The air inside the temple seemed to freeze.
Aki was forced to tilt her head back, her large emerald eyes filled with panic.
The distance between them was extremely close.
Krillin could even smell the faint, delicate fragrance coming from her. It was the unique scent of hydrangeas in full bloom.
"My name is Krillin. I'm not an intruder."
Krillin withdrew his hand and flipped his palm. The massive Four-Star Dragon Ball appeared out of thin air, emitting a soft orange glow.
"This is the token Elder Moori gave me. I'm here to help and, incidentally, to borrow your Source of Life for a bit."
Aki froze.
She stared blankly at the Dragon Ball, which indeed carried the familiar warm aura of Elder Moori.
It was the unique peaceful and benevolent wavelength of the Namekians, something impossible to fake.
The moment the misunderstanding cleared, a wave of immense shame washed over her.
As a Guardian, she had actually tried to kill a guest carrying a token without even asking for an explanation.
And just now, this man had held her chin in such an embarrassing posture.
"I... I'm so sorry!"
Aki suddenly stepped back. Her fair cheeks instantly flushed crimson like a ripe peach, and even the tips of her pointed ears turned pink.
She fidgeted awkwardly while clutching her skirt and lowered her head, not daring to look at Krillin.
"I thought you were one of Frieza's men because your Ki is too strong, stronger than anyone I've ever seen. It scared me."
"It's fine."
Krillin waved his hand casually, though his gaze still swept across her stunning figure. Nice! Krillin sighed inwardly.
"However, since the misunderstanding is cleared, as compensation, shouldn't you take me to see that legendary holy water?"
"Ah... yes! Please follow me!"
Aki turned around in a fluster and led Krillin through the temple's intricate corridors.
Ancient murals were carved along the corridor walls, depicting the distant history of Planet Namek.
But Krillin's attention was clearly not on those old stones. His gaze remained fixed on the figure walking ahead of him.
Her swaying waist and long hair gently moving with each step carried a natural allure.
Finally, they arrived at a secluded inner chamber.
It was a world of its own.
It was overflowing with vitality.
A tranquil emerald-green pool lay quietly beneath the massive roots of a tree.
A faint mist drifted over the water's surface, condensed highly concentrated life energy.
Just standing there and taking a single breath made Krillin feel every cell in his body cheering.
"This is Agisa's Tear, also known as the Source of Life."
Aki stood beside the pool with her back facing Krillin. Her voice became softer and slightly hesitant, while her hands nervously twisted together.
"It is the essence condensed by the Holy Tree over tens of thousands of years. If you wish to obtain the Super Regeneration ability, you must immerse yourself here and undergo transformation through the holy water."
"But..."
"But what?"
Krillin raised an eyebrow and stepped closer behind her.
Aki turned around and bit her lip. Her large watery eyes were filled with conflict and bashfulness.
"This energy is too violent and carries the will of the Holy Tree."
"Although outsiders have strong bodies, without undergoing assimilation, direct absorption would cause the cells to collapse from the strain."
"It must be conducted through me as a medium through a Sacred Baptism."
When she said the word baptism, her voice trembled even more.
"The so-called baptism is..."
She lowered her head completely, unable to meet Krillin's eyes. Her face flushed red as if it might start dripping blood.
"We need to have the most intimate contact within the holy water."
"Even a deep intermingling of Ki."
"My body must first receive the holy water, filter out its violent will, and then transfer it to you."
Krillin froze for a moment.
Then he instantly understood.
Seriously?
If the ancient sage who created this baptism method appeared before him now, he would immediately kneel on one knee and shout, "Righteous Father, you understand me!"
Suppressing the wild excitement in his heart, Krillin asked, "So you mean we have to take a bath together?"
"N-no! Don't put it so crudely! This is a sacred ritual!"
Aki stamped her foot in embarrassed anger. Her charming expression made one's heart itch.
"For the sake of Planet Namek and to strengthen you to fight against the demons, I am willing to make this sacrifice."
By the end, her voice carried determination, as if she were preparing to walk toward execution.
But in her eyes, which occasionally glanced at Krillin, there was a trace of barely noticeable anticipation.
During the long and lonely years she had guarded this ancient tree alone, never before had such a powerful, domineering, yet captivating man entered her world.
"Sacrifice? No, no, no, Aki."
Krillin stepped forward and gently held her small cold hands.
"This is a blessing for me, and for you, perhaps it is also a kind of release. Please trust me."
Aki felt the warmth coming from his hands, and her body softened slightly.
"Then... please prepare yourself."
She took a deep breath as if strengthening her resolve.
"Please turn around."
Krillin, acting like a gentleman, turned around with his back facing the pool.
From behind him came the soft rustling sound of fabric, unusually clear inside the quiet inner chamber. Each sound tugged at Krillin's nerves.
A white priestess robe slowly slid down.
In the dim light, a perfect body that could make even a saint break their vows was revealed.
Against the surrounding green environment, her skin glowed pure white like fresh milk.
Her long purple hair cascaded down her smooth back, concealing key areas while adding a hazy allure.
Slender legs and a narrow waist made every curve look like a masterpiece carefully carved by a god.
Plop.
A soft sound echoed.
Aki stepped into the water.
The emerald pool rose past her ankles, knees, and finally stopped at her collarbone.
The temperature of the water drew a soft moan from her lips.
"You can come in now."
Her voice trembled slightly, carrying an indescribable emotion.
Krillin took a deep breath, quickly removed his upper garment, revealing a body of lean iron-like muscles, then turned and stepped into the water.
The warm pool surrounded his body, but compared to the beautiful sight before him, the temperature hardly mattered.
At this moment, Aki's purple hair was wet and clung to her body, while droplets of water slid down her fair cheeks.
She held her hands close to her chest and shrank slightly into the water, her emerald eyes looking at Krillin timidly.
She was both nervous and expectant.
"Come closer. I'm going to begin."
Aki spoke softly.
Krillin walked toward her until they stood face-to-face in the water.
They were so close they could feel each other's rapid heartbeats and their breaths intertwining.
"Forgive my boldness, Saintess."
Krillin extended his arms and, amid Aki's surprised gasp, gently pulled her soft and delicate body into his embrace.
The moment their skin touched, it felt as though an electric current instantly passed through both their souls.
