true giant

Finally, Umbra speaks. "I see."

"Well, thank you for letting us know. We have our weapons, but Maria... does not. We'd need to rectify that for a foe such as he."

"For now, I suppose we should count our blessings. May I ask where you hail from, sir? We'll keep an eye out for this Guy of yours, and let you know if we hear anything."

"In any case, with how everyone is...he won't pay attention to you at all."

Meaning everyone might be took weak for his notice, but thankfully he would say, that there was nothing of that demon in the city. otherwise there would be no city at all to be had.

"The holy void, the barren wastelands. Most likely you would have never heard of it."

A pause.

"Mm." Maria looks down at her drink. "Yeah, I think we'd need some better guns for that." The BB gun on her holster wouldn't be enough for whoever that was.

Umbra looks up at the mention of spells. "Pardon, but is this 'Guy' in the city with you?"

A pause.

"Perhaps, but if he was here, would there still be a city? most likely not."

Dagruel...smiles.

"I can see that, yes." Umbra rubs her chin. She has to wonder how healthy that is...

Maria takes Dagrael's words as a warning. Pearl lowers her purse, looking less embarrassed. They may not look like it, but all four of them had taken on monsters, men, and gods alike.

Had a moment where something had crossed his face, some emotion that was...certainly not the laid back look he's been giving the whole time. but it passed for a second only.

When Dagrael calls over a barrel of booze, the little dragon is quickly forgotten. Maria raises her root beer glass, while Pearl raises her eyebrows, stunned.

"Now that's a hearty drink!" says Maria. "All for you, big guy?"

Pearl leans over and asks her friend, "Maria, how do you know this man? He's so, um..." The words escape her right now. She holds her purse a little closer to her face.

Wrong wording but you get the jist of it. After all first timers adapt, and she felt comfortable enough to start drinking as well. Though it must be the presence of friends here. a bit odd that there were conveinetly two of them at the same time. was it a permanent thing?

the little dragon, not one to be forgotten had begun to lap out some of the alcohol in his mug.

Chuuya could do this too, probably, but in a different way -- picking up a car is easy for someone who can manipulate gravity. But this guy seemed to be doing it just due to his raw strength.

"Did you seriously just pick up that truck, dude? Couldn't you have gotten whatever you needed out the regular way?"

Man, what a showoff.

"I could have, but this was much faster." a giant, means being strong, Stronger then any human can naturally be. being superior to the humans physically at the very least. the truck was returned back into position, the slight strain it took...

Another night on the town with her posse is a good night in Maria's books. She knows they don't have long in Spirale, so she's determined to make the most of their time.

Between shots of root beer, Maria spots a familiar giant across the room. She smiles at him and raises her glass, inviting him to pull up a chair.

"Hey, look who it is!" she says. "It looks like you brought a friend with you." She tips her hat to the green dragon on Dagruel's shoulder. Who knew they allowed pets?

"Cute! Reminds me of my horse," says the woman with green makeup and a green flower in her hair. "Where'd you pick 'em up? And what's their name?" She twirls her hair at the reptile.

The redhead seems more surprised by the — lizard? gator? — than the other three. The woman with the white hair quietly sips her drink.

"He has no name yet, but one would never know. Perhaps I'll learn in time. but as far as I understand..."

He gives a giant shake of his shoulders. muscles rippling.

"Barkeep, the usual."

"Well, then I'll make sure not to pry too hard into your secrets and leave them be."

"Oh-" She mutters out with a slight hum, now realizing how rude she's been.

but he can't afford to be picky about allies.

"Dagruel, though my alias is Earthquake, you'd best not invoke my wrath? Haha, I'm joking."

"aw. was it something i said ? i mean no offense," hands raise defensively, shaking back and forth. "i simply wished to jab a bit of fun."

did he ? not really. passive comments were his favorite.

He looks like a giant of a man, but he is indeed in fact a giant. but he won't expound on that considering that Dagruel would like this vacation to be more relaxing.

"uh huh , uh huh !" he nods. he doesn't have a clue what the man is talking about. he listens to krul talk and talk about the most meaningless things all the time, but at the very least he benefited from it in the longer run. "hey, did you ever think about forgetting all that mess of overthinking ? less worries to concern yourself with if you just forget it all !"

indirectly he calls Ferid a dumb head, a stupid forgetful absent minded person, though in truth he had a close friend who looked like that, but was the strongest demon lords out there. dagruel doesn't , actually doesn't care for mixing words.

Yet, her eyebrows knit when he mentions having no responsibilities or any due diligence. Another fair point, yet it that was something that had been a very hard thing to accept while she was stuck on the ship as well.

So, she decides to let that topic be for now, wanting to move on from it as she looks towards him again.

there were far more new places to explore, and most stores were gone now. time passes fast for humans, and mortals and he didn't know how much longer he had been gone.

"I will have to keep that in mind for me to 'enjoy' the city with. On the ship, I never ate much of the food since I tried to mostly stay out of the crews way.. But given that isn't something I need to do now..."

"It is a brand new way to relax, I suppose with all the festivities happening everywhere. No responsibilities, no due diligience needed." Dagruel listing off everything that can make a person happy, perhaps.
