No, no, you misunderstand. Wizards are doing tasks relating to their countries - I don't know for sure if this rep's work is going to cause you guys to have to fix some stuff, but it's possible based on how much of a disaster it sounded like.
[Ahito will summarize this because I'm mobile and lazy. Key points: Western Magitek Army ran an expedition for research that the original Wizards got involved in, leading to an explosion that left everyone dead except for this guy who ended up with an injured arm. Apparently hidden labs were involved. The rep was frantically adamant about repeating that it wasn't his fault, it was the Wizards because Wizards are scary and bad.]
[ Sincerely, what is up with this guy, pinning the blame solely on the Wizards? That does seem rather suspicious.
To say nothing of the hidden labs themselves. ]
He seemed quick to constantly pin the blame on the wizards. Out of desperation? Or something else, I wonder. That kind of attitude against wizards likely didn't just appear out of nowhere.
[ Jing Yuan doesn't typically poke at things that get far too personal, but he is curious here. The problem is that Ahito is still very much recovering and tired.
He doesn't quite feel it is honorable to question someone so thoroughly on their personal life just a day after their brush with death. He will even rise to his feet, to clarify. ]
I'll save most of them for later.
So, if you could tell me what lead up to you being restrained by the ghost possessing Akira, that will be enough.

But, anyway...he takes pause to digest what's being conveyed to him. But first, he thinks he might a little more information. ]
Can you tell me the details of this disaster?

Did he now?

[He worked SO hard to be polite about it.]
no subject
No, he likely would have clammed up, given his attitude.
Also, I appreciate you having told me this. It's not something that should slip through the cracks.
Though, have you informed the Sage and his assistant about it?
no subject
[He got and relayed the info, that's his part in all this done.]
no subject
Very well.
[ ... ]
There was something else I wanted to ask. How are you coping with the fact you were held hostage and nearly killed?
no subject
[Perfectly calm.]
no subject
And he doesn't know if anyone would think to ask him, whether or not it's appreciated. So, assessing the response, it sounds level-headed. ]
You do seem rather put together, and not just because of Bruno's healing magic.
Most people wouldn't exactly handle an event like that very well. Are you accustomed to going through dangerous situations?

...Given your response thus far, I won't disbelieve it.
Even rarer still is it for many to hardly fear death, however.
no subject
Any other questions?

Not much. I was on my way back to my room when he got the drop on me.
no subject
Alright.
Rest well and take care, Ahito.
[ With that, Jing Yuan will leave the room, and close the door behind him. ]
no subject
[Byeeeeeee.]
