If Okuni told the ferryman, then he'll have told Wangji, won't he?

[ that's a thing isn't it? a thing. ]

... Oh cool hunters as well now. [ great. you love to see it. ] Is that part of the bullshit, or something the gods forgot to account for when they decided on this crap? [ c'mon then they'd better figure out this ritual thing quick so the world doesn't end, and ash can punch hunters harder if they do come after kara. ]

[unfriendliest]

Probably.

The blood and tears comes with being one of the Maou. The hunters... [ shrug. ] Humans always go after what they think will bring them the most power, don't they? I doubt the gods cared enough to consider something like this before throwing us into this.

[voidbreaker]

Somehow, despite expecting nothing from them I still kinda feel pissed at how they fucked that one up.

[ bleh. ]

S'all right though. Any hunters show up and I don't think anyone'd be pleased to see them. It's not like they'll be able to just pinpoint you guys immediately and run at you.

[unfriendliest]

[ flatly: ] As long as we don't bleed, cry, or have someone point us out as the Maou, they won't find us.

[ lmao can you imagine kara crying. wow. ]

Even if they do show up, it's not like I can't fight them off myself. It's just a matter of not taking a hit and proving I'm who they're looking for. [ . . . ] And dealing with these plagues, I guess.

[voidbreaker]

[ crying? nah. but the bleeding part... ] Try not to cut yourself at work then. Is it obvious the second it happens? Is your blood blue now or some shit?

Or, y'know. Use the shit this red string thing'll give you and blast them before they can even draw a weapon on you.

[unfriendliest]

I don't know. I haven't gone out of my way to injure myself just to check. All I know is it has some sort of power, so I need to make sure no one else finds out about it.

[ he grimaces. ]

...Which means I probably can't take any more contracts until this is over.

[voidbreaker]

Yeah, maybe don't try that as an experiment. Knowing our luck in general it probably comes with a ringing alarm the second blood's exposed to air to let everyone know there's a Maou out there bleeding.

[ he's semi joking, but.......... BUT..................... ]

You've got the restaurant as well. And if you're really bored you can shift stock for me. [ he's helping. ]

[unfriendliest]

No thanks.

[voidbreaker]

You could at least think it over before shooting it down.

[unfriendliest]

Don't need to. Besides, you don't see me conning you into working at the restaurant, do you?

[voidbreaker]

I just assumed if you needed help you'd ask.

[unfriendliest]

I would, but I have staff for that. If you need help stocking shelves, maybe you should hire someone.

[voidbreaker]

I'm not rolling in that much popularity.

'Sides, you're gonna have to help me do a bit of heavy lifting to find the book on rituals I'm thinking of. Might as well chip in for a little bit while you're there.

[unfriendliest]

[ SIGHS. so this is the life he's signing up for, huh? maybe he should revisit the whole doom and destruction thing after all. ]

Fine. Should we start now?

[voidbreaker]

[ don’t be a binch kara it’s just some books. way easier than fire and brimstone and the end of days. ]

Might as well. Sooner we do this the sooner the world is less likely to implode.

[unfriendliest]

[ he nods, resigned. ]

We weren't exactly given a deadline, so sooner is better, probably.

[voidbreaker]

It'd suck if the world ended because we couldn't find the right kind of candle for a ritual.

[unfriendliest]

But would you really be surprised if the gods were that picky? Because I wouldn't.

[voidbreaker]

Nah. Wouldn't surprise me at all. We'll probably get penalised because of them prefers the scent of ylang ylang to sandalwood.
