« Okay so here's the plan Katarea. When we get to the city you'll get us some money, while you do so I'll just try to get some info about where exactly we are and where is the closest airport. After that wr will search for someone who can forge some documents for us. We need some basic documents or else people will be suspicious of us. Once we get the papers done, we head to the airport and embark on the first flight to japan. There we will just improvise. » Said Bora, looking much more serious than usual.
« Understood my Lord, I'll try to get as much money as possible. » Said Katarea, not even questioning Bora's plan.
´ Master you are rushing things ! While I do know that Norus is alive, I can't locate him. Even though the last time I saw him he was in Japan that was 20 years ago ! You can't just go in a random country like that ! Even if I can help you understand and speak other languages, you will have trouble getting used to ...Well pretty much everything ! Seeing is one thing, living is another !' Yelled Aria. After he had told Bora about the fact that Norus was still alive, the two thousand years old adventurer ordered him to tell him about everything he knew. But Bora had reacted in a way Aria hadn't predicted.
´ We need to start somewhere, don't we ? Once we're there we will see what we should do next. Got now we need to get out of this country. The temple was full of soldiers and scientists, so I'm pretty sure that I was supposed to be something important, and they will most certainly search for me.' Thought Bora. Aria reluctantly agreed and stopped trying to prevent Bora from going to Japan.
******************
An hour later, in an unknown city.
Bora and Katarea were walking in the streets, keeping their heads low to avoid meeting the eyes of the curious citizens. After all Bora was a tall caucasian man, dressed like .....Nothing they had ever seen, and Katarea was a Djinn. So yeah, they both really stood out. As they approached what looked like a market, they both looked at each other and nodded before going in different ways. Bora went towards the market while Katarea walked towards a dark alley.
During the whole entire day Bora collected informations by talking to the citizens and merchants, while Katarea was off doing...Some dark stuff. Bora had also talked to a merchant who sold ancient artifects and asked him about how much money his coins were worth. After all the coins that ge had on himself were two thousand years old, so they were bound to be expensive. And so the expert eyes of the merchant had lit up, and he told Bora how he could become rich by selling those to some rich collector.
At the end of the day, Bora went back to where he and Katarea had split up and waited for her. And just after a few minutes she came back, though her clothes were now completely clean and she had a fat stack of bills in her hands.
« I'm not even gonna ask you how you got those. Just use them to forge us some fake documents, you should easily be able to find someone willing to do it. While you do this I'll go take a hotel room for us, a guy I met earlier told me about a nice hotel close to the airport. Here's the adress ,you should be able to find it easily. » Said Bora as he handed Katarea a piece of paper. She took it and nodded before giving Bora some money and then she turned around and walked in the direction she came from.
' You really adapted to the situation quickly Master, I'm proud of you. Also it seems you already understand that it's better to have people do things for you than do it yourself.' Said Aria, laughing.
' Well what can I say...According to the people of this era, our world is quite a harsh place.' Though Bora as a thin smile appeared on his smile. He then turned around too and walked in the direction of the hotel.
After two hours of walking, Bora finally reached the hotel. He then entered the building and booked a room for two, while silently thanking Aria who helped him. During all thise years he had only looked at how the world had changed without really trying to understand anything. As such while he knew a lot of things, he certainly still had trouble getting use to how the world worked nowadays. Everything was linked to the internet and electronics and that was something he really didn't understand. Which made him quite mad since apparently not understanding the recent technologies made you old in the eyes of the society. He was still quite young.....Atleast in his mind he was.
Silently sitting on the bed of the hotel room, Bora suddenly thought of something.
´ Even if it's Katarea, finding someone who can forge some fake documents might take some time. I should've gone with her.' Thought Bora
' Nah, she'll be fine on her own. Plus since she's a Djinn she will be able to get exactly what she want without losing any time. You know it's crazy how today's world can become so easy to live in when you can just literally threaten people to give you whatever you ask for. I'm sure she won't have any trouble.' Said Aria, which made Bora laugh. But suddenly the door got opened and Bora spun around. However his panic soon disappeared when he discovered that it was just Katarea.
She entered the room and walked towards him, before throwing some documents on the bed and falling on it. She seemed quite exhausted.
Seeing that she had come back with the papers so early and with such ease, Bora couldn't help but smile.
' It's good to be back to civilization.'
