[The Pervy Sage]

[Coming from here]

Finally emerging from the depths of the underworld, Horus found himself questioning what to do next. Taking the items from his pouch, he wondered what they all meant. The radiant crystal seemed beaming with energy. What were these items really for?

Thinking of who could give answers about items that are beyond basic human knowledge, Horus's thoughts shifted to the West. The monks. The weapon bound to him now was forged though methods from a forgotten age. Maybe these items held power yet to be yielded.

Alucard approached the workshop that was located next to the river between the Threshold and Kuzuyama albeit moreso located in the latter. She was sitting behind a bench, wearing large glasses and her long hair reached the ground behind her even though she was bent forwards. Without looking up she spoke as she hammered down what appeared to be a rifle.

I don't recognize you - are you picking up someone elses order perhaps?

She then placed the hammer down and started engraving the metal cask around the wooden frame.

You must be the one they pointed me towards - i seek the most lethal weapons around, forged by shards of the moon.

Without looking up still, the woman made an annoyed grunting sound.

I'll take that as a no then, and since i haven't received a requisition from you either you'd better up your patience game because you'll have to wait for a long time. I have barely even started with the orders piled up on me.

Alucard then looked around the forge, there was clearly much more material laying around waiting to be crafted into something than there was finished pieces. It would seem like she had just started a fresh batch of weaponry after either massive order to one single person or it had been stolen. As if his suspicouns weren't already enough, he also sensed chakra footprints of the suspect Uchiha.

Lady, i'm out of time and so i'll get straight to the point and take a wild leap here. You wouldn't happen to have sold a large order to an Uchiha recently or even worse, have had a large chunk of your merchandise stolen recently?

Urged for an answer, he made sure his question was heard. The woman still didn't look up, infact she couldn't have been less bothered by the looks of it.

What of it - time heals all wounds, besides i have ambitions that stretches beyond my mortality.

..Okay i.. guess, can you atleast tell me where he went?

She put aside her work as he asked for directions and finally looked Alucard straight in the eyes.

Why should i, so you can steal from the one who stole from me in the first place? Tsk, nobody cares about me - just the work i do.. How rude. But no matter, as a means of compensation for this bullshit you'll take me with you to the Outer Lands and i just might point you in the direction of where on those cursed shores your.. Uchiha.

Alucard didn't like it, but he didn't have to. He pointed into the space next to him as to signal to her to get ready. With a lot of excitement, she grabbed her old musket and placed it on her back. This unlikely duo would then carry onwards to the west, until the ocean would great them. Luckily, it wasn't far.
