Chapter 4- Even if You have Amnesia, You can still Paint
~AT A TOWN NAMED PRENCA, NEAR THE FOREST WHERE YURI WAS LOST (HUMAN LANDS)~
"So...What does it take to be a mercenary?" asked Yuri, he was excited and wanted to do his very best.
"It takes a mercenary to be a mercenary." answered Raquel, confused at the question. "Was that meant to be a trick question?"
"Ahahaha...Um...Not really." Yuri sweat-dropped nervously.
"Well, I think an important part of being mercenaries, at least for our group, that is, is our bond towards each other. When we fight we trust each other to watch our backs." Raquel said.
"Yep, yep!" agreed Lute. "Together we are one! Rath's the brain, Raquel's the left hand, Effie's the left foot and I'm the white blood cell!"
I don't think that makes up a whole person...Yuri thought while sweat-dropping.
"Hmm...What do you want to be?"
Yuri sweat-dropped harder.
He was walking in town with the four mercenaries. He fitted in well and didn't look out of place at all because they had given Yuri some normal clothes to wear instead of the black uniform he had on before, he kept the blue necklace in his pocket.
"So how do you guys do your jobs?" he asked, changing the subject.
"Hmm...Well, there is a building that has posters with job information, like what has to be done and what the pay is. We find a job we like and then we just take the poster and go to the counter in the building and they will give us details of the employer. We then contact the employer using the details and then we discuss the job with them. We don't just cover fighting jobs, we also look for missing people and pets and other random things." said Effie.
"Ahhh~ I see." Yuri was now even more excited. CAN'T WAIT!!! He screamed in his mind.
They continued heading towards the building.
~BLOOD PLEDGE CASTLE (GWENDAL'S OFFICE)~
"He's most likely no longer in the forest. We have searched everywhere there, he must be somewhere else now." said Gwendal thinking.
He was in his office with Conrad, Wolfram, Gunter, Yosak and Hube. After four days of having soldiers searched the forest, it was clear that the Maou was no longer there.
"So what do you suggest we do, Your Exellency?" asked Yosak.
"Hube, I want you to still try and gather information about any possible sightings of the Maou." Gwendal instructed. "Gunter, you should still stay in the castle and do the Maou's paperwork for now."
"Understood!" Hube and Gunter said in unison.
"Conrad, Wolfram and Yosak." Gwendal said, turning to them. "There is a possibility that the Maou is in a town near the forest. I want you three to go check a town."
"Understood!" they answered.
"But Brother, which town is it?" asked Wolfram.
"The closest town is called Prenca."
-------------------------
~AT THE MERCENARY EMPLOYING BUILDING (PRENCA)~
"We should pick an easy job because of you." said Rath.
It doesn't really seem that he said that in a mean, accusing way. Thought Yuri. This guy might actually just be caring.
They were checking out all the posters on the bulletin board.
"Ah! Found a good one!" cried Lute. She held up the poster for all to see.
ATTENTION!!!
CAPABLE AND ARTISTIC PEOPLE WANTED!!!
JOB: DESIGNING AND PAINTING A MURAL ON A NEW SHOP
PAINTS AND TOOLS WILL BE PROVIDED AND PAID FOR BY EMPLOYER
PLEASE REPLY A.S.A.P
"WHAAAAAAATEEEEEEH?!?!?" gasped Yuri. (Combination of "what?" and "eh?") "That's such a boring job!"
"Hey now, Conrad! Don't complain." said Raquel. "I think it's fine, you should first get used to learning how to accept a job and discussing things with an employer first."
"Okay..." Yuri grumbled.
So they went to the counter and asked for employer details and discussed things with the employer and got the job. (I'm too lazy to write that in detail. Sorry. You probably won't find it interesting anyways.)
It was settled that they paint a simple picture of some ice-cream and some cakes because it was going to be a dessert shop. Yuri and Rath were the only ones who were going to paint. The others were going to go shopping because it was such a simple job.
Meanwhile, Conrad, Wolfram and Yosak were searching the very same streets that they were working on.
They were in disguise of course, because they were Mazoku on human lands.
Conrad just wore simple clothes instead of his normal military(ish) uniform. Yosak just wore what he usually wore because he kinda always wore casual clothes. But Wolfram, whose appearance was known throughout the whole world (I think), wore a cloak with a hood that covered his bright blonde hair and sunglasses to cover his bright emerald eyes.
Maybe it was because because of the sunglasses that he wasn't clearly able to see where he was going, or maybe it was because of the hood that made Wolfram face down and didn't let him look at what's in front of him. But for one reason or another, while Wolfram was walking past a building that was being painted (yep, it's the dessert building), he stepped right into a tin of paint.
*SPLASH!*
Wolfram stared at the paint that covered his boot. Yuri, Rath, Conrad and Yosak who heard the splash, also stared at the paint that covered his boot.
"WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?!?!?" Wolfram yelled, recovering from the shock. "WHICH IDIOT PUT THIS STUPID TIN OF PAINT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD?!?!?"
"It wasn't in the middle of the road, it was to the side." said Rath calmly. "I also believe that it was your fault for not paying attention to where you were going."
What the heck is Rath saying? The cloak dude will just get angrier!!! Thought Yuri, flustered at the situation.
"WHAT WAS THAT?" Wolfram yelled, feeling insulted. He grabbed Rath by the collar. "KILLING YOU WON'T BE ENOUGH TO COMPENSATE FOR THIS!" he threatened angrily, he was still agitated and stressed over Yuri being missing that he hadn't slept for days.
Yuri freaked out. Oh no! The cloak dude just might bash Rath! I've gotta stop this!
"STOOOOOOOOP IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT PLEEEEEEEAAAAAASE!!!!" he screamed (a baka Maou cannot think of a more intelligent way to stop a fight).
All eyes turned to him.
"Ha, ha..." Yuri sweat-dropped at the sudden attention. "Um...Violence is not the answer...?"
Wolfram let go of Rath and stared at Yuri.
OMIGOSH! It worked? Yuri thought happily, surprised at his own skill. (*cough* *cough*)
"Yuri...." gasped Wolfram.
"Your Majesty..." gasped Conrad.
"Kiddo..." gasped Yosak.
They were all surprised at the sudden appearance of the young king and stared at him.
"WHAAAATEEEEEH?" gasped Yuri in confusion.
End of Chapter 4- Even if You Have Amnesia, You can Still Paint
A/N: So...From a story that hardly progresses through each chapter, it suddenly became a story that has a lot happen in one chapter. LOL.
Actually, that line (------------------------- this line) actually marks that the top and bottom of the line should be seperate chapters. But it seemed too short so I continued. For some reason I can't be stuffed writing too much talking scenes now, or something like that.
I kinda prefer writing it this way. I might or might not keep it this way in the future. It just depends on what I feel like, I guess.
At the start, I wasn't gonna let Yuri see the Shin Makoku guys until the end...But it just somehow turned out that way...So now my story's stuffed up...How to continue, I wonder??? Sigh...TT_TT..Oh well...It'll work out somehow....
The chapter title's weird right? I actually like these kind of titles, he he. Long titles that sound random(ish), that is.
In the next chapter, please look forward to reading what happens the Shin Makoku guys face Yuri, and vice versa. Unless I make up something random to prevent that...
PLEASE REVIEW...or you can even pm me if you want...or maybe add me on an alert? (looking up with sparkly eyes brimmed with hope)....well, just reading it is more than enough.
~For you all ppl out there that think non-Japanese manga is not actually manga, I have a question. "Does pizza have to be made in Italy by an Italian for it to be called pizza?" or something like that. I got it from DRAMACON, which is actually an English manga, it's good ^_^~
