5 Chapter 3 Misunderstanding... (1/2)
Saber turned and blinked at the police officer several times before she cutely said, ”Are you talking to me?”.
The officer, Chiba Toshikazu blushed slightly when he say Musashi's beautiful face and gorgeous figure, however he remained stern and said, ”Ma'am, I'm going to have to ask you to put the child down and come with me”.
Saber turned and looked at her Master before the latter sighed and said, ”Fine. Let's go Saber. I'd hate to make a enemy of this countries Magic Technicians anyway. You should be careful as well, they may not have good physical abilities but some Magicians have outstanding Magecraft. Do not underestimate them”.
She nodded and put the young boy down and together they walked over to the police officer.
”Are you arresting her officer?”, the man, Chiba Toshikazu was surprised when the young boy asked the questions instead of the woman but ignored Takemi and looked at Musashi.
”Ma'am are you this child's guardian?”.
Saber blinked again before a voice entered her head telling her to say yes.
”Yes, I am. Takemi is my nephew. We may not look-a-like but I'm sure you can see the family resemblance”. The eyes were the obvious trait that they shared. Although a DNA test may disprove that, but having the same multi-colored eyes would make most people believe it.
”And what is your name?”, Toshikazu took out a notepad and a pen and started recording things down.
”Ah my name! It is Shinmen Musashi-. I mean Musashi Mikazuchi. Sorry, it's a joke”, she rubbed the back of her head and poked out her tongue playfully as if flirting with the man.
'She might not realize it, but she's an expert at seduction as well', thought Takemi. Her persona outside of battle was a childlike one, not knowing most common things as all her time was spent developing her sword techniques. It was natural and not forced like some other peoples. It was quite easy to become ensnared in her innocent smile.
It obviously worked on this Chiba Toshikazu because he looked away trying to hide the redness on his face, ”Well that's alright. It is a pretty old an uncommon name anyway. Although I haven't heard of a family of Magicians with someone as beautiful as you before”.
Takemi sent more words over his mental link with Saber, ”Well, it's a long story. We were only a small group no more than ten. But one night...”.
Saber's eyes became watery, ”I'm sorry. It hasn't been that long and I'm still-”.
Chiba Toshikazu became flustered and pulled out a handkerchief for Saber and his face revealed guilt and regret for asking such a personal question.
”No it's not your fault. The blame is on me, I shouldn't of asked such a thing”.
If it was possible for Takemi to give his Servant a mental applause he would've.
'That was great Saber! How did you do seem so realistic!'
The Servant's tone was proud, 'Back when I was alive, there were lots of times when I ran out of money for food and couldn't pay the bill. I gradually became better and better at acting and faking my emotions. Who knew it would still work in the current era! Hahaha!”.
Takemi stifled a laughter. The great Miyamoto Musashi skipping out on paying for meals? That would ruin his image if anyone found out the truth!
”Anyway, would you please come with me? I've practically memorized the register for Japan's Magicians and I know for a fact that you're not on it. If you register today than I'll forget everything I saw, how bout' it?”. He tried to lighten the mood a little Takemi sent more messages to Saber.
'Agree to it. We need to find out more about this world. My knowledge of if is only applicable to the events 3-4 years from now. We need to establish our identities and perhaps allies, if I recall the 'Chiba' Family is one of the Ten Great Master Clans. This man could help us'.
Saber smiled at her Master and held his hand as they followed Toshikazu.
The two spoke small talk the entire way there and Musashi drew many looks from passerby's. Mainly because of her beauty and figure, but also from the way she dressed. Traditionally with 4 swords. They knew she was a Magician but never saw one so cultural.
”Well. This is the place. The Kanto Branch of the Magic Association!”.
A let go of Musashi's hand and looked all around me. There were several people going in and out of the building constantly, either dressed in police outfits, suits or the occasional military gear.
Although, once again, Musashi and Takemi seemed to draw everyone's attention. Most eyes were on Saber, but the occasional female glanced at me and winked.
”This is were you can register you and your nephew to the Japanese Magic Association. This way your nephew may enter a one of the 9 Magic Universities once he becomes of age. Here this way”.
Walking through several hallways and politely nodding to people the three of us reach a medical wing with a number of children with adults inside.
A young girl with bright red-orange hair came up to us and ran into Toshikazu's embrace.
”Onii-chan!”.
The girl practically tackled her 'onii-chan' but managed to remain standing after suffering such an intense blow.
Toshikazu's eyes widened and said, ”Erika!? What are you doing here?”.
The little girl in question pointed to another young man in the room how came up to them with a smile, ”Hello Toshi nii-san. Erika turned twelve several days ago so I brought her to be registered too-? Who is this you've brought with you?”.
Saber stepped forward and introduced herself, ”I am Musashi Mikazuchi, this is my nephew Takemi Mikazuchi, say hello to them Takemi”.
Giving a small bow Takemi smiled at them and said, ”Good afternoon, eh, sorry what are your names?”.
Although it appeared a little rude the young man realized he hadn't said his name and waved it off, ”Don't mind that, my name is Chiba Naotsugu, and this little lady is-”.
”I'm Chiba Erika! Your eyes are really pretty onee-san! And those swords! They look so cool! And why do you have four of them?”.
