Chuckling at Sheila's words, I glanced once more at the crowd of obsessive women before turning around and heading towards the Inn Eyvor had initially stopped at, which caused me to give her a curious look; we weren't just your average cultivator, so why would we have to stay at an Inn, and not have our own residence. I was a little skeptical of that, but I decided to ignore it for now since I was in a great mood; if the Inn was good, I'd turn a blind eye.
"Hmm, you're not going to do anything about your crowd of fan girls, Prince Elif?" Asked Birger with a raised eyebrow as he, Goliath, Sheila, Echo, and Eyvor followed after Elif while their respective servants did the same.
"No, that's too much work; besides, what is even the point? If they are like this the instant I arrive at Realm for the first time, I highly doubt it'll be easy to disperse this crowd, so I'll just ignore them for now. If they get annoying in the future, which they unfortunately probably will, I'll deal with it then, but as of right now, I'm greatly enjoying their praises; it's like music to my ears." Replied Elif lightly with a slight smile as he summoned his Quạt tay and lightly fanned himself before turning around and glancing at the massive crowd of admirers, which had grown to nearly twice the size it initially was.
"Of course, it's music to your ears; a narcissistic Prince such as yourself would never refuse praises." Said Eyvor blandly with a shake of her head as she glanced at Elif, who smirked before winking at her.
"Ho, no need to be so jealous, Eyvor; they'll never get treated so well by me as I do to you. You're far more special than any of them." Remarked Elif with a faint, seductive smirk hidden beneath his Quạt tay as he leaned closer to Eyvor and whispered into her ear, causing her to blush.
"I-I'm not jealous, Prince Elif." Muttered Eyvor softly with a reddish hue atop her transparent cheeks, causing Elif to chuckle before glancing at Shelia and Echo.
"What about you two? You're not jealous, right? I wouldn't want any of you three to get jealous over little ol' me." Asked Elif with a smile as he glanced between Shelia and Echo, who both shook their heads while wryly smiling.
"Hey, Prince Elif, I'm jealous!" Said Goliath, his deep and loud voice momentarily overpowering the screams of thousands of women behind them.
"Oh, you are, Goliath? Well, that is unfortunate; do better at controlling your emotions." Commented Elif with a raised eyebrow as he gave Goliath a bland look before turning around and ignoring him, causing them to all chuckle while he laughed the loudest.
Once we neared the Inn, the two servants standing beside each door opened them for our group while specifically giving me a slightly weird look, probably curious about the thousands of fan girls behind us, but other than that, they didn't bother asking me as we six continued into the building. When we entered, I slightly furrowed brows and looked back at the doorway, and I wasn't the only one as everyone else did the same, including our servants, well, except for Illumia and one of Birger's.
"We're no longer in the OverRealm." Muttered Shelia lightly in slight surprise as she gazed outside while everyone else silently nodded, only for the double doors to promptly close, separating them from the OverRealm.
While I wasn't expecting an Inn to have a pocket dimension incorporated into its building, it wasn't anything we hadn't experienced before, so other than being slightly taken aback, we continued like usual, walking down the lobby as we headed toward what looked to be the receptionist's deck, which just so happened to be a woman.
"Eyvor, do you know anything about this Inn? You're the one who brought us here?" Asked Birger curiously as he observed the interior decorations of the building before glancing at Eyvor, who was doing the exact same.
"No, I don't know much; my Father has suggested I head towards Regal Inn, but other than the location, he refused to tell me anything, saying I should experience the Realm Sect firsthand." Replied Eyvor lightly with a shake of her head while admiring the lobby, causing Birger to nod while Echo sighed.
"Haa, I wish my parents had told me something regarding the Realm sect; I know absolutely nothing about this place." Muttered Echo with a sigh as she lowered her head while her six arms lifelessly dangled by her side.
"Well, did you bother to ask them anything? How about looking through your Clan's library for information on the Realm sect?" Asked Shelia with a raised eyebrow as she glanced at Echo, who shook her head, causing her face to twitch slightly.
"Well then, that's your problem, Echo; you should've been properly preparing for your stay at the Realm sect instead of appreciating your muscles like you always do." Added Shelia sternly while eying Echo, who sighed once more before reluctantly nodding.
"Haa, I know; what about you, Shelia? Do you know anything about the Realm sect?" Asked Echo curiously as she lifted her head and looked at Shelia while flexing her muscles, which helped to improve her mood.
"N-No, my Master refused to tell me anything and then even forbade me from entering the library in search of knowledge regarding the Realm sect, having said the same thing Eyvor's Father said." Stated Shelia awkwardly with a slight blush, causing everyone to stare blankly at her, further embarrassing her.
"Hmph, what? At least I tried, alright." Added Shelia with a slight huff as she glanced between Elif, Eyvor, Echo, Goliath, and Birger before folding her arms and closing her eyes.
"Alright, Prince Charming, work your bewitching magic, and while you do that, I shall do the same on Sarah." Stated Biger with a sly smirk as he ignored Shelia and glanced at Elif, gesturing to the female receptionist before turning and approaching Sarah, who had been quietly talking with Marley and Idonea.
Rolling my eyes, I lightly shook my head and broke off from the group as I approached the receptionist, though while I wasn't doing this because Birger said so, I was simply going to seduce her so I could get the best possible room. Standing before the desk, I looked down at the human female before folding my Quạt tay and using it to lightly tap the desk, gaining her attention as she immediately looked up at me, only for a faint blush to appear, though she still kept her professionalism, which did cause me to raise an eyebrow.
"Welcome to Regal Inn, Prince Elif; I'm the manager, Lancy. How may I serve you?" Asked Lancy respectfully with a smile amidst her faint blush as she looked up at Elif, who smiled in return.
"How may you serve me? That depends; what type of service do you offer?" Replied Elif with a seductive smile as he outstretched his hand and grasped Lancy's hand while winking at her, causing her blush to slightly deepen, though she retracted her hand.
"We offer every service a traditional Inn does, along with a few added benefits." Said Lancy softly with a smile as she glanced at Elif, whose smirk only deepened at her suggestive words.
"Ho, added benefits? Does one of those benefits happen to include you? Otherwise, I may head to a different Inn." Asked Elif in a sultry voice as he leaned forward on the desk before blowing Lancy a kiss, causing her blush to deepen even further while her heart beat far faster than normal.
"N-No, the added benefits don't include me, and I'm sorry if our Inn isn't up to your standard; I hope you have more luck at a different Inn." Stated Lancy with a slight stutter before regaining her composure as she smiled while looking up at Elif, who chuckled.
"You're quite the tough woman to crack; most would've fallen the instant they laid eyes upon." Said Elif lightly as he backed away from Lancy while gently fanning himself, his words causing her face to twitch slightly.
"W-Were you testing me, Prince Elif?" Asked Lancy with a respectful smile, though her eyes carried traces of annoyance.
"Testing? No, not at all. I was merely trying to seduce you so I could get the best possible room, and well, it didn't turn out how I expected." Remarked Elif with a shake of his head, his words causing Lancy's expression to twitch aggressively before she lowered her head and sighed.
"P-Prince Elif, the Regal Inn is reserved only for people of high status, such as the three major hegemonies; there are only three different styles of rooms to choose from." Stated Lancy softly in exhaustion as she looked at Elif, who raised an eyebrow before nodding.
"Hmm, yes, I can see that a normal Inn wouldn't even be able to afford a single one of these decorations." Muttered Elif with a nod as he glanced at the decorations before looking at Lancy, who sighed once more before grabbing six small crystals.
"These are your accommodations, Prince Elif; the crystals shall guide you to your rooms. If you need anything during your stay, plenty of servants will be at your disposal. I hope you enjoy your stay at Regal Inn." Declared Lancy with a slight smile as she handed Elif a golden crystal while Echo, Eyvor, Goliath, Shelia, and Birger were given silver crystals.
Holding the golden crystal in hand, I gave Lancy a nod before heading left towards the stairs while everyone else followed behind, leaving the lobby.
"Haa, c-can I be considered an added benefit?" Muttered Lancy with a slight blush amidst her pondering expression.
