As they chatted their way through the corridors of tower castle, reaching the bathhouse. Alden thanked Lucas, leaving him to his duties.
Much to Alden's astonishment, the large bathhouse is a lot similar to earth country japan. An onsen, primarily designed with floor stones. Taking off his clothes, feeling the warmth of the pool water. To his liking. He proceeds to enter and adjust his body. Closing his eyes, Alden's mind turns adrift.
[four days already] Alden thought
Till this moment, Alden could not believe that he had transmigrated yet. Every morning for the last four days. Whenever he opens his eyes, praying that it is not a dream. A world where the most vicious creatures and races would resort to annihilation if push comes to shove. Savagery at its peak where the strong would decide whether you live or die. Even those closest to you will do you the most harm if you let your guard down. Maybe because of his paranoia, or perhaps his twisted mind that had yet to settle. But Alden truly believes that he will die before he can even become more dominant. Still, those thoughts did not disturb him a bit. Those thoughts would linger for a moment and be replaced by the constant happiness to wheel his life the way he wanted. Every day Alden would genuinely close his eyes and thank whoever god granted him this power.
Anyways.
One hour later, inside the sauna-like bathhouse, Alden fully immersed himself in relaxation; yet suddenly.
{ATTENTION TO HOST}
{The System has detected an Aura of the Dark element near host}
{If the host wishes to obsorb}
{The System suggest close proximity to initiate task}
{ATTENTION TO HOST}
{The System detected an Aura of energy nearest to the host.}
Opening his eyes abruptly. Reading the system notifications, The malice of a look beheld his expression. If someone were present, they would only see a young lord of the city, nothing changed, but his eyes had turned completely black, like a gravity zero space his hair suddenly stood. Shadow Mox spawned behind, growling and sensing its master rage, ready to fight. The entire bathhouse turned gloomy. A foreseeable death awaits those who neared the man.
~interesting, intruders~ Alden spoke.
His voice echos through the bathhouse, proclaiming his statement, for far too long, his ability to survive has urged him to always be on guard. That fact alone proved him correct.
[System how far is the intruder] Alden replied
*DING*
{Approximent location detecting}
{Upper building to host left, near the entrance of the library}
{The System detected the target to be cloaked with a mechanism of the Darkness element}
*DING*
{The System detected the target outside the building where the host located}
Alden stood up, bare-bodied suddenly materialized clothes on him, like the day he faced Princess Mable. His face is completely shrouded with darkness. His figure blended with the gloomy atmosphere of suppression.
~Very interesting, ~ Alden spoke, completely one with the Dark. before he left, Alden stared at the door he came through. Fascinated by the intruder's ability to hide even from him.
*SHAWWWWWWWW*
Alden suddenly Disappears from the bathhouse. Shadow Mox stood silently inside the bathhouse suddenly turning into a cloud of dark smoke. And as the smoke lingers inside the bathhouse. It began to move toward the closed door of the bathhouse. Through the lock keyhole, leaking silently to the other side. If Alden were to open the door, he would find two maids stationed at the front. Waiting for him. To what purpose? Alden does not know.
"huh?" One of the maids suddenly sounded. Caressing her shoulders, she shivers as something sinister and dark neared her and made its way upwards above them. As this was happening, the female, without blinking, turned back and stared at the locked door. Seeing that there was nothing there, The maid became puzzled and started to think, For what she was thinking, only she knows.
And as for the other maid—a male butler noticing the female maid's strange behavior. Spoke
"Are you alright, Tania?" He Spoke
Suddenly forgetting to conduct herself as a maid, Tania looked at the person next to her and saw the concern in his eyes, finally coming back from her thoughts. Tania remembering this male previous perverted actions whenever she was teamed together; she almost put a disgusted face on but suddenly stopped herself. Quickly adjusting herself, and replied heartlessly.
"I'm fine; there's no need for your concern," she ended. Not willing to put herself in any anymore dire situation. Seeing her ignore him like that, the male maid frowned, then he continued to speak.
"As I was saying earlier, perhaps you would like to join me for a drink later. Hmm"
"I've procured some from Sir Lucas."
"Even more, I have more than one."
"if you like, I could visit you later in your chambers and show you, hmm?"
He spoke and fell silent, waiting for a fascinating reaction from the female he liked and hoping that this was his chance for him to sleep with her. But Alas, she did not even filter her eyes at him. Standing like a maidan of higher stature. Tania ignored the man next to her.
All around the cabin of the servant, things such as forbidden and ascertain do not match. This male servant has been chasing tails and never gets caught—simply a fox who dared to steal from a farmer. For many years, he lived in Summer castle. He has always been smart enough not to step out of boundaries but will always do things such as sneak his way to the female maid's bedroom. In the beginning, it was easier for him to do so because Lucas was lenient towards this action. Of course, there are servants he dare not touch.
Servants who are only reserved for the young lord of the city but ever since Lucas changed. Every servant, only female, is now reserved for the young lord only. That includes Tania but this playboy; ever since this new maid named Tania has been hired; he fell head over heels for her. He did nothing but chase after her. Carried by his frustration of not having his way with any female maids anymore had made this man jeopardize his life every day to get with Tania. Anyway And as he pestered her for what seemed an eternity. The male maid finally began to grow unsettled and upset. Thinking that she must be playing hard to get. The male servant continued. he whispered to her
"Tania listens. Perhaps I have been far too much of a pester to you," he whispered to her.
"but I would like you to know that my heart is true."
"My only purpose is to have your attention and nothing more."
Turning his head towards Tania and smiling, Tania turned to Leon and stared into his eyes. Entrance not by his words but by his eyes. Tania, who just a moment ago, was always irritated and disgusted by just being in the vicinity of the man beside her. Her heartbeat when she made eye contact with Leon. Perhaps her mind has been playing with her, or maybe she has been standing in the same place for far too long, but in Tania's mind, she could have sworn that Leon never had two different colored eyes.
She what purpose her following action has destroyed her will to resist. Tania suddenly began to take her clothes off willingly. Her eyes still kept locked with Leon, this woman in more petite than a moment has entirely become bare, the figure as a young woman in her twenties, her breast exposed her nipple. Tania completely lost the color in her eyes
