Yuri : you're kind of a blacksmith right ? How come you have all this good tea ?
Kyearth: hobby
Yuri ; making these things aren't your hobby ?
Kyearth: people can have a few hobbies. Can't they ?
" Alright. " She places a piece on the board as they were playing chess.
Kyearth: how's General handling the situation?
Yuri ; you heard ?
Kyearth: gossips.
Yuri ; he's shocked .
Kyearth: hmm...
Yuri ; you sure you want to take that step~
Kyearth: he's going to get the emperor take back his decree.
Yuri ; that's unlike Jin. The stupid way. Maybe he'll somehow scare the person into nulling the engagement
Kyearth; the officials will still talk about him won't they ?
Yuri ; yes. But he doesn't care about that sort of thing
Kyearth: that's not why it actually matters.
Kyearth: haha. How well do you know Jin ?
Yuri : pretty well I would say.
Kyearth: you seen him work in battle before ?
Yuri ; no. He doesn't let me.
Kyearth: sighs. He's a scheming asshole when it comes to territory.
Yuri : how do you know ? You know Jin ?
Kyearth: I worked with him last time. In the army. He doesn't remember me anymore probably.
Yuri ; I see.
Kyearth: you should ask him what he did.

Jin : Kevin. Have you heard about the wars ?
Kevin : yes. I have heard of it. Mare Gate is the worst. General was in charge of it. Recently asked to be transferred back.
Jin : you've been at one ?
Kevin : not really.
Jin ; that's curious. How did you meet her then ? She's a colonel. She's almost always at the army.
Kevin : she buys books for orphans. My family store sells books.
Jin ; I see. Your town is peaceful then.
Kevin ; yes. Due to General Lio's efforts at that time.
Jin : what do you like about her ?
Kevin : huh ? Erm... She's wilful and lets out a vibrant no girls have. She's... Not like other girls.
Jin : and you want to take her back ? Your mother doesn't look willing still.
Kevin : .... Mother is more willing ... Cos she knows of her riches.
Jin ; how about you ? What's your reason for taking her back now ? Also riches ?
Kevin ; of course not ! Lianari is alone now. I just thought she needs someone. Family. That's why I thought of....
Jin picks up the pen on the table and throws it towards Kevin. It flies pass him and into the wall behind, stuck horizontally upright " I don't like to spend time to unravel lies. "
Kevin gulped and kneeled on the floor with his head touching the floor " please. Don't kill me. Lianari said to play nice. "
Jin : she's not here is she ? Truth.
