End the day.

Just as Amara said, the lotion she purchased actually causes the water to become a beautiful, glistening pink, with a subtle flowery aroma that is quite relaxing. All four of you have a good, long soak, and one without any further intense sexual escapades. Yes, it is possible to have a group bath without someone getting bent over. While you do enjoy the view of some wet, glistening knockers, it's a really relaxing experience to just rest with your closest friends. It really lets some things sink in, no pun intended, watching them chat and giggle, and looking at your beautiful castle. It's yours. You earned it. While you know you're not the strongest in the world--far from it--you did start at the bottom when you first appeared in Abso. Now you're called Demon King, with a castle to match, and the title isn't as bad as you first thought it would be. You'd still rather be able to go actually visit cities without the looming threat of arrest or ****, especially considering you didn't do anything, but perhaps that will be remedied in the near future.

After the bath, the four of you split up to your own bedchambers. It'll be a nice rest. Without the modern technology of a heating system, you worry about the chill of autumn and the eventual winter, especially up in the mountains, though it's been all right so far. This region is definitely a warmer area of the world, perhaps closer to the equator, but this is also a very well-made castle. It's nothing like castles you know from Earth. The hot bath helps as well.

With the oven being magic, and the bath as well, you imagine it's more than possible to have air conditioning, heating, and more, if you find the right people. You also can't help but wonder about other earthlings. You learned long ago that it's a known theory--the possibility of people appearing from another world, perhaps specifically Earth. However, you've only met one another, and it was under the same circumstance as you. Though you also found those magazines in the cyclops' cave, so there has to have been others. Maybe some of them even created some of the technology that exists. Anything could have been changed by somebody like you being summoned years or even decades ago. Centuries even.

These are the thoughts that permeate your mind sometimes as you lay in bed in a new world (of hopeless hotties).

For now, you have a mission. It's time to finally investigate the new king, and discover the fate of Queen Catherine II. You have connections to the city now, thanks to knowing of the criminal underworld, which is exactly the type of thing a Demon King would use to his advantage.

It's time for action. I can't let this asshole king walk all over me. I need to figure out of he's been tricked, or if he really is just an evil dick who for one reason or another wants me and my friends taken out of the picture. If that's the case, he's gotta be doing it for some reason. Doing it for someone. Either way, I think there are more people involved than just him. If anyone knows more, or can learn more, it's Shadow Garden. I never thought I'd be talking to a crime syndicate, but they pushed me this far. And honestly, the two people I know who are apart of them have been nothing but nice to me.

The sun set hours ago. Night is definitely here. There's a lot to do, so you should get some sleep. Thankfully, after such a wonderful evening, your body feels as if you're laying on clouds. And the bed is large enough to where you can easily avoid the... result of earlier fun.

As your eyes flutter shut, you drift off.
