Ronin wiggles in the rope trying to loosen it, to no avail. He looks down at the sword pointed at his throat then follows the blade up to the face of his capture.
Why? Ronin asks annoyed at the situation.
Because you are defiantly not my father, so who are you and what have you done with him? Indrim exclaims.
I don't have to answer that question. Ronin turns his nose up at her.
Yes you do!!
Look these aren't some magic Wonder Woman ropes, therefore I am not compelled to answer.
Wonder.... what? Indrim looks confused
You might not want to piss her off, Ronin. Edgar says.
She has no reasoning here, thou, she just randomly tied us up.
Look, I can see that your ora does not match my father's, but both oras are present in his body. So what did you do?
Not my problem. And I even had a set of armor made for you, talk about gratitude.
So you planned this from the start, to bring me along?
Of course, I did, cause I'm the greatest strategist that ever lived!
No... That would be me. Indrim rebuts.
OK. If you're so smart, I challenge you to figure it out for yourself.
How do I know you're not the one who killed my mother?!
Cause I was there when we got the news, you think I could fake the devil eye thing?
No, I suppose not.... Wait, that means father still has some control over his body, He could tell me!
I am not getting in the middle of this. Edgar exclaims. Besides, I'm cool with chilling here.
You are getting way to comfortable with my world's use of words. Next thing I know, you'll be saying you want to netflix and chill. Ronin thinks to himself.
What is netflix? Edgar asks.
Nevermind. Ronin sighs. I had Crunchyroll anyways.
Crunchy...roll? That sounds delicious!
Your father doesn't want in the middle of this "Lover's quarrel".
I DIDN'T SAY THAT. Edgar yells
"Lovers"? Indrim blushes angerly. Like you would be any suitable match for a Princess.
Well I was known as the King of Strategy.
That sounds like a lie if I ever heard one.
IT'S NOT A LIE. Ronin yells.
Indrim looks at Ronin blankly for a moment then unties him. I guess I can trust you, all things considered. But give me a reason not to and I don't care whose body you're in, I'll put you in a world of hurt.
STOP PISSING HER OFF. Edgar yells. Say something nice for once.
Ronin stands up smiling. I knew you'd figure it out eventually, you're pretty smart.
Indrim blushes again. Thanks.. I guess. So can you at least tell me your name?
Sure, it's Ronin Hitima. I look forward to working with you. Holding out his hand.
Indrim shakes his hand. If you're as good as you boast, then so do I.
A bond of friendship formed by a bound interrogation, cause that seems like good chemistry.
