Niko slightly smirks, then looks confused when she hides. When he hears what Nicole says, looks and notices Devil Areui, however, he suddenly looks shocked beyond all belief.

"What!? That's impo-"

He quickly interrupts himself, as Devil Areui might hear him otherwise, and thanks to Future!Nicole pulling him down, is able to hide as well, still looking pale with shock.

What an odd reaction for him to have after having talked so much about following the demon around...

She prepare to answer but look on at Niko.

"Huh ? What's impossible ?"

"Greetings.", Shaero replies.

Shaeanor still stares at Buja.

"If I had to guess, I'd say Niko wasn't expecting Devil Aruei to actually be here before us," Future!Nicole says to Sandra. "I've got a bad feeling about this..."

She lays a comforting hand on Niko's shoulder, then gives him a reassuring smile.

"Stay calm, okay, Niko? Hopefully, the demon'll be leaving soon."

Bruja turns her head like a owl.

"What are you looking at"

Niko looks a little lost as to what to say, but upon hearing Future!Nicole immediately nods, smiling in a panicked-looking way.

"Y-yeah! I mean, of all the places I've marked, for him to be on the last one... I mean... crazy coincidence, right?", he says in a hushed voice. He then tries to calm down, having moderate success.

Devil Areui, meanwhile, hasn't heard them, then stops drinking. It gets up, stretches, gets on all fours, crawls in a circle for a while like a dog would, then lays down, seemingly falling asleep.


Tyler smiles.

"So I guess you're the reason Thomas stopped playing his flute, huh? Once he starts he tends to keep playing until he feels like doing something else, so that's pretty impressive actually."

Thomas gives Tyler an annoyed glance.

"Why can't you just call me Tom?"

"Because then your reaction wouldn't be funny.", Tyler says, smirking mischievously.

She frowns visibly at Niko but focus on Devil Areui first, and blinks when he sleeps.

"Erm, this is awkward."

Future!Nicole fixes Niko with an inquisitive look.

"Call me paranoid but... is there something you're not telling us here, Niko? Because it doesn't seem coincidental that Devil Aruei managed to be here before us."

Upon noticing that Devil Aruei had fallen asleep, she lets out a sigh before facepalming.

"Ugh... this sure makes things problematic. Was it too much to ask that the demon just leave after quenching its thirst?"

She looks at Sandra.

"What do you think, Sandy, is it just me or is there something wrong with this picture?"

Niko glances at Future!Nicole, then tries smiling again.

"What wouldn't I be telling you? I couldn't know it'd actually show up at this place. I wasn't sure if this place was even the last point or not until just now.", he says, trying to sound confident. He quickly grabs his map and pencil.

"G-guess I'll mark this location now, huh?"

Goldshire Inn

Inside the inn, just by a row of chairs, Frigidus is visible, just drinking some water while reading a book.


And, on the other side of the inn, Vibril is also present, tapping his foot a little while eating soup.

Future!Nicole narrows her eyes at Niko, then lets out a sigh.

"Fine, just mark the location down so we can get the heck outta here."


Goldshire Inn

Frigidus might just notice Wanda entering the inn, though she hasn't seen him just yet.

Frigidus, by contrast, does notice Wanda heading inside the inn, as he looks up and smiles brightly, before waving at her.

"Hey, Wanda!"


Vibril seems to have also seen Wanda, freezing up in place and tensing in the process, becoming a shade paler than he is supposed to be.

Niko quickly marks it down on his map. He looks up at Future!Nicole and Sandra and nods.

"Now we just need to sneak away quietl-"

Cue Devil Areui suddenly getting up, causing Niko to put his hand over his mouth and slowly glance over his hiding spot. Did it hear them?

Beat

Luckily, it apparen't didn't, as it suddenly runs into a whole different direction. In just a matter of seconds it's gone. Niko sighs in relief.


Seeing as the vampires left, Tom returns to playing his flute in peace while Tyler starts to nap.

Future!Nicole watches as Devil Aruei suddenly departs.

"All in all, that went better than I expected."

She looks at Sandra, an eyebrow raised.

"That'd be kinda pointless, what with Devil Aruei leaving just now and all."

Her gaze shifts over to Niko.

"So... I guess that means you've placed all of your markers now, huh?"


Wanda's ears perk up upon hearing Fridgus, and she turns to greet him with a smile.

"Ah, hello there, Frigidus! I was hoping I'd run into you today."

She walks over to the other mage, then takes a seat next to him.

"As much as I'd enjoy catching up with you, there's something that I could use your help with."


Meanwhile, Vibril might just notice someone else sitting at a table near him.

Frigidus nods a little, softly smiling at Wanda... and his expression shifts into one of concern when she mentions that she needs his help, the albino nodding a little and looking somewhat grim.

"...Well, what do you need help with? I'll see if I can do something for it."


Vibril blinks, glancing around, before noticing the person near him, and just nodding uncertainly at them.

"Oh, hi."

Niko looks down at his map.

"I... I guess so.", he says, smiling, though not sounding as happy as one'd expect him to be. He sounds slightly bothered actually.


Outside of the inn, Ninten happens to pass on by, carrying some bags of food he's tasked with bringing to the base. Afraid to use his 4th-D Slip teleportation in case it messes up the food, he's decided to walk.

He spots Wanda through the window though, and ponders whether he should go say hi or just go bring the groceries. He figures that the food won't spoil from a few minutes more and heads for the entrance, but doesn't enter just yet.

Goldshire - near the inn

Calvin Riker is standing around somewhere nearby. He's not doing too much, just standing around.

Future!Nicole gives Niko a concerned look.

"Is... something the matter, Niko? I thought you'd be a bit happier about wrapping this up."


"It has something to do with a friend of mine; specifically, a boy named Ninten. Thanks to an incident, he's found himself without his vocal cords and using telepathy to communicate since then. While he became adjusted to it over time to the point that he actually refused Pietro's initial offer to have you restore them, he's since reconsidered and wants them restored by means of Ars Vivonis."

Wanda pauses momentarily to let Frigidus take all of that in, then continues.

"So... would you be willing to do just that, Frigidus? Not only would he be able to speak again after so long, it would allow him to access an ability that may prove vital to ridding the Arena of one of its oldest and greatest threats."


The newcomer, Severus, simply glances at Vibril before raising an eyebrow.

"Hello. Do... my eyes decieve me or is your hair actually made of crystals, of all things?"

He doesn't seem to have noticed the nearby Calvin yet.

Frigidus just sits down and listens intently, biting his lip a little when Wanda begins to recount Ninten's story... and then he nods and smiles at her, still as pure-hearted as ever.

"Well, of course! I definitely wouldn't mind helping your friend, and you, as well. Hmm... when should we meet up?"


Vibril looks at Severus for a moment, before the crystal-haired man awkwardly shrugs, touching the solid mass a little. He also fails to notice Calvin for the meantime.

"Yes, my hair is made of crystal. What, is there a problem with that?"

Niko looks at Future!Nicole, smiling.

"Ah, I am! It's just, well, I've been doing this for so long, it hasn't really fully... sunk in yet, y'know. I actually came to kinda like this place. Being here made me a lot less timid... I resemble my family a bit more now, huh?"

He then, for a second, looks a little troubled when he hears Sandra, then puts on a smile again.

"Right, I promised, huh? ... Yeah, then I'll go home too."


While not yet having entered, Ninten is close enough to hear Wanda and Frigidus' conversation. Overwhelmed by happiness at realizing that Wanda's talking to the friend she mentioned like she promised, he actually has to stop himself from jumping in joy to prevent the groceries from falling down.

He actually feels his heart skip a beat in joy when he also hears Frigidus accepting to bring his voice back. It's really gonna happen! After three whole years without it!

In his joy, he pretty much notices nothing around him, fully focused on Wanda and Frigidus. Really, someone could walk up to him to kill him and he wouldn't notice right now.

Calvin is rather close to the inn now. He doesn't say anything.
