There was the possibility that Wolfram had gone home from what Gwendal had said, but he wouldn't give up searching until he knew one way or another. That was the least that he could do for Wolfram, and Yuuri was just glad that he didn't have to do this by himself.

That thought caused him to smile fondly as he was reminded of Raenef. His friend had done so much for him since he arrived that the young Maou didn't think that he'd ever be able to pay him back. He would make certain that he would, though, even if he didn't know just how to do that just yet... The young Maou hoped that he'd get the answer in all due time.

Jogging out of the elevator, Yuuri made his way throughout the foyer until he pushed the doors open. His expression brightened considerably as he stepped outside and caught sight of Raenef. "Hey!" Yuuri called out as he approached, "I hope you haven't been waiting long?"

"Ah! Yuuri! No, I haven't been waiting long!" Raenef reassured him, stepping away from leaning against the wall as his friend approached once he had come outside to meet the Demon Lord, his hands coming to rest at his sides from behind his head as he too moved to close the distance and greet Yuuri. He raised a hand to give a small wave, a smile at his own lips as they met.

"Where did you want to start?" he asked, looking out to the city for a moment. It was pretty large, and they might not cover the whole thing in a day, after all. "Are there places he used to go, where we might be more likely to find him, Yuuri?"

"Thank goodness! I was hoping that I hadn't," Yuuri said in relief. After everything Raenef had done for him, the young Maou didn't want to repay his kindness with arriving late. Knowing that he hadn't definitely put his mind at ease.

Scratching at his chin at the question, Yuuri tried to remember what Wolfram had done since he'd arrived. "Neku said that he'd met Wolfram over at the basketball courts," He offered before smiling, "Should he start there?"

Raenef simply gave a smile, knowing even if he had been outside a while he probably would still have told his friend the same thing regardless. Besides, it was nice outside in the sun, if a little hot. But he was wearing light layers, so he wasn't too warm.

"The basketball courts? Sure. They're not too far, are they?" Raenef had done some exploring but he doubted he was familiar with the entire city, even after spending this long here. He really should work on that. It did make him a little uneasy, probably simply a result of growing up on the streets as part of the theif's guild, where he always knew the short cuts and exits around the area to escape capture.

"Nope! They're not far from here," The young Maou said with a large grin. The last time he'd been to the basketball court had been back when the fog had invaded the city. That was a time he didn't exactly want to remember, but he had other things to worry about.

Yuuri was about to begin heading out before he remembered his conversations with Neku. "Oh! Neku said that he'd help us look as well" Turning around to peer back into the apartment building, Yuuri then glanced up and down the street as he said, "I'm pretty sure I told him to meet us here."
