“Why in the three major realms am I fucking here with you plebians?” <Promicarus>
The party of (now) 5 were walking down the dirt road once more. Yet it wasn’t Tom with them this time hence why they were all walking. Unfortunately Tom was still recovering from being chased by a genocidal psychopath after having just dealt with being threatened by a gang of bandit-villagers. Despite how he may look he wasn’t used to violence of any kind - no wonder he needed a break to take a breather before heading forth once more. He had dealt with bandits before but… That was a bit beyond a normal bandit attack.
Instead they got a rather grumpy tanned girl who crossed her arms and walked with them with a very begrudging face. Her rosy lips formed a frown while her slender arms crossed under her chest - her white coat swaying in the wind behind her while she sat atop a bone-horse with black ‘goop’ between the bones. Almost as if someone saw some bones and filled it with tar though more demonic than that.
Nobody seemed to be bothered by the fact she was currently sitting on an obviously demonic undead.
“It’s simple really~. The villagers were sick of your shit so politely asked us to take you away from them pronto fufufu~!” <Eel>
Their current positioning was Fuka up front, Lyada around back and Eel in the centre. On the right side of the dragoness was the grouchy puppet master who faced away due to sitting on the horse sideways. While on the left side was a succubus being very snuggly. Although her right hand was holding her bone-based spear, her left was being embraced by the clingy cow which seemed to make Eel happy enough to not jab her spear to the right side.
Despite this act of goodwill from the hero it didn’t seem like the other big chested girl felt the intention of this kindness as she threw her hand over her shoulder. From this casual act a arrow of abyssal darkness shot out to connect with Eel’s head, causing her head to jerk forwards from the impact. Turning around she glared at the back of the bleach blonde girl. Just when it seemed like Eel was about to do something - raising her spear to act as more than just a walking stick - a Fuka interrupted her.
“Ahem, if ya two idiots are quite done? We were tasked with bringin’ ya towards the mountain range where we are also heading; reason bein’ that yer a puppetmaster while a load of golems have begun appearing. It may actually be linked to why that {Wyvern} ‘n’ {Giant Green Lizard} were so far from their usual habitat. Pushed out by the invasive species though not sure of all the details since it’s ya job…” <Fuka>
“This one see’s that the foolish weaklings require m-” <Promicarus>
Just at that moment a lightning fast thrust connected with the side of the undead horse, sending it (and the rider) tumbling away with a great amount of momentum. Soon afterwards a *BOOM* echoed out as the pair of master & summon collided with a nearby rock causing that to explode into shards. Fuka just stopped as she was walking to calmly turn around to look at Elizabeth Jr Bloodleaf who just stood there confidently with the spear still on the floor but slowly pulled back her right foot under herself.
For obvious reasons Fuka took in a deep breath while holding her paladin helmet. If she had decided on a god it would be likely she would be asking for patience. Why did she need to be the straight man?
“Why?” <Fuka>
“Why what?” <Eel>
Eel just blinked innocently while planting a kiss atop Emily’s head; acting as if the little cute moment would cure all ills in the world. She even proceeded to turn those big ol’ eyes up to look at Fuka with innocence while Emily, fine with being used, did the exact same. Obviously Fuka was quite used to Eel’s techniques through the year so had gained high resistance to her shit.
Though normally it wasn’t her telling the girl off due to her not actually being too old - just her goblin half helping her mature far faster…
“Eel, we were supposed ta bring her to the mountains in order ta help all those innocent pe-” <Fuka>
