"How could it be the Phoenix Divine Identification Technique? Of all the manuals, why did he have to pick this one… Why!" The Phoenix Race Elder was so frustrated he wanted to spit blood.

Now that an outsider had made a selection, they would have been vexed no matter which manual he picked. If he'd drawn an ordinary one, they might have been able to accept it. But he had drawn the very best one. That was truly enough to make them cough up blood in frustration.
