Well, Vash the Stampede is the first human to be designated as a local calamity. 
He is a man who walks the road of disaster, but what does he usually think and 
do everyday? This month, we'd like to take a look at that daily life!!

p. 262
Vash the Stampede's morning starts early. His many nicknames include "Rooster 
Rouser," "Sunday Kid," and "The Man Who Moves the Morning."

p. 263
Morning meditation--Theme: "Life and Love." Finished in three seconds.

p.264
After that, training for three hours.

p.265
Hotel Maid: (seeing Vash come down the stairs) Good morning, Mr. Smith. For a 
gunman, you sure wake up early.

---------? Smith!?

That's right!!

Caption: Mr. John P. Smith

He's finally remembered to use a fake name when staying at hotels!!

p. 266
By nature, he hates trouble and sneaking around...

But with his looks and demeanor, even if he said his real name, no one would 
believe him.

Hotel Registrar: Man, I give up with you! You really like to make people jump!!

Vash: Ha ha ha! And I thought I had you going! I wasn't kidding!

While eating breakfast, Vash reflects on the fact that man cannot go through 
life being completely honest all the time.

(The afternoon sun is high overhead)

Old Man: ...... ....So you've come...!!

p.267
Vash plays chess with the neighborhood old man until lunch.

12:30 pm--pocket money left: 5 double dollars.

In the afternoon, Vash is caught by the kids coming home from school and is used 
as a practice dummy for wrestling.

From the first day he came into town, a lot of things have been said about him 
so it's very.....

(A biker roars past, barely missing Vash and the kids)

p. 268
(The biker stops a little ways from them, the kids cough on the dust)

Vash: Yeah, sorry 'bout that. Are you okay?

Biker: (spitting) .........

(The biker rides off)

Boy 1: Why'd you do that? You should have punched him good! What a waste!

Vash: Don't be stupid, nothing good would have come of that!

Boy 2: (slapping his forehead) God, what an adult!

That night, while listening to oldies broadcast from the satellite...people gulp 
down their glasses.

p. 269
Biker: (the same one from the afternoon, drawing his girl near) Hey hey hey

Girl: (giggling)Wait... Stop, not here

Radio Broadcast: Now, information regarding the Humanoid Typhoon. Vash the 
Stampede is still energetic as ever and continuing to wander the land. After 
repeated skirmishes, he now appears to be heading in the direction of Feybrant.

Girl: How scary.

Biker: Don't be stupid. Who do you think I am? I'm Sonic Sodom!

Bar Matron: (seeing her son run out into the bar) Mark! Get back to your room!

p. 270
Biker: And what's with the Humanoid Typhoon thing anyway. I bet all that stuff 
about him obliterating a town was just made up!!

Man: But they say he did in the Nebraska father and son too...

Biker: Heh. My friend did that, and if it were me, I'd have killed him instantly 
with one shot.

Bar Matron: Stop saying such foolish things! If you try to take him on, then 
you'll get this town destroyed too. And the ones who'll lose out are us and the 
children!! Because don't they say that he's a man with no blood or tears!?

Biker: (firing his gun at the matron) SHUT UP!

p. 271
Biker: (sneering)What? Are lectures to customers also on the menu? (while firing 
at the floor) Vash the Stampede is the $&#%"!@! of a %&#!*&?! in the $!!&@?%! 
and *&@)(!!#$&!! I'll kill him!!!

Bar Matron: (in a calm voice) ......... And one more thing. This is a quiet bar. 
If you want to bring some woman and flirt with her, then go somewhere else!!

p. 272
Biker: (his face is red with anger, he points his gun at the matron's face) Why 
you... hag...

(Vash spots a bottle and does his catapult trick) 
Biker: I'll kill... you... (Vash's bottle lands on the biker's head)

Girl: Kyaa!! Sodom-chan, are you alright!?

Man: Hey, somebody get a stretcher!!

Vash the Stampede. A lot of things happened, but at least the day ended with no 
one dead. Thank goodness!!

See you again!!
