章 267: Weird Guide

"Oh. Well, yeah. You probably know my guild better than I do," Yoichi replied, trying to be friendly. Even though Takuma looked like a guy who was too boisterous and out of control for his taste, he conveyed a sense of friendship to Yoichi. 

The two tamers looked at each other and smiled, feeling a strange empathy. Yoichi had recently begun to believe in destiny, and if everything was truly the result of a larger scheme, even the tamer of that strange scarecrow could play a role in his life. 

"Okay, listen up gentlemen," the young tamer added. "I thank you for your thoughtfulness and certainly, if Takuma would like to accompany me on my mission, I will not stop him. However, although I would stay in your village to talk with you, I have a schedule to keep. In five days I must be in Ambershire," Yoichi explained.
