In the End, I Was Defeated by Too Much Culture

Rita: "How about we both take a step back? You return the domino to me, and I'll give you a bottle of mid-level Forgetting Potion. You drink it, and then I'll let you go."

PhantomDancer: "You can't kill me. I have the Fragrance Blade personally marked by the Mistblade Moon Emperor. If you kill me, you'll be branded. Even though my emperor won't seek revenge from the dragon race for me, you won't be able to escape."

Rita: "Fragrance Blade? Never heard of it. I don't believe it. Ha, so funny. Who's afraid of such a thing?"

She laughed out loud, but in reality, she was deeply concerned...

Although she didn't know exactly how the Fragrance Blade worked, she was aware of how deeply the Moon Fox Clan studied fragrances, not to mention that she didn't want any connection with the Mistblade Moon Emperor right now.

...In the end, she had been outwitted by too much culture.
