Scene change to outside
Yingli:
…!!!
Isn’t that one of Marduk’s more deadly units? What is it doing here?
Aaron:
I fought them with Van in Tharbad and Basel! We were barely able to handle them! Damn it!
Voice:
Looks like we arrived just in time.
Aaron (narration):
A few ofuda landed on the archaism and a number of throwing knives pierced its joints.
Aaron:
…!!
Took you long enough!
Cao:
We were misdirected several times trying to locate you two.
Yingli:
Thank you for the support, Master Lee.
Aaron:
I am guessing we have another one on the other side.
Yingli:
Judging by the mana I am sensing…
Cao:
Very astute. We already have that under control.
Scene change to the Harbour District
Aaron (narration):
Heiyue gave us a hand with taking the tourists back to the hotel. They took the shady ass tour guides in too.
Ashen:
Aaron!!! Yingli!!!
I’m so glad you two are safe!!
So scared something happened to you! It was really hard locating you guys!!
Please promise me you won’t do anything like this again!!
Aaron:
There, there. You don’t have to freak out anymore, we’re here.
Ashen:
Aaron, you big dummy!!
Yingli:
Hehe.
Aaron:
That’s right, we found a few ofuda down there, thought you should know.
Cao:
How curious, this might be related to the misdirection we endured. Thank you, Aaron.
Yingli:
Hopefully you’ll be able to locate the leader of this operation, it is unsure if there are other facilities like this set up around Langport. I fear more people may go missing.
Cao:
Leave everything to us, Yingli.
Yingli:
Thank you, Master Lee. Ah, here are the recipes for the drugs the tourists were made to create. I have taken every digital copy of it offline as well.
Cao:
Hooh… letting you spend time with Marduk’s concierge had some benefits.
Aaron:
If there isn’t anything you need from us, we’re getting out of here. I need to change out of this costume.
Cao:
You are all dismissed.
