We moved to the bathroom with Aquarina to take a quick bath before going to this small town. We had portable bathrooms which were a very rustic bathtub made out of wood resembling a barrel, which was enhanced with magic to become reinforced, it is capable of heating up water and also producing it through two small red and blue jewels stuck to it named Spirit Stones. They're special stones that are found in mountains infused with mana over eons.

These special Stones, according to my mother, are infused with natural elements, and by infusing mana into them, they can produce the element they are. There are Fire, Water, Wind, Thunder, Earth, Darkness, Light, and more stones as well, which are all infused with certain elements. These two stones are quite of high purity, but my mother said that Spirit Stones usually come in big and colorful chunks of many elements and need to be cut down and refined into single element jewels to be used properly.

Spirit stones that are unrefined, when infused with mana usually explode as the elements converge with one another and generate "chaos" as she said, some sort of weird element that emerges when various other elements merge together in total disharmony, so they're very dangerous and need to be refined carefully to not explode and… well, kill people.

Because of this, not everybody in not-advanced societies have spirit stones, and they're quite expensive in the market, only nobles and commoners with connections to nobles, or that are merchants can realistically have them, so having a bathtub like this is already a luxury for us.

Well, I wouldn't call it a bathtub when it looks more like a giant barrel, but the ability it has to produce warm water to wash ourselves is very useful, we can also just produce water using magic, such as the Water Bubble Spell, a tier 1 spell that produces water that can be drink, so even if we are in the desert we'll never be thirsty. Magic is a fantastic thing, my mother said that in the Atlanta continent there are vast deserts to the other side of the continent where other types of people live, chocolate-skinned elves known as Dark Elves live in deserts where they seem to feel more comfortable, alongside an assortment of beast-kin and even Demons… This world is so vast and mysterious, I really just want to search every little corner and see everything it has to offer!

…But I was getting distracted.

"Sylphy the water is warm, come!" Said Aquarina, as she took off her white dress and was left completely nude, she didn't even wore underwear, this girl lives very freely… Her entire body was brown skinned, almost like chocolate. I noticed a few parts around her body, her legs, chest, mostly around her developing breasts, and her neck, she had white tattoos that glowed with a bright mana aura from within.

I had seen these tattoos before when we had taken our first bath together, these tattoos are made by Nepheline, they're named "Reinforcing Tattoos" and every amazon child get them at the age of 3, they help them at being able to manipulate mana and reinforce their body strength using mana too, acting like artificial mana veins for the facilitation of the use of mana. The tattoos are made through a ritual where the dust made out of the bones of many strong monsters is made into a white paste, which become this tattoo's painting. It is not a painful ritual and the children don't seem to mind it.

The tattoos slowly fuse with their skin, and as they grow older, the tattoos develop with them and help them grow stronger, my mother called this a "secret ritual" that amazon had, something like their very own secret technique that they made up to grow stronger quickly in such environments. I don't know if it can work with other people, but my mother said that they were "exclusively made for amazon", so perhaps they won't work on me. Zack also got his own around his body. Although I have yet to take a bath with him, I've seen him naked a few times when he takes baths near the river.

"W-What are you staring at me so much?" Asked Aquarina while blushing a bit, covering her body shyly.

"Uwah! S-Sorry, I didn't meant to stare so much, its just that your tattoos are very beautiful." I said.

"Ooh… You like them that much?" Asked Aquarina.

"Yeah, they're very beautiful, it shows that you're a warrior." I said.

"S-Sylphy… Geez, just come take a bath already!" Said Aquarina, jumping into the bathtub, or well, the very big barrel-like bathtub.

SPLASH!

"Okay!"

I quickly took off my clothes, my panties, socks, and dress, leaving completely nude, the chill wind from the outside made my little body quiver a bit, but I quickly jumped into the bathtub with Aquarina.

SPLASH!

"Aaaahh~ It's so warm, nice…" I sighed in relief.

"Yeah, it really hits the spot, hehe…" Said Aquarina, as she slowly swam to my side and hugged me my back. I smiled a bit as I felt her warmth in my back, as Aquarina grabbed a sponge with some soap and began to gently rub it on my back, I sat down in between her legs as she carefully and gently washed me.

"Your skin color is so bright and white, so beautiful… Compared to mine, it is very different." Said Aquarina. She was always saying stuff related to our skin color, but I've never truly cared if it was different or not, in fact her skin color is beautiful.

"Yeah, it might be different, but your skin color is very beautiful, Aquarina…" I said.

"Really?" Asked Aquarina.

"Well of course, your entire tribe has that skin color." I said.

"But papa is as pale as a candle!" Said Aquarina.

"Hahaha, that's because he must be from a tribe of humans that are pale white… You inherited more from your mama in that regard, but you got your father's white hair and blue eyes." I said.

"Oohh… Right!" Said Aquarina.
