Murim Recurve Chapter 230

Re'Kha skid out of the room, rolled on the floor once, and jumped away, watching the hand of the Mirror Sha flash right underneath her. Unlike the other two Sha, it only had a pair of arms to attack. But, it was able to extend them to a considerable range, equivalent to the maximum range of their Pranic Arts.
Moreover, it was a defensive unit, able to absorb their Pranic Art Projections using its mirrors before slamming the same onto its attackers. Moreover, it could use them whenever it pleased, making it all the more deadly.
Four Harmonisers from the Royal Clan arrived right at this time as Re'Kha jumped aside, watching them condense Metal Qi swords immediately. Upon seeing how emission-based attacks were useless against the Mirror Sha, they resorted to close-ranged attacks.
Without any hesitation, the two at the front slashed with their swords, sending the Sha's hand—that intended to attack them—flying away. Another Royal Clan Harmoniser muttered to Re'Kha, "Its mirrors can absorb all emission-based attacks. So, stay away."
"Alright," Re'Kha nodded and distanced herself from the battle, watching two more Harmonisers from the Royal Clan arrive at the scene. In the name of distancing herself, she arrived at the entrance of the room where Ki'Nua stayed, making her actions seem coincidental.
But this way, she was trying to protect Ki'Nua. After all, based on what the Burfuna Ki Clan Elder had said, Ki'Nua was no longer able to act a Harmoniser, for at least a year before she could determine it was safe for her to practice once again.
So at present, Ki'Nua was unable to protect herself. Even if she was still able to use her abilities, all she was capable of was unleashing one Palm Projection. It wouldn't even damage the Mirror Sha. Rather, it could very well be captured in one of its mirrors.

Reinforcements began to arrive at the scene. But as the corridor was rather narrow, it allowed the Mirror Sha a lot of places to hide away from their attacks, causing them to only deal damage to the walls.
Suddenly, it arrived in the corridor and unleashed a total of ten Palm Projections of various elements, prompting everyone to defend hurriedly. The swords of some shattered from the impact while some slid on the floor for a fair distance before stopping.
Using the chance, the Mirror Sha passed through the ground and arrived within the room of Ki'Nua, gazing at the mural as it exhibited a feeling of being relieved. Immediately, it unleashed 10 Palm Projections from its mirrors, destroying the tough auction house walls, making the gap wide enough to bring the mural outside.
Though, the moment it tried to grab the mural, Ki'Nua exited the ground and kicked its face, sending it flying out of the building. She then jumped and landed on the bed, curling at the corner, looking afraid.
The door was broken down as Re'Kha and the group of Royal Clan Harmonisers arrived, looking at the figure of the Mirror Sha outside. They engaged with it immediately while Re'Kha arrived before Ki'Nua, "Are you alright?"
"Y-Yeah," Ki'Nua nodded with a trembling figure. She was currently in her normal form, knowing that Re'Kha had the Wind Qi perception to rely upon. That's why, she took action after the Mirror Sha had destroyed the wall and when Re'Kha had slammed a palm projection on her room's door to shatter it.
Using this chance, she kicked the Mirror Sha out of the room, not giving it the chance to take her mural away. Having observed it over the time period, she realised the mural wasn't as simple as she had thought. After all, it was able to create two Ghost Qi Magic Artifacts from scratch, naturally.

So, it was a priceless treasure to her. She had zero intentions of handing it over to her enemies, foes that she had vowed to hunt down.
"It is dangerous to remain here. We must move away." Re'Kha said, intending to drag Ki'Nua away when the other party shook her head.
"You know how I've always had an interest in these things right?" Ki'Nua said, pointing at the mural, "As I was studying this, I could feel that the effect it exudes can also be helpful to the Sha. Similar to us being able to devise a Pranic Art based on the feeling it radiates, the Sha might also be able to birth a new ability through it. That should probably be why they are targeting it."
"What you said…is that the truth?" One of the Royal Clan Harmonisers said, having hurried over due to the commotion, being part of the reinforcements. Upon hearing her, she looked at Ki'Nua immediately.
"Yes, aunt." Ki'Nua nodded, removing her gown to show her identity.
"Ahh, Ki'Nua," The Royal Clan Harmoniser nodded, "If you are the one saying it, it must have some substance. Head to safety immediately."
She said her piece and immediately rushed out of the room, attacking the Mirror Sha, preventing it from closing in on the mural. Unlike the building that was artificially built, the roads were just on the ground.
And, filled in it was Earth Qi. So, every time the Mirror Sha tried to seep through the ground, it suffered damage from the Earth Qi. Moreover, now that they had determined its goal, they could attack accordingly, aiming around the mural the moment the Mirror Sha disappeared into the ground.
But right at this time, followed by a rumble, the Kite Sha appeared at the scene, coiling its ribbons around the mural, intending to lift it up when ice covered it, causing it to retract the ribbons in hurry.
A mass of Ghost Qi condensed into the air as a hair-raising scream resounded. Followed by the scream, a hand condensed by Ghost Qi smashed right in the centre of the Kite Sha, sending it flying away. And, the moment she laid her eyes on the newly arrived blank space, Re'Kha shuddered as her expression exuded killing intent.
A fourth Sha had appeared at the scene!

The Cosmic Interloper
Synopsis: A cyborg transhuman escapes her corporate indenture and through unfathomably unlikely circumstances, she ends up in a fantasy world of full of unique magic, angry people with sharp implements, and the whole flavor-spectrum of divine entities. Hilarity ensues. Features: - No blue boxes or cultivation, this is not a LitRPG nor about martial arts - Hard-ish Sci-Fi meets hard-ish magic - Generally trying to keep this "rational" Rationale: My primary goal with The Cosmic Interloper is to write something that I myself would enjoy reading. Of course, that’s not the only motivation, but I think it’s the most important one for me to keep in mind, especially as the author. In fact, this whole story came about because after consuming oodles of fiction, I found myself craving a very specific type of story which I couldn’t find many examples of. Then I asked myself, “why not write it myself?” and here we are. Disclaimer: In general, while I’m not writing a comedy, I do intend for this story to be funny and a bit wacky or absurd. That said though, I am using this story as a vehicle to explore some potentially dark topics including (but not limited to) slavery, speciesism/racism, and existential questions of self, consciousness, and identity. Still, I’m going to leave the “traumatizing content” tags off, because I don’t feel that what I’ve written so far (or plan on writing) exceeds the threshold that would be necessary for me to tag it thusly. Also, [insert your favorite boilerplate “views expressed” disclaimer here]. I shouldn’t need to say this, but the main character can be wrong on occasion (gasp!) and the way she views the world is not the objective truth (if such a thing even exists).
