Mao's Battlebook: Entry 001 ♪ action

[blazing_heart]

<sub>[Hey Luceti!

There's this one redhead, who's walking around the village as if he was looking for someone. He doesn't really seem lost, but judging from clothes he's wearing, he's obviously new here.

After a moment of searching though, he scratches the back of his head and makes a thoughtful look. It seems he won't find his friends here. But they're okay for sure, so there's nothing to worry.

And so, instead, Mao turns around and walks up to the first person he sees.]</sub>

Excuse me! Can you tell me where am I?

[blazing_heart]

Make the most of our time here, huh? Well, I guess that's the only thing we can do.

[penetrated]

Essentially... [Thankfully, he's saved from musing over that by their arrival at the clothes shop!]

Ah, this is the place for now!

[blazing_heart]

This?

_{[He gives the shop a curious look. He has no money to pay for anything.]}

[penetrated]

Mm! [He catches that look! Most likely...]

Ah, we don't have any money here, so there's no need to pay for things! ... I'm not sure if we can still call it a 'shop' like that, but that's how it is!!

[blazing_heart]

That's weird, but it's definitely not something you can complain about, right?

_{[because it's good things are for free here. Definitely good.]}

[penetrated]

Yeah! Since we're being held here, I guess having money would be weird anyway, right?

[blazing_heart]

I guess so, but it feels weird to take something from a shop and not paying for it...

[penetrated]

Then... since it doesn't really use money, why not try thinking of it as something that's not a shop? Like a lost-and-found area!

[blazing_heart]

I guess you're right.

[penetrated]

Mm! So, let's go together?

[blazing_heart]

Yup~ Let's go!

_{[he goes first~]}

[penetrated]

[and Aoba comes following after~!]

So, what sort of things are we looking for?

[blazing_heart]

Well, other than my clothes, I'm also missing my tonfa.

[penetrated]

Eh... You fight with something like that, then?

[blazing_heart]

That's right!

[penetrated]

Wahh... that's kind of cool!

[blazing_heart]

_{[he laughs a little.]}

Only kind of?

[penetrated]

But fighting with something like a tonfa must take a lot of practice, right?

[blazing_heart]

I've been fighting with it for us long as I remember...

_{[which means... about a year.]}

[penetrated]

Eh~... So you're a fighter? [he's thinking like, karate practitioners and stuff here.]

[blazing_heart]

_{[he used to be a soldier.]}

...I guess you can call it like that.

[penetrated]

So... did you fight in tournaments and stuff like that?

[blazing_heart]

Nope. But I fought a lot of monsters on my travels with Eugene and others.

[penetrated]

'Monsters'...? Um, there are things like that in your world?

[blazing_heart]

Yeah! There aren't any in your world?
