章 954: News spreads

From MC's Perspective:

Without wasting time, I decided to take a cold bath. I made my way to the bathroom, the pristine tiles and the faint scent of eucalyptus promising some comfort.

I let the water run, watching as it filled the tub, cool and inviting. As I submerged myself, the cold water immediately sent a shock through my body, but it wasn't unpleasant.

It was exactly what I needed. For the next twenty minutes, I let the chill seep into my skin, washing away not just the grime, but also the tension that had settled into my bones.

Afterward, I wrapped myself in a fresh towel, feeling the soft fabric against my skin. I changed into clean, comfortable clothes, appreciating how they felt after such a refreshing bath. The room felt calmer now, more familiar, but I knew I couldn't relax just yet. There was still so much to understand.
