With the final match of preliminaries over Marcus exited the stadium he was in and after picking up Blitz made his way towards the inn he had booked.

It was a an incredibly nice inn called the Twisted Cats' Tails and its sign had two cats' tails intertwined.

Of all the places it had caught Marcus' attention mainly because it apparently had a huge open-air bath.

Riding up to the inn Marcus could only think that it looked completely out of place in the city that's architecture was more European because it looked like a Japanese style inn.

Naturally Marcus had already suspected that this place was built by someone from Earth.

Yet as he went into, the building for the first time all doubt left his mind as he saw two young girls running the front counter and the fact that they definitely had Asian characteristics.

However, that heritage was certainly a couple generations old, and neither of them looked entirely Asian.

Walking up to them Marcus said, "Hello my name is Irene Geist and I have a room booked here for the next two weeks."

One of the young girls bowed towards Marcus and said, "Please wait a moment while we check our books for you reservation."

The girl then quickly pulled out what looked like a notebook and began skimming through it before saying," Yes we have your reservation Lady Geist. If you would allow me, I will take you to your room."

Marcus followed the girl to is room which was on the first floor and actually was a large suit. He wanted to come back to a comfortable room after all of the fighting he was about to do so Marcus had spared no expense in his lodging.

"Here you are this is your room and your key." The young girl said as she unlocked Marcus' room and subsequently handed him the key.

"If you would like I can give you a tour of the facilities, or if you wish to relax in your room, I or any of the other staff can show you around at another time."

Putting on a nice smile Marcus responded saying, "I would love a tour of your facilities now, and thank you in advance for guiding me."

Of course, Marcus also had another motive other than being shown the inn and that was to figure out if anyone originally from earth was here.

Unfortunately, as Marcus probed the girl leading him around about who built the inn, she said it had been her great grandmother who had passed away around ten years ago.

'Guess I was a bit late. Oh well this is a big world and finding someone else from Earth was never going to be easy, though it is not like I am really trying to in the first place.'

So far Marcus had heard of or seen the influence others from Earth had had on this world, but he had yet to meet anyone else.

But it was not like he was actively trying to; it was just something interesting to do when the threads presented themselves.

Following along Marcus found the locations of the inn's facilities the only one that really interested him was the open-air bath.

"And here we have the open-air baths that our inn is famous for. The one with the red doorway is for women and the blue for men. It is in operation from dawn till a couple hours after dusk. Feel free to use it during any of those times. Of course, your room being a suit also has its own open-air bath albeit smaller."

After that the girl led Marcus back to his room and told him that if he needed anything during his stay to come and visit the front desk.

"Time to get what I paid for."

With his tour of the inn over, Marcus decided to head straight to the open-air bath first, since as always, he was down for a good soak.

However, as he arrived there were a couple of guards out front blocking the way and a small crowd of people had gathered around them trying to get into the bath.

It had only been a few minutes since Marcus had been here last and everything had seemed normal then, so he was wondering what was going.

Unfortunately, the answer to his question came soon as one of the staff members came forward and said, "We apologize for the inconvenience, but the open-air baths have been reserved by her Ladyship Baroness Cagna for the rest of the evening. We hope that you all can bear with us and to compensate for your inconveniences dinner service in the restaurant will be free tonight."

Hearing this Marcus immediately felt a sense of anger welling up inside him.

He had rented a room at this inn pretty much specifically for the large open-air bath that resembled a hot spring, and now he was not able to use it.

Heck he was a titled noble himself, but he had not felt so conceited as to have the entire bath reserved for himself.

'Guess I will just have to use the bath in my room.'

Walking back to his room Marcus was feeling sour until something dawned on him.

If it was just the baroness using the bath, naturally she would only be in the female side, and the male side would be empty.

A smirk appearing on his face Marcus slipped into a deserted hallway and went into his ghost form.

Now invisible and able to pass through walls, Marcus began floating towards the open-air baths and when he arrived, he slipped past the guards and into the men's area.

'As expected, its empty.'

Looking around the changing room, then the wash off station, and finally the bath itself, Marcus made sure he was alone before resolidifying and storing his clothing into his items box.

'Best to look the part.'

Shifting his form, Marcus decided to go back to himself, figuring since he was in the men's bath he should be a man, and just in case he got caught he would not get into any trouble a quick switch could not fix.

Sliding into the warm water of the large bath Marcus felt the refreshing water wash over him.

"Ah this is great. Sometimes being a ghost really has its perks."

Not only was Marcus able to enjoy the bath, but because of the baroness taking over the whole thing even though she was only using the women's bath, Marcus had the whole thing to himself.

Exploring the bath Marcus soon came across a small waterfall that was providing the warm water and decided to sit under it.

'This hits the spot; I think I might want to come here more often. Or better yet, I have more than enough room on my estate, I could definitely install something similar.'

Lounging about in the bath Marcus was having a great time letting himself go until he heard a 'When is dinner' from Roxene as she jumped out of his companion storage and splashed into the water.

'Oh, this feels nice, why did you not tell me you were in the bath' Roxene said, as she bobbed up in down in the water enjoying the warmth.

'Well for one you were asleep and told me not to wake you until dinner, and two, this is a public bath so you should not be here.' Marcus responded telepathically to Roxene.

However, the little wolf looked around before turning her head back towards Marcus and saying, 'No one else is here, so what does it matter.'

Sighing Marcus had no retort to that and decided to let Roxene relax as well, except after swimming around for a bit she got bored and splashed some water at Marcus.

'Hey Roxene, it is rude to play around in the bath.' 

'Yeah, but again no one else is here so let's have some furn.' Roxene said as she splashed some more water at him.

Being splashed in the face, Marcus looked over at Roxene before smirking before saying, 'This means war.'

Marcus then changed his form over to a magic beast he had devoured the soul of in the dungeon's waterfall area becoming a large otter the size of a rhino that had horns like an ibex.

With his new larger form Marcus swung his tail and sent a wave crashing down on top of Roxene washing her away.

But the little wolf pup was not done, and utilizing her supreme skill grew to a similar size as Marcus and was about to retaliate when they both heard someone screaming from the other bath.

"Guards, Guards, there is someone in the other bath."

'Oops.'

Realizing his mistake Marcus had gotten too relaxed and had completely forgotten about the baroness that was just a partitioning wall away in the other bath.

'Looks like we need to go Roxene, we can finish this another time.'

Seeing as how they did not want to get caught Marcus got Roxene back into his companion storage and went back into his ghost form.

He then saw two armored guards run into the bath looking around for the intruder.

However, even though the water was still moving from Marcus' and Roxene's playing around the perpetrators were already gone.

'Well, I guess we should head back to our room and get you dried off before going to get dinner. Hey and on the bright side it is free.'

Hearing this Roxene perked up at the mention of dinner and the two of them headed back to their room before enjoying a delicious dinner on the house.
