Disclaimer: I don't own Dynasty Warriors. But Koei doesn't own the ROTK novel as the game is loosely(Well POORLY loose) based on it. Still, the history been written. I also don't own Fatal Fury and King of Fighters especially Mai Shiranui who is a DOA 5 guest character. King of Glory(Arena of Valour to the west) by Tencent and Knights of Valour by IGS.
Koei's Bane 2
Chapter 1: Return of the 'Posterboy'
Before the pair returns..
Three women were seen standing outside the parking lot from the Koei Building. One appears calm and esteemed, the second appears skewed and snarky, and the third instill pure hatred. The third who came to meet the two former ladies had learned much about what happened coming from those two. One, whose name was Lady Du, a concubine of Cao Cao formerly Lu Bu's officer Qin Yilu's wife who only appears in ROTK game series along with the second woman, Lady Guo also referred as Empress Wende of Cao Wei by Cao Pi.
"As I've said before, she used him to cover her declining popularity in the Warriors franchise due to how much she drastically changed since her debut," Guo Nuwang stated.
Lady Du added another reason, "Her sole purpose for divorcing Cao Pi was to gain her independence with Zhao Yun, but it's more like she wants to manipulate her feelings for him to get back at Cao Pi."
The third woman's face grew agitating. She didn't want to believe it because she was on good terms with Lady Zhen since the Musou Blast meeting and her exposure on Chinese games; she had a budding stat with her.
"How….dare she! How dare she tries to manipulate Zhao Yun as her pawn?! I thought she's different to them!"The third woman raises her fist and slammed it against the car's trunk viciously.
Lady Guo smiled chastity. That woman's rage reminded of her brother's and it satisfies her to witness the crazy woman's hatred for Zhen Ji just as much as Lady Guo despise her the same.
"Lady Ma, now that you know your man been stolen from her, will you help us break them up? She continues to embarrass the entire Wei group with her liability after her divorce. To ensure she know her place in the group, she must remain a hopeless loner," Guo Nuwang persuaded Ma Yunlu after the latter cease her extorting rage on her fist.
Ma Yunlu, the sister to Ma Chao, the 2nd most popular Shu character scrolled her gaze towards the two women in front of her, "I will make her pay for manipulating Zilong! She don't deserve such a good man who fought and struggled very hard to show the right example! She is a whore just as her reputation with her previous husband states!"
Her expression shows her utter disgust of having anything to do with Zhen Ji in Three Kingdoms media made this whole situation personal. Even her tragedy was hardly comparable to the lost of her entire family. Ma Yunlu stormed out of the parking towards the Koei Building's main lobby.
The two women watched as the sister of Ma Chao who wears a silver mail and purple scarf with a white feathered circle and wolf skinned belt stormed inside the building.
"What a dangerous woman…" Lady Du remarked.
"Hmph! Femme Fatale my ass! Have you read Fu's bio on the Dynasty Warriors 9 page, I can't believe she's still taking that role that was meant for myself in history! Just what did she do for the great Wei? Have rough sex with Zihuan when he was on his late teens! She's good with her body, the best China had seen 1,800 years ago!" Guo Nuwang started moving her feet to the building's main lobby followed by her assistant Du as she continues talking, "The rest of the years after giving Zihuan the heir he sought and the power that he dreamed of, she grew distance from us all! She loath to Bian like a crying child needed her mother's comfort and then if something happened to mother, she'll be all alone because she could never grow comfortable with Cao Cao and Cao Pi's greatness! Now the games give the exact opposite of her life story…to make those atrocious facts become meaningless because she's Cao Pi's wife. The wife of the most powerful kingdom! The BEST Kingdom! Am I suppose to be forgotten in history, Du?"
Lady Du scoffed at the notion of forgetting who helped Cao Pi become the Emperor of China, "No, you deserve to be recognized, Guo."
"Preciously," She scrolled her gaze towards Lady Du while walking. As they went inside, they soon heard Lady Ma's fury echo the hallway.
The voice of the anger tsundere startled Lady Guo as she exchanged looks with her companion. It was truly terrifying in motion.
"Is she this angry like her brother?" Guo Nuwang blinked.
Lady Du looked out the hallway where the voice was coming from and spoke, "She may have some enormous desire for Zhao Yun's heart and felt betrayed by Zhen's compassion."
Guo Nuwang chuckled, "Hahaha, I feel sorry for her. Though, she's so dangerous, I might have to convince Wang Yi to deal with her in the future. She hates the Ma family as much as I hate Zhen."
They continue walking to find the Wei group as the morning atmosphere inside the building changes from shadows near the pillars and windows in the main lobby till it gets to noon.
Now….
Fans were standing in the waiting lobby at one of the airport terminals. They have their cameras set and post signs with the words 'Zhao Yun be my boyfriend?' on them. Several post signs are all directly on Zhao Yun.
Inside the airplane Zhao Yun was on, he took his baggage from the cabinet above his seat. With him was an elegant looking woman wearing a blue dress with a white flowery collar. The skirt design has her right leg reveal and there's the full alluring wave of her appearance.
"Luo, have you checked the floor for anything being lost that belongs to the passengers next to us?" Zhao Yun asked her.
She scanned the seats from behind her and in front while Zhao Yun placed his baggage and her purse on the seat. They were on the economy class row. As celebrities from ancient history, they're trying to be more like the middle class folks despite the endorsing wealth they shared together since becoming lovers.
"I don't see anything lost and I made sure I didn't lose my phone to call Wang Zhaojun after we left from China," she replied after doing a search.
He then pull both objects off the seat and prepare to leave the plane. She follow him diligently. The stewardess and the pilot bowed to them politely.
"Thank you for joining aboard, Zhao Yun. Oh and please I'd like you to sign this autograph for my son!" The pilot asked.
"It'll be my pleasure, sir," Zhao Yun took out his pen and signed.
The stewardess also have a word with the woman next to Zhao Yun, "Lady Zhen, I thought you'll be dating Cao Zhi. Rumors must have been wrong after all, baoqian."
Zhen Ji shook her head and giggled, "Not at all, madam. Zhi and I do continue to be brother and sister despite the divorce. He's still a 'kid' and is taking it easy with Cui. It's their second chance together."
The pair soon left and what awaits them was the incoming fanfare. Unaware of what lies ahead, Zhao Yun continues to be happily contempt with the promotions at Tencent games. The working atmosphere was different than in KoeiTecmo. Zhen Ji felt the same way except she got the greater ovation.
"But, the English version should have been the same as the Chinese version Zilong. Lu Bu and Diaochan are the only ones in the English version as of now," Zhen Ji told him while they're walking across the airport lounge.
"I know and we've talked about this months ago, Luo. At least, they have the leverage to localize the game," Zhao Yun's voice turned rough when he said that. It wasn't great news to them when they found out about the localization, but nevertheless, the game came out in the west.
The changes between east and west were mind blogging despite most Chinese historical figures in the Chinese version were commonly known in the west, but to the company's concerns with localization and the fact that the game gets scorned for being a League of Legends clone, King of Glory as it's name was in the east, became an entirely different game as Arena of Valour.
"They had the leverage to rip off our western fans, Zilong…" Zhen Ji glared at him.
"They can still play as us in the chinese version, Luo. I'm more worried about players exhausting themselves from playing. They should take some breaks by eating and sleeping. The government in our birth country is very sensitive over this," Zhao Yun mentioned the recent news on a player's death from playing the Chinese version.
Zhen Ji was also saddened by the news and was indifferent to the risks on competitive gaming fuel by addiction. No one should die from that while enjoying themselves in peace.
"Let's go get our briefcase from the cargo," Zhao Yun said.
The airport was swarming with passengers. When they reach the cargo aisle, Zhao Yun went to get their briefcase while Zhen Ji looks after the baggage Zhao Yun carries with during their flight. Minutes passed during that and the convey where their briefcase has been transported to reveal the big brown baggage along with another one that's purple.
Zhao Yun reached both of his hands and carried two of them to the surprise of the observers revealing his strength. He's been carrying gallons of water during his exercises all year.
Zhen Ji was checking her cell for an incoming message from Cai Wenji about their story script on the latest Dynasty Warriors game including their informal clothes. She checked the Dynasty Warriors 9 website to see Zhao Yun's informal clothes.
Her reaction was a plausible one, "He can dress scholarly, but alas it's Dynasty Warriors."
Zhao Yun approaches her with their luggage while she's viewing the webpage on her cell. Pretending to be interest in what she's seeing, he spoke, "Anything thing that has to do with me could be more of the same old same old."
"Honestly, there's more about you than just your spear," Zhen Ji sighed.
"My spear or your legs, which is deadlier?" Zhao Yun gave her the purple briefcase while she's looking.
"I can use ki to make my kicks stronger than Zhu Rong and Shangxiang, but your spear is faster. They've made me slower than I was on the previous games Zilong. By the way, does this attire look appropriate to you?" Zhen Ji showed him his informal wear on the upcoming game.
At first, he's envious to see his informal clothes, since he barely take his armor off in lores. Knights of Valour was the game where he fights on informal wear throughout the series till the reboot. However, upon scanning the costume design….
"Wait a minute, this is something Wong Fei Hung would wear. Since I met him during the King of Glory promotion. Why would a Qing Dynasty design be in 3rd century?" Zhao Yun studied the attire hardly.
"Hey, I'm the one dressed out of place from Sino period. My oldest costume is a hermitage to Thai and Cambodia royalty," Zhen Ji pouted.
Zhao Yun was unsure if he's ok with the informal clothes or not. The design is too modern to be natural in a period a thousand years ago.
"Even Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are dressed accurately…." Zhao Yun sighed.
Zhen Ji clicked to Cao Pi's profile and showed his informal wear. She pretend not to read all of Zihuan's bio as it's cringy to read. However, Zilong stopped to read the bio of the Emperor of China himself.
"Wisdom of the next generation…" Zhao Yun mumbled loudly.
"It's all gibberish! He should be called The Greatest Asshole in Wei!" Zhen Ji gritted her teeth angrily.
He continues reading the rest of Cao Pi's bio looking even more grim by the description. Condescending he'd be, but compare to himself, Cao Pi was suppose to be The Chosen One. He checked his own bio to compare it with Cao Pi's.
"My bio is very short. Just like how Chen Shou had wrote my bio despite growing up when Zhuge Liang was still alive," Zhao Yun frowned.
"Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei's are slightly more detailed than yours," Zhen Ji said.
Zhao Yun showed a look of disinterest, "It's no surprise, thus they're the ones that lead the original novel. Sima Yi and Cao Cao are their antagonists."
"Ma Chao has a longer bio," Zhen Ji added.
"He's Ma Teng's son. His connections to the Qiang and Xianbei, along with Han Shui made him well known. I'm just some ordinary joe," Zhao Yun grunted.
"I can hardly like this guy for who he did to Wang Yi, Zilong," Zhen Ji gave another look at Ma Chao's bio disgusted.
"But, everyone felt bad for him losing his father and brothers unjustly," Zhao Yun uttered.
"Ugh…even Cao Hong can get away with being a scumbag in history because he's relate to Cao Cao," Zhen Ji switched to Xin Xianying's bio.
They see Xin Xianying's bio for the first time. She is the new Jin character, deserving for her debut in the main series after appearing in Musou Blast. Zhen Ji is happily satisfied with her add.
"She's Xin Pi's daughter and her father is someone I disregard," Zhao Yun crossed his arms showing a stoic pose.
"Hehehe, she's nothing like her father," Zhen Ji cooled.
Zhen Ji sounded like she got a girl to mentor in the games now. But, Zhao Yun still felt an animosity over Xin Pi's name mentioned in Xin Xianying's bio. He thought about the people he respected and the ones he had no regard for. Now he's trying to let bygones be bygones with Yuan Shao.
"We ought to get back into the Koei Building and prepare for the new game. I hope to heaven I'm not getting anymore hate than I had since being the posterboy because of the 'Land of Benevolence' storyline," the pair soon took their luggage and prepare to leave the airport.
Without any knowledge of the crowd coming at the airport lobby upon leaving the terminal, fans rushed into their way towards the exit.
"It's Zhao Yun!"
"Zhao Yun!"
"Why isn't Zhao Yun dating Diaochan!?"
"What kind of outfit he's wearing? It's not from Dynasty Warriors"
"Zhen Ji looks so different."
The pair exchanged blinks before they turn to the crowd to assess the situation. Zhao Yun whispered into Zhen Ji's ear.
"I didn't know this becomes a part of being a celebrity…" Zhao Yun whispered unchantically.
"I read from kpop news that this is becoming a trend these days. It's called airport fashion," Zhen Ji explained to him.
"Airport fashion?" Zhao Yun gasped. Fans started taking pictures of the pair while pausing for a couple of minutes.
"We'll change into our Dynasty Warriors costumes when we get back, Zilong. For now, enjoy this part of the fandom as we are wearing our outfits from a different game," Zhen Ji starts moving with her left hand on her hips and walk like a glamorous fashionsta. Her King of Glory attire needed this attention.
"Hey whore, go back to your loser husband! We're here for Zilong!"
"Zhao Yun, please dump her for Diaochan or Ma Yunlu!"
"No, he and Ma Chao should be the OTP."
The shouting and rude comments on his lady had made him feel distraught by this crowd. What's even worse was that they didn't know Zhen Ji was divorced. He followed Zhen Ji from behind struggling to ignore the most profanity remarks.
"This more than I could bear getting hated…" Zhao Yun groaned.
"Their comments don't weight on my real personality, Zilong. Just relax and enjoy this uncharted experience," Zhen Ji smiled.
"I'll enjoy this if they don't harass you with bad comments, Luo," Zhao Yun continued following her through the crowd towards the airport exit.
They soon escape the crowd, not before someone echoed the last remark:
"Go Go Dragon Ranger!"
Zhao Yun turned face behind the front door of the airport entrance. He wonder what on earth was all that nonsense coming from. What has Koei done to him this time?
"I believe that last remark was coming from the trailer where you transform from your informal clothes into your battle armor. It's a shout out to a Japanese TV show Super Sentai," Zhen Ji explained to him.
"…" He didn't say a word during the pause. They continue to reach the bus that arrives from its stop a couple of yards away from the airport. Their destination is to the car rental.
Back inside the airport, a Japanese woman who wore blue shorts and a red tank top was slowly dragging her briefcase across the terminal. She appears bitter coming out of vacation from a very bad day.
"I swear I'll beat her this time. It didn't suit me to play by moba rules, so a one on one old fashion fight by fighting game rules will apply. Hai! I'll show her the true style of Shiranui ninjitsu at the Koei Building!" The Japanese woman continued trailing her way out of the airport alone.
At the Koei Building…
All 5 groups were dressed in their Dynasty Warriors 9 attire except those who were yet to be announced. While everyone costume is different, some people have acquired the same weapon as the other.
This isn't a concern for Shu as they're known to be the spear kingdom. Half the roster wield spears and halberds, except Zhuge Liang, Xu Shu, Liu Bei, Pang Tong, Liu Shan, and Xing Cai.
"This rapier had bore me since my debut. I want my dragon chair back…" Liu Shan frowned.
Xing Cai couldn't continue hearing his whining, "I told you before, you'll get your chair back in the expansion. We're all getting remade by the new battle system! Please pay attention to gameplay details next time! Everyone here already knows about the flow system, so each of us will have an unique flow during the combo phrase."
"But comboing with a chair is awesome! Even Sima Zhao finds that unique in the battlefield. Now I'm just a boring character again," Liu Shan said.
Xing Cai didn't want to hear it no more and listened to the reception from her half brother Bao. He has a new weapon replacing his one handed frail sword. However…
"I don't know about the rest of you, but I rather be a clone of my father than wielding something that doesn't suit my arsenal at all!" Zhang Bao shrugged.
Xu Shu studied the weapon to guest that the person who will become worst character had already been affirmed. That is a very big ball n chain hammer, something Dian Wei could have possession with.
"And this cudgel. Isn't this the most terrible weapon in Dynasty Warriors 6 before I debuted four years ago? The lost of my previous weapon could ruin my character…" Guan Yinping showed her weapon for the latest game.
Guan Suo reminded his sister he had once been a clone of Ling Tong, "I debuted with the nunchunks, but my abilities were weaker than Ling Tong's until I wield sabatons…."
Zhang Bao dropped his new weapon on the floor feeling disappoint with Koei's decision to make him the worst character. Most of his moveset in 8 is gone, same for Yinping. Bao make his argument valid, "If they want to redo the entire system at least make one of us relate to our fathers shared weapon! Why this inconsistent weapon? Am I suppose to be the Dian Wei of Shu now?!"
"I'm with Bao! These kinds of weapons would apply to the Wei guys. Bao and I are legacy characters that can inherit the moves of our fathers," Guan Yinping said as she came next to Zhang Bao.
Zhuge Liang could understand their disappointment(and ignoring the fact that his wife had redone her hair). There could have been better choices to translate their old gameplay style into the new system or to clone them with their fathers. Yinping's double stone frail doesn't take much data to translate into the new system and Bao could have been a pike user until they bring back his flail sword in the expansion.
"I believe they rushed to put the three of you into the game without much effort to transfer the old data from DW 8 Empires into the new gameplay. So the least they compromised was retaining the weapons that were easier to input," Zhuge Liang analyzed.
Pang Tong shrugged, "That's what the assumption of laziness is old friend."
Fa Zheng scoffed at Koei's laziness, "Do we expect the transition to open world be any easier to progress? I'm here till I either get the same weapon as Jia Xu or retain my woven cloth."
Zhang Bao scanned the Shu group upon finding out that Guan Xing isn't here. Will Xing keep his weapon when he gets revealed?
"That leaves only Guan Xing and Fa Zheng now. The game will be complete by then, Shifu. I can't wait till I travel into Wei territory and possibly assassinate the members of the Sima family for the Prime Minister! For benevolence!" Jiang Wei grew excited for the upcoming game since its announcement last spring.
"For Benevolence," Zhuge Liang said as he prepare for another complain of Shu's story direction from Wei Yan.
"Meh…" Wei Yan turned away from the crowd.
An hour later…
Two young men were watching the workers pass them by through the hall. One looks boyish and enthusiastic while the other looked rigid. Their outfits have a green giveaway making them appear as the men from Shu group.
"There's one 1 new character left to be reveal and we're being sidelined by Zhou Cang Bogong…" The boyish man sounded disappointed.
"There's still a chance for the expansion, but let's face it, Wang Ping. Zhou Cang made it because Guan Yu's storyline is getting complete. We're just left overs from an unfavorable period that would make Jiang Wei look bad. Most of the characters in Shu were all relate to the oath brothers and Xiaozhi is Zhuge Liang's rival," Zhang Yi whose style name is Bogong.
Wang Ping hates to admit that Zhou Cang is more preferable new Shu add now. The whole thing was underwhelming since his reveal. What's more, they are surprised to see him become a pretty boy.
"We'll never know what we'll look like in the main games compare to the spin off we debuted. Zhou Cang was supposed to be a hobo right?" Wang Ping frowned.
Zhang Yi grinned and gazed at Wang Ping, "Zijun, we're still historical compare to him."
Wang Ping puts himself into a thinking pose, "Yeah, if it still matters."
They continue observing the workers while standing there looking bored. The female worker waved at the two men smiling. They waved back like they're still working here. When she left, Wang Ping took a deep breath.
Outside the Koei Building, Zhao Yun and Zhen Ji got out of the car after an hour ride from the airport they left earlier. Zhao Yun felt so numb over the crowd of fans at the airport taking pictures of him and making unruly demands.
"Don't fret, Zilong. Every celebrity deals with their crazy fans inappropriate antics because that's fandom," Zhen Ji roll her gaze at Zhao Yun's unemotional demeanor.
"They're always rude to you, because you're my celebrity girlfriend since your divorce," He prepares to head for the front entrance right from the parking.
Zhen Ji shut the car door steadily and catches up with Zhao Yun hasty, "My fans, I mean, my fans from the Koei fandom called you a simpleton and wanted me to have nothing to do with you anymore. I never pay attention those remarks. Nothing is going to make me reconcile with Zihuan as long as they know why I died. They can't pretend to assume that Zihuan and I got into a misunderstanding. Everything about that incident been spinned for centuries just to compromise Zihuan's faults because of my son's prospective."
He turn face to her, "What about reviving your relationship with Yuan Xi?"
"That is a good idea, but Xi had enough pressure over his brothers egos to resume our relationship back to where we left off. There's a very good Chinese fanfic dedicated to Yuan Xi and I. I found about it on google. Anyway, there are more fics of us together based on our livehood at Hebei," Zhen Ji answered.
He remember the fics she showed to him during their King of Glory promotions in China. Some of them were good and there's a few that could have been better if not for the idea of…
"One fic made me abdicate Emperor Xian. I would never do that. If someone were to kill Liu Xie, then my long struggle to regain my clan's honor to the Han is over thus the idea to become an unifer may contrast," Zhao Yun told her.
Zhen Ji reassure his point on being portrayed a ruler in fanfiction, "You value honor and moral piety, above selfishness Zilong. Becoming emperor to the people will have positive reception. I respect you on that a lot."
He chuckled and they're finally at the glass entrance. He opened it for Zhen Ji to enter first and they were inside the Koei Building.
"One more thing, Luo. Being a Han loyalist does not make me a boring character. The problem about how I was written is due to the fact that I'm friends with Liu Bei. My existence gets in the way of Liu Bei's relevance. As long as writers stick to the original ROTK novelization, I will never evolve myself into a deeper character. Kongming, Xuande, and myself have different motivations on saving the Han Dynasty," Zhao Yun stopped walking and saw Wang Ping and Zhang Yi coming ahead of himself and Zhen Ji.
The two of them exchanged uneasiness in front of the older duo. Zhao Yun could see there's a problem since he and Zhen had left out of town for months. Zhen Ji too, could study their facial expression. Whatever it is, could be about the state of the Shu group.
"Big brother, we've been waiting for you to come back for months. Did you know about the 2017 Dynasty Warriors Popularity Poll?" Zhang Yi asked.
Zhao Yun slowly put his hand in front of the younger duo, "First of all, I honestly don't concern myself with the poll. I'm 3rd in the west and 2nd in the eastern poll. However, nothing could change how I feel about the current direction of the Shu storyline. By the way, what had Koei done to me this time? Some crazy fan shouted out 'Dragon Ranger'."
Wang Ping and Zhang Yi both burst into laughter, "Hahah, it's that ridiculous Dynasty Warriors 9 teaser! I know you're getting tired from the exposures on Dynasty Warriors trailers, so Koei decided to give you a Super Sentai shout out just to hype up the game's release next year."
Zhao Yun grunted, "So now they start making asinine ideas on crossing over Three Kingdoms with the Power Rangers/Super Sentai universe."
"Is there anything precedent at Wei group?" Zhen Ji asked the duo.
Wang Ping spoke first, "Hmm, they're still celebrating after Guo Jia became number one in the eastern poll. Cao Xiu, Man Chong, and Xun Yun were added as new characters in Dynasty Warriors 9."
Zhen Ji's expression darkened, "So, one of Zihuan's underlings became official."
Zhang Yi spoke next, "And that's not the last of it. The Wei group became agitated over Sima Yi's exposure in Three Kingdoms media. He gets two TV dramas in one year."
Zhao Yun knew about Sima Yi's drama The Advisor's Alliance, but to have another one with him as a leading role? Zhen Ji was already aware of Cao Pi's inciting over Sima Yi's exposure.
"Wu are having this #MakeWuGreatAgain rally. It's like they take the slogan from Donald Trump that was viral and use it for their campaign to have more Wu based content in Koei," Wang Ping said.
Of course, the Wu group. They've been lacking more exposure on Three Kingdoms media than Wei and Shu because of the novel. Only Zhou Yu could have made this tenure as he was the designate hero of Jiangdong. Zhao Yun respects Zhou Yu a great deal, hopefully things are looking up for Wu now. Sun Shanxiang has at lot more words to express her anger on her character direction Post DW 6.
"Zhao Yun! I'm so glad you are finally back!"
The voice came from the flank of their position and they turn left to find a japanese blond man coming ahead towards them.
"Azai," Zhao Yun greeted.
"And Lady Zhen is here too! I have wonderful news for the both of you!" Nagamasa scrolled the four people staring at him.
Wang Ping and Zhang Yi decided it's time they head back after standing in the main lobby for hours. Still there's one more thing in Wang Ping's mind to tell the returning Shu group leader.
"Pardon us as we're about to head back to the Shu Group despite not making the cut in 9. Zilong, Zhuge Liang is taking over your place as acting group leader, but Wei Yan and Fa Zheng have no acknowledgement of him taking your place," Wang Ping informed.
Zhao Yun felt this coming, "Tell Kongming that I have return. Let Wenchang and Xiaozhi know too."
They both nodded and start walking directly to where the Shu group resides. With them gone, Nagamasa resume his conversation.
"Since Oichi and I got remarried, we've been going over with the legacy of the Azai clan from Chacha. Her sisters remain as spouses to the Kyogoku and Tokugawa families, so that leaves Chacha as the sole daughter in our family. Her son is a Toyotomi heir whom Oichi disregards as our grandson, however Chacha plead to her mother to conceive a son," Nagamasa told the story of what went on with Nagamasa and Oichi after getting remarried.
"So what happened to Oichi?" Zhen Ji asked.
"After months of talking and granting our eldest daughter's request. Oichi is finally pregnant with my legitimate heir!" Nagamasa prayed to the heavens in thanking him in this revival.
Zhao Yun joined him in congratulating, "I bless the two of you on this wonderful news my friend. Have you talked to the others from the Samurai Warriors and Nobunaga's Ambition side?"
"Chacha told Yukimura about it, so I expect Genjuro to spread the news to Kenshin and Shingen. This is a miracle, Zilong!" Nagamasa smiled.
"Getting children when you're pass 40 plus….technically, Zilong and I were over a thousand years old compare to Nagamasas and Oichi, so that makes them over five hundred years old. Sigh…if only Zilong proposed to me right now," Zhen Ji thought sadly. She's happy for Oichi and Nagamasa, yet sad that she's still a divorcee.
Zhen Ji did not know that Ma Yunlu had been eavesdropping during her return. She lurks from the hallway to the right unnoticed by the group. Blind hatred grew out of the woman like hellfire.
To be continue
A/N: I want to go back to Warlord's of Later Han. I want to go back to my Tekken fic. But, writing Koei Building skit is too much fun for me.
Zhao Yun takes a look at the Musou All Stars gamecapture of him with Toukiden's Oka romantically hugging him. To his impression, he's indifferent by the ship and the lady appears to resemble someone uncomfortably obvious. Her face is a dead give away.
Zhen Ji: She looks like Tamano without the wicked gaze and younger.
Zhao Yun: Is this a 'thing' now?
Zhen Ji: Tumblr and Deviant Art are now shipteasing.
Oka: I never thought I'd look like Tamano...
Tamano:...
Zhao Yun: It's definitely going to be a 'thing'.
Oka: All fluff aside, we're just two professionals saving a dying world in that game. Forgive me, Zilong.
