Naive
Ryu found that Eve and Isemeine were still locked in deep meditation, so he chose not to bother them. Instead, he began to look through the corpses that he had brought in. Like he had said before, he could see that Star River wasn't very satisfied with him taking them all, but if Ryu wanted to become the Throne of this Sect, taking on his third Throne, then the only way was going to be if he could use his Chaos Qi. Or, at the very least, he had to be able to use his Primordial Chaos Qi.
No matter what, his current state wouldn't cut it. Maybe if he was claiming his first Throne, he would still dare to do this. But not now. He had thought about just doing it anyway. After all, this was his wife's Sect; if there was any place that would protect him, it would be this one. But he wasn't here to make things more difficult on his wife. So, he would need another path.
"Hrakka." Ryu called out.
