So I quickly return to my dream world.

I don't really know what I should do to spend the night, but Chiaki has now the priority.

"I am back, Chiaki!" (I)

"Oh, tell your mother, thank you for the food." (C)

"No problem, but if it's necessary you should be able to find something here." (I)

"I know. I also ate a bit, but the kitchen is a little... primitive." (C)

Maybe I should tech up.

Everything I found here until now was just pointing out "this is the demon castle".

This means in the first place stuff one would expect in a medieval fantasy scenario and not modern amenities.

Apart from the point that I don't know much about technology.

"Did you find a good room? I discovered one that looks just like mine on the top floor." (I)

"I would rather have my own." (C)

Wait!

Does she plan to come frequently here?

With having her own room and such?

Not that I have a particular problem with her presence or a shortage of space as vast as this place is, but I don't like what I have to do to bring her over.

You know, kinda eating her.

On the other side, Chiaki's demon problem that prevents her from sleeping won't just vanish.

So maybe I should show some consideration.

"Okay, I think the good rooms are on the second floor and up. Here on the ground level should be those for the not existing personnel." (I)

* Personnel

* Personnel

"No! Stop it! Stop it! Revoke order!" (I)

"What's wrong, Iori?" (C)

"My mind was right now at it to create a population. While this might be an interesting idea I have really not the right state of mind to deal with actual people here." (I)

I'm even afraid to say it out loud, or at all.

It might directly trigger the next impulse.

Not to speak of my state of mind.

I would have literally voices in my head.

Of literal people!

If this wouldn't question my sanity I don't know what.

Stolen from its rightful author, this tale is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

"Do I understand that right? From one moment to the other maids, butlers, and such folk could show up here?" (C)

"Just when I think about it. So at any time. Yeah!" (I)

"Must be troublesome to be like you." (C)

"You have no idea." (I)

"Yawn! Could we... now please?" (C)

"Sorry, completely forgot how tired you must be." (I)

With this, we head to the second floor to get Chiaki a nice room.

I just manage to notice Kuri, who can be awfully quiet.

Barely able to sense at all.

"Kuri, do you know how to find a good room here? A nice one?" (I)

"Woah!" (C)

Chiaki really hasn't noticed her.

"I can search!" (K)

She moves in front of us and emits large smoke clouds, which somehow move as if they're alive.

They rush out, while Kuri stands still.

"Found one!" (K)

She guides us at a fast pace and after some stairs up and a distance down the floor we reach a huge golden door.

The one concern might be how easy it could be to get lost in this castle.

Which would be a relative one with my relative omnipresence.

"This one looked nice!" (K)

I open and truly, this one looks even better than mine.

For once the walls are white, which is a huge contrast to the usual "dark and ominous" look we have here.

Also, there is quite much gold in intricate patterns to decorate the room.

But the most important for us might be the super luxurious canopy bed.

It's huge, made from high-quality wood, or twisted nightmare matter, but there's no chance that I tell Chiaki.

Also, it has many carvings and to the feel super-soft bedsheets.

I don't think she can complain.

"And? Is it fine?" (I)

"Wow! Really, wow! And you made this?" (C)

"I would guess my subconscious." (I)

"Are there any limits?" (C)

"Zika said no. Aparrantly everything I can imagine, but nothing I can't, for example too complicated stuff." (I)

"So no PCs or gaming consoles." (C)

"Can't make them, but bringing over is fine. Like with your smartphone." (I)

"Ehm, is there a bathroom anywhere? I didn't wash yet!" (C)

Uh, there might be one on this floor but I certainly have no idea about the layout and Chiaki could get lost here when she strays too far while looking for it.

Ah, I have a better idea!

A bathroom here, please!

* Bathroom!

* Bathroom!

* Bathroom!

* Bathroom!

With this, the wall on one side starts to shift in a strange way of space distortion and maybe a little fleshy mass.

It starts to give way, pulling itself inwards, leaving a door.

Assembling continuously the form becomes more intricate and soon one has a high-class bathroom, directly connected to the bedroom.

To test it, and also because this newly created area might be unstable, I head in first.

Truly this bathroom is as impressive as the bedroom.

Naturally, we have a toilet, but looking inside reveals that this is just a pit toilet.

Then we have a shower and also a sink but the largest part of the room is an installation somewhere between a tub and a pool.

I turn to the sink.

Looking at it we have all the necessities in tools. Yet I'm not sure if one should try the toothpaste.

But this all won't mean much if something very important isn't there.

"Ssshhhh"

"And we have water!" (I)

This is already a huge improvement to this place's habitability.

"Didn't you say you couldn't create anything technological? There is a water conduit!" (C)

"I guess it's just a falling mechanism. That much I can do. But the water... I guess it just comes out of the wall. I wouldn't advise trying to apply any kind of common sense here." (I)

When I can make it bright here without having created a sun why would water directly from the wall be a problem?

"Thank you very much, Iori!" (C)

"No problem. I guess I will leave you then, so you can rest." (I)

"Mhm, goodnight!" (C)

I hope she gets some rest.

The room looked nicer than the others, but this is still the menacing demon castle.

It's not the place I would choose to get some rest.

On the other hand, my bad sleeping tendencies were what brought me into this situation.

So I'm not really fit to judge.
