Name: Night Patrol Rank: C Post Limit:: 3 Objective: Onibas is moving forwards, but even though progress is being made, there are still those people that are left behind, and as such the crime rate is on the rise, and the local guards could use a helping hand. Spend a night patrolling Onibas and put a stop to any criminal activity that you see. Reward: 300 Exp: 35
Yoichi smiled at Riley and shook his head "No, Let's go" He told her, Taking the mission parchment and folding it neatly before putting it into his pocket, Not entirely sure on what he was suppose to do with it aside from take it from the board. He turned towards the door and began heading out, Sure that Riley would follow. He would begin making his way towards Onibas. He thought about what Riley said "Years huh? How strong would you say you'd have to start training?" He asked "I figure...If I'm able too I should probably start training right now ya know?" He smiled at her "I think...I'll train in God Slayer Magick's....What types are there?" He asked "You mentioned they could eat their own element so I assume there's types that specifically deal with Fire and air and all that, Correct?"
If such Magicks were made to kill a God, What would happen to a mortal if they were struck by such Magicks? Yoichi smiled some to himself, Thinking about it...If a Mortal were struck by it, They wouldn't stand a chance at living through it that's for sure...Unless it was attuned to only harm a God "And...Hypothetically...If such kinds of Magick's like that, Or dragon slayer....Were to hit a human..." He frowned some "What would happen to them?" He asked her, Seeming a little wary of that kind of Magick.... He made it seem as though he was concerned if someone were to try and use it against another Human. what really would happen though? If it were used against a human...."Taking the name of it into consideration, In particular God Slayer....If it was designed to harm a God, It'd probably be devastating to a human I'd imagine...." He shuddered at the thought but remained with his smile.
He seemed rather cheerful really, But one had to be really, In such times. "I wonder, Riley-San...If you had to fight someone who possessed God Slayer Magicks...Who do you think would win?" He seemed concerned for her, But his concern was mostly for the Guild at the current moment...He was actually concerned for the Guild, The destruction of Griffin Wing wasn't something he had planned, However he always kept it as a possibility if he couldn't win them over. Riley-San however, He wouldn't harm her if he wasn't forced too....He would hate to think of what might happen if he was forced to kill her, She was a nice person, And her death wasn't something he would wish for if he could avoid it.

"Well, I'm not really sure if they just come in the natural elements, so to speak, or if there are other types of slayers as well. Being a lost magic, and so rare at that, it's possible that there are other sorts of dragon or god slayers that I am not aware of," Riley answered, not wanting to lie or make things up, she merely told him the truth of what she knew - even if it involved what she did not know. "And you could start training now, but that requires someone, or something, knowledgeable in the magic. I learned mine from an ancient text, actually." She revealed, walking alongside him as they wandered through Onibas.
"A human with no magic? They would certainly die, no question about it. A mage? Depends on many things. Their power, elemental affinity, etc." She paused as they were about to pass a fruit stand, giving the owner a coin in return for a couple of oranges, one which she tossed to Yoichi. With her remaining orange in her hands, she rolled it beneath her palms, loosening it up a bit before attempting to try and remove the peel.
"Depends who I was fighting," her response sounded rather absent, as she was still fiddling with the orange, "because of my speed alone I'm pretty hard to hit, that's not even factoring in my magical might, or my endurance," Riley went on to say, finally managing to rip off a piece of the orange peel, "I've fought other people with Lost Magics, though, and I've dealt with most of them easily enough. Not to brag, but when you hit a certain point, it becomes difficult for others to compete with you," she pointed out, removing piece after piece of the peel, and simply tossing it on the ground as it was decomposable.
"Of course, I do have my weakness, and I'm by no means immortal - which is a mistake many with lost magics make." As she removed the last of the peel, she finally turned her attention to Yoichi once more, "but, don't worry too much about that. I'm pretty good at taking care of myself." She assured him, breaking apart a section of the orange and popping it into her mouth.

As she tossed him the orange he caught it and smiled, Listening to her explanation as he pulled his sword from it's sheath, Using the blade to cut off the orange peel instead of using his fingers. then once all of it as off, Using the blade to cut off section's of the orange before popping them into his own, By the time she managed to pop the first one in her mouth he was already half way done with his "I see..." He nodded "I suppose once you do reach a certain point that would become true" He smiled at her saying he didn't need to worry about her "That's good...Riley-san...I'm glad that you aren't really concerned or easy to break....That's something a good Guild Master should probably have...That's for sure..."
He paused for a moment, Stopping in place as he looked up at her, His face changed from his usual calm and cheerful manner to a much more stern and stoic one "Riley-san....If, Let's say...Someone really close to you were killed in front of you...And died in your arms...." He paused for a moment as he looked away "How do you think it'd affect you....Or the guild if it was a fellow guild member?" He asked, His voice had changed from the start of his question and began getting softer as he spoke, Almost as though he didn't want to know the answer. What one might not be able to figure out, Was that he was plotting on the best way to vanish... His ultimate plan was to simply vanish without a trace, However...Thinking about it, Making it seem as though he was killed, Was the best way to allow him to train to the point where nobody stood a chance and not have it be detected, At least...Not easily anyway...
"I'm sorry...Nevermind, Forget I asked" He said as he looked back up with a smile, Making it seem like he was hoping she wouldn't answer, But also hoping she would...In reality, He wanted her too, But didn't want to make it seem obvious that, that was his intention.

"Mmhm, no matter what, a guild master has to remain strong. After all, so many people are looking at you when things go wrong, you can't very well add to the chaos," she answered, eating another piece of her orange as she allowed herself to look towards some of the other vendors that they were passing.
As he paused, she took a couple of steps forwards, pausing to look at him, as though about to turn, though his question caused her to face forwards once more, refusing to look towards him as her hands picked idly, anxiously, at what was left of the orange. For a few moments, there was complete and utter silence from her, as she tried to find the words that she wanted to speak. "That... has already happened," she pointed out, feeling a tension in her chest that she had not felt for some time, "he wasn't from the guild, but... The peopled who killed him should thank their lucky stars that I was within an inch of death myself and could not get to them," she sighed, as though trying to exhale her negative emotions.
Sure, she was a sweet, mild mannered person, but she did have an aggressive side, as rarely as it cared to show itself, that much was necessary to survive in a battle, particularly when the stakes were one's own life.
"I've mentioned it many times in passing, already," Riley added, and simply began to walk forwards once more. She didn't bother to look back at him, and though she did not feel like eating her orange any longer, she shoved another piece of it into her mouth.

He didn't say anything as he listened to her, Following after when she began moving. While they walked he felt the tension in his own chest as well as in the air over the subject, He didn't smile, Not wanting to make it seem like it was alright... "I'm sorry, Riley-san" He hoped she didn't ask 'For what?' For she wasn't ready for his answer, At least.....Not yet...However, Her answer begged yet more questions "I don't want to keep asking...Or prying... But, I just want to know, Riley-san...What if, The person that did it...Even if you had the power right then and there, What if the person that did it, You couldn't stop or find? What would happen to the Guild?" These were all question's he had to know if he was to bring his plan to fruition....If it would cause the Guild to crumble...Then he couldn't have his plan go through, At least, Not like that..."I mean...The Guild needs someone strong to be in charge ya know? And you are a really good person...."
He paused for a moment "I'm sorry if this is making you nervous or anything, Riley-san....But I just want to know if I'll have to be your pillar if something like that were to ever happen to you...After all, If I'm to help protect Griffin Wing with you...I'll have to learn to be strong, And be your Pillar of Strength in desperate times ya know?" He smiled halfheartedly at her, He didn't want her to feel like he was prying despite the fact that he was, And he didn't want to push her away either...So he had said what he did to try and encourage her to open up and share with him. She had essentially asked him to protect Griffin Wing with her, Which, Despite that he'd of done it regardless, Meant that he needed to ensure she was as open as possible with him.
As they walked he ate his orange a bit slower now, Finishing it well after she finished hers probably. And with that, He'd wipe the blade clean on his shirt before sheathing the blade. "Also, Riley-san...If, Hypothetically...A Guild Member were to attack another, Thinking that they were themselves attacking another, What would be the punishment?" He asked, Genuinely curious as to what her answer would be....He had a plan for his return, Weather it be from the grave or otherwise...He'd find the one member that seemed the least loyal, And set up a high ranking mission, One that the seemingly least loyal member would accept...And have them attack her, Or perhaps he'd spar with her...Either way, He'd attack her in some form or another, And that's when he'd reappear...Like an Angel descending from the heaven's to come to her side.

"Not your fault," Riley rather simply, quietly responded. She had never really understood why people said that, but she assumed it was to console the person, not that it ever really worked. Nevertheless, she appreciated the effort. Clearing her throat a bit, her shoulders tensed a bit more at his questions. She preferred to be honest, but the reminders of the incident were getting a little too heavy for her own tastes.
"That is more or less what has happened," she murmured, raising one hand to rest rather awkwardly on the side of her neck, "at first, I just avoided people entirely... went up to Mount Hakobe for... I don't actually know how long I was there..." She admitted, releasing another deep sigh that seemed as though it might deflate her, "when I am away from the guild, Durriken takes over. He is the assistant guild master, after all." Riley pointed out.
"Mm, I'll live," she assured, allowing her hand to fall to her side as she did so. As soft spoken as she was, she was still a strong person, and not simply in terms of magic. At his comments about becoming her pillars of strength. In response, she forced a small smile for him, giving a nod of acknowledgement.
"Well, they attack each other all the time, trying to figure out whom is the strongest," Riley absently pointed out, eager to get away from the topic that made her so uncomfortable, "but I don't really know. I've never had to deal with that, everyone pretty much knows each other, seeing each other around the guild all the time and such," she cast a glance to him, her green eyes only about half open, "that was a pretty specific question." She added, though it sounded like something of an after thought, as she pulled her eyes away from him once more, dancing along the streets.

He rubbed the back of his head "Ah...Sorry...Old habits die hard is all...I try to only use my Magick's to protect but...Often times I wind up seriously hurting someone when I don't mean too that's all...So I just wanted to know what the worst circumstances would bring if I didn't control myself better..." He rubbed the back of his head nervously and let out a forced chuckle. "Sorry" He said again as he looked down some, Placing his hands back in his pants pockets, Sliding his coat back some "I'll try my hardest to keep control of my actions though so you don't need to worry too much...I'll ask them first before I do anything" He said with a smile, Letting a sigh out in his head
'That was close...Almost gave it away' He thought to himself, Putting on a smile, Placing one hand on her shoulder reassuringly. He sighed a bit, hoping to ease the tension in the air some "So...What's your favorite spell?" He asked, Wanting to change the subject entirely to lighten the mood. "My book is pretty hard to translate so I don't know very many so I really don't have a favorite one at the moment...Although that gravity thing that you did earlier was pretty cool" He said with a smile, moving his hand off her shoulder now as they continued walking, He looked around and sighed "Pretty quiet tonight...I was kinda hoping for something to do other then just walk around the street's ya know? I guess deep down everyone wants to fight at some point...."

"Ah, I see," Riley nodded her head softly to his words, "just practice controlling it and that will eventually become much easier for you," she assured him, her hands buried deep in the pockets of her jacket, "and remember to be careful outside of the guild and such as well. If someone is trying to kill you, then you are free to do what you must to protect yourself, but remember, the government doesn't exactly love Griffin Wing. Try not to give them any reasons to cause trouble."
She felt his hand on her shoulder, looking to it briefly before diverting her gaze to his face, "I don't really have one... Those I do favor a spell called Stellar Body, that immensely increases my speed, and yes, some of the gravity based spells as they are very useful for pinning my targets where I want them to stay," she reasoned, feeling him remove his hand, she seemed to simply disappear.
"Not that I really need a speed boost, most of the time," Riley added, from the other side of him, apparently having grown a little playful once more. With his statement about wanting to fight, Riley took a sharp turn, heading down an alley way as she began to take off her jacket once more (as it was more or less a dead giveaway of whom she was). "Well, if trouble wont find us, I can bring it to me with disturbing ease," she called back to him, "you stay there for a second. You'll know when to follow." She went on to say, and as she tied her jacket around her waist, pulling what appeared to be an engagement ring (a somewhat pricey one at that) from her pocket, she slid it onto one of her fingers, rounding a corner and disappearing from sight.
There was silence, utter silence at that, for what seemed to be a couple of minutes in the dark of night, when there was no one else about. However, eventually there was a clanging of metal, and a garbage can came rolling around the corner - a garbage can with a thuggish looking man in it, no less.
Riley, of course, was the cause of it, as she stood, surrounded by other such thugs that, while stunned, were pretty angry at her for what she had done.
"Oh, my, I'm sorry. I was so scared I couldn't help myself," she told them, though her polite smile didn't really match the implication that she was afraid (which of course she was not).

At the start he sighed as he waited, It wasn't until the clanging of trash cans that his attention was grasped. At first he saw brutes, Then he heard Riley's voice "RILEY!" He unsheathed his blade quickly "Dark Écriture: Wings" Within less then a second, Runes were inscribed up his arms and right onto the whole of his back, Causing black wings to sprout out and beat down heavily, kicking up the wind in the alley as he launched himself into the air "Dark Écriture: Fear!" He wrote the runes in the air as he drew closer to the men, Making a slash across the runes he'd fire the runes out at the thugs, Aiming to slap into each one of them and cause an extreme amount of fear to overwhelm them and hold them in place, He slammed his feet into the ground as he launched himself above the thugs and Riley
"Dark Écriture: Pain!" He wrote runes in the air and made another slash across them, Causing pillar's to appear around him and above the thugs, He raised his sword and brought it down, Aiming to crush the pillar's into the men and cause a massive amount of pain to overwhelm their bodies, However...He did not stop there "Dark Écriture: Pain!" He said again, Inscribing more runes and doing the exact same again, Aiming to amplify the pain even more...At the rate he was going, It seemed like his goal wasn't to just stop the men... It was to kill them.

Riley was not alarmed by the speed at which Yoichi responded to the man in the trash can, rather she was somewhat impressed by how swiftly he jumped into action and began to launch spells at the enemy. She was not entirely concerned as this much she had expected, and rather than trying to attack as well, she allowed him to fight alone, knowing that he would not grow if she were to shelter or coddle him.
She would have been content to leave him be, if it had not become plainly obvious to her that he was no longer trying to stop the man - he was aiming to kill them, though they were clearly not much of a threat at all. "Tch," she mumbled, giving her wrist a flick and fingers a snap, she used a gravity spell on Yoichi, slamming him instantly into the ground, and furthermore pinning him there for the time being.
"My, my, what ever am I going to do with you?" She wondered, now watching the thugs pick up their wounded and scrabble off to safety. With a bit of a sigh, she sat herself down... On Yoichi's back, no less. "Perhaps I should pin you here for a while," she mused, resting her elbows on her knees, she laced her fingers together before her face, "I can recognize blood lust with ease, you see, so I do hope you have an explanation for what just happened, and why you were trying to kill humans that can't even use and ounce of magic."
Spell Name: Gravity’s Grasp Type: Heavenly Body Level: Mediocre Range: 50 feet Description: Riley flicks her wrist before suddenly gravity itself grabs a single target, yanking them down and slamming it into the earth with surprising force - pinning them down for a short time as well as crushing them with gravitational force and pain. Drawback: The spell has a two post cool down between uses, the target can only be pinned down for two posts, and if they are stronger then Riley they can shatter the binding.

He was about to cast a third spell as he felt the gravity on his body increase suddenly, His expression changed to a very shocked one as his body was sent hurdling towards the ground, His wings struggled to beat down as they tried slowing his descent until he crashed into the ground where he struggled to try and move. His wings weakly tried to get off the ground as did the rest of his body. 'what the....' He thought, And then realized his actions as Merc sat down on his back.
He had stopped struggling by this point, It clearly obvious that she was the one pinning him down and making it impossible for him to move, So it was pointless to struggle "I lost control again...." He muttered, Closing his eyes and gritting his teeth "When I saw those thugs attack you....I just couldn't stop myself...My first thought was 'Go now, Defend Riley-chan! Protect her with your life! No matter what you have to do!' And so I did...I wanted to make them suffer for what they were trying to do to you....I didn't stop to think about the fact that you could defend yourself...I didn't stop to think about their safety...I wanted to hurt them, To make them feel so much pain they'd never want to inflict it on anyone else...."
He paused for a moment as he tried curling up as much as he could "I....I'm sorry, Riley-chan"

Riley exhaled a bit, remaining where she was seated, though the pressure of the gravity lifted slowly off of his body once he had calmed down and rationalized that it was she who had pinned him there. From her perch on his back, she looked towards his head, watching him from the corner of her eye. She listened to him as he rambled, her head nodding ever so slightly to his words, though it was unlikely that he could see this.
"You're going to have to start thinking about these things," she replied, sounding a bit stoic herself as she had a point to get across, and for her to be serious about it meant that it was rather important to her. "Even without my magic, I can handle myself well enough against people like them. Rushing to you allies aid is a good thing, but killing people that have no means of fighting you is not," she sighed once more, shifting a little where she sat.
"I forgive you, on the condition that you put in the effort to stop things like this from happening. I appreciate the sentiment, but I would also feel really badly if someone died because of me, even if they meant me harm," she went on to say, slowly sliding herself to sit on the ground, allowing him to get up, if he so pleased.
"Lives should not be taken so cheaply."

When she released him finally and moved off his back he slowly rose to his knees and nodded "I'll try...I'm sorry" He said again, In all reality, He didn't know what had come over him...All he remembered was that he saw the person he was falling for in what most would view as trouble. To be fair though, He had told her that old habits died hard earlier that day. He sighed and sat backwards, now sitting with his legs crisscrossed in front of him "I'll try to learn to control myself better, Riley-chan"
With that he slowly stood and sighed "Well, Shall we finish our patrol?"

Riley nodded her head softly, watching as he upright himself somewhat, "well, that's all I'm asking for," she pointed out, and as he got to his feet she did the same. Untieing her jacket from around her waist, she slid it onto her arms once more, though did not bother to button up the front this time. After having deposited the ring into her pocket, she turned towards him once more.
"Mm, you can lead the way this time," she suggested, raising a hand to gesture for him to move forwards first. "We can go to whatever part of town you want, maybe it's best to stay out of dark back alleys for the time being..."

He laughed and nodded "Yea maybe" He said and chuckled softly and began walking....However, He led her off to a vacant part of the city and onto a bridge overlooking a stream, Stopping at the middle of the bridge as he moved to the edge of it and smiled "It sure is beautiful out tonight, Wouldn't you agree, Riley-chan?" He said, looking over at her and smiling "Tell me something, Riley-chan..." He began as he turned back to the stream and looked up at the moon "Have you ever wondered, What it'd be like to become something more then a God? Something, That no Magick's, Not even a God, Could touch?" He mused, His voice trailing off a bit
"I thought about it quite often really...I've read that with Dark Écriture, One can write law's that everybody must obey....With that kind of power, Imagine what one could do...If I became strong enough, I could write a law and make it so there'd be no more crime in the world ever again" He said with a smile "That Monster's didn't exist, And that everyone lived happy forever...Nobody would starve ever again, Nobody would have to worry about getting beaten or hurt while walking somewhere" He paused for a moment and turned around "And most importantly, Nobody would have to lose another loved one ever again...Wouldn't that be great? Riley-chan?"
He had a big ol' smile on his face now "Just imagine if I could ever become that powerful...I could even write a law that could bring the dead back to life!" He giggled some "So I could even bring your husband back to life!" He smiled widely at this. He had seen the ring so he figured she had been married at one point in her life...And it was obvious that he was the one she had spoken of earlier....It'd be great wouldn't it? If he could bring her husband back to life...Surely she'd be willing to help him out with just about anything, Right?
