The Martial Unity

Chapter 281

"Is there a need to go that far?" Nartha raised an eyebrow.

"I'm just being careful." Rui replied.

"I see... careful indeed. It's a shame personally, but I accept these conditions." Nartha replied. "Anything else?"

Rui pondered for a bit. "There is the matter of the frequency of the fights." Rui said. "I do not wish to fight daily. However, I am unsure of the exact precise frequency of fights that I'm willing to fight in as of this moment."

Rui had yet to finalize when he was going to do his other missions. He did not want to accept a high frequency of fights, otherwise he would not be able to complete his other missions.

"I'll have to consider the matter for quite a bit." He said. "I'll get back to you on that issue shortly at a later date."

"That's not a problem at all. You can just send me a letter or a crystal message." She replied, referring to the crystal esoteric technology that was used to was popularly used to communicate remotely in the middle and upper echelons of society.

"Will do." Rui replied.

"Well then, it was a pleasure talking to you." Nartha said, smiling as she got up, performing a mild curtsy. "Unfortunately, I have some matters to attend to soon, so I must put an end to our conversation, regrettably."

"I'm sorry for imposing on you." Rui said smiling, bowing briefly. "I'll take my leave then."

They bade farewell to each other as Rui headed back. The meeting had taken place in the town of Hajin, so he wasn't too far from home. He had planned to head back straight home so that he could spend time with his family at the Orphanage.

"RUUIIIIII!" Alice screeched when she saw him approaching the Orphanage from within.

Alice ran out, giving him a big hug.
