Volume 2 - Prelude

On an unknown island, in an inn, a hooded young man patiently sipped his beer as he listened to a conversation happening at the opposite table.

"I tell you, it's not false!" said a crooked man dressed in poor clothes.

He was addressing his friends that sat at the same table as him.

Gulping a beer, one of his boorish friends, a female, slammed her large mug on the table, "How many times have you given us wrong information?!"

From her slurpy tone, her friends could tell that she was drunk. Yet, her words were concise and direct meaning she still could function properly while being drunk.

The crooked man cocked his head at the sight of the angry female, but that didn't mean he was backing down. 

He kept a straight face as he mocked her, "What?! It is my job to find new bounties for us to take. I'm right, most of the time. Just admit it, you are scared of this bounty. The fearsome you is scared, that's the best thing I have seen today!"
