Neverwinter Forest reeling again

Orochi could put the pieces together. The coughing fit wasn’t a joke, he was actually choking. He almost said sorry. Almost. He’d done it once already, and that was for nothing. One apology was all he was getting out of him.

So he didn’t choke for the sake of a joke, he did it because of shock. When he thought about it, he could understand why. He’d probably choke if he was in Hide’s shoes.

The compliment made him grin. I know. Didn’t have to tell him twice. Orochi could gloat about it all night if he wanted.

With enough of my training, you’ll probably be able to beat me. He didn’t mind teaching Hide. It’s better than teaching a couple of dumb kids by a landslide. I mean, you do want me to teach you right?
