Dana rubbed her temples as she walked out of the shower late that night, wearing nothing but a towel and dripping water on the floor.
"Toss a healing spell, would you? I drank way too much." She complained.
"Twelve straight hours of shots after a double advancent wasn’t a good idea?" Karl joked as he watched Tian’s healing magic flow over her.
"Ah, thank you. We should have given up hours ago." Dana sighed.
Karl nodded. "That is true. It’s after midnight already, and one of us should probably be up to say goodbye to the guests who are leaving after lunch tomorrow."
Karl picked Dana up in one arm and peeled the towel off her with a smirk.
"I think we can spare at least a few more minutes, though."

Karl woke up the next morning to fox ears flicking at his face as Dana dread about sothing entertaining.
He didn’t bother to move, though he could see that it was late in the morning, by the sun through the curtains. They weren’t actually in any sort of rush, at least not until it was ti that guests were getting ready to head ho.
That was a mont that ca far too soon, and Dana had to hurry to shower so that they could get dressed and say farewell to the guests.
Karl was not being helpful.
While he was supposedly in the shower to help get them both clean faster, that was not at all what his actions suggested, and by the ti that they finally made it to the lobby, Matilda was almost ready to open the portals and start letting everyone head ho.
"Sorry for the delay, we were a bit slow getting going this morning. Is everyone headed out early?" Karl asked.
Matilda nodded. "Other than the ones who are going to the Tiny World, who are already there."
Karl quickly checked the separate space and found that the rest of his Guild mbers, plus Dana’s mother, were all in the Tiny World. He had been so busy lately that he had hardly had ti to even speak to them at his own wedding.
But, they didn’t seem like they had a bad ti.
Everyone was excitedly discussing the anities of the Fae resort, and making plans to find a way to co back here again in the future. It would be an expensive vacation, but they all got paid well.
Karl hugged his mother as Matilda opened the portal back to the Golden Dragon Nation.
He could see the Academy through the portal, and from there, it would be easy enough to get his parents back to their house. The Academy had plenty of mages, but Karl suspected that there would be governnt leaders who wanted to ask questions before his parents went ho.
After all, a destination wedding that took them out of the world entirely was certainly sothing that the Governnt would want so answers about.
"I don’t know how long it will be before I see you again, but I will try to make it so ti soon." Karl whispered, then activated [Follow , Little One]
{Champion Karl Offers Knowledge} Skill [Mystic Cooking] will be transferred to the Wallflower Mary Elanor.
Her eyes went wide, and Karl winked at her, then let his father usher her through the portal. He would find out in about five seconds that she had just activated the System Interface, but he was going to be imdiately questioned about the sa thing, so there was no harm in keeping them together for this part of their return trip.
"You let Cara influence you too much." Dana whispered.
"I think it’s funny, too." Rae whispered in Dana’s ear.
"Dammit, you always manage to sneak up on . Even now that I’ve actually got the advantage in power level, you still do it." Dana grumbled.
Rae smiled back at her. "Thank you. I appreciate the complint."
Dana rolled her eyes. Of course, Rae would take that as a complint. She had no awareness that people might not want to be startled, and she had very little sense of personal space.
"Shall we all prepare to head back to the Guild House? With this advancent, I’m sure that the Guild Alliance will be eager to find out how our skills stack up at Mythic Rank." Karl asked.
Dana smiled. "That’s a good point. But with none of the beasts at Mythic Rank, you’ll be at a disadvantage for so ti."
Karl chuckled, and Dana shrugged.
"Well, a disadvantage compared to your usual combat strength, anyhow. With your abilities, I suppose that it wouldn’t really be a disadvantage versus the average Raiding Team mber.
Do you think that Remi will be able to do what she did for Totem Rank and find a potion to help everyone break through?" She anded.
Karl shook his head. "I think that we simply don’t have the proper materials for it. She’s been trying because it would not only make her super famous, but it would also make a large portion of the world want her potions.
I don’t think that it will take them long to reach Mythic Rank, though.
Now that my energy is at Mythic Rank, and the improved Power Matrix has improved the refinent speed of my energy, they’ll be bathing in much higher energy density spaces before long, and that is bound to force at least one or two advancents.
Rae already has what she needs for her advancent bath as well. Not perfect, as ideally, she would want a bit of Immortal Essence to reach the Mythic Rank, but it’s fully possible with just Mythic Ranked ingredients."
Dana smiled at the thought of Rae getting upset that her bath wasn’t up to her standards, when it was full of Mythic Ranked blood.
Of all the things that soone could be accused of, Rae would never be accused of not being discerning enough about her skincare routine.
Or about her fashion sense. Ironic, really. The Bloodbath Spider becoming a haute couture fashionista was not on anyone’s checklist when she first arrived at the Academy as a dinner plate sized baby spider.
