A few miles away from the city, huh…that isn’t so bad. Even if it does come crashing down, there won’t be any terrible inconveniences to the city itself. The only problem, then, would be of getting there...
The immortal looked over the details of the mission once more, and nodded in approval. Five million, even if it were split into two halves, was still a tidy amount, and he wasn’t hurting for money anyways. He’ll have to call a friend to send the two Chasers up there, but even after paying the dude, there should still be enough left over to splurge on food and other meaningless luxuries.
“Isn’t it a ghost ship though?” Rui-Ling interjected at Kazuki’s confident gesture, “If you don’t think you can handle ghosts, why would you be better at handling ghost ships?”
“As for boarding it, however,” he continued, “I have an acquaintance who’s a friend of an owner of a sightseeing company specializing in helicopter rides. Shouldn’t be that big of a problem, getting on, as long as there’s nothing annoying like ghostly anti-air turrets.” Following the man to his car and realizing he didn’t recall whether or not he paid the bill for his multitude of desserts, the old youth decided that, since no one stopped him, he must have paid it off already, and continued on to the parking lot, guilt-free. The eyepatch kid’s car was rather…plain, but understandable. Sonomachi was far from peaceful, after all, so chances were high that an overzealous Chaser might do some collateral damage while they worked. Better to get a decent vehicle instead of a nice one.
Or be like Rui-Ling and take public transit, because he had all the time in the world.
As Kazuki drove out of town, Rui-Ling made a short call, setting up a quick rental of one of the helicopters. All he needed was some assistance with ascending, after all, and dropping a million yen as a service fee wasn’t a problem at all for him. With that matter settled, what remained was simply for the car to arrive at the destination. Looked like Kazuki wanted to engage in some small talk on the way there, and Rui-Ling decided that he could oblige.
“Good for you. Should find people with similar powers to you and start a clean energy movement. God knows how much longer the planet has until it turns into Venus or something,” Rui-Ling said, before pulling up the sleeve of his left arm and showing off its silver tone. “I don’t stay dead and I can grab souls. Makes me pretty useful against murderhobos and ghosts, but I can probably kill anything and everything.”

Okie, I'll get to work on the CS after I make progress with a college essay (and my progress I mean start of course.) Also, seeing some familiar faces in this RP... Like @j8cobYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. -flails arms- and @Ashifili, though I don't expect them to remember me.
But um, yeah, will use this post as a placeholder.
Damn, asshole confirmed. Fisting commence.
Gae Bolg only ever killed mortals though. Even if, say, it had the conceptual ability to impart death onto all subjects, the problem with Rui-Ling is that his immortality takes the shape of 'automatic resurrection after death'. It's not killing Rui-Ling that's the problem. It's the 'automatic resurrection' that needs to be taken care of somehow, but currently, yea, Lucille's the only one that can keep him dead, and even then, that's only until she tires of lugging his corpse around with her everywhere.
In regards to geis, there's a similar problem...
Kek, with all the money that Chikage's throwing around, I wonder if someone will eventually just straight up purchase the Dangeki Cosplay Shop. XD

A geis can be compared with a curse or, paradoxically, a gift. If someone under a geis violates the associated taboo, the infractor will suffer dishonor or even death.

In Pokemon terms, using a holy weapon against a holy existence sounds like the sort of thing that makes people go 'It's very ineffective!'
Would be funny though, having a spell named after the weapon that you needed in order to kill yourself.

It's Kongou.
Mm, works with me. And hm...I'll probably dive into Irish research some time later to come up with a definitively anti-Irish-God weapon. Probably something centered around the Fomorians, or maybe just a plain ol' Lance of Longinus.

First off...Lucille has some sort of supernatural-detecting sense? She can tell immortal god-hybrid-things from regular Youkai?
Second off...dat 8.3% chance of getting the right answer...
Third off...do things like immortality-ending weapons or supernatural-cancelling abilities exist outside of Lucille? Cause Rui-Ling's been searching for a way to end his immortality for some time now (at least so he can age), and it's been rationalized in his CS that his divinity is as natural as the idea that every human has a soul.
Just want some idea of the rulings behind all this, as well as some world-expansion. Probably would have liked to know that methods of immortality-removal existed in this universe when my CS was first made, really...XD
And boo, no Shiina reactions to the latter half of my post.

Well, when he has no lines on his face (yay for anime-style pictures erasing all signs of aging!), he looks more like a university student. Which is still a kid to Rui-Ling.
Rui-Ling relaxed as Sheridan retracted her gun, shoving it back into her bag like an overeager American. That blue-haired eyepatch dude had the right idea, really, and even though Rui-Ling didn’t know who exactly he was, the young immortal decided that it was nice to have someone with a good head over his shoulders. And thank god cat-girl maid’s estimations were far off. It’d be quite a mess if it was dead, all things considered. Deciding that everything was now in order, Rui-Ling went back to waiting for Chikage to get her shit sorted and went back to chomping away at his desserts…until his sharp ears caught Reiko’s words.
Something that shouldn’t exist?
Immediately, he felt his eyes draw towards this individual that even the self-proclaimed ‘greatest wizard in the world’ was threatened by, and couldn’t help but smile a shit-eating grin. A seaweed headed bitch that pretended to be just as faux-elegant as Chikage with that inane indoor parasol usage? And now the two of them were going at it like cats in the heat, tossing thinly veiled threats at each other. Now this was some nice entertainment! He almost wanted to butt in, to see if ‘Shubby’ was capable of perma-kill as well, but ultimately, he didn’t want to interrupt her engagement with Chikage. It was nice to see the normally unflappable Youkai Junction boss under some stress, after all.
Walking up to the board and scanning through the missions available, Rui-Ling scratched his chin at the options. There was the ‘Efreet’, who apparently was already present, so it was definitely a waste of time. Werewolf hunting was his specialty, of course, but if it wasn’t vulnerable to silver, he didn’t want to bother. And detective work? Really? Leave interracial relationships to the pros. That legendary weapon of legendary powers though…how tempting.
Then there was your usual smattering of rogue Chasers, hostage situations, gangs being bothers, ghost ships, and of course a rank SSS mission that Rui-Ling didn’t want to do, simply because even he’d get bored of dying thousands of times after a while.
He scratched his chin again, mulling over his options, before finally shrugging. As an immortal, it was his duty to guide the younger whippersnappers and prevent them from pulling off stupid shit, after all. If the orcs and elves get into a fight, they’d probably cause trouble to everyone else and drown the mission board with low-rank requests. Guess I’ll pick up after their trash, he thought glumly, before tearing off the paper, folding it into a paper airplane, and tossing it towards the vampire maid.
“I’ll take the…”
It was then that Rui-Ling saw the smart, rational, blue-haired eyepatch kid state his interest in the ghost ship mission. Right, that was one of the few Chasers who were actually reasonable! Such an opportunity most definitely shouldn't be wasted!
“Nevermind that,” he corrected, picking up the sloppily tossed mission-airplane and pinning it back onto the board. “Don’t know your name, but hey, I’m Rui-Ling,” he said, walking up by the taller man, “Mind if I join in on that mission? If it’s ghosts, I’m pretty good at handling them.”
After all, grabbing the intangible was what his silver arm did.
