Murim Recurve Chapter 295

Eventually, all the Elemental Clan Heads welcomed the group, leading them into the Burkurel Ju Clan as they showed them to the various places, introducing them to one another. Immediately, before the Erki vanished, five groups of Harmonisers, eight per each were split and sent off to the five Settlements under the Burkurel Ju Clan.
At present, a team of two Harmonisers from the Royal Clan were managing each Settlement, keeping things in order while the ruling party of the Settlements was absent. Once the group arrived there, they would be taught everything of necessity by the Royal Clan Harmonisers for a month before they would leave.
After that, they would visit once every month and teach them things.
In the Burkurel Ju Clan, the City Lord explained to the man who took up the mantle of being the Burkurel Ju Clan's Head, explaining how an Elemental Clan was structured, the things they have to keep note of, the taxes they have to collect, the things to take notice in the Clan, the tax they have to pay to the city, etc.
Finally, he spoke, "We have been using the Ju Clan's slot of the Portal to Earth for the past month. Once you have stabilised yourselves, we will hand it over to you."
"Thank you," The Ju Clan Head cupped his fist in response, accompanying the Clan Head as they roamed through the entire Ju Clan's estate. It was already morning by the time they were done, showing the sheer scale of the place.
Almost all the Harmonisers were dead tired by this point. As for the Ju Clan Head, his head spun as he felt difficulty in wrapping his head around the vast property he had to manage. All he had worried about in his life was staying alive and managing his finances enough to keep his family alive.

And now, his responsibility was expanded beyond proportions. At the start, he was happy that all his family members had been initiated into Harmonisers and was overjoyed when his children turned out to have significant talents. But now, he started to worry.
Noticing his worry, the City Lord patted his shoulder, "I know it must be difficult for you to suddenly obtain so much wealth and power. But, just hang in there, and don't let it get to your head. As long as you don't do anything beyond what the Imperial Laws state, you will do well."
"City Lord, I'll be honest with you." He sighed and scratched his head, "I have no idea if I would be able to protect this wealth."
He didn't state it explicitly but the City Lord understood. Smiling, he said, "You don't have to worry about that. At present, we treat this as an initial period where you all will adjust to your new livelihoods and gather your bearings. And, only after you have settled will the Elemental Clans start their politics against your Ju Clan. And when they do, they will inform you with a letter first. I have ordered them to stay put until them."
He smiled, "So, until then, for any problem you face, you can approach us and understand your situation better. After all, from today onwards, the Burkurel Ju Clan is yours to manage. The actual ones in power are still the Elders of your Clan, and they would guide you through everything. Just be open to any suggestions they give and you'll fare well enough."
"My Burkurel Ju Clan…" The Burkurel Ju Clan head muttered before he remembered something, sighing as he spoke, "Right, from today onwards, my name is Burkurel Ju'Rhi."
"Indeed, as you say." The City Lord cupped his fists and turned around, "Till next time."

"Thank you for your help," Ju'Rhi bowed. Seeing him, the rest of his Clansmen bowed as he spoke, "We were confused and afraid. But no matter what, we express our gratitude for extending a welcoming hand. I, Burkurel Ju'Rhi would do my absolute best to protect Burkurel City as the Burkurel Ju Clan."
"Once you have settled, we'll pay a visit sometime around next month." All the Elemental Clan Heads spoke in unison before everyone began to leave, boarding their carriages to head back to their respective Clans.
As Ju'Rhi looked at their figures, he couldn't help but mutter, "All of them are really…cool and dignified."
"You too will become like them one day," The Burkurel Ju Clan's head Elder appeared beside him, startling him for a moment.
Ju'Rhi made a deep bow, "I hope I can live up to your expectations."
"Just don't do anything that can get yourself killed." The head Elder sighed, "That's my only expectation. As for the rest, I'll train you plenty enough that you can call yourself the Burkurel Ju Clan Head without feeling ashamed in front of others."
…
Seated in the carriage, Re'Kha felt tired, wishing to sleep. Her siblings were no better either. During the entire night, they were bugged by a lot of the Ju Clansmen. It was because each of them had peerless appearances, attracting the attention of a lot.
As they had to keep up appearances without causing the other party to feel insulted, it exhausted them greatly. Normally, it wouldn't have been too troubling as they could still sleep later. But now, it was already time for them to head to their missions.
"I want to sleep." Re'Gra fanned himself, behaving like he was about to die from overworking. He was an inherently lazy person, so having stayed awake overnight already taxed him too much. And now that he had to head out to complete a mission, he was burdened and exhausted by the work pressure.
"We have nearby locations. So, we can take turns to rest once we get there." Re'Kha said.
"Why can't we rest during our journey…" Re'Gra had just begun to speak when he remembered their destination, frowning, "There are no roads, so the carriage cannot even head there. We would even have to leave the horses after a certain part of the journey. Argh, dammit, I don't want to leave."
He then hugged the thigh of Re'Kha dramatically, "Oh my gracious mother lord, you already have seven, please take one more and save this pitiful soul."

Fallen
Hundreds of years ago, the servant god Elsyn declared that they would destroy humanity entirely, explaining it as their duty as humanity’s peacekeeper. When the gods saw it fit to send someone to oppose the fallen servant, Iztris—the gods’ own servant and follower—visits Cheryn. Iztris requests the aid of Alyson and Jacob, the oldest two heirs of Cheryn and the only ones given the gods’ offer of the ‘assurance of victory,’ and the heirs agree. There will come a time when humanity does fall—but none of them would allow that to happen by the hands of a being just as flawed as mortals. I recommend reading the story by volume, instead of by the order the chapters were posted. This story was beta read by Mad Sadie. Many thanks! Please note that some characters use different pronouns depending on the chapter’s view and the speaker. Iztris, for example, is referred to with neutral pronouns by Elsyn (in most cases) and themself, and after being introduced as such they are referred to with male pronouns by Alyson and Jacob.
