"Yes, commissioner Feristen." Rui nodded. "He insisted it was an accident, but the explanation he provided was implausible. I also sensed his lie as a master of the Primordial Instinct technique and Mindmirror Symbiote. He also has the motive to do something like this."

"And what motive might that be?" Commissioner Feristen asked him.

"I defeated him in the Martial Contest last year, he did not take it well and has maintained a grudge by all accounts," Rui explained.

"Is that all you have?" Commissioner Feristen asked. "I'm afraid you've offered nothing but your word."

"I can't be expected to provide more," Rui replied. "I'm not asking for an investigation or even for justice. However, it would be appreciated if you could place us in different missions."

"I do not make the decision of assigning Martial Apprentices their particular missions. Those are made back home by the higher-ups. Nevertheless, I can put the word of your complaint back to the higher-ups, though I can't guarantee that your wish will get fulfilled."

"I see, then please do that." Rui nodded. "Thank you."
