soz it’s one thing to squeeze 4-5 heads together for the icons, but 6 is just too much man

Can’t be Launched…?!
Scalding Sands - Zahab Market
Jamil
Looks like the sun is setting. The fireworks display will start soon, so shall we head to the event venue?
Grim
Ughh… I ate too much good food, now I’m feeling soooo bloated…
I feel like napping at this rate.
Kalim
C’mon, Grim! The event of the day’s only starting now! The best fireworks ever are gonna be shot into the sky soon!
Pyrotechnician
Ohh! Why, if it isn’t Young Master Kalim!
Kalim
Ah, old mister! It’s been a while, man!
Guys, this old man is the lead pyrotechnician for the team which creates the fireworks for the festival!
He’s a pyrotechnician among pyrotechnicians who’s extremely skilled at what he does. The fireworks wouldn’t be launched without him!
Jamil
The extra large fireworks display becomes the talk of the town every year. You could even say that it is the highlight of the festival.
Kalim
Last year’s was so amazing too! The huuuuuge fireworks went up with a bang in time with the music!
It was so fun then ‘cause there were even fireworks with unusual shapes like a lamp and a scarab beetle!
Hey, hey! What kind of fireworks will you be surprising us with this year?
Pyrotechnician
That’s a surprise for you to find out at the display later. We even prepared much grander fireworks for today.
You see, the Asim family commissioned us to basically do whatever, as long as it’s brilliantly brilliant.
Kalim
I’m looking forward to it~!
Pyrotechnician
Yes, please do enjoy… Hm?
Kalim
What’s wrong, old mister? You’re patting your clothes all over. Did it get dirty?
Pyrotechnician
The vital thing! I-It’s gone!
WITHOUT IT, I CAN’T LAUNCH THE FIREWORKS!
Everyone
WHAAAATTTT?!
Jamil
The fireworks can’t be launched…?! Just what was it that you lost?!
Malleus
Was it a secret document with the art of the launch recorded within?
Cater
Wouldn’t it be a supremely vintage flint or something instead?
Trey
If it’s like that… Maybe it was an amulet that the pyrotechnician inherited from his forefathers or something?
Pyrotechnician
No, it’s not that at all! What I lost was my USB flash drive!
Everyone
…USB flash drive?
Pyrotechnician
That USB drive contains the program data for the launching of the fireworks!
Jamil
What?! You mean the launching of those fireworks are controlled with the use of a computer?!
Cater
This is completely off from what I thought a pro specialist would do!
Pyrotechnician
Of course, we still need our expertise for coordinating our launches with the weather…
But the fireworks festival gets more complicated and lavish each year. This is a field that doesn’t allow room for even a single second of timing error.
Don’tcha think that technology would obviously be indispensable in this case?
Without my USB drive, it’d be impossible to carry on with the fireworks festival today!
Kalim
HUHH?! That’d be terrible!!
*Muttering…*
Tourist A
Huh? My purse isn’t here.
Tourist B
When did my bracelet disappear?!
Malleus
The people around us are panicking from losing their belongings as well.
Jamil
Seems like a pickpocket is lurking nearby. Still, they’re quite remarkable…
…Hm?!
???
……
Jamil
Yuu, watch out!
Monkey
Ukikiiiii!!!
Grim
Ah! It’s the monkey that made fun of me just now!
Jamil
Your smartphone would’ve been stolen if you reacted a second too late.
Malleus
There’s no doubt about it. That monkey has to be the thief.
Monkey
Ukikiii!!!
Kalim
Ah! It escaped!
Malleus
I cannot stand having my enjoyable trip ruined before my very eyes like this.
Allow me to stop it in its path with magic.
Cater
Hold up a second! What are you planning to do? You’re gathering a scarily huge amount of magical power!
In the worst case scenario where any of the ordinary folk gets injured because you used your magic, it’d become an international issue, Malleus!
Malleus
Hrm… How shall we stop it, then?
Trey
That monkey is quite nimble. Would we be able to chase after it and keep up…
Jamil
…It’ll be alright.
Because I’ve a complete grasp on what a scoundrel of that level is thinking.
I’ll make sure they regret trying to pickpocket us.
