Murim Recurve Chapter 83

"Did something happen, lady Re'Luk?" Ki'Sha said, watching Re'Kha shake her head, motioning she didn't wish to speak about it in public. Ki'Sha waved her hand, motioning Officer Rhi to announce the matter in the restaurant.
The two then proceeded towards the inn as Re'Kha muttered, "The water pipelines are filled with flowing water that contains a lot of Water Qi. And, the water flow never stops. But, I saw the Sha escape using the taps. I cannot understand how it could move through the water."
"It is strange indeed," Ki'Sha nodded. She had also noticed the issue when she was moving through the restaurant's ground floor. So, she knew something was up and the situation seemed fishy. 'But, a Sha can never be controlled. So, this shouldn't be the plan of an opposing force. Then what is actually happening?'
There were a lot of factors about the situation she was confused about. Intending to solve it later with her Clan members, Ki'Sha entered the inn, supporting Re'Kha as they saw the inn staff bow in gratitude to Burfuna Ki'Nha and Burfuna Ki'Tse.
Spotting their arrival, Burfuna Ki'Nha pointed at Re'Kha with a smile, "The one who had arrived to our swift rescue was Lady Re'Luk. She noticed the Sha's appearance first and promptly retaliated, saving the three of us. Only then were we able to help rescue the others. So, the credit goes to Lady Re'Luk."
"My lacking strength could only do that much," Re'Kha let out a wry smile, waving her hands as she watched the staff members bow towards her, expressing their gratitude. The inn owner, a man with a slight potbelly cupped his fists as he bowed his overweight body, "It's not much, my lady. But the least I can do is not charge you for your stay. Please allow us to invite you to our VIP rooms."

"I'm content with my current room," Re'Kha smiled, unwilling to extort their gratitude. The moment she received anything in return, it would mean her act of saving them would have been repaid. Instead of giving them the feeling that they had repaid the gratitude, she wished for them to hold on to it so that they would be of use to her in her times of need.
And, it wasn't as if she needed to be waived of the room's price. She could afford the expenditure. But upon seeing the owner remain in a bow, unwilling to budge, and even returned her 100 RuQi, Re'Kha laughed helplessly, taking the money. It seemed the inn owner was someone who never forgot to repay a favour, so she acquiesced.
Ki'Tse took the three kids using the lift first while Re'Kha and the other two Royal Clan ladies waited. Burfuna Ki'Nha cupped her fists, speaking with a tone of respect, "Despite being injured, you have helped us a lot. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have lasted against the Sha for as long as I did."
"Please, what I did was something anyone in my position would do," Re'Kha acted humble, "Besides, it was only through a coincidence that I noticed a Sha had taken action."
"Still, it was to our luck that you had saved us first. There were no other Harmonisers in this inn." Ki'Nha sighed. It looked like she was thanking gratefully and was talking about the coincidence, but in actuality, she expressed her doubts as to why Re'Kha saved them first.
"It wasn't purely luck," Re'Kha had sensed her intention but acted as if she hadn't realised it, "I heard the chatter of your…kids when the servant showed me my room. I hadn't thought of much about it. But when I broke free of the Sha's hallucination, I thought about them first."

Seeing Ki'Nha nod in realisation, Re'Kha smiled, "If three girls stayed in an expensive inn like this, they were either part of a merchant group or a powerful family. So, they were supposed to have guards accompanying them, either discreet or voluntarily. Thinking of that, I broke your door first. You three being such powerful Harmonisers was a stroke of luck."
"Luck is a powerful factor," Ki'Nha sighed from the bottom of her heart, "It was precisely this luck that allows us now to share this conversation without losing part of our taste of sweetness. I can't even imagine a life like that."
The three then boarded the lift and arrived on the fifth floor, watching Ki'Tse accompany the three girls as they exited the rooms with their belongings. A stream of workers already arrived at the scene and began repairing the broken doors.
'It is better to form a connection with them.' Re'Kha smiled, pointing at her room, "Until they repair it, please make yourself comfortable in my room."
"Thank you," Burfuna Ki'Tse said as Re'Kha opened the door to her room. She had taken out the key when she kept the whip Magic Artifact in the storage space. That was how she avoided presenting them any unnecessary clues.
'I cannot handle their schemes alone. But, I am unable to give these three any proof of what I had discovered. It seems I have to investigate first and obtain some proof.' Re'Kha thought, inviting them in as she kept an eye on the four individuals that had been the cause of the previous chaos.
The rain had stopped, allowing her to extend her Wind Qi perception without any issue. She focused on the four individuals, trailing them to their respective houses, noting down everything of value. Finally, upon seeing them return to their daily activities as if everything that happened before wasn't of their concern, Re'Kha retracted her perception, feeling a mild headache.
She was exhausted, so even sensing using her perception proved taxing. The three Royal Clan ladies and their respective child entered her room, settling themselves within. On noticing a mud-covered bag placed at one corner, Ki'Nha looked at Re'Kha in surprise, "Lady Re'Luk, do you travel often?"
"Pretty much," Re'Kha nodded, "My master said only a person that has experienced living in every city of our country can have a broadened perspective. If they limit themselves to one place, their horizons would become narrow."
"Your master seems like a person of wisdom."
"That he is," Re'Kha smiled.

Far Strider
A college student finds himself transported into a strange land with burgeoning magical powers, and is taken in by Ned Stark. Will he sink or swim in this medieval society, and will he ever get home? ====================== OC-insert without knowledge of Game of Thrones, new planeswalker. Slow power ramp. Second crossover: Star Wars (around chapter 39). ======================= As a note, I started this as a speed writing challenge to myself. The challenge was successful, and I managed 100,000+ words (as well as some character sheets in excel and such) over 10.5 days. Then I had to stop and let my hands recover from their burgeoning carpal tunnel syndrome. The story currently stands at around 150,000 words (or ~550 RRL pages) over 54 chapters; expect a chapter a day until I've caught up with the backlog. The focus of this story was not quality writing, and that hasn't changed. I mostly use it as my semi-guilty "I need to write something, but am not focused enough to write something good" story. Expect self-indulgent writing in general, and a bit of OP (or, well, more than just a bit if we're being honest), especially later in the story as the protagonist matures into a more full-blown Planeswalker. But if you're looking for something with a power-ramping protagonist romping around the place, something you'd be a bit embarrassed to admit liking (I know I am) but like anyways (and come on, this is RRL, so that probably describes just about everyone here who actually has shame), then this may be a nice bit of mental junk food for you.
