*Unlike his usual wandering around, Laharl's actually setting out from Midgard with the intention of going somewhere--Lina's place, since she
totally owes him. Naturally anyone else is free to bug him along the way.
The observant person might notice he's finally wearing
Flonne's pendant instead of carrying it around in his pocket. He's doubled up the chain so it's more like a choker and mostly hidden by his scarf... but not completely hidden.*
