The little Hua Po was cornered. Her white clothes were wet from all the Bufu skills it had endured, and her usually smiling and childlike face donned an angry visage. Pixie didn't really feel sorry for the fire fairy – Pixies and Hua Pos didn't really like each other since ancient times. But it was still a sad vision. She hoped her master Flynn put an end to the demon's misery soon, like it had done to the other beasts that accompanied her.
But what he did was unexpected to say the least. The team's healer watched as he called back Jack Frost and Naga, moving towards the girl. She seemed frightened, probably because she had no mana left, so she was completely defenseless. Hua Po closed her eyes and waited for everything to end.
"Give me your money."
There was silence. The enemy opened her left eye and stared at him confused.
"E-excuse me?"
"Your Macca. Please give it to me."
"I don't…"
"Look" Flynn said, using every possible method to get Hua Po's money. "You're not gonna use it anymore, are you? So give it to me. You're in no position to negotiate."
Oh, I am not comfortable with this at all, Pixie thought to herself. It was one thing to defeat demons in a fight, everything was free-game, but this was outright bullying.
She looked at Naga for support, but the honorable snake warrior was looking away. The fairy didn't think he approved of this either.
"But I don't want to give you my money!"
"Miss. You have no choice."
"F-fine! Take it!" Hua Po started crying and threw 23 Macca on Flynn's face. He masterfully grabbed it all. "Who do you think you are, picking on a kid!"
"Give me more."
"WHAT?" Pixie and Hua Po yelled at the same time. This was ridiculous.
"You have more money, don't you? I can feel it." His frown never faltered and he never raised his voice. It was like he was fundraising. "Give me your Macca."
"You jerk!" Hua Po shrieked, furious. "And I was gonna go with you if you asked me to…!"
Pixie watched as she prepared a Maragi spell on her hands, and she was surprisingly heartbroken when Flynn stroke the bitch down in one pimp slap. Or maybe it was a sword attack, the two seemed very similar right now.
"Okay, good job team." His nonchalant attitude was almost creepy. He didn't seem to think that was immoral at all. "This was a nice training. I think we're ready to fight Medusa."
The other Samurai looked as dumbfounded as the young fairy did, but none of them said anything. Jonathan appeared to want to say something, but kept it to himself.
"Yeah, sure." Walter said at last. "Medusa and… yeah."
"Ugh." Isabeau said under her breath. "Men."
Thanks for the review on the last chapter, Laryna6 brodude!
And before anyone says anything, I actually love Isabeau - her whole "Men suck" thing is just silly to me, and I like to mock the things I love.
