「There it is. Come on in.」

Saying that, Mira entered the spirit mansion, a mysterious building that appeared thanks to Summon Arts. But the two spellcasters Ettie and Colette were so enticed by the shower that they entered without hesitation.

「Woah… this is so cool!」

「There might be no furniture, but it’s still a proper home…」

It was a bit dreary inside, but the two were still surprised to see an actual house inside.

Meanwhile Mira gave them a quick tour, telling them how she combined the incredible power of water, ice, and fire spirits to regulate the air temperature, or have a warm shower, as well as a functional toilet and kitchen, making it as functional as a regular house.

「This is the power I gained by forming a contract with a mansion’s man-made spirit. So, what do you think? Aren’t summoners incredible?」

Mira turned around triumphantly once she was done explaining. With her skills, she could spend time at home no matter what environment she was in. The two girls had spent a long time in the dungeon so they understood how convenient that was. Mira also knew that, which was why she put so much effort in explaining it.

Her plan was successful, as Ettie and Colette surveyed the room with eyes full of amazement.

「May I turn the faucet?」

「Of course, go ahead.」

Ettie looked at the kitchen’s faucet with curiosity and asked Mira, the homeowner, before turning it. 「Ahh, water… so much fresh water…」 she muttered, her eyes tearing up with emotion at the sight of the clear and cold liquid.

Meanwhile Colette was completely still, holding the toilet’s door open. She only kept mumbling 「Living room… running water…」 on and on. There were many aspects to life on top of having sustenance, some of which involved getting rid of things. Adventurers faced even more struggles with those aspects, especially if they were female.

Mira watched how much seeing that had affected them, and thinking to herself that women could really be a handful sometimes.

But soon after Hans’ face peeked through the front door, which had been left open.

「What’s this..? It looks just like a regular house, I can’t believe summoners can do this.」

Hans looked around in wonder. It looked like a somewhat small house, but the fact that it stood so deep inside a dungeon made it special. But those words were exactly what Mira had been trying to obtain.

「I know, I know. This is the true power of summoners.」

It did not take long for the rest of Hans’ group to gather around him, curious about the house as well. Soon after other adventurer groups also arrived, wondering what this was all about, and voice their amazement seeing the faucet with running water.

One of the adventurers spoke to Mira.

「Hey, that water is coming from a spirit, right? Could you give me some? I’ll obviously pay for it.」

The adventurer held two empty containers in his hands. It seemed like his group had miscalculated the amount of provisions they needed, and were running low on water.

「Sure, I don’t mind. Feel free to fill them up.」

Mira happily obliged the man’s request. He thanked her profusely by joining his hands together almost in prayer, then rushed to fill the containers with water.

Seeing that, many other adventurers also lined up, wanting some water themselves.

Mira accepted all requests, obtaining a decent amount of Magic Stones in exchange. She calculated they were worth at least 200,000 Rils in total. The water was produced by a spirit and a little of Mira’s mana, but her mana pool was so large that she barely took a hit, and got a large sum in exchange, making her rather pleased with the trade.

She decided to keep it secret just how hard it was to contain a grin every time she took some Magic Stones.

Once everyone had bought as much water as they wanted, she noticed there were still around ten adventurers outside. All of them females.

At first Mira thought they wanted water too, but she quickly realized the true reason.

「Wait, do you want to take a shower then?」

She struck her head out of the door and asked them, and they nodded. Just like the other two spellcasters, they were all dying for a shower.

「Hmm alright, you can go in after the first two. But there’s so many of you, so would you mind going in two at a time?」

Mira did not know how long each one of them would take, but she had the impression that girls took long showers, so she felt it would be faster to let them in two at a time, even if it would get a little tight.

「We don’t mind!」

「We could even go in all at the same time!」

They had been starved from showers for so long that they would do anything for a shower.

「Alright then, just wait for a bit, you can decide in which order you’ll go in the meantime.」

Saying that, Mira closed the door and went to the first two, who were impatiently waiting in a corner.

「Sorry for the wait.」

She headed to the door next to the toilet, which she opened as she proudly said, 「And this is the shower room.」

「Ohh, it’s actually a shower, incredible!」

「Thank you very much!」

While small, the building was based off of a noble’s mansion, so the two rejoiced seeing that it had a proper shower as well.

「Also, I’m sorry but could you go in together? There are others waiting who also want to shower.」

「Yes, I don’t mind!」

「It’s no problem at all!」

The two replied instantly and not waiting any further began to undress there. The spirit mansion did not have a dressing room, so they had to do that in the living room.

Mira did her best to avoid getting a nosebleed as she told them 「Enjoy yourselves,」 and comfortably sat on her special sleeping bag in a corner of the room.

But she also could not stop herself from staring at the two girls, who were down to their underwear now.

They took even that off without hesitation. Their bodies were on the athletic side, though as spellcasters they did not require powerful muscles, so they still retained soft feminine curves. Ettie’s was more plump and springy, while Colette was thinner, but still beautiful. Mira greatly enjoyed being able to watch both of them.

The two did not look nervous being naked like that. Though that was not surprising, as they were both girls, and so was Mira, the homeowner.

(Yes… this is a sight for sore eyes!)

That also meant that the two would not notice Mira’s lecherous gaze.

Mira watched them disappear inside the shower room, pretended not to hear the loud noises outside as the others decided in which order to go, and began preparing dinner.

She would cook the same meal as the previous night, a lot of meat and vegetables stewed together in a pot.

She took out her utensils and ingredients, then began cutting the meat, cutting the vegetables, and then throwing them into a pot with water.

At that point the door of the shower room opened and the two girls peeked out.

「Mira, I’m really sorry to be so selfish, could we ask for something more?」

Colette asked, her exposed skin shiny from the water. She was not doing that intentionally, but the way she looked resembled a girl on her first night over with her lover, making her look strangely alluring.

「Sure, what do you want?」

Mira nodded, grinning perversely. But she decided to respond in a gentlemanly and well-mannered way.

「See, we kinda want to wash our underwear too. So… can we?」

「We’re in a bit of a pickle. All we need is enough sets to last us for three days.」

They had nearly run out of clean pairs of underwear by then, even though they had tried to make it last. They did not seem to mind being naked in front of Mira, but were embarrassed to talk about underwear.

The way they fidgeted only stirred Mira’s excited mind more, but she pushed those thoughts aside to respond with a calm face.

「I see. I don’t really mind, wash as much as you need.」

Keeping quiet about embarrassing matters was a core principle for maidens. Mira forced herself to produce a kind smile and replied positively.

「Thank you!」

「You’re a lifesaver!」

They looked so happy they were about to burst into tears as they thanked Mira, collected their underwear that lay on the floor, and returned to the shower room.

The moment the door was closed, Mira’s smile twisted again, her eyes narrowing at the closed door.

(So being wet enhances their appearance by 30%, interesting.)

Noting the fundamental truth she had just discovered, she focused on cooking again in a good mood.
