"Yes why-?" Cristina spoke as her attention suddenly turned to the changing void, she could feel her own control slipping away as meteors began falling. Oh fuck what did she do?!
Panicking she dodged her way out of the falling meteors, her powers going awry as she felt it slipping out of her hands as close calls began happening. Before she could get the chance to breath she felt a presence, the Boar charging to her as she raises her sword. She had no time to dodge which means she had no choice but to face it head on.
Using the last of her control she manifested Starflames between her and the boar launching it at her in a desperate bid to halt or even slow her down.
"Don't worry, I'll be sure to add my boluses when no one is looking. I usually eat this separate to my drink as a snack but want to change things up." Henry answered to Keith as he took another sip, come to think of it cheese is a really good compliment to a lot of things.
"This is actually a hobby, like baking I guess? Richard replied to Sunny who seems to be having a conversation about names, how ironic that the most normal sounding name is the one that's actually fake. Granted the boss knows about his true name but it is still a funny thing to think about.
"My actual talent is something more on the physical side." Richard revealed with a smile. "I'm a bodyguard and a good fighter in a spear. My clients always say that thinking is not my strong suit but you guys will safe under my watch." he spoke as he revealed his pen, those who watched a certain book or movie would know what exactly his pen could do.
"I still could make observations if needed but yes, I'll be mostly following your leads."
After a minute the door for the cafe will open once again, revealing a young man whose hair seems like it just recently get liberated. His casual clothing make it seem like that he is a patron of the establishment even though he only entered the place once. That being said, he might eventually turn one considering that he would be working for the agency and be visit this place more frequently.
The idea of him working on what is basically a vacation might cause a few raised eyebrows but he finds going idle for months to be impossible and to be honest, he cannot really afford to let his skills rust when he returns. He is already pushing things with this stunt, a don't want to go that far.
""Sure, please make the water extra hot." he requested as he took a small case in his box shaking it before revealing the contents, revealing a bunch of small spheres slightly larger than a thumb. It looked like some sort of eastern medicine but it also seemed to look like a candy.
He dumped the a sphere into his coffee letting it be dissolved by the hot water before stirring. Chunks of the bolus would float as they continue to break apart turning the coffee into some sort of concoction. He would sip on this concoction eyes widening as he tried to process the taste.
"That is definitely the cheese weirdly good enough. " he spoke as he looked at the young and old who appears to going to be his coworkers.
"Name's Henry Norton, do any of you want to try your luck. One of these boluses have ghost pepper as a flavor." he greeted to the two, shaking his case.

-A collapsible pen that is gifted to Richard two years ago. Can transform into a spear with a mental command, said weapon is more durable than the wooden material suggest. Can also be recalled to his hand.
Bolus Making Kit
-A set of tools for making bonuses due to lack of formal skill and proper ingredients, his creations are nothing more than glorified energy drinks or concentrated adrenaline.
Bolus Recipe Book
-A worn down book that is gifted to Richard by one of his charge before they parted ways. It contains a list of basic recipes for aspiring bolus makers combined with various handwritten notes and warnings that is personally directed to Richard. The only reason Richard hasn't poisoned himself.
Boluses
-Medicine in the shape of a small sphere that grants small effects to the consumer. Richard consistently keeps boluses that heal the body or stabilize the mind. Their effects go weaker the more it is used.

Greetings Mr. Fidano, if you are reading this letter then I would like to extend my gratitude for considering my application.
I would first want to preface that I kept and will be keeping a lot of things from you, coming from being an inactive member of Zafu Association. Admittedly there is an almost guarantee that I will eventually go back but I can promise that it won't put you or anybody in the agency in any form of danger unless something went truly wrong.
If you are still considering hiring me after that risk then I would list my notable skills here.
I'm a proficient spearwielder and have some experience in both actual combat and being a bodyguard. This is my most reliable skill that I would be of most use to the agency. I also have my own share of blood but I don't want to talk about it.
I have some level of familiarity with the criminal underground, especially with the Zafu Association.
While I'm not on the level of even a proper apprentice, I could make some boluses with local materials. Due to their haphazard nature, it is not more effective than concentrated energy drinks or cigarettes. I can assure its safety and non-addictive properties when used responsibly though.
I’m looking forward to your positive response.
Sincerely, Richard Norton
Richard is one of the few people who is simply born with the “proper way of breathing and walking”. This led to him being adopted by the Ryouchi family at the young age of five with the purpose of him being trained as a bodyguard. He is noted to be a skilled spearman and hand to hand fighter although not the best among the potential heirs. Notably he is eating boluses in a manner similar to how smokers inhale their cigarettes. He justifies it as a less harmful alternative to drinking.
As a fighter, he is basically a character from a beat 'em up game capable of taking blows and fighting multiple enemies for long periods of time. He could also evade bullets by feeling out its trajectory although it was nearly impossible for him to dodge sustained fire.
When asked about the Zafu Association, he likened it to a mix of yakuza and a sitcom with a splash of casual violence and sometimes murder and wishes it would stay that way.
He notes that he felt a bit detached to everything even with his adoptive family and it scares him a little.

After a while and a lot of patience, the group finally reached their destination. A land that is normally concealed in the eyes of the humans but today is an exception. A very special exception that she didn’t really want to happen.
The group is now in front of a foreign sky and sights impossible to behold through human means after all the Temen-ni-Guru, the largest repository of knowledge of her kind is far beyond the bounds of time and space. A marvel only made through the countless Blood Demon Arts and rituals that began before she was even born.
“We’re finally here, don’t stray from your lane, don’t draw that blade of yours and don’t touch anything without permission.” Reiha spoke glaring at Guen as she waited for the door to open. “Let’s get this over with.”
As if waiting for a cue the enormous doors slowly opened revealing a red skinned ogre donning a business suit waiting for them.
“I smell a human. A human with a scent of my kind. A slayer of high renown.” Taguro spoke as she glared at Guen in a tone that conveys reality and concealed hate. “I can also smell the stench of other humans. Your guest, Yuwaku-sama?” he asked as he held his giant metal club.
“Indeed Taguro-san, we are here under the orders of Michikatsu-sama.” Reiha answered with a calm tone, she had visited the place occasionally and had made some form of rapport with the library's sole guard and director.
“A slayer as a guest, of Michikatsu-sama no less!? The world had really gone mad.” Taguro spoke as he moved aside.
“Very well, I’ll leave you all to your task. And slayer you better not try anything funny or you’ll be killed if the demon in the room hasn't already.”
Cristina's cough would be heard from the room as she tried to used her to keep herself from inhaling the floating dust. An ambush at this moment? How? Why? She stared at the newcomer before recomposing herself. The concern to other people was new but welcome, if it is someone she previously encountered she would be leaping over fire and attacks by now.
She would then look at Callie at around the five limit mark, it should be enough for everyone to vacate the building.
"We have this." Cristina spoke as the Mirage Space emerged and trapped the Boar with her and her allies.
Thespian smiled as her ploy fall hook line and sinker, she rarely gets the chance to use this talent for a good cause. So she is glad that it went well, it is a shame that it is the extent of her ploy.
She quietly stepped away letting Baron to start the fight against the shadows, behind her was a furnace turned into a throne and a kitsune who sitting with arrogance on her face. Thespian would then pointed her right arm to the charging Orthus.
"Sukunda!" she ordered as disorienting orb hits the goliath, hopefully give the opening the group needs for a quick kill.
