Chapter 4 - Part 15 (Book 1 - Fantasy World)

Han moved away from Brittany, who sighed at no longer having him near her.

Going over to the mirror, Han soon was able to admire himself. His reflection stared back at him, allowing him to see something he hadn't seen in years.

What stuck out to him the most was how he had lost a significant amount of weight. He looked a little healthier compared to his slightly pudgier body shape after years of eating at the office and not having the time to go to the public gym at school. The sight of his younger self brought back many memories of life when he finished high school and attended a university.

He saw how the clothes he wore were loose in some areas.

"Master, we can have a new outfit designed for you quickly," Brittany gracefully made her way from where she stood to where Han stood.

With a slight shake of his head, Han pulled in his will and imagined the clothes he wore in his mind. Slowly the outfit shifted and slid along his skin like the comforting embrace of one of his creations.

Seeing that the clothes fit his figure better, Han turned slightly to ensure there weren't any other spots he missed.

"Another benefit of attending this school is learning how people in this world use magic abilities," Han casually remarked after thinking about his own powers as his eyes searched for any errors which may have occurred after adjusting the outfit.

Seeing the mages from the Empire use their abilities to fight Queen made Han slightly curious as to what allowed people in this world to be able to use mana in the manner they do.

Han adjusted himself so he could see Queen's reflection.

"A wise decision, My Master." Queen bowed her head. "Their powers were not impressive, but it should not mean we should be arrogant about our superiority."

His eyes shifted to look at Helania's reflection.

"I agree with Queen. Even if our powers are magnitudes greater than humans, there is always the chance they have some kind of advantage over us. I would prefer us to be able to dominate our opponents than allow them to assert any pressure on us." Helania looked at Queen before turning her attention to Han.

Hearing their opinions, Han felt better about their position. Though he could tell that Queen didn't find humans to be anything remotely close to their level, it was more important that she made sure to anticipate any issues.

"I feel more assured that you are in charge of our forces," Han turned, his eyes staring into Queen's eyes.

Queen's eyes looked down, "There is no need for you to concern yourself, My Master. I will show that any doubts are unnecessary. Even if I must drag this world into the Lands of the Dead, they will be unable to form any opposition against you."

"We will also make sure to remain hidden, My Master," Helania added to Queen's words.

Han appreciated how Helania was able to keep an eye on the larger picture, knowing what he desired in this world. It made him think she would have no issues handling a multi-reality enterprise.

Queen closed her eyes before slowly opening them again, "My Master, it seems your guest has arrived at the inn."

Waving a hand at the maids with the mirror, the mirror was carried away back into the portal. The air shimmered before the tear in space slowly merged together, removing all traces of the damage.

Han couldn't help but grin, thinking of the Lady Knight's angry expression.

"Master?" Brittany tilted her head, her red shoulder-length hair cascading from her shoulders, slightly swaying in the air.

Walking over to the chair, Han slowly sat down, enjoying how comfortable it felt. He casually ran his index finger along the leather fabric, thinking how much the chair would've cost the inn. The opulence was a reminder that the room was designed for a noble. Nobles that inherited the position and lacked any talent.

Brittany walked back to stand behind him, laying her delicate, milky white hands on the chair.

Laying back, Han smiled upon feeling his creation massage his head again. Compared to the nobles that ruled the Kingdom, it paled in comparison to what he had access to, especially the care and love shown by his people.

Seeing their master preferring to relax while he waited for his guest, Helania and Queen sat beside each other on his right side, away from the door.

Another portal tore through the air, and several maids emerged from the glimmering surface. Each of them carried a tray with cups and teacups in addition to cream and sweeteners. The air was filled with a floral and sweet scent that lifted the atmosphere.

A few maids began placing items on top of counters and tables throughout their room.

Han raised an eyebrow until he smelled a soothing scent, indicating the maids had activated diffusers with therapeutic essential oils contained within. As he breathed in, his mind felt sharper and clearer. At the same time, his muscles felt relaxed, as though being inside a high-end spa. He may have never entered a luxury spa, but from what Beth had told him, the experience was magical.

A platter of fruits and vegetables was laid on the table with numerous sauces to dip them in.

"Master, would you care for a drink?" Helania placed a saucer with a cup on top in front of where Han sat.

"I would like that," Han watched as his creations moved in such a way that it looked like a performance.

Helania picked up the teapot, which had the patterns of stars and moons gently moving through an empty void. Tilting it slightly, a calm stream of tea poured out without causing any splashes inside the cup. The stream of liquid lacked any ripples, giving the impression of being solid. As the level of the tea rose in the cup, the stream stopped without drips.

Placing the teapot back on the table, Helania moved like a dancer, picking up a container with a golden viscous liquid inside. Using the spoon, honey was expertly added without any waste. Finally, the cream was added, pouring out of the cup and disrupting the surface of the amber-colored tea.

Using a spoon to stir the contents of the liquid without touching the cup, Helania removed the spoon before lifting it up to be present to Han.

"For My Master, a being without peer and captivating all we are." Helania's smile was like a sunrise on a clear morning.

"Thank you, Helania. Seeing you prepare this was a joy. Your elegant movements entranced me." Han took the saucer from his creation.

Han looked at the slightly tan tea, placing the cup close to his nose and smiling upon smelling the fragrant liquid. It was easy to tell that all the ingredients were beyond anything enjoyed on Earth. He imagined even a sip would be worth fortunes.

Taking a sip of the liquid, Han enjoyed the sensation of the tea, which was somewhere between being hot and warm. As it flowed down his throat, his body felt an ease similar to the comfort he experienced being surrounded by the beautiful women he created with how the tea felt as though it overflowed with love and care for his health.
