Eldritch Creature's Guide



The architecture of the typical Japanese style was something that Samiel didn't saw for a long time since he left Earth...

He remembered that he spent a lot of time in Asia because there were the remaining Mana Veins that still had some activity located there, more precisely in China and Japan...

Europe had the third largest amount of them, but on the other hand, Europe had the largest number of Magicla inheritances while China had some of the cultivation influence, which Samiel concluded must have been from the Immortal Path influence.

In contrast, America had almost none and mana in that region of Earth had already died long ago, while Europe and Asia were only in the process of dying and would become completely Mana-Less in a few decades.

It was actually a sad thing to see because Europe and Asia still had some Magical Beasts and Creatures living there, but they were slowly dying an agonizing death of extinction from lack of Mana in the atmosphere.

"Welcome to the Shokugakure, honorable guests."

Like the traditional Japanese restaurants of Earth, this one also featured a peaceful and serene atmosphere that is designed to promote relaxation and reflection. The decor was minimalist and incorporated natural wood, stone, and bamboo elements.

When they entered the restaurant, they were greeted by hostesses dressed in traditional Japanese attire, as they were wearing beautiful, ornamental and colorful kimonos as they led them to their seats.

Samiel noticed that both of them were Kitsunes, judging on their fox ears and tails.

He raised his brow at this because Kitsunes were rare in these parts of the Cosmos; most of them didn't really leave Yamato at all, only when they reached Legendary Level would they wander off as they lived in closed communities with other Yokai.

They were led to one of the exclusive private floors for the clients that didn't wish to be disrupted during their stay; it was on the top of the pagoda, and they had a nice view of the Zephystrand at night, which was certainly a nice bonus.

"I will have the main menu... three times, plus bring me the specialty of the chef two times."

Samiel ordered for himself as he was pretty hungry and even Yvraine made an order, but hers was much smaller because she was not that big an eater like her lover was.

One of the Kitsune Hostess took the orders, while the second one brought them a bottle of sake as she started, pouring them a cup for each.

The menu here wasn't that big, but it stuck mostly to the traditional and simple food, mainly sushi, sashimi, tempura and other things. There were also more than three types of ramen, so Samiel was pretty much eager for a good dinner.

He loved this type of cuisine and wanted to have his fill after a long time because he wasn't very skilled with Asian cuisine; because every time he was making something of it, it felt like it was missing something that he couldn't just find.

Soon enough, the hostesses started to bring the food to the table, and Samiel was already salivating for the food because he was hungry as a wolf.

Yvraine couldn't help but raise a brow at her lover, who was eating everything like a bottomless pit, as countless plates of food were disappearing into his stomach.

"You are really a glutton, do you know that?"

Yvraine remarked, seeing him eating, as she continued eating as well. During their dinner, both were enjoying the restaurant's serene atmosphere while also talking about some things, mainly about the development of Samiel's corporation.

She asked him how things with the IMC were going; Samiel was, in truth, happy "boasting" about the IMC because it was his darling... aside from Nefertari and Yvraine, of course.

Samiel enjoyed sake; it was one of his favorite alcoholic drinks as he had already drank his seventh cup... he was a tank even when he was human and could drink a lot, but after becoming a partial Eldritch Creature, he could drink even far more.

"So, where now, my dear?"

Samiel asked teasingly, as they would be now spending the night at the hotel before returning back to the 10th Floor of the Tower, from which they would be ascending to the 11th Floor of the Tower. At least one day, after a such long time, they would sleep in safety and in a comfy bed...

He didn't really count the Vault because it was not that safe. The danger of the Arrakian sandworms was still there and that wasn't giving him any time to sleep.

He was still pretty much paranoid about the entire thing; when they were in Vault, something back in his mind was warning that their Vault could be attacked by the Arrakian sandworm.

"We are going to have some nice fun at the hotel... I have some surprise for you..."

She whispered seductively as they paid for the bill or rather, Samiel paid for the bill because he was richer as he was the owner of the IMC and she knew that he obtained a pretty good loot from the Trials of the Tomb of the Last Human King.

"We are going to the hotel that is also owned by the same owner of this restaurant."

They were then led to another building that was next to the restaurant.

The design was pretty much similar to the restaurant and when they entered their room, which Samiel remembered was called ryokan, it featured a minimalist and elegant design with tatami mats covering the floor.

The room often has a low table and cushions for seating and a tokonoma alcove for displaying artwork or flowers.

The bedding in a ryokan consisted of futon mattresses, which were placed directly on the tatami floor and on the mattresses, there were two yukatas for them to wear. The room also had shoji sliding doors, made of translucent paper and wood, that could be opened to reveal a view of the city.

"I am going to prepare myself... wait for me..."

She whispered and left the room to change her clothes, while Samiel sat down on the bed and started unclothing himself while he put on his yukata.

He waited there for several minutes until the shoji sliding doors opened and revealed Yvraine in the most erotic outfit he ever saw.
