Chapter 73: A Lesson in Servitude

He remembered that Theo had shown him how to use the bath the first time, but since then, he'd always bathed alone. Or... had he? Wait a minute... Damien suddenly realized that, in this world, he had never actually bathed alone.

The realization left him stunned.

"Wait, Sebas, are you misunderstanding something?" Damien asked.

"I mean... I can bathe by myself, you know?"

"I'm well aware," Sebas replied calmly.

So, Sebas did know. Beside him, Theo looked a bit surprised as he glanced at Damien, but Damien chose to ignore it. It wasn't about being washed; it was about letting them wash him.

Still, Damien was more confused than ever.

"Um... can you explain this?" he asked.

"Indeed," Theo added, nodding in agreement. "I don't understand why we'd suddenly need help for this. I'd like an explanation as well."
