Free Web NovelChapter 204: Full Body Massage I
The team stood in the aftermath of the battle, catching their breath. The mist had fully cleared, and the chamber was quiet except for the faint hum of residual mana.
Lisa’s eyes scanned the far corner of the room and noticed something gleaming behind a cluster of broken webbing. "Look over there—there’s something behind those webs."
Andrey followed her gaze and saw a faint shimmer of metal. He walked over, using his staff to push aside the remaining webs, and revealed a small, ornate chest tucked against the wall. It was made of dark wood with silver inlays, pulsing with a soft, golden glow.
"A reward chest," he said, crouching down.
Sein crossed her arms, watching with interest. "Open it. Let’s see what we got."
Andrey lifted the lid. Inside, nestled on a velvet cushion, lay two weapons: a longsword and a pair of dual daggers. The longsword had a sleek, silver blade with a faint blue shimmer along the edge. Its hilt was wrapped in dark leather, and a small sapphire was set into the pommel. The daggers were shorter, with curved, wickedly sharp blades that seemed to drink the light. Their hilts were wrapped in black cord, and each had a small, dark gem set into the base.
The team gathered around as Andrey carefully lifted the longsword, testing its weight. It was well-balanced, the edge perfectly aligned.
Sarah peered at the daggers. "Dual daggers. Those look deadly."
Hope examined the longsword from where she stood, nodding in approval. "Fine craftsmanship. The mana traces suggest these were forged with a specific purpose in mind."
The System window appeared in front of them, displaying the details.

Andrey held the longsword in one hand, then looked at the daggers still in the chest. "These are good weapons. I’ll take both of them."
Sarah blinked, clearly surprised. "Both? But you already have your staff. What do you need a sword and daggers for?"
Sein crossed her arms, a knowing smirk on her face. "Versatility."
Andrey nodded, sheathing the longsword at his hip and securing the daggers on his belt. "The staff is great for crowd control and defense, but against faster enemies, I need something that lets me strike quickly. The sword gives me reach and power, and the daggers give me speed. Having more options in combat is never a bad thing."
Lisa’s eyes widened as she looked at the weapons now secured on Andrey’s belt. "That makes sense. You’ll be able to adapt to different situations more easily."
Hope smiled, though her eyes lingered on the daggers for a moment. "They suit you, Andrey. Good choice."
Sarah tilted her head, a thoughtful look on her face. "So, your staff for sweeping attacks, the longsword for power, and the daggers for speed. That’s a solid combination."
Sein stretched, letting out a small yawn. "Not bad. Now let’s get to the next rest area. I need to sit down for a bit."
A bright golden light suddenly enveloped the room, and the team found themselves transported to a spacious rest area. Soft cushions were arranged around a low table, and refreshments were laid out as before. The atmosphere was calm and welcoming.
Sarah stretched her arms above her head, letting out a satisfied groan. "Finally. A break."
Lisa smiled softly, looking around the room. "This place really is comfortable."
Sein dropped onto one of the cushions, crossing her arms. "Don’t get too comfortable. We still have one more floor to go."
Hope settled onto a cushion, her greatsword resting beside her. "It’ll be a tough fight, but I’m confident we can handle it."
Andrey sat down, staff resting beside him, the longsword and daggers at his hip. His eyes drifted to the System window still lingering at the edge of his vision. "We should use this time to rest and recover. The final floor will be the hardest."
Sein leaned back, letting out a long breath. "Then let’s make the most of this rest."
Lisa gently placed a cup of tea in front of Andrey. "Here, drink this while it’s warm."
Andrey accepted it with a small nod. "Thanks, Lisa."
System: Congratulations on clearing the second floor! You’ve all worked incredibly hard, and I can feel the bond between you growing stronger with every battle~
Sein, who had just closed her eyes to rest, cracked one open. "Here it comes..." freёwebnovel.com
Sarah groaned, slumping deeper into her cushion. "Can’t we just rest for five minutes?"
System: This won’t take long! And besides, the reward will help you recover faster. Think of it as a healing session with extra... benefits~
Lisa’s cheeks turned pink as she looked down at her lap. "I had a feeling this would happen..."
System: Since you’ve all been fighting so well together, I thought I’d help deepen your bonds even further! Today’s reward is simple but effective~
Sarah narrowed her eyes. "What’s the reward this time?"
System: Full body massage for everyone! Andrey will give each of you a thorough, relaxing massage. The goal is to release all the tension built up from battle. The pleasure meter must reach 100% for each person~ fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
Hope’s eyes widened slightly, her cheeks turning pink. "A... full body massage? That’s..."
Sarah sighed heavily. "I guess it’s better than some of the alternatives..."
Lisa shifted on her cushion, her face still flushed. "I... I don’t mind... as long as everyone’s comfortable..."
System: Hehe~ See? Everyone’s starting to agree! Andrey, you’ll begin with Lisa, then Sarah, and finally Sein.
Andrey ran a hand through his hair, exhaling slowly. "...Of course."
System: Alright! Let’s begin! Lisa, you’re first~
Lisa rose to her feet with a soft, shy smile, her cheeks still pink. She moved to the center of the rest area and lay down on her stomach on the large, cushioned mat that had appeared near the table. The fabric was soft and cool beneath her, and the warm light above cast a gentle glow over her small frame.
"Just... take it slow," she said softly, her voice carrying a hint of nervousness and anticipation.
Andrey approached, kneeling beside her. "I will. Just relax and focus on your breathing."
The System chimed cheerfully, its voice playful and encouraging.
System: That’s it, Lisa~ Let all the battle tension melt away~
Andrey’s hands moved to her neck first. The muscles there were tight from the earlier battles, but his touch was firm and warm as he worked his thumbs along the base of her skull.
Lisa let out a soft, pleased hum, her body instinctively relaxing under his touch. "That’s... really nice..."
Andrey worked his way down to her shoulders, pressing firmly along the knots he found. His hands were steady and soothing, each movement deliberate and careful. "You’re still tense here," he observed, pressing deeper into her shoulder blades.
Lisa moaned softly, a sound between pleasure and relief, as the tension began to ease. "Mmm... you’re right... I didn’t realize I was so tight there..."
His thumbs traced along her spine, working through the knots one by one, and Lisa’s soft moans grew slightly louder as he found particularly stubborn areas.
Sein rolled her eyes, though a faint smirk tugged at her lips. "She’s already melting."
Sarah bit her lip, watching but staying quiet, her cheeks slightly flushed. Lisa’s soft sounds of pleasure echoed softly in the rest area.
Hope watched with wide eyes, the pink tint on her cheeks deepening as she observed the scene unfold. She fidgeted slightly, her fingers curling against her knee.
Lisa’s shoulders relaxed completely as Andrey’s hands continued their work. He moved lower, his palms pressing along her lower back, working out the stiffness from the long battle. She let out another soft moan, her body sinking deeper into the mat.
"You’re doing so well, Lisa..." Sarah murmured, her voice carrying a note of encouragement.
Lisa’s voice was soft, slightly muffled by the cushion. "Mm... it feels really good..."
Andrey’s hands moved lower still, to the curve of her waist and hips, pressing and kneading with the same steady, careful touch. Lisa let out a deeper, more satisfied sigh as the tension drained from her body.
Andrey’s hands moved down along her thighs, the muscles tight from the constant movement during the battles. His fingers pressed carefully, applying firm, steady pressure as he worked out the stiffness. Lisa let out a soft, breathy sigh as the tension began to ease.
"Leave it to me, Lisa," Andrey said quietly. "Just relax."
Lisa nodded into the cushion, her voice soft and a little dreamy. "Mm... it feels so good..."
His hands traced down to her calves, kneading the muscles gently before moving to her feet. His thumbs pressed into the soles with just the right amount of pressure, drawing another soft sound from her.
