The Witch's Child (Re:zero)

The Child Maniac

Currently, three people sat around a campfire conversing with eachother, for anyone around them that could see them, i'd be obvious that they've known eachother for a long time.

It was currently the middle of the night and around the trio were around 100 men carrying supplies or doing other tasks that may need to be completed. They were making a camp around the edge of the Mathers domain to try and smuggle certain illegal supplies from Vollachia into the Mathers domain.

Of course, just the fact that they were illegal, doesn't mean that it'll stop them. Business is business after all.

There weren't many buyers in the domain owned by the Mathers family, but those that were there paid more on average for the supplies than other buyers.

Around the campfire, three men were sitting around the campfire. One of them was a rather young brown haired guy who was of average height and had his hair tied in a ponytail. His name was Robert.

The second person was a man with a bulky appearance, he was way above average and had arms almost the size of logs. He was bald and had a scar across his cheek. Not the kind of person you'd want to mess with. His name was Richard.

The third person was tall but somewhat skinny. He had neither long or short hair and it was somewhat messy. He seemed to be around 30 to 40 years old. His name was Arvid.

The trio around the campfire were currently discussing on how to properly smuggle the supplies into the domain.

Robert: I don't see the issue here, there shouldn't be much trouble getting through the Mathers Domain, right?

Arvid: You can't just smuggle supplies in without a proper plan you dumbass.

Seemingly, the duo were currently in an agrument as to how they should proceed.

Robert: Oh, come on! It's the Mathers territory! That damn mage is properly too busy trying to teach that half-devil on how to run a nation!

Clearly, the young man was starting to lose patience as he was trying to convince Arvid that they could easily handle things.

Arvid: You do realize that the Mathers Domain is one of the "safer" places in Lugunica, right? There has to be a reason that it's like that.

Robert: Oh please, it's probably just because people are scared because of that damn half-devil! You'll see how easy it actually is to do this.

Arvid put his head in his hands as he was starting to get frustrated trying tk convince Robert to see logic.

Arvid: Richard, back me up here.

The large man (who could almost be mistaken for a giant if he was bigger.) Glanced in Arvid direction before answering.

Richard: Psh. It doesn't matter if guards show up or even the court mage himself. I'll just kill em if they get in the way.

The tall lanky man scratched his head in frustration as clearly that wasn't what he had expected to hear from the large man.

Arvid almost pulled his hair out as he took a deeo breath and relaxed himself to try and again explain why Roberts plan was horrible.

Arvid: Look-

Despite how peaceful it had been mere moments ago, one of their fellow smugglers rushed to the middle of the camp as he yelled out something.

???: I-I found a body!!

Almost instantly everyone stopped whatever they were doing and rushed to the place that he had pointed out.

When they arrived, they didn't see anything, that was until their fellow smuggler told them to look up.

Everyone looked up, and within a single moment, half of them were puking out their dinners.
