Chapter 400 - 217: Updating Skills (2)
That disappointment no longer had a reason to exist, however. Those strong bonds she had built could keep growing stronger now. There was a possibility that all previous limits she had encountered in the past had been released now, as maybe they were only in place for the game.
Mira understood that there were still a lot of things that had changed from the game days which she had not noticed yet.
That reminded her of the copies she made of Soul Howl's re
The washing bag was packed with laundry, but Mira believed it would work regardless, pouring water from the faucet into it and closing the bag.
「Now I just have to wait… It really is a nifty device.」
After pressing a button, the washing bag began making a rumbling and sloshing noise. Only that was enough to wash clothes showed just how impressive the technology from the Dinowal Store was. Then again, a proper manual washing would likely provide better results, but as Mira's clothes were not too dirty, the bag would be more than enough.
「Just a little more…」
Once she was done putting everything to wash, Mira turned around to look at the bathtub again. Now it was mostly filled, the water level filling four out of five parts of the bathtub's capacity. Mira would easily be able to enter the bathtub and have the water cover her up to her shoulders, but she resisted the impulse.
Making the water overflow and splash on the floor was an important part of the experience of taking a bath for her.
「Oh, before I forget, that would also pair up perfectly with the occasion!」
As Mira imagined what that moment would feel like, she remembered something else that would enhance it even more. A drink to cool off after a bath. Feeling the refreshing liquid against her warm body was the only proper way to finish a bath.
And Mira had already bought everything she needed to prepare even before she was able to take a bath in the spirit mansion.
「I have to properly celebrate my first bath after all, I have to choose the perfect one…」
Mira opened her Item Box and carefully looked through everything she had gathered, trying to find the one that caught her eye the most.
After many minutes of consideration, she finally made her choice and took out one bottle. Then she also brought out one of the various magic devices sold by the Dinowal Store.
It was known as a simple chilling box, which was small enough to be carried by one hand, and as its name suggested, served to cool down items. Anything that was placed inside the box would quickly be cooled down. It also had a companion device called the simple heating box, which was self-explanatory enough.
Mira inserted a Magic Battery into the chilling box, then placed the bottle she chose within. Soon a sound similar to a fan spinning could be heard. It was only a matter of time before the bottle was cooled off.
Once she was done setting all of that up, she heard the sound of water spilling in the bathroom. Looking there, she saw that the bathtub was finally full of water.
「Finally!」
Mira ran inside the bathroom to close the faucet, then slowly put her hand in the bathtub. The water was Mira's preferred temperature, around 40°C.
「Yes, this is everything I wanted!」
Seeing that everything was exactly the way she wanted, Mira excitedly submerged her right foot in the water. Soon she felt the warm embrace of water, and as the heat transmitted into her, a prickly sensation ran up her body. At the same time, she moved her left foot into the water, and finally began to sit down.
「Ahhhhh~ This is heaven.」
Mira let out a delighted voice as she relished that feeling. The water also began to spill onto the bathroom's floor, filling the room with a sound similar to a waterfall. Though as her body was rather small now, the volume of displaced water was quite diminished compared to before. But the feeling it gave her remained the same.
There was that pinch of guilt from wasting so much water that poked at her back, but mixed with the heat assaulting her entire body it instead turned into an exhilarating feeling.
All she had left to do was to leisurely stretch her legs out, feeling like she stood at the top of the world, and thoroughly enjoy her time in the bath.
