137 Quack doctor 2
Anne did make it easy for Yunan to find her apprentice, the only girl with a sceptre crowned with twin snakes. Yunan approached the girl carefully and announced his intentions clearly, god knew how that woman's apprentice would be like, it was best to be safe than sorry.
"Ophelia, you can call me Phi or snake girl, either is fine, now can you tell me how did my teacher send some unknown stranger to pick me up?". Ophelia made a very reasonable demand. Yunan did not know how to say this in a crowded place like the guild hall so he leaned in and whispered "she is naked in my nursery room, refusing to budge, and drooling at the sight of my super collection of medicinal supply".
"Lead the way" Ophelia had the same glint in her eyes her master did back then, she was definitely a healer with a thirst for knowledge and experience, as for the skills, he left that for the future, he certainly did not wish to find out the hard way. Upon returning to the villa and seeing her master's clothes still on the ground Ophelia pouted and picked them up, evidently she is used to this kind of thing.
Yunan led the girl to his master bedroom, and she followed, she expected to see her master in some kind of compromising situation, but she was lost when the bedroom was empty and Yunan headed to the door obviously not part of the villa. She followed through the door into a new space, vast and luxurious, she was about to ask what is this place when she heard Yunan ask in mid air "genie, where are they? Is there enough food and wine for a feast?", She almost jumped out of her skin when she saw a blue ball appear and start complaining.
"Seriously master, what is wrong with bringing over nice guests, i had to use the spatial lock to prevent them from stealing half the house and eating the other half, when i told them they need my permission and yours to do anything here, they tried to capture me, i had no choice but to stop them from all actions, you can find them drinking themselves to perdition on lava wine in the cleansing pool".
"You did a good job genie, thank you for protecting my home, go check if there are enough supplies to run the places for a few weeks, if there is not send the maids to the market, also link my armor to you, and use it to gain all you need in the future". With that Yunan walked with Ophelia to the bathroom, "i'll explain later" Yunan could feel the questioning gaze drilling into his back as they walked.
Inside the bath he found everyone there Debauchery, Anne, Reina, Lili, Leol, Muscles, and the maids who still did not tell him their names only letting him call the maid or slave. they were all chatting happily as they soaked in the milky pool. Yunan took off his own clothes and jumped right in and as soon as he popped up, he was in a choke hold by Balin who was holding a deep grudge. Ophelia also joined the team in the pool shyly with her underwear on, but was striped by her master upon entry.
When the beating was over and Balin was not holding as much of a grudge Debauchery introduced Anne. "This is Anne, she is a quack doctor, good doctor, but her methods are questionable in the field of healing, she kept us in one piece so far and has been doing a good job at it, she is in love with your infirmary, and she is ready to pay any price to buy it". Anne then introduced Ophelia " this is Phi short for Ophelia, she is talented in healing and my only apprentice, please take care of each other, also how much for the whole garden, i want to buy that too"
Yunan could feel pity from Reina and Lili, they did not say who built this house yet and the indignation of Balin was because he was not there to witness the house being built, a shudder passed down Yunan's spine as he thought about the implications. However he had to say it " can you afford anything made by Hephaestus himself?" The question had all Balin needed to bury his head in Leader's chest and start bawling his eyes out, asking loudly why he never gets to meet his idol and this guy met him twice and got a custom built item for him just by virtue of being there.
After the bath, the maids went to make dinner while Yunan and the rest headed for the control room where Yunan introduced what he knew about the place and the genie, there again he was assaulted by Debauchery because some lucky ones should not go all happy all the time. Yunan also promised to allow the group here to use his infirmary when injured, he also made the genie give each one of them a ring to monitor and teleport them directly here in case of mortal danger, otherwise the rings can be used to communicate by leaving messages to each other.
It was a brilliant idea Hephaestus had, but since he did not have many living acquaintances and all of them could send holographic images of themselves if they wanted to chat, he did not have a chance to use it, until Yunan told him that only important people can enter the house, he thought of the function, and implemented it. The most surprising part was that neither Anne nor Ophelia made much of a fuss about the house being built by Hephaestus, nor were they that impressed by the genie and the house itself, however, upon visiting the garden, the could identify and drool over any and all medicinal herbs, especially the honey bath.
Yunan told them the secret of the Queen be if they promised not to use it to make a profit or divulge the information to others, otherwise either the Queens will annihilate the adventurers or there will be no honey left in the dungeon because greed is the first instinct humans act upon most of the time.
