Chapter 18: Fairy Tail Zero (6)
~Third POV~
"Ahahahaha!"
Laughter could be heard throughout the campsite as Warrod, Yuri, Mavis, and Rou all enjoyed eating the fresh foods they all caught and Mavis guarded the site taking the chance to enjoy the chance of living.
Telling each other stories they had gone through from the treasure hunter's side with Yuri smirking with eyes closed off an experience he went through, "And here I warned Warrod over and over again, but he still had to move that stone statue!"
Warrod for his part sweats at that glaring at Yuri recalling that adventure arguing back, "Don't you even joke about that! You're the one who moved it and I told you not to!"
Mavis laughed happily at their adventures of how ridiculous their stories are, "Ahhahahah! And what happened next?"
Precht replies to Mavis's question about what happens next to her calmly hiding his smirk, "An enormous stone started rolling towards us. Filling the whole passageway."
Yuri laughs at this agreeing with Precht's words commenting about their lives almost lost during that hunt, "For a minute there, I thought we wouldn't make it!"
Yuri explains with a grin on his face as Warrod roars out whose fault it was revealing to be Yuri who activated, "It was your fault you know!!"
Rou chewed down on fried fish swallowing the food and grinning commenting on their job, "Treasure hunting must be pretty dangerous work. But the bigger the risk the bigger the pay, right?"
Yuri grins along with a nod biting down on a kabob of mushrooms that Warrod found, "Gulp! Ah… yup! Sure, is Rou! But there's plenty of rewards for the risks!"
Finishing up the mushroom kabob he then grins ferally at Mavis and Rou giving his silent threat to them, "And that Tenrou Jade is an S-Class gem! With that in hand, we could live in luxury on the reward!"
Mavis grins as her eyes narrow at Yuri's words with Rou understanding what he meant as she speaks out clearly, "What you're saying is that we're only allies until we get the gem… is that the point you're trying to drive home?"
Yuri nods agreeing with Mavis's words as Rou sighs at this responding to their conversation about returning the Tenrou Jade as he places his hand over his head, "Sigh… how about we put this topic on a different time when we actually get the Tenrou Jade back."
Warrod gazes at the two kids in front of him as he finally responds about trusting people, "You know you two… you've lived all your lives on the island, right? I don't think you two should be quite trusting toward people. You see, we…"
But Mavis interrupts Warrod with her words causing the treasure hunters to pause briefly over her words and confidence in them, "I know I can trust you all!! One look into your eyes, and I can tell!"
Rou merely smiles at Mavis's positivity as he puts his hand over her head like an older brother would do to their little sister, "Ah Mavis such pure sweet summer child. You are too cute for your own good –Ack!"
*Bam*
Before Rou suddenly got suckered punched by her in the lower jaw blushing at his antics in front of their new friends, "Ah!!! Rou! Please don't do that when we're with friends!"
Precht sees their antics as they are absorbed into their own little world arguing normal kid stuff he sighs commenting on them seeing as they aren't listening to them, "Sigh… kids will be kids. What an odd pair, though I kind of like them."
Warrod nods in understanding what Precht meant as his eyes gaze on Yuri's reaction, "I'd be okay with allowing the two to go home with the Tenrou Jade."
Yuri on the other hand argued back about not handing the Tenrou Jade as Mavis and Rou stopped listening to Yuri's outburst, "Hey!!! Don't give me that crap! You guys are treasure hunters, too, you know?! I will never let up until I have the Tenrou Gem in my hands… and leave those two in the dust!"
Warrod merely shakes his head with eyes closed seeing the outcome of the point, "Oh, for pity's sake!"
Yuri merely grins as Rou gives him a deadpan stare in a neutral tone, "You know we can hear you right?"
Yuri merely flips him the bird as Mavis had her head down as he opens his hand losing the middle finger as he replied, "And? The result will be me winning Rou. And the bet is with Mavis so better be prepared when we get the Tenrou Jade."
Rou sighs at this as he turns around seeing Mavis's puppy dog eyes as he steps back in horror realizing he couldn't say no to, "No…. Mavis. No… you can't use that on me… you promised…"
Mavis for her part didn't care as she wants to take her pity and revenge for his early act replying to him in a cute tone, "Yeah… bwt you pat me and I wanna see that movie! Pwety pwease…?"
"ACK!"
An imaginary pink arrow shot through his heart as he dramatically fell on all fours unable to resist Mavis's puppy dog look as the 3 treasure hunters weren't sure how this situation came to be.
Precht merely shook his head with Rou teasing Mavis with people she trusts commenting on the scene unfolding, "Truly… those kids are talented. But one must never mess with a young maiden's heart."
Warrod sweat drops at their antics confused but knowing full well what was going on, "Yup. That boy is learning firsthand to never tease a maiden's heart."
Warrod nods sagely with Yuri laughing at Rou's misfortune commenting on it, "Hahaha! Kid you really should learn to shut up when teasing girls!"
Rou for his part grew a tick mark scowling at them as he replied to their comments, "Oh yeah?!! How about you guys helping a brother out!"
However, to his dismay, the three merely whistled away as they look away with Rou reacting negatively, "Oh you god damn –"
"Rou~"
Feeling the shiver of Mavis whispering into his ear he immediately clammed up with the tone Mavis was using, "Ok shutting up now."
Locking his lips and nodding his head Mavis smiles as she places her two hands together happy with the outcome, "There. Was it that hard to not curse? You really have a bad potty mouth you know? Someone has to take care of it?"
Mavis feeling confident puffs out her still-growing flat chest as Rou sighs as Warrod, and Yuri chuckles at their antics.
Standing up and doing as he requested Rou began to stretch his limbs as he activated his Archive Magic getting the 3's attention as he talks to Mavis, "Alright, alright already. So… left off during the Demon Slayer to the next arc of my story idea?"
Mavis's eyes shined brightly nodding her head fist pumping into the air wanting to see the next series saga, "Yeah! I want to know what happens next with Tanjiro with his friends on the quest to save his sister and Muzan!!"
The three looked at a screen appearing as it buzzes in showing some images shown with Precht questioning Rou as he types on it, "This is the magic you have? Never seen or heard of this type of Magic before?"
Listening to Precht's question Rou replied to them as they look on in interest at his Magic as he adjusts the volume and screen, "Because it's entirely new. Although more on the supportive side the most I can do with it is telepathy, send info, show what I think, or at the very least make protective barriers. Still trying to add more and work out the kinks of it... but for now in this case…"
Showing on his screen using Archive Magic soon sees what goes through Rou's head seeing the exact movie starting of Demon Slayer with Mavis hyped as her toes curl in anticipation with Yuri blinking at the scene, "Ok… I'm so lost about what the hell a movie even is and what exactly are we seeing here…"
Warrod for his part looks amused and surprised seeing Rou's magic and imagination in effect as well intrigued by the name, "Whoa…! Not going to lie it looks pretty good seeing this… what is it you guys called it? Demon Slayer? Mugen Train? Now I'm kind of interested in how you created this movie you call it?"
At this Rou doesn't mind giving the group a short synopsis of his idea of Demon Slayer giving them the short term of what it is intriguing them of a world of now magic setting but normal people with an organization dedicated to eliminating Demons that are different.
The three were hooked on the idea for different reasons but mostly because they were interested in the world setting so vastly different than their own with people using different ways to fight along with flashy artwork.
Mavis especially was intrigued by the idea along with the movie seeing her favorite characters in story tales from Rou's words given real-life animation like the anime he views to show to others with his magic in her eyes as they see the tale unfold with even Yuri anticipating appreciating the action.
That they all got to see the movie with some comments about it as they enjoyed the free show intrigued.
Along with the treasure hunters seeing the backstory and the length of the MC Tanjiro was willing to do and was shocked that beheading himself in the dreamworld to wake up to fight for his allies certainly got some few points with them.
Then towards the anticlimactic scene where Tanjiro's group won with the rise of a sudden enemy taking down Rengoku despite the injuries and made Mavis tears up as he left his will and knowing his backstory made Yuri tear up at the end scene.
When the movie ended Rou asked for their opinions on it some were confused about what happened with Rou had to explain the stories he told even though he was merely stealing the ideas of his previous world to this one of how Demon Slayer started out there.
After getting the idea Precht liked it because of something powerful and realistic the possibility was similar to their jobs.
Yuri had some mixed feelings about the ending but said that the artwork was amazingly thought up along with the fight scenes.
Warrod nodded happily about the characters of how different they worked well against a common foe.
Mavis didn't like how Rengoku fought and sacrificed himself not getting a happy ending but was also glad he will be passed on his trust to Tanjiro in the end showing a dream of the two fighting before Tanjiro woke up in a sweat as if he fought but pleased how it ended.
All in all the movie he showed was great as Yuri was interested in the next one before they all turned in for the night.
