Hisoka begins to think of the tactical insight given to him by his Servant, not drinking any more of the wine, at least for now. If in the off-chance he gets caught out after being too inebriated, it will bring the War to an early close.

[color=ed1c24]"I agree. We will have to play the long game, at least for the time being. A few of the other Masters are known to be participating in the war, myself included. It will either come to the point where they hire me out, or decide to kill me just for being a disgrace to the Magus Association, alone."

"For tonight, we will continue to fortify our base of operations. We will have to wait until tomorrow for us to survey the city. With you being an Assassin, we may not be able to stand a direct fight. Perhaps if we also have more time tonight, we can try our hand at seeing if I am able to reinforce you, physically. It will even do us well to discuss your other skills later, tonight. For now, though, I will start on creating a familiar for the church. Hopefully we can gain recon on our enemy, through there."[/color] 

Hisoka stood up, giving a bow to his Servant, before heading to the basement. Hisoka spent much of the night setting up s Workshop, creating a familiar out of a small Plover- a bird- and preparing to send it out to the Church. He figured for future reference, he should set a bird house come morning, so the act of creating more familiars will come easier, to send off to other tactical locations.

After these were done, and the familiar was sent off, Hisoka sat in the common room once again, bringing a large briefcase onto the table. The case contained Hisoka's preferred weapon of choice for long-range encounter, the PSG1. Hisoka favored the semi-automatic rifle for its accuracy, as the gun was used by many special forces and law enforcement agencies around the world. Hisoka took it out of the case, inspecting its action, and adjusting its iron sight. Hisoka didn't need a scope for the rifle, as he could easily reinforce his sight instead.

After getting a bit of his bearing with the rifle, Hisoka brought another, smaller case into the room. It contained two impressive looking pistols. He took one of the pistols out, and started inspecting its action as well, pulling back its slide. The model was an improved variation of the Korean sidearm, the Daewoo Precision Industries K5. Known as just the LH9, this model was only a prototype for a pistol scheduled to release sometime in the 2010s. Still, though, it was a well-functioning prototype, indeed, and its sleek design along wih its ease of use resulted in Hisoka obtaining two of the same model.

These were his tools for his trade. His magecraft, his firearms, and even himself. He's used them many times before, but now, things are different. The occasion just felt much more fitting.

It will mark the first time Hisoka's used his tools for a War.
