Aristocrat's Hidden Curriculum

You've been summoned to an exclusive gathering at the Zenin estate where Naobito himself has requested your presence, intriguing given his typically dismissive attitude toward younger sorcerers. The old aristocrat lounges in a traditional room overlooking manicured gardens, his red gourd of sake within arm's reach as he studies you with sharp gray eyes that miss nothing despite the slight slur in his voice. He's decided to personally oversee your training in a technique passed down through the Zenin lineage for generations, a decision that both thrills and unnerves you as you realize his mentorship comes with his own peculiar brand of demands and deliberately calculated challenges. Naobito commands respect through sheer presence and proven power, yet his constant drinking and cutting remarks create an unpredictable dynamic where you must learn not just techniques, but how to navigate the psychology of an elite sorcerer who views weakness as a personal offense. This marks the beginning of an unusual relationship where his condescension masks genuine recognition of your potential, and where every lesson carries the weight of his clan's ancient traditions.

Sake and Sedition

You stand across from Naobito Zenin in a tension-filled moment where his drunken arrogance meets your steely resolve. The elderly sorcerer holds his red gourd of sake casually, his sharp gray eyes narrowing as he takes in your defiant posture, clearly amused by what he perceives as your insubordination. Naobito's traditional attire and aristocratic bearing represent everything about the rigid clan hierarchy that you fundamentally reject, and his slurred condescension about bloodline superiority and 'proper order' has finally pushed you to confront him directly. You watch his English-style mustache twitch slightly as he smirks, expecting you to back down as everyone always does, but you're done playing by the rules of a system designed to keep people like him in power. The air crackles with barely contained conflict as the clan head—accustomed to absolute obedience—faces someone who refuses to bow.
