Hiroyuki glanced at Hotaru but just nodded and walked away from the two, Larel wasted no time following Hotaru more than happy to put some distance between the two of them. He looked over at Hotaru and smiled a little hearing about her curiosity in Kabuki, he found it interesting himself and he had a few stories to share about it, though the idea of resting in the inn sounded pretty good right now.
"We'll talk about it once we're in the room, I'm sure Mera-sama knows about Kabuki, but I had to pretend to be one of the actors once back when I served my old master and it was an experience."

Alari nodded catching the small smirk from Mera as he understood what she meant, if this was a way to take care of Sybil, which coming from Nero's knowledge he didn't doubt, taking precautions was understandable. If he was just in possession of it Hotaru could just steal it without anyone needing to be harmed in the matter, though admittedly he didn't like stealing either in this circumstance he didn't see talking to him being an option and getting rid of Sybil was important.
She's caused this much trouble already just from being inside Hotaru, having her stick around wouldn't be good for anyone's health.
"It's something to work towards at least if need be I'll do whatever I can to help," Alari said nodding. "Actually Mera while we have a moment there's something I wanted to tell you, it's-"
Alari cut himself off as he noticed Hotaru, catching the look from Mera he didn't speak any further and thanked her once she handed him the key.
He told himself he'd have to pay her back for doing this, though he couldn't help but smile at the gesture.

Larel had followed behind Hotaru and when his gaze met Alari's his happy expression immediately soured and he narrowed his eyes at him, he mentally judged the distance between him and Mera but Alari had already stepped away from her at that point.
"Thank you again for the meal Mera-sama," Larel said before walking closer to Alari. "Your student is here Alari."
Alari blinked a few times at him before Larel crossed his arms and glanced to his right for a moment before speaking again.
"Hiroyuki is here Alari, Zenmaru asked me to inform you," he said. 
"He's not my... never mind thank you for letting me know then," Alari said as he removed his glasses. "Speaking of which I need to borrow her."
"Borrow wh-"
Larel's words were cut off as Alari slammed two fingers into Larel's skull, the moment he did a woman burst out of Larel backwards and put her feet down to catch herself stumbling a little.
Her long black hair was in a braid and dressed in grey kimono with black hakama she flexed her hands and arms getting a feel for her current form, Zenmaru's appearance almost resembled a female Larel though her facial features were different then before, mostly a smaller chin and thinner eyebrows, her eyes were still the same yellow though.
"Not my real body but I'll take it," Zenmaru said grinning. "Must be important if you're giving me a physical body."
"Don't get used to it," Alari said opening the door to his room and holding it open. "Thankfully no one saw but hurry before that changes."
Larel looked back between the two of them and pat his body, seeing the confusion on his face Zenmaru spoke to him.
"We're still together inside Larel don't worry," she said ruffling his hair. "Alari just gave me a bit of authority is all, I'll back back in a few minutes."
She glanced over at Mera and Hotaru smiling at them before turning and entering the room.
"Alari you-" Larel stared but stopped as Alari glanced sideways at him.
"I'll keep an eye on her so don't worry."
"That's not what I was getting at, how did you-"
"Not important please excuse me, have a pleasant evening you three."
Larel went to say something else but Alari walked into the room and closed the door, Larel ruffled his hair staring at the door before shaking his head.
"He's acting weirder than usual," he mumbled before turning towards the room. "Whatever it's not like he'll say anything anyway. So let me tell you more about the north."
