The fight had ended incredibly quickly, a lot faster than other fights with kishin eggs England had had in the past. He wondered if that was because he was getting stronger... Or if it was Sohki who was the strong one. China was lucky to have such a meister.

England transformed back to his original form, still in his disguise, and walked over to the soul. "You're pretty incredible," he said quietly as he reached out for the glowing orb. "I've never beaten a kishin egg with someone else that rapidly."

[holy_prankster]

Releasing the hold he had on England, the kirin watched as the country advanced on the soul. Smiling pleasantly at his companion, Sohki waved the compliment off with a light laugh. "I may be blind, but I've been in my fair share of scuffles over the years," Sohki said.

Of course, his scuffles often involved the other guardians and who else was foolish enough to challenge him, even if it had been Naga more often than not. The thought amused him though, and he knew well that the dragon king's resentment towards him was partly due to the fact that Naga knew that he could never be beaten.

England smirked in response. Of course, he expected such power from a kirin. He was lucky that Sohki had agreed to go on a mission with him. He squeezed the wiggling soul once before eating it, still turned away so that Sohki did not have to see him. Well, see was not the correct word. England did not think Sohki was squeamish, but the kirin could see souls, or something. That troubled him the slightest bit.

Once England was finished, he turned around, feeling a small surge of power, one he usually felt after he'd eaten a soul. It was sad, thinking that he was basically collecting corrupted-human souls. But England's only goal now was getting stronger, no matter who he had to step on along the way. That was Prussia's motto, wasn't it? To each his own, and fuck everyone else. England's face darkened for a moment before he quickly changed the expression.

"Alright! I think we're done here."

[holy_prankster]

It didn't bother him one way or another what England did with the soul, but he knew that the countries always were about appearances and power. That was fine with him, and as his companion consumed the corrupt orb, the kirin simply watched on in amusement. Not long before arriving here the first time he had given Lamia similar advice when it came to the Holy King.

When all was said and done, Sohki's expression remained pleasantly cheerful as he regarded the Weapon. England's soul seemed to flicker with his thoughts, but the kirin didn't pry. "Then we would do best to return to Shibusen~" Sohki said before gesturing for England to take the lead.

[notexcalibur]

The country gave Sohki a light smile, radiating gratitude. And they began trudging through the sand back to the portal that led them here. "All in all, I'd say it was a decent date, yeah?"

[holy_prankster]

"Oh most definitely! One can never go wrong with a little bit of action and adventure on a date~" he said with a teasing tone. That wasn't to say that hadn't had fun. It was quite the opposite, in fact, as he'd rather enjoyed himself.

[notexcalibur]

England had also enjoyed himself. He genuinely liked working with Sohki, and liked that they had been able to defeat a kishin egg so quickly together. Every soul counted, every partner useful. Every time he was able to fight meant that he was moving towards his goal. And if he didn't have to go to those training camps to get stronger, than that just made things better for him.

If it was England's fate to remain in this world, then there was nothing he could do about it. BREW wanted to toy with him? Fine. England would fight back and become a Death Scythe just to show everyone that he was not a quitter. In the end, he would come out on top, no matter what.
