Seeking Freedom

It had been five days since Rui's return to the Kandrian Empire.

He had hoped for some peace upon his return back home, but largely thanks to Reina, he had been greeted with a mess that gave the Beast Domain a run for its money.

Instead of dealing with important things, he was left busy putting out the many things that she had set on fire to satisfy her boredom. 

Of course, while he resented her for making his life hard, he was grateful to her for covering for him for three years upon his request. She had still largely been of great help despite her many little pranks on him.

The Martial Union settled down after his return and victory in the duel and wager. While many Martial Masters were not entirely satisfied with the outcome, none of them voiced any complaints and piped down when it came to the matter regarding Rui's punishments.
