Chapter 29: The annoying bard

  " We're no strangers to love
You know the rules and so do I
A full commitment's what I'm thinking of
You wouldn't get this from any other guy.. "

" Ahhh!! "

" Shut him up already! "

" This...What's going on? "

Anzu muttered as they stared at the lively and rowdy tavern.

After what happened earlier today, she and the others decided to visit Bakura at his house. Upon arriving, they notice Bakura's monster world figures collection and they decided to play a game with him. He would be the dark master of the game and they are the adventurers that would save everyone from the dark master.

Since they have no clue, Anzu suggested for their group go to the village. It has taken 5 turns for them to arrive and Bakura has opened the roof of the tavern for them.

But upon opening the roof, they were graced by this strange and lively scene.

She also never thought for the game to be so good. How did Bakura make all of these figures? Since he was the one roleplaying them, how could he do it? Did he have a record of the voices playing somewhere?

While Anzu was thinking thoughtfully, Miho was a little upset as she stared at the Bard.

" What's wrong Miho-chan? "

Honda asked Miho as he saw her glaring at the Half-elf Bard of the Tavern.

" The half-elf bard looks like that annoying guy! "

Yugi stared at the half-elf bard and nodded his head.

" You're right Miho-chan! The half-elf bard looks like Horo-san! "

The others stared and also agreed. After a while, Jonouchi noticed that there was also a familiar face upon the monster world figures in the tavern, one of the villagers looks like Karita-sensei.

" Hey! I like to ask about the monsters! "

In the original, Karita-sensei would originally break his character and asked for help. But with Tokio around and the rowdy scene in front of him, Karita obediently fulfilled his role as a villager.

" Recently, the dark ruler Zorc appeared and took the castle. Since then, evil monsters started appearing in this world. Many villagers have fallen victim. "

" What?! How unforgivable?! Which way is the castle? "

Jonouchi exclaimed and asked Karita. The latter answered his question.

" North of this village. "

" Alright! Let's leave the village! "

Eagerly, Jounouchi took his monster world figure, but before he could move it, Anzu intervened.

" Wait, aren't we going to ask the other villagers? "

She pointed at the rowdy scene of the other villagers complaining because of the Half-elf Bard.

" Anzu is right. The other villagers and the unusual bard that looks like Horo-san may give us some clues. "

Yugi agreed with Anzu's reason. Then everyone decided to approach the rowdy villagers and the half-elf bard of the tavern.

" Critical Role ♪
Roll the dice ♪
The adventure begins, and your friends are always beside you
Your nerdy best friends help and the DM traps you
And the adventurers summoned to this village for the battles ahead
Zorc beware cause you are about to be defeated
They got magic and friendship, they got plot armor and bullshitting
They don't see over there, there are monster traps incoming
Inspiration is waiting, rise and think wisely
Put your fate in the spirit
Take a chance, roll the dice
Critical Role ♪ (Roll the Dice) "

When the song ended, Miho clapped her hands even though she still dislike this monster figure who looks like that guy.

" Amazing Bakura-kun! I didn't know that you could create a song very well. "

She praised Yami Bakura. Though, she didn't notice that Yami Bakura was threatening the half-elf bard with a bored expression currently with his menacing stare.

" We don't need to ask the villagers and the bard now, He has already given the clue! Let's go Yugi! "

" Wait Jounouchi-kun! "

Yugi, together with Anzu, Miho, and Honda followed the impatient Jounouchi who was impatient to play the game.

Yami Bakura stares at the villagers and Tokio with a very scary expression for a moment before he returned to the roof of the tavern. A few minutes later, the villagers sighed in relief.

An old man dressed in wizard robes then approached Tokio.

" It was fortunate that monster can't be bothered with your behavior kid, what would happen if he decided to kill you because of your behavior? "

Tokio listened to the old man's behavior and stared at the other villagers that were with him in the tavern, the anime didn't tackle what happened to the people in the monster world figures after Yami Bakura was defeated in the Monster World.

But from his speculation, all of the victims should have been freed.

It was unexpected that he would get entangled in this plot. But since he was on the sidelines, it was okay and he was happy to fulfill his role as a role player.

Tokio then smiled maliciously. The wizard grandpa and the other villagers in the Tavern look at him with a wary expression.

Since this kid has come here, they always feel that he was unusual.

He still holds a lot of grudge and resentment that happened to him over the years and Tokio wouldn't forget about what happened in the Ouroboros Game.

This is a golden opportunity to pour over his resentment toward this world, the protagonist, and Yami Bakura involving him in this plot.

Holding his lute, Tokio activated the skills that he acquired as a bard and started playing music.

" When a humble bard
Graced a ride-along
With Geralt of Rivia
Along came this song.. "

The villagers sighed.

" Here we go, again. "

" When would this kid shut up? "

Even though the songs that came from the kid are good, ever since he come here, he didn't stop singing.

They were tired of hearing him sing and they want some peace.

After singing the 'toss the coin to your witcher' in jap version, Tokio followed it by singing Role playing game and party x party.

Later, the villagers and Tokio heard Yami Bakura, Yugi, and the others. The villagers felt despair as their hope of getting out of this was in trouble.

" Critical Role
Your adventure begins
I would like to remind you
Your trapped best friends and Zorc who have fooled you
As Zorc has laid his trap and your souls are trapped inside
Adventurers beware as you are about to be dead
Zorc got magic and schemes
He was deceitful and cunning
He was the dark master of this world
Everyone has to do his bidding
Devastation and darkness, think wisely about how to fight
Now it's his turn. His turn to roll the dice! "

The villagers glared at Tokio their fears temporarily forgotten. They were directing him through complicated expressions as if wanting to ask whose side is he on.

But while those are in their thoughts, they were surprised when the roof to the tavern is removed again.

The villagers and Tokio stared.

" Tokio-san you have been enjoying tormenting the villagers with your music, you were quite loud but a talented one. How about you lend your help to me and my friends? "

Staring at the confident Yugi asking for his help, Tokio cursed inside his mind. It's seems that Karma has come to bite his ass.
