The odd ikemen's behaviour was certainly carefree. Rather than be even more amazed at the fact that strangers plummeted to a meadow and lived, his initial childlike wonder had been replaced by pure amusement, if nothing else. One girl got a face full of petals and stems. Her shrieks of terror at being blinded gave the ikemen a quick chuckle. The total nonchalant attitude of the girl who spat out clumps of dirt was also worthy of a smile. The second smallest of them, a boy, spoke about what he had saw. [color=a0e39d]"A creepy skull person..."[/color] For a brief moment, the smile on his face vanished as he became lost in thought. Just as quickly, he shook his head out of the sudden funk and regained a soft smile. As he saw the shirtless oni stretch towards the sky, his eyes opened as much as they could. A quick whistle escaped from his lips. The distinct weew noise. But a fifth figure popped up from their crater. A female oni came out and, as soon as her feet met stable ground, she dropped forward. The ikemen paused for a moment before swinging one leg over the saddle and hopping onto the ground. He lowered himself, one knee on the ground, and outstretched a metal hand towards her. [color=a0e39d]"A hand, m'lad—"[/color] [color=827CD3]"Young maaasssteeeer~~!!"[/color] A woman's voice called out from the treeline. Alongside the cracking of twigs and sticks, [url=https://i.imgur.com/RR0Sm2d.png]a woman barrelled out of the forest.[/url] Her extraordinarily long hair carried dozens of leaves and twigs within it. She huffed and puffed the second she entered the meadow. Unlike the man, she was fully armed with blade in hand and ivory-painted plate covering her body. Only catching her breath for a fraction of a second, she looked at the group before her. To one side, the ikemen and his horse. At his feet was a pale oni seeking comfort in the dirt. 5 craters littered the ground between the obelisk and the ikemen. People were in those craters, the most notable being the giant mass of muscle stretching upwards. Wait, weren't those two oni? [color=827CD3]"How... How dare you..."[/color] The woman's voice was filled with frustration and anger. Her face scrunched as she could barely contain her rage. [color=827CD3]"How dare you damage the young master's land and... And..."[/color] The second act was too terrible for her to speak. She could barely speak it out loud without the rage stopping her [color=827CD3]"force him on his knee! Get away from him, you ignorant cretin!"[/color] Charging forth with sword in hand, she dashed towards the neck of the sprawled out oni. The smiling ikemen turned toward the woman. A single "eh" escaped from hips lips as a cold sweat ran down his brow. [color=a0e39d]"W-wait Yda!"[/color] He panicked as he stuttered out everything he could. [color=a0e39d]"Don't! Stop! No! Bad!"[/color] His commands felt more as though he were speaking to a dog. The woman, in almost comical fashion, sheathed her blade as she ran. She dropped to her knees, sliding on dew-covered grass until she came to a complete stop. Instantly, her upper body lurched forwards and she buried her skull into the ground. Her hands stretched in front of her. This was the legendary flying kowtow. [color=827CD3]"M-my apologies young master! Please forgive this humble servant!"[/color] The ikemen coughed, a hand covering his mouth as he looked away from the group. Regaining his composure, he turned back to the group. The same amiable smile on his face as always. [color=a0e39d]"Well then, what brings you to my lands?"[/color] Out of anywhere to crash land, the party of five had crashed in front of the two largest idiots in the continent.
