Inheritor Of Magic: The Magi King

Chapter 576 576 The Good Bed

Wolfe smiled back at the Coven Leader, then changed his outfit to add a simple golden masquerade mask to his look.

"There is no need to launder this particular outfit. It's nothing more than an armour spell to begin with." He explained.

"So, you just keep an armour spell active any time that you're awake? Isn't that a bit too paranoid?" The Coven Leader asked.

Wolfe gave a shrug in response. "It's not really a matter of paranoia. I just don't own any fancy or formal clothing, so I make it with magic."

The Coven Leader nodded. "Oh, so it's like that. I can see how it would be easier to just make the right outfit with magic, if I had that sort of mana to spare all the time."

That made Priya giggle. "He doesn't even notice the expenditure anymore, it's just as natural to him as breathing. It's also not just the formal occasions, he makes all his clothing with armour spells instead of asking someone to make him clothing with magic."

The Coven Leader gave Wolfe a strange look.

"Are you perhaps an exhibitionist? Enjoying the feeling of being unhindered under your magic?" She asked in a tone that he would have called polite, if not for the actual words.

Wolfe turned to Priya. "See what you've done? You're giving them strange ideas about me. I can assure the Coven Leader that my clothing choice is not the result of a desire to be an exhibitionist."

The driver did her best not to laugh as she pulled up in front of the Coven Leader's house. This man they called Wolfe was a strange one, and though it was fairly obvious that he was a Demon, since he was using magic, she thought that he might actually be an easygoing sort of person.

They exited the vehicle, and the butlers from the Coven Leader's residence rushed out to assist them into the mansion.

"Please, make yourself at home. There are toiletries and all sorts of soaps available, should you prefer a particular scent. I will find a dress for Madam Priya, and I will meet you here again in a few hours.

My apologies for not accompanying you all afternoon, but at my age, I require a bit more sleep than most." She apologized.

"Oh, Wolfe, why don't you fix her bed as well? I'm certain that she will appreciate it." Priya suggested.

"Fix my bed?" She asked.

"It's a thing that we developed in the Fae Forest. You see, certain layered arrays can be arranged to create the most comfortable mattress that you have ever rested on, perfectly adjusted to your body, so there are no hard spots or excess pressure anywhere. I'm told they're the height of luxury." Wolfe explained.

These days he rarely slept, but the Coven Leader was well past the age when she would be able to get by on meditation alone.

She, naturally, was quite suspicious about letting a strange man, much less a strange demon, into her bedroom, but the promise of a better night's sleep was irresistible. Wolfe recalled the first time that he had done this for someone, the matron of a family in Myrrh Coven, and she had slept through the entire evening.

If the Coven Leader did agree to let him upgrade her sleeping arrangement, he would have to make sure to send someone up to get her ready in time.

After a moment's consideration, the elderly witch's curiosity won out, and she led them up to her room, along with a pair of maids that Wolfe suspected were bodyguards and one of the butlers.

"This is my preferred room, does the actual bed matter?" She asked.

Wolfe shook his head. "Not at all. I can even cast it with the blankets on the bed."

With a flare of magic, he added the usual bed enhancements, along with a temperature control and a minor Mana Gathering array, to the room.

"There. That's all it takes." He explained.

The Coven Leader nodded to one of the maids, and she climbed into the bed, fully dressed, then pulled the blanket up to her neck and sighed.

"I don't think there is a sleeping spell on the bed, but if I lay here for more than a few minutes, I'm definitely falling asleep, Madam." The maid explained.

She gave Wolfe a longing look, and Wolfe dug into his pocket for a coin. He cast the array to create the mattress effect and flipped the coin to her.

"Here, it's not as fancy, but if you activate it on your bed, you should get at least halfway there." Wolfe teased.

He knew that they would spend ages trying to replicate that array, but it was one of the spells that no witch could duplicate, no matter how hard they tried.

"Thank you so much, Mister Wolfe, I will remember your kindness." The maid gushed, while the others gave her envious looks.

Priya sighed. "You just don't stop, do you? You see a pretty girl, you have to show off for her."

Wolfe smirked at her. "It worked on you, didn't it? Why mess with a good thing?"

"Go shower. I'll see you in an hour, and we can talk about what comes next." She laughed, as the butler gestured down the hall to the rooms assigned to them.

"Right this way if you please. The Coven Leader will be back with you shortly." The Butler informed them, eager to get the two strangers out of the normally secure areas of the house.

"We appreciate it. After being in the forest for so long, the smell of a big city really starts to get to you. I didn't notice that everything at home smelled like trees and magic until I got here." Wolfe replied.

"That sounds. Strange. How can something smell like trees and magic?" The Butler asked, confused.

Wolfe shrugged. "Magic users have sharper senses, so they notice all the little things. I'm sure that to the Coven Leader, we smell like we've been playing in the park. If I find a similar scent among the ones in the shower, I will let you know."

Most of them were likely to be extremely mild, as they were intended for powerful witches with sensitive noses, but the Butler might still be able to smell some of them.

"I understand, sir. Enjoy your shower."
