Kazeharu had been sitting against a tree since his talk with Amadeus. He had decided not to drink, mainly because he didn't want to draw attention to himself in a camp where everyone was a seasoned warrior who can cut him does or a skilled magician who could burn him alive. "Damn, I'm gonna be bored for awhile." He sighed as he polished his blades. "I don't think anyone HERE will buy any of my swords, they probably all have their own personal weapons, dammit." He sheathed the sword and knocked his head against the tree, "How the hell am I gonna make money here." 

"I got an idea." He heard someone say, he looked over to his left and saw Amadeus standing there. 

"Yo, Mini Swordsman!" He said with a wave.

"Please don't call me that."

"NOPE!" Kazeharu said with a chuckle, "So you said something about money?" He said with a raised brow. 

"Yeah, I realize that we don't really know when my sword will be finished so you are probably going to be hanging around the camp for awhile. So since you are here, might as well make yourself useful" 

"And how will I do that?" He asked, not really sure what the younger man was going to say 

"Be my assistant." He said with a smile, "I'm guessing you are at least decent in fighting right?" He asked

Kazeharu nodded a bit, "I can hold my own against most enemies."

"Good, all you would really be doing is helping me in small tasks and going on missions with us, you won't really be fighting all the time but you will be assisting me." He explained

The samurai thought about it for a bit "I don't know."

"You're getting paid"

"Deal!" he said as he shot up. "From now on I'll be your assistant, Mini Boss." He said as he ruffled the boys head.

"Please stop calling me 'Mini', it's degrading." Amadeus said as he kicked the man in the shin. 

"Awe, why not? That's what you are right?" 

"Then Boss works just fine, I'd rather you not mention my size" he said a little embarrassed 

Kazeharu noticed the gesture, "I keep forgetting that you're a badass warrior, you seem so ... Normal, like you belong in a library studying history instead of making it.”He said took out a pipe and lit it, taking a few inhales before blowing out the smoke. “Well compared to the other people here anyways. I mean, your teammate Solanne kinda looked like a badass." He said with a kinda goofy smile, inhaling another puff from his pipe while remembering the 'beauty' he had saw previously that day.

"Solannes really just the tip of the iceberg, I got a teammate who causes earthquakes when he's mad, another who has a reputation for incinerating everything on the battlefield with ease, including teammates, and the last one recently grew a tail." He said 

Kazeharu shivered a bit, "Well when you're surrounded by monsters like them, no wonder you're looking for more weapons. How the hell do you keep up with them?" he asked

Amadeus’s eyes glowed slightly behind his eye before they dimmed again, “I was actually no help at all during our first mission, I’ve actually been training nonstop so that doesn’t happen again.” He said with a confident smirk, it was true that he had been training both his mind and body, training his magic and swordsmanship while also studying everyone else’s fighting styles using Ethos’s Eyes. 

"Well whatever." He said in a sort of bored way, "Say, if I'm gonna be working for you, that means I'm gonna be working with your teammates to right? Including the beauty?"

Amadeus sighed, "I swear, you're just as bad as Harley." He said while he rubbed his neck.

Kazeharu gave a goofy smile "Hey man, what can I say. I'm a sucker for beautiful wo-"

"FIRE!!" Someone yelled, interrupting Kazeharu.

Amadeus and Kazeharu looked at each other for a second, "Damn, are we being attacked?!" Kazeharu asked alittle panicked.

"Probably not, not many are ballzy enough to attack an encampment with the 42 strongest warriors in it. My guess, either Harley pissed off Solanne, Marianne pissed off Hazel, or literally anyone pissed of Isen'roy." Amadeus said in a sort joking way

“... Isen’roy is the tough looking red haired guy?”

“Yep”

“... Hazel’s the tough looking red haired teen girl?”

“Yep”

“... And Solanne is the tough looking red haired beauty?”

“Yep” 

“... Red heads are scary."

"Welcome to the Blight Retaliation Encampment" Amadeus said jokingly

"... I bet 20 bronze it’s Isen’roy.” He bet as he took out a small coin pouch.

Amadeus’s eyes glowed behind his bangs as he used his power to see who’s tent it was “I have 30 on Hazel.” He said with a smirk 

“Deal.” the samurai said as the two began to walk towards the fire.
