Han felt the water and enjoyed how he didn't have to flinch like he'd have done in the past whenever entering a pool. Even in a heated pool, the water would feel slightly cold.

But the water in the bath felt as though it were gently embracing him. It was warmer than a pool but not enough to make it feel uncomfortable.

Eventually, the warm water reached his hips, and he lowered himself -- feeling slightly weightless due to the displacement. Though the bath wasn't the size of a pool, it was still deep enough to reach his chest if he sat properly.

His other arm soon felt a soft marshmallow-type feel.

"Master, sit down next to me," Brittany giggled as she guided him towards the submerged bench for them to sit on.

Even the bath was formed from some type of stone. When Han sat on it, there was a sense that it conformed to his butt. The sensation wasn't too dissimilar to the throne he made. In addition, the stone was nice and warm due to the water.

Brittany pressed her breasts against his arms as she relaxed in the bath, her head resting on his shoulder in bliss.

Helania sat down next to him and rested against Han.

Since the two sides were occupied, Queen sat across from him on the steps. The steps were also able to be used as a seat. Seeing both Helania and Brittany enjoying themselves, it was clear that Queen was feeling a little jealous. Though, she held herself back, deciding to be the mature one.

Han thought it was adorable how Queen slightly pouted, thinking he should spend some time with Queen.

"How is the water for you?" Han asked.

Since Queen was an undead, her body was usually cold to the touch. It made Han wonder how she'd react to the warm water.

Smiling, Queen said, "It is enjoyable, Master. Since my body is at a lower temperature, I am sensitive to anything warm. But my ability to withstand changing temperatures makes it pleasant for me."

Hearing Queen say that, Han wondered if he should install a large bathing area for her to enjoy. It would also be nice to spend time with all his creations when he wanted to be away from the people of the world.

Having been someone that enjoyed baths, it was a pleasant idea to have other warm water areas, like with a jacuzzi. Though it was a pain to maintain, Han knew that his creations would take care of it. So all he needed to do was to dip into it whenever the mood struck him.

Enjoying the water and her time with Han, Helania asked, “Master, what will we do after leaving here?”

Han blinked before tilting his head to rest on Brittany's head -- who giggled at the attention.

“I am trying to decide between following this family back to their town or continuing towards the capital. Based on what has been seen in this inn, it will be interesting to learn what other tools humans have created with the help of magic." He went silent as he tried to organize his thoughts.

"The level of magic development is also interesting to learn more about. It is completely different from what I have experienced, so I like the idea of seeing more of the advanced areas.” He told them.

Maybe after visiting the capital and seeing what the kingdom was like, he would visit the other areas.

Han thought about the village woman they brought with them. He imagined that Elis would prefer to stay with Tom's family. Though traveling with him had likely exposed her to a fantastical world, the family would be closer to the pace she was used to living.

Enjoying the feeling of Brittany's breasts, Han said to Helania and Queen, "I sense that this world is filled with many interesting surprises. And the capital is likely where we can find clues to more interesting places."

In his mind, Han imagined ancient ruins hidden away from civilization -- too dangerous for the average adventurer to venture into. He grinned at the thought.

Helania and Queen shared a glance before they giggled.

After their intense activities, Han simply looked at Queen before sliding an arm around Helania's shoulders.

"I'm blessed to be able to spend time casually enjoying time with beautiful women while thinking of the future," Han thought. "I don't have to worry about money or where my next meal will come from. Then there are things like rent, insurance, and other expenses that adults have to deal with."

He took a deep breath.

Turning his head, Han kissed the top of Brittany's wet head.

------------------

Queen felt a warmth blossom from inside her undead heart.

"I am glad that our Master is looking better. No longer does he appear to be dealing with his inner turmoil." Queen thought.

Though she wished to be next to her Master, she was especially annoyed by how shameless Brittany was behaving -- forgetting her role to serve their Master. But such emotions were not strong enough to ruin the peace around them.

The steam twirled in the air as the water warmed the air, creating a slight air movement.

On either side, the faucets poured out water, making a relaxing sound. Ripples from the water pouring into the bath were seen on the surface of the bath.

It was then that she felt something strange.

Queen closed her eyes to concentrate and understand what was happening. The dead connected to her whispered about something about to happen where they rested. But she didn't sense that it was dangerous for any of them, especially her Master.

-----------------------

“Master, there seems to be some activity going on. I sense a large number of humans heading toward this village. Based on their movements and how they are organized, I suspect that it may be connected to the even earlier today.” Andrea informed him from where she sat on the carriage.

Andrea's concern pulled Han from the peaceful moment.

On either side of him, Helania and Brittany moved to sit correctly as though they also sensed something wrong.

Han looked to see Queen with her eyes closed, as though trying to figure out what was happening. He judged that she had sensed the disturbance just as when Andrea had informed them.

“Queen, I want you to send out your shadow assassins to investigate what this group of humans is all about.” He commanded her as he stood up, the water flowing off his body.

“Yes, Master,” Queen bowed.

Han knew that Queen was likely already communicating with her minions, researching the situation. However, he still felt that it was good to express his will.

Thinking of his closes just beyond the curtain, a part of him didn't like the idea of donning his old clothes when something interesting was going to occur. Han then remembered that he had told his creations to fashion clothes for him.

Han turned to look at Brittany. “Brittany, is my outfit ready yet?” He asked.

Brittany's eyes appeared to lose focus before regaining focus. She looked at him and said, “Yes, Master. All of our outfits have been completed and are waiting for us.”
