Extra chapter: Divorce baby. Divorce

The snowman shooed the white cockroaches to begin the day.

"Thanks bud." Karaza handed him a cup of grape vinegar with a cute glass straw in it.

She ate the leftover chow mein for breakfast, eyeing the room.

'There's less cockroaches now but they're still there.' She raised an eyebrow.

But that thought soon went to the back burner as her mind naturally drifted to the apiary situation.

While the lemons levitated the cups and bowl, washing them in the sink the snowman sat in Karaza's lap, trying to wrap its wooden arms around her. She patted it on its back, establishing the hug.

She started to understand its language, though she needed her powers to pickup its faint frequency.

"Why you came to the human territory anyway?" She asked, trying to decipher the answer without the lemons' help.

"You felt a radioactive tornado so ran to here for safety then got lost in the human countries."She gave him couple sympathetic pats.

She was about to enter the apiary only to hear a heated argument between many people inside so she headed naturally to the warehouse.

It was a quite and slow day, Momo searched for a task to give her but the hexagono board was empty too.

He gave her an examining look, and she blinked back.

'Yasmin and Natasha trust her, and her record is stellar so far..No harm in giving her more involved tasks.

"Well can you look for a newcomer? He's getting lost a lot. I don't think he can use his hexagono yet."

"Do I bring him here or?"

"No just give him this." He handed her something like a hexagono, an assistive map."

"Sure. What's he looks like? Any hints where he could be?"

She took the info and went to work. She felt some stupidity in the task Momo was giving her. It's better for the guy to pick it up from here instead of sending a stranger. Maybe it was Momo's way of testing her or something.

'Tall, tan man with long dark hair. Left arm broken in a cast and right eye covered with a bandage. He said he wanted to buy some necessities from a local shopping street.'

She raised her eyebrows. That was less helpful than she thought.

'A lot of people are in casts and bandages. Unlike other nations plenty of man had long hair here. And look at the blazing sun, everyone is tan...'

She took a rebalancing breath. Remembering all the times the duke gave her bonuses for fetching Antonio where ever he want.

'If I knew his voice I could locate him, but I don't.'

Faced with her limitations she walked in one of the many local shopping streets.

'This city is full of all kind shops, not even counting touristy areas...Wait!'

She speed up her pace, now with a location in mind.

Relatively in the middle of the city there stood a quirky shop. With a Japanese style gate as its entrance the shop named Ehtiyajat was papular between the newcomers, she was there before.

Beside the familiar products with Latin labels instead of Sadi the shop was the only place the sold actual medicine. Many instruction posters were on the walls as well.

'Right, I almost forgot that there's no pharmacies or apothecary in this land.' She recalled, picking up some painkillers from the shelf.

She looked at one particular colorful poster above the medicine shelf saying:

--Feeling pain? Check the closest hospital. Discount on all surgeries! (ღ✪ｖ✪) --

She didn't care much about the pro surgery propaganda, so she scanned the shop for the lost man with no success.

She scanned the numerous heads of passing people for good measure while collecting sound waves, maybe if someone was lost she would hear them asking around.

Instead she heard three familiar voices coming in her direction arguing about the holidays.

"I'm just gonna tell president your sick and I'm staying with you." Ryu told his brother.

"Won't work, she knows from father I'm alive and kicking...and doing his errands." The nameless brother let a sigh.

"I can be your excuse~ You're mine anyway." Roxy offered.

"President can't know my roommate is a girl."

The three saw her, she greeted them.

"Y'all don't look so hot." Karaza teased.

"I hate the holidays." Ryu sulked.

"I hate social norms!" Roxy pouted."

"And I hate my father." Her smoking buddy added with big bags of supplies in his hands.

"Whatcha buying~?"The surgeon looked at the painkillers with prying eyes.

"Just in case. Please don't send me to the gyno."

Her senses elevated as she picked the words 'warehouse' and 'going'. She looked back at the guy saying them. Tall, long hair, bandaged and not a stranger.

He parted with someone before feeling her strong gaze.

It wasn't obvious if her teal dress and hair made him recognize her slower or faster, but he did nonetheless.

"Kiraz!"

"Sup man!"

The three recognized the Turkish version of the word 'Cherry'. Watching them greet each other with a kiss on the cheek.

"Still don't know left from right?" She chuckled.

"Still awkward in daily things?" He jabbed back.

"So you moved here? Changed your name yet?"

"You may call me Von now." He grinned before looking at her closely. "And you look much better yourself.

She gave him his device and he waved her goodbye.

"The warehouse in the opposite direction!" She told him.

"I feel sorry for the device..." Karaza sighed while Roxy walked closer to her, curious.

"Who's that?"

"My ex."

"Your ex arch nemesis?!" She exclaimed, excited.

"No, a normal ex."

"Oh...You're a human that do human things after all."

"And why are you disappointed?"

"Not at all! So? Who cheated on who? Did you set his clothes on fire?!" Roxy asked, ready for the girl talk.

"Nah, his master--previous master stopped working with main so we had to part."

"...Boring. Wait I thought in the dukedom you can't be in a relationship unless it's marriage?"

"Yeah we did that."

"Which means..You're divorced now?"

"I guess?"

Roxy pouted, doing some serious calculations.

'What's with her?' She thought.

'She's upset that you're divorced and she's not.' Ryu came to the rescue.

'Wait, you can hear thoughts?'

'Some people only, I activated an ancient artifact. It called itself the introvert communication system.'

'What does introvert mean?'

'Beats me.'

"You have three husbands and you're mad I have a divorce?" Karaza murmured.

"Yes! You're divorced and I'm not! I shall not let that slide!"

"Tell me more about you're husbands kiddo~" The surgeon asked with a smile, hexagono in his hand ready to report underage marriage.

"Well my first husband is Sir Issac Newton. My second is Alexander the great. Last but not least is Ishigami Sinku!"

'Two dead guys and...who's the last poor one.' Karaza asked herself and Ryu by extension.

'He's the hero in a manga. He's the best!' Ryu supplied enthusiastically.

'So she doesn't have more bitches than me...YES!'

The surgeon let a relived sigh when he saw the three made up marriage contracts with stickers and washi tape on them.

"Sorry boys, gotta divorce one of y'all." Roxy looked at the papers.

"Divorce Newton!" Ryu put his head on her left shoulder. Whispering devilishly.

"I love New-kun!" She sulked.

"Can't divorce Alexander, he'll take it personally and invade us." He continued the evil advisor role.

"You're right...Well then Senku chan, forgive me." She wrote 'divorced' on their contract with a glittery pen.

'Damn it!!' Ryu frowned.

'You hate the calculus guy?' The introvert asked.

'He's fine...but, the cardboard cutout of him...The foldable cardboard cutout of him that she hugs at night is not.'

'... I see. Well good luck then, you're not getting rid of him.'

He sulked in despair.

She joined them for more errands. Ryu was was still on his mission.

"Divorce another guy, so you acquire more divorces than her. Your glorious arch nemesis shall be defeated."

"Nah, I'm content with a tie right now."

'Tsk..'

The two human adults organized the bags in a caddy.

"So you can pull hotties when you're not moping about your guy." Her smoking buddy joked.

"I surprise myself sometimes." She chuckled but something in her gaze darkened.

He recalled what she advised him days prior.

'Don't get with somebody to forget, huh?'

The four walked into another shop.
