The Martial Unity

"The Umiana Trench eh?" A bartender glanced at the two of them skeptically. "That place is not safe for normal humans, forget about it."

Rui did not bother denying the obvious misunderstanding about who they were, he actually welcomed it. The two of them had been hiding their auras as Martial Artists using their respective techniques and were posing as normal human beings for a reason.

"I heard that Martial Artists train there," Rui continued.

"That, they do," The man sighed as he poured Rui and Kane a drink. "Martial Artists flock from all over, trying to join in on the training. The coastal nations decided to keep it open for that reason, but at what cost eh?"

He snorted, shaking his head helplessly.

Rui could sympathize with the man's frustration. The people of the town depended on the sea significantly, which is why it was probably really scary knowing that the only reason the ocean didn't recede was that a bunch of Martial Artists kept smacking away at it continuously. That would be scary if his entire life and livelihood were centered around the ocean which was so volatile.

If the ocean receded, it would definitely be bad for the town, but Rui knew that it would probably give them peace of mind in the long run.

"This whole problem was caused by a Martial Artist in the first place," His eyes narrowed as his mouth curled with contempt. "Do you have any idea how many people died? The few Martial Squires in the old town struggled to hold back just the tiny portion of the wave hitting the old to allow as many people to escape. Yet it wasn't enough."

Rui could sense that he held a great deal of resentment towards the one who had caused the natural disaster in the first place, and understandably so. He could only imagine how horrendous the disaster really was, and how much suffering it had caused to the locals. He didn't expect them to look at the Umiana Trench in a positive light.
