Chapter 5 - Talk

Carter and the boss of the mansion are now sitting at a small table in a room.that looked like both a living and kitchen environment.With thier being small couches,chairs.a tv on one side of the room and on the opposite side of the room was an oven,microwave,toster,sink,etc.

The two of them have been apparently been sitting at the table in peace and quite for over 30 minutes.

"So…Nice place ya got here."Carter finally said to the women.

"..."

The women didn't replie at all it was like she was in a daze.With her eyes only fixated on him.

Carter felt very uncomfortable by the women's gaze thet multiple thoughts crossed his mind.

Does she think I'm a spy or something?...

I mean I guess I am pretty suspicious.

A random guy who just spawns in out of nowhere not knowing how he got here.

OH GOD I REALLY AM GONNA DIE AREN'T I!

"So."The women finally spoke.

"Yes man-I mean mame."Carter said while sweating.

"How much ya got?"

"Excuse me?...I don't think I understand?"

"Money how much money ya got?"

"Oh I guess non."

"I see."The women said scratching her head.

"..."

"Then I guess you'll work it off."

"Work what off?"

"Us taking you in."

"..."

"..."

WHAT?!?!

Carter then got up from his chair and said,"Wait what but you were the one who caused me to collapse!"

"It was you're fault for trespassing."

"What?!"

  ***

Now somewhere located in a cave two men who digging up for something.

"So…Olrim about that guy you brought over to the mansion how do you know him exactly?"

"Come on Perseus stop kidding around you remember brother."

The figured man then simply responded,"No Olrim seriously who is he?"The figure Perseus asked in a more serious tone this time.

"Come on you know…"

"No Olrim I don't know."

  ***

"So."The boss replied looking at carter.

"Soo what?"

Is this conversation going anywhere?

"I'm going to ask you this question once okey."She said rubbing her head.

"Ok…"

She then got up from her chair and walked towards Carter still rubbing her head as if she had a hangover or something.

Is this lady ok or-Huh?

Carter's thought was then disrupted.

Somehow he was now lying on the floor as if he was knocked out of the chair.

What?

He was confused as to what just happened.

The woman the boss of this mansion stood over him.

What just happened?

Did she just knock me down?

Why?

How?

I thought we were having a nice conversation or at least trying to.

"Sorry kid I just had to make sure."The woman said.

"Make sure of what?!"

"That you weren't an enemy of course."

"An enemy?How could I be I just got here!"

"I get that but…"

"But what!"

"You reek kid of pride."

Huh?Is this drunko stupid or something how does a person reek of pride.I've seen some crazy shit in this world soo far but this come on.This just sounds stupid.

"How does someone reek of pride?Plus if anybody reeks here lady it sure as hell ain't m-"

Before Carter could finish his sentence the woman punched the ground so hard that the floor beneath them began to shake as if there were an earthquake.

"You wanna repeat that what exactly do I reek of?"She said intimidating Carter making him choose his words carefully.

Aww come on the damage is already done.If we're talking about pride I feel like you're pride as a woman was just hurt there by my comment.

"Sorry ok!You smell like beautiful flowers there you happy!"

"Aww you charmer you."She said as she pushed her hair back.And in Carter's view it looked like her nose extended too.

"So anyway can we get back to the subject at hand."

"Right the pride thing."

"Yeah that."He said as he was able to get back up to his feet without fear.

"The reason why I was soo hostile towards you and everyone else that can sense it too is because.You reek of the church of pride."

"The church of pride?"

"Yes an evil church being commanded by a bastard with daddy issues!"she said cleanching her hands in rage as if she was gonna erupt like a volcano.

"A bastard with daddy issues?Say so did you get dumped or some-"

Before Carter could finish his sentence she stomped her feet at the ground causing another earthshake.

"LIKE I'D EVER GO OUT WITH A PIG LIKE THAT!!!"

Seriously what exactly is there relationship and what does it have to do with me?

"So why do I smell like this pride guy?"

"That's what I'd like to know.What'd you say your name was again?"

"Carter Goldvern"

"Goldvern you say...Are you by any chance from another world?"

Carter then looked at her in shock and replied,"Yes,Yes I am but how do you know did someone else come to this world before me from my own?"

"You could say that actually you're staring right at her."

Carter then looked even more shocked then before.

"For real!?"

"Yup never thought I'd be able to meet a pure worlder."

"Pure worlder?"

"..."

"..."

"What's a pure worlder?"Carter questioned.

"Wait?...So you're not from the pure world like me?"

"I don't think so..."

"Oh…"

"..."

"Mind telling me about you're world to evaluate something?"

"Sure."

Well this is awkward and here I thought we were the same.I mean we still might be.Get sent to another world,open a book and black out,run into crazy people.You know the norm here I guess.

 ***

Now sitting in the now clean gambling room was the maid Sakura sitting on a red sofa with tea in hand sitting across from a young man in his early 20s.

He had dark black hair,gold eyes,was wearing an now dusty orange t-shirt with a black scorpion on it and black jeans.The figure earlier who saved Carter with the help of Olrim.The figures name Perseus.

"Sakura what are you're thoughts on the person Olrim brought here?"

Sakura simply took sip of her tea .

"I don't see him as a possible threat to the master.Plus if he was I would have killed him already.He didn't appaer to have any weapons on him at all.But…"

"But what?"

"I was tempted to kill him multiple times while he was sleeping."

"...I'm sorry what?"

"You're suspicious of him right?Did you know he reeks of evil."

"Evil?"

"Yes three powerful disgusting smells."

"Three?.."

"The first one I'm pretty sure even the master has noticed and that one is pride."

Perseus jumped up from his seat in shock at that name.

"Is that bastard disguising himself as that guy?"

"No I don't think that's the case at all.If he was then we'd all be dead by now."

"Damn it!"

"..."

Sakura then continued to sip her tea.

"Wait you said three didn't you?So who are the other two."

"I'd say he's probably the host of gods just like you."

"Wait so you think he read one of the books.But what's the third scent then?"

"The second and third smells are mixed."

"Mixed?So what he's the host of two gods?!"

"Judging by the scent.I'd guess he's the host of an Outer God."

"An Outer God."
