[all_that_glitters]

It's only the truth, unless you're the original.

[fortuneforyourdisaster]

I see this isn't a unique problem then.

[all_that_glitters]

Far from it. It's remarkably unsurprising by now.

[fortuneforyourdisaster]

So how about you? The original or the fake?

[all_that_glitters]

The original, of course. From my radiance alone you should be able to judge that, lowlife.

[fortuneforyourdisaster]

[Something just clicked in his brain.]

You wouldn't be a king, would you?

[all_that_glitters]

Shouldn't that be obvious? I am the King of Heroes.

[fortuneforyourdisaster]

Quite the title. Afraid it doesn't translate well as I wasn't aware there was a nation of heroes.

[all_that_glitters]

Oh, it isn't the only thing I'm the King of. Anything I desire enters my domain.

[fortuneforyourdisaster]

Oh? That's quite the trick.

[all_that_glitters]

I wouldn't call it a "trick". It's simply the way of things -- the world is my garden.

[fortuneforyourdisaster]

My, then why don't you tell me about the garden you've grown here. If his highness desires, that is.

[all_that_glitters]

It's one that's been quite neglected. Its caretakers were truly incompetent.

[fortuneforyourdisaster]

It seems new people come in often enough. A competent one or two might come in eventually.

[all_that_glitters]

Most of them have been only common garbage. It's rare indeed for me to even consider someone competent.

[fortuneforyourdisaster]

Humor me. What qualities are you looking for?

[There's got to be one or two Exorcists that could fit the bill.]

[all_that_glitters]

Mainly, for someone to impress me. It's difficult to do.

[fortuneforyourdisaster]

That does seem the tall order. May you find someone that can fit the bill.

[all_that_glitters]

That's what I hope for.

[... eying, thoughtful. 8|a]

Do you have the same tricks as the other one?

[fortuneforyourdisaster]

The core of it should be the same. His circumstances are a bit different now so I'm not sure how much that will affect it.

And how much has he told you about these tricks?

[all_that_glitters]

[ssigh.]

Not so much "told" as "showed". You'd probably just be as aggravating to fight, then.

[fortuneforyourdisaster]

You sound disappointed.

[all_that_glitters]

I was contemplating killing you.

[fortuneforyourdisaster]

[He laughs at that.]

Were you now? Did I show disrespect to his Majesty in some way?

[all_that_glitters]

Not in specific. But I don't really have a reason not to.
