The sun was already high in the sky and illuminating the whole earth. All living creatures had long ago awakened from their sleep, but there was one, who was still sleeping.
"Cool." That was the first word Evan said as soon as he woke up.
A night with Ella was an unexpected but very pleasant surprise that he simply could not refuse. But Evan's good mood was not due to that at all.
It was all about magic. Evan had already chosen three spells, and today he was going to practice using them.
It was almost ten o'clock in the morning. Ella had left long ago, leaving Evan alone.
The young man got out of bed and quickly changed his clothes. Evan didn't put on his armor, as he didn't see the point in doing so. He didn't think there was any chance of them being attacked right there in the mansion.
Evan was about to leave when he noticed one unpleasant thing, and that was the sll. He certainly didn't sll disgusting, but a relaxing bath wouldn't be a bad thing.
He did not know where the bathroom was, however, it was no problem to get the information he needed. Once out of the room he quickly t the maid, who took him where he needed to.
...
. Evan found himself in a separate building. There he could take a bath and relax.
When the maid had taken him to the exit of the manor, Evan already suspected sothing, but not that. It was a real mini-mansion, which could easily be lived in by a very wealthy man. But to Zak, it was just a bathroom.
There was a couple of showers, bathrooms, hot springs, pools, and the so on. Firstly, they passed the servants' area and Evan was shocked that the servants had such good facilities. He saw many servants showering and bathing in the hot springs.
"Mr. Evan, this way." While the young man marveled at the strangeness of the whole estate and the position of the servants in it, the maid took him to another part of the building.
It was empty because no servants were allowed in.
The girl was about to leave. After she had shown him everything here, she was about to get back to her duties. But, the young man suddenly stopped her: "Who's allowed to take a bath here?"
Evan roughly understood the answer he was going to hear, but he was still curious. Maybe there was soone else important in this mansion that he didn't know about.
The maid hesitated for a mont and then answered, "Only you, Mr. Zak and Miss Margaret."
It was just as Evan had expected. He got the answer to his question and headed forward, but now the maid asked him a question, "Mr. Evan, what kind of clothes should I bring you? Plain or expensive?"
. Evan fully appreciated the aning of this question. The maid's words showed what kind of man Zak was. Other rich people might go around even in fancy dress, but not Zak. This made Evan very happy.
He looked at her and answered with a small smile on his face.
The maid nodded and left.
Evan liked the fact that he would be bathing alone, in absolute silence. Without thinking long, he threw off all his clothes and headed straight for the hot springs.
Evan looked at his still skinny and weak body that Trevor had left him. It was fixable, though, and only ant that he had room to improve.
Splash.
Evan plunged into the warm water and at once felt himself much better.
The hot bath had a wonderful tonic effect that helped Evan not only to rest, but also gave him ti to think about magic.
.
Evan wanted to learn everything he could from Zak and practice his spells.
He even had the idea of checking out how the "Magic Missile" worked underwater, but he knew that if he did, he would ruin everything here.
After all, Evan was a guest and he had got a shelter here, moreover provided with regal conditions.
...
After about twenty minutes, Evan heard footsteps approaching him. He turned around and saw the maid, with a set of clothes in her hands.
The girl said nothing, bowed, and left the clothes beside him.
"Wait a minute." Evan called out to her.
"Do you need sothing, Mr. Evan?"
The young man grinned and answered lightly, "Just want to ask you sothing. Do you know where Zak is?"
When they were going to the bathroom, Evan looked around, but he didn't see Zak anywhere.
The girl calmly replied, "Mr. Zak has gone into town on business. He shouldn't be back until tomorrow evening."
Evan nodded and let the maid go.
