[ Location: 'YukiKamon Splendor' Private Meeting Room. ]
Fubuki Yukino, alongside Choi Shin-jae and Shim Jun-woo, are having a meeting, discussing the two guys' reason for making all that fuss.
" Now, after I know about your rivalries, perhaps we should continue about our business, Jun-woo? " Yukino says to Jun-woo as he mentions his name inside of his family name.
"( Oh, she's not that formal, isn't she? )"
"( To think she would say my name instead of my family name, should I respond to her the same, or should I keep the formalities to keep myself proper? )" Jun-woo asks himself about this.
" Of course, Lady Fubuki, I- "
" Call me by Yukino, Jun-woo... "
" You're part of the Blue Blood Clan just like me and Shin-jae too... "
" The Noble Blue Blood runs in our veins, which made us more or less a family. " Yukino tells Jun-woo about it which made Jun-woo feel relieved.
" Thank you, Yukino (Phew, guess I don't have to convey my words formally from now on). "
" It is just as I said, about my request for you to ask the Fubuki Clan Leader, your Mother to ask Lord Loki, your family's patron god to allow the Shim Clan to see those who entered the 'Abyss Tower Raid'. "
" For we believe that the 'White Demon' is actually using one of our Clan's Martial Arts Technique, the 'Stinger Martial Arts'. " Jun-woo which made Shin-jae burst out.
" The 'Stinger Martial Arts'!? " Shin-jae quickly rises up from his seat as soon as he hears that.
" So that's the 'lost Martial Arts' you're talking about earlier? "
" Are you out of your mind, Shim Jun-woo!? " Shin-jae was angered, he felt so surprised after hearing the Martial Art's very name.
" So it really is dangerous, to even made the other Blue Blood Clan-related Members in South Korea tremble, like Shin-jae here. " Yukino says as she seemed to get the gist of how much of a deal the 'Stinger Martial Arts' is.
" Yes, for the other Clans always monitored and informed us about everything regarding the 'Lost Martial Art', but it seems I and my father noticed that the lost is still out there and used by the currently most-dangerous person of all. "
" The notorious 'God of Abyss Tower', the 'White Demon'. " Jun-woo says it again, which made Shin-jae kinda startled as he hears it.
"( Oh, so that's the whole thing they're talking about, shit! )"
"( I just eavesdrop on them for a while to only hear the word 'Lost Martial Art', did they mention the 'used-by-the White Demon' thing before I heard that part? " Shin-jae asks himself, now that he knows the real deal of what Jun-woo is discussing.
" So you're saying that Demon part of the Shim Clan, now? " Shin-jae asks which made Yukino quite surprised as she hears this and looks upon Jun-woo.
" Perhaps, if the 'White Demon' is actually a human... " Jun-woo answers this with his theory.
" If he was, maybe he's one of the Hunters sent into the first Abyss Tower Raid, perhaps then... "
" You could investigate his origins, if the 'White Demon' is indeed one of the Hunters? " Yukino asks while having another headache, for 'memories' rushes into her mind.
" How could you be so sure he is a human? Not a demon? "
" For based on what I see, no 'human' could kill a being that could kill gods like 'Adrian Waterson' in that form he's in back then. "
" Unless... "
" Unless he had something else to offer, something preposterous that we might know if we start investigating the person's origins. " Jun-woo replies.
" Since there's no way to identify what kind of monsters exists within the tower, my only option and solution is to check if he's really a human first, seeing his humanoid-like feature. "
" If not, then we could assume he's a demon who simply stole the technique from... "
" This is just a theory, but... "
" He stole the Technique from the person who 'owns' the technique. " Jun-woo says it which made Shin-jae and Yukino surprised.
" Stole it from the technique's owner? " Yukino asks.
" Gift Ability Martial Arts are techniques that were constantly recorded by a human's Gift Core gifted by the gods. "
" The Gift Core holds every information about every of the User's abilities and techniques, which also helps the User to perform for the Gift Core had automatically saved the very technique per the gods' will. "
" Because of that, there's a rumor in the Martial Arts world, that one could steal another person's technique by simply taking hold and consuming the person's very Core. "
" With that, they could have the person's 'Martial Art Techniques', even able to perform them for the Stolen Core will automatically install the saved Core Data into the new user. "
" This is what I've heard, the Gift Core Stealing method. " Jun-woo explains which made Yukino remembers Adrian Waterson, for during her 'fight' with him, she remembers Adrian killing those around her and feeding on their Core, even able to use some of their power.
" Preposterous... " Yukino hears this in disbelief.
" That can't be, it... "
" It's the truth, for the first time I had to support Jun-woo on this one... " Shin-jae adds, helping Jun-woo this time.
" A 'Gift Martial Arts Stealing' is the most heinous crime in the Martial Arts World, especially among Gift Users. "
" It always happens at some point of time, which we all Martial Art Clans will always muster our power to stop those who were even suspected of able to 'copy' other's techniques, other it was really because they were those who steal or even those who could just copy because they're so fluent in Martial Arts.
" I see, I understand. " Yukino says as she stands up.
" If that is the case, I'll assure you to ask Mother-Sama to deliver this request per your and your father's goodwill. " Yukino says.
" Even though, I believe your father must've talked this with my Mother-Sama, didn't he? " Yukino asks which made Jun-woo just nod.
" Indeed, I'm just approaching you to make sure the Fubuki Clan Leader can be more convinced if my father's proposal is rejected. " Jun-woo tells it.
" I see, a great attempt I must give applause to. "
" For no one is even brave to approach me with reason before, even those from the Blue Blood Clan. "
" So consider yourself honored, I will try to make Mother-Sama and Loki-Sama grant this request. " Yukino says to Jun-woo which ends the meeting for the three.
