When Luci and Vincent blinked the woman was gone. "Did we just see Clara?" asked Luci. "Don't know love." After paying their bill they went to the town's church.
It was a rickety old building with white cracked paint on the walls and a split roof, the inside was just as bad, as Lucy and Vincent sat and prayed Luci thought she heard someone say something about the hunter.
"Did you hear, Van Helsing cleared out yet another Desatera nest all by themselves once again."
"Really I'm surprised that the agency hasn't tried to hire her yet." said an old woman in a shawl. "They did, but she refused, something about finding her destiny or something." replied the lady's daughter.
------------------------------------------------------
After the couple was done praying they went into Pyre Forest. Luci was admiring how this vast ecosystem was just an entire forest of Red Sunset Maples. "Wow look Vincent, it's really beautiful." she exclaimed.
"I'll admit it does look lively, like a peaceful fire." calmly stated Vincent. The pair then soon came across a slime.
"AWW IT'S SO CUTE!!!" belowed Luci. The non-binary life form just turned then just sat on the path. The slime then combusted when a knife pierced it.
"Be careful here you nitwits!" said a young teenage boy with red auburn hair tied into a small pony tail.
"I could of hit you or worse." he said. Luci then thought for a second then realized who the boy was. "Scarlo, what the hell are you here for!?" yelled the young woman.
"Same as you Luc. Looking for the "Crimson-Eyed" hunter, Clara." responded Scarlo. " Lucina, who is this?" asked Vincent.
"(Sigh) this is my younger cousin, Scarlo Armstrong, he wants to be a hunter like Clara. And by him being here, I guess he already turned 19." Luci explained.
"And who's the guy?" asked Scarlo. "He is my... significant other." Luci responded, while both her and Vincent blushed.
Scarlo ended up hysterically laughing. "What're you laughing for Tick!?" Scarlo stopped himself, and pretended to wipe away a tear. "Cause, you're screwing a priest." he admitted.
---------------------------------------------------------
Scarlo lied down on the ground with a bump on his head. Luci looked angry with her fist steaming.
'I get she only uses it for self-defense, but damn, that Manifest could of been handy as a hunter.' Vincent thought.
