care of."
"Alright then! I'll refund the remaining two days' room fee to you." She immediately wanted to give the Berries to Raiden Ei.
Raiden Ei didn't care at all: "No need for a refund. Just consider it for your hospitality these past few days."
"How can that be? You've already paid the fee." Dela held the Berries and tried to force them onto Raiden Ei.
Raiden Ei stepped back to dodge the Berries being pushed toward her and walked toward the door, saying as she went: "Really, no need, Boss Dela. Goodbye!"
Dela chased her outside. Seeing that Raiden Ei had already walked far away, she could only shout "Goodbye." Then she went back to the counter to read. Looking at this unchanging life, she also wished she could go wherever she wanted like Raiden Ei!
"When will this kind of life end..."
After saying goodbye to Boss Dela, Raiden Ei had no one else to bid farewell to. She had just had a falling out with Kaiweiya yesterday, so it was impossible to say goodbye to him now. As for the five including Gatt who joined the Marine, they hadn't even finished their recruit period and were surely training to death, so no need for a goodbye. She hadn't even seen Gando appear. These were the only people she knew on this island.
Raiden Ei bought many supplies she had wanted to buy yesterday from the shops: "Alright, finally time to set off!" At the seaside, she took out the dream Sloop and boarded the ship that belonged only to her.
Did you think Raiden Ei wouldn't know how to sail? She had learned long ago. During those ten or so days on the ship, she had already used Observation Haki to watch it repeatedly dozens of times. With her operation, the dream slowly left the port and sailed toward the sea.
"Destination, Loguetown! Let's go!"
Marine Branch, Kaiweiya's office. Kaiweiya was currently signing documents when someone knocked on the door.
"Knock knock."
"Enter."
Click
A Marine walked in: "Reporting, Lieutenant Commander. Miss Raiden Ei has left Dokabaka Island this morning."
Kaiweiya looked up at the Marine: "Are you sure?"
The Marine answered firmly: "I'm sure. I have confirmed it repeatedly."
Kaiweiya: "You may leave!"
Marine: "Yes, sir."
Click
Kaiweiya looked down at the documents, his brow deeply furrowed as if something was extremely troublesome. He muttered to himself: "It shouldn't be! Isn't she a Bounty Hunter? Does she not even want the twenty million Berries bounty anymore?"
