Karl nodded in understanding, then remembered that he actually had a skill suited to travelling to places like this.
{Planeswalker} World Dragon Patron Exclusive Skill. 100 Points. Allows portals to open between adjacent Realms the user is familiar with.
It hadn’t mattered before because he hadn’t been anywhere but the Chaos Realm, and he was able to leave there easily enough, thanks to his affinity for the Fundamental Rule of Chaos.
But being here was more like being on a whole other world. Not nearly as easy to simply come and go from.
The men’s side of the hot springs were already rowdy when Karl arrived because someone had made a joke about the Dwarves accidentally drowning in the bath if they sat down, and that turned into an argument about proportionate anatomy.
Karl’s dad walked in behind him and chuckled at the sight.
"You know, for all that has changed, it’s good to see that you didn’t forget your own people. Even though they’re so much more powerful than any of the miners, it’s still the same rowdy lot as you grew up with." He whispered.
From the edge of the springs, Slate Petros laughed.
"Come and sit, Senior Karl. Let me tell you about the Dwarven Mines."
Karl’s dad removed his robe, then got a shocked look on his face when it actually vanished.
[Oh, that is new.] The little Fae’s voice rang in Karl’s mind.
Indeed, it was. His father had just gained a system interface when he tried to remove an equippable item in the Fae Realm.
And he was a Warrior.
Of course, he was.
"Interesting. The System can still activate here, as long as it’s a system linked item. I didn’t even know that was possible." Matilda cheered from right behind Karl, making most of the others jump.
The Dragon was in the form of a mature and extremely busty Elven woman today, wearing a towel around her body, as was the custom for ladies outside the actual bath.
The men were much less modest, and Karl’s dad was shocked at the intrusion.
"Madam, I believe that this is the men’s bath." He stammered.
"It’s fine, I just came over to see how you had activated a System Interface when we’re not on the right planet. Sit, relax, this will only take me a few minutes." She declared, then tossed her towel to one of the small flying Fae and pulled him down into the springs.
