Rui's training began in earnest. Yet for what was perhaps the first time in his second life, he was not training in his Martial Art. Instead, he dedicated most of his time to verbal and non-verbal communication as well as the most optimal communication tactics with the specific high-profile members of the G'ak'arkan Tribe.

"This is tribe leader N'Kunu," Carl brought up an image that the previous diplomatic team managed to snag of the unsuspecting fellow.

It was an image that Rui had seen before, just looking at it gave him an impression of power. The man had light skin and an imposing figure. His face and body were vividly colored in a manner that was traditional to the indigenous tribe he wore several adornments in addition to the traditional garb of the G'ak'arkan Tribe, indicating his status as the tribe leader.

"As I'm sure you know, N'Kunu is ninety-seven years old and has been the leader of the G'ak'arkan Tribe for the past thirty years, taking over from the previous tribe leader." Carl rehashed the facts. "It has taken us quite some time to form a profile on him, but we have managed to do so. Contrary to our expectations that we have of the leader of a highly militant, aggressive, and proud tribe, chieftain N'Kunu is more stable than the other Martial Artists of his tribe, relatively speaking. There have been several instances in previous negotiation sessions with the G'ak'arkan Tribe that were quite dire and could have easily deteriorated for the worst. It is not an exaggeration to say that the composure that chieftain N'Kunu displayed is one of the greatest reasons that hostilities didn't break down between the G'ak'arkan Tribe and our diplomatic team."

the man was being highly considerate of the fact that a fight breaking out at that point in time would end up causing a lot of damage to the G'ak'arkan Tribe. Even if he had, like the rest of his tribe, grown up possessing their highly aggressive, warmongering, and proud temperament, he needed to have greater awareness and foresight as the leader of his tribe. Otherwise,

"Still, that's by their standards. From what it seems like, he still has demonstrated highly militant and aggressive tendencies, it's just that he's likely much more careful. In fact, I would venture to guess that the reason hostilities haven't broken out between us is that he has realized the fact that someone as strong as he has been deployed as a mere diplomat means that the 'tribe' that we represent is unfathomably stronger than the G'ak'arkan Tribe. While he has still demonstrated highly aggressive tendencies towards us despite likely realizing this, he has never crossed a line. I believe that he should be most receptive to our negotiations. It is a shame that the Martial Union is unwilling to divulge the secret to the Master Realm to Chieftain N'Kulu. I'm sure he would agree to our dealer in a heartbeat, just based
