Murim Recurve

As she walked through the streets, Re'Kha was able to see the extent of damage the three Sha had done. As for the damage done by the swarm of birds, it was almost minimal and could be easily repaired.

The most damage they did was litter the streets with their corpses. As for the beasts, they did cause some damage, but as all the houses were made from thick stone, even their breath attacks failed to destroy a house.

Rather, only if they concentrated around three to four breath attacks on one place would they be able to crack the sturdy houses. To break it, they would need another couple of breath attacks. By the time they could launch that many, they would be pounced by the Harmonisers and killed off.

She also came across wounded soldiers, listening to their chatter.

"Isn't it wonderful that all the injuries we sustained during this battle would be treated free of cost?"

"Yeah, that's great. I voluntarily injured the stump of my severed index finger using this as a chance, haha. Now, I'll use this chance to get my finger back."

"Be careful, you'll be punished if they catch you."

"It's fine, I got this injury naturally anyway. So, there's no evidence pointing to otherwise. Besides, even as a normal soldier, I killed two beasts. They sure have to reward me for this achievement."

"I guess you'll become a Harmoniser after this. Man, you're one lucky guy."

"Haha!"

As she continued to walk forth, she could feel a strange sensation. Her heart thumped as she sprinted forth through the streets, hurriedly making a turn as she entered a relatively narrow road, noticing the erect figure of someone she cherished, "Re'Shi!"

Without a moment's wastage, Re'Kha jumped into his arms, hugging him tightly as she teared up. Burmat Re'Shi patted her head, embracing her as his body shuddered, "I felt like dying when my Pakou died. I was afraid something might have happened to you."

"Thankfully…" He tightened his hug, feeling the warmth in his embrace, kissing her head, "I can feel your presence from anywhere. So, I knew that you managed to tide through that ordeal."

"I was unsure all this time…" Re'Kha muttered, not budging from her spot, unwilling to leave him so soon, "I was afraid my plans would completely backfire on me."

'Even though in the end, it did backfire on me. If not for that Ghost Qi hand at the end, the Blinded Ghost would have been in my body in place of me.' Re'Kha shuddered, turning silent as she heard the thumping heart of Re'Shi, relaxing as time passed, thanks to its vigorous thumps.

"Everything's fine now," Re'Shi gently rubbed her back, "You regained your sight now. You no longer have to struggle in the dark."

"Yeah," Re'Kha nodded. Time passed as the two remained standing as is, hearing the sounds of the passer-by. Finally, after some more time had passed, they parted unwillingly.

Re'Kha looked at Re'Shi with a saddened expression, "Do you have to leave again?"

"Tomorrow, that was the schedule. Even though I have killed most of the eyes on me, I cannot get rid of those directly working for her. She'll not spare us if I did that," Re'Shi said, muttering helplessly, "Though, it's not like she hasn't done that yet."

After a moment, he apologised, "Sorry, you were dragged into my mess."

"It's our mess, we'll face it together," Re'Kha said, flashing him a gentle smile.

"You…" Re'Shi sighed, tears formed in his eyes as his heart thumped. He enveloped Re'Kha in a hug once again, "I don't want to be away from you."

"Me too, I miss you already." Her hands trembled as she held him, longing for the day when she could hug him once again.

"Soon, I'll put an end to all our troubles." Re'Shi patted her and separated, lightly wiping his eyes as he sighed, making eye contact with Re'Kha, entranced by her beauty for a moment, "Can you wait for me until then?"

"Definitely," Re'Kha controlled her tears from forming as she turned around and walked away, pulling her hood to obscure her appearance, activating her Wind Qi perception to see that a couple of familiar figures were a couple of streets away, in search of Re'Shi.

She recognised them from the group that was in the restaurant she had met Re'Shi previously. Upon seeing that they had begun to search for Re'Shi already, Re'Kha clenched her hand into a fist, "Re'Kya, I won't spare you."

Calming herself down by taking in deep breaths, Re'Kha began to walk towards the auction house, unable to spot Ki'Nua along the way. Thinking that she might have returned to her home, Re'Kha was just about to head to the Royal Clan residence when she noticed a worried figure of Ki'Nha.

The moment she noticed her, Ki'Nha was able to identify her based on her armour, grabbing her shoulder immediately, "Lady Re'Luk, did you see Ki'Nua?"

"I left her in charge of a Royal Clan Harmoniser though. She must be somewhere around here." Re'Kha replied.

"No, I just contacted that person. She said Ki'Nua had disappeared from her place during the chaos when the birds attacked." Ki'Nha expressed her worry.

Immediately, Re'Kha activated her Wind Qi perception, intending to search for Ki'Nua when she noticed her presence pretty near, right beside the auction house.

As Re'Kha turned in the direction, Ki'Nha too did the same, watching Ki'Nua carry a bow in her hands as her hands were drenched with blood. She was accompanied by a couple of Guards that were complimenting her skills.

"She's safe," Re'Kha sighed in relief, watching Ki'Nha pounce on Ki'Nua and wrap her in a hug first before beginning to chide her actions, scolding her mercilessly, at the end of which, Ki'Nua was all teary-eyed.

"Sorry, mother." Ki'Nua apologised, rubbing her head as she was smacked by Ki'Nha. 

"Don't do something this dangerous, alright? You're just a hatchling Harmoniser. You shouldn't risk your life unnecessarily like this." Once she noticed that Ki'Nua had learned her lesson, Ki'Nha stopped scolding, massaging her forehead as said, "Let's go home now. In all this chaos, we failed to dispose of the items we collected yesterday."
