After the fire elemental incident  Saoirse Desrosiers and her slaves found themselves on the road again. Injuries had since been healed in part thanks to Scylla and Ryuuji. Only time would tell  if they would encounter the allies they had worked with back in their recent excursion. Unfortunately the wealth which they had found was not exceptional in amount, but at the very least it had helped to pay for their traveling expenses and cost of living if anything. Hopefully it would be the fuel the trio needed to get to the next place to make some serious profits.<br>
<br>
Saoirse’s owning class status did also give them some more leeway had she not been.  Many people  were more naturally inclined to respect her on their journey as was the way of etiquette. After all not everyone could claim they owned one slave, never mind two, and they indeed served dual purposes as status symbols for her to others. The fact she was a beast as well helped quite a bit, as people were more likely to take her seriously.<br>
<br>
Regardless, Ryuuji and Melia Hayward followed along diligently. The particular section of the dirt path they were on had been well maintained and cleared, there was not  a lot of bulky vegetation around them, instead much of it was grassy fields, with the occasional flower here and there.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
As the three traveled along the path it wasn’t all too long before a couple frog people  in some sort of monk-like attire walking along the side of the path stopped nearby the trio.  They weren't all too much taller than Saoirse had been.<br>

<span style="color: rgb(44, 130, 201)">“&lt;Hello sister, do they belong to you?&gt;”</span> A decidedly masculine voice asked Saoirse in beastial, this particular one was carrying what looked like a bo staff.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(44, 130, 201)">“&lt;If they do what are their talents? And I must ask why is someone of your status  moving along these paths with only humans by your side? Sure she looks strong, but I can guarantee you she could be more formidable if you just hear me out.&gt;”<br>
<br>
“&lt;And this young man here why he hardly looks like he’d be much better than throwing himself in front of you if a group of bandits attacked perhaps there are other skills suitable for him?&gt;”</span><br>
<br>
It didn’t look like the frog person was too concerned with being nosey.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(44, 130, 201)">“&lt;If you are not going anywhere urgently I believe that what our monastery can offer may be of great service, you may not know this but we are a martial order, with disciplined practices, and we are currently inviting visitors in to see what we have to offer. I believe that we could teach your traveling party here some valuable things, depending on what their uses to you are, of course for free..all that I ask is that you visit and if you like what you see, you may consider supporting our efforts.&gt;” </span><br>
It was pretty clear he was suggesting a donation at a later date from the language being used.<br>

Ryuuji looked at the monks and his instinct was to roll his eyes but instead he played the part and stayed quiet, trying his best to appear subservient to Miss Desrosiers.  Unfortunately Ryuuji still didn't understand the language which the monk spoke, but he assumed he was asking for money or something. For all they knew this  monk looking guy  was some criminal in disguise, and it wasn’t like Ryuuji knew much about the West Empire and it’s geography yet, he hadn’t even been in this world that long ago. But he did give  a sincere bow of acknowledgement, should Saoirse decide to engage in conversation with the supposed frogman monk.<br>
<br>
On the other hand it wasn’t unheard of monasteries to open up to the public for various events, perhaps this was a genuine invitation and he had been sent out to get people to visit, regardless it should be easy enough for them to keep going to the nearest settlement if it didn’t pique Miss Desrosiers’ interest.</div>

Her search for flourishing had led them to the other side of the Empire, as she was still looking for opportunities. They had yet to fix one of the bigger issues. Money. Having a lot of that would make everything else significantly easier. One of the reasons she'd wanted to travel all the way here was to try finding someone who'd buy the dragon scale halves they got at a high price. Turns out it might be worth a lot, but only to a very limited few people. Finding the right buyer wasn't going to be easy, even if they'd passed from north to south in an attempt to do so. She learned there might be some religious folk in this part of the world, so she figured they might have some sects or cults they could pawn off their dragon scale halves too.<br>
<br>
That said, the frog monks they encountered first didn't seem like the intended clientele at all. At least their leader was polite. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;Indeed.&gt;”</b></span> She replied, wondering what in the world this was going to be about. <br>
<br>
The next line of questions made her raise an eyebrow. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;I'm looking for someone interested in buying a mana rich dragon-scale.&gt;”</b></span> She figured she might as well see if these would be interested, even though the other questions suggested they wouldn't be. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;More formidable, you say? Consider me interested.&gt;”</b></span> She replied, as that certainly caught her attention. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;She's a warrior, he's a healer.&gt;”</b></span> She added, regarding the previous questions about their talents.<br>
<br>
His proposal didn't seem the worst. That said, she figured she could abuse it a tad more. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;If you provide is free lodgings and food for the duration of our stay, I'm willing to give it a shot. Of course, should your endeavours show results, I'd be inclined to support them further in the future. &gt;”</b></span> That should get them a place to stay for free at worst and some progress at best. Not too shabby.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“They're challenging you two to train with them, thinking they can teach you some new tricks.”</b></span> She translated for her slaves. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“We're taking them up on it, in exchange for them providing us with lodgings and food.”</b></span> She announced, already having settled on that next course of action.</div>

( Narrator note:  Duijan is essentially a religious leader)<br>
<br>
The more distinguishably dressed looking monk with the bo staff who had spoken to them first said.<br>
<br>
The frogman’s eyes appeared to light up a bit when Saoirse mentioned the fact that she was looking for someone interested in buying a mana rich dragon-scale.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(44, 130, 201)">“&lt;Why, I believe I can provide you with that very opportunity should you come back with us! The open house is an opportunity to meet  great people.&gt;” </span><br>
<br>
He said, sounding excited. However he did not seem to elaborate further at that moment, perhaps it was something worth asking further about.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(44, 130, 201)">“&lt;You have chosen most wisely!, of course we will not ask such an esteemed guest as yourself and by extension your property to pay for lodging or for food during your stay. I will do my utmost to ensure it is worth your time.&gt;”</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #2c82c9">“&lt;A warrior and a healer I see, There is plenty to work with then, we have people who can help with both skill sets, as well possibly help build some other skills which are most beneficial.  &gt;”</span><br>
<br>
<br>

Melia was quick to give Saoirse a physical  sign of acknowledgement with a bow, which probably looked a bit more extreme compared to Ryuuji's gesture, given their difference in height.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">“Yes Ma’am, I promise I’ll do my best to make the most of your time and this opportunity.”</span><br>

Ryuuji was quick to follow suit.<span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)"> “I promise you the same Miss Desrosiers. I know that I’m capable of much greater things than I showcased earlier..I can feel it's at my fingertips.” </span><br>
<br>
If what the monk said was true then perhaps it would be worth their time to travel all the way here, at least he hoped so, it had been the profits from their last excursion that let them get this far, free meals and lodging would help make traveling this far worth it no doubt. Of course he would have been excited at the prospect of them selling the dragon scale had he understood that bit of the exchange. <br>
<br>
Nong Shui  guided the group toward another well maintained path which led away from the field in the direction of one of the closest bodies of water.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(44, 130, 201)">"&lt;Not to be imposing but I am most curious about your background, I am more than open to share the same regardless if it strikes your interest.&gt;"<br>
<br>
“&lt;If you have any questions of course I would be more than happy to elaborate. We will not be too far from here. &gt;” </span>Nong Shui added.<br>
---<br>
There was an opportunity for further discussion during the travel period.<br>
<br>
As they moved across the land, thankfully unlike their last trip this one was less eventful besides the eventual shift of what could be seen. In the distance there were large ornate stone obelisks of sorts which had beastial  text inscribed into them. If one took the time to read the text became religious in nature quickly. The  two large Obelisks on either side of the path marked the start of the land which belonged to the monastery and that  they were very close to the  littoral zone of the lake.<br>
Even further in the distance parts of the  complex became apparent, quite a few towering pagodas visible now. In order to sus out more details the group would need to get even closer but it was quickly evident they were almost there.</div>

<span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;Saoirse Desrosiers.&gt;”</b></span> She replied upon the frog's introduction. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;Melia and Ryuuji.&gt;”</b></span> She pointed out her slaves. It'd probably be easier to train them if these frogs knew their names from get-go. Assuming the frogs would be able to back-up their words, of course.<br>
<br>
She was surprised the frog might know a chance to sell their scale. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;The open house... Is that a type of auction?&gt;”</b></span> It sure sounded like one, but at the same time, it also sounded like a commercial for the frog's training courses as well.<br>
<br>
That said, upon hearing lodgings and food were free, she figured the deal was made. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;Sounds like we have a deal.&gt;”</b></span> After all, now the worst that could happen was wasting some time in exchange for free food and lodgings. That'd still be an acceptable outcome. Even so, when he mentioned building some other skills, she was a tad more reluctant. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;I'd rather see them flourish by having them dedicated to their specialities. There's no use in knowing many skills without ever fully mastering any of them.&gt;”</b></span><br>
<br>
She'd nod at Melia and Ryuuji. It's not like they had much of a choice, but their obedient and even somewhat eager replies were still appreciate. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Good, very good. Perhaps I'll even see about joining in myself.”</b></span> She stated, out of the blue. She did have the [Natural Weapons] and [Jumping] to perform a decent Jump-Kick. It might not harm seeing if she could improve upon it, as she'd already needed it before. <br>
<br>
When the frog asked about her back-ground, she was a tad weary. How much of it should she share? Probably just the basics. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;My family's been in the slave trade for a few generations. Rather than taking over in the business as usual manner, I'm trying to develop them more. Quality over quantity. Besides, I enjoy trying to develop talent where other believes there is none.&gt;”</b></span> That was probably the extend of what was useful to share. Anything else wouldn't be worth it.<br>
<br>
As for questions of her own, she did have some. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;So why are all of you doing this? As a ritual to some sort of deity or as a self-development path to enlightenment or something?&gt;”</b></span> It might be nice to at least know some of the frog's motives, just in case.</div>

Nong Shui gave Saoirse a nod, before looking to Ryuuji and Melia with two more small nods. At the very least acknowledging their presence even if they were at the very bottom of the cast.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(44, 130, 201)">“&lt;Hm, by no means do I mean anything by this, but, have you ever considered how different that name is from the young man there? His name sounds like something you might expect from the beasts of Kuridan.&gt;”</span> Nong Shui simply commented.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(44, 130, 201)">“&lt;Of course that’s not all that caught my attention, Melia is quite tall for a human woman is she not? Regardless I’m certain that feature will suit her well for what you envision.&gt;”</span><br>
Nong Shui continued with a bit of a cheerier tone toward the later part.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">Melia Hayward</span> &amp; <span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">Ryuuji</span></b><br>

<br>
<span style="color: rgb(44, 130, 201)">“&lt;Well as I was mentioning prior, we are currently inviting those who travel the paths in a significant radius, I felt that it was only fitting that I partake in this process too, since It is only right for all of us to help.&gt;”<br>
<br>
“&lt;The open house has many purposes, it allows the public to enjoy what benefits the Liudong Lianhua Monastery has to offer, while potentially bringing in additional funding to maintain our way of life.&gt;”<br>
<br>
“&lt;While not explicitly an auction in name, if people perhaps see something valuable which we possess and they are interested in buying, then I believe that it mutually benefits all parties involved, wouldn’t you agree?&gt;”<br>
<br>
“&lt;In effect, there will likely be some others there who would be quite interested in buying that scale, depending on how well my brothers and sisters have been spreading the word to the right people.&gt;”</span><br>
<br>
From the sound of things the open house was multipronged, to get in the good graces of the public and potentially fund raise.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(44, 130, 201)">“&lt;Very well then, but should you decide there is value either of them knowing the tea ceremony or divulging into calligraphy, then please do let us know, and I can make it so.&gt;” </span><br>
<br>
Ryuuji was a bit surprised to hear Saoirse willing to partake in something like martial training, but given how she had used it earlier, he thought perhaps it wasn’t as out of the blue as it had seemed.<br>
<br>
Melia did not show surprise, perhaps on account of living with her longer and knowing Saoirse much better at this point.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(44, 130, 201)">“&lt;Of course! You are more than welcome to join in on any of our offerings should they interest you, powerful kicks will certainly come in handy in some of the exercises.&gt;”</span><br>
<br>
As the group moved along the conversation continued.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(44, 130, 201)">“&lt;I see, a generational business, I wish you well in your endeavor then, and I’m happy to hear that it sounds like your aspirations align well with what you are trying to accomplish.&gt;”<br>
<br>
“&lt;I especially appreciate it when someone like yourself treats them properly, in my belief I am called to care for all, so to not see any bruise marks or sign of malnutrition is reassuring.&gt;”</span> Nong Shui said pretty openly.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(44, 130, 201)">“&lt;Why yes, our order is dedicated to the lady of the lake, Aku Ya Nushi, for she has provided for the people of this region for many generations as a benevolent force who believes in the value of all life. As she has shown us kindness time and time again, is it only fair that we protect her and our home, and show others the kindness which she has shown us. The closer one can aspire to be like Aku Ya Nushi, the more fulfilling  and honest their lives will be.&gt;”</span><br>
<br>
While the monk continued to speak Ryuuji mentally almost wanted to scoff at this whole situation of going with the monks, but he refrained from doing so. A bunch of kumbaya monks probably. He wondered if one of them was going to pull a lute out and they were going to sing about the beauty of nature around a campfire when they got there. Granted he was somewhat jaded essentially being an atheist in his past life only to find out that some sort of divine being existed..recently. For now he did not say a word.<br>
<br>
Melia,  not knowing the language either didn’t appear to react much, however she did keep herself close to Saoirse, and looked at Nong Shui when he spoke.<br>
---<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b>Liudong Lianhua Monastery Complex</b>​</div><br>
The trio eventually found themselves passing the large obelisks which when Ryuuji was close enough to them he appraised one of them out of curiosity to see what information he could gather, Melia also finding her attention taken by them, the architecture was pretty unique all things considered. The slaves continued to stay close to Saoirse.<br>
<br>
Beyond the obelisks was a path of well placed smooth stones which looked like they were sourced from the bottom of a freshwater source. The pathway eventually lead into the main Courtyard of the monastery.<br>
<br>
Despite how relatively undefended the area looked, there was another faint magic dome of sorts which was actually quite extensive that only those who were attuned to magic could see in lieu of not having additional sensory skills to sus it out.<br>
<br>
Some of the aforementioned Pagodas became accessible in the main courtyard on the sides of it. Far off to the side of the courtyard there was a square space with a wooden fence around it designated  where  there were some monks in identical robes. While many were, they were not all frogs, the commonality between them all however was that they all looked like they were related to freshwater animals. As usual some of them looked more beast than others. Some of the monks were striking wooden targets with their appendages, while others were also brandishing bo staffs.<br>
<br>
The scent of a pleasant floral incense could be smelled even from where the small group stood, which permeated throughout the space, as well as the occasional sound of a wind chime.<br>
<br>
At the very center of the sizable courtyard however was a serene body of pure gleaming water  surrounded by lush gardens and blooming lotus flowers. The ground around the watery space showed what looked like some kind of stone pathway which could be walked in a circular motion through a zen garden of sorts, perhaps for meditation purposes. Not all far in the distance from this part of the monastery was a great view of the nearby lake.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(44, 130, 201)">“&lt;Shall I show you to your accommodations first? Naturally a general tour will be provided if that is of interest too”&gt;</span> Nong Shui asked, as the monks who had been with him eventually went off on their way after being dismissed.</div>

<br>
<b>Languages</b> Common | &lt;Beastial&gt;<br>
<br>
She was a tad surprised by the frog's comment. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;I had not considered it, as the names of Humans and slaves aren't of any particular interest to me.&gt;”</b></span> Even so, if it hadn't been of it interest before, it was now. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;Even if you claim to mean nothing by it, it seems to be relevant enough for you to bring it up. Why is that?&gt;”</b></span> She asked, now sufficiently interested in the topic to want to know more. In fact... <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Hey, Ryuuji, where did you come from?”</b></span> She'd ask, rather out of the blue for him, considering he didn't speak Beastial. That said, slaves didn't need to be in the loop, they just needed to answer when asked.<br>
<br>
She laughed at the mention of Melia being tall. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;A species like mine doesn't need a particularly big person to shield them, but at the same time, it never hurts. Besides, perhaps it can help with the intimidation factor. The best battles are the ones that don't even need to be fought, after all. Or is that not to your order's standard?&gt;”</b></span> She replied, figuring she might as well get more of an idea of what these frogs were up too while at it. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;Either way, she's got a great potential to grow as a warrior. You'll see it soon enough.&gt;”</b></span> After all, her [Fighting Style] was already rather [specialized], so all it took to increase her abilities was to master the overall style further. <br>
<br>
When the frog mentioned they were bringing in travellers from a radius, it was the second part that stood out. Was she dealing with a frog monk bigwig? She wouldn't have even noticed it. She wasn't one to know much about religion, let alone monk sects. Then again, the fact he addressed her rather casually would suggest he had the status and caste to match hers. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;An interesting method.&gt;”</b></span><br>
<br>
As for the open house and auction, she nodded. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;Spent money to get money, I see.&gt;”</b></span> Another interesting method. One that was highly open to exploits by those less generous and more self-centred. In other words, this should be good. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;That seems peculiar, but valid.&gt;”</b></span> She added. regarding the ongoing market-place that seemed to be this monastery. That said, she couldn't help notice that it sounded like they were in dire need of money if they needed to sell their possessions to whomever offered money for them. Perhaps there was even more to exploit here. She made a mental note to discuss that with Ryuuji later. <br>
<br>
She scoffed at the idea of tea ceremonies or calligraphy. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;If I wanted either of that, I'd just buy a slave more suitable.&gt;”</b></span> The idea of either Melia or Ryuuji wasting their time on it, rather than fulfilling their actual potential and striving towards flourishing, was simply outrageous. <br>
<br>
<span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;Offerings?&gt;”</b></span> She asked. That was an odd way to describe training. Perhaps he meant the training schedules on offer? Either way, she figured she might need to be a tad more careful. That said, sitting still wasn't of any use, so she might as well see what these 'offerings' would be like. At least from a distance, at first. <br>
<br>
His speech on treating slaves made her scoff again. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;It would be most foolish to damage your own wares, regardless of any believes.&gt;”</b></span> She stated, as that was perhaps her first and foremost reason for disliking most of the common slave practices. It was too illogical and unreasonable. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;Although they need to be in good condition in general, if I want to develop them.&gt;”</b></span> She added, stating the more personal reason for wanting the best for her slaves. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;Ah, right, it's also nice to know they'll be more inclined to keep you safe rather than murder you in your sleep.&gt;”</b></span> Another great reason to treat slaves well. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“You two would keep me safe, right?”</b></span> She'd ask Melia and Ryuuji, wondering if the frog would be able to tell whether or not their 'yes' would be sincere. She herself, at least, expected it to be.<br>
<br>
The whole story about a lady of the lake was a tad less interesting. It sounded like a stray from the path towards flourishing. In other words, she deemed it best not to make any statements regarding it.<br>
<br>
The complex itself was impressive enough. Even her slaves clearly seemed to think so, being taken by the obelisks. The groups here certainly looked like lake-folk. All in all, the place was pretty nice. She'd not mind owning such a facility to train slaves. Perhaps in the future... <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;Give us the tour first.&gt;”</b></span> She replied. They were packed lightly and hadn't travelled that far today, so she figured it'd be best to see more of their surroundings. It might also be their best shot at making up their minds on staying in this place, should the frogs be hiding things and/or be up to shady business. No that she minded shady business. Just not when it was used behind her back. Ryuuji couldn't heal back organs just yet, so it'd be troublesome if she suddenly woke up missing some.</div>

“&lt;Well, It just stuck out to me as odd that a human would have a naming convention so close to a beast’s. It could be as simple as he was raised by beasts from Kuridan I suppose, or maybe even immigrants, but frankly I find it hard to believe many would go to such lengths to accept a human as one of their own.&gt;”</span><br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">Ryuuji Kamimura</span><br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/191375bb603b38aa92b3af07a1830856-1-1-1-1-jpg.1128116/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/1065/1065245-fba3d9fd3d3ca961558cb26cf83e3b81.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="191375bb603b38aa92b3af07a1830856-1-1-1-1.jpg" title="191375bb603b38aa92b3af07a1830856-1-1-1-1.jpg" width="100" height="175" loading="lazy"></a></b>​</div>Of course Ryuuji was somewhat caught off guard with the question since he had the pleasure of listening to a conversation in which he felt like there were words which he practically should understand but unfortunately was unable too. Why did this language have to be so close to Japanese yet not it? It was more than a bit frustrating. But that’s when his mind registered the question and he felt a bit nervous suddenly, which was not like him. Great now he had to either try to lie, which if Saoirse was suspicious of his response could only cause trouble for him, or he could tell the truth which could be problematic too, perhaps he’d need to say some sort of truth with some omission thrown in. Now even Melia was taking a look over at him which really wasn’t helping things any, the frog too, all eyes, for trying to be the side character slave he sure had a way of getting people’s attention on him.<br>
<br>
He also knew he couldn’t keep the hare waiting too long. <br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">“I originally came from an island community. An island which has some similarities to the place known as the Republic of Kuridan. I traveled from there to the West Empire.” </span><br>
<br>
He spoke technically the truth with some omission, While the details were technically true he was not going to admit this early on that he was from another world and had been from Japan, hoping that would saitate some curiosity. Perhaps they’d just assume he was from some obscure human tribe which wasn’t well known.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">Melia Hayward<br>

Melia looked curious at hearing him say that, but she didn’t speak her mind on the matter.<br>
<br>
Nong Shui was also curious.<span style="color: rgb(41, 105, 176)"> &lt;”Hm, well this world is a pretty big place I’ve heard.&gt;”</span><br>
<br>
With Saoirse's response about the height comment pertaining to Melia, Nong Shui chuckled a bit himself.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(41, 105, 176)">“&lt;Oh no there is no problem with her height, there are others of us who are tall, she should be able to partake just as the rest, many shapes and sizes which we beasts take after all.&gt;” <br>
<br>
“&lt;And of course peace is preferable to conflict, but in order to protect this lake and our way of life, our philosophy, it was decided early one we must know how to fight should the need come.&gt;”<br>
“&lt;I look forward to the opportunity.&gt;”<br>
<br>
“&lt;I'm pleased to hear you find our methods to be interesting, I hope that you’ll find them to be mutually beneficial.&gt;”</span> He summarized in his remark after her comments on what she thought of what he mentioned they were currently doing as far as fund raising went.<br>
<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(41, 105, 176)">“&lt;I understand, you know what role is most suitable to them and as their owner I am certain you know best then. Regardless the offer shall stand.&gt;”<br>
<br>
“&lt;Indeed offerings as in knowledge and pleasantries.&gt;”</span> He responded plainly at her restating the word.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(41, 105, 176)">“&lt;Whether it be out of pragmatism or necessity, my sentiment of thanks still stays the same, that you see the there being value in upholding the dignity of other life.&gt;”</span><br>
<br>
Melia was quick to respond to Saoirse’s question.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">“I would offer up life to protect yours should it come to it.”</span> Melia sounded pretty serious with her words too, as did the expression which she had when she said it.<br>
<br>
Ryuuji gave a slight bow once more. <span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">“Of course Miss Desrosiers.” </span><br>
<br>
He was quick to answer too. He also sounded quite serious, which truthfully was true. Running away with a title like he had was a pretty difficult endeavor even if he wanted to. Frankly he’d much rather be owned by her than anyone else at the current time especially given what other slave owners could be like..plus their mindsets for profit seemed to be pretty compatible which he had enjoyed so far.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(41, 105, 176)">“&lt;Looks like from the sound of things you won’t have to worry about disloyalty anytime soon.&gt;”</span> Nong Shui commented.<br>
<br>
By the time they were far in Nong Shui nodded, <span style="color: rgb(41, 105, 176)">“&lt;Very well then!&gt;” " I shall show you all around. If you have any questions, of course feel free to ask.”</span><br>
<br>
Nong Shui then proceeded to show off some of the more important closest attractions. <br>
<br>
He made his way over to central gleaming water in the garden and explained this time in common, so that Melia and Ryuuji could understand presumably, <br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(41, 105, 176)">“Here is the spirit pool, believed to be a gift from Aku Ya Nushi herself, it is said that those who bathe in the water will have heightened spiritual awareness and martial prowess. It is not uncommon for some to rest in the water to meditate.”</span><br>
<br>
After explaining that some more, Nong Shui gestured to the area where people were training, <span style="color: rgb(41, 105, 176)">“This is a popular spot for martial training. Equipment is typically exchanged depending on what we are focusing on for the day.”<br>
<br>
“We also have an area closer to the lake for training requiring a greater source of water to be present.”</span><br>
<br>
After some more time of talking, He then approached a much more ornate building placed like a building might on a campus, suggesting that Nong Shui likely did have some form of wealth if it was a communal asset.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(41, 105, 176)">“This is the Hall of Scholarly Tranquility.” </span>Nong Shui spoke much more quietly as they got close. The building was sizable with sweeping eaves and lapis lazuli colored pillars. Within the hallowed halls, a colossal ornate golden statue of a wise looking beast Bodhisattva type figure overlooked some more monks who were seemingly active in silent contemplation in front of the statue. To the sides ancient scrolls lined the walls similar to a library. Flickering lantern light illuminated the faces of monks engaged in the study of esoteric texts in the form of scrolls.<br>
<br>
Nong Shui would also show them to the mess hall which had simple but efficient. A wide wooden space with a bamboo ceiling with lots of traditional pillow seats with low tables. A kitchen was off to the side, as well as a place where presumably one could collect their meal.<br>
<br>
There was another similarly basic inside space with seating and a lectern of sorts presumably for speeches inside which he showed them, however there were a few more fairly impressive statues near the entrance to the space. There had been a space outside curated with stones for seats instead for similar purposes depending on what made more sense which he had also shown them.<br>
<br>
There was a walking trail which went around the lake which they maintained, which he mentioned in passing.<br>
<br>
Of course several of the Pagodas were additional prayer spaces for various purposes. However some of them also contained some of the more valuable objects which he had been speaking of, some of them arranged similar to how a museum might. Objects like smaller ornate statues, finely crafted traditional weapons and armor, jewelry, pendants, fine pottery, even some calligraphy pieces and block prints, clearly being treated as fine art.<br>
<br>
Toward the end he’d also then show them to the accommodations for sleeping which were at the very least nicer than where the trio had spent nights before with proper canopy beds with some elegant looking pillows, as well as some nearby chests to store belongings, a chair and desk and a lantern and means to light it as well.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(41, 105, 176)">“&lt;Now then I presume you’d like three separate rooms?&gt;” </span>He’d ask facing Saoirse at this point since the slaves counted as part of her ‘property’ it was pretty natural to ask the question, not all slave owners would probably feel the same about the topic.<br>
<br>
So far there hadn't been much that stuck out as super suspicious. At most given there was supposedly an open house going on, despite having been around quite a good deal of the place, there didn't seem to be many other outsiders around and about at least obviously.<br>
<br>
For the duration of the look around Melia hadn't really asked anything, but she had paid attention respectfully. This was similarly true for Ryuuji, who didn't really want to push his luck by annoying the frog man with too many questions even if he had many. During the process however Ryuujji had been keeping track of the valuables, and compartmentalizing them, since they'd give him potential insight into what was valuable. The religious and culture explanations really only seemed to confirm his feelings earlier that these really were just a bunch of overly optimistic types that their chosen way of life was somehow going to lead them to the truth. Thankfully though what it did mean was that there might be opportunities for them to seize moving forward.</div>

<br>
<b>Languages</b> Common | &lt;Beastial&gt;<br>
<br>
<span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“An island community..?”</b></span> There weren't many of those known in this world. She assumed he wasn't speaking about the Sky Islands either. To that extend, island communities reminded her more of the Greeks or Cypriots from her old world, although those definitely hadn't been similar to Kuridan.  <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“You should point it out on the map sometime. You've got me interested.”</b></span> She replied, having gotten curious to see if this world had island communities similar to those of her old world.<br>
<br>
'Offerings as in knowledge and pleasantries.' She still thought it was a dubious word to have been used by a monk, but she decided to risk it. After all, a good deal was ahead of them if this offer was true and if it was as exploitable as she hoped it would be. <br>
<br>
She couldn't help feel a tad proud at their responses of protecting her. She'd trained them well thus far. Not like she'd ever want to see them at risk of dying, as that'd be a pretty big financial set-back and it'd ruin her plans for further develop them while at it. Their deaths would be horrible, all in all. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Good, good~ Although, we'd best make sure it'll never be needed~”</b></span> She replied to them. After all, during the last dangerous encounter, she'd been the one hopping through fire and risking her life instead, which had turned things upside-down for a bit.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;If things go well, I hope to never have to do so.&gt;”</b></span> She replied to the frog's comment of worrying about loyalty. After all, how could she develop someone that was disloyal? She feared that'd be a near impossible task. <br>
<br>
She looked at the pool with mixed interest. It was definitely an odd place to show them first. That said, simply bathing to gain more power sounded like it'd be too easy to be true. Yet bathing in itself was nice. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Are those freely accessible?”</b></span> She figured she might try them out, even though she might need to share them with the common rabble. With some luck they'd steer clear, at the very least, if she did so.<br>
<br>
As they passed the equipment room, she quickly checked to see if there was equipment specialising on legs. After all, both rabbits and frogs were known to have stronger than average legs. There might be some things she could use here. Either in all seriousness or just to pass some time. She'd yet to settle on it. <br>
<br>
<span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“What type of training do you need so much water for? Swimming?”</b></span> She asked, wondering why he mentioned it. Did they train fish-folk as well or something? Most of them looked at least somewhat aquatic, at least. All in all these folk remained rather odd. <br>
<br>
As she looked across the library like-building, highly decorated as it was, another question arose. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Do you have any scriptures on reincarnation?”</b></span> Perhaps she could find out some more about her arrival to this world. That'd be intriguing.<br>
<br>
At the question of having separate rooms, she debated her options. In the end, she figured she'd risk being rude to their frog hosts. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“I'd prefer one with two or more beds. I'd rather have one or both of them stick with me. They are my guards, after all.”</b></span> Considering her intention would be rather clear even if she didn't add the latter part, she figured it was best to be upfront. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“With so many varied guests that may or may not arrive at your establishment, I'd rather not take unnecessary risks.”</b></span><br>
<br>
That said, she hadn't spotted many of those varied guests just yet. Peculiar. Perhaps this frog place was less popular than expected, which made her wonder why. If they were going through so much trouble to promote the place, they didn't seem to have many results to show for it. That said, she spotted Ryuuji glossing over some of the supposed valuables. Perhaps he'd seen more than she had; opportunities for profit. If these were in dire need of money, picking up some of those artefacts for cheap and selling them at high margins would be great.</div>

<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/191375bb603b38aa92b3af07a1830856-1-1-1-1-jpg.1129296/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/1066/1066425-fba3d9fd3d3ca961558cb26cf83e3b81.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="191375bb603b38aa92b3af07a1830856-1-1-1-1.jpg" title="191375bb603b38aa92b3af07a1830856-1-1-1-1.jpg" width="100" height="175" loading="lazy"></a></span></b>​</div><br>
Ryuuji almost gulped to himself, hopefully this whole thing would be forgotten about eventually and even if they stumbled upon a realm map he wouldn’t be asked to point that out. He didn’t even know if there were any islands in this world, but it was the best that he had to say for the time being.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">“Certainly Miss Desrosiers..” </span>He responded respectfully as perusal, doing his utmost not to sound suspicious, so he could just get back to playing the discrete side character role well enough once again.<br>
<br>
Both slaves gave small bows at her saying it would never be needed.<br>
<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(41, 105, 176)">Nong Shui<br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/screenshot-2023-11-22-at-1-33-49-am-png.1129295/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/1066/1066424-c3d688b8a01cacdf7c08c7282713ba22.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="Screenshot 2023-11-22 at 1.33.49 AM.png" title="Screenshot 2023-11-22 at 1.33.49 AM.png" width="100" height="110" loading="lazy"></a></span></b>​</div>Nong Shui looked to her thoughtfully before replying to her statement, <span style="color: rgb(41, 105, 176)">“&lt;I have a good feeling.&gt;” <br>
<br>
<br>
“&lt;Yes you may wash yourself there if you please during this visitation period it is free of charge.&gt;”</span> suggesting it might not necessarily be free in the future, but also not confirming it would definitely be pay to use later.<br>
<br>
Had Ryuuji been capable of understanding that exchange he would have probably thought it was ridiculous not to charge money for someone to use an amenity like that, but alas he did not speak beastial.<br>
<br>
As for what Saoirse could gather of the equipment room, there were some leg  weights for the purpose of strength training in the form of blocks with ties appropriately scaled for larger and smaller beasts, as well as leather combat boots like one might see on West Empire soldiers.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(41, 105, 176)">“Well some certainly swim for exercise or leisure but many of us are capable of underwater combat, and we train for such appropriately.”</span> He explained matter of fact to Saoirse.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(41, 105, 176)">“There are also breathing exercises one can practice intermittently beneath the surface and above..even if many of us are capable of breathing underwater in various forms.”</span><br>
<br>
At the library part of the tour Nong Shui nodded,<span style="color: rgb(41, 105, 176)"> “Yes we do have texts on reincarnation, you may take a look if you’d like, our library is open to visitors, but I cannot guarantee everything in there will always be the easiest to understand.”</span><br>
<br>
This also intrigued Ryuuji a bit now that he understood what was going on, looking over at Nong Shui in thought, was there perhaps information on that divine like figure he had seen earlier? That was definitely of interest.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">Melia Hayward<br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/gyomdvf-jpg.1129298/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/1066/1066427-16450e91d710f396cf954ba1e867d99e.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="GYOmdVf.jpg" title="GYOmdVf.jpg" width="100" height="100" loading="lazy"></a></span></b><br>​</div>Melia on the other hand maintained her neutral, a bit serious and focused look, akin to what a bodyguard might look like typically.<br>
<br>
At the room conversation, Melia and Ryuuji weren’t going to dare give any input into that, It was completely up to Saorise as their owner to settle matters like that, Ryuuji himself might have chosen a solitary room if it were up to him, but that it was not.<br>
<br>
Nong Shui almost looked a bit surprised when she said that much before he nodded, <span style="color: rgb(41, 105, 176)">“Very well! I can make it so, we’ll place you in one of the larger rooms and we can move some additional beds along the walls.”</span><br>
<br>
Whether it was generosity, or her reasonable explanation about there being more strangers than usual   or hoping that if he pleased Saoirse she might benefit the order somehow financially, it seemed offense was not taken. After some time the plan was communicated and aquatic  monks went to work moving additional beds into the aforementioned room space which Nong Shu showed the trio too, the room arrangement now modified so that the three beds fit comfortably into the space.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(41, 105, 176)">“If there is anything else we could offer this space, please let me know, and if you have any other questions please feel free to ask, I imagine after traveling so far you might appreciate a rest, if there is nothing else I will leave you be now.”</span> There were probably others Nong Shui foresaw wanting to greet. Depending on how Saorise answered he would leave the scene.<br>
<br>
This would provide the trio an opportunity to plan and strategize  moving forward during a bit of down time.</div>

Free access to the baths. That sounded like something she should make use of. She'd just need to check when the least amount of people would use them. Or perhaps she should bring Melia to ward off unwanted attention? She'd think on it. <br>
<br>
She listened to the frog's explanation about swimming and training with half-interest. It was the part on reincarnation literature in the library that interested her more. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“I'll read up on it later, in that case.”</b></span> She replied, wondering what she might or might not learn from it.<br>
<br>
Considering her request was granted relatively easily, the frogs were a tad less suspicious. That said, she still didn't trust them all that much. She had no more questions. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“No thanks, that'll be all.”</b></span> <br>
<br>
Upon the frog leaving, she checked the room a bit for anything suspicious. Then, upon hopefully confirming there was none such thing and checking no others were nearby, she'd speak up, keeping her tone down. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Well, it seems these frogs are desperate for money. It's best we be weary. Should give us chances to exploit, but also puts us at risk of being exploited.”</b></span><br>

Those were her general observations. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“That said, I've seen more than one slave be sold to be drowned as a sacrifice to some water deities, so regardless of their talk, it won't hurt to be cautious.”</b></span> She wasn't entirely sure how much she believed in their whole goody-two-shoes act to begin with.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“I'd say we have someone keep an eye out during the night and just be careful on our own during the day.”</b></span> She said, the former explain the reason she hadn't been eager to split up rooms. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“For as far as I'm concerned, staying here is akin to camping out in the wild.”</b></span> That was the same level of concern she had about frogs or strangers trying something in here.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“On the positive side, I think I'll check out these baths sometime tomorrow.”</b></span> She'd also made up her mind. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Melia, you accompany me.”</b></span> It'd be nicer to have someone to be able to get rid off unwanted attention, should it be needed, than to have to deal with it herself. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Ryuuji, considering you were eyeing them earlier, I'd suggest you go check out if there's anything of value for sale. If we can get enough for the dragon scale, we can buy some things and make an even bigger profit later. If they're desperate enough for money, I'm assuming some decent deals should be possible.”</b></span> She barely even hid the fact she was hoping to rip them off.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Although for now, we should just observe on that front. It's best we see what their training is worth first.”</b></span> It wasn't good to get on a bad note with their hosts before sampling what they had to offer. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“So long as you don't waste your times on calligraphy or tea ceremonies, I'm inclined to leave it up to you to decide which ones are worthwhile. For now, at least.”</b></span> She wondered if her slaves would have the right ideas on how to work towards flourishing by themselves. Hopefully they would, as that'd be helpful.</div>

Nong Shui nodded with agreement before confirming that he heard Saoirse before he would exit, also reiterating to her that she was certainly more than welcome to read the script at her leisure.<br>
<br>
Her check of the room did not reveal anything suspicious thankfully, it just looked like a pretty normal looking room.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">Ryuuji Kamimura</span></b> &amp; <b><span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">Melia Hayward</span></b><br>
<br>

As she began to speak Melia and Ryuuji stood close to her at respectful attention, both of them pretty quickly catching on that she was keeping her voice down for a reason. Ryuuji thought this was pretty reasonable all things considered, who knew if there wasn’t one of these monks just outside their room listening in after all. Since Ryuuji knew how far he was willing to go for a profit, it made him naturally skeptical toward others intentions. He did give her a nod when she mentioned that the frogs appeared desperate for money.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">“That’s the feeling I got myself Miss Desrosiers. In one way, it is advantageous if there aren’t too many more outsiders who come since it might give us greater haggling power, presuming you want to acquire any of those items we saw earlier..however on the other hand, they may try to charge us later, or with there not being as many people being here there might be less of an opportunity for us to part with that scale..which would go a ways of helping us..I suppose it’ll depend just how it all unfolds.”</span> He finished.<br>
<br>
For the time being Melia was relatively quiet, perhaps it not being business she felt as comfortable speaking on.<br>
<br>
At that next comment  while Ryuuji’s face maintained it’s somewhat elegant neutral look, on the inside he couldn’t help but feel a bit nervous when she mentioned potential drowning, this made him wish he had picked the water breathing feature when he had talked to that god..but hindsight was 20-20.<br>
<br>
He and Melia gave additional nods of acknowledgement at that line.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">“As Melia’s training is likely to be more physically exhausting than my own, perhaps I should take the night watch at least more often than not.”</span> Ryuuji offered, figuring it seemed like a logical move. Granted he wasn’t sure if training in magic would take a big physically trying toll as well as mental, but he figured Melia would benefit from getting some proper sleep.<br>
<br>
Melia looked to her owner and gave another gesture of respect<span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">, “I will do as you wish, and I promise I’ll keep you and your property safe.” </span>She said with assurance once more.<br>
<br>
She actually lit up subtly at being told that she would get to accompany Saoirse to the baths, with a faint smile. <span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">“Of course Ma’am, wherever you want to go with me I’ll follow.”</span><br>
<br>
Ryuuji gave another bow of respect. <span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">“Understood Miss Desrosiers, thank you, I believe that plan will allow me to make good use of my current..unfortunately limited skillset. I also did see some items of interest which I believe would have nice resale value at the appropriate auction or collector audience.” </span><br>
<br>
Ryuuji couldn’t help but think that calligraphy wouldn’t be a terrible use if one could use the skill to become a commercial artist of sorts and generate some revenue, but it was pretty clear Saoirse wasn’t thrilled with either of them doing the idea since she would simply acquire slaves more suited to it she had suggested.<br>
<br>
Both slaves gave acknowledgement and signs of agreement when she said they should first see if the training is even worth it. If it didn’t seem worth it that would probably change the priorities some, as far as trying to profit as much as possible and then dipping quickly, Ryuuji figured but she was right that was a smart first move.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">“ Thank you for granting us this opportunity. I couldn’t bare the idea of squandering the time you’re investing in us Ma’am, I’ll make sure my choices are considered to the best of my ability.”</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">“I feel a similar sentiment to Melia, I also greatly appreciate this liberty. I’ll use my best judgment then, and hopefully will be able to meet the aforementioned magic user who can best assist me which that monk mentioned earlier.”</span></div>

So far so good. The room was normal at least.<br>
<br>
She listened as Ryuuji confirmed he'd gotten the same vibes as her, from what he'd seen here. She just nodded at him, agreeing without feeling the need to more explicitly point it out.<br>
<br>
A bit of a smile formed on her lips when Ryuuji offered to be standing most of the night's watch. Her slaves coming up with such agreements amongst themselves was a great development. <br>
<br>
<span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Good, good. I'm in a good mood, so you can wake me up early and I'll personally keep an eye out during the last two hours.”</b></span> She offered, figuring she'd chip in a bit so her property had more energy for development during the coming day. Besides, I'd also give her some time to prepare.<br>
<br>
With all that settled on, as well as their plans for the next day, all that remained was to spent the night there and start up their plans the next morning. She'd spent the two hours she woke up earlier going through some of her slaver's documentation, checking to see when she'd be able to afford a new slave. One of the main things she'd been wondering was whether or not there was flourishing to be found in servitude by itself. Someone fully dedicated not to the protection of another, but to the absolute and total comfort of another. Could someone so centred towards a target outside of themselves flourish as such, or would that be a lost cause? It was an interesting thing to ponder about. For now, she figured giving Melia and Ryuuji enough freedom to focus on themselves would definitely be needed to really make <i>them</i> flourish, at least. <br>
<br>
That said, when it was time to get into action, she'd wake them up with a; <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Let's move. I'll be checking out the library first, Melia, I'll meet you at the baths in the afternoon. Ryuuji, unless something comes up, you can report to me in the evening.”</b></span> She was fairly sure Ryuuji could handle the freedom whilst she'd give Melia her own choice of training to join for the morning, figuring it'd be best to use her own bath time to let Melia rest whilst keeping an eye out, so that she could possibly go for a second training in the evening. <br>
<br>
With that arranged, she'd personally set off for the library, wondering what she might find about the reincarnation literature she was curious about.</div>

Ryuuji, should he notice the subtle smile, was feeling a bit better about his role of trying to stay a side character for now. Appeasing Saoirse really was all he needed to focus on at the moment, it made things simpler to think about his actions in term of that in many ways. Regardless it was fortunate that she took well to what he had to say as far as plans went.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">Melia Hayward<br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/gyomdvf-jpg.1132258/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/1069/1069387-16450e91d710f396cf954ba1e867d99e.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="GYOmdVf.jpg" title="GYOmdVf.jpg" width="100" height="100" loading="lazy"></a></span></b>​</div>Ryuuji and Melia were both pretty quick to give thanks to Saoirse for her saying she’d keep watch in the last two hours.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">“That’s quite generous of you ma’am, should you change your mind I’m certain either of us could take over.”</span><br>
<br>
Ryuuji bowed some , <span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">“Thank you..Miss Desrosiers, more should aspire to care as you do.” </span><br>
<br>
That was probably the best way of putting it as far as Ryuuji was concerned. He had probably gotten an idea by that point Saoirse was pretty into the idea of them being successful  so it was probably largely motivated by that rather than an intrinsic  kindness, but he could certainly relate to that, Ryuuji himself could relate in many ways which in some ways was preferable to having someone who was naturally inclined to give and not prioritize themselves.<br>
<br>
Thankfully during the night nothing eventful happened when they had slept there. Perhaps there would be more visitors who might provide some use now that some time had passed, which was something else to seriously consider.<br>
<br>
<br>
Both Melia and Ryuuji woke up diligently and without prompting beyond what she woke them up with. Thankfully both slept rather well during the portion of the night they were able too. Even if the monastery accommodations had been rather modest it was a deal better than what that tavern had been providing them.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">“Yes Ma’am, I’ll check out what’s available and join accordingly.”</span> She said with a bit of a reserved smile, seemingly still glad that Saoirse was still intending to share some bath time with her, an appealing prospect to Melia evidently.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">“Understood Miss Desrosiers before the day is over, I’ll take another look at those items and get into a training of my own then.”</span><br>
<br>
For Melia the natural place for her to go was back to where she had seen the martial training toward the center in the closed off area. Thankfully by the time she got there, there were some monks who had congregated, and some appeared to be sparring in some form of martial arts which she was personally unfamiliar with but had seen beasts before who were capable as some of the moves appeared somewhat familiar.<br>
<br>
<br>
What she hadn’t quite been expecting was when an older looking frog man wearing  the same bluish hued monk robes approached her  who was similar in height as Saoirse.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(97, 189, 109)">“Hello there young mind, Nong Shui informed me that someone like you would probably be heading over here..I prepared some practice Wudangs, since using actual blades would be dangerous..as to my understanding that is your weapon of choice, yes?”</span> He asked her in good enough common for her to understand if abeit with a Western Empire accent.<br>
<br>
Melia nodded and gave a bow, following the social class protocol. <span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">“Yes sir, I appreciate you accommodating me.”</span> She replied politely.<br>
<br>
He then gestured to the wooden stylized swords, <span style="color: rgb(97, 189, 109)">“Why don’t we begin over here then?” </span><br>
<br>
Melia graciously took one of the wooden training swords and the older frog man began to show her basic forms, and how to hold it properly. Learning some stances could prove to be useful in her combat abilities should this be something she pursued long term.<br>
<br>
Thankfully the Monk bunch so far had seemed pretty tolerant of humans which was probably in part on account of their belief systems from what Nong Shui described, regardless it would help training in good faith take place.<br>
<br>
While that was on going, Ryuuji had made his way out as well, first and foremost he wanted to check those items out. Thankfully he was uninterrupted making his way through the area, now however as he traversed the monastery  he did see some more outsiders who looked like they were possibly of the more wealthy sort. That was a possibly good sign, meant they might have a higher chance of selling the item, he didn’t get as friendly looks from some of them as he had the monks, definitely getting the typical vibe he had from many that he was an outsider and therefore more suspicious. Regardless he made his way out back to the museum area. He started to use appraisal on some items, like the combat-like boot tools he had seen earlier that would probably suit Saoirse well if she decided knocking  some teeth in was necessary.<br>
<br>
He examined the traditional light armor as well, and some of the traditionally made Wudan style weapons like the bow and sword which were antiques for sure, as well as some jewelry, however as he was getting up close to look at some ring. Yeah these were the sorts of things they could definitely resell if the monastery was desperate..a bit of a smirk falling on his face at the thought..wondering how well Saoirse could barter with them..since so far they’d felt like pushovers in a lot of ways..moving the beds just like that..<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(41, 105, 176)">Nong Shui<br>

Before he turned around and saw Nong Shui standing there, feeling his heart still racing he immediately bowed.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">“Deepest Apologies Sir..”</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(41, 105, 176)">“You’re fine Ryuuji, but fancy seeing you here, I hope that you’ve been enjoying looking at our  wares, I'm afraid that some of it will need to go soon to upkeep maintenance costs.”</span><br>
<br>
He paused momentarily before continuing.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(41, 105, 176)">“But I do imagine that you should get to training soon enough, that’s why your Mistress brought you here is it not?”</span><br>
<br>
Ryuuji gave a nod of confirmation. <span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">“That is the main reason why sir..”</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(41, 105, 176)">“Well then don’t want to upset her do you? I know that there’s plenty of nice things around here too look at but I’d say results should be your priority, and you’re just in luck, follow me it won’t take too long from here, that person who I think will work well for your purposes isn’t far from here.” </span><br>
<br>
Ryuuji didn’t really feel like he had much choice at this point, there was no way he wanted to risk disrespecting the leader of this place when there was so much potential profit to be had.<br>
<br>
The walk had been a tad farther than he was expecting however, due to the path they went, Ryuuji could see Melia training with the elder frog, and it was quite a sight..it looked pretty serious, perhaps these monks knew what they were talking about..of course he wasn’t a sword fighting expert or anything but it looked pretty legit.<br>
<br>
Ryuuji found himself at the water’s edge..it was gleaming, and serene in a way, with how the cool wind blew, the circular roofed open gazebo in the distance which went out into the water some, which again reminded him of traditional Chinese architecture, which was where he was being led, and the aquatic plantlife nearby.  There were some more of the now more familiar looking  wind chimes set up as well.<br>
<br>
Ryuuji was a bit confused at first when he stood at the entrance however, this was where the person who would be able to help him with healing was, but all he saw was what looked like some kid just standing there with some sort of staff.<br>
<br>
That was his thought until he saw Nong Shui stopped and gave a bow to the young looking girl.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(41, 105, 176)">“I hope you are having a pleasant day Miss Xia, this is the young man who I was telling you about earlier he could greatly use your assistance in getting better at healing magic."</span><br>

Like one of those samurai from the Republic of Kuridan yet…” </span>She’d start laughing again.<br>
<br>
Ryuuji just stood there, trying his best to keep his composure and not say a word, yeah this was a great start apparently he was supposed to be mentored by some kid.<br>
<br>
Nong Shui gave her another bow,<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(41, 105, 176)">“It’s nice to see you two getting along so well already. I take it you’ll take care of things from here Miss Xia..and thank you, I really appreciate it, success with him could improve our chances of meeting our goals.”</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(84, 172, 210)">“I-I’ll try my best.” </span>she regained enough composure to give a more obviously practiced  feminine bow back.<br>
<br>
She then turned to Ryuuji. <span style="color: rgb(84, 172, 210)">“Well, get in here then, and let’s see what we’re working with.” </span>She said with an edge of impatience almost, to which Ryuuji gave her a bow again before heading in and begin to explain his situation after she asked him details.<br>
<br>
<br>
As for Saoirse the library was looking as grand as it had earlier. On her way there she had likely noticed some other non monk beasts as Ryuuji had, even if they weren’t in great numbers, the visitors had increased.<br>
<br>
Once she arrived the first thing in the library which probably stood out was the large golden statue towering in the space like yesterday. Once again there were monks who were studying and writing with ink on scrolls. None of them seemed to mind Saoirse’s presence but even if they did would any speak up given her class? Nevertheless it was pretty clear the library-like area hadn’t exactly been optimized for visitors unlike the item area. While there were some labels on the library shelves in beastial a many were related to concepts of the order, thankfully for her there were some scrolls organized and which were labeled in such a way that it was clear they discussed the topic of reincarnation, the author names suggesting they were written by people who were high ranking members of the order.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">Arranog<br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/2850be0f-ba1f-410c-aaff-bf1901e00413-1-png.1132261/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/1069/1069390-a67cf2cf346d41d56dfeca4d91cea5a6.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="2850be0f-ba1f-410c-aaff-bf1901e00413-1.png" title="2850be0f-ba1f-410c-aaff-bf1901e00413-1.png" width="100" height="147" loading="lazy"></a></span></b><br>
<br>​</div><br>
The silence in the library didn’t last forever however, as a tall shirtless man with some dragonic like features casually walked his way into the space not really seeming to care much about how much noise he was making, looking around the scene a bit bored, before he set his eyes onto Saoirse, his  tail shifting around a bit behind him.<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><span style="color: rgb(209, 213, 216)"><b>???</b></span><br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/elf-png.1132262/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/1069/1069391-4639e0745d31da67f0092f4b7f6c1fa6.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="elf.png" title="elf.png" width="100" height="147" loading="lazy"></a>​</div><br>
Not far off there behind him appeared to be a white long haired young adult elf woman who looked rather nervous, a chained collar around her neck, with links leading to the dragon man’s left hand  like a leash. If one got a closer look they’d see some bruising on her wrists.  She also wasn’t wearing much more than some very basic silver colored  plant fiber shorts and  a similar material top which exposed her midriff at least offering some coverage for her chest. She was carrying what appeared to be some sort of largish broad sword which had a red gemmed hilt on the center which didn’t look like it was the easiest for her to carry.<br>
<br>
Without much regard for the volume of his voice the dragonic man called out to Saoirse<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)"> “&lt;Hey there little lady, what’s someone as pretty as you doing hitting the books in a place like this? Isn’t it a total bore? The name’s Arranog. I’m guessing you came here cause those monks are looking to fund raise or whatever, but nobody said you couldn’t enjoy yourself. Why don’t you come hang out with a real beast like your’s truly?&gt;</span><br>
<br>
 He began to flex somewhat flamboyantly showing off his musculature once more, not paying much mind to the elf who struggled a bit to readjust with his sudden jerking movement.<br>
<br>
Between flexing he continued, <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;I can guarantee you whatever's in those scroll has nothing  nearly as interesting as me telling you about one of my grand adventures, I really think it’s a no brainer. So what do ya say?&gt;”</span> He announced again, the monks around them visibly doing their best to focus and not be distracted by him.</div>

She yawned and stretched as she was waking up a little whilst heading over to the library. It felt like everything was pretty much as they left it yesterday. Reaching into her pack, she took out a carrot for breakfast. That was one stereotype she didn't mind spreading. Carrots were good. What else was there to say? That said, the place being as she left it meant their plans would not have to change. She could go scout out for the scrolls she wanted. Reincarnation. Occasionally hopping up a bit with her [Jump F] rabbit legs to check what was on the higher shelves, she eventually found them, gathering them up in her arms to carry over to a better place to read them. <br>
<br>
Sadly enough, she couldn't enjoy her find for long. She hadn't even opened up the first scroll when some loud obnoxious fellow barged in. Everything about him annoyed her the very moment she first saw him. She wondered, for a moment. Was there any profit to be made from a man like this? She doubted he'd be worth enslaving. Those with a big ego were tough to break and make obedient. Besides, if she broke his spirit along with his ego, there would be little left to make flourish afterwards. Yet it was clear a lizard-brain like him wasn't going to develop much on his own. She clicked her tongue. This is why even among beasts, some species were clearly not meant to be of higher caste. Eitehr way, that wasn't the point right now.<br>
<br>
She eyed his slave. Another warrior-woman. Elven, in this case. Clearly treated in a less than optimal manner. The only reason to chain up and misuse a slave was to use them as an example for others slaves. Create a bit of fear or even a 'at least I'm better off' sentiment to make them do their jobs better. Considering he didn't seem to own any other slaves, or at least not have them around, she doubted that was his intention. Perhaps a simple power-play? Tssk. Lame. The true power-play was having slaves as willingly obedient as Ryuuji and Melia. Fools that didn't understand such basics weren't really worth her time. Except, maybe he was? Well, not him... She eyed the slave again, trying to appraise her. You'd expect an Elf to be more of a magic type, being a Fae, but she was wielding a sword for some reason. Yet it didn't seem like that was her natural weapon. Or was she carrying his weapon for him? Could be. Still. A Fae, huh, those could be interesting to try make flourish. That gave her an idea. She'd humour this man for a bit.<br>
<br>
At least that was the plan... What had he been saying again? She clicked her tongue. She'd barely paid any attention to what he was saying. Not the brightest move if she wanted to extort him. Ah, but she'd only just decided on wanting to do so, so perhaps she could be forgiven? As she justified herself like that, she got even more excited. After all, she did learn one thing from buying her previous two slaves. The slaves most likely to cooperate with her ideals of developing them into flourishing were the ones convinced that they escaped a faith far worse than what Saoirse had in store for them. This might be such a case. <br>
<br>
Needlessly to say, unless he had some great levels of insight, the lizard folk would merely see Saoirse stare at him and his slave for a while, looking deep in thought. Perhaps he could convince himself she was checking out his abs while at it. She herself figured she'd assume what he was saying to her was something about his name and probably why he visited here. She hadn't caught either, but she might as well state hers as it looked like he wanted an answer. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;I'm Saoirse Desrosiers. I was here to read up on some topics of interest and see if these frogs can teach my slaves some new skills.&gt;”</b></span><br>
<br>
She stated, as she was debating how to proceed from here. Luckily enough, a thought arose. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;I'm assuming you're here for similar reasons? Or are you here for your own training?&gt;”</b></span> She clicked her tongue a bit. This was where it might become a bit fun. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;After all, you seem like a strong fellow who could easily beat any and all of these frogs, but you clearly have a lot to learn about being a proper slave trainer.&gt;”</b></span> A compliment to bait him and an insult to challenge him. That was the line she was throwing out. Now let's see if she could make him bite and catch on.</div>

Thankfully for Ryuuji so far the training hadn’t been so bad. Even if they looked like a kid..granted Ryuuji wasn’t so sure if this Xia was beast or fae..or maybe some combination there of? She had physical qualities which could describe both, so it probably wouldn’t be the best idea to express that he was questioning her age to her in a forward fashion. The more important thing was listening to what she had to say so that he could improve his magical abilities.<br>
<br>
Ryuuji went through the steps of explaining to Miss Xia that his particular magic should be castable without the need for the use of a catalyst at a base level, yet for some reason it didn’t seem like the magic wanted to flow properly through him, and he wasn’t sure why. Granted the information which he had been given on being reincarnated didn’t exactly feel the most complete as it could have been retrospectively.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(44, 130, 201)">Miss Xia</span></b><br>

<br>
<span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">“I..would say that is an accurate summary of the current situation..I should be able to not only cast healing but this particular art which I’ve studied in should allow me to support allies in other ways as well..” </span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(44, 130, 201)">“Well if it’s really a catalyst free casting art and the key to it as you say is your hands, lemme see what’s going on.”</span><br>
<br>
Ryuuji nodded in agreement, lowering and extending his hands to her.<br>
<br>
The young looking one then took a hold of Ryuuji’s open hands with her interesting appendages and her eyes lit up a bluish hue. Ryuuji then felt an odd warmth move through his hands, like some sense that she was looking deeper than anyone else had so far..the whole feeling was just so strange. Was she using some sort of appraisal ability on him that would let her see something of use? He supposed only time would tell.<br>

<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">Melia Hayward<br>

While that was going on Melia was still diligently training with the older frog man away from the rest of the group as he continued to show her very baseline offensive and defensive  stances for the martial art sword style. Every now and again Melia would ask a clarifying question when necessary or he would show her how to properly hold the blade and how to orientate her body better for what she was trying to achieve.<br>

Thankfully Saoirse’s hopping efforts hadn’t gone in vain since was successful in getting the scrolls which were at various reading difficulty levels. There were spaces open where she would be allowed to read in peace easily enough, with the seating areas in the library, and none of the monks appeared bothered she was there, unfortunately with the recent guest that would probably prove to be pretty difficult now without being interrupted.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">Arranog Dranth<br>

Thankfully Arranog had been so busy boasting and acting like he usually did that he didn’t particularly notice Saoirse appraising the elven slave next to him, nor did he really have amazing perception or insight skills from the looks of things, he just perceived her as giving him and his property a look over. Nor was he obvious to the fact that she hadn’t really been paying much attention to him as he spoke.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt; It’s alright you must not be used to seeing guys built like me, don’t worry spend enough time around me and you might just get used to it.&gt;” </span>He followed up with a bit of an overly confident smirk, after the extended period of silence. It looked like he had been assuming that she had in fact been checking him out, his sense of ego on display, to him why would there be any other reason she had been speechless so long.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;Saoirse Desrosiers huh? Wouldn’t surprise me if you already knew my full name, family’s kind of got a reputation, the last name’s Dranth.&gt;”</span> He further stated proudly.<br>
<br>
He didn’t seem to ask further about what she was interested in reading about.<br>
<br>
But he did seem to nod to the other part, “&lt;So you own some too then, not sure what you’re hoping to have these monks teach them about though, I mean slaves don’t exactly need to learn how to read or write, or poetry or calligraphy&gt;” He’d snicker at the later part pretty ignorant to what value could be brought from teaching those to a slave it seemed.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;I mean do I look like I need training? Sure I’ll probably humor them just to show the difference in where we stand..hopefully I won’t end up hurting any of them too badly.&gt;” </span>He presumptuously said once again.<br>
<br>
At the tongue click his left ear twitched a bit, <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;Course I’m strong, I’m way more than any of these monks could possibly hope to handle.&gt;” </span>He grinned once again with a flex, causing the elf to have to pivot again to stop herself from dropping it the sheathed weapon not calibrated for her stature or build.<br>
<br>
But after his smugness returned for that period of time when he heard the next line his face shifted to one of displeasure, getting a bit closer.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;What do you mean I’ve got something to learn about being a proper slave trainer? Last time I checked I can do whatever I feel like with them, all they need to know is  how they'll always be beneath me and to obey, so what’s the big idea?&gt;”<br>
<br>
“&lt;The only real reason this one’s even out with me is cause she recently finally stopped being such a bitch, the other ones are chained and secured back in my room, because I just don’t need the hassle right now when I’m trying to scope out the place to see if there’s anything worth my time here.&gt;” </span><br>

She wasn't saying a word, instead keeping her eyes averted from him and Saoirse, like she was just trying to keep things together.</div>

<b>Languages</b> Common | &lt;Beastial&gt;<br>
<br>
<span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;Perhaps I'm indeed not used to it.&gt;”</b></span> She replied to his boasting about his looks. It wasn't like they were bad, after all, although she wasn't one to care too much about such things unless it mattered to someone's flourishing. Then again, making an egomaniac flourish sounded like more trouble than it'd be worth.<br>
<br>
As for his family name, it didn't exactly ring a bell. Perhaps if she'd check the customer lists of her father's business she'd find it, but she didn't exactly have that on hand. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;I'm afraid you're the first Dranth with whom I have the pleasure of meeting.&gt;”</b></span> She replied, indicating she hadn't heard of the name. <br>
<br>
She chuckled at the mention of what some slaves should or shouldn't learn. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;You'd be surprised at how convenient it is if you have someone take notes for you or go through some of the more boring paperwork.&gt;”</b></span> She pointed out the obvious, wondering if this guy would be, in any way, receptive to such ideas.<span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;Poetry or calligraphy I'll admit won't easily be useful for them.&gt;”</b></span> She had to agree to that much. You'd need a very specific type of slave for that to work, which wasn't impossible, but also not all that likely.<br>
<br>
His comment on needing training also made her chuckle. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;Yes, it looks like you'd need your training and exercise to maintain such a magnificent shape~&gt;”</b></span> She wondered what sort of reaction she could get out of him by making such a peculiar statement. His claims also made her curious. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;It'd be an honour to watch you defeat them all one after the other. Perhaps with one arm behind your back..?&gt;”</b></span> She tried challenging him a little.<br>
<br>
His attempt at intimidation failed. She'd seen far scarier things, like a blazing fire elemental to hop through. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;Of course you can do what you want with them. Wouldn't be much of a point to them being a slave otherwise, no?&gt;”</b></span> She'd reply to his first statement. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;However... There are a lot more benefits to gain from them then just having them as decorations or sword-carriers, you know... at least, I'm really hoping you're not expecting her to swing that herself~&gt;”</b></span> <br>
<br>
She stared into his eyes with a hint of defiance. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;Having a slave voluntarily risk their life to protect yours or even just to serve you is one of the most magnificent feelings you can get when it comes to making someone flourish as a slave, yet having them flourish as a being can be an equally interesting challenge.&gt;”</b></span> She started off, but then realised she had no need to explain this egomaniac her philosophy. She doubted he'd be the type to understand it to begin with. Few people did. <br>
<br>
<span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;You say it yourself. If your slaves are a hassle, what's the point of having them? I can proudly say that mine are working hard to improve their value to me as we speak.&gt;”</b></span> She figured this was the time to play a gamble. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;Or are you the type to not believe that developing slaves can be a worthwhile endeavour? Or... perhaps you'd doubt my methods work?&gt;”</b></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;How about we have some fun, hmm? Your slaves against mine. We'll have the frogs act as a neutral party to determine which ones hold the most value. In fact, I'm confident enough I'll have the two of mine pitted against all of yours.&gt;”</b></span> She stated, but she figured she'd need to put in a bit more of a possible risk and reward. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;I'd normally offer to put a bet, slave for slave, but it seems you've already got enough of them to deal with...&gt;”</b></span> Besides, she had a better idea. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;So how about I'll be your date for an entire day if your slaves win? Yet, in case my two slaves turn out to be superior, I'll be taking one of yours off of your hand.&gt;”</b></span><br>
<br>
She realised a slave for a date might not be entirely enough to convince him, unless she'd play it smart. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;I'll admit that suggesting a date with me is as worthless as a slave is a bit counter-intuitive, but considering you've got your looks going for you, I'm willing to offer such a high reward~&gt;”</b></span> That should certainly make it more difficult to refuse the offer. Especially as he was already coming off on her badly enough.</div>

<br>
After some more stance training it wasn’t all too  long before the older frog man was having Melia use the basic strikes she used on him while he showcased her proper block form in response to each one. With trial and error, while it was pretty obivous the elder frog was much more experienced with this blade and martial art, Melia seemed to be getting gradually better as she went along. Eventually she and the elder frog traded off and now she was practicing blocking while he demonstrated proper striking form, and gave her feedback on how to better block and anticipate his movements. It was all and all quite fitting for a first lesson in the sword art he was showing her.<br>

Ryuuji looked back at her curiously , <span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">“‘knotted?’”</span> He questioned  quietly curiously, looked like there were still plenty of concepts he wasn’t really sure about. Hopefully whatever was going on could be remedied.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(44, 130, 201)">“Mhm, you aren’t properly controlling the flow of your magic, I like to think of it sort of like strands which can get tangled up, poor magical circulation can be like a mess that needs to be untangled which comes from experience, don’t worry nothing that many amateurs</span><br>
 <span style="color: rgb(44, 130, 201)">before you haven’t had to overcome, probably doesn’t help that casting without a catalyst can be an even more advanced art to master.”</span><br>
<br>
Ryuuji nodded, <span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">“Did..you have any idea for how I could best resolve this issue then?”</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(44, 130, 201)">“Course I do silly, that’s why Nong Shui asked me for help, I like to think I know quite a bit about this sort of thing, now then take my hands.”</span><br>

Ryuuji gave another  bow this time albeit more apologetically,<span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)"> “Of course I didn’t mean to suggest anything contrary, I fully believe in your abilities..Miss Xia.”</span> He then extended his hands toward her, to which she took them.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(44, 130, 201)">“Now then I want you to focus on feeling the magic, let me help you guide it along, before you have any hopes of gaining access to your full potential you need to get this much down..”</span><br>

Ryuuji nodded once more before he tried his best to focus and feel her magical presence as they began to work together to ‘untangle’ his magic flow to his hands.<br>

Arranog’s confident smirk returned when Saoirse said she wasn’t used to it, as he continued to show off his physique passively with the way he shifted his body. However the confident look didn’t last as long as it might have otherwise, as the smirk turned into a bit of a frown and a raised brow when she said that he was the first Dranth which she had met.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;Tch I find that hard to believe.&gt;”</span> He said a bit dismissively at the possibility that she hadn’t met a Dranth before he lit up a bit more again, <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;But then I guess that means you’re in luck since you got to meet the best one around first.&gt;” </span>His confident look returned pretty quickly,seemingly not deterred by her apparent lack of knowledge on his family’s name.<br>
<br>
Arranog looked at her a bit skeptical once more when she mentioned the benefits of teaching a slave how to read and write and do scribe work, <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;I guess those royal types do have scribes or whatever, not a terrible idea If you put like that, but you’d have to trust them not to screw up on anything too important..&gt;” </span>Arranog didn’t seem entirely against the idea with the way he spoke, but there was a suggestion that his idea of what slaves could normally be wasn’t as well developed as Saoirse’s. Regardless his smile kept true when she was in agreement with him, of course there was use for both, both art forms could be potentially monetized with the right slave, it just looked like Arranog was more pleased that she seemed to agree with him than anything.<br>
<br>
“<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">&lt;Of course you need discipline for something like this..and It is pretty difficult not to notice huh? Feel free to look as much as you’d like.&gt;” </span>The bit of overly confident suggestive edge returning to Arranog’s voice when she commenced on his shape.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;Oh you’d like to see that huh? I don’t see why I couldn’t make it happen, I bet they’d be pretty game for a lot of things if there was a higher chance of getting some coin out of it,  I doubt I’d need both arms to crush as many as I felt like.&gt;” </span>He  boasted.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;If you’re gonna stick around maybe I’ll have to see if it can be arranged.&gt;”</span><br>
He seemed a bit more passive when she discussed there being benefits of the slaves compared to his annoyance at her comment about his ability to keep slaves. He actually looked a bit more interested, but he did scoff a bit,<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;Yeah nah, that’s my sword, I don’t really feel like lugging it around to be honest. Not really worried about what she could do with it either, she already knows her place.&gt;”</span>  He reassured Saoirse.<br>
<br>
With her look of defiance he looked back, with a bit of a narrowed eye look again, but it wasn’t exactly aggressive, just a bit uncertain at what she was saying, like he was confused by it. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;I mean,  not sure  I’d go that far, but I guess that would mean you’d be a powerful slave owner.&gt;” </span>Perhaps while not understanding the extent of the philosophy or really even the true value, it Arranog appeared to understand that it was at least a good way to demonstrate one’s power to have willing slaves.<br>
<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;Improve their value on their own because they want to? I find it strange that you even bother with all that, I mean slaves just need to be good enough to do what’s needed of them, I have ways of making them do what I want to too which seems like a lot less work for me.&gt;”</span> He responded.<br>
<br>
However he did look interested when she mentioned fun.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;As if a Dranth would step down from a challenge! Of course I’ll take you on!&gt;”</span> He proclaimed confidently with his hands at his hips perking right up after listening to what she had to say on it.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;The frogs will ensure a neutral fair assessment, so I find them agreeable.&gt;”<br>
<br>
“&lt;Plus all I  really hear is a guaranteed date for us, which I can assure you will be far from the last, I’ve heard I can be pretty addictive.&gt;” </span>He’d smirk. The ego only further driven by her further compliments of his looks,<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;Even if I can already see the results, on the minuscule chance that you beat me, you can take any one you’d like.&gt;”<br>
<br>
“&lt;Anyway now that we have that settled, you gonna stay here and hit the books or you coming?&gt;”</span> He’d ask once again. At best it looked like Arranog was greatly underestimating Saoirse as a tangible threat, perhaps in part because she revealed she only had two slaves, at the very least he didn’t seem any more eager to go train his slaves.<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(209, 213, 216)">???<br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/elf-1-png.1133938/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/1071/1071067-4639e0745d31da67f0092f4b7f6c1fa6.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="elf-1.png" title="elf-1.png" width="100" height="147" loading="lazy"></a></span></b>​</div>Meanwhile the fae slave continued to stand by silently still looking overall rather nervous. If Saoirse was paying attention she’d notice that occasionally the slave appeared to instinctually wince or flinch when Arranog made a more grandiose flex or gesture that was closer to her  while he talked, as if she was automatically anticipating and bracing for the possibility of being struck.</div>

<br>
<b>Languages</b> Common | &lt;Beastial&gt;<br>
<br>
She chuckled a bit at his commend about the Dranth, still wondering if they were actually meant to be famous or not. Considering he seemed like an egomaniac, she couldn't exactly trust his word for it. Even so, she figured playing along would be more beneficial. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;How truly lucky I am~&gt;”</b></span> She replied with a smile. <br>
<br>
Although she wished to sigh at his mention of the slaves screwing up, she decided to keep it in. Of course slaves could screw up, but that's why you needed to train them. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;That's why you teach them not too or simply double-check the important stuff yourself. In the end, it'll still save you a lot of trouble.&gt;”</b></span> She was still convinced slaves could be a lot more useful than he gave them credit for. <br>
<br>
Considering how easy it was to get him to be more agreeable, she decided to keep playing around with it. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;You must've practised very commendable amount of disciple for sure, to the point that it makes me wonder whether you shouldn't be the one teaching these frogs instead.&gt;”</b></span> She stated, figuring that stroking his ego a bit more might pay off later. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;It'll take my some discipline of my own to focus my eyes elsewhere~&gt;”</b></span><br>
<br>
On the other hand, she loved how easy it was to bait him into a challenge. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;Seeing you beat up some silly frogs with just a single hand would be a lovely sight~&gt;”</b></span> She stated, as it probably would be, although she secretly hoped to see him getting his ass handed to him even more. Then again, if he won, he'd show her these frogs weren't worth staying at. If he lost, she'd know the frogs were worth something. Either outcome would be useful.<br>
<br>
As expected, he at least wasn't as foolish as to give the slave a sword she could barely even carry around. Still, to have a slave lug it around felt like it was little more than a risk of seeing it damaged or getting lost. To here, there was little added benefit to such an act.<br>
<br>
To her surprise, however, he seemed to be capable of grasping the concept of having willing slaves. At least to a degree. She wondered if it'd be worth trying to teach him a few tricks to see if she could have him pay off a debt or show some gratitude for it later. For now, she'd keep the option open. <br>
<br>
At his mention of improving value, she shrugged. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;Perhaps I'm just a lot more demanding on what I want from my slaves. I might be noble, but I don't have bottomless coffers of money to spent, so I'd rather ensure the slaves I got are worth as much as possible to me.&gt;”</b></span> She wasn't above admitting to having some slight recourse shortages at times if that might be of use later. <br>
<br>
Now, his acceptance of her challenge got a laugh out of her. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;That's great~! A fun game where I'll win even if I loose, I couldn't be more lucky~&gt;”</b></span> She replied, deciding to let him have his moment, whilst hoping Ryuuji and Melia would crush whatever challenges came at them. Even if she didn't mind play coy with the man her and there, a full date wasn't exactly something she'd be as eager about as getting to pick a new slave.<br>
<br>
There was one thing she wondered about. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;You know, slaves can be like dogs sometimes.&gt;”</b></span> She looked at the slave again. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;If you punish them without them realising why they're being punished for, they might only get confused and more useless as they won't comprehend their wrongdoing and learn from it.&gt;”</b></span> She shrugged. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;I got no clue what the deal is with this one, but it seems she's expecting punishment at any moment, which is distracting at best and annoying at worst. It seems she hasn't linked punishable actions and accompanying punishments at all and just expects them at random.&gt;”</b></span> The latter was probably what happened, but she figured she'd not be that direct to this lizard.<br>
<br>
With all that said, the topic of their 'game' was up again. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;I'd gladly leave it to you to set-up something with the frogs. I'll be going through these texts for a bit and join you when all is set-up. A girl like me needs a break after meeting a guy like you~&gt;”</b></span> She teased him again at the end.<br>
<br>
That said, when he was out of sight and hearing range, her tone would switch. After looking around, she'd call for one of the frogs. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;The monks here have a more pacifist way of dealing with slaves, no?&gt;”</b></span> She'd ask to reconfirm. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;I'm sure you've overheard our conversation. If you want to prove less violent methods work, you'll know what to do when you're deciding topics the upcoming challenges. Just don't make it too obvious.&gt;”</b></span> She'd state as if it was the most normal thing ever.<br>
<br>
Well... technically she wasn't asking them to <i>cheat</i>, just to set-up the game a tad bit more in favour of showing of the type of qualities her slaves could display over what those of Dranth could. She figured the frogs would consider that much to be an acceptable type of advantage to give her based on their ethics, which would help her get what she wanted out of this. <br>
<br>
With that mentioned, she'd finally have a bit of time to gloss through the texts on reincarnation. Truthfully, she'd lost some of her curiosity and interest by now, but she'd already gathered all the scrolls, so she might as well check them out.</div>

Before getting into an actual sparing match, the Frog man appeared to have a moment of clarity, before placing the practice blade down, he then began to demonstrate a variety of stretches, to get the body limber and ready to rumble, commenting that he realized that they probably should have done those first, but had been eager to get into the action like when he was young. Melia didn’t seem to mind regardless, she was very agreeable and acted politely, which allowed her teacher to feel respected, setting up some ideal conditions for long term flourishing should they stay long enough for her to get proper training.<br>

He could almost feel it, but like it wasn’t quite connecting right. He wondered if should have been more specific to that god-like figure that had reincarnated him, like maybe don’t let him take powers which weren’t going to work as intended unless he fixed issues, but just like anything else it was part of the learning process he supposed. The only reassuring thing was that whatever magic touch she was doing seemed to be helping him along quite a bit as he could feel the ‘unraveling’ process take place, maybe if they kept at this long enough it would result in him being able to try some sort of evidence that he could use his healing ability without a catalyst as intended.<br>
<br>
Ryuuji continued to try to supply his mana into the process whilst being guided with manipulation techniques.<br>

His smirk was still quite prominent when Saoirse only further reiterated how lucky she was to be in the presence of a Dranth like himself,  being acknowledged how he believed he should be appeared to be working to Saorise’s benefit for the time being.<br>
<br>
It was a good move for Saoirse to hold back her sigh at what he said, since she had an upper hand with the current strategy.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(209, 72, 65)">“&lt;Yeah Yeah..I guess that makes sense when you put it that way, but I think it’d be better if they could just get it right the first time, this one here took more than a few times of experiencing discipline to finally start getting things right..&gt;”<br>
<br>
“&lt;Course I did, discipline is like..totally one of best of my many best qualities..and it’s only natural I’d be better off teaching them,  not sure if they’d be able to keep up with my routine though in all honesty, it’s pretty tough..&gt;”</span><br>
<br>
He seemed even more pleased when she said something that could have been interpreted as flirting, even if it hadn’t genuinely been made that way, at hearing that he gave her another flex, <span style="color: rgb(209, 72, 65)">“&lt;Heh see what I mean, you won’t have to worry about that when we go out, then you can look as much as you’d like.&gt;” </span>He said this all quite assertively and matter of fact at that.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(209, 72, 65)">“&lt;Hey I’ll show you what I can do like I said, can’t promise any of them won’t get hurt though even if they work together,  and even if I went easy on them.&gt;” </span>He gloated a bit more.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(209, 72, 65)">“&lt;When you’re a natural predator and as strong as me it’s harder than it looks to properly restrain yourself..&gt;”</span><br>
<br>
<br>
He appeared to listen to her when she shrugged, not particularly bothered by her words but not particularly moved, a bit neutral, just sort of giving her a look over, perhaps in a way which suggested he was checking her out while she spoke.<br>
<br>
However the laugh did prompt another confident smile out of him, <span style="color: rgb(209, 72, 65)">“&lt;Yeah I’d say it’s a win win, given how the results are going to be you’re probably be more fortunate that way since I’d say a date with me is much more valuable than any one who you could take.&gt;” </span>Of course he was still speaking as if he had already won, while this might have been his perception it was more likely he had done much less than Saoirse in terms of properly taking care of his slaves or making them more valuable.<br>
<br>
His smirk changed into a more displeased look and a scoff when she mentioned the slaves were like dogs part, and she commented on how his slave was behaving. It wasn’t at what she said but more so looked like he found the topic of this one to not be his favorite subject.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(209, 72, 65)">“&lt;I know right..this one wouldn’t stop talking about Fae supremacy and how there’d be people coming to get her, insulted me, said a bunch of other really stupid things, did it till I got tired of and  I eventually got her to shut up, like the other ones, but it took longer than I would have cared for, not sure what the big deal is, her life is to make me happy and in return she’ll have an easier time..I’m not sure why that was such a difficult topic to understand. But I mean look at her now, don’t you think she’s pretty subservient, I say I did a pretty good job at showing her whose in charge anyway.&gt;” I</span>t seemed he was more interested in giving his perspective and complaining about her rather than  directly addressing what commentary of wisdom Saoirse had given about the dogs, even if had heard her.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(209, 72, 65)">“&lt;Oh yeah? I can go do that, you’ll be ready to come see me after getting some reading time? I doubt the frogs care much when there's possible money for their monastery on the line or whatever, I could probably throw some coin their way even to speed up the process so you can watch me totally dominate them. But yeah I get it, I am a lot to take in~ I know it’s not much but maybe after I beat those frogs up you might like to come back to my room and see the others? Then you’ll have a chance to see that I’m pretty good at slave keeping too.&gt;”</span> He offered.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b>???<br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/elf-1-1-png.1135179/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/1072/1072308-4639e0745d31da67f0092f4b7f6c1fa6.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="elf-1-1.png" title="elf-1-1.png" width="100" height="147" loading="lazy"></a></b>​</div><br>
<span style="color: rgb(209, 72, 65)">“&lt;Anyway see ya, and enjoy your strange texts.&gt;” </span>He then tugged the elf slave along, which she then followed not saying a word, seeming to still struggle with the sword. Thankfully both of them were out of view not long after leaving the library presumably to go set up a sparring match.<br>
<br>
One of the nearby frog monks who looked sort of similar to the older frog training Melia except younger nodded, he was dressed in the common blue uniform as many of his compatriots were.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(97, 189, 109)">“&lt;I understand what you are getting at, and yes that is true we believe in treating others with kindness regardless of their status, what that Dranth demonstrated is less than savory in my opinion..I heard  that Nong Shui invited you in, I can certainly discuss, the possibility of picking events which should help teach a valuable lesson.&gt;”</span> He replied giving Saoirse a nod and then a slight wink toward the latter sentence.<br>
<br>
By the time she was able to look over the reincarnation texts she would see some different ideas presented before her, there were some notes on more obscure gods and goddesses who were related to reincarnation, that wasn’t atypical in the West Empire where there were many religions at play all over, however there were also texts with more uniform ideas. One was a form which believed that there was a path to enlightenment through being good in one’s life with the eventual goal to break free of the cycle of reincarnation and ascend to a higher plain. The consequence for living a highly immoral bad life was possibly being sent into a place known as “the void” which was like wandering in darkness. There was text that looked like it had been written in more of a Kuridan style which was very similar to what the Western Empire text mentioned.  Some of the texts were more ornate than others, some with crushed gemstone put into the ink, making them look illuminated with art. Others much more plain and clinical looking. A more  interesting section to Saoirse however might have been one which had been written by a Western Kuridan Philosopher Ye Yan who had been highly educated. Their work spoke of there being the potential for people being brought into the realm of IH through reincarnation, and that there were some people who believed they saw a similarly looking elderly figure, a god of sorts who had spoken to them or told them different things, and some memories of people were much clearer than others. While the text wasn’t conclusive on the issue it did discuss the topic and catalog some of the experiences for reflection. Some of the text was more difficult to understand conceptually  without a religious background, while others were more friendly to the non educated, thankfully this one had been written in a bit more of a casual reader friendly way. She had some more time to explore if she so desired.</div>

<br>
She'd played along well enough with most of what Dranth was saying. Some things she was looking forwards to. Seeing him loose to the frogs would be pretty hilarious, although if he'd win, she'd know to stop wasting time here, so either outcome would be useful. Still, she wasn't sure if she'd be able to avoid laughing, were he to loose to the frogs, so she'd best assure she'd get her slave first. Either that, or perhaps she could make Dranth's fight against the frogs the first part of their date. Oh... that'd be fun. Even if she lost the slave bet, seeing him beaten up by the frogs could mean she'd get out of having to date him. On the other hand, if he were to win both the slave bet and a fight against the frogs, he'd actually be a worthwhile date. A good thing to keep in mind.<br>
<br>
All things considered, she couldn't abstain from chuckling at the thought of Fae supremacy. Such a moronic notion could only be laughed at, after all. She wasn't foolish enough to deny the fact that some of those magical creatures were rather strong, but the vast majority were just forest-dwelling twigs compared to the noble beastfolk. She still wasn't entirely sure if just beating her into submission to the point she feared being beaten at any movement was the ideal way to deal with it, as she still doubted how much his discipline really taught the elf, but at least she sort-off understood why he'd done so. Having a slave think they're better than you would be rather infuriating, after all. <br>
<br>
On the other hand, however, Saoirse had a feeling there was a considerable chance this slave would slid Drarth's throat one night, if given the chance. It was a world of difference. She trusted Melia and Ryuuji well enough to stand guard for her at night, whilst she'd be worried enough about such a slave to want someone to stand guard against her. It's what made her realise that simple beating someone into submission definitely wasn't her style. She wanted them to believe that serving her was their best option, to not even really long for freedom. That was far more desirable than mere submission out of fear of punishment. Needlessly to say, she didn't waste much more time and energy trying to explain that to Dranth. <br>
<br>
<span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;I can see the others when you bring them out for our bet, can't I?&gt;”</b></span> She relied to his offer to come back to his room. She wasn't going to set foot in there that easily. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;That'll give you more than enough opportunity to show off how well you can keep slaves.&gt;”</b></span> Or how much he sucked at it, which she still believed to be the case.<br>
<br>
With Dranth finally out of sight, she could sigh deeply. He could definitely be an opportunity, but it'd take some work. Luckily enough, her guess about the frogs was correct. She smiled. Goody-two-shoes were so easily manipulated, it was almost too easy. Even so, this was great. She didn't care too much about lessons, she had a bet to win, but if both those things were aligned, she'd gladly play moral compass in this story. <br>
<br>
With what she'd planned, it was a bit troublesome to get into the texts. Upon reading about some reincarnation theory, she realised she was glad she'd been leading a good life, focussed on making her slaves flourish, being patient with lower caste fools and using violence only as a final resort. Perhaps the fact she'd lived like that in her past life as well was why she'd reincarnated here, rather than into that void. She wondered, if she'd gotten more results, more slaves, more flourishing, would she have reached that higher plain? Perhaps...<br>
<br>
What stood out more, however, was the mention of reincarnate from other realms in specific, by some Ye Yan from West Kuridan. That was worth investigation for sure. She wondered if the philosopher was still alive, as she'd like to meet them. For now, however, that was all she wanted to know. Figuring she'd be 'nice' for now, as she still needed favours from these frogs, she actually took the effort to put the scrolls back where she found them. It's a task she'd normally leave to the lower castes, but making a good impression upon the frogs would aid her chances of manipulating them further later on, which was a worthy pay-off.<br>
<br>
That said, it seemed like it was about time to meet up with Melia. Considering it'd likely take a bit more for Dranth to set things up with the frogs, she could still check out those baths. Good. Having put the scrolls back, she made her way to the baths, seeing if they were busy and going through their lay-out to find the best spot/place... and of course seeing if Melia was already awaiting her there at one spot or another.</div>

On his way out the dragonic slave owner just had a bit more to say, being the type who liked to get the last words in it seemed. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;Oh, so we’re playing a bit hard to get now huh?&gt; </span>He said almost with a teasing tone, <br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;Yeah yeah that’s fine with me I’ll just show you them then, and you’ll see just how effective my method of total domination is.&gt;”</span> He reaffirmed.<br>
<br>
With that all out of the way Saoirse was finally able to just chill out and do the reading which she had been trying to do earlier before she had been interrupted by the apparent potential suitor.<br>
<br>
The frogs on the other hand didn’t seem to sense an ulterior self-serving motive from Saoirse with the way she had proposed her plan. The good thing was it just so happened that her motive to win the bet, and the monk’s apparent desire to uphold some sort of lesson about the preferred way to own a slave just happened to line up with Saoirse’s goal. With them being so agreeable it looked like that plan would go off without a hitch, presuming that  she was right about Arranog not being the best slave owner to cultivate additional value in his slaves.<br>
<br>
Thankfully no one else appeared to bother her while she did her reading. Some of the nearby frog monks took notice of Saoirse’s effort to put the scrolls back neatly and one of the ones next to the one who had caught her attention commented softly toward her direction,<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(0, 168, 133)">“&lt;Thank you for being so respectful of our literature collection, unfortunately not all visitors are as thoughtful as you are.&gt;” </span>Little did the young adult frog monk with a decidedly masculine voice have any idea of what Saoirse had been doing up until that point.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">Melia Hayward</span></b><br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/gyomdvf-jpg.1135873/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/1073/1073002-16450e91d710f396cf954ba1e867d99e.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="GYOmdVf.jpg" title="GYOmdVf.jpg" width="100" height="100" loading="lazy"></a>​</div><br>
The time which Melia’s training took actually lined up pretty well with meeting Saoirse where she said she was going too. After she completed the initial training set and warm ups to start getting into this traditional martial West Empire sword art, of course she made her way back to the Spirit Pool which had been set up in such a way that bathing would be possible in the central area in the zen-like garden space.<br>
<br>
When Saoirse got there she would see that Melia showed signs that she had been hard at work with the way she sat on the edge of the water with her feet in the water, suggesting that perhaps she was still a bit sore from the training.<br>
<br>
Upon her Mistress arriving she  immediately stood up and gave her a bow of respect. <br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">“Greetings Ma’am, thank you again for inviting me, I’ll go wherever you’d like us too.”</span><br>
<br>
The nice thing was that now that it was about midday, there weren’t all that many others in the water currently, thankfully it was pretty sizable too, some privacy offered with the surrounding plant life, as well as a few nice  wooden canopies with benches on some sides of the bathing area where one could rest and not be in direct sunlight if they did not desire to be.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">“Were you successful in your activities this morning?”</span> She asked respectfully, seemingly out of genuine curiosity and care.<br>
<br>
There were several spots which could provide some back support if desired, some a bit more private than others depending on what was desired.<br>
<br>
The water itself was pleasantly warm and still took on that vibrant hue like one might expect in a fine art painting.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)"><b>Ryuuji Kamimura</b></span><b> &amp; </b><span style="color: rgb(44, 130, 201)"><b>Miss Xia<br>

For Ryuuji however it had taken him quite some time to work through with Miss Xia just how he was supposed to deal with his magic issue, a large bulk of the time spent had been him and her incrementally dealing with the apparent ‘tangle’ which was going on in his body when he tried to utilize his magic as he was supposed to without using a catalyst.<br>
<br>
Given how many hours they had been at it he periodically had to take breaks from the exertion. The good news was that on occasion, Miss Xia was able to supplement more energy into him when he was running low, so that they could get back to it, only when he truly felt the toll did he stop. Even if he wasn’t training physically hard like Melia was, with how much energy he was using it sure felt like it.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">“Thank you..Miss Xia I appreciate your help..I believe it will truly allow me to reach my true potential faster, and I am grateful that someone of my caste has the opportunity to work with someone as skillful and prestigious like yourself..”</span><br>
<br>
Miss Xia smiled, <span style="color: rgb(44, 130, 201)">“Well yeah, I am pretty awesome right? That’s like I said, again, kinda of the whole reason Nong Shui sent you to me, but even for a human, I sense quite a bit of potential within you, so keep at it Ryuuji and when we get past this first blockage in the path, I’ll be able to really start teaching you some useful skills.”</span><br>
<br>
Eventually another blue clad frog monk came out with some dumplings, sweet and sour tofu soup,  and tea for the pair, to which they both sat together and partook, which Ryuuji was quite thankful for, he had not eaten in quite some time.  It tasted quite delicious too..once this was all set and he was energized physically he’d get back to it. If he could do it today, he had no doubt it would impress Saoirse if he could perform as he had been advertised to her when he had been sold. It only seemed like the most logical way to improve his value and by extension a chance at an even higher quality of life.</div>

<br>
She'd allow Dranth to have the last word <s>as to not time-bend so much into the past that she'd risk causing a disruption in the space-time continuum</s> due to knowing she'd be the one to have the last laugh soon enough. <br>
<br>
<span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;Naturally.&gt;”</b></span> She'd replied to the frog with a smile. Having these folk think she was a naturally kind person would only make it all the easier to get what she wanted out of them, as it seemed insanely easy to make them think so. <br>
<br>
That said, keeping up the act had her a bit tired. She knew she was a good enough person, but she didn't like trying to be overly polite to lower castes without proper need for it. That always felt too <i>extra</i> to keep up. It's why she was glad she got to relax for a bit. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“A more quiet spot.”</b></span> She simple replied. She wasn't exactly used to greeting back a slave and didn't figure she'd need to act <i>that much</i> like a goody-two-shoes towards these frogs.<br>
<br>
Upon finding a somewhat private spot, she stretched. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Well enough.”</b></span> She replied, still in thought, as she took off her clothes and placed them upon one of the nearby benches. She wasn't the type to be ashamed easily, as she was convinced she had nothing to be ashamed about. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“You should join me.”</b></span> She then stated to Melia, gesturing to a spot across from her. A respectful distance away, even though some might say sharing the same bath with a slave was already degrading. Saoirse had more important worries in mind though. <br>
<br>
She leaned down into the water, letting the pleasant warmth cover her entire body, other than her head and ears. She wasn't sure what what in this water, but it was definitely worth it. She was about to close her eyes and relax, when she realised she had a job to do. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Some fool thought he knew better how to deal with Slaves than I do. You and Ryuuji are to prove him wrong later today, so get your rest while you can. If this water's got any good properties to it, you'll be able to make good use of it soon enough.”</b></span> She explained.<br>
<br>
Ah, right, she should also ask. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“What did the frogs teach you thus far?”</b></span> It'd probably be good to check on whether or not it sounded like they were doing something useful with her slave of if they were just wasting precious development time.</div>

Indeed so far Saoirse had had very little open skepticism of her purposes there, if she were fortunate enough perhaps that trend would continue throughout her visit. Even with the demands she made earlier, she had done a pretty good job of putting up a public face that she wasn’t only looking to primarily meet only her interests with every action that she had taken so far.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)"><b>Melia Hayward<br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/gyomdvf-jpg.1136431/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/1073/1073560-16450e91d710f396cf954ba1e867d99e.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="GYOmdVf.jpg" title="GYOmdVf.jpg" width="100" height="100" loading="lazy"></a></b></span>​</div><br>
Melia gave a respectful nod in response, before diligently following her mistress to the chosen more private spot provided by some of the greenery in the garden area. Thankfully it was a gated area around the perimeter to give some additional privacy<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">“It's a privilege which I do not take for granted  to be here with you, one which I really appreciate. ” </span><br>
<br>
She responded politely once more. After they got to the spot she removed her clothing also placing it near the bench but being careful with how she placed it, as not to make direct contact with Saoirse’s own garb. Her well worked physical physique now on display some once more thanks to the long term effort she had put into becoming a much more capable warrior. Despite the strength there of course was evidence of the physical battering which she had undergone from long past activities which still lingered on her form. While some might call it imperfect, others would argue it gave Melia more character and proved the hard work she had put in to get the point in life that she was at.<br>
<br>
First she would wait for Saoirse to take her spot first of course, out of respect, not wanting to get in her way. Once Saoirse looked like she had gotten into a comfortable position. <br>
<br>
Melia then carefully made her way over to the bathing spot which Saoirse had gestured too, making her way into the water.<br>
<br>
It became apparent that she was enjoying the temperature as a calmer look fell upon her face not long after. Truthfully even if she didn’t verbally express it the so called apparently blessed water felt really good on her body after her earlier work out.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">“Wherever this water comes from....it feels quite nice.” </span>She commented softly. Of course there was a lack of certainty if it was actually as beneficial as Nong Shui had said, it certainly didn’t hurt to try, who knew maybe it’d actually prove some use later like Saoirse said.<br>
<br>
However Melia was at attention when Saoirse answered the question she asked, giving an appropriate amount of eye contact and facing her.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">“I agree it’s laughable that anyone would make that claim against you, I’ll do whatever it takes to impress you, whatever the challenge is.” </span><br>
Melia was quick to respond, taking on a more confident and assertive tone. Very much sounding like she wanted to assure Saoirse that her decision to trust her with this important task was put into good hands.<br>
<br>
When Melia heard a question posed toward her, she was quick to respond, a bit of a smile forming on her face.<br>

<span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">“I think you’ll be most pleased to hear that one of the monks demonstrated to me a traditional monastic West Empire martial sword art using training swords. He showed me how to warm up properly, foot work, stances, as well as blocking and striking techniques. It was something different than what I’m used to, that’s for sure, but I think you’ll see that even after my first session I’ll have picked up some tricks which’ll help me moving forward, maybe even sooner if there’s any need for combat skills in the upcoming event.”  </span><br>
<br>
Melia almost sounded excited to share what she learned with her owner, which was probably a good sign if nothing else since that would convey to Saoirse that she had at least found it useful in her goal of becoming the best warrior she could possibly be.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">Ryuuji Kamimura<br>

By the time the pair’s bath time had concluded and presumably they had been able to have a leisurely one with talk here and there as Saoirse desired and they had gotten back into their clothing to head out to do anything else Saoirse wanted them to before the meeting with Arranog for the bet,  it wasn’t long before Ryuuji was leaving his session with Miss Xia, he felt much more tired than he looked at that point.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)"><i>Who would have thought untangling magic like that would be so strenuous? It’s not like I had to do some insane work out like Melia..Like seriously that whole experience just made me feel even weaker than I did in my last life</i></span> He thought to himself. The good news was however was that with hard work he had finally been able to undo the problem which had been plaguing him for as long as he had lost that training catalyst. <i><span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">That god really has some nerve letting me think I was all set with the abilities I selected..</span></i>Ryuuji couldn’t help but internally think to himself as well, practically grumbling to himself.  As he walked along through the complex every now and again he found beasts looking at him, some a bit more skeptical than others, but by this point he was pretty well used to it. <br>
<br>
Hopefully the rest of the day would be pretty low key, unknown to Ryuuji that was far from the case and it was likely that he was going to have to perform in another high stakes event where he wasn’t going to be allowed to take on his side character persona, but instead was going to be thrown into the limelight as a main character once again.<br>
<br>
However it was at that point he saw Saoirse and Melia not all that far away from the gated bathes at that point, so he quickly made his way over, before making a low bow once again, needing to put in the effort to get low enough for Saoirse given her height, but just like the looks he had gotten used to that too.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">“I would like to report that my first session was a success, Miss Saoirse. For the rest of the day I am currently free for whatever you deem fit.”</span> He stated with a respectful tone as perusal, not speaking or bowing until he was absolutely certain he wouldn’t be interrupting anything important. For now he was at attention, ready for her.</div>

<br>
<span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“I know, right?”</b></span> She chuckled a bit upon Melia's agreement that it was laughable that anyone would claim to be better. She knew that Dranth's slaves would never admit such a thing so openly and honestly, which was already making her feel [Prideful] and superior. <br>
<br>
She nodded at Melia's explanations. She was a bit worried at first. Melia didn't need to learn new fighting styles, she just needed to improve upon what she already had. Luckily enough, it sounded like that's exactly what they did through their warm-ups, foot-work and whatnot. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Good, good. So you'd say these frogs were worth it thus far?”</b></span> She'd ask, wanting to reconfirm she'd understood Melia's assessment of them well enough.<br>
<br>
Upon meeting with Ryuuji a bit later, he would give her his report without the need to ask about it. That'd speed things up a bit. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Good, good.”</b></span> She nodded. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“So the frogs helped you continue to access more of your magic, then?”</b></span> She asked, a bit curious as to what exactly Ryuuji had been taught thus far.<br>
<br>
As for his statement of being free, she smiled. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Good. I hope you've got some energy left, as you might need it.”</b></span> Her smile turned into a mischievous smirk, as she checked to confirm nobody was around. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“I found some big lizardfolk, more muscle than brains. He believed the only proper way to train a slave was to beat them into submission, but all I could see was wasted potential, so I challenged him to have the frogs set-up a competition to see which of our slaves performs better. Considering the frogs are setting it up...”</b></span> she looked around again, just to be safe <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“... I'm assuming you might have an advantage. He does seem to have a fair few slaves, however, so you might be up against more than one person in whatever challenges they bring.”</b></span><br>
<br>
The best part was yet to come, however, as she pondered whether she'd share it or not. In the end, she figured she'd do so. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“If you two perform well enough, you might even gain a new companion.”</b></span> There was, of course, the possibility of them loosing, in which case she'd have to 'date' this Dranth and might be a tad more inclined to test out his methods. Even so, she decided not to share such thoughts. For now, she'd use her own method. In this case, that would be positive reinforcement. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“How about this. Ryuuji, if you manage to impress me well enough and we win this, I'll give you limit power to command the newest slave to join our ranks. Melia, if you manage impress, I'll splurge on getting you new gear soon.”</b></span> Such 'high' rewards should definitely get her slaves motivated to give it their all.</div>

Melia appeared to be receptive with her smile at Saoirse’s chuckle, like she was pleased that she had managed that much.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">“I would say so. I’ve learned some fundamentals which I believe will help and compliment my already existing combat abilities, in an offensive and defensive capacity based on what I learned. Some of the monks here are a bit deceptive if you were to base them on a surface level appearance, the one who is training me is quite advanced in age from what I can tell yet he was more than capable of keeping pace with me and appeared to have masterful form from what I could tell at least.”</span><br>
<br>
That news might be a good sign for Saoirse’s chances at the bet she had made with the Dranth, if there were more monks like the one which Melia described.<br>
---<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">Ryuuji Kamimura</span></b><br>

Ryuuji on the other hand listened diligently to his mistress as perusal, not wanting to miss a word.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">“Yes they did, I believe that I should be able to operate as I did when they described what I could do when you purchased me. Nong Shui introduced me to this..younger looking magic user, who at first I was skeptical of, but then again I’ve heard that some may not look the age they actually are based on their appearance particularly If they are fae, regardless if that’s the case the important part is that Miss Xia spent many hours working through with me to get my magic flow back in order, and I’ve subsequently been able to cast without the need of a catalyst at all. This will allow me to use my healing abilities freely on our excursion which I think will certainly come in handy.” </span><br>
<br>
Ryuuji spoke politely and eloquently during the process of answering her question.<br>
<br>
But then he heard the next part about needing energy, sure he had been working hard for most of the day, hopefully whatever he needed it for wasn’t going to be too difficult..seeing her smile shift to a mischievous smirk however intrigued him, when he saw that look surely there was profits to be made, which was actually a bit exciting in it’s own right for him, when she profited he did by extension.<br>
<br>
When Saoirse looked around, thankfully there didn’t appear to be anyone else nearby who was listening in with the trio, here were mainly some monks in the far outdistance here and there traversing the monastery grounds as well, a scarce number of outsiders too based on their garb who were wealthy enough to warrant inviting other.<br>
<br>
A set up was definitely favorable to Ryuuji when he heard that detail, so was the idea that whoever she was going up against wasn’t the brightest person in comparison, that’s a good sign that there were profits to be had if their cards were played right. Hearing about this strong guy believed that physical domination was the best way to train his slaves, only made Ryuuji feel more thankful that if he was going to end up in slavery, instead he at least got to be owned by Saoirse who at least at the moment hadn’t taken to severe physical discipline like it sounded like that guy’s slaves had.<br>
<br>
Going up against more than one wasn’t exactly what Ryuuji was hoping to hear, but he did nod to show that he was paying attention here and there as well as making respectful eye contact. If that was the case he just hoped that what  she said was true and that the dice were in fact going to be weighed at least a bit in their favor.<br>
<br>
Upon hearing that they might get a new companion, Ryuuji’s eyes lit up a bit on his usually pretty calm and somewhat serious resting face. If someone was going to be a slave, it was better they were under Saoirse, and a bit selfishly, if they were to join he hoped it was someone skilled who could help them bring in even more profits so Saoirse could further her status and power. On the other side of things what he didn’t want was for her to pick up dead weight, but it seemed like she was pretty good at assessing whether or not she wanted to bother investing into a slave or not, as she had picked Melia and himself, which in his humble opinion had been sensible choices. So he was sure whoever she picked should it come down to it, it’d be someone who’d provide some use to her in allowing their abilities to get better.<br>
<br>
What was a bit more surprising was that it sounded like Saoirse was willing to trust him with some authority should he impress her and they win. That wouldn’t exactly help him maintain his side character ruse,  but at the same time if he was able to manage their new group member well enough, that would definitely do him well for ‘resume’ building with Saoirse which was by far one of the most important things he could realistically be doing.<br>
<br>
When Melia heard that she could be getting new gear she was quick to bow low as well.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">“I understand. It humbles me to hear that you trust me with such a responsibility. Now that my magic is working properly, I am in a better position than other to come out on top, particularly with these advantageous situations you have described. And as usual your ability to judge situations to seize opportunities never ceases to impress me.”</span> Ryuuji responded when all was said and done.<br>
<br>
Lower energy or not the idea that they could significantly improve their situation was enough to motivate him to perk up.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">“I sincerely appreciate the opportunity to impress you. Your offer is generous, and as I told you earlier, I fully intend to win and make you proud.”</span> Melia reaffirmed showing her gratitude through gesture and words. She had been with Saoirse long enough that she did care for her, even knowing her true ambition more deeply than others, new gear was a great reward for what Melia was trying to achieve.<br>
---<br>
Presumably after they continued their strategic meeting and got prepared as needed Arranog stopped by to inform Saoirse ahead of time that they were ready to rumble on the bet, and by that point she, Ryuuji, and Melia were ready.<br>
<br>
There was a gathering of monks at the open field like  training area now. When the trio approached it was apparent that accommodations had been made for combat if there was to be any, Arranog was currently waiting near a group, surprisingly the elf from before was the only one who was still chained to him on the forged collar.<br>
<br>
Saoirse would be invited to join in a respectable spectating area near him, while the monks took care of hosting the event as for what slaves were expected to do what.<br>
<br>
There were a few others on the scene near Arranog who were less than familiar faces. Perhaps the choices suggested that Arranog had some sort of type when he picked his slaves out, the exception being one of them.<br>
<br>
The other ones present didn’t look terribly better than she had earlier.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b>???<br>

One had horns who was shorter and presumably more agile than the others. It looked like she had some form of horns, but she wasn’t particularly dressed better than the one chained by the man had, wearing basic black clothin essentials tops and bottoms so as to not be indecent, covering her chest, and shorts. At the very least she had been permitted to wear some more durable looking shoes, and a belt of sorts to hold what she needed, it looked like two sets of daggers with gold and black handles which were currently put away. The expression on her face was one of nervousness, as she glanced back and forth at Arranog and then to her compatriots. Her golden hoop earrings shifting as she turned her head now and again.<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b>???</b><br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/37afe2df6e8458f9f2566ebdb1f35b07-jpg.1137079/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/1074/1074208-bf43980311c71356d24ddd7a24800401.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="37afe2df6e8458f9f2566ebdb1f35b07.jpg" title="37afe2df6e8458f9f2566ebdb1f35b07.jpg" width="100" height="139" loading="lazy"></a>​</div><br>
Near her was another fae like the one who had been chained up, whose hair took on a more golden hue, wearing the sort of attire one might expect in a brothel or as a suit at the beach to show off. It was pretty clear they were dressed this way because Arranog probably preferred it at this point as something he found nice  to oogle at when he felt so inclined. What made her stick out a bit was she had a red face marking, as well as an ear with multiple pierces she had a sort of darker aura then some of the others, that and her catalyst was peculiar between the skull on top and the wings, as well as the gemstone which was clutched. She looked pretty concerned too, there were a few marks on her body as well suggested that Arranog had gotten a bit rough, particularly on her wrists, and sides. She was a pretty typical height at about 5’4.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b>???</b><br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/e1224f6d009b6c8389e2fd2652788029-jpg.1137080/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/1074/1074209-caad0dfb450d4bc15a0f0f2875e45eda.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="e1224f6d009b6c8389e2fd2652788029.jpg" title="e1224f6d009b6c8389e2fd2652788029.jpg" width="100" height="134" loading="lazy"></a>​</div><br>
The one which broke the trend of women who Arranog probably found attractive, was a young male human, who looked like he very much belonged in a school, a farm, or following his father’s trade. He had somewhat longer hair and  was carrying something long and concealed on his back, unlike the others he didn’t look like he had been ruffled up too much, but he  didn’t look entirely like he was all there and distant.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(209, 72, 65)">Arranog Dranth</span><br>
<span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)"><a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/2850be0f-ba1f-410c-aaff-bf1901e00413-1-png.1137081/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/1074/1074210-a67cf2cf346d41d56dfeca4d91cea5a6.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="2850be0f-ba1f-410c-aaff-bf1901e00413-1.png" title="2850be0f-ba1f-410c-aaff-bf1901e00413-1.png" width="100" height="147" loading="lazy"></a></span></b>​</div><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(209, 72, 65)">"&lt;So Waddya thing of them? Pretty great just like me huh?&gt;"</span> Dranth asked as arrogant as usual,  facing Saoirse from a distance, with another flex for good measure.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">“It..sure looks like he has a..sort of slave he goes for.” </span>Ryuuji murmured softly toward Saoirse quietly.<br>
<br>
Melia could almost be heard audibly scoffing, like she wasn’t particularly impressed by the showing,<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">“And who has slaves intended for combat going out..dressed like that?” </span>She added in softly, as well, presumably so Dranth wouldn’t hear and take offense to their comments.<br>
<br>
Thankfully it didn't look like he did.<br>
<br>
Ryuuji and Melia took their respective places near the other slaves, while a youthful frog monk began to explain what some of the events would entail.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(97, 189, 109)">“&lt;Since there is not an equal number of slaves, Dranth agreed to pick two of his own to compete. For the first set it will be a trial of combat in the training ring, leaving the boundary will result in  disqualification, the fighting will continue until it is obvious one cannot continue and  or they yield. For the second, the two magic users will compete and demonstrate their usefulness. The judges will be a panel of three monks who will rate the usefulness of the slave on a numeric scale of one to ten.&gt;”</span><br>
<br>
<br>
Arranog then looked at Saorise,<span style="color: #d14841"> “&lt;I take those are agreeable terms? I’m even being fair by only using two of my own. Of course just one of them might be more than yours could handle, so just think of it like I'm respecting your abilities.&gt;”</span> He said with a grin.<br>
<br>
It didn’t sound like Arranog was keen on giving out his slaves names, or perhaps he hadn’t even told the monks because he didn’t see it as important.<br>
<br>
Presuming that the Saoirse agreed that it was agreeable and everyone was in position to view, the first slaves selected to throw down were Melia and the horned one, who both made their way into the fenced circular arena taking opposite sides.<br>
<br>
Instead of using real blades they were using blunt training ones  which were enchanted in such a way that they’d deal blows which would be quite uncomfortable to experience. It looked like one of the benefits which Saoirse had been given here was that Melia looked visibly stronger than her opponent, it would be potentially easier for Melia to put her target into submission out of the ring, and more difficult for the more nimble slave to knock Melia out, perhaps that rule had been added for Saoirse’s intended benefit once the frogs sized up the competition.<br>
<br>
And just like that the match began. While the horned slave attacked with a look of desperation like a cornered animal might, overcompensating with aggressiveness, Melia was more patient using practical application of the footwork and blocks she learned to protect herself against the  sloppy rapid blows. It was pretty apparent who the more skilled and disciplined fighter was, reflective of the fact that Arranog probably hadn’t put nearly as much time into advancing his slave. The rest of the audience watched with anticipation at the back and forth going on.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">"I have a good feeling Melia has this handled Miss Desrosiers."</span> Ryuuji said with a bit of a soft smile looking toward her, before back at the fight.<br>
<br>
Conversely if one looked over to Arranog Dranth the dragonic man looked tense, with a clenched fist a displeased look already forming on his face.</div>

<b>Languages</b> Common | &lt;Beastial&gt;<br>
<br>
She was surprised at Melia's furthered praise regarding the frogs. Apparently they actually knew what they were doing. It was likely their goody-two-shoes nature that had them in financial trouble, she wagered, rather than incompetence. <br>
<br>
<span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“A fae?”</b></span> She'd raised a questioning eyebrow at Ryuuji, wondering if she heard that right. The frogs working with a lower caste would be peculiar, but it might be in their goody-two-shoes nature. Considering it had gotten her the results she wanted for her slaves, she wasn't one to complain. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Good, good.”</b></span> She nodded to hearing Ryuuji might finally be closer to being the value she got him for.<br>
<br>
As she joined Dranth, her main attention wasn't on him, but on who he'd brought. When he asked her what she thought, she figured that was the excuse she needed to get up close with them and to attempt using [Appraisal E] on them as she inspected them. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;I'll have to see for myself.&gt;”</b></span><br>
<br>
The horned one first. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;Hmmm... some sort of criminal, a thief perhaps, turned slave, I'm guessing?&gt;”</b></span> She asked. The girl had some rogue-vibes going on and the fact that she was allowed to keep golden earrings suggesed she might've not always been a slave.<br>
<br>
The next one was a tad more peculiar. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;A Fae druid or something? A witch, perhaps? I'll grand you, that seems like a rare type.&gt;”</b></span> She said, somewhat impressed he managed to get his hands on one of those. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;If she's somehow even half-way competent, you'd at least have an eye for quality goods.&gt;”</b></span> Perhaps another magically inclined slave could be a good training partner for Ryuuji? It was a thought worth considering for sure.<br>
<br>
That said, the random Human was the most peculiar one by far. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;What's up with this one?&gt;”</b></span> She asked as she'd approached him to try and use Appraisal. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;Dude's looking like he's staring right into the vast emptiness of the void.&gt;”</b></span> She commented, as she bunny-hopped up so that she could wave her hand in front of his eyes for a bit, to see if she'd get a reaction.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;You've got an interesting selection, I'll give you that. Although I won't know much more until I can see what they can do, right?&gt;”</b></span> She grinned. That's where she'd show him. Perhaps she was a bit too overconfident, but she was already debating which of these might be most worth claiming. Perhaps they should've invoked a formal contract, come to think of it, although she hoped Dranth would be too prideful to go back on his word.<br>
<br>
On the other hand, she was surprised by what the frog stated. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;Oh my, how very gentlemanly of you~&gt;”</b></span> She smiled at Dranth, glad to be given an extra advantage. She was hoping the choice of tests would already be enough, but using equal numbers would be the cherry on top. She laughed at the idea that only one of them could take both of hers. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;We'll have to see, handsome, we'll have to see.&gt;”</b></span> She replied, rather eager to prove him wrong.<br>
<br>
She was a bit surprised he'd have Melia face the horned one, rather than the Human one. After all, it seemed like the Human was bought for more than looks, so she somewhat expected that one to be the most competent. Perhaps not? Peculiar.<br>
<br>
Although it looked like Melia was winning, Saoirse kept a close eye. So long as Melia managed to use her ability to drain the opponent's strength, she should indeed have this in the pocket. Even so, the opponent was rather quick and agile, so perhaps she might still have some tricks left. Then again, she felt like Melia might not even be giving this her all either, possibly playing it more careful due to being in a better position if she'd let the opponent wear herself out first by merely staying on the offensive. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Seems like the frogs have indeed taught her some useful things.”</b></span> She replied to Ryuuji. <br>
<br>
She'd speak up a bit more hushed, so that Dranth wouldn't hear them. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“It seems like she might fear a beating if she looses. Either she'll find some unexpected strength and put Melia in trouble, or she'll panic and mess up. We won't know for sure until the very end.”</b></span></div>

Overall Ryuuji was glad that Saoirse was positively receptive to his report. He too was a bit confused, it was also possible that who he had been working with was maybe some combination of Fae and Beast..if Ryuuji understood how this world worked. He wasn’t sure how mixed races played into the West Empire class system.<br>

Thankfully Arranog was fine with Saoirse getting close to his slaves to examine them.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;Course you can  check out my handiwork, I think you’ll find them to be pretty impressive.&gt;” </span>He continued to boast which was pretty typical at this point.<br>
<br>
Saoirse’s Appraisal E ability would at least let her know that none of them appeared to be so powerful that she couldn’t get an as detailed read on them. It exposed their names and some titles.<br>

<br>
<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;Huh you’re pretty good at figuring  this kind of stuff aren’t you? Yeah she was up to plenty of no good before I got my hands on her..&gt;”</span> Arranog Dranth said, sounding a bit surprised. It was pretty obvious he was completely oblivious that Saoirse could use her appraisal ability.<br>
<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;Yeah She is pretty impressive isn’t she? Can’t say everyone has a slave who knows about some of the darker aspects of magic can you?  Well as I’m sure you know if you’re as good as you say, a lot of those fae don’t really need to use catalysts, but it seems she prefers it, maybe some kind of sentimental value, to be honest she hasn’t talked a lot to me since i got her..but that’s my best guess.&gt;” </span>Arranog  said with a shrug.<br>

I know he kind of sticks out like a sore from compared to the harem I’ve collected, I mean after all when I inevitably find that legendary fountain I`ll live forever like the God someone as perfect as me is supposed to be..so figured the women who serve me should be up to my standards and be capable as living as long as I will…but that’s besides the point, I felt kind of bad for him so I just took him in. I guess his family got massacred or something and not long after when he was alone in the wilderness some slavers got him..that’s what they told me at least, anyway he might look kind of out of it but he’s a pretty smart guy for a human in my opinion.&gt;”</span><br>
<br>
The slave did actually look over at Saoirse, but kept the same expression on his face when she hopped up. It was unchanging, and he kept quite silent. By appraising him she’d see that he had some titles including  [Mathematical] [Thinker] [Reserved] [Studious] [Perseverent] [Observant] [Property of Arranog Dranth]<br>
<br>
Then  there was the elf near Dranth, which Saoirse would probably need to go over and appraise if she wanted to learn more.<br>
<br>
Of course Saoirse’s words only further fueled Arranog’s ego when she called him handsome, the reaffirmation made him feel more confident and less guarded. It seemed like he didn’t mind some competition either, with how Saoirse spoke, but of course perhaps that was because he was pretty convinced he was absolutely going to win.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;Right.&gt;”</span> He grinned back when she said they’d see.<br>
----<br>
<br>
Ryuuji nodded in agreement at what Saoirse said, as he got down to hear her. Even though Ryuuji hadn’t understood much of the conversation due to beastial, it didn’t take him knowing that to see the look of desperation on the horned slave as she struck, like she was paranoid of some kind of retaliation if she failed.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">Melia Hayward</span></b><br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/gyomdvf-jpg.1137735/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/1074/1074864-16450e91d710f396cf954ba1e867d99e.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="GYOmdVf.jpg" title="GYOmdVf.jpg" width="100" height="100" loading="lazy"></a>​</div><br>
<br>
Melia in comparison actually looked as cool as a cucumber like she was completely focused in the fight. As the blocking became prolonged and the overly aggressive attacking didn’t seem to be working for the horned one, even if a few times she got awfully close to hitting Melia, like she was trying to find somewhere where the block was weaker. There was a glint in her eyes suddenly as she turned a strange shadowy purply dark hue and rushed forward sliding before she  appeared a distance behind Melia! catching her off guard just as the daggers were raised and it looked like she was about to hit Melia with both of them in the back, Melia was actually able to pivot with her foot work and when the daggers were raised it was at that moment she gave her horned opponent a  All Out Sword Attack ability, swinging her sword forward while the horned one was vulnerable, draining her strength, thanks to Melia’s accurate technique core it also let her hit the speedy target easier than it would be for someone else.<br>
<br>
The combination of the drain and the enchantment on the training sword proved to be a bit much for the horned one as she let out  cry of pain before getting knocked to the sidelines against the outer fencing.<br>
<br>
Melia turned back to her and approached sword still drawn ready to strike her again if need be, but given the fact that the horned one was hardly moving and looked like she was in pain it wasn’t too long before the same  frog monk who had announced the event came over and exclaimed.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(97, 189, 109)">“&lt;Because her opponent is unable to continue I would like to announce Saoirse the winner of this round!&gt;”</span> Very clearly crediting Saoirse's accomplishments over Melia's own abilities.<br>
<br>
However as the monk exclaimed this Arranog came right over.<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)"> “Now just wait a minute! Who said she couldn’t still fight?! That’s nothing but a scratch! Come on get up! You’re tougher than that!”</span> He  said clearly ticked off. Raising his voice at the one who was struggling on the ground.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“I ORDER you to get UP!” </span>He’d exclaim again, even as she struggled but failed, before Arranog would let out a sound of exasperation.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“Fine, you get this one..but with this next win, I’ll show you.” </span>he reasserted sounding a bit bitter. Some frogs would come over to the fallen one and help her up off the field before Melia returned to Saoirse with a smile of accomplishment. She had placed the training sword back where she had taken it from.<br>
<br>
Melia  then gave Saoirse a respectful bow.<br>
<span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">"I hope that my performance was to your satisfaction, I know that even if I won that match, there's more I can do to get even better. I plan to give it my all to make sure that improvement happens."<br>
<br>
"Moving forward I'll make sure to be more wary that my opponent may not be all that they seem at a surface level, on that note that ability was rather impressive."</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">“Congratulations Melia, a  true testament to Miss Desrosiers' leadership and effort in improving your abilities. ” </span>Ryuuji was quick to state. It had been rather impressive the way she had turned around that dire situation in that moment, combining what she learned with what she already knew. All Ryuuji could hope was that Saoirse would find the showing impressive enough as well..<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">“And of course your predictions were insightful as always Miss Desrosiers..you could tell just by reading her body language what the likely actions of the dagger wielding one were and she did just that.”</span><br>
<br>
Before the next round started there was a bit of time to strategize with Ryuuji if Saoirse so desired or time to do whatever else as it looked like the Monks were setting up for the next round.<br>
<br>
At that Ryuuji found himself feeling a bit more nervous now that his turn was growing closer..what were they going to have him do?</div>

<br>
<b>Languages</b> Common | &lt;Beastial&gt;<br>
<br>
She didn't mind Dranth's bragging, as she was used to it by now. Besides, she had some slaves to appraise. Although the first one, she'd been able to guess things about even before appraising her. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;How much has she been giving you trouble since?&gt;”</b></span> She asked, rather curious to learn more about the success of his 'method' in trying to keep someone that was once a fairly high level criminal docile. <br>
<br>
If she were to be granted a slave like that, she'd surely find them to be a challenge. Assuming Shady Oak was a thieves' guild, this one might even have allies trying to free or support her. She also seemed like she might be capable of stealing and sneaking off from her owner. A strong contract and seal would be needed to keep such a gal in check and even then, it might be risky. On the other hand, she was clearly skilled and had the whole 'rogue' vibe in which she might come to flourish. Judging for her battle with Melia, a bit of proper training and this one could also become a great training partner for Melia, allowing them both to work towards flourishing.<br>
<br>
Then again, the barely dressed Elf druid was equally peculiar. Needing a catalyst wasn't the most troublesome. She had already gotten a rare find of a [Human] that somehow didn't need one, assuming Ryuuji wasn't lying about the results of his training. She hoped, for his sake, that he was smart enough not to do so. <br>
<br>
That said, this particular slave had some interesting titles to her name. Brewer, Survivalist... she had no clue where or what Elderberry Coven was. Likely a group of witches, she'd assume. Hot-Headed sounded like trouble for a slave. How'd this one even manage to survive as one? <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;She's surprisingly calm for some Fae. Was she always like that?&gt;”</b></span> She figured that was the best way to ask the question. She also wondered what [Loyalist] meant and who she'd be loyal to. <br>
<br>
She chuckled at Dranth's open admission of the others just being a 'Harem' that he collected. Some beast would call it 'gross' that he'd call mere slaves as such and that he'd even add non-beasts in with them. He himself clearly didn't seem to bother. Nor did he seem to bother using that word to someone he was trying to date. Oddly enough, she sort-off like that aspect of him.<br>
<br>
For now, however, her attention was on the Human kid. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;A smart guy, huh?&gt;”</b></span> She looked over at Ryuuji. It felt like she already sort-off had one of those. Smart Human dude. Then again, would having two of those allow them to go up against each-other and make each-other flourish? His titles were, by far, the most promising when it came to making someone flourish. All the signs were pointing in the right direction in that regard. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;Seems like he'd be the type I was talking about, the type that would be really useful to teach how to read and write so they could take care of all the boring paperwork for you. If his entire family got murdered, he won't have anywhere to run to and isn't likely to try anything as a result. In fact, if you make it seem like he'll benefit from earning you money and helping you gain more, he'll like have intrinsic motivation to so to such things to the best of his extend.&gt;”</b></span><br>
<br>
She chucked. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;Although, I think I've yet to win one more match to show that I'm worth listening too~&gt;”</b></span> She was, perhaps, just a tad cocky as she saw Melia defeat the other slave.<br>
<br>
Although Dranth sounded like a sour looser, she was happy. When Melia came over, there was no need for her to hide as much. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“You did great, well done~”</b></span> She chucked at the promise to do better next time. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Good, good. Although  you've shown me these frogs are worthwhile and won me a battle all at once, whilst still being able to critically reflect on your own performance, so I already couldn't be happier~”</b></span> She was royal with her praise, as she felt like it was earned. She couldn't abstain from giving a smug look at Dranth for a moment. This, this was the ideal slave. Delivering victory to their master, yet still being humble and critical about their performance. This was the type of slave that she was going to make flourish one day.<br>
<br>
Ryuuji was somewhat ignored, as this wasn't his moment in the spotlight. Only when his turn was about to come up, did she focus on him again. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“I'm guessing that either they'll have you go up against the elven mage in a battle of magic, or in some puzzle or game of logic against the human. If you're up against he mage and learned as much you claimed you did, you should be good. If you're up against the Human...”</b></span> She clicked her tongue. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Let's just say you'll get a chance to truly impress me. So much so, that should it be needed, I would even allow you to play for reaching a draw.”</b></span> She decided to be somewhat merciful, as she didn't want to discourage his flourishing potential by setting up expectations that were too unreasonable from the get-go. <br>
<br>
That left her with approaching the last slave she'd yet to check, even though she'd been the first one she encountered. The collared Elf Dranth had used as a sword carrier. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&gt;You said you got this one last? I'm assuming that means she won't be ready to go up against mine yet.&gt;”</b></span> She stated, using the interaction as an excuse to use [Appraisal] on this one as well.</div>

<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;She acts out sometimes, but I make sure to put her back in her place pretty quickly.&gt;” </span>Dranth said smugly, as for how much he saw her acting out was acceptable was pretty subjective on an individual owner basis. But it didn’t sound like he exactly had perfect control over his slave, regardless. Forging a more stringent contract might have been wise. Compared to Saoirse who had been able to get her slaves to follow her, her results were likely more promising in that hers hadn’t been rebelling against her.<br>
<br>
<br>
Saoirse’s observation about Kiora wasn’t unfounded. She was one of the more well established slaves as far as having a history of performance based on her titles. She also did seem to have that unique shadow like ability which had allowed her to move quickly behind Melia, suggesting there probably was greater combat potential there for agility, speed, and skill. She would certainly potentially come in handy for melee training.  But there were other considerations such as possibly causing challenges which Saoirse had thought out.<br>
<br>
<br>
Arranog appeared to also be willing to discuss Zalihn with Saoirse as well. Perhaps it because he saw opportunity to brag or increase his chance of impressing Saoirse, regardless it didn’t hurt Saoirse’s situation any.<br>
<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;Always like that? I can assure you she’s just determined to utterly crush yours in the next round. I mean obviously my corrective discipline helped her see there were more useful ways to channel however she’s feeling, but what I can tell you is that even if she looks it she’s probably far from calm.&gt;” </span> the Dragonic Dranth family member would chuckle some. Unlike the others Zalihn didn’t look as paranoid about the next time she’d be beaten or whatever else Dranth deemed as appropriate. In fact if one looked closely they’d see that her hands were awfully tight on her catalyst. Regardless Arranog didn’t seem like he was going to talk terribly in detail about just how hot headed Zalihn could be. The implication was pretty clear that no she was not always like that, if Saoirse would read between the lines, there was a suggestion that her thoughts were likely not far off that it could be problematic.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">Ryuuji Kamimura<br>

Ryuuji actually raised an intrigued brow when he heard Arranog mention some fountain of yout, sort of like that real world equivalent of trying to find El Dorado, however in a magic world like IH, perhaps a fountain like that did exist. If it was real he couldn’t help but wonder if maybe he’d geta chance to find it one day and partake in it, that way he could stay in his prime as long as needed and accumulative wealth and prestige long term theoretically. Granted that might also mean an extended time of being Saoirse’s slave if she got in on it too. Truthfully while she was self motivated in many ways as Ryuuji was, she had been a far preferable owner to many Ryuuji reasoned mentally, Dranth was evidence of that, so was the alternative where he could have been eaten earlier had she not bid on him.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
He continued to listen in on the conversation since he wasn’t the one who was competing at the moment.<br>
<br>
Arranog nodded, <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;I mean every once and awhile he says something that makes sense to me, but he’s been pretty quiet since I got him, truthfully I like to hang around the ladies, like I said anyway he’s not exactly the best for holding conversations with at times.. so I can’t say for sure whether or not I really know what type of potential you’re talking about, as far as teaching goes. I’ve been using him as an errand boy for awhile though and he seems to do that well enough.&gt;”</span> Arranog snickered some at the latter part. Once again Arranog showed a lack of utilitarian insight into how he could best use  the slaves he acquired.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;Tch, no need to sound so sure, just because Kiora screwed up doesn’t mean that my methods don’t work, I know how to get what I want when I want and I’ll show her  again and again what happens when I’m disappointed.&gt;” </span>The implication being rather dark with Arranog’s words despite him speaking so casually about it. There was also an edge in his voice which suggested that he was indeed salty about that topic, like he was close to brooding about it.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)"><b>Melia Hayward</b></span><br>
<b><span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)"><a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/gyomdvf-jpg.1138376/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/1075/1075505-16450e91d710f396cf954ba1e867d99e.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="GYOmdVf.jpg" title="GYOmdVf.jpg" width="100" height="100" loading="lazy"></a></span></b>​</div><br>
Melia took well to Saoirse’s praise, a prominent smile on her face, upon hearing Saoirse tell her that she did great, and that it was a job well done. Even more when she was told that Saoirse couldn’t be happier. Was this face really a surprise? Not only was pleasing Saoirse ideal, but it also allowed Melia to affirm to herself that she could in fact reach her goal of being a great warrior.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">“Thank you for your incredibly kind words, I swear I’ll do my best to continue to perform to this quality or better moving forward.” </span>Melia reaffirmed Saoirse with a bow in line with proper West Empire etiquette, it was much lower like before given Saorise’s status and then the nature of the high praise.<br>
<br>
She also nodded,<span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)"> “I strongly believe that similar to my opponent here today, there are some others here who are more capable at combat then one might assume by just looking at them.”</span> she said in a bit of a softer tone.<br>
<br>
While Arranog was watching this happen, his look was giving some daggers in response to the smug look of Saoirse and the scene unfolding. It really did give off the vibe he was going to make true on his words to remind his slaves who was in charge later and that failure wasn’t an option.<br>
<br>
By the time the effects of the training blades had been negotiated in contrast, It looked like Kiora had been trembling much more uncontrollably even since it all had been said and done like she knew what to expect next and the very idea of it filled her with great anxiety and dread.<br>
<br>
Ryuuji on the other hand listened carefully when Saoirse did speak to him directly. He nodded, that’s what Ryuuji was hoping for, while he had been a pretty bright guy in his last life to land the type of job he did, not to mention having to perform well on all sorts of exams to get through school back in Japan. He also performed quite well on them, but unfortunately Ryuuji wasn’t sure if everything he had needed to memorize back then was going to translate amazingly well to a fantasy world like this.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">“In either case Miss Desrosiers, regardless of who I go up against, I aim to impress.I also appreciate your merciful and  generous terms should there be a draw with him. Naturally I hope that it will not come to needing that.” </span><br>
<br>
While it would be nice to really impress her if he could pull it off, he at this moment preferred the safer route, unless that Fae was exceptionally good and he just didn’t know yet; he really wanted a chance to show off the magic he felt confident he could use now to prove to her that he had been worth his purchase price to her, and that  his time spent so far would be worth it.<br>
<br>
Then Saoirse was able to appraise the collared elf.<br>
<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;Tch, if she knew what was good for her she’d be ready whether she's had the practice or not.&gt;” </span>Arranog stated, giving a bit of a side eye at the elf. Once again he seemed oblivious to Saoirse’s appraisal, but his words indicated that Saoise had been correct in her assessment.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b>Jastira Veidi<br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/elf-1-png.1138378/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/1075/1075507-4639e0745d31da67f0092f4b7f6c1fa6.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="elf-1.png" title="elf-1.png" width="100" height="147" loading="lazy"></a></b>​</div><br>
<br>
The name revealed on the appraisal was Jastira Veidi. She had some titles [Thespian] [Duplicitous] [Sociable] [Fine Tuned] [Melodious] [Alder Association for the Advancement and Preservation of Fae Kind Member E]<br>
<br>
It wasn’t all too long before it looked like the frogs were finished setting up and the same frog monk from before came forward. <span style="color: rgb(97, 189, 109)">“&lt;This round will allow two magic users to test their mettle! Participants will take one turn each, to pick their respective targets, as many as they like and show what their magic can do! A panel of three of us will then each score the performance numerically on a scale of one to ten, whoever impresses us more will receive a higher mark! This seems fair enough yes?&gt;” </span>This was ripe for the frogs to make good on their word to Saoirse that they wanted to teach a certain Dranth a lesson about how to treat slaves. There were three frog monks off to the side in a row who looked like they were watching in particular, a podium having been moved in front of the three. Should the terms be found agreeable, the contest would continue.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(97, 189, 109)">“First on behalf of Arranog Dranth, Zalihn Wylxina will take her turn to impress the judges! Please select your target(s) and show us what you can do! Cast when you are ready!”</span><br>
<div style="text-align: center"><span style="color: rgb(71, 85, 119)"><b>Zalihn Wylxina</b></span><br>

This was good, it might let him learn about what he could do to out do her performance, feeling a bit relieved it had been her at that.<br>
<br>
Silently the scantily clad slave made her way up with her catalyst in hand to the field area, and it looked like she was eying down one of the wooden figure like targets which had been set up a distance away.<br>
<br>
She approached the target until she was about 15 ft away,<span style="color: rgb(71, 85, 119)"> “I Hope you’re all ready for this!”</span> She announced a steely glint of determination in her eyes as she eyed the figure down. She began to twirl her staff around and chant softly in some odd language  Suddenly a sinister purplish hue began to envelope her strange catalyst until some sharp vines broke through the ground where the target had been standing leaving a terrible purplish miasma in the air where they erupted coming out of the ground. The wooden figure was knocked over by the vines, splintering and began to break down like the purple stuff was dissolving it.<br>
<br>
Ryuuji noted that she chose to use an offensive magic of some kind. What was different however was how she had only used one target..Ryuuji knew before he came here people were capable of hitting more..was it possible she had specced into the offensive spell but hadn’t mastered other aspects? Nevertheless he waited while the frogs deliberated until the three of gave their responding scores: 5, 7, 6.. He just needed to beat that score, feeling his heart rate increase a bit. Zalihn didn’t exactly looked thrilled that she hadn’t gotten all perfect marks, but it wasn’t terrible either, Ryuuji had to take into consideration that maybe the frogs were just being strict, but he knew it wouldn’t be long until it was his turn now.</div>

<br>
<span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;Hmhm.&gt;”</b></span> She just nodded at the notion of the thief one acting out sometime. Skill wise, she was highly interested in that one. She followed a clear 'rogue' archetype, the kind of quick-footed quick-handed thief. She wondered if there was a way to make such an archetype flourish. Theft wasn't legal, sadly enough, so she could hardly have her go steal things. Unless.. perhaps steal form criminals? Like some sort of folk hero, except without the heroic parts, as she'd keep the earning herself and use them to increase her earnings. Could someone flourish as a thief? The idea excited her. Yet loyalty would be a clear issue. How would she ensure someone like that would follow her well enough for her to develop them? She clicked her tongue. That was the real issue, wasn't it?<br>
<br>
The witch/druid, however, was quickly loosing appeal to Saoirse. Having to make someone with personality issues flourish might be obnoxious. Besides, Dranth had already done some work on her, it seemed. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;I'll grant you that you taught her well how to hide her anger.&gt;”</b></span> She was willing to give credit where credit was due.<br>
<br>
The sole guy was still an enigma. From what Arranog told her, he might hold some real untapped potential! Or he could be a total bust... She clicked her tongue. He did seem like he'd be the most obedient, but he reminded her of Ryuuji as well. She wondered if those two would mesh well together or if they'd clash well together. Either could work for as long as it'd help them develop... Yet if she couldn't get a guy like this Garrett to start doing s tuff, he'd just be dead weight. How would you get someone with such titles to his name to develop? Hmmm... Was there flourishing in being a scholar? Possibly. Even so, she wasn't entirely sure how she'd approach it. The boy would be a high risk case. Could be a dull and boring dude that lead to nothing, could be a hidden genius that could develop into a mastermind that'd also help her streamline her process of developing slaves... She wondered if that'd be a chance worth betting on. At the very least it'd allow her to claim a slave without angering Dranth a lot, should she wish to keep some of that relation going, as it was clear he wouldn't miss the boy.<br>
<br>
She waved away Melia's words of gratitude with a hand motion. She'd given credit where credit was due and there was no need to thank her for it... even though she did like it when people did that. That said, she did wonder. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Do you think the girl from just now would make a worthy training partner, if she trains more?”</b></span> She might as well get some of Melia's input on it. If she were to pick that girl, saving her from future beatings (assuming she'd not actually deserve them even by Saoirse's milder view) might grant a modicum of loyalty and gratitude that Saoirse could abuse. It was a thing worth considering.<br>
<br>
She nodded at Ryuuji, as it was his term to perform. He was clever enough not to outright claim he wouldn't need to aim for a draw, merely saying he hooped he'd not need to do so. That's what she liked about him. He knew his place, but also his limits. He played things tactical.<br>
<br>
The last Elf made her feel annoyed. Why? She had no cue what a [Thespian] was or what [Duplicitous] meant and she'd be dead before she'd admit to such a thing. She also wondered what a person could do to be considered [Melodious], for that matter. To top it off, she was associated to some sort of Fae organisation? She clicked her tongue. Didn't seem good. Nothing to develop, only trouble. If anything, she worried this one might as well a spy sent by that weird Fae organisation. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;How'd you get this one again?&gt;”</b></span> She asked, regarding Jastira, not sure if he'd even told her to begin with.<br>
<br>
She paid some attention to the duel, but the Fae mage's performance made her loose even more interest. To brag about her attack, yet perform mediocre at best... Someone like that would be tough to make flourish. Also annoying. She just hoped that Ryuuji would be given a task that'd allow him to show he was better in a way that even Dranth would have to admit too...</div>

Arranog gave Saoirse a smug look upon hearing the praise, <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;Of course I did, and no one should expect any less, whatever I work toward I excel in, it's only natural for a Dranth, especially when you’re among the best of the Dranth.&gt;” </span><br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">Melia Hayward</span> <br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/gyomdvf-jpg.1139073/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/1076/1076202-16450e91d710f396cf954ba1e867d99e.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="GYOmdVf.jpg" title="GYOmdVf.jpg" width="100" height="100" loading="lazy"></a></b>​</div><br>
Melia listened with great focus when Saoirse spoke to her, at attention once again, as she did, Melia  looked over at who had been her opponent, before looking back at Saoirse. <br>
<br>
She had to think for a moment not responding to Saoirse immediately, like she was replaying the battle she had in her head.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">“Truthfully I believe that she has potential. While her attacks were desperate which caused their quality to suffer, It is of my opinion it was largely because of how concerned she was about the way she would be treated were she to anger her master. The way she held her stances and held her weapons suggested experience to me. Part of the reason I also believe she has potential is because of that unique ability which she used when she turned all dark..I am uncertain what it was, but she did manage to get behind me pretty quickly, and I only just guarded against her attack with a split reaction, if I had been just a bit earlier she would have stabbed me somewhere vital had it been a fight to the death, so I do think there would be an opportunity for us to learn from one another to become better at combat.”</span> Melia thoughtfully articulated to Saoirse.<br>
<br>
Thankfully even with Saoirse’s apparent confusion as to what some of the titles were exactly meant to be mean, Arranog was more than willing to fill her in on it.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;Well yeah, bought her from some slave traders while I was traveling around the West Empire. I asked them where they got her from, and apparently she had been traveling on tour performing..I guess she’s good at singing or something, least that’s what they told me, I kind of just assumed since she was a elf she’d be good at the bow so I gave her a quiver and one of them, but she hasn’t really gotten a chance to try it out much, anyway, she was near the border of the West Empire and the Grand Duchy, and while she was traveling she got taken by a group of marauders, who she then got taken by the slave traders from apparently, not really sure what happened to the marauders, maybe they all got killed or enslaved, anyway, that’s how I got her and the background I was told she has.&gt;”</span><br>
<br>
Of course when Zahlin’s scores were announced, it wasn’t too long before Arranog’s mood shifted for the worse. He clenched his fist and stomped his foot, his tail swaying back and forth, then up and down violent briefly. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;That stupid elf is going to cost me some serious money..&gt;”</span> He said under his breath. Not seeming like he was expecting anyone to hear or comment on what he just said, as he readjusted<br>
<br>
The frog monk who had been announcing the contest then continued,<span style="color: rgb(97, 189, 109)"> “&lt;Okay Saoirse’s slave Ryuuji Kamimura is up next! Please show us what you can do with your magic so that the judges may determine which caster is more valuable! Select your targets and let us know when you are ready!&gt;</span><br>

Ryuuji gave a formal bow before he headed out onto the field. It seemed like just as it was Ryuuji’s turn, a clustered groups of frog monks who had been training vigorously early came near the front of the crowd, many of them looked like had, had a pretty long day some having some  bruises on them. Ryuuji had an idea of what he could do next presuming that his magic was in fact going to operate the way he had envisioned when he selected the necessary skills before he was reincarnated in this world.<br>
<br>
He moved about 29 ft away from the group of tired looking monks, before he raised a his hand, the black and white energized pattern taking hold on either of his arms and hands, as they began to glow.<br>
He then took a dynamic pose crouched, extending one palm out flat in front of him, the other closer to his chest.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">“Observe, with my power I need no catalyst, and I will help resolve fatigue with the move of my hands.”</span> He announced before using the ability I Swear I'm Just a NPC Healer! - Magic School Hands of Restoration F (Heal F), Magic E, Componentless Magic E, Magic Range F, Magic Area of Effect F, - Grade E 1 Post cooldown.<br>
Ryuuii heals minor injuries, aches, and pains up to 30 ft away from him, within a 15 ft AOE.<br>
<br>
He targeted the center of the group and suddenly all the monks caught up in it were looking more rejuvenated compared to before. And suddenly they were all looking pleased, talking about how their aches and pains had gone away, even pointing out how their bruising had faded away.<br>
<br>
Ryuuji let out an internal sigh of relief upon seeing that he felt his magic flow properly and that his ability went off as he had envisioned. Of course he would need to get much stronger, but this was a big step in the right direction.<br>
<br>
Now he felt his anticipation build..he just needed a higher score and he’d be all set. However he couldn’t help but feel a bit confident given just how conveniently those monks seemed to appear in the perfect way to show off his magic.<br>
<br>
Eventually the scores were revealed as 8-8-9.<br>
<br>
Meaning that he outdid his opponent’s score. He looked over in Zahlin and Dranth’s direction  looking a bit smug himself now. <i><span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">Too bad so sad,</span></i> it looked like the circumstances were just in his favor.. He made his way off the field, however as he was walking along his face changed to one of surprise when suddenly vines shot up in front of him from the ground.

“You totally cheated!” </span>A voice came out from his opponent.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(71, 85, 119)">“I’m supposed to believe that some stupid lowly human can use componentless magic?! Someone in the audience is loaning you, or this was a set up from the start!”</span> Zalihn exclaimed indignantly with a stamp of her foot.<br>
<br>
<br>
Arranog looked even more upset from before seeing what transpired.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;There’s no way…&gt;”</span>  He didn’t even appear to be concerned about reprimanding his slave for almost damaging Saoirse’s.<br>
<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;ALRIGHT THAT’S IT! NO ONE MAKES A FOOL OUTTA ME!&gt;”</span> <br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;I’M READY TO MOVE ONTO ROUND TWO, SO IF ANY OF YOU MONKS ARE SCREWING AROUND WITH ME YOU’RE ABOUT TO BE IN FOR A WORLD OF HURT!&gt;”</span><br>
<br>
He said moving aggressively  into the open field himself.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">“&lt;Since this human ‘healer’ just made you bunch feel better, why don’t you all come and take me on like we discussed earlier?!&gt;” </span>He exclaimed obnoxiously, assuming a combat position.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"&lt;And one of you bring a rope, I'll do it with one hand tied behind my back just like I said I would!&gt;"</span><br>
<br>
Instead of addressing what was being said, Ryuuji continued to move around the vines and calmly walk off the field to be near Saoirse, before turning back toward her.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">“I can assure you nothing of the sort was taking place, it’s just talent.”</span> He responded, sounding polite as could be as if there had been no transgression against him.<br>
<br>
This only prompted a huff out of Zalihn and glaring daggers from her eyes.</div>

<br>
She chuckled a bit at Dranths continued prideful nature. At this rate, he was really risking to set himself up for a deep fall down, wasn't he? She was getting a little excited. It'd be sort-off hot if he could live up to his own hype, but also pretty hilarious if he'd fall from the pedestal he claimed to be on. Either way would be an interesting outcome, at this rate.<br>
<br>
However, she was more interested in what Melia had to tell about her opponent. Businesses before pleasure, after all. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“That sounds promising.”</b></span> She stated, happy with her slave's thorough assessment of the opponent. The horned girl shot up high on the list of interesting slaves to 'take over' later.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;A singer, huh?&gt;”</b></span> That was something she hadn't imagined yet. Trying to make some sort of performer flourish. That could most definitely be of interest. The way she was taken was a bit peculiar as well, but nothing too uncommon. <br>
<br>
Ryuuji making a show out of his abilities was met with a chuckle from Saoirse. Especially as he managed to live up to it, based on the scores. Good, good. He really was showing to have been worth the money and effort. This was a good start of his flourishing potential. <br>
<br>
<span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;Ah, so there's the anger.&gt;”</b></span> She stated, a devious laugh upon seeing the Elf loose her cool. That explained the title. She would've been a tad angry had she actually hit Ryuuji, but with it missing, there was no need to further mention it. <br>
<br>
As she saw Dranth move into the field, however, she had an idea. He wasn't thinking clearly right now, was he? She could totally abuse that. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;Hey, why don't we make this even more fun?&gt;”</b></span> She called out. She got out a Slave Contract made with [Law F] and her [Slaver] Education. It was a bit of a shame she wasn't in the position to enslave someone like Dranth himself, but she could go with another fun option.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;My slaves have already won, so you already owe me one of yours, but I'm willing to play a bit more... So how about this? If you win against the frogs, I'll take a slave of your choosing off of your hands. It'll just be a chance to unload some dead weight, right? Not only that, I'd certainly be in the mood for a date afterwards~&gt;”</b></span> <br>
<br>
There was, of course, a catch. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;If the unthinkable happens and you somehow loose against these frogs, I'll take my time to inspect and question your slaves in order to pick the one I like the most instead. Not only that, you'll also promise to have your remaining slaves trained by them.&gt;”</b></span> She showed him the contract. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;Not a bad idea, right? You get to reduce your loss and go on a date, simply due to beating up some old frogs you were already planning to beat up!&gt;”</b></span><br>
<br>
She held out the contract from him to sign, with all those present as witnesses. Should Dranth win a match against the frogs, he'd only have to let go of a slave of his choosing and Saoirse would humour him with a date. Should he loose, she'd get her time to pick a slave of her own choosing and he'd have his other slaves trained by the frogs for at least three entire months. Why? She was merely curious to see if the frogs could make this situation work to improve the slaves' potential to flourish, even under the ownership of a guy like Dranth. She also figured she'd build up some good reputation with these frogs to abuse at a later date. Oh, right, she also just wanted to see Dranth really suffer if he was foolish enough to lose now. Breaking the dude's spirit might be fun.<br>
<br>
As Ryuuji approached her, she'd compliment him. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Well done.”</b></span> After which, she'd grin. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“The real show is about to start now, it seems. You've earned your right to sit back and enjoy it, for a bit.”</b></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">Melia Hayward</span></b><br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/gyomdvf-jpg.1139784/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/1076/1076913-16450e91d710f396cf954ba1e867d99e.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="GYOmdVf.jpg" title="GYOmdVf.jpg" width="100" height="100" loading="lazy"></a>​</div><br>
Melia smiled at Saoirse's words since they suggested she had done a good enough job of explaining what was on her mind. Even if the mental stuff wasn’t exactly Melia’s focus point of strength, it was clear she had developed her ability to articulate, probably from wanting to make satisfactory responses to Saoirse’s questions.<br>
<br>
Melia did look over curiously upon hearing Saoirse laugh, but then saw what it had been in reference too with the way Saoirse had been looking.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">“Well that certainly was bold of her wasn’t it? If her magic gets too close to Ryuuji  for your comfort I can handle it.” </span>Melia reaffirmed like a good slave who knew that her mistress’ property was valuable to her.<br>
<br>
Arranog on the other hand was looking pretty pressed still, looking over at Saoirse, an aggregated look still on his face.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(71, 85, 119)">Zalihn Wylxina<br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/37afe2df6e8458f9f2566ebdb1f35b07-jpg.1139785/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/1076/1076914-bf43980311c71356d24ddd7a24800401.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="37afe2df6e8458f9f2566ebdb1f35b07.jpg" title="37afe2df6e8458f9f2566ebdb1f35b07.jpg" width="100" height="139" loading="lazy"></a></span></b>​</div><br>
While this was going on Zalihn still wasn’t placated with what had transpired, with Ryuuji’s response or the frog’s judgment.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(71, 85, 119)">“Like I’m supposed to believe that! What’s that pendent around your neck huh That wound’t happen to be a catalyst would it?!” </span>She’d exclaim pointing her catalyst to it on Ryuuji, pointing out his Pandoras' Pendent D.<br>
<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(71, 85, 119)">“You and I both know they wouldn’t have scored you as highly if you had to use a catalyst! I want that pendent appraised!”</span> She demanded.<br>
<br>
Eventually one of the frogs came over, who looked older, hunched over with a twisted wooden catalyst/walking stick, <span style="color: rgb(61, 142, 185)">“Very well then, I’ll take a look at it.” </span>One of his eyes glowed a faint green color looking at Ryuuji’s pendant, while Ryuuji sort of just stood there still not entirely sure what he should be doing, looking to Saoirse and back at the appraiser.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(44, 130, 201)">“Well I can confirm one thing it’s a magic ite-”</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(71, 85, 119)">“SEE! I TOLD YOU! HE WAS CHEATING BY MISREPRESENTING HIMSELF!” </span><br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><span style="color: rgb(209, 72, 65)"><b>Arranog Dranth</b></span><br>
<span style="color: rgb(184, 49, 47)"><b><a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/2850be0f-ba1f-410c-aaff-bf1901e00413-1-png.1139787/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/1076/1076916-a67cf2cf346d41d56dfeca4d91cea5a6.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="2850be0f-ba1f-410c-aaff-bf1901e00413-1.png" title="2850be0f-ba1f-410c-aaff-bf1901e00413-1.png" width="100" height="147" loading="lazy"></a></b></span>​</div><br>
Before Arranog looked over,<span style="color: rgb(209, 72, 65)"> “Oh is that so?” </span>His aggressiveness turning to a bit more of a smug look once again.that was until it shifted to the way it had been before  when he heard the next words.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(44, 130, 201)">“But I can confirm it is  not a catalyst, it is only a magic item which would not augment his  magical abilities, I cannot detect any catalyst on him, therefore I determine that the scores are just.”</span><br>
<br>
This caused Zalihn to make her way off the field fully stomping her feet some, before crossing her arms and standing by the other slaves of Dranth.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(209, 72, 65)">“&lt;Very well then..It looks like you have that one Saoirse..&gt;” </span>Dranth said with a tint of resentment in his voice.<br>
<br>
Before he acknowledged what he had been saying before, “&lt;Yeah Yeah, fun, I’m all about it and it looks like you are too if you’re willing to make a deal like that, where you’ll just be going on a date with yours truly!&gt;” Even with Arranog’s usual arrogance there was still a sense that he was far from pleased at the recent development, one of his fists tightened.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(209, 72, 65)">“&lt;Of course I’ll agree to that, I’m Arranog Dranth, losing just isn’t in my blood!&gt;” </span>He said taking the writing tool and swiftly signing the document, his penship was actually decent in the beastial from the looks of things, with so many eye witnesses it would definitely be binding from all the monks and slaves who had been watching this development.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(209, 72, 65)">“&lt;Just you watch I’ll put on a good show just for you and I’ll make sure to absolutely annihilate them.&gt;” </span>He said, giving Saoirse a wink.<br>
<br>
The old frog monk who had been training Melia came forward and said,<span style="color: rgb(65, 168, 95)"> “&lt;I believe those arrangements are agreeable, we can train Arranog’s Dranth’s slaves in the case that he loses for the time period described.&gt;”</span><br>
<br>
The other monks who listened appeared to be in agreement.<br>
<br>
It looked like once again Arranog didn’t see there being a possibility where he could lose so he hadn’t spent much thought on the downsides, if one was observant they’d even see that he had been listening somewhat listlessly when she went over the terms should he lose against the frogs.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">Ryuuji Kamimura<br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/191375bb603b38aa92b3af07a1830856-1-1-1-1-1-jpg.1139788/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/1076/1076917-fba3d9fd3d3ca961558cb26cf83e3b81.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="191375bb603b38aa92b3af07a1830856-1-1-1-1-1.jpg" title="191375bb603b38aa92b3af07a1830856-1-1-1-1-1.jpg" width="100" height="175" loading="lazy"></a></span></b>​</div>Upon seeing Dranth sign the contract with Saoirse..a bit of a smirk returned to Ryuuji’s face. <i><span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">That's right you dense  lizard, sign away, whenever she brings out a contract..I just know that it’s going to be good for one of us…</span></i> He thought to himself. Saoirse had already won either way, she was still going to get someone else’s slave as part of the agreement for the first part, he reckoned at least given the language barrier as soon as he got enough experience he’d try to acquire it, as that’s what Ryuuji had come to understand how this world works.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">“Thank you Miss Desrosiers.”</span> He gave her a respectful low bow once more. <span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)"> "I’m certain you’re correct, from what I can see it looks like you’ve gotten most..favorable conditions.” </span>He said more quietly toward the latter part  with a tone to his voice which suggested he was well aware of the sort of thing she was plotting, now that they were all presumably  off to the side of the field once again to spectate. For now Ryuuju stood by and waited, while a young adult frog monk came over  and secured Arranog’s hand behind his back with some sort of enchanted looking rope with the slight green glow it gave off.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(209, 72, 65)">“&lt;ALRIGHT THEN BRING IT ON!&gt;”  </span>Suddenly dragonic wings began to spread from out of Arranog’s back materializing in a fiery orangy red haze, spread out quite a bit, as he assumed a combative position with his one arm out.<br>
<br>
There was a group of at least 12 or so  frog monks on the other side who looked diminutive in comparison to him, some of them had no weapons, others carried a bostaff, then there was the one who had trained Melia once again, carrying his training sword, this time one which had a similar enchantment on it which had been used during Melia’s brawl.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(209, 72, 65)">“&lt;Big mistake bringing your toys to a real fight when you’re up against someone like myself!&gt;”<br>
<br>
<br>
“&lt;Cause believe me when I say I’m not in the mood to hold back!&gt;”</span><br>
<br>
One of the monks had brought out a gong which was hit when it was time to begin and everyone was confirmed to be in position, Arranog on one side of the field, the monks on the other.<br>
<br>
Upon hearing the gong Arranog flew up into the sky, before he began charging what looked like a sizable fiery ball of energy in his hand, which then began to spread up his entire body as he was engulfed in some sort of fiery intense fiery aura.<br>
<br>
Kane was actually a bit surprised to see this..this guy knew fire magic? What grade was this guy even? He hadn’t gotten a chance to appraise, but this was looking pretty advanced just from looks alone.<br>
<br>
Arranog then aggressively came swooping down toward the frogs looking like he had picked one out which he wanted to deliver a devastating blow too. However the other frogs had started to move about, and then Arranog’s fist appeared to collide with his target frog sending the smoking blackened body flying on impact out of the confines of the field.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(209, 72, 65)">“&lt;SEE! Completely out of my league!&gt;"</span> He began to laugh. Ryuuji was visibly surprised at just how brutal that had been, but it wasn’t until he noticed..one of of the other frog monks nearby who had some sort of wooden necklace around his neck who appeared to be chanting words in beastial softly too himself before suddenly the very same frog who looked like he had gotten punched so he went flying suddenly appeared behind Dranth looking fine, and gave him a solid kick to the back of the head, causing him to stutter forward.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(209, 72, 65)">“&lt;W-WHAT THE HELL?!&gt;”</span> Arranog sounded  pained, enraged, and disorientated. The some fiery aura now intensifying even more as the very ground beneath Arranog began to crater inwards some around his feet.<br>
<br>
Another one came up and hit him in the  right leg with a bo staff at the joint  causing him to buckle forward a bit more..<br>
<br>
Arranog then immediately tried to give another powerful punch at first the one who had kicked him, leaving him open to another strike on the other leg with the bo staff. The fiery aura singed the tool where it made contact but it was still operational.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">“It would appear their skillset is more diverse than I thought..but it is undeniable that Mr. Dranth would be..a very formidable opponent.”</span>  Ryuuji would have had to have guessed the two frogs were working together, one of them intentionally making themselves an easy looking target, giving Dranth something that felt like his hit had connected while the other one used some kind of illusion magic to make it look like the frog had been hit.</div>

During the conversation, Saoirse picked upon something <i>very</i> interesting coming from the frogs. Something that she hadn't known before, even though she <i>definitely should've</i> known about it. As Dranth was busy getting ready to fight the frogs, Saoirse eye's turned to Ryuuji with a mildly intimidating (F) gaze. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“I was not aware you were carrying a magic item with you.”</b></span> She stated, a cold hint of displeasure audible in her tone of voice. If she wasn't in a great mood due to having pretty much assured herself a free slave, she might've been a lot more inclined to immediately confiscate it. For now, however, she decided to go easy on him. Probably too easy, but she did have a front to keep up with these frogs as well. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“You can explain it to me later.”</b></span> She eventually stated, letting him off the hook for now.<br>
<br>
On the topic of being in a good mood, she chuckled at seeing Dranth fail to take down one of the frogs due to the usage of an illusion. She'd reply to Ryuuji somewhat hushed, as to not let others listen in on them too easily. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“He's very strong, but he's underestimating them way too much. Besides, I've given them a good reason to really give it their all by having him promise to let his slaves be trained by them. These goody-two-shoes will see it as an opportunity to show him to be nicer to his slaves and give it their all, perhaps even risking their own well-being, for the sake of his slaves.”</b></span> Her smiled brightened. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“People trying to be overly nice are so easily to predict~ All they need to do now is to show they at least live up to something~ If not, I'll have a date and we'll be out of here, but I've got some hopes for them, now that they're extra motivated.”</b></span></div>

Oh great, he definitely recognized the intimidating gaze which Saoirse sent toward him, and her tone of voice. The pendant in question which she was referring to   was something he had ended up when he arrived in the world, and it was actually something that hadn’t even crossed his mind to tell her about. Of course it was understandable why she was far from thrilled. It was the very reason as to why he had been so careful to show her everything he found when they had been scavenging at the razed village site.<br>
<br>
He knew that he needed to react accordingly so as to not make the situation worse than it was at the moment.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">“My sincerest apologies Miss Desrosiers, I meant no offense, the item in question..slipped my mind, I certainly should have told you immediately.” </span>Ryuuji replied with a  very low bow given her height once again.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">“Thank you Miss Desrosiers, I’ll do that whenever you deem fit.”</span> He was quick to say again still down low, essentially prostrating himself in front of her.<br>
<br>
This was the only way he felt he had any chance of not severely setting back his relatively positive relationship with her thus far.<br>
<br>
He of course got up again when it seemed like the right time and listened to what she had to say attentive. He gave her a nod, speaking back silently. <span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">“I believe underestimating is a most appropriate word in this situation.”</span><br>
<br>
Ryuuji smiled some upon hearing her plan, it was more one which veered on mischievous rather than friendly or soft, it was all calculated, this Dranth fellow had taken Saoirse’s bait, and regardless of the situation it sounded like they still came out on top. She was still going to get a free slave, with the news of the pendent dropping he wasn’t sure what the status of him getting the slave under his wing was, but frankly Ryuuji was okay either way, there would be other opportunities to prove himself.<br>
<br>
Now with the fight popping off and Dranth taking hits, Ryuuji had a sneaking suspicion  that this dragon guy was about to unleash some more powerful moves in order to try to win. Ryuuji took notice that all the other slaves were watching the scene intently, with the exception of that younger one who looked like he was sort of just looking off into the distance.<br>
<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(209, 72, 65)">Arranog Dranth<br>

<span style="color: rgb(209, 72, 65)">“&lt;I’VE HAD ENOUGH OF THESE GAMES!&gt;”</span> Suddenly the fire aura around Dranth got even larger, the earth beneath him shifting into a mini crater even more, cracking , the frogs monks moved around hm quickly suddenly Dranth was getting pelted with rocks from some sort of sling from one of the faster moving frogs, while they weren’t the most lethal they were still aggravating him more and sometimes leaving marks where they struck. The fire aura had clearly made it more difficult for some of the melee frogs to get in and hit him as they were assessing him for weak spots.<br>
<br>
One of the bo staff carrying ones got a bit too close and Dranth gave them a pretty gnarly gut punch causing the frog to go flying and land on his back, out of breath completely.<br>
<br>
Another one got a hard swift kick which sent them sprawling.<br>
<br>
Arranog’s enraged state, raw strength,  in combination with his aura and quick reflexes  was playing to his advantage  as that was at least two frog monks who were down for the count, on account of not only taking heavy hits but also being singed by the fire aura.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(209, 72, 65)">“&lt;KEEP COMING, I’LL KEEP KNOCKING YOU DOWN!&gt;” </span>Arranog taunted after the first two fell, before he struck another one in the face who fell and hit the ground hard. However there were still several more, the rocks continued to hit him causing him to sprint forward toward the one who kept pelting him with them, but it looked like this was a calculated move on the side of the frogs because that’s when the older frog who Melia had been trained by stepped forward with his training sword and exclaimed.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(65, 168, 95)">“&lt;Way of the Wudang! Lotus pond Reflection Technique!: Hundred Images!&gt;" </span>suddenly about 12  or so of the exact same looking frog man  seemed to appear all around Dranth, who had suddenly stopped.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(209, 72, 65)">“&lt;W-What is this?!&gt;”</span> He started to try to punch at the identical looking frog men who began to rapidly move around him. Now Arranog was charging up fire balls in his fist and sending them forward<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(209, 72, 65)">“&lt;Come out and fight you coward!&gt;”</span> Arranog said still sounding exacerbated, when Arranog was midway attacking on the reflections, while he was still being pelted with rocks by the other one, suddenly all of the reflections at once all appeared to move toward him at once and strike, this prompted Arranog to go into a  desperate block his aura intensifying further but it was no match for the non-illusioned older frog man who struck Arranog in the back decisively with his enchanted training stick with a slash of incredibly cold water coming off of it causing Arranog to let out a cry of pain, it had cut right through his fire aura. But that wasn’t all a flurry of identical strikes started to hit Arranog as he was being ensnared by watery tendrils from the ground, each one caused him to let out more cries of pain and rage until suddenly another one hit him and when the impressive ability was all said and done Dranth finally slumped over to the ground.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(65, 168, 95)">“&lt;You have much to learn young mind.&gt;”</span> The old frogman declared.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(65, 168, 95)">“&lt;You are strong but you do not think enough before you act. Just as you don’t always think before you act with your property.&gt;”</span> Normally this kind of talk might have sent Arranog off again, but instead he was feeling too exhausted and hurt to say anything but let out a grumble.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(209, 72, 65)">“&lt;Fine..you win..this round..I’ll have my..slaves train at your stupid..complex..and pick whoever you want.&gt;” </span>Arranog muttered bitterly, still conscious, sitting up, looking between the frog monk who just schooled him and Saoirse.</div>

Ryuuji had made the right choice by apologising profoundly, as combined with what seemed like her inbound victory, she was quick to get in a better mood again. <s>The Gnolls wouldn't be fed today.</s> She was still a bit sceptical about how he might've truly forgotten it or if he was lying to her, but she was willing to give him the benefit of doubt and let it go for now.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Hmmm...”</b></span> She hummed, seeing Dranth do a number on some of the frogs. That said, he soon enough got the tides turned against him. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Oh my~”</b></span> She stated, seeing Dranth eventually defeated and slumped onto the ground. When he got up a bit and admitted defeat, she smiled. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“&lt;It's been a pleasure doing business~&gt;”</b></span> She figured that was all she'd say to him, as that was already humiliation enough for him to go through. Besides, she had better things to do, as she headed for his slaves.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Now, let's see.”</b></span> She clicked her tongue. Figuring she'd get their attention quickly and in full. She headed for the human boy first, snapping her finger in front of him. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Kid, if there's ever a time not to blankly stare into the abyss, this would be it.”</b></span> Hopefully getting his attention with that, she used one of the tricks up her sleeve to get and keep that of the rest of them as well. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Kiora Grenala, Zalihn Wylxina, Garrett Read or Jastira Veidi...”</b></span> She called them by name, likely making them wonder how she'd know each of their names despite only some having been mentioned. Or wonder why she'd care to call them by their full name to begin with. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“As you may or may not have picked up already, your master and I made a bit of a deal~ One of you might soon be under my command... Yet in order to figure out who, I'd like to make an offer.”</b></span> She smiled, but behind her eyes was a glint of obsession.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Excluding calls for freedom, tell me what you wish to achieve in life and so long as it interests me and so long as you serve me well, I will give you a chance develop yourself towards it.”</b></span> She paced along them, giving all four another good look-over. The mage was mostly discarded already in her book, but she'd even give her a chance to speak. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Unlike mister Dranth, I value the quality of my slaves and measure said quality by their competence, which I'm even kind enough to try to accommodate towards a competence in whichever area they lean towards by nature. Convince me of why I'd want you and in turn you'll be able to find out that being a slave of mine is even more desirable than freedom might be.”</b></span> Those were some big words, but part of her seemed to legitimately believe in these words. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“In simpler terms, this is your chance to escape mister Dranth's methods and become one of my precious projects instead~”</b></span><br>
<br>
Although she firmly believed herself to be giving them a great offer, part of her speech was pure strategy. She'd want these slaves to have the confidence to be open enough about what they'd want to achieve, in the hopes of getting a more realistic imagine of whom and what she could make flourish, but she also wanted to crush any useless chatter about wanting freedom from the get-go. Such things would only get in the way of figuring out what she'd be able to do with them. Besides, if any of them were still foolish enough to chatter about freedom, it'd be easily enough to discard them as options. It's why she painted a brighter future for them, but one that would still be bound by servitude towards a master. Just under a much better master than anyone else, as there was none like Saoirse Desrosiers.</div>

Arranog grumbled in response to Saoirse’s pleasure doing business line, eventually getting himself up and not saying another word to her. It looked like he was now stewing over the fact that he didn’t win.<br>

Ryuuji on the other hand had been a bit impressed when Dranth had started dropping frogs sort of like they were flies just reiterating that his assessment of him had been correct, he was quite strong. However he wasn’t as strategic as he should have been in an outnumbered fight, it was pretty clear to Ryuuji had Dranth been more discerning in how he fought rather than being overly aggressive and extending in places he shouldn’t have he might have had a better chance, whether or not he would have won was pretty dubious given how powerful that old frog man had been, the monks working together pretty well, the ones who had been devastated were largely so because Dranth was just too fast and strong, maybe..they were calculated costs, perhaps another strategy to draw Dranth into a false state of feeling superior like he had it in the bag? That might have been it. The monks had been highly calculated,..it really wouldn’t have surprised Ryuuji if that was part of their plan all along.<br>
<br>
As Saoirse called the slave’s names Garrret and Jastira looked rather surprised, perhaps unaware that the appraisal they had felt earlier was Saoirse’s doing. Kiora and Zalihn however weren’t as surprised by the fact she used their names but by the fact that she chose to bother using their full names at all.<br>

The young man looked back at Saoirse, blinking a bit before giving her a nod that he at least acknowledged her presence. However his expression was unchanging in how he looked pretty serious.<br>

Kiora almost seemed to light up a bit when she heard Saoirse say that there was an opportunity to get away from Dranth, like that was the best thing she had heard in quite some time.<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><br>

<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(71, 85, 119)">Zalihn Wylxina<br>

A determined look fell upon Zalihn’s face as she listened to Saoirse’s words, a similar steely glint of conviction like she had when she had gone up against Ryuuji.<br>
<br>
Surprisingly the one who had been the most distant spoke up first.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(247, 218, 100)">“I’ll speak first.”</span> Garrett said.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(247, 218, 100)">“Frankly Miss Desrosiers, my abilities are being wasted in the service of Mister Dranth. All he has me do is errands that you could get a basic construct to perform. On the topic of that, while it is true I grew up on a farm, I believe my skillset would serve well as a Tinkerer. Those around me have said I would be well suited for an academy setting, but unfortunately what Mister Dranth said is true, my immediate family members are deceased.”<br>
<br>
“Despite this I’ve looked at a lot of materials, my memory is quite efficient , If you can provide me with the necessary materials, I’m certain I could bring in a serious cash flow making my acquisition worth while.”</span> The youth said, sounding pretty confident in his proposal.<br>
<br>
After Garrett said all of that Kiora was quick to speak up next.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(237, 244, 221)">“You’re seriously saying that you’d be willing to take us in and help us get better at what we do best if you’re impressed?! Hah, while Garrett might promise you profit eventually if you let him work on something he can’t even promise you will work or  sell, I can assure you one thing Desrosiers, I can help get valuables. I was a member of a certain guild..which lets just say made valuables disappear.”</span><br>
<br>
She paused with an excited smile before continuing,<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(237, 244, 221)">“I still know how to find the right people, and targets to make it happen, not only that I’m quick on my feet, and I’m pretty great with daggers. But honestly, If I’m being real, I wanna get rich, like FILTHY rich, and I’m determined! I’ve been with some pretty rough crowds,  and never let danger get in my way for something shiny, which of course would mean a lot more shiny things for you!”</span> She sounded rather confident.<br>
<br>
Zalihn spoke up not long after. <span style="color: rgb(71, 85, 119)">“It’s simple, in my life I want to be the best at whatever I do, whether it’s brewing or  casting   spells to crush my targets. I cannot accept any less. And I’m telling you right now there’s a much larger and more accessible market for potions then whatever mad science experiment that boy is thinking about cooking up. And don’t even get me started on Kiora, are you really gonna trust the words of some criminal?”<br>
<br>
“I’m also knowledgeable on how to survive in the wild and make due with what you have, I lived in the forest for most of my life after all so I know my way around those parts.”</span><br>
<br>
Jastira then piped up, going from the incredibly worried look to a much cooler and collected one, perhaps even a bit smug.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(86, 235, 240)">“Tch, I find it rather laughable how a witch of the forest with anger issues thinks herself much better than a criminal! Conversely, I am of a most elegant and proper  background, I am capable of producing a melody with my voice which is sought after by many, not only that but I have a profound stage presence  unlike many others.” </span>With some reading between the lines it was pretty clear Jastira had shifted so quickly between looking nervous to how she actually felt as a means to show off her ability to act.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(86, 235, 240)">“In my life I strive to become a star, adored by many, that’s what I was heading toward before I ended up in this..most interesting situation..but please I implore you, Miss, I promise you I’ll make it worth your while, put me in front of the right audience and see the opportunity for positive relationships with those you deem valuable..I offer not only the opportunity for wealth but for influence and support that only adoring fans can provide..” </span>Jastira at least seemed to know how to sell herself. She was even pretty good at concealing how it was likely she actually felt. Regardless it was pretty clear she wanted nothing to do with Dranth any longer.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">Melia Hayward<br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/gyomdvf-jpg.1140405/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/1077/1077534-16450e91d710f396cf954ba1e867d99e.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="GYOmdVf.jpg" title="GYOmdVf.jpg" width="100" height="100" loading="lazy"></a></span></b>​</div><br>
Melia looked at each of the slaves with interest as they spoke, it looked like based on her expression she was thinking about them as they spoke, and what it might be like to travel with one of them moving forward for the long haul.<br>
<br>
Ryuuji heard them out and he saw several opportunities for making money, the majority of them being a gamble but potentially viable, based on what that being had told him before he was reincarnated,  even the criminal could steal from other criminals and not incur any legal penalties, Ryuuji was also well aware just how much sway idol types had in his home country, so having someone who could get Saoirse influence by association was far from a bad thing…thne there was the ambitious youth who promised he could delivers impressive goods if given the materials and time Ryuuji gathered, while they might be higher price items when they sold, he wasn’t sure what the market was as far as affordability was concerned. Getting someone who knew how to brew wasn’t a terrible idea either, that could definitely be monetized too, and she would be someone else to practice magic against, perhaps dealing damage which Ryuuji could then practice healing  but her personality was..less than desirable.<br>
<br>
Ryuuji was curious to see what Saoirse would value out of her options, it would give him a better idea moving forward too of the types she was looking for. While all of this was taking place many of the monks had started to clear away from the area and go about their daily business now that the main event was over, some also starting to clean up the area from the contest.</div>

Having gathered the attention of the slaves, she was carefully taking in their words, giving them a score in her mind. Garrett was at a -1 for having looked like his wasn't all there, yet his willingness to go first and ability to start formulating his request quickly got him back to 0. She had to agree his abilities were wasted, his titles spoke of there being some use to him in that regard. She didn't like the fact he added needless chatter. She didn't ask him about his family situation. A tinkerer could be useful, but it was one of the lesser-marketable crafts. She wasn't sure if she could have him make armour and gear for Melia all that easily, but if she could, that'd be a big saving and perhaps a future profit... <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“What type of goods would you create?”</b></span> She figured she'd give him a shot to try to convince her further. His major plus point thus far, however, was that he had the right obedient attitude. Possible future savings, good attitude, clever kid, good titles, something to develop and make flourish... She'd estimate him at about a 5/10 when it came to potential as it was. <br>
<br>
Sadly enough Kiora was also adding needless chatter in her statement by going after Garrett first. Saoirse didn't like how there wasn't a title either, just 'Desrosiers'. Whilst Garrett hadn't used 'mistress' or something more suiting, he'd at least used 'miss' first. This one didn't use anything like that at all. The way she sold herself lined up very well with the titles she owned. That said, her desire was troublesome. A slave would never truly own a thing, as they and their belongings were their master's. If this one wanted to get rich, she'd never get there. Worse, even, it sounded like she'd be a risk of trying to go against her somehow. She'd have to really get this one on board with being a slave... She decided to confront her about it. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“You are aware that a slave can never truly own anything?”</b></span> Right now, Kiora had more immediately useful skills, yet an even more problematic disposition. Worst, however, was that she didn't have an innate desire that involved self-development. Getting rich wasn't a way towards flourishing. Just like that, she'd dropped from being considered the one with the most potential, to the one with some of the least; 2/10.She'd better have a really good reply ready if she'd want to stay in the race.<br>
<br>
Zahlin started at a -5 from being a hot-head and trying to attack Ryuuji. Both of those had been highly stupid moves. That said, wanting to be the best was a good start on the way towards flourishing. Zahlin did have a strong innate motivation, which was highly useful. Sadly enough, bad-mouthing the others and not addressing her anywhere near properly were two major set-backs. Right now, even with how much weight her seemingly strong internal motivation was pulling, 1/10 seemed generous. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“What if you had to chose between your brewing and magic, would you be willing to give up on one entirely?”</b></span> She asked, wanting to know the type of answer she'd get as much as she wanted to know the contents of the answer.<br>
<br>
Jastira couldn't help make Saoirse chuckle a bit. A slave calling themselves elegant and proper, despite not even being beast, was rather humours. Truthfully, having an actress on board was highly intriguing. There was, however, one mayor issue in Jastira's please. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Adoring fans, but they'd be <i>your</i> adoring fans. To them, I might only be the evil slaver keeping the object of their adoration captive, no?”</b></span> She really wondered if Jastira could get a good enough reply out, as right now, the idea of trying to make Jastira famous was a really appealing prospect with regards to making someone flourish. Jastira also seemed to have some good social sensibilities. At the moment, she might be in the lead; 6/10.</div>

<br>
<span style="color: rgb(247, 218, 100)">“Most anything with moving parts which could potentially be developed for utility or military purposes. I’m not certain if you’ve ever seen what the gnomes are capable of, but I reckon with enough practice I could do similar if not better.” </span>Referring to the ‘flying’’ like devices and firearms which those beings had been heard of creating, as well as more complicated moving parts which served functions in larger machines.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(247, 218, 100)">“But truthfully one day beyond firearms, utility gear, mechanized trinkets, or systems for larger projects, I’d strive to make constructs, regardless of what the others say, it’s undeniable that there’s use and demands for those.”</span><br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(237, 244, 221)">Kiora Grenala<br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/106d61f1da53699d418c1c642970456a-1-jpg.1140504/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/1077/1077633-1c9ab3ba4ff90739a64d67d147c46957.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="106d61f1da53699d418c1c642970456a-1.jpg" title="106d61f1da53699d418c1c642970456a-1.jpg" width="100" height="134" loading="lazy"></a></span></b>​</div><br>
Kiora’s expression shifted to one of thought as Saoirse dropped that bit of fact that slaves were really only allowed to have what their masters permitted them to use, any goods could be stripped away at a moment's notice.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(237, 244, 221)">“I guess you're right…I hadn’t thought about it like that.” </span>She sounded a bit more subdued now, before she continued, <br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(237, 244, 221)">“It’s not just getting the shiny things, it’s the thrill of getting them! If you think I’m satisfied where I’m at..there’s no way, this is a way of life for me! I want to keep aiming for more impressive feats, I wanted to take over as leader of the guild but I could settle for putting my effort toward however you deem my skills most valuable ! If being owned by you means that  getting to keep whatever I take or not is decided by you, then..that’s still more preferable to staying with Mister Dranth any longer!”</span> <br>
<br>
She exclaimed, looking more  determined now. That was a pretty bold move to just say outright with him not all that far away, it sounded like she was quite keen on getting out from being under his ownership. That much was understandable from the presumable beatings he gave out  from time to time as evidenced.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(71, 85, 119)">Zalihn Wylxina<br>

When Saoirse spoke to her she looked back, the same determined look not leaving her face, but much like the other’s Saoirse’s question left her with something to consider. She looked to her catalyst, then back to Dranth’s direction, and then back to Saoirse’s.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(71, 85, 119)">“If I had to give up on one entirely, I guess..as much as I absolutely hate to admit it..it’d be the magic, I was always better at brewing..thats why I even have this catalyst here, because for some reason..I should be able to do what HE can do..but here I am, so yeah..I’d strive to become the best damn potion brewer this side of the world has ever seen.”</span> <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(86, 235, 240)">Jastira Veidi<br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/screenshot-2024-01-25-at-2-06-28-pm-png.1140509/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/1077/1077638-01a0fe60abae069e57fcf012046ccf7d.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="Screenshot 2024-01-25 at 2.06.28 PM.png" title="Screenshot 2024-01-25 at 2.06.28 PM.png" width="100" height="143" loading="lazy"></a></span></b>​</div><br>
Jastira looked back at Saoirse as she too was now in thought but unlike the others she took significantly less time, smiling a bit Saoirse’s way as her ears picked up on the bit of chuckling.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(86, 235, 240)">“Oh, I can assure you, I have ways of preventing problems like that..”</span> Jastira then once again changed her tone and the way she presented looking like any bubbly and caring idol type would be.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(86, 235, 240)">“In addition to  all of your support, I would like to give my sincerest gratitude toward my ever supportive, and my most beloved owner Miss Desrosiers! Without her It wouldn’t be possible for me to get better each day and be here in front of you all to give this special performance which was made just for you!”</span> Jastira really played up the friendly, extroverted, and caring look, before she reverted back to the more somewhat snooty vibe she had.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(86, 235, 240)">“Of course I would only be speaking the truth..based on the far from above average conditions of your property.”</span> She’d gesture to Melia and Ryuuji<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(86, 235, 240)">“ I'd go as far to say I'm certain that would be the case. Plus, after all you’d be the one accredited for really allowing me to  improve and choosing to  share me with the world as not only my owner by manager,  rather than keeping me locked up in someone’s group..”</span> She’d glance over to Dranth then back to Saoirse.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">Ryuuji Kamimura<br>

Ryuuji during this process stayed rather quiet waiting and observing, listening to their answers which thankfully they had used common so far. Garrett didn’t sound like a bad choice if he could make good on his skillset constructs could be high price items, or even working in tandem with the West Empire military and get paid there wouldn’t be bad.<br>
<br>
Kiora and  Zalihn if truthful could also provide them some income or be of use depending on how Saoirse wanted to operate, they really could get a proper adventuring party going at this rate depending on who was picked, which wouldn’t necessarily be bad.<br>
<br>
Then there was Jastira…Ryuuji couldn’t help but get a gut feeling..she was perhaps closer to how Saoirse or himself operated. Which wasn’t bad to have as an ally, it was pretty obvious to him she was the sort who could be manipulative if she desired, and she was rather attractive..as far as he was concerned, she shouldn’t be hard to sell, gaining influence in areas through her fans sounded far from a bad thing too.. granted he wasn’t entirely sure how popular she’d be with beasts but that was mostly because he wasn't one himself, but he was sure they could find the right demographic if her voice was as good as she implied.<br>
<br>
<br>
Ryuuji supposed worse case scenario if Saoirse made an unfavorable choice she could just sell off the slave or trade them for another.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">Melia Hayward<br>

I'm sure whoever she picks It'll be the right choice."</span> Melia said having faith in her Mistress.<br>
<br>
Ryuuji nodded responding softly back,<span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)"> "Right you are..we have ways of making it work..whatever the case."</span></div>

She looked at Garrett and nodded. What he promised to offer sounded incredibly useful, but she realised the biggest downside was that it would take a lot more than just for 'him' to be her slave. She'd need to get the guy a workshop, tools, perhaps even personnel. As highly appealing it seemed to have a slave that could essentially build more slaves for her, in the form of constructs, she knew he'd be not be able to offer her much at the very start. <br>
<br>
Kiora was interesting for sure, but Saoirse, when it came down to it, was too lawful to risk it. It was clear Kiora lacked two important things as well, motivation to serve her and play along and motivation to really develop her own skills. Although her skills might deliver the most instant benefit, it was clear they'd also be the most risky and most likely to result in trouble later down the line.<br>
<br>
Zahlin, to her surprise, choose for brewing. Could someone that perfected brewing be considered flourishing? It was a truly interesting thought, but Saoirse's issue with her was the same as it had been with Garrett. She'd need too many resources to really help her out with that in the short term. Even more to make it profitable. <br>
<br>
However, Jastira was quickly winning her over. The act was convincing. She was quick-witted. Clearly, she also had the wits to sense Saoirse's intention and to reply in accord to that. Not only could this girl be amazing for her reputation, she could be great at helping her win over customers and potential future slaves alike. Her singing might even be an immediate possible source of revenue, without needing any expensive tools or set-ups. Not only that, the girl delivered the finishing blow by expressing both a willingness to develop herself to flourish as a singer as well as a willingness to do so under Saoirse's guidance, like she'd known exactly which buttons to press to get Saoirse hyped up. <br>
<br>
As Saoirse's smile widened, she took out the contract from before and, having made her choice, signed the name [Jastira Veidi] on it to complete the official transfer of property. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Congratulations Jastira, you're in.”</b></span> She stated, clearly suggesting it was a hefty prize that Jastira just won for herself. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Whenever we stay at a public place, I'll allow you to perform, both as a way to practice and gain fame, as well as to generate revenue.”</b></span><br>
<br>
She then turned to the others. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“As for the three of you, I have a different proposal. Right now, mister Dranth has signed a deal that'll have the three of you be trained by these frogs for three months, meaning that he will have to adjust to their regime as well. Take this as your chance to show him you're worth more than he gives you credit for...”</b></span> She then spoke at a hushed voice, a lot more mischievous... <span style="font-size: 10px"><span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“or work together to use this exercise to break him altogether and turn the tables on him.”</b></span></span> She chuckled, acting like she'd never said a thing at all. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Either way, I'm afraid I currently do not have the capital or resources to fully provide for either a Tinkerer nor a Brewer, but should I acquire those within the next three months and should mister Dranth suddenly be willing to sell his slaves for some reason, I'd be willing to buy you from him.”</b></span> <br>
<br>
She turned to Kiora. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“As for you, take these months as a time to find out on what you might wish to develop about yourself. Being rich would be great, but I do not believe that it would lead to flourishing. If you find something to strive towards, to develop yourself towards, I would consider extending my offer to buy you as well, should the time come.”</b></span><br>
<br>
Truly, she was a saint, giving even the rejects a chance to sell themselves to a better owner. That said, she saw some degree of potential in all of them and simply hated seeing it go to waste. Oh, right, the fact that the next three months might mean Dranth effectively gets broken down and gives up to the point he might sell them for cheap was also a fun prospect. Either that, or the frogs would change him so much that he'd free his slaves, which would be a waste, but it was a calculated risk she'd have to take. <br>
<br>
She then turned to Ryuuji. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Get rid of the bruises on our newest companion, will you? We can't have this future start be looking like her master would abuse her.”</b></span> She smiled, already imaging future possibilities. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Right, you might as well practice on the other three as well, now that the frogs are in control, that would be a logical thing, no?”</b></span> Perhaps she could still get these three to develop something of a saviour complex towards her, even though she didn't take them right away.<br>
<br>
For the immediate future, she could sell Ryuuji's healing and use Jastira to draw in customers and/or get tips by performing, whilst Melia would ensure that nobody would try anything stupid. She smiled at Melia next. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Seems like I can't give you a training partner just yet, but she should definitely be of use getting us funds for new gear.”</b></span></div>

He had been continuing to quietly assess the risk of each choice and what would bring them value as a group, afterall a useless slave was pretty much  just a resource sink which they didn’t want as far as he was concerned as he was sure Saoirse felt pretty similarly. <br>
<br>
When he saw Saoirse write down a name he felt some anticipation build, as to what her choice would be. When he heard Jastira, he felt a bit relieved. Thank goodness, that would surely be a safe bet if they could get someone like her some fans..if she was half as good as what she claimed to be at singing of course that was. It would also mean there was some revenue to be made pretty quickly  if Saoirse  could get her working. Since she had picked her some thoughts went through Ryuuji’s mind since he had last been in Japan, he had seen idol groups in his time, maybe he could make some suggestions to Saoirse based on that and see if employing some of the same strategies might help Jastira become more profitable for her. Surely there was some sort of cheap magical stick that glowed which could be passed out to audience members to participate no? There were all kinds of possibilities in Ryuuji’s mind now..yes this was a good choice, if he had to be enslaved then..Saoirse was turning out to be most ideal.<br>

Jastira looked back at the others who had once been enslaved along side her with a bit of a smug look upon her face. <br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(86, 235, 240)">“Of course, I promise that you made a wise decision my managing mistress~”</span> She responded looking back to Saoirse before giving her a bow.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(86, 235, 240)">“I think that’ll be a grand arrangement. Of course even if I know that I’m simply meant to be on stage in front of the masses, you have to start somewhere..Mister Dranth wasn’t exactly great at helping me keep that public momentum going..”</span> She said looking a bit distastefully in his direction.<br>

Upon seeing Jastira get selected instead of himself, he clenched his fist, and looked down a bit, his eyes just out of view by his hair now, however he looked up again when Saoirse turned to speak looking curious at what she had to say. Garrett nodded at Saoirse’s words.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(247, 218, 100)">"I’ll show everyone what I'm made of then…Thanks for the opportunity. And thank you for keeping the possibility open.”</span> He said looking determined. Even if she hadn’t bought him she had given him the ability to try to show his worth so he could be doing what he wanted and it was apparent he was thankful for that. His eye also looked intrigued at the latter part of her suggestion like the thought hadn’t crossed his mind, about turning the tables on Arranog, even as it was obvious he understood he did not comment on that bit.<br>
<br>
<br>

Zalihn however visibly stomped her foot, and grumbled under her breath to herself when she saw that Saoirse wasn’t picking her, not only that but she glared daggers Jastira’s way when she had given that smug look, it wasn’t unreasonable to assume that Zalihn wanted to slug Jastira in the face or perhaps throw a spell her way. <br>
<br>
However she did listen  to Saoirse’s proposal as well if more agitated than the others while she did it..however when she heard there was still an opportunity to be possibly purchased later the same steely glint of conviction took hold in her eyes, when Saoirse mentioned possibly turning the tables on Dranth she looked over his way with daggers and then looked back to Saoirse.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(71, 85, 119)">“I’m gonna train really hard, and when you see me again I’ll prove that I AM capable of being the best damn brewer the Spirit King has ever laid eyes on!” </span>She exclaimed sounding highly motivated to prove to not just Dranth but everyone that she was in fact capable, given the really quite bold claim.<br>

<br>
However she did look a bit intrigued when Saoirse mentioned turning the tables. A somewhat mischievous glint in her eyes, unlike the other two she didn’t proclaim that she’d show anyone anything more like she was in thought, but when Saoirse addressed her more specifically she looked over at attention.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(237, 244, 221)">"I'll prove that I can flourish in whatever I set my mind! No matter what the others said about my background! I’ll be a worthy purchase yet, I swear!” </span>She said, sounding more determined once again, the tone shifting.<br>
<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">“Of course Miss Desrosiers.”</span> Ryuuji was quick to respond to her with another low bow with her height in mind.<br>

This time he didn’t even make a grand gesture, he didn’t need too with componentless magic, the skin that was exposed on his hands gaining the glowy lines once again, until suddenly the bruises on Jastira went away, as did any of the bruises on the other few slaves. He got a thanks from Garrett and Kiora, however Zalihn still seemed rather bitter over the magic issue, pouting a bit after being healed up.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(86, 235, 240)">“My my, who would have thought a human of all things would know how to really use magic like that?”</span> Jastira commented, looking at herself, evidently pleased the bruising had gone away.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(86, 235, 240)">“Must be a testament to your abilities if you can even get something  like him to cast like that, without a catalyst no less?” </span>She said turning to Saoirse.<br>

Melia looked to Saoirse first.<span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)"> “Thank you for your generosity Ma’am,  Of course you made a stellar decision as usual and new gear will definitely come in handy, I’ll make sure to keep our new friend safe too, ” </span>She replied while eventually looking over to Jastira toward the part about protecting.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(86, 235, 240)">“Well if your human is capable of casting like that, and I already saw what that one was capable of in her fighting..then I imagine  what she says is true and I will be in safe hands.”</span> <br>
<br>
<br>
After that was all said and done Some of the remaining frog monks then proceeded to brief Arranog and his remaining slaves as to what they could expect. Mainly that Dranth was expected to not lay a finger on his slaves to harm them, and that the assets needed for their respective skill sets would be provided in part at Dranth’s expense as part of the agreement the frogs wanted  which surprisingly it looked like Arranog was willing to go through with since he had made that deal.<br>
<br>
 Saoirse, Melia, Ryuuji and Jastira were free to do as Saoirse saw fit for the rest of the day.</div>

Managing mistress? That surely had a fun ring to it. If she hadn't been convinced of her choice already, she'd been even more convinced now. She was a tad surprised the other three were hopeful and took her words to heart. It honestly meant Dranth had done a great job, in a sense, as he'd made these slaves desperate for a better future, which made them an ideal bunch to pick up and try make flourish. Perhaps she should target more slaves like this in the future? Either way, she'd be curious to learn what she'd return to after three months, should she run into Dranth again. <br>
<br>
Jastira was further proving to fit right in when she complimented Saoirse for Ryuuji's magical capabilities. That said, Saoirse was gracious enough to share some of that praise. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“My only ability was to spot and verify his potential and assuring he'd be trained rather than eaten by gnolls. The rest is thanks to his own work and the training from these frogs bringing out the potential.”</b></span> <br>
<br>
As for deciding on their tasks for the rest of the day, Ryuuji was lucky that Saoirse had forgotten about his pendant and was debating their next moves instead. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Considering the frogs proved their worth, we'll stay here a few more days to ensure we get the most out of them.”</b></span> <br>
<br>
She turned to Jastira. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“These frogs have a fairly large library that we'll be digging through. What we're looking for are areas within the Empire with a population wealthy enough to pay for entertainment and healing, but poor enough to not be able to afford those things regularly. You should look up what type of folk songs and topics are popular in these areas in order to prepare some songs on them. Matching what's already popular in such areas would be a great start, especially considering you're not a Beast and might not draw in any attention or negative intention if your songs seem against our culture. You should also let me hear you sing, come to think of it, as I'm curious to know what I'll be working with.”</b></span> <br>
<br>
She turned to Ryuuji. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“You're free to come help out in the library as well, in planning our next journey, but your main focus should be training your ability to cast a lot. We'll be selling your healing to the masses soon, so you'd best be able to keep up. Ah, right, I'll also give you permission to use the baths in the evenings.”</b></span> She decided to be generous and give him some time off to recover, as things had gone exceedingly well thus far.<br>
<br>
Then she turned to Melia. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“I'd like for you to continue your training with the frogs for now, although we'll meet again at the baths tomorrow.”</b></span> She hesitated for a moment, but figured some team-building might not be a bad thing. <span style="color: #BC8F8F"><b>“Jastira, you'd be welcome to join us as well.”</b></span> With that all planned out, it felt like their time here was definitely some time well-spent. It'd already earned her a free slave and and some future potential candidates and increased Melia's and Ryuuji's powers, after all.</div>

<span style="color: rgb(86, 235, 240)">“So humble too, he best be thankful that you graciously saved him from such a fate…Only so many I know of who would have even bothered.” </span>Jastira spoke matter of fact.<br>
<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">Ryuuji Kamimura<br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/191375bb603b38aa92b3af07a1830856-1-1-1-1-1-jpg.1141075/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/1078/1078204-fba3d9fd3d3ca961558cb26cf83e3b81.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="191375bb603b38aa92b3af07a1830856-1-1-1-1-1.jpg" title="191375bb603b38aa92b3af07a1830856-1-1-1-1-1.jpg" width="100" height="175" loading="lazy"></a></span></b>​</div><br>
Ryuuji of course nodded, <span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">“Naturally I’m ever thankful to Miss Desrosiers for saving my life and giving me an opportunity for..many great things, I look forward to working along side you Jastira."</span><br>
<br>
Jastira looked back at him and just nodded with a smile, truthfully Ryuuji was already getting the vibe she probably met the Fae stereotype he had heard in which many of them saw humans as much lesser beings too, Ryuuji knew from experience with the sorts of smiles he had gotten in the office which reminded him of hers, the sort which were given when someone just wanted to get the interaction over with again. Well too bad, she’d be working with them whether she liked it or not, was the thought that crossed his mind.<br>
<br>
Melia and Ryuuji both confirmed to Saoirse that they understood her intentions for staying longer.<br>
Since  they had proven valuable Ryuuji supposed Saoirse’s moves were calculated as far as not trying to extort the frog for  unbalanced deals on the goods he saw, she was probably in the building good repertoire phase with them between Dranth and acting kind, should she come back later she’d have leverage to collect on her benevolence..exactly the type of strategy Ryuuji could understand and appreciate.<br>
<br>
Jastira was immediately at attention when Saoirse spoke to her, at attention. <span style="color: rgb(86, 235, 240)">“Of course I can provide a nice test demo so you can hear what you’re working with, I think you’ll find it most pleasant.” </span>It was pretty dubious that Jastira was pleased to hear that she’d have to sing songs focused on things beasts would respond to, to start, but even if she had displeasure she did a good enough job of masking it and being respectful to Saoirse.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(86, 235, 240)">“And I will admit you are correct, it is the nature of business to appeal to local tastes, I’m certain I’d be able to put together a list of relevant  topics and songs once we figure out where we’ll be going next.”<br>
<br>
“That..would be most appreciated change of pace, I’m afraid..that Mister Dranth had a tendency to want to.bathe..in closer ways...” </span>She almost shuddered when she said this.<br>
<br>
Ryuuji couldn't help but almost grimace a bit at hearing that, but he stayed calm and collected.<br>
<br>
<br>
When Saoirse got to the bit about training, Melia continued,<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">Melia Hayward<br>
<a href="https://www.rpnation.com/attachments/gyomdvf-jpg.1141074/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.rpnation.com/data/attachments/1078/1078203-16450e91d710f396cf954ba1e867d99e.jpg" class="bbImage " style="" alt="GYOmdVf.jpg" title="GYOmdVf.jpg" width="100" height="100" loading="lazy"></a></span></b><br>
<br>​</div><span style="color: rgb(235, 107, 86)">“Sounds like a plan, I think I can get those fundamentals down from that sword guy, and then I’ll be  even readier to rumble, and thank you once again, you humble me by allowing me the opportunity to accompany you.” </span><br>
<br>
Ryuuji also looked agreeable, <span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">“Very well, I have a feeling there  are likely still more skills and ways of using magic which will improve my abilities.” </span><br>
<br>
He nodded at the library bit, <span style="color: rgb(26, 188, 156)">“I’ll assist there too then there are probably some useful maps we could access and information about strategic areas , but as you say my priority will be perfecting my magic for our benefit, and I too appreciate the opportunity to bathe in the water, and if we’re fortunate perhaps we'll see some of those  special qualities manifest in my casting abilities.” </span> Ryuuji felt qualified for both at this point with how well everything had been going, between the magic finally working the way he intended and he already knew he had the booksmarts skills from his last life to help with library work.<br>
---<br>
From that point the plans came together...as well planned. Ryuuji worked on his magic to get it down further for healing purposes. Melia continued to train with the elder frog so that she had a much better fundamental stances which would compliment her own fighting style for offensive and defensive purposes. Jastira demonstrated her singing abilities which it was apparent she was quite capable of hitting high notes as well as those in a more reasonable range, it was also more obvious  why she had been on tour to begin with she was simply better than many who would try to do the same. In Ryuuji’s off time he helped for the research, there were in fact maps of the West Empire in the library as well as information on areas, which they would be able to determine which ones best fit Saoirse’s criteria and wouldn’t kill their budget on travel ideally. Jastira also tried her best to find information on what was popular in the area(s) which Saoirse deemed appropriate.<br>
<br>
Meanwhile Dranth and his slaves diligently held out their part of the deal and let the frog monks teach the trio. One working on Tinkering, another on their melee combat, theft, and stealth, and another one who had the opportunity to perfect her brewing skills. After the number of days Saoirse deemed appropriate for them to spend their past, the group was ready to move onto their next ambitions, having solidified a better repertoire with the monks  and the opportunity for later profit.<br>

			<div class="bbCodeBlock-content"><b>Current Life:</b> As a world native, Jastira Veidi comes from an affluent privileged background from the See of Fae. Due to this she grew up wanting little, some might say to the point of detriment in her personality, the word ‘no’ not in her parent’s vocabulary frequently. She also inherited the belief that fae are the inherently superior race and that the lesser races should know their place in the world, partaking in a Fae supremacist organization with her family designed to preserve fae culture and maintain the status quo. Jastira is proficient in knowing how to work people socially to get what she wants when she wants it.Thanks to her privilege since she was young her  natural singing ability was allowed to be honed which enabled her to try her hand at a career in singing and becoming well known.She had use in diplomacy for her family through her singing, who used her well. However on a fateful day while she was on tour her caravan was attacked and she ended up getting taken by slavers who brought her back to the West Empire. From there she was purchased by Arranog Dranth, a brutal slave owner who liked to use physical discipline.While she is capable of putting on an overly friendly, caring, bubbly and social persona which she knows will do her public performance career well, Jastira is much more self focused on a personal level, and holds prejudice toward those she deems lesser than her. Despite these qualities she is extremely driven to carve a path for an easy life with fame and fortune, with adoring fans who’ll make hers just that much easier.</div>

Got strong pokemon vibes. Is that gary oak? Good effort narrating all the npcs. One of the few slave master things in IH that isn't coming off as weird. Little curious if this was meant to be critique on certain types of slave management or if it just came off that way. <br>

N/A<br>
<br>
<b><span style="font-size: 18px">Points</span></b><br>
<br>
Ryuuji - 102pts (narrator)<br>
optional title acquired [Object] - Character has been objectified beyond the norm. They are but a tool of their master's whims.<br>
<br>
Saoirse - 68pts<br>
optional title acquired -<b> [Liudong Lianhua Monastery Affiliate F]</b><br>
Character has made a positive impression on the Liudong Lianhua Monastery faction. Character is more likely to be well received, and receive modest aid from faction members if it doesn't put them out much.<br>
<br>
optional skill acquired [Companion F Jastira Veidi] - if skill is taken, add 35pts to earned and spent portions of the character sheet. Jastira's block will match what time outlined above.</div>
