How the sun was shining brightly today… Hyōen surely enjoyed his stay in the home town of his guild, Lamia Scale, but now that the sun began emitting an unforgiving heat, he felt the need to move. He didn’t know that much about the temperatures in other cities, but rather try than staying here. Besides, he wanted to see a little more of the world out there; Orchidia Town held a special place in his heart for obvious reasons, though, but it was time to see the rest of the country. It was time to loosen up, and perhaps he wouldn’t regret it at all later…

First of all, he had to cancel his stay at the motel. That took longer than expected; the realtor and owner of the house wanted him to stay a little longer due to his contribution in the business both financially and physically. They came with suggestions and wishes for him to remain with them, which reached the point where Hyōen was almost caught by a damn whip! It was after that he declined their last offer, and as he was approaching the door, the sound of something slapping came forth. It turned into a huge ranting, but he did forgive them for their desperate assault quickly. Besides, it did give him some confidence, feeling that he was wished and needed… he didn’t think about the ridiculousness of all that.

When he approached the gate, it did remind him of when he arrived. Coda was resting on his shoulder, looking out to the unknown space between the cities that kept unlimited mysteries in store for any curious heart out there. However, his destination was decided; Magnolia Town, it was. “… There’s a guild at Magnolia, if I’m not wrong,” Hyōen mumbled to himself and Coda. Yes, if he remembered, the guild was called Fairy Tail; staying at Lamia Scale did give him knowledge about other guilds, so it wouldn’t be surprising for him to know. He never met another mage outside his guild, though, except that guildless Lacie girl whom he ate crepes with. Her whereabouts were unknown to him now, but that didn’t bother him. Now, he was already beginning to walk out and found himself between shrubbery. Coda was airing her wings while he walked, taking the luxurious chance now, while Hyōen got lost in thoughts of the new town that he was heading too.
