"The Emperor should decide himself if he wants me branded. I shall gladly accept. Besides, ass is not a place you should put that. The symbol should be above pussy." She answered. "And if it becomes necessary, I shall take the brand." Kina moaned as two men started fucking her pussy, another orgasm rocked her body, then she leaned forward and started blowing the new arrival.
Jian returned Chitsu's kiss, but looked a little concerned, 'Are you alright? They did not inject you with any poisons, I hope.'
Once the lovers were on the other side, Kyouka takes a deep breath. Before breaking out in a sprint, using her agility to quickly run towards the group. While slashing any vine that got close.
Kina again loses track of time, but light no longer shines through the windows of the stables as the studs finally pull out of her body, spraying cum all over her. The young official writes something down, as he fills her stomach with his seed. "Very well, you're done for today. Besides your refusal of a brand, your marks have been truly excellent. You've made it to the secondary round. Head through those doors to bathe and be escorted to your room. Tests will resume tomorrow. Dismissed." As she struggles to stand, she sees that the room is nearly empty, and of the people remaining, only a few are heading through the indicated doors. It seems that though there were dozens of applicants, less than ten were actually selected for the second round of tryouts. The young man faces her as she prepares to leave. "Oh, and one other thing, though this stage was competetive, the next one isn't. Every applicant can be accepted, if you're all worthy, so feel free to talk to the others. Your quarters will be in the lower section of the harem, so you may actually see official concubines. Don't disturb them if they're working, but you may ask them for advice if you wish."
She looks at her ankle, where she was caught. "If they did, they didn't break the skin. If I try to use your body more than usual, maybe be concerned."
She makes the run quite easily, cutting vines with her katana. Kyouka nearly makes it to Jian and the ronin, before she looks up as she sees movement on the wall. There, a massive suit of armour hangs, held and partially crushed by vines. A red glow comes from behind the eyes of its mask, and suddenly it moves. Tearing away the vines that constrict it, the animate armour drops to the floor, blocking her path. Raising a giant gauntlet, it slams it down in front of her, nearly hitting the redhead. @unisol_gr44 Jian no longer sees the redhead, as the armour blocks his sight. The armour raises its fist to punch at Kyouka, but the vines pull back its arm just in time. Before she can take advantage, however, she spots some more vines darting across the floor towards her legs.
Kina nods, and goes to her quarters, not answering the man. She tiredly cleans herself, then goes to sleep. She suspected the next day could also be hard.
"Tsk. Never easy, huh? Good." Kyouka clicks her tongue, before grinning widely. She first deals with the vines approaching her, since the undead was being held back. And once that was over, she'll attempt to quickly decapitate the giant.
She goes to sleep quickly, dreaming of the days before she'd become a slave, when she was Jurobei's valued mistress. She's woken when there's a knock on the door of her elegant room, at a time she judges to be not long after dawn.
The vines are easy to cut up, but soon she feels herself being grabbed and lifted into the air. The armour has her in one of its massive gauntlets, and clearly intends to throw her against the ground with enough force to shatter her bones.
"Khh!" Growling as she's lifted into the air, Kyouka tries to slash the giant's wrists before she's slammed to the ground.
Her sword clanks against the metal gauntlets ineffectually. He throws her down, and she sees the ground approaching rapidly, until vines puck her out of the air. They hold her up, a vine around her sword arm and one ankle respectively, with more vines incoming.
"Ghhhh!" Groaning as she braced herself for impact, Kyouka was taken by surprise as the vines caught her. "Fu, these insignificant little!" She growls using her free hand to take her sword, she begins swinging her blade around in an attempt to break free.
Midori tried hard not to stare at the empress' bust – it would be inappropriate to do so. “ I have spent nearly all my life in the same general area, so in the short term I want to visit new places and meet new people.” And fuck you silly if I get the chance. She kept the though tot herself. “In the longer term I'd like to grow and help both my family and my country. My family because they have always been there for me and my country because... well, it is my country, I'm not going to just turn my back on it. With the death of the old Emperor and his son becoming the new Emperor many opportunists will no doubt try to benefit from any chaos and turmoil that happens – both local people and foreigners. I find such short-sighted opportunism foolish – especially when it is our own people doing it. Sure, for some it may work, bit for most it will result in them losing a lot, maybe even everything.” She answered honestly.
She manages to cut herself down, landing on the ground painfully. Slashing forwards, the sword clatters against the armour ineffectually, but Jian notices frost emanating from where the blow landed. In response, the armour turns, cocking its gauntlet back to punch him.
"If you're half the woman your mother was, you'll do this country proud." She smiles. "Forgive me, I forgot to ask if there was anything you'd like to eat. I'll have it brought for you." Moving on, she says "I believe that I'll be taking great interest in your career. In fact, I'd like to support you."
The armoured fist slams into the wall, knocking out large chunks of masonry, a layer of frost now visible on the gauntlet. The ronin leans back against the wall, while Chitsukiko moves to Jian's side. "I'll get its attention, you freeze it." She begins loosing arrows at the armour ineffectually. They do little, but they do get its attention, the creature moving towards her.
Jian continued to hit parts of the animated armour with his sword. Then, channelling all his Qi in his hand, punched his fist against the frozen metal.
