System
This is a Cloud Knight's standard-issue Devastator Glaive. There's a cold glint on the spine of the blade sometimes. You get the feeling that it could cut steel like butter.
System
The blade leaned against the corner alone, like a once-majestic warrior curled up in a dusty corner begging for alms and looking piteous.
System
Who, when, and why was such a weapon abandoned?
Options
(Pick it up and play around with it)
(Forget about it)
System
You've seen enough Cloud Knights brandishing their Devastator Glaives around, so you hold the handle and swing it around with ease.
System
There's no swishing sound, just that of metal clanging onto the ground.
System
The weapon is longer than your height. You mull it over for a second before deciding to spare yourself.
???
M—My blade!
System
A man appears behind you, wearing a pained expression, but something in his expression betrays a sense of practice.
Unfamiliar Man
My heirloom sword! How could you damage it like this!? P—Pay me back!
System
Oh, there it comes! Every time I go off-world, I'll feel like it's a waste of time if I can't find any street cheats and experience a little about the dark side of humanity.
System
The man grows serious, as if angered by your indifferent expression.
Unfamiliar Man
{F#Girl}{M#Boy}, do you realize how much effort goes into crafting one of these Devastator Glaives for the Cloud Knights?
System
Then he spouted industrial jargon such as "propulsion weapon" and "monomolecular blade," filling the surrounding street with a hint of academia.
Unfamiliar Man
So how are you gonna pay me back, then?

Your blade? Call it, and see if it answers you.
What is this blade made of, anyway? Ceramic? It's so fragile.
Enough, how much do you want?
Unfamiliar Man
You rascal! This sword is engraved with my ancestor's name on it — the character Quan, meaning wellspring. This should prove that it is beyond a doubt, my family heirloom!
Options
Why have you engraved a character on my sword?
That's right, I myself engraved the character Quan on it.
Unfamiliar Man
...
System
Dumbstruck by your righteous statement, the man remains speechless for a moment.
Unfamiliar Man
Don't get smart with me, {F#missy}{M#scoundrel}! Seems like I'll have to teach you a little lesson here that you won't soon forget.
System
You just stand there in silence, looking on. The man's face turns blue and then white, as if sizing you up.
System
Finally, the stranger backs off and disappears into the streets.
Unfamiliar Man
I can see you must be new around here, Outworlder, so a little history lesson. A long-life species possession like this has a history of at least eight hundred years!
Unfamiliar Man
To you, it may look like any ordinary blade. But in our eyes, it's a cultural relic that's broken enemy lines. It fought through centuries of vicissitudes, slain the Abominations of Abundance, as well as many a valiant enemy. Who could ever imagine its noble fate being in the hands of such an ignorant little pipsqueak!
Unfamiliar Man
C'mon, I'm in a hurry... How much can you pay in damages?
Options
Let's ask the Cloud Knights...
How can such a precious relic just be left on the street like this?
Unfamiliar Man

System
Your straight-to-the-point remarks shocked the man, rendering him speechless for a moment.

You just stand there in silence, looking on. The man's face turns blue and then white, as if realizing the mistake in what he'd just said.
System
Finally, the stranger backs off and disappears into the streets.
Unfamiliar Man
...Aren't you even going to fight me a couple of times? Here I am, expecting you to come back at me with something.
Options
Nothing, really — it's just money.
Quit dawdling! I'm in a hurry.
System
The man didn't expect everything to have gone so smoothly. He frowns and spreads open his palms.
Unfamiliar Man
500 credits!
Options
Take it. Just quit doing this.
No, 250! That's my price!
Unfamiliar Man
Th—Thank you, {F#milady}{M#milord}!
Unfamiliar Man
*clench teeth* 250 it is!
System
He looks at you incredulously, before taking the money and scarpering off around the corner.

This man's voice seems very familiar to you. Where have you heard it before?

There you are, punk!

Man Looking for Trouble
H—Have we met before?
System
He tried his best to recall, as though he were a beggar scraping out the last coins from his empty wallet.
Man Looking for Trouble
Every action must be held accountable, yes, but I'm afraid I've lost count of the number of people I've run this scam on...

Didn't I give you some money so you could turn over a new leaf?
Man Looking for Trouble
Wuh?
System
He racks his brains once again, and eventually comes up with a solution after what seems like ages.
Man Looking for Trouble
You know what they say, every farewell is just an eventual reunion. At the time I was thinking, I've never met anyone in my whole career, who's given up money to me so easily. Surely this young {F#lady}{M#man} must be either wealthy or foolish...
Man Looking for Trouble
Turn over a new leaf... Is that what that means? All I've got is a couple of hundred measly credits. What's that good for? You should've at least given me some ten-grand start-up fund, no?
Man Looking for Trouble
How about this, then — I got caught by the Realm-Keeping Commission. If you help post my bail and help me out a little, you can be my boss.
Man Looking for Trouble
Don't look at me like that. I can do anything! Pickpocketing, runnin' scams, backing up the boss... I'm the best flunky around.
Man Looking for Trouble
No, don't go...
Options
That's okay, I didn't get scammed anyway.
I've been scammed.

Are you the victim? State your name, occupation, and amount in losses.
System
Please recount for me your entire experience of getting scammed in the street.
Jingyan
You must be the victim. This guy used the old "Family Treasure Sword" scam to trick Outworlders all the time. The victims are unfamiliar with Xianzhou history, and so are easily tricked.
Jingyan
What then was the amount lost?
