Scene 2.0: Somewhere In Lyriah (Rocky Desert), 9:00, Wednesday December 12th Year 2998 Of The Maximilian Calendar
Ken wakes up in a rocky location in a vast and endless red desert with the bloody red sky; with not a soul in sight except for a few cacti, a small clear and pure water pond and a small very Hairy Yet Cute looking Dwarf looking at him with Large Cute-Looking Eyes which is the only thing that stands out as his hair covers his entire body. This Dwarf is as tall as a small child as Ken stands up, this little guy is as tall to Ken's thigh. Ken, no knowing how to react to a Dwarf, decides to act as he usually does. Ken is wearing a Khaki-Colored Cloth Clothes, a Copper Ring on his Right Ring Finger and wearing an Amulet on his Right Arm. He now has Tanned Orange Complexion, Spiky Silver Hair and Emerald Eyes.
Ken:
Hello…My name is Aramaki Ken.
Kubō:
(Young Boy Voice)
Hello! My name is Kubō! I know you! Reyna-Sama told me you'd be coming!
Ken:
So you are That Angel's Dwarf. So that means I'm in Ram-North. Strange…this looks like more of a Desert than a Very Rocky Location.
Kubō:
(Worried)
Um…Did Reyna-Sama kicked you out abruptly from her chambers?
Ken:
(Annoyed, Worried)
You could say that. Do you know something, Kubō?
Kubō:
Well…When an Angel send you somewhere, they usually guide you to your destination. But if Reyna-Sama didn't do that, then you are bound to end up somewhere a lot more dangerous.
Ken:
(Furious, Maintaining Control)
I…I see…So…where did I end up?
Kubō:
(Nervous, Scared)
You are in "The Crimson Sands Desert" located in the Dark Lord's Kingdom. Enemies and Monster around here are around Level 66 while Bosses are at Level 82. Beyond here lies "The Black Obelisk Castle" where the Dark Lord is sitting on the throne at the top of "Death's Tower" where all enemies are at Max Level while the Bosses are Over-leveled around Level 120 to 150 while the Dark Lord and the Top Devil Generals are at Level 200.
Ken:
(Shocked)
I'M NEAR THE STRONGHOLD OF THE FINAL BOSS!?!?!?
Kubō:
Yeah…But don't worry! I can guide you to the nearby town avoiding all enemies especially that we are both at Level 1.
Ken:
You can do that? What's your Job Class?
Kubō:
I'm a "Trader". I do business with everyone I meet. I also sell items for profit.
Ken:
So if you take the Ascension Trial you would evolve into a "Merchant".
Kubō:
(Happy Attitude)
Yep, yep! Luckily I don't need to evolve since Reyna-Sama always give me all the items I need. Especially this one!
(Pulls Two 6-Star Item Bottles)
Ken:
What's that? A Monster Repellent?
Kubō:
Yep, yep! This is the most powerful repellent there is! Able to avoid battles even with Maxed Out Enemies except for Bosses and Special Monster.
Ken:
Like?
Kubō:
Golden Goblins which luckily are nowhere in this part of the Lyriah.
Ken:
(Smiling)
That's great! I'm guessing that we both need to drink them to be effective.
Kubō:
Yep, yep! Since they are a 6-Star items, it will last for a full day. But we need to be careful since like I said: this won't work on Bosses or Special Monsters.
Ken:
What about our gear?
Kubō:
Sadly Kenny we are both at Level 1, so the number of weapons and equipment we can use is pretty limited and since we are at the starter level, we can die in one hit.
Ken:
We really have our work cut out for us, huh? So…which is the nearby Starter Town?
Kubō:
There's the Town at Ram-North named Cüer, The village near there called Zion and The Kingdom of Arielios…but that's located on the other side of the world so the only way to get there is using the teleporter of either the Dark Lord's Castle or the Alliance Forces that are located at the Boarder from here.
Ken:
Who is by far the strongest hero in this world?
Kubō:
That would be The Blazing Sword, Makoto-Sama.
Ken:
Makoto…
Kubō:
You know him?
Ken:
No. It's just that…my mom's name is Makoto.
Kubō:
Makoto is a Woman's Name?
Ken:
No. Makoto is a Unisex Name. Anyone can have it. I just…never mind. The Blazing Sword? I guess he's a Samurai Class.
Kubō:
Nope! He's a Professional Rogue. His Starter Class is Bushido+, His Adept Class is Black Belt+ and his Professional Class is Gunner+.
Ken:
Why the Plus after the Job Classes?
Kubō:
You know that The Rogue Job Class can only learn the Basic Job Classes and not their Evolved Forms? Well Rogues can acquire "Extension Badges" from the Adventurer's Guilds if you achieve a High Rank. Extension Badges allow you to Master Skills From The Evolved Job Classes. But you only can access these badge if you reach Platinum Rank. There are 12 Ranks Total: Wood, Rock, Copper, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, Adamantite, Orihalcum, Mythic and Legendary. The Higher the Badge Rank, the possible and easier it will be to Master the Higher Tier Skills. The Possibility Increases the Higher the Rank of the Badges. For example: you want to learn a Powerful Multi-Healing Spell, but you have a Platinum Badge; the Possibility to learn it is limited to 9%. But if you have a Legendary Badge your chances are at 99%.
Ken:
So Makoto-Sama is a Legendary Level Hero.
Kubō:
Yeah, he is! He's the Best!
Ken:
(Chuckles)
I would like to know more but after we get to safety. I'm guessing there's no Save Point nearby?
Kubō:
What's a Save Point?
Ken:
Never mind. I'm just being weird. Come on. Let's go.
Kubō:
Before we go, here!
(Gives Ken 10 Smoke Bomb Ω)
These are Smoke Bomb Ω. This will give you a 100% Chance to escape all battles even Boss and Special Battles so long as their Agility and Accuracy is below 100 points combined or your Agility and Luck is above 500 Points Combined with your Party Members. My Agility is at 1 and my Luck is at 20 which is 21 Points Total. Your Agility and Luck are both at 11 which is 22 Points Total. Combined, we have a total of 43 Points, so we will never be able to escape if we fight either a Boss or a Special Monster.
Ken:
So we need to stay low and not take any chances.
Kubō:
Ditto!
Ken and Kubō starts to move around the red desert and avoiding all monster after they drank the Monster Repellent Potion and manages to to move around without getting in any fights. Suddenly Ken sees a little girl running away from a group of Goblins willing to kill her. Not caring for his own well being, Ken jumps in front of the Goblins to protect the little girl. Kubō takes the little girl as Ken fights the Group of 5 Goblins who are at Level 66 each while he's at Level 1. Knowing he's no match for them, Ken uses one of his 10 Smoke Bomb Ω and manages to escape and avoid fighting them. After escaping to a safe location inside what appears to be an empty cave, Ken and Kubō starts to interact with the little redhead girl wearing a frilly red, white and brown cute dress that resembles a Goth Lolita, but it is more vivid with saturated colors; her hair has cute red, white and blue ribbons wrapped in the form of pigtails, beautiful yellow eyes, light cinnamon skin and a cute angelic voice as she is holding a plushie of a Black Cat with an angry and mean look in its face that somehow makes it look really cute as well.
Ken:
Are you alright?
???:
Thank you for saving me, Onii-Chan.
Ken:
(Chuckles)
Don't mention it. What are you doing here? This is no place for a little girl.
???:
I was traveling with my Mama, but we were attacked and I got separated from her. Then as I was looking for her, I was attacked by those nasty goblins.
Kubō:
Is your Mama a Merchant? Only Merchants are allowed to pass on this corner of the world since they are a Neutral Community. They side with neither the Alliance nor to the Dark Lord's Kingdom.
???:
You could say that…
Ken:
Unfortunately we are at a starter level and we can't help look for her. But we can stay here and hope she finds us.
???:
Okay, I don't mind if I am with you, Onii-Chan!
Ken:
(Warm Smile)
My name is Aramaki Ken. This little fella is Kubō The Dwarf.
Kubō:
Hello!
Momo:
My name is Momo. Thank you for saving me, Kenny Onii-Chan!
Ken:
(Chuckles)
You are welcome and I'll do it again whenever you need it.
Momo:
(Smiling)
I will! Thank You, Kenny Onii-Chan!
(Stomach Growl)
Ken:
Looks like you're hungry. I have a pair of Bento Lunches with me. You can share with mine, Kubō.
Kubō:
Thanks but I have my own. Enjoy having all of it. We are going to need all our strength in order to survive this place, especially that Bento Boxes have special and unique abilities not found in Potions and they only work if you eat the whole thing on your own.
Ken:
I see…You got a point.
Ken opens his bag and pulls his Bento Boxes and is surprised on the detail of the boxes: it is the same type of both his Mother, Makoto and Childhood Friend, Yayoi would make him back in his past life and he sees the name and description both boxes: "Makoto's Home-Cooking Bento – Description: A Mother's Love In Every Bite – Effect: Full Health, Full Magic, Statuses Restored And Immunities From All Negative Status Effects For 24 Hours". "Yayoi's Home-Cooking Bento – Description: Yayoi's Love For Ken In Every Bite – Effects: 100 Points To Every Stat Including HP And MP, 50% To Immunities And 50% to Health Regen and Exp/Gold Gain For 24 Hours". After reading this, Ken feels sadness as his memories of both his mother and childhood friend starts to make him remember all the times he spent with both of them. He quickly hides his emotions and gives his Mother's Bento to Momo while he eats Yayoi's Bento as they both needs their effects respectively since Momo must be hurt while trying to survive on her own while she got separated from her mother and she might need the healing properties of his Mother's Bento while Ken needs the power boost from Yayoi's Bento in order to survive whatever happens throughout the day. After eating their meals, Ken looks into his Mother and Yayoi's Bento Boxes in the glossary of his phone and finds that there is a Recipe in order to make more.
Ken:
Hey Kubō…
(Shows Phone To Kubō)
…Do you know where to collect these ingredients?
Kubō:
Yep, Yep! These are easy to find, but sadly its pretty expensive. These are High Quality Items that range from 4-Stars and 5-Stars.
Ken:
Aren't that type of Rarity hard to find?
Kubō:
For equipment like weapons, armors and accessories it is, alchemy is slightly easier, but food ingredients are pretty easy to collect depending on the food pyramid. Vegetables, Legumes, Fruit, Grains, Nuts, Seeds, Herb and Spices,Dairy, Meat, Poultry, Fish, Eggs and Saturated Fats…All of them are easily found in the Farmers' Market, but they are expensive due the cultivation process and growing it yourself takes too much time and you also need the right setting and resources like a fertile land, stable weather, a lot of tools, feeding them and such. This a Home Grown Process also called the Domesticated Flavor. But there are some ingredients that are a little harder due to the fact that they can only be grown in the Wild. Depending on how they are raised in a domestic environment, they can produce high quality ingredients as high as 4-Stars; 5-Stars happen if you raise them with the same freedom as the Wild Animals. Wild Fauna and Flora need to hunted and they always produce 5-Star Ingredients so long as they are not either old, dying of natural causes or suffering from nasty effects a virus. But like I said: the Farmers' Market has it all, but you need to have the money.
Ken:
Which of these is the most expensive?
Kubō:
The Feral Dragon Steak Meat. It goes as high as 100,000 Gold per pound so the final price could go as high as over a million.
Ken:
Oof! That expensive, huh?
Kubō:
We could farm that much money around here in about 30 minutes or less thanks to the boost the Bento you ate gave ya.
Ken:
(Amused Scoff)
You've noticed.
Kubō:
Yep, yep! I'm a Dwarf. I have the Scan Ability unlocked right away as soon as I choose my Job Class.
Ken:
I see. So since I am a Human, what will be the ability I will unlock right away?
Kubō:
Unlike the Other Races, Humans can choose any of the Starter Abilities of Any Race. I could tell you, but there are so many races here on Lyriah we are going to be here all day.
Ken:
I get it. We can talk about that when we get to the Adventurer's Guild after we get back.
Momo:
Kenny Onii-Chan, why a Level 1 Human and Level 1 Trader Dwarf are doing in the Dark Lord's Kingdom?
Ken:
A Klutz dropped me her instead of dropping me at Cüer like she was supposed to.
Kubō:
And I am his guide appointed by My Lady.
Momo:
Do you have a weapon?
Ken:
Just this Sling.
Momo:
(Excited)
That's Awesome, Onii-Chan!!!
Ken:
Why is it awesome?
Momo:
Because Slings are Evolution Weapons and an Extremely Rare Weapon too.
Ken:
It is? But it's a 1-Star.
Momo:
But it is an Evolution Weapon meaning that it can evolve from a 1-Star Weapon up to a 6-Star Weapon. Right now that Sling can inflict "Instant Death" at rare occasions depending on how high your Luck is. The effect is amplified on how many Stars it have. A 6-Star Sling can cause Instant Death at a high rate.
Ken:
How high?
Kubō:
If I'm right…I'd say 80 to 88% making it the strongest mid to long range weapon in all of Lyriah.
Ken:
I was planning on selling it once I got my Job Class Weapon, but if its this powerful, I'm going to keep it.
???:
Sling or not, you are still a weakling.
Kubō and Momo hides behind Ken as a group of what appears to be Human Bandits coming out from within the cave and all of them are around Level 50 as their boss is at level 74.
Ken:
(Serious Expression, Distrusting)
We don't want any trouble. We are just here to take shelter from the monsters.
Bandit Boss:
(Evil Smile)
Then you have to pay a toll for using our cave.
Ken:
How much?
Bandit Boss:
Everything you've got.
Ken:
(Annoyed Scoff)
That's not a fair toll if you ask me.
Bandit Boss:
We're in the Dark Lord's Kingdom if you haven't noticed. Fairness is a luxury we do not afford to anyone.
Ken:
"Rules for Thee, But Not For Me". The Slogan of the Corrupt who refuse to take any type of responsibility for their actions…just like the Regime.
Bandit Boss:
Unfortunately in this world The Strong Rules The Weak and with the 3 of you being at level 1—
(Notices Momo's Level, Spooked)
Who the hell!?!?!?
Ken:
(Thinking, Notices His Reaction Towards Momo)
He must have the Scan Ability to see our levels, but why he is scared of Momo's Level and Kubō isn't scared of Momo? Something's off and I don't like it.
Bandit Boss:
(Scared, Furious)
Pal! I'll let you and the Dwarf Punk to live so long as you give us the girl.
Ken:
Why?
Bandit Boss:
Give her now or die where you stand!!!
Ken:
(Whispering)
Kubō…keep Momo-Chan safe. Let me handle this.
Kubō, scared for their lives takes Momo and hides from the Bandits behind a large stalagmite as Ken engages the Bandits carefully as he's at the beginner level compared to them; but thanks to Yayoi's Bento Box, his stats puts him on the same power to them with 100 Points on Physical and Magical/Mental Attack and Defense, Luck and Agility while his Immunities are all at 50% giving him a total of 660 Points. With his stats this high and his skills training he retained from his original life, Ken manages to beat all of the Bandits with either his Sling or having the Bandits unwittingly commit Friendly Fire as they smacked each other around. He defeats the bandits without using anything except for his wits and Sling which propelled his level up to Level 32 thanks to his Exp Boost and now he's fighting their boss. Ken is being careful as well as strategic while fighting a Boss who is still stronger than him. But Ken's stats are 2,520 Points Total now at level 32 which puts him on par with the Bandit Boss which Stats are at 2,712 Points Total at Level 74. Ken dodges and weaves making sure he doesn't hit by The Bandit Boss' Barbarian Ax, but Ken is quite nimble that he manages to slowly defeat the Bandit Boss using his own strength against him by having him hit Key Column/Pillar in the cave causing stalactite falling on him. As he looks weakened, Ken tosses a pebble at the Bandit Boss and thanks the Sling's Special Ability, Ken wins the fight in One Hit, boosting his level from 32 to Level 50 with only 1 Exp shy away to be at Level 51. Furious that Ken not only won, but also is powerful enough to beat them all especially because of the Boost of Yayoi's Bento Box. The bandits and their boss runs away from the cave as both Kubō and Momo run to Ken happily and starts to praise him for protecting them.
Kubō:
(Excited)
Wow, Kenny!!! You Were Awesome!!!
Momo:
(Excited)
Thank you for keeping us safe, Onii-Chan!!!
Ken:
(Smiling)
Anytime. I just hope they don't come back.
Kubō:
That won't happened! You leveled up so fast, they will all think twice before coming here. That Bento was really special! Boosting Stats and Exp-Money Gain is really something. Hey! How much money do we have now thanks to that boost?
Ken:
(Looks At His Phone)
Let's See…
(Surprised)
3,597,443,812 Gold!?
Kubō:
That's More Than Enough To Buy The Ingredients For The Bento Boxes!
Ken:
That's great, but I still am at my Base Class. We need to buy—
Kubō:
Have you forgotten? I'm a Trader and I'm asked by Reyna-Sama to help ya out. So I can get your gear at an affordable price and I can get your food ingredients cheaply too…so long as I get a taste since you are now the most Powerful Newbie in all of Lyriah! You might be the Second Coming of the Blazing Sword, Makoto-Sama!
Ken:
Come on. There's no way I'm going to be that powerful in such a short time. I mean…I literally arrived on this world just today.
Momo:
(Surprised Gasp)
You were born today, Onii-Chan!?
Ken:
(Nervous Smile & Chuckle)
In a way…but I don't think you are ready to know this story. I promise to tell you one day.
Momo:
(Pouting)
Oh, Pooh! I want to know!
Ken:
It's getting late. We should rest and now that I am at a high enough level, we can now look for your mom. We can start looking tomorrow since: One – I'm in my Base Class with Level 1 Equipment and Two – It's almost Nightfall and Monsters tend to be stronger during the night. So let's continues this tomorrow, okay, Momo-Chan?
Momo:
Okay…
Ken:
Kubō? Do you have Sleeping Bags?
Kubō:
Yep, yep! I also have Tents and Cabins, but since we are still alright, we can use the Sleeping Bags.
Ken:
I'll start a fire since we are in a desert, nights tends to be freezing as its scorching during the day.
Momo, Kubō:
Okay!
Later that night while Momo is deep asleep, Ken approaches Kubō…
Ken:
Hey Kubō? Can you use your Scan Ability on Momo-Chan?
Kubō:
Why? She seems normal.
Ken:
I just have this feeling.
Kubō:
Okay, even though this is weird.
(Scans Momo)
Her Level is 1. See? You are worrying for nothing.
Ken:
(Chuckles)
I guess you are right.
(Thinking)
Then why that Bandit got spooked after seeing her up close?
Speaking of the Bandits; at a nearby location, the Bandits camp near the cave in order to get their revenge against Ken, Kubō and kill Momo. They are preparing to start to mobilize as soon as the fire Ken lit in the cave goes out, signaling them that they are all asleep. When the fire goes out, their boss signals them to kill them all, but none of his men responded. He looks and see them all dead as a Beautiful Woman With Tanned-Skin, Bright Ruby Red Hair And Eyes Wearing Thigh-High Black High-Heel Boots, A Mono V-Type and Shaped Black Spandex, Long Black Gloves, Demon Wings and a Broadsword made of Steel and Flesh that's even have a heartbeat as the devil woman walks towards the Bandit Boss and cuts him down mercilessly. Before dying, The Bandit Boss Scans that this Devil's Level is at 200. Now this Devil Woman sets her sights at the cave where Ken, Kubō and Momo are.
Inside the cave, the Devil Woman kneels next to Momo and places her hand on her head; she smiles and then looks at the sleeping Ken. She walks to him and once she reaches him, she towers over him as she stares at him with a stern look in her eyes.
Scene 2.1: The Crimson Sands Desert ([Former] Bandit Cave) 5:15, Thursday December 13th
Ken wakes up early in the morning as he is accustomed to is caught by surprise as the Devil Woman is sleeping next to him as she cuddles him and purrs like a kitten. Not to wake her up and scare either Kubō and Momo from the intruder getting startled by his overreaction, but she is aware that Ken is awake as she lovingly looks at him.
???:
(Loving Smile, Beautiful Sexy Sultry Voice)
Good morning, My Beloved Ken-Sama!
Ken:
(Puzzled Look)
Do I know you?
???:
No, but we can start now and work our way to the Honeymoon…Later Tonight.
Ken:
(Annoyed Sigh, Thinking)
First I meet a Klutzy Angel and Now I meet a Lovey-Dovey Devil.
(Sarcastically)
My Life Is Awesome…NOT!!!
(Out Loud)
You seem to know my name, but I don't know yours.
Roux:
You can call me Roux, Ken-Sama.
Ken:
Are you sure your name isn't Ruax? Because I feel I'm going to suffer Major Headaches from now on.
Roux:
(Furious)
That's the name of a relative I downright despise more than anyone. He is so Vain, his obnoxiousness are the cause of his stupid powers. He's just so—GRRR!!!
With her loud growl, Kubō and Momo wakes up as Kubō instantly recognize Roux and is scared out of his wits that is unable to speak while Momo is overjoyed in seeing Roux as she runs to her and hugs her lovingly as Momo calls Roux…
Momo:
(Overjoyed, Hugs Roux)
MAMA! I MISSED YOU!!
Ken:
(Surprised)
MAMA!?!?!? Momo-Chan…Are you—?
Momo:
(Saddened)
Sorry, Onii-Chan. I didn't want to scare you. But my full name is Matilda Octavia Millicent Odessa.
Ken:
M.O.M.O…Momo for short. You really have a penchant for names, don't you, Roux-San?
Roux:
(Hugs MOMO)
She's my beloved treasure! She needs a defined name to show how much I love her.
MOMO:
And I love my Mama just as much!
Ken:
So I noticed.
Roux:
And…
(Loving Gaze & Smile)
I looked into my MOMO-Chan's mind and saw how Chivalrous you were. I want to thank you for everything you did for my Princess…and my reward is…Me Becoming Your Bride Now And Forever.
Ken:
(Facepalm, Annoyed Sigh)
So this is why you are so affectionate towards me. Sorry but I have to—
Kubō:
(Scared Out Of His Wits)
KENNY!!! I NEED TO TALK TO YOU RIGHT NOW!!!
Ken:
Alright…You don't mind?
Roux:
Not at all…but before you go…Kubō was it? If you say a little too much about us…
(Demonic Eye Glow, Sneering)
You will live the rest of your life as a Naked Dwarf.
Kubō nods terrifyingly slow as he walks slowly out of fear along with Ken to a small corner where he thinks they cannot be heard, but deep down knows that Roux can hear everything no matter what.
Ken:
I get the feeling that we're screwed here.
Kubō:
You have no idea, Kenny. I wish I can tell you everything, but when Roux makes her threats…she's not telling everything she will actually do. But I can't tell you about that. All I can tell you is that She Is One Of The Most Powerful Devils In All Of Lyriah. Like…really Powerful! And don't get me started on MOMO! She's way deadlier than Roux! She's so deadly, she's literally the Most Wanted Assassin In All Of Lyriah!!! And They Are Both At Level 200!!!
Ken:
Really? That's odd.
Kubō:
What is!?
Ken:
If MOMO-Chan is that powerful…then why didn't she fight back either to protect herself from the Goblins or against the Bandits?
Kubō:
WHO CARES!?!?!? They are trouble!!!! If we stick with them, they will—
Ken:
I don't think that will happen.
Kubō:
How can you be so sure!?
Ken:
Well…I will admit that they're trouble, but…I always had this Sixth Sense where I can tell something's off…like they are hiding some deep secret that is pretty life-changing. How life-changing? I don't want to sound offensive, but the deep secret is quite Humbling.
Kubō:
Humbling?
Ken:
Like A Big Screw-Up That Leads To A Deep Regret or A Heartfelt Betrayal. I don't think they are the type to Screw-Up…maybe they were betrayed?
Kubō:
(Laughs Uncontrollably)
Ken:
(Looks At Kubō Seriously, Raises Eyebrow)
Kubō:
(Surprised)
Oh, God! You Serious!?
Ken:
(Sarcastic)
No, I'm practicing my Stand-Up Comedy before taking the Jester Job Class.
Kubō:
(Mild Chuckle)
Okay, that sarcasm was actually funny, but I don't think she was betrayed. Because she's—
(Notices Roux Glaring At Him Intensely, Spooked)
—Never Mind! Forget about it! But I suggest you don't trust them.
Ken:
I know how you feel, but…when I know someone is hiding a deep secret like that, I can't turn a blind eye to it. Anyhoo…Let's gives them a chance. Who knows? Something good could come out of this.
Kubō:
(Doubtful)
I don't know…
Ken:
Trust me. Also we need the muscle to reach Ram-North and the only way to do that is to get out of the Dark Lord's Kingdom with their help.
Kubō:
Alright…but the first sign of danger, I'm leaving.
Ken:
(Smiling)
Thanks, little buddy.
(Approaches Roux & MOMO)
Alright! We'll let you join our Party.
Roux:
Thank you for taking us in, beloved.
Ken:
(Nervous Chuckle)
Looks like I'll have to get used to that. By the way MOMO-Chan…why didn't you defended yourself when you could? Kubō told me you and your Mom are at Level 200.
MOMO:
(Saddened)
.......................................…
Roux:
She trusted someone she shouldn't have and now she's stuck in her Child Form for the rest of her life until this curse is undone.
Ken:
She's Cursed to stay as a child? How old are you really MOMO-Chan?
MOMO:
(Ashamed, Blushing, Avert Eyes From Ken)
.......................................…
Roux:
She's 2,900 Years-Old.
MOMO:
(Ashamed, Blushing)
MAMA!!! You Just Don't Tattle A Maiden's Age Like That!!!
Roux:
The reason you are stuck in that body is because you are too innocent when it comes to your private life.
Ken:
And you, Roux-San?
Roux:
I'll be 2,999 Years-Old Next Week. Unlike My Dear Daughter, I am not ashamed of my private life and I don't mind making it public.
(Perverted Smile & Expression)
But for you, Kenny…I can show you more than I normally show and tell in a very personal level.
Ken:
No Thanks! I'm fine with the Public Statements.
Roux:
If you change your mind—
Ken:
(Nervous Smile)
I'll keep that in mind. By the way MOMO-Chan…does your enemies know what you look like now?
MOMO:
Luckily not all of them.
Ken:
But that means some of them do.
(Sighs)
Then we need to be extra careful while we travel. What should we look out for too?
Roux:
You don't have to worry about me. I can easily fit in and if I know we will encounter someone who would recognize me, I'll stick to the shadows over you from a distance until it's safe.
Ken:
Have you ever met The Blazing Sword, Makoto-Sama?
Roux:
(Annoyed, Looks Away In Disgust)
.......................................…
Ken:
Roux-San?
MOMO:
(Devilish Smile)
Mama fell in love with him at one point, but he said to her he would never marry a Devil who wishes to strip away The Will Of The People.
Ken:
Well…you are a General for the Dark Lord, so if he is a Hero, of course he wants nothing to do with you.
Roux:
(Bawling Like A Child)
But He Was Really Mean About It!! Really, REALLY Mean About It!!!
Ken:
(Sighs, Pats Roux's Head)
There, there.
Roux:
(Thinking, Blushing, Happy)
This Feels Really Nice…I could get use to this…
Ken:
So in other words he's a frenemy or something along those lines.
Roux:
(Blushing, Acting Like A Strong Woman)
Who needs Him!? I found someone better than him who can appreciate and love me and my daughter.
MOMO:
(Blushing, Ashamed)
DON'T SAY IT IT LIKE THAT!!! MAMA BAKA!!!
Ken:
(Thinking)
Why do I get the feeling she wants a Polygamy Marriage Between Me, Her And MOMO? Well, I am on another world.
