Jason and Stella arrive at Mionia, a highly advanced world featuring the Interdimensional Transit Line. Unable to sneak past the massive magical shield protecting the transit line, Jason decides a disguise is their best option. Stella reveals her Astral Projection skill, which allows her to disguise allies as fallen enemies. Jason requests an older, non-human appearance, and Stella transforms him into a red-skinned, grey-bearded warrior from the world of Carisa.

’I look like the leader of some biker gang.’

Jason couldn’t help but chuckle in amusement when this thought came to his mind, and Jason handed the mirror back to Stella and thanked her for her help. Stella nodded, and then she activated the [Astral Projection] skill again and used it on herself this time.

Stella transformed into a female from the same race as Jason’s new form. She had red skin with black lines running down her cheeks and neck, and long hair braided behind her. But Jason couldn’t help but notice how different her clothes were. Stella’s black trousers and shirt had vanished, and now she was wearing a pair of shorts that hugged her powerful, thick legs very tightly and a strip of cloth around her chest that left her shoulders and midsection exposed! Stella’s breasts were pushing against the clothes in a way that exposed a lot of her cleavage, and Stella also had a large sword behind her back that showed she was a powerful warrior.

Stella looked down at herself once she was done with the transformation, and she looked back at Jason to see if he approved of it, but Jason just raised a brow when she asked.

"Do you think this is okay, master?"

Jason hummed.

"Yeah, it’s very... unrestrictive."

It was obvious that there were many other words that Jason wanted to use to describe what Stella was wearing. It looked like Stella was doing her best to appear as sexually appealing as possible, and Jason couldn’t deny that it was definitely working.

But Jason decided that it didn’t matter as long as no one could tell who they were! But if Jason had looked closer at Stella at that moment, he would’ve been able to see the obvious red dusting that appeared on her cheeks. Stella knew just how provocative what she was wearing was, and although Stella would normally never wear something like this since it prevented her from fighting freely, Stella didn’t know why she just chose to do it! There were many other appearances that Stella could’ve taken using the [Astral Projection], but Stella knew that this was the one that was most likely to draw Jason’s attention to her.

’Sigh~ What the hell am I even doing? A maid shouldn’t be acting like this.’

Stella let out a sigh to the side as she felt a bit disappointed in herself for doing something like this. Stella had sworn to serve Jason for the rest of her life, and she would’ve been content to be Jason’s maid forever if he wanted. But Stella couldn’t deny that she was unbelievably attracted to Jason. How could she not be? Not only was Jason an Avaran, but he was also exceptionally powerful and handsome. Those traits were enough to attract any Avaran woman, and when you add in his family-oriented personality as well, then there was no way Stella could not be attracted to him! If Jason had been a regular Prince on Avaran, then he would’ve had women falling over themselves just to try and get into his bed!

But if there were still on Avaran, Stella knew that there was no chance that she and Jason would ever get this close! Stella had been a regular guard on Avaran, so she wouldn’t even have the right to talk to Jason at all since he was so much higher than her in the hierarchy! Right now, Stella was enjoying a privilege that most people would kill for! So Stella realised that she couldn’t keep feeling this way. Even if Stella was attracted to Jason, Stella had to remember that she was only a maid! That was where she belonged!

’I’ll change my appearance later. I don’t want Master to get the wrong idea about me.’

Stella made up her mind right then, but she didn’t have time to think any more as Jason reached his hand out to her.

"Come on, let’s go."

Stella took Jason’s hand, and she cursed when she felt another blush rising to her cheeks just from that contact! Stella told herself to stop being so stupid, and in the next moment, they sank into the shadows and headed for the transit line.

....

[Interdimensional Transit Line]

"Make sure not to drop my things. Do you know how expensive they are?"

"Oh no, why are these floors so dirty? With the amount of money we’re paying, shouldn’t they take care of their station better?"

"Did you seal the deal? We’ll be making a billion gold coins if it passes, so make sure you make no mistakes."

"Will there be food on the transit? Remember, I only eat the highest grade raw octopus from the world of Horos. If they don’t have it, then send someone to Horos and have them bring it back right now."

"Slow down, honey. Don’t run too far ahead."

"Mummy, you’re too slow!"

The interdimensional transit line station was buzzing with activity! There were hundreds of people walking around and getting ready to board the transport, and just from listening to the conversations that they were having, it was easy to tell that everyone here were part of the upper class of the Primordial Expanse! Businessmen, kings, rulers, presidents, and members of Elder Worlds all mingled together while speaking in hushed voices about their multimillion and multibillion netwroth businesses!

Everyone here had one business or another that they wanted to carry out in another domain, and since they all knew that travelling across domains would take them too long, they decided that spending hundreds of thousands of gold coins to move across domains was an absolutely reasonable deal!

This transit line had been created by the High Dwarves of Foragen after the Period of Lawlessness, when multiple worlds went to war with each other! As one of the races that were the most involved in forging the Primordial Treaty, the Dwarves of Foragen were asked by the Council of Nine and One to build a transport that would allow people to travel across multiple domains with ease, and after a long period of planning, this transit line was what they came up with! The transit line ran on raw mana extracted from the mana stones of powerful beasts, and it could move at speeds that were high enough to cut the travel time across domains from multiple days down to only a few hours!

But the immense operation costs that the transit line required in order to remain functional made it difficult for anyone to maintain the business unless they charged very high amounts for each trip! Just refuelling the transit line on a trip would cost them millions of gold coins, so there was no way they could offer a service like this for a low amount! And that was why the dwarves began to advertise the business as an exclusive service only for the rich! The dwarves set the price very high at a hundred thousand gold coins per domain, and this made it impossible for many of the common travellers around the Primordial Expanse to use this line!

Now, it was common to see members of high society and royal families coming to the transit line to travel across domains, and even with the high costs, this was still one of the most successful businesses in the entire Primordial Expanse!

Jason and Stella walked through the crowd of travellers with calm looks on their faces. Even though both Jason and Stella had changed their appearances, it was obvious that they still stood out a bit since they looked very rugged! Jason appeared like an old warrior who wouldn’t hesitate to punch you in the face if you looked at him funny, and Stella was dressed like a provocative warrior with a very short fuse!
