Back-to-back days full of exciting festivities left Zeta feeling exhausted even after sleeping for several hours last night. She planned to take it easy today but still wanted to further indulge in the joyan activities while they lasted. After getting the approval to do so from Aster she no longer had worries about reporting back late or within a set time. Her long-awaited vacation resumes!
Letting off a big yawn, Zeta rubbed her eyes before looking around. She had dozed off inside of her room's large bath. It was like a private hot spring she could enjoy to her heart's content. Seeing how she planned to spend several days here she used her money to book out a room for a week.
‘Money well spent’ she thought to herself before standing up and stepping out of the onset, letting the steamy hot water droplets run streaks down her body. Zeta grabbed a set of towels she had laid out and wrapped one around her body and the other around her hair.
She then went to the main room, where a chilling breeze blew in from the open patio door. The once sunset-looking room was now a cool velvet color, the gentle white bed that resembled clouds was now illuminated by the grace of the moon's light piercing into the room. Zeta's eyes were drawn to the large perverse moon peeking into her room, gazing through the cracks in the blinds and doorway making its presence known.
“Nightfall already, guess I was out longer than I thought.” She thought as she dressed under the moon's light, adorning a royal blue dress that reached down below her knees. The blue dress was coated in multi elemental mana particles to give it a sparkly effect whenever under any form of light. Next came her platform boots that gave a slight boost in height of 2 inches. Once Zeta was done dressing herself up she checked herself out in the mirror.
“I am looking mighty fine I must say so myself” With a big smile Zeta remarked as she took on poses to look at different angles of herself in the mirror.”Moonlight is fading, time to get going”
Feeling as if she was set for the night she made way to the large extravagant restaurant she saw one her way back to the inn last night. There seemed to be a lengthy line waiting to enter the restaurant, wasting no time Zeta casted a spell turning herself invisible and heading to the front entrance. A lady wearing a tuxedo holding a clipboard hugged against her forearm and bosom stood at the front of the line.
“Listen up everybody, whoever has a reservation please step to the right, as those who have no reservations please stay in this line and wait till seats become available! I repeat! All people with reservations to my right!” Her beautiful mature look was matched with a striking stern voice that caused movement within the densely populated line. Some people in line groaned as they grew irritated from the long wait while others moseyed their way over to the right of the woman to verify their reservations.
Being Invisible Zeta peaked from behind a group of 3 and noticed Salem’s name on the list. Not only was she surprised to see his name but an idea popped up in her mind. She walked behind several groups of people that were on the line for reservations and dispelled her magic unveiling her and the royal blue dress. Catching some eyes Zeta smiled at them before putting her finger to her mouth in a shushing gesture.
After 10 mins or so passed Zeta found herself face to face with the lady in the tuxedo.
“Hello doll, I'm here to complete my reservation plans with Salem, he should be inside waiting for me right about now” She confidently said with a smile.
The lady looked Zeta over and then checked her clipboard.Tracing her fingers down and then paused.
”hmmmm” she placed her hand free hand over her left ear creating a magic circle between her palm and ear.
“Confirm the reservation status of Salem for me…”
“One sec…He is here and said to send anybody in for him, so whoever requested for him I guess they may be cleared…What do you think boss?”
“Sure, makes no big deal for us, he paid plenty and left an empty slot for whoever to join. First come first serve”
“Gotcha, will send her in then” She looks at Zeta and nods her head signaling for her to go in.
Zeta nodded her head ”Thank you” As Zeta made her way into the restaurant a server greeted her just beyond the entrance and guided her to Salem’s table. ”Please follow me, and be sure to stick close”
Zeta nodded and made sure to stick close to the server while also taking in the vast scenery of what was inside the restaurant. A huge stage for performers, a balcony to separate the different levels of seating, An overall dim light took over the venue but different colored spotlights lit up several different areas. This place was nothing short of lively and amazing. It was like entering a VIP establishment, something Zeta was sorta familiar with during her time spent traveling with Aster when younger.
It took a few minutes before reaching the medium sized table but there sat Salem, the familiar scent of him and Frosch could be smelt but she only saw the blue haired gentleman.
“Hopefully I didn't keep you waiting too long” Zeta said in a high spirited tone as she walked by Salem and sat down in the chair in front of him with a bright smile. Her dress dazzlingly shined the colors of the elements in the spotlight that was loosely shining down at the table where they sat.
