Luffa was highly impressed with Inuzi’s attack. It had unique properties, one that his scouter didn’t detect as normal expressions of chi. “Weesh woosh?” He asked, flabbergasted. His jaw hung from surprise in the attack. How did she possess such an agile command of energy? It was highly improbable for a soldier! “Who are you, really?” He growled quietly to his companion, out of earshot of the rest of the malcontents, who were sprawled out in an arc of unconsciousness and half-awareness.
The wavering ones who weren’t hit but had seen the masterful display for what it was, and knew they didn’t have the ghost of a chance when dealing with an Elite when his servant was so potent. One of them, a gnarled root of a man whose skin was so world-beaten and hard he looked hammered out of the side of one of those derelict pods, knelt immediately in fealty. All the rest followed his lead.
“It looks like… you scared the shit out of them.” Luffa quipped, sniggering. He floated above them, throwing his arms out and spreading his fingers imperiously. “That’s right, kneel you peons! Kneel before your Lord and master. I expect you to work as my taxmen now. You will gather goods and money for me from Radditsu District, or I will know the reason why. You will eliminate any rivals. Speak with my Seneschal at the Bonefort, and you’ll be supplied with some arm cannons to that end. Got that, you worms?” He gestured an arm to Inuz. “And she is your savior. So you’d best save some of the groveling for her.” He finished with an evil smile.
In the end, he supposed it was a much better outcome than simply slaying them. Now he had a proper slum shaker squad. As he left the hideout, he turned back to Inuz. “Now that we’ve ran my errands, I’d guess it’d be rude not to offer my noble hand for any that you may need doing.” Luffa said, trying to sound cordial. Politeness came hard to him, it always felt fake. In a sense it was, but he did have a certain fondness for this peasant.
