Such is way of harem king.
You lose, but you have happy harem.

 

[treave]

This is entirely made up of the safe choices and does nothing to expand the harem.

 

[Elfberserker]

Naturally
For true harem king does not cause wars within his harem nor outside of his harem, because of harem.
For harem king happiness and quality is important, not the sheer size for size tempts civil disorder and backstapping.



Edit: Who I am kidding. Of course the size matters

 

[Nevill]

The votes for Cao'er were probably due to overcompensating for years of neglect more than anything else. I know I want the girl to have more spotlight. It is unfortunate that we've decided to do it now of all times, but then again, when we have a chance to go out with her, it rarely makes sense to do so.

Let's just hope for a creepily cute scene and that she'll be gentler with tentacles once we catch up with Ameretat.

 

[Elfberserker]

Not to mention that Cao'er was first one to formally declared our waifu by Yao Shunsi attempt to get us married.

Yunzi might have been our first tsundere elusive waifu attempt, but Cao'er was first to get in to our harem.

 

[Absinthe]

I'll just lay it out in advance that whatever happens with that arm, speaking with Cao'er did nothing to influence it.

Huh, shouldn't her Immortal Eyes help?

 

[treave]

She's not going to give less than her all in treating the transplant even if you didn't choose to talk to her here. The choice to talk to her literally makes no difference as far as that arm is concerned. That's what I mean.

 

[TOME]

Makes sense. I voted for Cao'er just to mitigate some of those abandonment points.

 

[Absinthe]

Makes sense. Any chance we could pick up an increase to our Herbalism skill?

 

[TOME]

Dude, stop asking. We'll get it when we get it. When was the last time we used that skill and really pushed our limits?

 

[treave]

As I said some pages back, not very likely.

 

[Absinthe]

TOME, that's not the only way to learn. I just figured he might've learned some more things about medicine from the arm transplant and other medical aid he's gotten over the years, and if we're going to spend time with Cao'er, we might as well pick up some lessons too.

Guess it's not happening, though.

 

[treave]

The only new technique is the arm transplant, and that is something beyond Jing's capabilities to grasp anyway. Pushing herbalism up to 7 would take some dedicated practice, like this:

7. Have Cao’er teach you more about herbalism. (Herbalism +1, 2 months)

 

[Absinthe]

Doesn't Cao'er have a herbalism technique from Yao Shunshi that makes it easier to learn? Could we at least pick that up?

 

[treave]

For free? Without any time investment? When the vote to spend most of your training time helping Qilin has already been set?

No, but it's possible as an option over improving your other techniques when/if the choice appears. But do you think enough people are going to vote for a technique that gives +1 or maybe even +2 herbalism, over stuff like Wuxiang Qiankun or Sage Sword Domain, or Vairya's Ultimate Attack (TM)? If so, I can add it in.

 

[Absinthe]

We are investing some time with Cao'er.

As for the technique training option, probably not. That's why I was hoping we could get it separate from those choices. Besides, I wasn't thinking of "immediate +1 herbalism" with the technique but rather that, like the Jueshi Wugong Sword Song, we just see maybe a cap boost for now and might pick up a herbalism skill boost later. Looks like herbalism is a lost cause, I guess?

Christ, Absinthe - whatever, herbalism doesn't matter much when we have Cao'er on team.

Also stop fucking antagonizing treave.

 

[treave]

You are investing time in a single conversation with Cao'er.

 

[Absinthe]

Ah.

 

[a cut of domestic sheep prime]

strikes again

 

[Nevill]

over stuff like Wuxiang Qiankun or Sage Sword Domain

Wait, that's a thing we can develop? I thought it was just... there.

 

[Elfberserker]

So is this Cao'ers strikes back episode

 

[Nevill]

Shenjian Lingyu. (聖劍領域, Domain of the Sagely Sword) The arm of the Sword Saint appears to possess an instinct of its own when wielding a sword. The shaping and manipulation of a keen sword qi comes easily through this arm, even with only a mere branch as your focus.

The ultimate dual-wieldan - we can channel our regular qi through the left arm, and sword qi through the right one. Oh boy.

 

[Akkudakku]

wait wait wait wait, with a mere branch? so we can later cut with our sole hand/fingers? Holy fucks. Unarmed just got some REAL EDGE!

 

[Elfberserker]

So we vote every powerup from on either WQS or Domain of the sagely sword?
Goodnight our own sword tech
