A/N: And here is the next chappie!! Yay! Yahoooooooo!! I'm sooooo happy coz I finally get to read all of the Tsubasa mangas soon! But anyway, here's the next installation!

The Stoic Maou and the Wimpy Sanzo Priest?

Tenjiku

"Where is the Sanzo-ikkou now, Ni?" Gyoukumen Kousho asked the deranged former Sanzo. Ni Jen Yi just smiled.

"They are continuing to the west as usual, Gyoukumen Kousho-sama, but you see, there are minor changes."

"And what are those?"

"It seems that our Sanzo-ikkou had lost their Sanzo… and they are now traveling with a black haired kid."

"WHAAAAT?!" Gyoukumen Kousho thundered. WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?!"

"I don't know either, Gyoukumen Kousho-sama. It seems like the gods have interfered."

"How can you not know?! Get out of my sight and call Kougaiji in here."

"As you wish." Kougaiji then entered.

"What do you want now, bitch?" Kougaiji hotly demanded. Gyoukumen smiled.

"Oh, Kougaiji… Is that a way to talk to your stepmother?"

"What the hell do you want?" Kougaiji asked again, ignoring his stepmother's words.

"I want you to find out where Sanzo had disappeared to and who the black haired kid is. If he turns out to be someone powerful or someone that will aid them, I want you to kill him. Is that clear?"

"Whatever." Kougaiji stomped out of the room. He then met Yaone, Dokugakuji, and Lirin.

"The bitch wants us to do something again. It seems like Sanzo disappeared, and a black haired kid stood in his place."

"What are our orders, Kou?" Dokugakuji asked.

"It's to find out who that kid is and also where Sanzo is. Also, if the kid is someone powerful, she wants us to kill him."

"Do you also want to find out if the Sanzo-ikkou has the sutra, Kougaiji-sama?" Yaone spoke up.

"… I don't know. She didn't say anything about it. Might as well do."

"Okay then!" But Lirin pulled Kougaiji's shirt.

"What about me, Onii-chan?" Lirin asked expectantly.

"You'll stay here." Kougaiji said while patting Lirin's head. Lirin pouted.

"But I'm old and strong enough to defend myself! Besides, I get sooo bored here, so pleeeeease? Pretty please?" Lirin begged and pleaded, aided with cute little child eyes. Kougaiji sighed. Children's cute eyes are much too hard to resist.

"Fine, fine… You can come, but don't get too feisty, okay?"

"Yay!" They then walked out of the castle and rode on the flying dragons to go to where the Sanzo-ikkou was staying at.

Tenkai

"Uh-oh. I smell trouble, Jiroushin." Kanzeon Bosaetsu told her henchman/servant or whatever he is.

"Kanzeon Bosaetsu! You should bring the Maou back to his own world now or he will be harmed! We can't afford to have a king from another world to get hurt!"

The goddess with a passion for anything fun rolled her eyes. "Relax, Jiroushin. I've carefully planned out my fun. Don't spoil it, ne?" She then began to laugh evilly.

Jiroushin sighed. "Well, at least give the Maou a method to defend himself. You can remove that spell you cast on him that disables him to use his maryoku."

"Whatever. It won't be fun if there isn't a challenge. I have a different plan in mind."

Jiroushin sweat dropped. "And what would that be…?"

Kanzeon smiled slyly. "You'll see."

Togenkyou

"Achooooo!" Goku and Gojyo echoed. Hakkai stifled a laugh.

"Seriously 'Kai, why did you have to tie us to a tree? To be honest I prefer the monk's harisen…" Gojyo remarked disdainfully while sniffing.

"Well, that's what you get if you two don't behave." Hakkai answered, all the while the eternal smile plastered upon his face. "And it seems like putting some blankets on you didn't do any good…" Hakkai added while laughing.

"I really don't like your method of disciplining…" Gojyo said, pretending to shiver. Hakkai and Yuuri laughed.

"You guys are so much fun!" Yuuri remarked with a laugh. "Anyway, when are we going to continue west?"

"Hmmm, I don't know." Hakkai answered thoughtfully while rubbing his chin. "To be quite honest, we haven't earned enough yet, so we have to stay for a bit longer." He looked at the clock. "Anyway, it's almost time for work. Since you two aren't in any position to work today, I suggest you get some sleep, okay? Call me if you need anything. Lunch is in the fridge, just heat it up. I'll see you boys later." With that said, Hakkai and Yuuri went out the house, leaving two sniffing idiots behind.

"I'd rather be smacked upside down the head by Sanzo's harisen…" Goku remarked contemptuously while sniffing.

"Me too." Gojyo agreed. "Achoo!"

Shin Makoku

"Well, don't you think we should at least let him assume the responsibilities of the Maou? If heika comes back, he's gonna have piles and piles of paperwork." Günter was discussing what to do with Sanzo with Gwendal.

"I don't know. He doesn't seem like the guy who has experience with paperwork, and if he doesn't do it right it can create a bigger mess. Besides, he has that metal thing that looks like it can pierce through our body." Gwendal thoughtfully said.

"Then we must teach him the ways of Shin Makoku! He cannot stay here without adapting to our culture… I'm sure he'll be pretty submissive… At least, I think so."

"…Fine. We'll let Conrart train him when he gets back this afternoon." Gwendal then went out of his office and went to find Sanzo.

Togenkyou

Hmmm, that looks like the Smith and Wesson gun Sanzo uses. Hakkai thought to himself while passing by a stall on his way home. He decided to go near the stall and look at the gun. "Excuse me, is this a Smith and Wesson gun used to kill demons?" Hakkai asked the stall owner.

"Why yes. You must be pretty adept with guns to know what it's called." The stall owner remarked kindly with a smile.

"How much is it?"

"It's two hundred dollars." The man said.

"I'll take it." When he got home, he was relieved to find Yuuri and the two idiots.

"Welcome home." The three said in unison.

"Thanks. Oh, Yuuri, I bought something for you. I figured you might need it for self defense."

When Yuuri saw it he went bug-eyed. "A gun? What would I need this for?"

"You'll use it so that when demons attack you on your way home so you'll be able to defend yourself."

Yuuri took the gun and examined it. "It is a real gun! But I don't know how to use it, unless it's the same thing they do in action movies…"

"I don't know how to either, but I've observed Sanzo enough that I think I can give it a try." Hakkai said while taking the gun from Yuuri. He pointed it outside the window and shot. A small thud was heard on the ground, then running footsteps, then silence. "Oh dear. I think I've hit something." Hakkai remarked with a smile. They then ran down to look what fell, and to their surprise it was a demon!

"Well, well, well, our friends from the west decided to send assassins once again." Gojyo remarked sarcastically while kicking the dead demon.

"So those running footsteps earlier must have belonged to his allies. All the more for you to be careful, Yuuri-kun."

"I'll try to learn it quickly, Hakkai-san."

Tenkai

"Kanzeon Bosaetsu! Thisis your idea of 'self-defense'? The kid doesn't even know how to use a gun! This is madness!" Jiroushin protested, exasperated.

"Relax, Jiroushin." Kanzeon Bosaetsu said with a yawn. "Do you seriously think you could get a banishing gun from anywhere? I purposely put that stall over there so that dear little Tenpou would pass by it and buy the gun for the cute little Maou. I've planned everything out."

"But Kanzeon Bosaetsu!"

Kanzeon stuck her little finger in her ear. "Whatever, Jiroushin. Just watch and stay quiet for once, will yah?"

Still Togenkyou, a section in the forest far from the Sanzo-ikkou's inn

"You mean to say Sanzo has come back?" Kougaiji asked the demon who reported back to him.

"I'm pretty positive, Kougaiji-sama. One of our men fell because he was shot from the inside of the inn. We quickly ran here to tell you the news."

"You didn't even look? What if that wasn't Sanzo?!" Kougaiji thundered.

"You did say that Sanzo was the only one with the gun in the group, right? So I figured that should be good enough."

Kougaiji calmed down. "Hn. I guess you're right. Get out of my sight, and when you appear before me again be sure to have the sutra."

"Yes, Kougaiji-sama."

Shin Makoku

"WHAT THE HELL?! I AM NOT ABOUT TO SIGN PAPERWORK!" Sanzo's shouting voice thundered across the hallway.

"But you have to understand that we are letting you stay here, so might as well assume the Maou's duties." Günter calmly explained.

"I FUCKING DON'T CARE! I AM NOT DOING IT!" To emphasize his point, Sanzo reached into his robes for his gun, but was surprised to find it gone. Günter held the shiny metal thing up.

"If you're looking for this, Sanzo-san, I suggest you give up." Sanzo charged towards him, but Günter held his sword up to Sanzo's neck. "I suggest you cooperate, Sanzo-san."

Sanzo let out a defeated sigh. "Fine, you fucking fool. But I am fucking getting my gun back." Just then, Conrad came walking down the hallway.

"Oh, Conrart!" Günter shouted to Conrad's walking figure. Conrad came onto view.

"Hello, Günter. Oh, and who is this gentleman?" Conrad indicated Sanzo.

Sanzo slapped his hand away. "Don't touch me."

"Oh, sorry about that. This is Genjyo Sanzo-san. He, we think, has switched worlds with heika."

"Switched worlds?" Conrad echoed, dumbfounded.

"Yeah. He suddenly appeared when Heika disappeared."

"Oh, I see."

"Anyway, I and Gwendal were thinking that you should train him in fencing."

"WHAAAAT?!" Conrad and Sanzo shouted in unison. Günter stared at them, shocked.

"What did I say?"

This was going to be very hard for Sanzo and Yuuri indeed.
