Sword God in a World of Magic

Alex and the Elder walked to the entrance of the village.

When some of the gathered villagers saw Alex, their eyes opened in surprise.

Alex looked completely different from before!

Why?

Well, when Alex had finished talking with the Elder after an hour or so, he stood up from the chair. That's when he noticed that the chair he had been sitting on was coated in mud and grime.

Alex quickly realized that this had come from him, and he remembered that he hadn't washed in an eternity.

He wouldn't jump into icy water at such temperatures.

So, Alex had asked the Elder if he smelled.

The Elder had only awkwardly coughed into his hands.

After that, the Elder offered him a chance to properly wash and take care of his clothing.

Alex wanted to decline, but after some of the villagers had heard that their savior hadn't had an opportunity to wash in forever, they basically forced him.

They wouldn't want any other people outside the village to think that Coldew Village didn't take care of its visitors!

They had filled a big barrel with ice and snow and put it above a small campfire, and while Alex was taking his first bath in this world, his clothes were being washed by some of the older women in the village.

Alex wasn't sure how they had done it, but his coat looked nearly perfect. It was almost like it was new.

As for the clothes beneath Alex's coat, they had been thrown away.

Instead, Alex got a set of new clothing made out of animal hide.

In such a cold environment, cotton didn't grow. Because of that, the villagers mainly used the skin of their pigs and cows to fashion clothing.

When Alex came out of his bath, it was like he had become a new man.

The bath had felt divine!

Alex also thought that since he was already clean, he could also cut his hair and shave.

After everything was done, Alex put on his new clothes and old coat.

He no longer looked like someone living in the wild but like a suave young warrior from some village.

Then, Alex had spent the night in a free room in a random house.
