After getting confirmation about Vanaheims safety from Aaroniero you return to your guests whom you've left at the outskirts just in case.
When you arrive the four hollows you invited are marveling on the vegetation.
"Everything alright?"
Harribel asks once she notices you.
You reply to her after a sigh of relief.
"Yes thankfully.
It looks like I was getting worked up over nothing."
You turn your attention to Lan who looks quite bored already.
"I'll take over from here."
She nods and then walks off.
You clap your hands together and speak up.
"So, are you ready to take a look at the actual place?"
As you ask the question you look over the four of them to see Apacci sniffing the leaves.
"Also, please refrain from harming the trees.
They are invaluable."
She gives you an angry look.
"Do you think I'm an actual deer or something?!
Idiot..."
"I have a girl who might not be an actual dog but I'm willing to bet that if you threw a ball in her presence she'd go and bring it back."
They all give you a confused look.
"Oh, but before we go..."
You speak up and then extend your arm forward.
The Resurrección ends and whatever parts of your body got transformed now return to their regular state.
Basilisco reforms in your hand and then you put it back in its holster.
"There, people might get worried if I stayed like that."
You look over to the net you created in order to transport Harribel and her crew.
At least your suspicions got confirmed, the mucus won't just disappear if you reseal your power.
Harribel notices this and looks at you.
"So that substance is your power?"
"It is."
"Ugh how disgusting."
Sung-Sun criticizes you.
You decided to shrug it off.
"I lived for over ten years drenched in the stuff, I almost feel naked without it.
But it's very useful in its own ways."
You signal to the three of them.
"Now, please follow me."
You lead them deep into the forest.
German Hollow Quest 23
Along the way you show them the most important features of the settlement such as the fruit bearing plants, the river Elivagar which courses through the forest nurturing the plants and the houses which the settlers built for themselves up in the trees.
"I still can't believe this is real."
Mila Rose marvels at the blue forest.
"Yeah, but I should have guessed.
Almost everyone here is male."
That caught your attention.
"I'm not going to argue that but why's that a problem?
It's true that there aren't many women around but what we have don't seem to have a problem living here."
Harribel looks at you.
"Maybe but hollows are often aggressive and savage, males even more so.
Don't you have problems with violence?"
"There's no real established law around other than us Arrancars stepping on those that start any trouble.
People mostly govern themselves and they even created several forms of "entertainment" for themselves.
The most popular of these is the fighting pit which is packed almost every day, it really helps relieve some tension.
Combine these with an abundant food source and people don't have many reasons to cause problems."
As you finish you can see the four hollows looking around and watching the denizens going about their business, they in turn also get a few odd looks but most people don't pay too much attention to them.
"How many people are here?"
Harribel asks.
"About a hundred.
It's hard to keep count of them."
"And what about your Arrancar friends?
I can't see them."
Mila Rose asks.
You shrug.
"They are probably doing their chores.
Most people help out with the maintenance of the village."
Just as you finish you hear a familiar voice calling out for you.
"Kaizar!"
You turn around and see Alex running towards you.
She screeches to a halt right next to you as she looks over the four Menos.
"You made some new friends?"
You introduce them to each other.
The four female hollows look over Alex and give you a quizzical look.
"She's an Arrancar?
But she's so young."
Harribel wonders.
But Alex is not amused by this.
"So?
Arrancars aren't uncommon here."
She says with an annoyed look on her face.
"But wait, aren't you supposed to be a Vasto?
The only oddity around here is you!"
She asks after looking over Harribel.
She blinks a few times in surprise.
"Well, yes I am.
But..."
"But what?"
"How do you know I am one?"
She blows some raspberries as she answers.
"That's easy.
You look almost exactly like Kaizar did when he was one."
The four hollows all shift their eyes onto you.
"He was?"
You scratch the back of your head.
"Well, only for a short while."
There's an awkward pause in the conversation now.
What do you do?
>"So are you interested in moving in or not?"
>"Yeah I'll just leave you alone so you can make your decision."
>"If you are still unconvinced then join us for lunch."
>Other? (write-in)
>>"If you are still unconvinced then join us for lunch."
But the decision is still yours. Though once Aizen learns of you you might not have many places to go to get away from him.
Seconding, however, we should convince them to join the army, we have a quota to fulfill, and we need to start getting the structure built for our new Wermacht.
>>"If you are still unconvinced then join us for lunch."
>>"If you are still unconvinced then join us for lunch."
Maybe try and bond with harribel over what we felt when we changed to vasto? I assume that's something only other vastos would get, as it were. I doubt Alex/Pesci/Nel are suited to stuff like that, and Yata is focused on his science
>writing
"Anyhow, this is pretty much everything."
The three Adjuchas look at Harribel expectantly.
"Whatever you decide we'll follow Mistress."
Sung-Sun says.
She closes her eyes.
"I don't know.
I can't make a decision so suddenly."
"Well nobody is rushing you.
You already know where we are, so feel free to come by if you do decide.
But before you leave I'd like to invite all of you for lunch.
It's the least we can do."
"I'd rather not be a burden.
But tha-"
In that moment Alex grabs her by the hand and begins tugging her.
"Come on!
It'll be fun.
Besides we have like a hundred freeloaders already we'll barely notice you!"
"B-but..."
"No excuses!
You are coming and that's it!"
"Lady Harribel!"
Appaci shouts to her but Alex grabs her leg as well and begins pulling her in the direction of the dining area.
"You are also coming!
It'll be so fun having more girls around!"
They are all looking at you nervously.
"D-do something about her you bastard!"
Apacci orders you to act but you simply shrug.
"Once she makes her mind up not even I can stop her."
"Damn straight!"
You make a mental note to thank Alex for helping you while you turn away from the embarrassed group and suppress your laughter.
She leads all of you and then sits the three Adjuchas plus Harribel down while she goes to get the food.
In the meantime you introduce them to Pesci who is already busy with cooking and to Yata who showed up earlier than usual.
They are all embarrassed as hell.
Once the food is served Alex sits down between the three beasts and pesters them for the whole duration of lunch while at the same time acts as a peacekeeper between them, quickly shutting down any arguments they might have.
In the meantime you see Harribel who has moved far away from the group and is now keeping to herself.
You decide to go up to her just so there aren't two people eating alone at the same time.
"Do you mind if I sit down?"
"It's your place, if anything I should be asking for permission to sit here."
You put your plate down and sit at the opposite end of the table.
"Don't be like that, you are guests here."
She looks down.
"Forgive me.
I'm just not used to such hospitality."
She then turns to look at her friends once more.
"They are really enjoying themselves."
You raise an eyebrow at that.
"They look more annoyed to me."
She chuckles at that.
"They enjoy being annoyed.
You might not be able to tell but those three would risk their lives for each other.
And it looks like they enjoy having a little sister figure as well."
You smile a little.
"You care about them."
"I do.
But you are no different."
Afterward you quietly observe those four messing around.
But eventually Harribel looks at you.
"Is it true?
That you were a Vasto Lorde before becoming an Arrancar?"
"Yes.
Why?"
"How did you... change?"
You take a deep breath as you try to recall those exact moments.
"It happened suddenly.
I'd say it happened when I was at my lowest, when I stopped caring about the larger problems of the world.
I remember my exact train of thought: Why care anymore?"
Her eyes waver as she looks around the place while trying to avoid eyecontact.
You sigh heavily.
"Shit...
I was hoping I was just some special case..."
You say to her.
"Ironic, isn't it?
The only way to achieve something so coveted is to not want it."
"And even then not everyone can transcend to that level."
She nods.
"I've seen others give up like that without changing."
Neither of you wants to look at the other after that.
The awkward silence is getting worse every second.
You look at your plate desperately looking for something to talk about.
"So...
How's the food?"
"It's quite good."
She says before she takes another modest bite.
"How did you find these things?"
"It popped out of the ground where I slept."
"You're joking."
"I wish I was.
Afterwards we made several of the plants and now you see the result of that when you look around."
"It's impressive."
"It can be yours as well."
"You'll have to forgive me if I don't believe it's that simple."
"But why?"
"Because everything has a price.
I don't trust anyone who comes offering things for free."
You look down once more.
Do you:
>Not tell her anything.
>Tell her that the only one paying that price is you.
>Tell her the whole thing, Aizen and Arrancars included.
>Other? (write-in)
>Tell her the whole thing, Aizen and Arrancars included.
>>Tell her the whole thing, Aizen and Arrancars included.
>Tell her the whole thing, Aizen and Arrancars included.
>Tell her the whole thing, Aizen and Arrancars included.
It's not ideal, and I don't like it at all, but she doesn't have an awful lot of choice in the matter. We're just trying to make it more bearable for everyone involved, sadly.
>Tell her the whole thing, Aizen and Arrancars included.
I wonder if Aizen really is the king of Keikaku, or if he just wings it and has enough charisma for everyone to believe him when he says it was his plan all along?
>Tell her the whole thing, Aizen and Arrancars included.
>Tell her the whole thing, Aizen and Arrancars included
>Tell her the whole thing, Aizen and Arrancars included.
>>Tell her the whole thing, Aizen and Arrancars included.
Don't like or trust him, but it's better than the alternative. This is the carrot, just be happy I got to you first. Otherwise you'd be getting the stick, and that's ended a lot of lives.
>Tell her the whole thing, Aizen and Arrancars included.
It's less about paying the price or not at this point, and more about whether you throw your lot in with someone that genuinely gives a shit. Because she'll almost certainly end up getting recruited in any event.
This reminds me of the guy who convinced his GM to play as a bear.
He maxed out his charisma right off the bat and convinced everyone that he is actually a man.
Aizen might actually be an idiot with stupidly high charisma and bluff skills
>Writing
You grab your plate and slide it aside.
You cross your fingers and look Harribel straight in the eye.
"I'm going to cut the bullshit now.
You are right, there is a price to pay.
But I'm the one who is paying it."
She gives you a serious look, she looks quite intimidating.
"It would not be an exaggeration that I sold my soul to the Devil himself, Aizen Sōsuke.
He is the head of this "operation" and he is the one who "recruited" me."
"What do you mean?"
"He pretty much gave a choice, join him or suffer his wrath.
The most I managed to do is some bargaining, Vanaheim stays but I don't.
I'm pretty much his lapdog and we are all prisoners here, bound to his will."
"And if we stay here then we'll suffer the same fate."
"He promised that the forest will be untouched but I don't trust him.
And since you are a Vasto Lorde he wouldn't rest until he has you under control."
You look at the folks at the other end of the table.
"But I think you could bargain with him to leave them alone but that might be bad as well."
"Why?"
"I didn't lie when I said we are making an army, he wants to create as many Arrancars as he can and when he does the regular hollows will be under them in terms of hierarchy."
"So it's not good either way."
She gives her comrades a concerned look and then blinks.
"But I'm sure if I joined up for their sake they'd still follow me out of solidarity."
"Well...
You don't have to do it immediately.
I'm sure that you'd have time until he comes here in person."
She looks at you with eyes full of anger.
"So you're telling me this was all a trap after all?"
"Trust me, I had no such intentions.
But you must understand the situation that we are in.
When Aizen takes over, and that's a "when" and not an "if", Hueco Mundo will change.
And Aizen is looking for the Vasto Lorde anyway. In a best case scenario you'd be hunted for the rest of your life.
I'd say doing it now is better just so you get over it."
She looks at her friends with a grim expression.
"But if I joined they'd be safe, right?"
"As safe as one can be in war."
She looks at you again.
"You've told me what this Aizen wants.
Now tell me, what do You want?
Are you just his lapdog doing his bidding?"
"No, far from it.
I'm here because of my friends and nothing else.
In fact, I'm glad we can have this talk now and because I was the one that found you.
It was really for the best that I found you and not some of Aizens zealots.
If you join then I'd get some credibility and I could vouch for you, I could actually help you."
"And in return of my servitude we get food and shelter?"
"Of course."
"And what if I refuse?"
"If it was up to me you could leave without any trouble but as you know that's not the case."
In that moment you signal Harribel with one of your fingers.
She looks down at the table as a large drop of slime begins to gather at one of your fingertips.
You begin writing on the table with your mucus while trying your best to write upside down.
When you finish this can be seen under the right lighting:
"I'LL HELP YOU GET OUT"
She looks up.
"How?"
You turn away from everyone and whisper.
"This stuff can hide reiatsu, if I cover you then nobody will notice it when you are gone."
"Is it permanent?"
"No it dissolves after a while but it lasts long enough."
"Why?"
"I won't help my own jailer if I can help it.
Now are you in or not?"
She looks over at her companions and then closes her eyes.
C'mon Sharktits, do the reasonable thing. We need people who will support us when we rebel.
I just want to see happybatman, is that so much to ask for? A Starrk is fine, too.
I enjoy sad clown too user.
Sadclown and Starrk both just wanted friends, right?
I can see a faction being built here.
I'd say Sadclown more wanted a purpose than friends per say.
You and Harribel walk alongside the table after finishing your meal.
The four girls have actually forgotten about themselves and got scared when they saw Harribel arrive.
"M-Mistress Harribel!
We were just-"
"Enjoying yourselves?"
"W-well..."
"I'm glad."
She says with a calming voice.
"I must ask you to forgive me but I've made my decision behind your backs.
I decided to accept Kaizars offer."
"My Lady, you..."
"So don't worry, we won't be leaving anytime soon."
Alex jumps up from her seat and hugs Apacci.
"Awesome!
You guys are staying!"
"D-don't hold me so tightly dumbass!"
When you pack up and Alex takes the Tres Bestias on a tour you are left with Harribel once more.
"I'm sorry about this, Miss Harribel."
"Sorry about what?
This place and the outside are impossible to compare.
And just as you said, serving Aizen is an insignificant price."
"Well in any case I'll have to inform the others about this stuff.
And I'll also see about getting some proper housing for you.
Will four houses suffice, Miss Harribel?"
"Just one large house will be fine."
"Very well, I'll make the arrangements.
In the meantime do as you wish, this is your home as well now."
With that you turn around and walk off.
"Kaizar!"
She calls out to you.
"Yes?"
You face her.
"Harribel will suffice."
You give her a dumb expression.
"O-oh...
Sorry."
You pull your hat over your face before you leave.
When you are far away you exhale and speak to yourself.
"Well, that was awkward."
"Tell me about it."
Dordoni says as he jumps down in from of you and trips once again.
"And just what do you want?"
*cough* *cough*
"Pesci said that he wants to speak with you.
That's pretty much it."
"Noted."
What do you do now?
>Go and inform the Espada of your new recruit.
>Arrange for the construction of Harribels home.
>Go and see what Pesci wants.
>Other? (write-in)
>Arrange for the construction of Harribels home.
>Go and see what Pesci wants.
>>Go and inform the Espada of your new recruit.
>>Arrange for the construction of Harribels home.
>>Go and see what Pesci wants.
But do Pesci first.
>>Arrange for the construction of Harribels home.
>>Go and see what Pesci wants.
>Arrange for the construction of Harribels home.
>Go and see what Pesci wants.
Yay, shark week best week!
>>Arrange for the construction of Harribels home.
>Go and see what Pesci wants.
Seconding
>Arrange for the construction of Harribels home.
>Go and see what Pesci wants.
>Arrange for the construction of Harribels home.
>Go and see what Pesci wants.
Might not want to inform them until we advise her to rip off her own mask, and not to take the shortcut. because shortcuts are always super-shady
>Writing.
Just a thought, but we should have our local mad scientist examine the shinigami sword. Hopefully by comparing it to ours he can figure out some useful things that can help us and those loyal to us.
You decided to talk with Pesci but on your way you found a bunch of guys lazing around and decided to give them an order to build a house for the new inhabitants.
When you arrive you can see your favourite pig taking a leisurely nap on his favorite patch of grass.
"Enjoying yourself?"
"Oh, hi Boss."
You lay down next to him and put your arms behind your head.
"So, I hear you were looking for me."
"Yeah, we don't talk much these days."
"Sorry about that, I'm busy."
"I know, I know.
You don't have to tell me that."
"So what did you want?"
"Asher was asking for you..."
"What?!"
"Yeah, Alex told me that something was wrong, apparently it's serious."
"That damned scatterbrain."
"I saw her take off and assumed she forgot about the whole thing."
"Do you know what it's about?
He never asked me for help before."
"Nope and I doubt Alex knows, all she said over and over again how he simply asked for you to go and meet him."
"Shit! SHIT!"
"What's wrong?"
"I still have a lot of stuff to do and sneaking out with all the Espada around will be troublesome."
"Don't hate me, I'm just the messenger."
You calm yourself down a bit and sit up.
"I know, thanks.
You know what? We'll have a night of drinking some day.
Just you and me."
"Fine by me."
Decide:
>Do your business in Hueco Mundo
>Go and meet Asher
>>Go and meet Asher
>Go and meet Asher
We're the fucking Segunda, we can do what we want.
>Go and meet Asher
>Go and meet Asher
"Tell them that I went off to train for a bit in private. I wasn't very happy with my performance against that Shinigami we ran into."
>"Don't hate me, I'm just the messenger."
>then do your job, i have a message for the espada. i recruited another Vasto Lorde.
this is a good idea
>>Go and meet Asher
Segunda privilege.
>>Go and meet Asher
use the excuse about Frankly, we should get into the habit of occasionally going off to train in private or with a few friends we trust so that when we actually need to be sneaky we have a habit of doing that so people don't think its suspicious.
>Go and meet Asher
We found a Vasto Lorde, we can damn well do as we please for a moment, plus we can hide ourselves, no one will ever know.
For that matter we might be "worried" that Harribel will take our spot.
>Go and meets Asher
And tell Nel or one of the others that we're visiting him
can someone clear something up for me, because I think I'm confused. Does Aizen's method of making arrancar make them completely loyal to him, or am I remembering that incorrectly.
Pretty sure he just uses his sword for that.
>Writing
Not that i know of. He is charismatic, ridiculously powerful and knows a legendary method to power up a Hollow and at the same time saves them from an eternity of hunger. That suffices for most. With the oddballs he tends to go with individual solutions (companions for Starrk, a purpose for Nell).
"Pesci, can you do me a favor?"
"Yeah?"
"Tell the other Espada that I can't be bothered to show off.
If they give you any trouble than remind them that I just did more of their jobs than they ever did."
"And what do I tell them if they ask where you are?"
"I don't know, tell them I'm off training somewhere.
Just make up something."
"Right."
After leaving Pesci and finding a secluded area you open the Garganta.
It doesn't take you too long to reach the living world and you step through the gateway.
The church still looks the same as always but you don't care about that and instead open the front door.
When you step in you can see the people look at the door confused as to why it opened suddenly.
You can see Asher standing behind a pedestal, giving a sermon.
His eyes practically light up when he sees you but he quickly manages to regain his composure.
He finishes the sermon while you watch standing in a corner.
After wrapping up the whole thing the elderly priest comes in and congratulates him for doing a good job.
He thanks him and then excuses him before going off for a walk into the graveyard.
You follow him until he reaches an unmarked grave and begins speaking.
"Finally caved in?"
"More like I achieved what I wanted."
You turn around and look at him.
"You were good up there.
I particularly enjoyed the part where God didn't exist."
He chuckles a little.
"Yeah, I tried my best. The old man thinks I did well.
Do you think he noticed me struggling with my laughter?"
"Nah.
So, what's up?
What's with the cryptic invite?"
"I need your help."
"I figured as much.
But about what?
You remember I'm dead, right?"
He looks at you with a concerned face.
"I need you to heal someone."
Oh fuck are we going to one of those christian tv healing things where there the priest beats the shit outta someone and cures their polio?
>I need you to heal someone
Oh shieeet, this is a no-win situation for us right here. Either we're going to fuck ourselves over for Asher, or somebody's going to be disappointed, I'm calling it now.
Oh shit is his bro ok?
"First, no one will or can know, if they find out, more trouble then ever, secound, you have powers, use them, third, blah blah mortal philosophical shite, fourth, where is he? I want tomake this quick.
You look at him confused beyond words.
"Have you lost your mind Asher?
Heal someone?
You can't be serious."
"You don't understand.
You are this persons last hope."
He begins walking around the various graves.
"A woman approached me and begged me to help her sick son.
I told her that I'm no doctor but she wouldn't listen.
Her family is deeply religious and don't believe in medicine.
And normally I wouldn't give a damn but I know the boy.
He's an honest to God person with the purest heart I've seen in a long time.
He has good grades in school and has a bright future ahead of him, if he lives that is."
You grab the bridge of your nose and sigh.
"My boy, I'm not a saint.
I don't go around healing the ailments of everyone in the world for good reasons.
You just have to look at yourself, I exposed you to the spirit realm and look what happened.
Hollows attack you every waking moment of your life, do you really want to expose others to that stuff?
Let them live in blissful ignorance.
Besides, couldn't you heal him with your fullbring?"
"I tried and it's not a simple thing I can fix with Anguis.
The boys condition is far worse than I initially thought.
And what's that talk about not being a saint?
You saved my life back in Auschwitz."
"That was different."
"Why?"
"I was depressed and you annoyed me with your bawling."
You say in a half sarcastic tone.
That got a laugh out of him.
"Look at me Kaizar.
I'm a jewish man working as a catholic priest while being an atheist.
Do you know why I choose this occupation?
Because I thought I could help people or at least offer them some relief.
And then there are these religious nutjobs about to kill their own son.
And I'm not going to stand for that."
"So you'd rather perform a "miracle"?"
"I don't want to blow things out of proportion but yes.
Besides a kid getting magically healed would pale in comparison to a nazi saving a jewish boys life, wouldn't you think?"
Ah shit, he knows.
well, we ARE wearing clothes that are similar to a nazi uniform.
I guess I'd hoped he'd be a bit dimmer.
He's a jew, of course he would hold being a nazi over our head.
6 GORILLION
Shit, didn't realize that.
You facepalm yourself.
"Did Alex tell you?"
"I figured it out on my own.
Remeber I'm not my brother, I'm not so ignorant.
Besides in that getup you'd have a hard time convincing me you weren't."
"Since when?"
"For a few years now.
I always had that nagging feeling in the back of my head and the more I thought about it the more sense it made.
I didn't like it at first but over time I got over it. Why would I be angry at a guy who is already dead?"
Now he managed to make you laugh.
"So you told Alex?
Who knows beside her?"
He asks.
"A guy you don't know. He also figured it out on his own.
I told Alex only because I didn't want any secrets to be between us.
It didn't feel right keeping things from my daughter."
"Makes sense.
So, will you help me?
I promise this is the first and last time I ask this.
I just can't watch a life being wasted like that."
"And what if word gets out?"
"I'll make shit up and hope for the best.
You'd be amazed how easy it is to prove that nothing supernatural happened at the place of a supposed "miracle"."
Do you help him?
>Yes
>No
>Other? (write-in)
yes
>Yes
>>Yes
>Yes
>yes
>It didn't feel right keeping things from my daughter."
Wait, what?
That's Kaizar speaking.
>Other? (write-in)
I'm leaning towards Yes but we really don't get anything out of it. I wonder how human world seeds would grow in (not so grey) Mexico though.
We kinda sorta adopted Alex, possibly to fill the void left by our lost wife/child.
>>Yes
>But he to promise to train the kid and look after him.
>Also he can't tell anyone what we did.
>It didn't feel right keeping things from my daughter.
Was that a Freudian slip orrrrrr...?
>"A guy you don't know. He also figured it out on his own.
Wait whoa, wut?
you miss read, is Kaisar saying that.
Yata
Yata figured it out.
Oh right. My bad.
>Yes
Its so sad that due to knowing how Harribel went Vasto, with Asher's help and earth's psychology books we could have went further
>Writing
Meta, and we had only the barest suspicion IC we could. Furthermore it'd likely result in us or our freinds dying.
>yes
Does this mean jesus became a hollow with healing goo?
Seems more like Judas's gig due to the regrets he had at the end of his life.
I wonder if sadbat is actually Judas. Can't say why this thought just popped into my head but his eternal sorrow and desire for a higher purpose kind of fits.
Well fuck fair enough actually.
You scratch the back of your head and try to figure out how to approach this but you can't come up with anything.
"You know what?
Fine but I have a few conditions."
"What is it?
Name it!"
"I'll do this only once!
You have to make sure news don't get out AND you take responsibility in case the child becomes a fullbringer!
You got that?"
"Absolutely!"
He then hugs you.
"Thank you!"
You return the hug with one hand and then push him away.
"Let's get this over with as fast as possible."
"Right, I already prepared things.
Wait here until I get it then we can go."
He enters his quarters in a hurry and when he comes out he has a bag with him.
"What's in it?"
You ask.
"Just some things to fool them a bible a purple scarf I bought not too long ago and a canteen filled with tap water."
"And you are going to pretend doing an exorcism?"
"Pretty much."
He then leads you to a car and signals for you to get in.
You feel anxious.
"What's wrong?"
"I..
I'll just follow you on foot if that's okay with you."
"S-sure."
He then proceeds to drive beyond the edge of the village and into the wilderness.
You follow him in the air via Sonído.
When he arrives you land beside the car.
As you look at the worn down house in the middle of nowhere you speak to Asher.
"You even learned to drive?"
"It was the most fun thing besides raiding the sacramental wine."
He then proceeds to put on the purple scarf and takes out the bible he also made sure his cross is visible.
"Okay, here goes nothing."
When he knocks on the door and they let him in the people inside practically bend over before the priest.
They lead him into the room of the young boy who seems to be much older than Asher was in Auschwitz, you'd guess around fifteen years old.
He then asks everyone in the room to leave him alone with the young boy.
What could go wrong, right guys?
>inb4 the kid sees us and thinks we were the demon possessing him
>We're the reason why people think Demons posses children.
Hehehe I hope that doesn't happen. And we don't look like a demon anymore.
Asher leans in close and begins to whisper.
"Okay, the coast is clear.
You can do it now."
You take a quick look at the boy who seems to be in a lot of pain.
His skin is covered in rashes and he is coughing almost constantly.
"Fuck me Asher, what did you get me into?"
He keeps whispering.
"What's wrong?"
"You don't know what this is?"
"Of course not!
What do you think I am?"
You take a closer look at the boys mouth as he coughs.
"Yeap.
This is AIDS."
"AIDS?!
That's sexually transmitted isn't it?"
"Yeah, guess the boy got curious and paid the price."
"Enough about that!
Can you fix him or not?"
"I can only try."
With that he addresses the boy.
"Jeremiah, close your eyes.
I'll help you now."
He follows his orders and Asher begins speaking gibberish in Latin while the bible is open in his hand.
You took a quick look at it and see that the whole thing is in english.
After that you draw your sword.
"What are you doing?!"
He stops chanting for a moment and whispers to you.
"I need this.
Now: Mend and Maim, Basilisco!"
You quickly transform while paying attention to not release your reiatsu violently.
After you are done you reach out and slime begins to pour outward from your palm.
It slowly envelops the boy completely.
"Isn't that a bit too much?"
"Against this?
I'm worried it might be too little."
The mucus envelops the boy completely and begins to seep into him.
Through every orifice it invades his body and begins to cleanse the child.
You are trying your damnedest to focus as much reiatsu into it as possible but all that reiatsu is too hard to control.
"What's wrong Kaizar?"
"Can't you see it?
His body can't handle the stress.
My reiatsu is simply too much."
"Please you must keep going!"
