บท 249: Political Gifts

(Eris POV)

"I understand… Please take care Master, tell us if you need anything. Anything at all, we will do it," Manami whispered, ending her telepathic call with Master.

"What happened?" Lian Li asked, as concerned as the rest of us.

Manami seethed in silent anger, "Someone… Excuse me… Some pathetic piece of trash framed Master for the third prince's death. Master decided to do some investigating on his own but we might be dragged in because we are his disciples."

"What should we do?" Lian Li asked.

"Master told us to seek protection under Sect Master Qing and if failing that, go to Master's courtyard and activate the defensive inscriptions."

"Master… He is always looking out for us…" Kiyomi muttered, though all of us heard it.

Indeed, Master is just too kind. [Eris]

Yeah! Master shoulda just let those buggers have it! Kick 'em down and crush 'em like da little shits 'dey are! [Bait]

Inelegant… [Laverna]
