The Martial Unity

Once they came to an agreement, Martial commissioner Derun drafted a contract that specified the details of the mission before Rui signed it and once the stamp of the Martial Union hit the document, it became official.

"So, now what?" Rui asked as he relaxed back into his seat.

"I'll have the department of foreign affairs and the intelligence department set up a team and a training program to train, instruct and brief you on everything you need to know to accomplish the mission as well as possible," Commissioner Derun informed him. "Unfortunately, that takes some time. We cannot subject you to ordinary training programs that our diplomats have gone through, that would take too long. Not even you with your supreme cognition could complete it within a reasonable timeframe, as we've agreed. That means our internal training department will need to cooperate with the department of foreign affairs and the intelligence department to come up with a tailored training and briefing program just for you and this particular mission."

"I understand," Rui nodded. "Can I access the historical reports and records documenting all of our diplomatic endeavors with the G'ak'arkan Tribe?"

"That can be arranged," Commissioner Derun nodded. "Although that will be thoroughly covered in the briefing program arranged by us, it won't hurt for you to go through them if you wish to."

They conversed extensively, discussing the details before the conversation finally came to an end.

Rui had a lot to think about on his way home, there were so many things to think about that he felt like he could do so forever.

"This will probably be one of the most unique missions that I have undertaken thus far," Rui murmured to himself as he sky-walked home. "At the very least, it's probably the only Martial Art barring training partner missions where my combat prowess is entirely irrelevant."
