Evan and Cera decided to head back into town after he regained consciousness.
"Ouch! My head hurts…Jeez, ya couldn't have held back a lil bit?"
"No way bro, had to show you just how strong I am right?"
"I definitely almost had you though."
"Not really."
Evan and Cera went back and forth while walking into Selina's gates.
Earlier in the day they had taken down a beast attempting to attack the city. Cera's deadly lightning strike was impossible to avoid for any stray monster. Therefore, she quickly became one of the most well respected hunters in the city.
Likewise, Evan and everyone were pretty much the strongest hunters in the association. With all of this being public knowledge they were allowed to come and go through the gates of Selina whenever they wanted to do so. They each were given badges that identify them as hunters and everything.
Though their time living luxuriously as celebrities in town is soon to be coming to an end.
Lyran, Angel, Avery, Sadako, Basa, Jericho, Evan and Cera have all met up a the dining hall to eat dinner tonight.
"Hey there beautiful, so how's your night going so far?"
Angel was shamelessly flirting with Lyran causing her to blush as per usual. Avery was silently eating isolating himself from the rest of them.
"Evan are you going to eat like an animal for the rest of the night?"
Sadako pokes at Evan while Basa is having the time of his life eating all a chicken can eat.
"Hey Jericho so is that the style these days, that raggedy ass getup looking like a scarecrow and all."
Cera smiles innocently, a vein pops from Jericho's forehead in reply.
"Oh, sooo its that time of the month huh? that would explain a lot."
Cera clicked her tounge and smacked him upside the back of his head. Jericho jumped up to his feet cursing at her but his words were immediately silenced by the sound of clanking metal.
Everyone tensed up as Jericho was wrapped in chains. An unexpected visitor had made a sudden appearance. A small frame, hair as white as snow dressed in a simple black and white dress. She smiled happily at everyone. The visitor was the time traveler Chrono.
"Where is Saika?! Give her back right now!!!"
Evan screamed at the top of his lungs before using his magic to crush the spot where Chrono was with a giant boulder. She simply caught it in one hand and threw it through the brick wall.
Sadako had lunged forward in attack but she disappeared into a mosaic portal that Chrono cast. Before anyone realized it, everyone was unable to move due to the chains around them.
"Everyone calm down okay? I'm just here to say that I'm giving Saika back when you bring Blair back from the phantom realm and return to Jigoku, okay?"
"Where in Jigoku?!"
"Outside the ruins…Oh, but one more thing…You're going to run into some trouble in the kingdom of flames and you will have to travel to the other side of the world to meet the grim reaper known as Kayako Yamagaya.
Ask her to relay a message to Jack to negotiate with Damien about joining forces in the hollow forest. Both parties will benefit and we will need the Vampires, Reapers, the Demons and all of you to defeat the destroyer of worlds Vishnu in the future. Take care on your way…"
Chrono had vanished before Sadako re-appeared with a shocked look on her face. Everyone had gotten to their feet in confusion as the chains binding them were now gone.
"I saw Saika…"
Sadako had a mixed array of emotions showing. Evan explained what Chrono said to them and the next day the entire group had set out to travel through the wasteland once again.
