Murim Recurve Chapter 86

"Come in," Re'Kha smiled, watching three girls saunter in with expressions of curiosity, their beaming eyes bereft of their previous apologetic emotions. Re'Kha had just closed the door when she saw the three make themselves home on the sofa, jumping in joy as they looked at her with anticipation.
"So," Re'Kha saw opposite to them, "What do you wish to know?"
"Tell us a story sister," Burfuna Ki'Nua beamed, "You have explored different places, right? Tell us about them?"
'I haven't left Burkurel City until now. Even during the missions, I did head to different regions, but most were within the jurisdiction of Burkurel City.' Re'Kha felt a mild headache, coming to realise the side-effects of lying, 'I cannot make up a lie here. Maybe I'll just talk about an incident I have encountered. Hmm, I cannot say anything too distinct that would point it towards me. So, I have to avoid anything that might be familiar to them.'
"Hmm," Re'Kha put on an expression of pondering, speaking slowly, as if she hadn't decided what to say and intended to leave it to them, "What type of adventures do you like?"
"Exploring unique habitats." Ki'Nua laughed.
"Fighting beasts." Ki'Tla raised her hand.
"Architectures of foreign races." Ki'Sul placed her hand on her cheek, immersed in her fantasies.
"…" Re'Kha felt that maybe she had bit more than she could chew, speaking as she bought time, "Let's see if I have an interesting story to say."
"Tell us anything, big sister." Ki'Nua smiled, acting like just being in her presence was fun to her.
'Idea!' Re'Kha felt like it would work, "Do you wish to know about Earth?"
"No!" The three shook their heads resolutely, "We can explore Earth in the future anyway. We are not interested in it."

"But," Re'Kha smiled, "Do you know the fact that Earth is different when accessed from different gates?"
"Earth is different at different gates?" Ki'Nua was surprised, "I thought it was the same everywhere."
"If you compare the Earth in Burfuna City and Burkurel City, they would be mostly similar. But even then, the architecture styles and layout would have some differences. If you visit one of the cities in the state of Vilupi, the Earth accessed through the cities there would be completely different." Re'Kha smiled, looking as if she was giving details but was in fact just glossing over the surface.
They were information her master had imparted to her and not something she had personally verified. After all, the only city apart from Burkurel City she had visited was the Burfuna City, and it was now. Her master hadn't stressed it as important information as he said the higher-ups of every Clan knew it.
They had tried exploring the Earth in different cities in an effort to trigger new Quests with greater rewards. Re'Kha then placed a finger before her lips, "This is something only the heads and elders of every Clan knows about. So, promise big sister that you won't say it to anyone else."
"Promise!" Ki'Nua thumped her fist on her chest, "Adventures are filled with secrets. If we leak it, we fail as adventurers."
"Yeah!" The other two echoed her response.
Seeing their actions, Re'Kha chuckled. She then continued about bits and pieces of what her master had said, making the kids exclaim in astonishment every time. Part of the reason she spoke about it was to relieve her tension. Seeing their cheerful personalities healed her strained mind. She wasn't even concerned about the repercussions the leaking of this information would bring.

'Though, this is probably nothing of concern.' Re'Kha waved it away. The three girls seemed tight-lipped about all matters, so she wasn't concerned they would leak it. Moreover, they weren't Harmonisers yet, so none would pay attention to them. And, by the time they became Harmonisers, Re'Luk would vanish from the records.
"Tell me about a Quest, big sister. Can we really get a lot of Prana Stones if we land on a big quest?" Ki'Nua asked, excited.
"If you know information about a Quest, you will never come across it. That's the rule on Earth." Re'Kha said in all seriousness, "Also, to get more Prana Stones, you have to land on the Main Quest, and upon completing every stage of it, the number of Prana Stones you receive would increase. But, I've never heard about anyone landing on one yet."
"Big sister, what's the scariest beast you've encountered?" Ki'Tla asked once it was her turn.
"I haven't seen it directly, but it was a Kalha. Obviously, that's the scariest of them all." Re'Kha replied.
"Don't the Kalhas live quite close to us?" Ki'Tla asked, "The Kuhera Forest is only three days' worth of journey from here."
Re'Kha then talked about some things she was familiar with, recounting one of her fights with a beast she had encountered a year ago. At first, it was a headache to think up stuff and make it seem like things she, Re'Kha hadn't been personally involved in but someone else. But as she spoke, she noticed that the three girls ate up everything she said.
After that, she began to speak about some bizarre scenes she had witnessed, the unique lands on the other side of the Bahara mountain range, some stuff from her master sprinkled through the story to enrich it further, etc.
Talking about it allowed her to take her mind off things. It was a relaxing event of sorts. Over time, Re'Kha felt relaxed, laughing as she conversed with the girls. Their ages weren't all that far apart. They were almost 15 while she was 19 years old.
Not having to think of the other party's subtle intentions or the hidden meaning under their choice of words; it was a fun conversation. Re'Kha could chat freely. During the conversation, Ki'Nua asked why she had covered her head and eyes. Re'Kha gave her the prepared answer, stating it was useful in training.
Time passed in such a manner as she began to feel tired. Seeing her exhaustion, the three girls were mindful and left immediately. Locking the door, Re'Kha slept, her peaceful mental state allowing her to fall asleep immediately.
