A Tale After Four Lives 55 Chapter 55: The Four Tokens

Yasaka lowered her head as she said this, she was clearly embarra.s.sed about having this man take so much influence over the Yokai from her and to make it worse she is now resorting to asking for help from outside.

"So it's an internal problem," Lambert said as he frowned, he didn't mind helping Yasaka, but he found it a bit out of place for him to meddle in their affairs...without good reason.

"Yes, I know it's asking much, please don't mind and just pretend I didn't mention anything"

Yasaka said thinking that she was making it difficult for Lambert after seeing hi frown.

"No, it's not a problem to help you, it's just I have to come up with a plausible excuse"

Lambert said as he smiled at Yasaka, her face looked black for a moment before she returned his smile while giggling.

"Fufufu, if that's the case what do you have in mind Lambert-san," Yasaka asked as she leaned over the table and proper her head with her hand and resting her elbow on the table, staring at Lambert with her beautiful golden eyes.

"Mhhh..." Lambert hummed as he rubbed his beard in a sagely way. "...I have no idea."

Yasaka's head nearly slipped from her hand and fell when she heard his reply. She was now staring at Lambert with wide eyes while he was still pa.s.sing as a sage.

Lambert eventually stopped with his antics and became serious. Taking something from his pocket he slid it over towards Yasaka.

"This should suffice, if you run into any trouble you can use that and Samsara will send someone to help you."

Yasaka stared at the token with interest, it was made out of a strange kind of stone, imprinted with the image of a mountain range on it, and aura of unspeakable ancientness drifted around it making the air feel so heavy and causing normal humans to feel it hard to breathe in its presence.

"Someone, will this person know about me and..."

"No need to worry, Lady Yasaka. This token will work and the one that will answer its summons will be knowledgable about you and your situation. I will be frank with you, this token is one of four, the blood-red scourge token, which I presume you are familiar with Cleria..." Lambert said

Cleria had been keeping her eyes glued on the stone token since its appearance only snapping out of her daze when she heard Lambert ask her a question, to which she took out a blood-red token, it had a feeling of unconvinced resentment and mourning surrounding it. Yasaka was taken aback when she saw the token and imprinted on one side was the head of a dragon.

"Yes, that would be the scourge token, the token of Mournomon, this is another token then there is this one..."

Lambert took out another Token, it was pure white with a golden rim at the side while the insignia of a templars cross appeared in its center.

"...this is my token, the last one I cannot show you as I do not have one on me. These tokens are what we of Samsara use as gifts to friends or as business transactions, it has the ability to call on the owner of the token by injecting a little bit of energy into it, the owner needs only answer it and he will be summoned to the holder's side."

Lambert patiently explained.

"Mournomon said that I can only use this in Kuoh town and it had a limited range"

Cleria suddenly said in confusion.

"He lied, most probably as to not have to worry about appearing too far from where he was staying."

Lambert said with a light smile but inside he was trying his hardest not to laugh his a.s.s off at the expression Cleria was currently making.

'If somebody was scanning me with a bulls.h.i.t meeter at this time it might have just gone over 9000, hahaha'. Lambert thought

Yasaka stared at the token then turned her head to Cleria and asked,

"What happened when you used your token?"

"I poured some manna into it and it glowed brightly for a second next thing I knew Mournomon was standing in front of me."

Cleria said while recalling what happened, then shuddered when she recalled Mournomon thrashing the exorcists and reincarnation the devils he ran over as 'Dragon-kun', she then immediately expelled any thought of getting revenge with at Mournomon for lying to her and making her appear like a fool...for now.

Yasaka thought for a moment before asking Lambert a question in a low voice,

"Is this a gift or do I need to do something for you in return Lambert-san"

Yasaka finished her sentence and then looked at Lambert with a suggestive expression on her face.

"This is, of course, a gift, the owner of this token has been wanting to meet you for some time now, I do wonder if you will recognize him thought"

Lambert said as he smiled secretively, which made Yasaka wonder who it is that she would be summoning.

"Are you sure he will be willing to help me?" Yasaka asked, she didn't want to summon someone that will ignore her when she most desperately needed the help.

"Well, if she refuses just tell him you'll give him a kiss, I'm sure he'll agree right away"

Lambert said teasingly, but some people didn't find it funny as Aura's head immediately swung in lamberts direction and gave him a look that held a lot of meaning, sadly Lambert didn't speak face and thus ignored Aura's illiterate way of speaking. She of course became even more furious seeing him ignore her.

Masaomi has been silent the whole time but inside he was secretively trying to figure out how he could get his hands on Lambert's token and use it to ask Lambert to train him.

Tosca fell asleep some time ago and was now using Lambert's lap as a pillow while holding him tightly, her face was full of bliss, her dreams full of peace.

Riwuccu remained silent, he did not think there was a need to give his opinion thought he was certainly craving one of those tokens for himself, just thinking what knowledge he could gain from the person he summoned left him drooling with desire.

Lambert was patting himself on the back inside his head, he not only gave an excuse to introduce another him to Yasaka but might even be able to set the two up. Even for him who has lived almost an eternity, Yasaka's appearance and mannerism could only be summed up into two words, MUST HAVE.

'Strange never thought of myself as possessive', Lambert thought.' Now to give her his name'.

"Ah, by the way, the persons name is..."
