77 Ash 123 The cold weather made it a situation in which Shuai could only choose to be indoors most of the time which was boring. He preferred the luxury of being able to be out and about. He liked participating in duels. He liked watching duels. He liked going to the store and spending money. He d...

42 Ash 123 [/u][/b] Maybe it was because Shuai had a taste for it in the last season but what exactly changed? It had been something he had actively done for quite some time already for years- not that anyone else knew about it or, if they did respected it enough to just play along because he had d...

63 Ash 123 Or at least that was an event which was going to have to happen, eventually. The Chisuo may have tried to expand their new initiative too fast and too soon that even their seeming sizable funds had a little dent in it. The usual members of the family did not even notice it until someone ...

It would be no surprise if the two who tried to escaped would have wished themselves dead instead of obeying Shuai's commands as these two in particular were the sole focus of Shuai and his entourage of fleshcrafted bodyguards. It was nothing as petty as because of the extra effort Shuai had to put ...

Surrender? Shuai did not know the meaning of the word- or that is what he would tell people in his retelling of this story so he could increase his notoriety. Maybe if everyone believed him to be a bloodlusted battle junkie they would avoid bringing him out for altruistic missions where violence was...

It was impressive, Jae-Seong's naivety that is as Shuai thought. He would have thought someone who operated as a mercenary would be able to scrutinize those requests with a lot more care. Surely gold, or in this instance the chance to help, was important but even more important was one's own life. &...

11 Ash 123 With nearly a seasons worth of effort to get the refugees acclimated to Kalzasi and, to get comfortable with the idea that the Chisuo's interest is in helping them as well, the Chisuo finally garnered enough interest for some of the refugees to get themselves settled in to the city with ...

It was of course not an enjoyable experience. While Shuai did enjoy testing his own martial prowess in a fight there were some which were completely unacceptable by society like a random bar brawl and, those which were not only accepted but welcome and lauded by society like a good blood boiling scr...

Indeed Shuai was unfamiliar with much of the nobility of Kalzasi but for whatever he could see on the surface- usually comprising of those who made way too many public appearances to put themselves on the spotlight; as someone who did the bare minimum of being a noble unless specifically requested t...

22 Searing 123 [/u][/b] Shuai knew when a good idea was a good idea and he was not shy to admit it. It was the same with giving credit for the idea as well. Shuai was not shy to give credit for that good idea either. Making elemental lodestones so that the refugees from Zaichaer could have some che...
