Vol.2 Ch.59 We’ve Been Spotted

'Okay, just use a bit of mana to the crystal and some warm water should come out... This should be easy... Then I'll just clean myself up and I'll be able to get dressed and meet everyone for breakfast.' Rya told herself as she looked at her well-endowed, voluptuous, tanned, naked, elven body in the mirror.

While the Dark Elf was busy looking at her reflection, she heard the water spilling out over the side of the bathtub.

'Shit! Come on Ryan! What are you thinking about right now? Focus! You're wasting time. Quickly, hurry up and get cleaned.' Rya thought to herself as she stopped the water flowing into the tub.

"Haah... Way to make a mess Ryan," Rya said to herself as she tried to clean up the water but didn't know what she could use to soak it up with and she didn't want to use her only towel.

"Damn it!" Rya said out loud, "If only I was a water mage... I bet I could get this mess cleaned up without breaking a sweat," Rya told herself.

"Huh? I-I can feel a connection! Oh wow! This is amazing! It's like controlling earth, but not? Okay, you got this Ryan." Rya said as she started to move the water around by using her mana.

"Hmm... Not bad for a first go... But I need to practice some more before I am comfortable using it in a battle situation... I wonder if I had a spell book, could I learn how to cast some awesome water magic?... That would be sweet... But for now, I guess I'll keep practicing by manipulating water for now" Rya said to herself as she continued to practice her newfound ability for another 5 to 10 minutes while cleaning herself.

"Okay. I should get dressed and meet up with the others." Rya said to herself as she started to put her new clothes on.

'Damn it! Looks like we got to skip breakfast... I really wanted breakfast... Gah! Focus Ryan!... We might be in danger so pull your head out of your ass... I need to get Quin, Dalia, and Percy before getting out of here. Hopefully, they haven't taken too long.' Rya thought to herself.

Rya makes her way back to their room as she opens the door quickly.

"Quin, quickly get the things we... need?..." Rya was interrupted by a naked Quin, who was in the middle of putting on some new underwear. This was the first time Rya had a good look at Quin's body and she couldn't help but notice how perfectly sculpted he was and her eyes couldn't help but drift towards his well-endowed manhood that put her old self to shame.

"Whoa! Rya!?... Could you knock?" Quin said as he quickly pulled his underwear up to hide his manhood.

Quin sighed and shook his head. He looked around for a moment and found his pants. He pulled them on quickly and looked at Rya again.

"Grab Percy and Dalia. I'll get our gear ready. We're going to head to the Baron's palace, now. It should be safe there," Quin said as he started packing the backpacks with all their stuff.

"Got it! I'll be back," Rya replied before running off to get them.

Rya got to one of the bathrooms and found Dalia and Percy relaxing in the tub. They were surprised that Rya barged in out of nowhere.

"Guys come on, we gotta go... We've been spotted!" Rya said as Percy and Dalia nodded at her with serious looks on their faces.

"Don't wait for us Lady Rya," Percy said as he and Dalia got out of the tub and grabbed their towels. With that Rya returned to the room to put her things away with Quin.

Quin got most of the gear packed away before Rya, Dalia, and Percy made it back into the room. They each grabbed their own packs before heading outside where Sir George was waiting for them.

"Good, you made it. Lady Rya has a sharp eye, we've been spotted, alright. Whoever it is, is still waiting in the common room," Sir George said as he grabbed his pack from Percy.

"We must make haste to the Baron's Palace, where we will be safe for a while. Let's just hope that whoever it is, is working alone," Quin said as he started walking down the street, heading towards a busier road to blend in with the crowd.

The group made their way towards the center of the city where the palace is located. It will take them about an hour to get to the gate leading to the palace. They tried to keep calm and quiet as they walked the bustling streets of Ironside.

'H-How did she spot me!? No one has ever detected me when I use my stealth cloak!' Nieren thought to herself as she hid in the corner of the room waiting for the group of adventurers to leave.

After an hour of hiding, Nieren kept thinking about the situation as she sat in the corner of the room. She felt like she was missing something important here. Something that would tell her how to spot if Rya was a treacherous creature.
