Gensokyo's Paradise Plan

"Time to eat~"

The moment Keine's voice rang out, Cirno and the other little ones playing in the living room immediately perked up. Without needing further prompting, they obediently lined up to wash their tiny hands in the bathroom.

The others followed suit, their faces relaxed and content.

Having given up on Kaguya's "health supplements," Reimu turned her hopes toward the ever-resourceful Patchouli.

'Big, and skilled in potion-making—maybe she can help!'

"Flandre did ask me to brew something like this before, but the effects weren't great."

"Didn't you try improving the formula?"

"She never brought it up again, and I had no use for it myself, so I dropped it." Patchouli shrugged, her impressively ample assets making Reimu's eyes burn with envy.

"Patchy, dear Patchy, please help me refine the recipe! We've suffered together. I'll make it worth your while!"

Reimu clung to Patchouli's arm, desperation in her voice. Her goal was to surpass her mother—she couldn't afford to give up now!

At the mention of "worth your while," Patchouli's eyes narrowed thoughtfully. After a moment of consideration, she made her offer.

"If you can keep Marisa from clinging to the boss for a whole week, I'll look into a new potion formula."

"That…" Reimu's face twitched. 'This wasn't an easy task.'

Just last night, despite her best efforts, things had spiraled into a live broadcast of shared sensations, she'd nearly passed out from the sheer intensity.

But after another glance at Patchouli's undeniable advantages, she steeled herself and nodded fiercely.

"Deal!"

"Even if I have to tie her up, I'll keep Marisa in check for a week."

"Good. I'll let you know when it's ready." Patchouli nodded in satisfaction, secretly relieved.

She never wanted a repeat of last night.

'If Rin dared to mess around with Marisa right in front of them, who's to say he wouldn't just pounce on her next?!'

'Those two are absolutely shameless!'

As they returned to the living room, they spotted Rin casually walking past, carrying a soaked, tattered bedsheet.

"Boss, what happened to your sheet? It was fine earlier!"

"Yukari thrashed around too much during the bone-setting massage. Tore it up by accident, plus, it's drenched in sweat."

"Whoa, your upgraded technique's that intense now?"

"Of course. Way better than what you got before. But it's members-only now, it's exhausting to perform a full session." Rin grinned before heading off to wash the sheet.

'Might as well salvage it. It's a rare trophy, after all.'

Kaguya stared at the dripping sheet, swallowing hard.

'A massage and bone-setting session could make someone sweat that much?! This doesn't seem entirely wholesome…'

By the time Ran and Keine finished bringing out the dishes, Yukari finally emerged from a gap in space, now in fresh clothes.

Despite the time that had passed, her skin remained flushed, glowing with a post-treatment radiance. She looked well-nourished, her complexion vibrant, her entire demeanor softer and more languid than ever.

Even as she properly took her seat at the table, she still gave off the impression of someone whose bones had melted into jelly.

The others stared at her transformation, their heartbeats quickening slightly.

'This membership massage seems really effective…'

Suika couldn't resist tugging at Yuugi's sleeve, eyes sparkling—

"Your family's massage techniques combined with the boss's skills, are they this good? Give me a session too!"

"That's weird. My method's mainly for kidney health and blood circulation. Mixing it up like this actually beautifies the skin too?" Yuugi scratched her head, genuinely intrigued. Even she was tempted now.

But if she asked the boss for a full session, they'd probably end up fighting halfway through…

Just imagining the consequences made her legs weaken. She shook her head violently, dispelling the thought.

As everyone settled in to eat, Yukari lazily leaned into Ran.

"Ran~ I'm too weak to move. Feed me~"

Pressed this close, Ran could feel Yukari's unsteady, exhausted breathing, and the faint, barely restrained scent of primal instincts stirring beneath the surface…

Ran's hands trembled slightly as she picked up a bowl, carefully feeding Yukari.

Once the others were distracted, she whispered—

"Yukari-sama… how was it?"

At that, Yukari's waist ached on reflex, her blush deepening. But facing her loyal shikigami, she forced a composed front.

"Mmm, decent, I guess. Makes you… sweat a lot. Pretty relaxing."

"Really? Then can I—"

"Ahem! Well, the boss said you're in good health lately, Ran. No need for frequent sessions."

"Here's an idea, you're always forgetting things, right? Let me hold onto your membership card for now. When you're really exhausted, I'll give it back. It'll feel even better then!" Yukari spoke with perfectly rehearsed sincerity, leaving Ran momentarily dazed.

'Wait, isn't this backwards? But after last night's massage, she had felt much lighter. Maybe she didn't need it urgently…'

Ran blinked, though something still felt off.

"Yukari-sama… you won't use up all my credits, right?"

"Of course not! I just used the free trial. I'd never take your share~" Yukari waved her hand dismissively. As if she'd hog her shikigami's benefits!

Her confident demeanor eased Ran's worries. Just a little.

Meanwhile, Kaguya had already scooted over to Rin, bowl in hand, firing off questions.

"Boss, how do I sign up for this retirement resort membership? Any family discounts?"

"Beside bone-setting massage? Do you have any other exciting services?"
