Darius moved forward, continuing to try and stay at a relatively safe distance from the enemy combatants, not really sure if he should push forward or not much further.

[Pyon Pyon Kyuu!~]

"Oh Belros! Hold on I've got an idea." Emilee walks up to Belros, and removes the cutlass from his hand. She then reaches into his belt and places one of his poison knives on his hand and then hands back the cutlass. To top it off, she heals! "There. I think they might attack you from far away so you should have your knives out. That's just my intuition though." 

 

Move to M18, tradehax knives, heal Belros.

Move to K11.

The sudden application of the the vulnerary startled Rayne. "AH!!! Oh, that's just you Clarisse... " Rayne wasn't aware how hurt she was after that blast from the dark magic an she certainly appricated that Clarisse was patching her up though... "Clarisse... not so roooough. That hurts! Be gentler!" she exclaimed.

With the adjustments though she was definitely starting to feel much better. "Ooooooh... aaaah... oh ye that's good. Right there... RlGHT THERE! Get me good~" Rayne said all the while Clarisse was applying the salve.

"It seems he's found strong friends. But does he have the resolve to fight with them no matter the foe..." the man mutters before looking to the nearby bandit. "Tell one of the others to bring Belros and some of his friends to me. I wish to test his mettle here and now," he states firmly.

 

"Very well boss."

"So you are the ones who fight against us now hmm? No matter, I didn't come here for idle chatter. Belros! The boss wishes to see you and your allies. I will take you to him...provided you are able to face him that is," the shaman mutters, crossing his arms in front of him.

[Ally Phase]

 

"Do you expect me to believe that you aren't just leading Belros into a trap?" Madante asks the shaman, who shows no signs of retaliation.

 

"Not particularly, though it doesn't matter much to me one way or the other. I simply came to deliver a message from the boss. What you decide on from here is entirely up to you. Nothing's stopping you from striking me down right here and now for example," the shaman chuckles.

 

"Please, I'm not that bloodthirsty. Though if I do find that Belros ends up in an ambush, I hope you'll have no qualms with me entering the fray?"

 

"None at all," the shaman replies.

[Sutoratosu]

"You fucks can't even be bothered trying to hide a trap, can you?" she snaps at the Shaman with a nice bit of venom, before turning to belros

"Well, what are you going to do? If by some miracle your boss isn't the scumbag I think he is and he still has some honor like you hope, maybe what you said earlier isn't so far fetched. Or maybe he just wants to see the look on your face one last time before he personally ends you. If you're really serious about trying to talk through this, at the very least don't go over there alone."

[Zetaark]

The shaman looks at Cadence and chuckles a bit before shrugging. "Even if I did come here trying my best to prove that this wasn't a trap, you still wouldn't believe me. Though thinking on it, that might make you all even more suspicious of me than just walking over here and telling you. Point is, I did my job of relaying my message. What happens next is really up to you all. Nothing else to it."

[Aurorix]

Belros thinks about his former comrade's offer. The thought of facing Randel once more sends chills down his spine. Though, it's his fault that most of the bad things has happened with everyone recently. It's about time he did something to stop this himself. Besides, now is a good a time as any to try and convince them to stop. Belros steps out from the sover of the trees, 

 

"Alright then, fine, I'll go. However, under one condition, that being I'm allow to bring someone with me of my choosing to accompany me. That alright with you and the boss?" The spy spoke directly towards the shaman in-front of him.

[Zetaark]

"Of course it is. The guy even asked you to bring someone, and I'm certainly not going to stop you. Pick whoever you wish, and I'll make sure you and whoever they are meet with the boss with no interruptions. Good enough for you?" the shaman replies.

[Anstane]

 

"Graah!" Darius staggered back before falling to one knee from the strength of the bandit's thrown axe, leaving him bloodied and horribly wounded. After counter-attacking instinctively, he looked over his body and the feelings of pain fully washed over him.

 

His breathing intensified.

 

The look on his eyes became one of raw anger.

 

"Pain...rrgh...you...prepare to suffer...as I have...only infinitely worse." the shaman hissed out at the bandit, a blood-red glint in his eyes now as he took out his Nosferatu tome and opened it's pages, having stood up. Despite the blood freely flowing, he was in a wrathful haze now, ready to destroy the fool that damn near struck him down.

 

Equip Nosferatu, Wrath-attack Bandit 4.

"Alright then. Now..." Belros begins to look around nearby him to decide who to bring. He couldn't bring Emilee, she can barely whack people with that staff of hers let alone take on an ambush. Plus, if anything happened to her he wouldn't be able to fulfill his promise. Next Selia, there is no way he would bring a newcomer on something so dangerous. Cadence is definitely a good candidate, she's proven to have the fangs of a lion multiple times. However, there was one person he knows could hold his own for at least a little bit and that was through his own experience fighting him,

 

"Alright, Madante, how's about me and you go pay Randel a visit?" The spy says looking towards Madante punching his right fist into his left palm.

As the bloodied shaman opened his tome and cast his spell, his wrathful side took over with a blood-red glint. Out of the tome, a barrage of dark tendrils slammed into the bandit, embedding themselves into his body. The brigand would feel a bit of pain for a moment...before excruciating agony overwhelmed him, so quickly and fiercely that he didn't even get a chance to scream. Blood-red energy and fluids started leaking from his body: The penetrated spots, his mouth, even his eyes bled. All of said energy and blood, siphoned away by the shaman's magic, coalescing into a flow of misty energy that flowed into Darius' form, mending his wounds and revitalizing his body.

 

A few moments later, it was over. The dark magic pulled back into the tome as the corpse of the bandit fell to the ground, completely dessicated, drained of all blood and other life-sustaining energies and liquids while Darius' own body was rejuvenated. Such a scene would definitely leave any other enemies wary of facing the shaman's wrath.

 

As the spell ended, the blood-red glint in Darius' eyes faded as he was no longer in such a wrathful state.

"I'd be honored Belros. Is that alright with you?" Madante directs his question towards the shaman, who simply shrugs.

 

"Perfectly fine by me. Follow the road to the building in back, the grand hall. You'll find the boss there, ready and waiting. The rest is then up to you," the shaman replies in an uncaring voice.

"Wait, what!? Belros, of all the people you can choose-"

"Cadence..."

"rrrrrrrr.... fine." She sighed, probably for the best that Mara'd stopped her there. Still though, from most of what she'd seen thus far, well.... nothing personal against the captain, but there'd been many times where it had seemed like he was even more useless than her, on the battlefield. He and Helena just seemed so... delayed in their actions for some reason, never could figure out why they always hesitated so much. Buuuut....

"Fine.... if it's really the captain you want beside you... just remember what I said, alright?" Then turning to the shaman

"And you. If it turns out this really was a trap the whole time, that special tome of yours won't save you from me. I'll take that pock marked mug of yours and carve you a nice new smile; that will be just the beginning. Now take them go see your damn boss, before I get a lot less civil."

 

k-18, Hide in the trees, glare menacingly at the shaman 

[Aurorix]

"Oh yea, one more thing before we head out." Belros say to Madante before taking out his lockpick and yelling out towards the wind,  "Hey, Voy Con, I'd like to make swap. This lockpick for some medicine."

 

Move to K14, go into the convoy and swap the lockpick for the (3/3) Vulnerary 

[Zetaark]

"Less civil? You mean up till now was you being civil?" the shaman asks in a confused tone before looking at Belros. "You've really gotten yourself mixed in with a...colorful bunch haven't you?" he asks in a tone that almost sounds concerned before shaking his head. "Regardless, once you are all set, I shall see that you two meet with the boss."

 

---------------------------------

"Very well," the man crones, appearing out of nowhere before taking the lockpicks and handing Belros the vulnerary before disappearing into the trees.
