"A tavern?" Utena looked at the town out beyond the forest. Remembering what a tavern was she looked back to the man. "They're called hotels here." Though they weren't technically the same thing that was the closest Marth would get to a tavern in this town. As for Doomsday, Utena shuddered at the thought of it returning to life now that Superwoman was gone. They barely got rid of it with her present, she didn't want to think what would happen if it returned with her gone. "Its return is unlikely. It died in the battle also."

"Oh...Well, hotels would work just the same I suppose...But first I think I should find a nice little bar and have my fill of some booze, would you like to join me?" He asks, frowning when she told him that the creature had died as well. "It died? Well, I suppose I'll just have to wait around for something else to come along and try to destroy something...I could really use a good fight, I've been getting quite rusty." He nods to himself, chuckling to himself as he takes another look around the area. "I'm not allowed to spar with humans...They break much too easily apparently." He shrugs, tilting his head to the side, pulling the sucker stick from his mouth, placing the wrapping around it to save for a garbage can somewhere.

Utena winkled her nose when Marth asked if she wanted to join him at a bar. "I'm fourteen." They wouldn't give her any alcohol even if she wanted to get hammered and after seeing a couple of people fall over, vomit and act like complete idiots after getting drunk she wouldn't want any to begin with but it's not like she had anything better to do. There was something way off about this guy and she wouldn't be able to sleep knowing he was wandering about until she could confirm to herself that he wasn't any threat to the people here. "But I suppose they'd have non-alcoholic drinks as well so sure. I'll join you. It should be at the end of the road past the bottom of this hill."

The demon stopped, staring at her, seeming to be highly confused by what she had just said, one brow rising up slowly. "Fourteen?? Seriously? Could've sworn you were older than that...How odd." He shrugs, walking on once more, grinning to himself. "Well, how about ice cream then? EVERYONE likes ice cream! Er...Unless you're lactose intolerant. Then I just feel bad for you." He began to look around, watching how the others would watch him, watching how the soldiers tensed up at the mere sight of the demon, their hands going toward their weapons. The girl hadn't been kidding about how the people were, who could blame them? TWO villains in one go? That's just bad luck...Or you're in some odd anime...Or on Power Rangers.
He looks at the bar now, taking time to turn and look at the surrounding area, taking note of where every alley is and how cluttered they were. The rubble from the buildings and various other objects seemed to catch his attention, keeping in mind of anything that would be flammable. "Does this sort of thing happen often in this land? The attacks, I mean." He turns to the girl now, staring down at her, the crimson orbs seeming to brighten a little as he starts to smirk once more.

"Well, I'm, mature for my age." More like maturely drawn for her age but who was keeping count? Utena followed the man into the city lacking any substance of cheer even when ice cream was mentioned. "No thanks." For some of the villagers it was deja vu all over again as Utena had followed a strange looking man around town before and that didn't end so well either. It made her wonder just exactly what this place thought of her by now and that was without knowing she was behind all those killings.
At his next question Utena thought for a moment, remembering what Chloe had told her about what she knew of this place. Asides from Jherrazad, Utena hasn't wandered too far away from Moon Valley since she first arrived here. Didn't have much reason too and it was disappointing the angel of death played them all like fools in hopes she would be freed as she never knew how to get them back home in the first place (at least that's what Chloe said after attaining Kasul). "To my understanding yes. Ever since an event called the "Battle for Aircano" there has been an increase in conflicts not just here but all over the continent. I don't know much about this world as a whole though."

"Hm...Well, perhaps we should head inside for now..I seem to be making all these soldiers nervous. It wouldn't be pleasant if they tried to start a fight now." He says, opening the door to allow Utena to enter first, smirking still. "Perhaps we'll just have a few drinks first, I think some water would help with my thirst...Perhaps a lot of it." He chuckles to himself, his eyes moving to stare at the various soldiers that seemed to line up, the others still at the ready with their weapons. "I do wonder if they've fought a demon before...Perhaps they would have a special squad for that...Oh how fun would that be?"

Utena said nothing in response and simply walked into the hotel. He sure did chuckle a lot that's for sure. When she entered the bar and sat in one of the many stools found at the front she spoke up before the bartender could ask for ID. "Water, sir. I just want water." The bartender just nodded and smiled before pouring Utena a glass of water. It looked like he was happy to just have a building left standing after everything that's went on let alone business and judging by the crowd he had no shortage of that any time soon. It looked like many people decided to come here in an attempt to wash away their sorrow with booze. Utena thanked him for the glass of water and had a sip before she looked over at Marth. "So where do you come from?"

The demon would motion for two waters, stopping the bartender with a smirk. "If you could...Bring me Absinthe. Thank you." He turns to Utena when she asks about where he was from, tilting his head to the side just a bit. Would she know what he would be talking about? For all he knew, he could possibly be stuck on an entirely different world...Though there wasn't much of a problem with that, he could easily find a demon that could use portals...Though they always seemed to charge quite a bit.
The bartender would return with their drinks, setting down a bottle next to Marth, as well as a few sugar cubes, an odd little spoon in the shape of a leaf and a tree cut out in the middle. He then goes to set down a lighter, the demon pushed it back toward him, smirking. "Thank you but I have my own." The man would nod and return to the others at the counter, the crimson eyes turn to the pink-haired girl once more. "I'm from Japan...On Earth...Er, that is...If this isn't Earth. If it is, well then...At least you'd probably know what I'm talking about. Though I've been alive for quite a while, back then compared to now seems like a whole different world in on itself."
He grabs the bottle and a shotglass, setting the spoon on top of the small glass, then the sugar cube on that. He pours in the dark, sticky liquid onto the cube and into the glass. With a snap of his fingers, a flame was conjured to the tip of his index finger, lighting the cube ablaze. He watched with slight excitement as the cube of sugar seemed to melt and caramelize into the liquid below it. He blows it out and removes the spoon, raising the glass to the girl and a few others. He was slightly sorry for their loss...He knew what it was like to to have his home destroyed. He drinks down the black liquid, the smell of black licorice spilling out from his mouth when he exhales. "What about you, Utena?"

Utena's eyes perked up when he mentioned where he came from. "Japan?" This would make the second person from Japan she's met that didn't come from Ohtori. It was just her luck too. With a sad look on her face she washed down another gulp of water before placing the glass back down on the bar table. "I'm from Japan too. I attended Ohtori Academy but I doubt you ever heard of it." Was probably for the best too. If his reply was anything having to do with the fact she came from an Anime she would go ballistic on everyone in this room, including him. Judging by what she knew so far he'd probably enjoy that but she definitely wouldn't.
"They call this planet Genesis but it might as well be earth. There aren't that many differences here aside from what we gathered as mere superstition is more commonly known and accepted here. Back on earth people had more of a luxury not to believe in demons." It was hard for anyone to deny their existence in a place where they were so commonplace if they weren't trying to kill you they were living alongside you like everyone else here. Or ruling over you, in Jherrazad's case. "The people here don't have that luxury."

The demon took a few more shots while the girl talked, taking a rather large gulp straight from the bottle, wincing as he did. He sets the bottle down, still making an odd face as he pushes it away, staring at the glass of water, taking it and drinking it down, spewing out some steam afterwards. "Well, that does sound quite familiar...I can't quite place where I've heard of it though...But it is nice to see someone else from Japan." He smiles once more, leaning back a little. "Thank you...By the way, for helping me out back there...Not a lot of people are willing to help a demon."

He couldn't place where he heard Ohtori before. Good. Because Utena doubt that there were any demons in that school so the only alternative was her life is a show where he came from also. Then again of all the things that happened in that school a demon wouldn't be that far-fetched would it? Speaking of demons. "Keep it down!" whispered Utena. "We are among those people after all." Utena looked around to see if anyone overheard Marth's words but it looked like they were all too busy being distracted by their own lives to notice what those around them were saying. "And don't mention it. Even demons deserve to know what's going on when all of existence is slowly crumbling down around them."

He looked around to the others, turning back to her with a shrug. "Well, not to be rude or anything..but I could torch this place to the ground before half of the people could arm themselves...But the small amount of help is truly appreciated." He smiles to the girl and pours himself another few shots, drinking them down with another small wince, his cheeks becoming a little flush finally as he pushes the bottle away once more. "How long have you been here? If you don't mind me asking, that is."

"Too long." Came her immediate response as she started to put a number on her time here. She first came here in August, that's when everything she knew became broken and her hold on reality was plummeting out of control leading to the death of several different families in Moon Valley before she isolated herself in the forest area. And since it was going on March that would have made it...
"Six months." Has that much time passed? Before she knew it she would have been stuck in this place a year. To think so much has happened and she only wandered out of Moon Valley the one time to go to Jherrazad. "Time flies when you're having fun," said Utena sarcastically.

"Oh? Six months? That's not very long...But I'm sure it's felt like forever to you, hmm?" He reaches into his pocket and pulls out more candy, picking out a grape flavored piece, unwrapping it and placing it into his mouth. "It's funny how much can happen in a short amount of time." The crimson eyes looked elsewhere around the bar area, looking over to Utena. "You know a good place to eat?"

"Depending on who you are a lot can happen in just 24 hours. Even more can happen in 1.3632592."
This time Utena would take a rather large gulp of her water in an attempt to drown out her sorrows but by the looks of it it just wasn't the same if it weren't booze. She would have to find a way to manage though for as tempting as it was to steal some she knew it would be far from worth the effort.
"Only good place I know where to eat would be the Razor's Edge. A night club that a lot of the high school crowd tends to flock at but it's only open at nights. They should have some food here you can take a look at if you ask for a menu."
