Eric #1
The access to the Champagne city itself was tricky, as they had to sail on the river into the inland and then get pass two marine fortresses, that were guarding the entry. Fortunately, after long debate, Eric and Gabriel came up with a crazy yet doable plan that was counting with the fact that Eric´s name was still largely unknown in the world. So they pulled down their flag and masked themselves as a traveling martial arts instructors that were intending to open their Dojo on Silver Island.
When reporting to the guards, Eric presented himself as Lee Sin, master of the Imperial Tiger Fist, with Gabriel and Michael playing the roles of assistant instructors and the remaining crew members their students and servants. Surprisingly it passed really easy, after Eric put a quick show in which he was breaking bricks and other hard objects with his fists to great amusement of the gathered nobles and marine soldiers alike. Ferus even went the extra step and forged special instructor diploma and authorization from their fictional martial arts school to start their own dojo.
Once the initial charade finished, they led Demon in the port, whey all the crewmen awaited Eric´s orders.
“Are you sure that he is here?”
Eric asked Gabriel who was standing next to him for a probably fifth time in this week.
“Yes Eric, I told you already, there were no other ships on the Cactus Island, so if you don´t believe that the assassin was able to swim all the way from another island, he had to travel with that hunting party from here.”
Eric nodded.
“Alright, how much time we have?”
This time, his question was aimed at Sarah.
“Well”
She scratched her head.
“I ran some test on Hana and changed her medication accordingly. It allowed me to slow down the progression of her condition, so right now she have somewhere between two to three months.”
Two to three months, that wasn´t really that much time for their plan to work, but still better than nothing.
“Did you managed to contact your friends?”
Gabriel sighed.
“Yes, they gave me contact on one...information broker that should be located on this island, but...”
“But?”
Eric raised his eyebrow in a gesture of impatience.
“It looks like that she have some problems with dealing with men...”
Five pairs of eyes suddenly turned towards Anya.
“Alright, that´s not such a big problem actually.”
Said Eric.
“If that´s the case, Anya and Sarah will go to that broker of yours, while the rest of us will head to the city center to get all the necessary papers to start our Dojo. Gabe, give the girls all the information they need, Michael, instruct the remaining crewmen that until ordered otherwise they will stay on the ship, no exception.”
With that being said, Eric left the cabin which belonged to the officers for his own.
