Life 26 - Chapter (*) 01 - Snake Snack.
I couldn't stay in the room of a dead man. It smelled of him and it was putting me off. A big burst of House magic erased those traces. But it still wasn't my room. I cleared the room, sending everything into my item box. The ridiculous trademarked isekai item box. Changing my lungs' structure, I sang a tree-shaping Spell-Song and morphed the wooden paneling. Now it looked nothing like the previous room.
I brought out Alloralla's bedroom furniture. The posh elven workmanship was flawless. A few herbal essential sachets here and there made the place feel like home. After letting Nenandil know I would take a nap, I dove under the silk duvet and coiled my tail until I had stretched my muscles and found a comfortable position to sleep. Twenty minutes later, I was awake and refreshed. My metabolism perk made me require only 4% of the normal amount of sleep, food, and water. That translated to twenty minutes, eighty calories, and half a cup of water.
But I was fully awake and feeling curious. I brought a full-body mirror from my item box, the object popping out of nowhere next to the bed. Differently from what some manga and anima make you believe, at least in my experience there were no visual effects associated with it. No lights, no magic circles, no holes in reality. The objects just vanished or appeared out of thin air. I think a large object might displace enough air to cause a breeze or a popping sound but that's the extent of it.
I hope you read the warning in the pre-chapter message:
