Ryoshi yawned slightly as he sat down for a rest on a rock near a river in the common region, the mans spiked white hair shifted softly in the breeze as his aqua eyes scanned the area around him like a predator looking for pray as he stretched his arms a bit and would reach back to grip his blades for a moment out of instinct before he would return to his relaxed postion. It had only been a few days since he left home to search for his wayward sister and already he was starting to find this task to be taking much longer then it should have since he didnt expect his sister to escape and get so far away before his father had taken action and sent him out, the man was currently dressed in his normal public attire which consisted of a pair of white pants and a black belt similer to a karate belt and shin high boot. Completing the attire was a white trench coat that was currently unbuttoned revealing the mans well built body and on his back was his twin swords that he was never without when he was out of his familys home.
The mans aqua eyes turned to the sky as he debated what to do while he was hunting for his sister since while he tended to stick close to home there were many benefits to exploring Clover and spreading his influence as more people he could get control over or manipulate the better he can do his job or amuse himself. Ryoshi had passed multiple farms on his way thru the forsaken region and into the common region and he resisted the urge to shake his head at some of the lowlifes he hesitated to even call people.there were so many that had places to live and had food to eat and yet they still wanted to claw and get their filthy hands on him and grabbed at his coat while he was passing thru the area just for the hope of getting ahead. As much as he had wanted to unsheath his blades and gut all of them he knew that he would have trouble doing such a thing in broad daylight and with so many witnesses around so he had smiled politely and gently told them that he would see about granting some help on his way back but inside knew he wouldent even take such a route or if he did would make sure he wasnt seen. After a few more minutes Ryoshi stood and stretched a bit.”Well break time is over time to get back to work” he muttered to himself
[attr="class","polarPOSTIT"] The weather was perfect, as Jirou made his way down the side of the river. His family was visiting friends and Jirou had fianlly been able to break himself away from the meeting. He hated having to make nice with Commoners and it showed. But he had been calm and kept his peace while in their home. But now that he was far enough away to enjoy himself, he had stripped off the fancy clothing and set it to the side where his favored servent Enlai held them silently. He had not removed his tongue, but had gave him a strike week of no speaking if he didn’t want that to happen. But Jirouw as still pissed. He hadnt been able to confront Hino about the fact she loved a commoner yet, he wanted to know who it was first and foremost and would have to get that information from Junjie or Luli at a later date. [break][break] But at that moment he was wanting one thing and one thing only to train. He wanted to simply vent his frustrations toward the universe outward on the world around him. But as he prepared to train, he felt someone approching. His martial artist training gave him a small sense of anger, and the figure approching was dangerous. The spiked white hair, the clothing that looked straight out of some silly story and the posture that he held made it so he couldn’t resist wanting to investigate. He was his way toward the figure and saw that they had been laying on a rock shortly before they stood up. Jirou smiled and chuckled. [break][break] “Greetings, you look out of place in this region, are you from somewhere else? he would ask and then chuckled. “Not that it matters, I myself am from another region. But tell me, would you care to spar? I am looking to blow some steam off from a very dull and boring day of Political machinations, would you indulge me in such a moment of freedom? Ill pay if need be.”

Ryoshi blinked as he turned his aqua eyes towards the sounds of the person speaking to him and saw he was in rather fancy but not restricting clothes and the white haired man instantly got the feeling this man was nobility,externally he didnt show it but inside the assassin wanted to smirk with devious intent.the man approaching him said that he seemed a bit out of place and wondered if perhaps he wasnt from this area. The aura mage mearly shrugged a bit but kept a pleasant smile on his face.”indeed I come from an area in the forsaken region but im not among the normal folk same as you” he explained, the mans voice was a bit deep but the tone was confident and seductive as silk sounding like a born leader who could command loyalty like it was natural to him. That combined with his posture and the intense look in his aqua eyes made for a powerful first impression.
As the man mentioned that it didnt really matter when he was from but then asked if he would indulge him in a spar to blow off some steam the aura mage thought a moment when offered payment but nodded after a moment.”as tempting as payment for such a thing sounds the chance to stretch and test ones fighting skills is worth more then money wouldnt you agree also my name is Ryuuma a noble like yourself?” he asked before introduceing himself at the end his grin still present as he chuckled a bit and took a few steps away from the man before he would turn back around so they had some space before Ryoshi spoke again.”since I'm feeling rather generous weapons or no weapons for this also is magic allowed? I wouldnt want you to end up losing a digit or a hand by some bizzare accident” he asked as he gestured back to his blades but his tone was not demeaning or mocking but courteous to the noble. As much as he wanted to inflect some hurt onto someone his blades could kill easily and he could easily get his sadistic kicks with his own bare hands if needed.
Jirou smiled, and for a moment his eyes would look at the strangers weapons. Such fine blades that fit a vagabond such as himself. It didn’t matter where they were from, Jirou felt a kinship in the man infront of him formed from their violent auras. He watched as the man spoke and asked if fists or weapons would be allowed and Jirou just chuckled as he snapped his fingers and Enlai approched the two with his head bowed deep. He then presented a cloth wrapped blade to his master who casually picked it up and then waved him away. Enali knew better then to be close to the fight and moved 25 meters away from the others to give them more then enough room. Jirou made his way toward a nearby tree and set the weapon down without a wood as he turned his back to the man. ]break][break] “Use what ever you see fit good sir, I don’t believe in letting anything be held back. Combat is for the strong and the strong alone. We are both ravenous beasts are we not? The same blood runs through both of us. The blood of a beast who wanders, hunting for the blood of others. My servant will heal us when we are done so don’t hold back.” the noble would remove his fine shirt and show the scarring on his back was deep and hideous. He would pick up the wrapped blade and using his nails would shred the cloth away revealing a rugged and evil looking instrument. It was made of pure carbon matter and as such was a hefty blade, but to Jirou who practiced with it every day it was nothing more then a simple swords worth of weight. He turned to look at the new man who he would fight. [break][break] “Do not rush into this though. Let us enjoy this violence we will have. When it is done let us be happy and content.” Jirou would smile, a friendly smile… But a smile like a snakes non the less.

Ryoshi was a bit surprised at the mans words when describing them both as beasts that enjoy bloodshed and for a moment ht thought the boy could see thru his acting but then he realized it must have been how he was dressed and thought he was like that already,thankfully it was an easy thing to play off of and would let his mess with the young mage further. As Jirou removed his shirt Ryoshi followed suit and removed his coat and as he finished he gently tossed it into the air slightly before grabbing his blades from their sheaths and unsheathing them in one fluid motions as he turned back to the man with his arms outstretched blades pointed upwards. With a small flick of his fingers the white haired man made his blades spin before in his right hand the blade facing forwards and in the left the blade was now held in the reverse grip while his grimoire floated out from his coat and opened up behind him glowing a soft aqua color.
“my your rather battle hungry arnt you no matter at the end of the day the wound on our bodys will tell us who the victor of this battle is agreed?” he asked as he got into a stance and heard Jirou tell him not to rush and to enjoy the violence which caused the assassin to gain a wolfish grin as his eyes glowed brightly with the thrill of enjoying combat.”i have no intention of rushing this I want to enjoy this dance but the question is can you keep up with my waltz” he stated before he suddenly cracked his fingers slightly by tighting his grip as one of his spells activated, the mans eyes suddenly slitted like an animals as the whites of his eyes turned pitch black and a set of clawed armored greaves manifested around Ryoshis legs made out of an aqua colored aura. As they formed Ryoshi kicked off the ground with frighting speed and sped forward before beginning his assault which he started by bringing his front facing blade downwards aiming a diagonal slash at the mans chest knowing there was a high chance of the strike being blocked.
If the strike was blocked Ryoshi would already be aiming his next attack as he would bring the reverse gripped sword at Jirous side to catch him with a slash before suddenly twisting around and giving one more upwards slash to the mans back if he got the chance. “do tell me if im being to quick I have been told my slashes are rather tough to follow” he said his tone polite but a bit teasing to get under the mans skin without being arrogant.

Spell Used- Name of Spell: First Form, Hati's Shadow Elemental Type: Beast Aura Rank & Spell Type: Junior/ Physical Reinforcement Range & Speed: Self/ 10/m/s Mana Cost: 10/5 Stats Effected: +7 speed Boost Applicable Perks: Full Blitz Description: the sign that this spell has triggered is Ryoshis eyes slitting and his sclera turning pitch black giving him a more feral appearance.once triggered the spell takes the form of clawed and vicious looking greaves coating the users legs, while this doesnt effect his attack power at all the aura form grants Ryoshi an increase in speed allowing him the chance to catch a foe off guard and deal with his target that much quicker.
Jirou couldn’t help but smile at the mans comment. He was bloodthirsty and eager to taste the blood of someone worth fighting. The exams had been a disaster from start to finish for Jirou, and he was unsure if hed even be chosen as a Magic knight. It was an annoyance he would relieve from himself by having his own special brand of fun with the man before him. He watched as the man drew his twin blades and with a flick of his wrist he had settled into a position that would give him both an upward grip and ice pick grip on his weapons. He hadnt been expecting the sudden magic however, and he chuckled to himself internally as he saw the mans legs get covered with an aqua colored aura, and his eyes change into slits of some animal nature. Jirou himself couldn’t hold back anymore, and his own twisted nature began to show as he smiled with a bloodlust filled grin, his eyes appearing to open wider from the slits he kept them in. [break][break] The Man rushed toward Jirou, and with the distance between them, he only had time two react two ways, both of which he capitalized at that moment. Speaking the activation of the spell, ‘Renshou’ Jirous skin began to turn black like carbon matter along the lines of the mans first attack, a defensive spell that prioritized where the user wanted it to be the most as its origin when activated to provide the most defense possible as quickly as possible. It spread over his skin at 10 meters per second and would cover even his smallest webbing between his toes and fingers, a true full defensive shell. The other action that Jirou took happened as the mans first blow landed against his defensive spell and caused Jirou to move slightly, he used the momentum to angle his sword arm and activating its ability, causing the blade to spring outward into several sections and circle around them both like a coiled spring, the bladed edge facing outward. [break][break] Jirou wouldnt let the man get another blow in, as he rotated his wrist causing the entire blade to invert inward and he would pull back hard with the handle to force the blade to return to its original position as the spell ended by closing in on them both, he could take another attack with his armor and he didn’t mind getting hurt in this fight since Enlai would heal them regardless. But he wanted to have fun with this man! The blade would pull tight around them both threatening to shred anything inside the area not actively being protected by a defensive spell, though there were gaps big enough to get through, a flaw Jirou would still have to find a fix toward in the future.

Ryoshi instantly on guard the moment he heard his foe call out a spell name and not even block and as his blade connected with the mans body he saw that the skin darkened and blocked his slashes which made the man want to raise a questioning eyebrow. However the aura mage didnt have time think much on it as Jirou would then twist his blade and make it come apart and start spinning it around them like a whip. It intrigued the man for sure but it wasnt the first time he had seen a unique weapon what did however have him slightly concerned was the serrations he had seen on the blade which if connected would leave some rather nasty wounds.thinking very quickly Ryoshi spotted a gap and would quickly kick off the ground and thru the gap nimbly sliding thru the gap in the blades with his heel of his boot gaining a glancing blow from the flat of the blade.he landing back on his feet and exhaled a bit as he started to circle the carbon mage.
“hmm darkening skin and tough defense iron perhaps or maybe carbon and a rather unique weapon you are rather full of surprises and I cant wait to find out more make no mistake your bloods going to paint the ground before this battles over” Ryoshi said his tone was entertained and the glow in his eyes showed he was enjoying this skirmish immensely.”now let me get a closer look at that toy of yours!” he called out as he suddenly took off into a full on sprint around Jirou using his full speed in an attempt to disorient him since it seemed he had the speed advantage in this battle this far and would then kick off the ground and into the air before he would land right in the center of the bladed vortex as the blades would relax and as he did Ryoshi would aim to slam the butt of one of his swords into Jirous hand holding the blade intent on making him either drop the weapon or cause the blade to falter and go limp. But as he did that he would also make a downwards slash as well towards Jirous chest. The white haired assassin wanted to crack that shield so he could make the noble bleed since he couldent do anything until that shell broke.
With one flick of his fingers Ryoshi would send a blade of pure aura at Jirou as one final attack before he would jump back and get into a ready stance again.he had to admit he was greatly enjoying this and he wanted to see how much more skill his opponent had, from what he could see the boy was young and still learning but there was a ferocious side to him that was starting to come out that Ryoshi had a feeling was normally hidden rather well much like himself but he himself was always excited to enjoy combat and life or death struggles.

Name of Spell: Splitting Claw Elemental Type: Pure Aura Rank & Spell Type: Junior/ Attack Creation Range & Speed: 25 meters/ 10 m/s Mana Cost: 10/5 Stats Effected: n/a Applicable Perks: Apex Predator Description: this spell can be triggered with a slight flick of the users fingers, upon one of these being done a razor sharp aura blade with fire forth from himself towards the foe, this blade is a meter in length and a glowing aqua blue in color.upon contact it will cause junior ranked damage and using the ammo rules can create more then one
The mage spoke well, his skill and battle lust was roughly equal to Jirou’s own. But the other mage didn’t understand just how happy Jirou was for this fight. each bone in his body vibrated with joy as the man escaped his trap causing it to nearly cut into Jirous own defenses. But thankfully the trigger pull stopped working and caused the blade to retract quickly back into itself as the man walked around him speaking. The spell he had used reupped, and caused the little mana he had regained to be taken away again. But thankfully it meant his shield was now back at full power thanks to the special training he had put into it. The flat of his blade held a trace amount of dirt from the mans shoes, and Jirous smile only grew. His blanked carbon covered lips made it clear just how happy he was with his toothy smile. Right now they stood at nearly 6 meters distance. A short distance that could easily be covered by his enemies speed enhancing spell. He wondered what else he would show. But for Jirou, Just this alone was enough to show him he had chosen right challenging this man to full combat. [break][break] the man was quick, his words were used to distract as his body suddenly sped forward and with a suprising speed, the young noble found himself in danger once more. But he had no need to let the man hit his fingers or hand to drop the bladed weapon as it was still attempting to recoil into itself. He would drop it willingly and using the fighting style he had developed over his short life, he stepped in to meet the mans blunt ended attack with his own. The jump in had cost him, even if only a second longer, the distance made it so that Jirou had just enough time to palm thrust upward with his right hand to strike at the mans blow, hoping to shatter his wrist with the palm strike he sent at him. At the same time, without realizing the damage he was about to receive Jirous free hand thrust outward into a palm strike to the mans solar plexis, he noticed the second attack too late and steeled himself to recieve the blow, if only so he could deliver a potent counter attack of his own. He just had to hope the mans attack didn’t deal more damage then it had before as the blade slammed into collarbone and shoot the nobles bones like a sledgehammer against concrete. Following the exchange Jirou would push hard to create distance between the two, the shell was cracked but not broken as the carbon matter showed signs of stress. [break][break] If the other man still attempted to unleash a spell, Jirou would be forced to take it. But he hoped with his counter he would buy enough time to answer the mans question. Though the blow had done more then just crack the shield. His vision was a bit blurry from the pain. As good as it was it didn’t prevent the full impact, and he still felt it when he was hit in the head or vitals. It was like he had been punched by a sandbag. I am a warrior, I have no fear of death or bleeding. No one will conquer me, Not here, not ever! Hahaha! I will forever be where the killers run free! Held unaccountable to the heavens, I sacrifice it all for my asservation of strength! So come dear brother in battle! Let us dance till we both lay dead from our Joyous murder!” Jirous laugh was like that of an insane man.but one of such mirth and happiness even Enlai stood shocked. He had not heard his master laugh with such an intense happiness before in his life.

Ryoshi could only smirk at his opponents bloodlust it seemed he was much like himself but there were some key differences, while he was also bloodthirsty he was an unknown in these lands so he could cover this up by saying he was overeager for a spar but jirou might have trouble getting away with that. There was also the risk of others seeing them battle which would not go over well with other nobles if it got out. But now was not the time to focus on that as he saw Jirou actually aim to counter his strike by surprisingly dropping his weapon and aimed a palm strike at his hand holding the blade, however Ryoshi quickly coated his hand in mana and shifted the strike into a punch so it would result in a stalemate however he wasent expecting the palm strike to the gut and he stunned him for a fraction of a second before his slash and his aura blade went thru and connected to his opponents body. It was then that the white haired assassins saw it cracks starting to form on the mans armor and he grinned ferally as he got ready to counterattack.
Cracking his knuckles again Ryoshi lost the aura greaves on his legs and his eyes returned to normal but now he gained a slight aqua colored aura around his body as he slipped into a Silat fighting stance and around his hands and arms were formed two wolf heads both bearing razor sharp fangs before the hunter pushed mana into his arms and legs and he tossed his swords behind him lightly and then suddenly blitzed forward with the same level of speed as before and as he lashed out with a palm strike to the mans midsection. As he lashed out though the wolf head suddenly snapped its jaws aiming to bite into Jirous midsection and if the man tried to block it the strike might be stopped but the bite from the aura wolf would still keep going meaning he would still be injuried. Ryoshi would keep up the assault and flick his fingers to send another aura blade into the mans midsection at close range before attempting a quick uppercut before fluidly returning to a guarded stance .
“ you say that but know this there is always someone higher then you on the food chain,and I dont plan on dieing here you however I cant say for sure but for now all I care about is sinking my fangs into you no more weapons lets settle this with bare fists!” he declared his eyes glowing with glee in this fight as the aura wolves around his arms seemed to almost bare their teeth in a snarling motion as if sensing the creators desire to harm.this was thrilling for Ryoshi he was getting a through workout and he got to enjoy using his magic on another target who seemed to have the same mindset as him. He might have to consider making this man more then a pawn.

The aura slash was unexpected, and the impact has left a definite crack in his armor shell, but it quickly healed over as Jirou slide his feet back reburned the mana he had just regained. Each crack fully healed as the shell fully regained its black luster. He breathed out a hot cloud of breath and felt as his head cleared just enough that he didn’t feel unsteady. The man before his was above his league, it was clear their difference in battle experience was large enough that he would have lost his life if the man had been trying seriously from the start. But as the mans body moved, Jirou could tell the man was beginning to take this fight a bit seriously. He knew his mana reserves were lower then his opponents, and it was everything he could do to keep the man from breaking through his carbon matter shell. Once again Jirou found himself at a weak point. He was skilled in defensive actions, but when it came to attacking, he was still inexperienced in battle field fighting. [break][break] Even with that knowledge. He couldn’t help but feel the bloodlust within his soul condensing. He didn’t have an understanding of ki, but if his opponent did they would be able to see or perhaps sense his aura condensing like a metal ball in a freezing wasteland. It didn’t weaken, it hardened his resolve and even as his muscles surged with the desire to break and maim…he wanted to test just how strong this man was! The mans arms suddenly began to glow with the aqua aura his legs had been covered with before hand as well as his entire body gaining a similar colored aura. Was his Magic pure aura? If so their magic was roughly equal in terms of raw power. Gold tier magics were all strong by nature, as they were blessed more by mana then the common people. Jirou Gritted his teeth and when the man moved, he rushed forward to meet him midway. [break][break] Jirou would accept the mans first blow, using his forward hand to punch against the mans own fist, causing the two physical blows to break even, Jirou hadnt even made it half way before the mans speed let him meet him more then three fourths of the way between them. The speed difference alone was something Jirou was Envious of. If he had enough mana he would have popped his own speed spell, but he knew it wouldnt have been enough regardless. Jirou had a split second as his brain registered the mans wolf shaped aura closing on his midsection. He couldn’t stop the blow, so instead he decided to push through it! As his feet touched the ground from his rush forward, Jirou pivoted and with a rightious…well right, he would attempt to slam his free hand fist into the mans solar plexis. His knuckle raised on his middle finger so as to act as the main point of pressure in his blow. But regardless of if his attack his or not, he would be un prepared for the uppercut. It slammed into his jaw and rattled his brain even through the shield. The deciding factor of their brief exchange was that of the slashing spell, it would collide with his shield and coupled with the damage he had already taken, his shield would shatter into a million pieces as Jirou fell to his knees coughing and wheezing as he fought to regain his now stolen breath. But as he managed to get it back. Enlai began his run over, But the look on Jirous face stopped him dead. He wasn’t hurt, he wasn’t even angry. He was in awe of the man before him. And as he looked upward toward that man, he would find himself for the first time since Fengge, seeing someone else above him as a good thing. [break][break] “Amazing… Your fighting style…Is beyond anything ive ever seen.”

Ryoshi watched as his strike managed to be even with his opponent and as he pushed forward with his attacks he saw the cracks starting to form along the shell like armor and his grin grew as he felt the next attack of his land as the aura wolfs fangs would sink into the armor and he tightened his muscles as he saw the blow approaching him, he felt the strike of the and it would leave a sore spot but it wouldent stop the white haired warrior from slamming his fist into the mans jaw as the aura blade found its mark and caused the shell to crack more then shatter into millions of pieces. Ryoshi halted his assault as he saw the noble go slightly into the air then landed on his knees stunned and winded from the strikes and with a slight shake of his hands the wolves and his full body aura faded into whisps in the wind as they vanished. As the mans servant approached Ryoshi watched in case he tried something but instead he seemed more surprised as his masters expression which was not angry or even injuried he was looking at him with what seemed to be astonishment.
As he glanced down at the boy he heard him say that he never had seen such a fighting style and even mentioned that it was amazing which made the white haired man smirk a bit as he stretched his arms.”I have trained ever since I was little but it does help having the aura of a beast as well my training never stops no matter what each day brings me” he explained his words crypticly giving a hint to what his magic was. While pure aura was one of his magic elements he also held the extreamly rare beast aura magic as well which made him even more of a threat at close range. “your not bad but your stance and offense need some work defending is good but eventually you will find foes that can crack that shell like its made of glass” he explained as he offered a hand to Jirou to help him up. “im guessing from how that shell was that your magic is carbon matter good for defense but could make for interesting attack options as well” he stated.
Turning for a moment and grabbing his blades from the grass before brushing them clean of dirt and putting them back into the sheathes he walked back to Jirou.”lets heal if needed then I can give you some pointer to put you on the right path if I want to fight again I want to have to actually put in some effort” he said though his smirk at the end showed he was being a bit playful. In truth the boy had some potental that as for sure and it always helped to be able to clash against others, if the boy was able to start using his magic for attack as well as defense it could become a lethal combo but it was all on him. Ryoshi knew how his own magic worked and his his fighting style worked with it which was why he was so powerful at close quarters, from what he saw Jirou had the potential to be almost as deadly but needed to hone his skills a bit more.
Jirou would look up at the man. His body wasn’t hurt beyond the slight bruising he had and he would stand with the help of the man who reached out to him like a mentor. He could only marvel at the man infront of him. Not only was he a golden element user, But he was a double element user with a platinum element! Beast aura was exactly what he would have wanted if he could have chosen, as great as Carbon Matter was, it was only part of what he enjoyed in life. The ability to have such a connection to the animalistic traits of the wild would have been so perfect for his fighting style and desires. He stood up, dusted himself off with a chuckle and waved his Servant over. The servant would quietly and easily spend a few minutes healing the both of them and replenishing their own mana with his so they would be at peak fighting ability. Jirou would talk while they waited. [break][break] “You are truly blessed by the Gods, to not only have both a Golden Magic, but a Platinum as well! Hahaha! With a name like ‘Hunter’ you could not be a more better match for your Magics.” he wopuld then wave his servant away with a motion that meant to bring food and drink. “Before we begin fighting again, let us take a small break. Enlai may have healed us and helped our mana levels, but our stomuchs we must feed ourselves. Do you have a preferred tea? If so I can have him make it from the supply we have.” he was beyond thrilled to have met this man. In fact, it would be easier to say Jirou was elated to know of such a man blessed by mana such as Ryoshi. He looked toward the distant city and sighed. “I must confess I envy you already. You are much freer then I as a Noble could ever be. How do you do it? Balancing keeping your own way with societies expectations of yourself?”

Ryoshi watched as the man dusted himself off and even chuckled at the fact that he had lost it made the white haired man want to blink in confusion but he held it off before he started to hear Jirou start praising his magics saying that he was truly blessed by the gods and that to hold a platinum magic as well as a gold one was amazing and that he truly lived up to his alias which meant dragon, Ryoshi simply shook his head a bit.”Being blessed by the mana is one thing but its nothing if you dont put in the effort to train and understand your magic even basic training everyday is important so you keep a strong connection to your mana.” he explained as he watched as the servant of Jirou would rush to get them food as the young noble suggested they eat before battling again even offering him any specific tea he would desire if they had it. Ryoshi only thought for a second before he spoke again.”I suppose some food would help and we can go over some of your more glaring weaknesses over some green tea” he stated.
Hearing Jirou state that he was actually jealous of him since he seemed to be able to stay true to himself while still keeping up with societies standing for someone like them. Ryoshi thought for a moment.” Honestly im due to be the next head of my family but Im not one to sit idly by while the world moves around me and right now im actually on a mission.” he explained as he glanced up at the sky for a moment with his aqua eyes.”my worthless sister has somehow manage to slip away from my familys home so natuarlly im the one meant to find her and haul her back home” he explained waving his hand like it was something natural. Glancing at the man before him Ryoshi spoke again.”so where did you learn to fight so far it seems that you have some knowledge but as I said before there are gaps where a more skilled opponent could drop you with little effort?” he asked curious as to who had trained the young man before him, it was not uncommon for familys to teach but at the same time something seemed off about his fighting style as if it was incomplete.
The man had a point, Jirou knew. The truth of the magical world was that even if you have a platinum magic at birth, one could still be beaten by a weaker magic if they were skilled enough. But that was only true for weaklings. Those that possesed platinum magics were not weak, with even a modicrum of skill they could best almost any gold magic from someone of equal or slightly greater skill. He truly did envy the man who he now stood next too, as well as that bitch named Lydia that he would be unfortunately forced to respect. They both had Platinum magics and it was something Jirou wanted badly. Perhaps then his biological father would have seen him as worthy of the head of family.he smiled and lead his new friend over to the food area, the simple setting had been made up quickly by Enlai and contained simple sweets and green tea specially delivered from the home country. Every tea Jirou had was like that. [break][break] “You must be a kind and caring elder Sibling. I also have a sister who I care for deeply, and no doubt if she would be misplaced I or my other brother would be sent to retrieve her. After we are done here, why not allow me to have my eyes and ears be on the look out for her as well? he sat down, and Enlai would wait for the guest to do the same before pouring the first round of the tea and placing the confections before the two of them. “And you are right, magic without skill is meaningless. I learned from various teachers, but non truely pushed me for fear of hurting me. Fools, I would rather be beaten then coddled like some infant.”

Ryoshi could tell that the young man before him wanted to be stronger it was just a matter of how to get him up to that level, for now he needed to build his mana up that was the biggest thing, if he could do that and work on the gaps in his offense then he would make great strides.”Indeed I do have to be cruel to be kind sometimes though but the fact she slipped away from home is problomatic but im no slouch when it comes to tracking so I should hopefully pick up her trail soon. However your offer is useful so ill give you a small rundown she is pale almost deathly so with long dark hair and indigo eyes and her given name is Aelia she should stand out as she isnt much of a people person” he explaned before Jirou went on to vent more about how his teachers seemed to not truly push him for fear of him getting hurt which made the white haired man sigh at the stupidity of it as he took a sip of tea and muched one of the confections.
“tea is made well its clean with just a bit of grassiness to it and the confection gives some nice sweetness too” he said with an approving look on his face before he would continue speaking.”if it is a problem then you need to address it with your family and if not them then find ways to push the limits on your own and improve on your weaknesses we will go over a few of them after this.” he explained as he took another sip of tea, it was good quality which was rare and rather expensive. It was something he was used to though so he wasnt to phased but to have it brewed correctly and not to long or to short was something that was noteworthy.' your blade seems rather interesting but a bit clunky have you only recently started using it?” he asked, he knew the blades had cables in it and it allowed it to move like a snake for very unpredictable movements but Jirou hadnt seemed to use any strategy like that in their bout which means he either wasnt trying hard or he was unaware of the weapons full potential. Ryoshi would address that shortly after their break and food.
