Sain and Kent found a nifty job that might pay well. They were window washers. They were hard at work, washing the windows of an inn. For some strange reason, Sain kept his focus on the work and remained untalkative instead of gawking and flirting with the females passing by. This was highly out of character for him.
"Sain? What are you up to?" Kent asked with a hint of suspicion in his voice.
"Working," he replied while keeping his gaze on the window in front of him.
"Is there a woman in there?" asked Kent.
"No, it's empty."
"I must say, I'm very proud of you for staying on task!" Kent said happily. "Why not take a break? I don't usually encourage this, but look at that beautiful woman down there!"
Sain tensed up and began to work faster. "Th-Thanks, but… uh… time is money!"
"Ok, I'm officially scared of you now," said Kent. "Just turn around and look down. I'm not jesting here. She's a real beauty!"
"Sounds like you're finally turned over a new leaf! I have done so too! You're more carefree and I'm more serious! I'm proud of you, Kent ol' buddy!" Sain still kept his back against the air and still worked.
"For crying out loud…" Kent turned Sain around and made him look down. The redhead soon regretted his action, not because of Sain's constant hitting on all the girls, but because of something he never knew about.
"HOLY ST. ELIMINE! LEMME DOWN! I'M GONNA DIE!!"
Sain immediately grabbed onto the floor and clung on for dear life. Kent did an anime sweat drop with a stunned expression on his face. Sain began to hyperventilate, so Kent lowered them down. A few minutes passed before Sain calmed down. The girl Kent spotted walked up to Sain to see if he was fine. Sain looked up at her and fainted.
"Ladies and gentlemen! Boys and girls of all ages! I shall perform various magic tricks of mystery!"
Canas, Erk, and Lucius found out that magic shows are good for bringing in the money. They had various props like large boxes to make people disappear, for example. The crowd tossed them money after each trick.
"For my next trick, I shall transform this young lad into a bunny!" Canas gestured to Lucius.
Lucius stepped into the box, Canas and Erk spun it around, recited some enchantments, and then opened the box. What was once the monk was now a snow rabbit. Suddenly, several more began to hop out.
"Er… Well… Lucius always was a mathematical expert… Multiplication was his specialty!" Canas chuckled nervously. The audience laughed at the joke and tossed the group more gold.
"Say, Canas? I really miss Lucius," Erk said while pretending to sound concerned. "How can we turn him back?"
"We need to collect all the rabbits and put him back together!" answered Canas. They did just that and brought Lucius back.
"Hey! Why aren't you guys working?!" bellowed Hector.
"We are, milord. Entertaining the people is work," said Lucius who had on a pair of fake rabbit ears.
"Listen here, Harry Potter, Ron Weasely, and Hermione Granger!" Hector threatened. "Quit screwing around and get working or I'll kick all of your butts! Besides, that's all fake in the first place!"
"I can demonstrate that what you are saying is false," said Canas.
"Might as well make me disappear! Go on, do it!" taunted Hector. The Ostian lord stepped into the box and closed it.
"Ok then, Mr. Killjoy. We'll make you disappear!" growled Erk.
All three magic wielders said a spell and opened the box to reveal that it's empty. The crowd applauded and tossed them money.
"It's a pity that Hector didn't believe us…" said Canas.
"Yeah… but I think you said the spell wrong," said Lucius. "Isn't it Anna Banana?"
"What?! But I thought that it was Santa Ana!" cried Erk.
"Don't you mean Vanna Hannah?' asked Canas. It took a couple seconds for them to realize their mistake.
Hector emerged from the water fountain that's in the middle of the town square. Turned out that the three spells caused him to land in the fountain as a Blastiose who can only sing the Old French song "Belle Qui Tiens Ma Vie".
That's it. Those three stooges are DEAD! the angry lord thought to himself.
