The group ate at another small but excellent restaurant before they made their way back to they were staying at. Sue swindled a dress out of the whole thing to wear to the party tomorrow night, and there was a few more encounters with other cultivators… but none of them were assassins. Kat didn't need to do anything because it seemed that Bodeir was always the… higher Rank? Kat didn't really understand how the system they all seemed to operate under worked.
Still, after seeing it happen a few times, where Bodeir and another guy would face off. Stare for a while, until conceding that Bodeir was… somehow a 'senior brother' and then he'd offer advice that almost certainly meant nothing. It was always the same template… though Kat was a little shocked when she saw it play out the same way upon meeting a female cultivator.
