Joshua and Misery were able to get a job at an inn near the Colosseum. Thanks to Aria's spies they were able to find a place to work for a while to gather information.
Joshua was a errand boy, while Misery took care of the tables for all of the warriors who were participating in the battle in the next few hours. They would get close to nothing from everyone in the town, most people were just as ignorant of their country as the foreigners who came.
"This is useless." Joshua sighed.
The two had a meetup spot behind the bar where their work is frequent.
Misery pinched the edges of her black dress and smiled a bit.
"I wish I could see myself in a mirror with this." She turned to Joshua. "Do you think I would look good in a dress like this?"
Joshua gave her a face of disbelief.
"We're on a mission here, Misery." He sighed. "But you look nice."
"Really?!" She smiled wildly and giggled a bit. "I'm usually always wearing those stuffy squad clothing and no one would compliment me at all, you know?"
"Well there is a fine line between work and fashion." Joshua got up. "Japheth should be here soon to get his meal, the first brackets of the tournament should is close too."
Japheth and Yuri walked into the Inn known as Odin's Stowaway, it's warming air gave a real sense of comfort. The only discomfort here were the rowdy guess who talked loudly and slammed their mugs together readying for the battle in the arena.
"What a barbaric place." Yuri shuddered.
"Hey Joshua!" Japheth called his friend who was near a table of customers.
Once he saw the sack like clothing on his friend along with the pants that seemed to have been on a scarecrow a laugh of mockery came from Japheth.
"Where'd you get the new duds." He laughed at Joshua.
""I'm trying to work sir." Joshua spoke through gritted teeth. "If you cause any trouble I'll have to ask you to leave."
"Alright, alright." Japheth sat down holding in his many insults.
Once he and Yuri had a table to themselves, Joshua came over acting like he was getting their orders.
"We don't know each other, you idiot." He said through a hiss. "The tournament will begin soon and we still don't have any information of this place, whoever is holding down the mouths of these people are really good at it or everyone here really lives in ignorant bliss."
A loud rattle came from across the room, all eyes and ears were pointed to this direction.
"Ya little bastard!" A loud voice slurred.
The sight of a fully grown man tossing a boy who wasn't half his size was in the sight of everyone.
A knife was stuck into his thick hair covered arms, the hulking figure took out the knife without a sign of pain. His furious eyes looked down on the child with an intensity near hell's flame.
"Damn you, Duke Calzaghe!" The child got up ready to fight, even with his knees buckling from the weight of fear. His teeth chattered talking to the anxiety within his heart. "You killed my sister ya big good for nothing."
"I have no idea who you speak of!" Duke was now towering over the child. "Well even if she is dead, I'll send ya to her." His fist tightly clenched and flew towards the child. The sudden collision of something hard made his hand almost lose feeling from the pain that was delivered.
"What the hell?!" Duke screamed in agony.
Japheth's arm was covered in rocks that blocked off the attack.
"Hitting a child with full power is below a man." Japheth sighed. "Unless your not a man?"
