Footsteps echoed across the ground, twelve people were walking up the mountain in complete silence.After a while said silence was broken by a voice asking the following question:
"By the way,is your name Gavian or Gavien?"
"...Well,both really,some people call me Gavian and others Gavien, However for you it's Gavian,only close ones call me Gavien."
"Tsk,after all this time and you still don't consider me to be close to you?"
"We've only known each other for about a month."
"Well,a month is a long time, where I'm from It would be hard to spend a single week with the same person you know?"
"Is that so?may I ask why?"
"Well either they died or you did."
"...Hmnn,I see...You certainly came from an ...unique place,that explains your... unique? Personality.Well, I'll make an exception and allow you to call me Gavien."
"Huhray,I am Anakiel,but you can call me Naki."
"I've been calling you Naki all this time though?"
"Yea,but now I've given you permission."
"Lol,as if anyone needs permission to utter that stupid name,NAKI."
"and who the fuck are you to talk about names,mr.Prince of darkness?did your parents have you when they were in 8th grade?"
"Hey,my name is a noble one given to the princes of my Kingdom for ages, unlike your commoner name."
"Hey Sebastian,what name do you prefer?
"Princeps Tenebrarum or Naki?"
"Huh,they both suck."
"..."
"..."
"By the way,what is your opinion on the story Anastasya told?Do you believe it's true?"
"Hmmm, I'm not sure,on one side Anastasya is,from what I've heard one of the best diviners in recent age,I mean,even the previous 1st seat,know for his strict criterias trusted her...But on the other hand that story is truly far to difficult to believe?A single individual bringing the collapse of the entire world?? Humanity aside,someone who is not even of the higher races being able to take them down single handedly seems absurd right?"
"Well it does,but it would be kind of cool right?
Those bastards from the higher races being taken down by a single individual,the though of it kind makes me want to bust a nut,it's unfortunate that humanity would be dragged down with them but at least it wouldn't be for nothing."
"..."
'Well, considering his past I guess it's not too surprising that he would think as such.'
Sebastian was about to make a comment but decided against it in the last second, instead he changed subject:
"Well regardless of whether it's true or not,we must approach this mission with as much caution as possible, Someone who possess the Eye of Bahamuth cannot be an ordinary person."
"If that's the case I wonder why the coalition sent this crazy bitch in here?huh."
"Who are you calling a crazy bitch? I'm gonna fuckin murder you!!!"
'and that's precisely why I called her a crazy bitch..."
"You know I can't die right?"
"Well you've never been killed by me"
"Like it would make a difference."
"Wanna try?"
"You three,the food is ready"
"Finally!!!, I'm starving."
Naki put her hat atop her Head and quickly ran to the tent in which the food was being prepared,as she arrived in the tent she saw a large Calderon filled with soup and her eyes brightned up.
"Is that, atlantian soup???"
"Yes,we only got the ingredients to make it thanks to miss Anastasya,you better be thankful."
"May the Spirits bless miss Anastasya!!!"
"Well look at that,you know how to show gratitude."
"Hey!!you think I'm some barbarian?"
"To be honest...yea."
"I'm offended."
"Sorry."
"Apologies accepted."
"Anyways...you and the hot captain seemed quite close,is there perhaps something going on between you two?"
"Not really,not that I didn't try though,but the captain does not seem like one for romance or you know..."relations."
"Huh, Relations..I see,your quite straight forward aren't you?"
"Well you know the saying you only live once."
"Actually,my people believe in reincarnation."
"...You only live twice then."
"Hey ladies,I heard the food was ready."
"Ahh yes mister Hoyeon,I made atlantian soup,I don't know if you like it though,in case you don't I can make something else for you."
"Well I appreciate the gesture but there will be no need,who doesn't like atlantian soup?"
While conversations of atlantian soup and the atlantians was going on inside the tent something else was happening outside.
"Hey priest,may I ask a question?"
"Sure go ahead."
"Does your god forgive murderers.?"
"Well,the Lord forviges all those who deserve forgiveness."
"That doesn't answer much."
"It answers enough."
"Huhh,you priests and your riddles."
"Well not like it matters to me,I don't believe in God anyway."
"You asked."
"Huh?"
"You say it doesn't matter and yet you asked."
"..."
"Hey you two,come see this."
Upon hearing a voice calling for them,Ezel and Sebastian got up and went in direction of said voice.
"What is it Olaf?"
"The trees... don't they seem strange?"
"What to do you mean by strange?"
"He's right,their position seems to have shifted albeit slightly."
"As expected of a former assassin,your senses are sharp."
Sebastian's face darkened a little and upon noticing that Olaf remarked to himself
'I probably should avoid mentioning his past from now on.'
"Well,now that you two have mentioned,they to seem to be a little more forward than before..."
Ezel went down his memory line for a while and eventually remembered something.
"Call the others,I think I know what's happening and If I'm right we might be in a lot of trouble."
