Fired?

[Deleted]

Clark searched through the castle for Namari. Ever since Phillis' death, he hadn't been sure whether or not his job of protecting Dante would remain or if he would be laid off.

He sighed, and took a seat in the great hall. He smoked for a moment, and then stopped so nobody would catch and scold him.

[Namari Lovelle]

Namari walked down the halls alone, a smile on her face. She was finally alone. Since she was in the castle, the servants and guards decided that it was safe enough to walk around alone. Namari couldn't understand why. She still had her claymore on her back, and her sword at her hip.

Entering the great hall, she spotted a familiar face. She raised an eyebrow as she approached him. "Hello Clark. What brings you here?" she stopped in-front of him as she asked.

[Deleted]

"Ah, Namari, don't you look wonderful?" He asked with a smirk on his face, upon seeing her more feminine appearance. "I heard you became queen. Congratulations. Though, I think the role of a goddess would suit you better."

[Namari Lovelle]

Namari couldn't help but blush. She smirked, then rolled her eyes. "Oh please, Clark. I still love Steele. What do you need?"

[Deleted]

"I came to see where I stand in this castle. Still employed, or do you no longer need my services?"

[Namari Lovelle]

"I have no use for a private body guard for Dante, I apologize Clark," Namari frowned, running a hand through her hair. She fixed her crown, before continuing, "You normally only work as a body guard, so i don't suspect I can hire you as a regular guard, hmm?"

[Deleted]

Clark shrugged his shoulders. "I suppose you could, but I'm only experienced with one-on-one. You may be taking a risk. Although, it wouldn't take long for me to adjust, I suppose." he laughed a bit. "It's up to you really. I may not be the best choice though."

[Namari Lovelle]

"We always need more people on the force. It's all in what you wish to do, my friend," Namari smiled.

[Deleted]

"Well, I'll love to do anything that gets me closer to you, my queen." Clark smirked at her.

[Namari Lovelle]

Namari rolled her eyes once more, "You may be a guard, then. Don't be creating trouble. You can get guard supplies near the training grounds."

[Deleted]

"Oh, I wouldn't dream of creating any trouble for you. I can promise you that I will help to protect this castle with every fiber of my being. I will not let you down."

He gently grabbed her hand, lightly kissing the top and then smiled up at her. "Hmm? Who knows? Maybe you just need a little bit of extra time to fall in love with me~"

[Namari Lovelle]

"Like I said. I still love Steele. And that won't change any time soon," Namari raised an eyebrow and smirked, lightly pulling her hand away.

[Deleted]

Clark laughed once again. "Play hard to get? Alright. I'll play along." he joked.

But then he became serious once again. "How many guards does this castle have anyways?"

[Namari Lovelle]

"Quite a lot," Namari thought for a moment, before continuing, "At least 200. They patrol the castle and the city, along with our borders sometimes."

[Deleted]

Clark nodded in approval. At least they had quite a few. "Well, I'll see to it that I still become the very best~" He said. He liked to make a competition of things. It became more interesting to him that way.It helped him improve himself.

[Namari Lovelle]

Namari smiled, shaking her head, "If you get good enough, maybe Roland or one of the other knights will recommend for you to become a knight!"

[Deleted]

Clark thought the idea. It wasn't half bad. "I'll do my best to impress everyone then." he said with a smile. "especially you."

[Namari Lovelle]

"Good luck with that," Namari smirked once more, placing a hand on her hip.
