Thank you. That will be one less matter to worry about. At least, as long as people remember we're fighting the Shuten for territory and not each other for personal acclaim.

[He'd bitten his tongue when Tenkohime issued her orders to the clan but her leadership approach didn't quite sit right with him. She seems reckless to him, pushing forward to claim the Underground when they barely know each other as a group. Inciting competition so carelessly will only weaken the clan and halt its progress.]

Two groups of fighters might do the trick. One lures the Shuten into the deeper levels by feigning weakness while another ambushes them from behind. Three would be ideal in case the Shuten brings reinforcements of their own and they need to be trapped, too.

I can definitely lead the bait group. My arm being bound up already will give them the idea that they can take advantage of me, after all. That, and I'm kind of used to running away. It's one of my secret techniques!

[ ... Was that really something she wanted to admit out loud? ]

[illicitly]

[He's not about to judge her for it, considering his own tendencies to run and hide from physical fighting.]

That's a good idea. Weaponizing our weaknesses makes it more difficult for the enemy to use them against us. They can't exploit what we're already exploiting ourselves.

[ryototsukai]

Exactly! I've had to play dead in some duels before, so this isn't really that different!

[ He's just... learning all sorts of things about what sort of fighter she actually was, huh. ]
