[h1]Gintoki[/h1] "Er... yeah, okay. Sure. I'll take your word for it." Gintoki said, rolling his eyes. There was no way in hell that he'd be freaked out by any thiii... Gintoki's thoughts immediately slowed down as he walked past more and more monster girls. Though the initial two maids, he reasoned, were simply cosplaying and/or holograms, the more he passed the more it dawned on him that he was actually facing all of these monsters... Except as girls, of course. That meant that it was actually a ghost....? This mission went from 'okay' to 'creepy' to 'what the hell am I doing here' more quickly than he would've liked. Maybe he should've taken the situation a bit more seriously... And as soon as he walked into the room with the actual jewel, his jaw may as well have dropped to the floor. That jewel was... Incredibly huge; how in the world that this vampire loli could've gotten that, much less someone taking it away, was nearly unfathomable. "Uh. Okay. Well, if that's all we needed to know I'm going to be riiiight back. As in, outside of this mansion. Good bye. Bye. Peace." he said, quickly making a complete 180. No way in hell was he staying around ghosts and former dungeons and the like. Nope nope nope. [h1]Kakine[/h1] "Aaand I saw that coming from a mile away. God dammit." Kakine sighed as the witch blazed off on her broom towards the city. Though he would have much preferred to go through this without incident, the way things tended to work out made that more or less an impossibility. Though by this point he would've turned his Dark Matter into something to propel them forward, the regulations the city had and his aversion to making this become an even bigger mess was... Yeah... "Shoot. Sorry, 10032. We're gonna have to sprint." he said, turning the pair of earbuds he had given Marisa earlier into a small pair of beetles. At least this way, he could track her movements about the city without going on a wild goose chase. "She's headed towards District 15, as expected, but i'm almost sure she'll begin to deviate from that course soon enough. We have to get moving." he said, beginning to dash after the girl on a broomstick. [h1]Hazama[/h1] As Hazama continued to walk along musing to himself, a novel idea popped into his head. Given how old the kingdom was- which was, of course, to be expected- there were bound to be some sort of passageways into the inner workings of the city. Of course, the newer buildings were worthless to him in that regard, but maybe if he looked around for some older buildings... And thus began Hazama's search for older buildings in search of underground passageways. Of course, barging into any occupied homes was a recipe for disaster, so in order to minimize the chance of him being discovered he began by searching through the most decrepit; around the twelfth house or so, he happened upon a strange girl- probably of Asian descent- popping out of the wall through a hole before the hole closed itself back up. That was... Convenient. Though the feeding of whole half-grown bird fetus thing to that girl- some sorta jiang-shi, given whatever he had managed to dig up from SE's databases and whatever it was he knew about the things- was a bit strange, he had to admit that such an ability would make his job tens of thousands of times easier. Well, if the girl had the ability to pop in and out of walls like that, she'd help him out and do it again. "Pardon me." Hazama said, walking over to the two girls. "Noticed you just popped out of that wall over there. Mind helping me out a bit?" He flashed a disarming smile, but given his experiences here in the past few days (and how everyone in the nobility seemed to want to brawl or turn him into a slave or some sorta shit like that) he wasn't entirely sure how well it'd work. Oh well, if worst came to worst he could use Ouroboros to fly the hell outta there and do some recon elsewhere. And... Well, to be fair, it was kind of unnatural seeing someone pop out of a wall like that. Maybe this was a bad idea.
