The Craftsman 109 Announcement In The Main Hall

Rudra then replyed in a calm tone of voice "Please call for an announcement."

The attendant looked surprised however he quickly recovered and nodded before walking into the back of the announcement hall.

A short while later Daedalus could here the voice of an older man on some sort of voice amplifying device, which of course made him curious. Daedalus looked over to Rudra who seemed to understand and shook his head before saying "Listen to the announcement, I will tell you about it later."

After nodding Daedalus began listening to the voice on the amplifying device, the voice then began speaking saying "Our sect master has called for an announcement! Everyone must immediately arrive at the main hall for the announcement of our sect master's announcement!"

After hearing the announcement rudra told Daedalus to follow him as they left for the main hall.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

After walking a short while Daedalus and Rudra had arrived at the main hall. As they walked in a man stood near the door walked over and said "Sect master, what happened for you to call an announcement?"

Rudra nodded to Daedalus, however he did not say anything, the man looked confused but decided that he would likely find out in a few minutes.

After the small interruption Daedalus and Rudra took their positions, Daedalus standing behind Rudra to the right, and waited for the hall to fill up. After waiting for a few minutes to Daedalus' suprise the hall was filled with all sorts of disciples in different coloured robes.

Rudra nodded and took a step forward, then he began speaking "So as you know, I have called an announcement. My reasoning for calling this announcement is so that I can introduce the sect to my disciple, and my disciple to you!"

With his quick and to the point words Rudra had told them the reasoning of the announcement. Rudra nodded to Daedalus who, understanding his meaning, walked forward. As he stood forward the crowd of disciples quieted down and Daedalus began to introduce himself saying "My name is Daedalus and I have recently become the disciple of the sect master. It is nice to make your acquaintance."

As he had spoken he had made sure to make his voice sound less overbearing than usual and also calm so that he could make a better impression on his allies.

Before anyone could say anything one man stood out, he spoke up saying in a overbearing tone "Why is someone so weak our sect master's disciple!?"

Daedalus then attempted to view his cultivation, what he saw was that other than mana cultivation Daedalus was ahead by miles, with the other guy being in only the first few stages of cultivation. Seeing that Daedalus spoke up and said "I am only weaker than you in mana cultivation. Other than that I am far ahead of you in strength, let alone temperament."

The man immediately went red in the face and said "Oh in that case I want to fight you in a duel for your position!"

Daedalus paused and looked at Rudra for a second before saying "Of course I will fight you! When and where?"
