Stories
7Character details
Li Shuwen was summoned as a Lancer, but the elder Li Shuwen who has been summoned here represents a different aspect of him. His deadly fist is unclouded by hesitation or doubt. No opponent could survive a battle against him.
He is the sage of the fist, and has reached his mental prime.
Profile 1
Height/Weight: 166cm, 58kg
Origin: History
Region: China
Alignment: Neutral-Evil
Sub-Attribute: Human
Gender: Male
His weight is slightly less than it was in his physical prime.
Profile 2
In contrast to his younger self, this Li Shuwen is a mild-mannered old man. He may use his deadly fist at times, but only when absolutely necessary. This is because he has accepted peace, a state where he suppresses the urge for brutality in a way his young self would never have understood. However, enemies who face him will learn that the deadly skill of his youth is still being honed even to this day.
Profile 3
Though he is summoned as an Assassin, he doesn't kill for a living, and he prefers a fair fight. He finds the life of an assassin does not sit particularly well with him, though he feels no embarrassment or shame. Should Master be in a dangerous situation, however, he will not hesitate to stoop to assassination.
Profile 4
Sphere Boundary (Extreme): A-
A technique that allows him to detect his surroundings and conceal his presence using his qi. Those who have mastered this can unite with the heavens and earth, making it possible for them to fade into nature. In his old age, his technique had evolved further. Even during active combat, he is able to disappear in the blink of an eye.
Intersection of Yin-Yang: B
A switch of human nature. Though he leans more towards yang energies as he aged, his ferocious fangs were never lost, and they can slaughter the enemy by switching to yin in an instant. He has lost none of his ruthlessness.
Profile 5
『Wu Er Da』
Rank: None
NP Type: Anti-Personnel
Range: 1
Maximum Targets: 1
No Second Strike.
Like "Swallow Reversal" and "Shen Qiang Wu Er Da," it is a technique that ascended to the status of a Noble Phantasm for the sheer mastery it represents. It is one of the secret taolu (predetermined movement) techniques said to be a juezhao (ultimate technique), called "Stalking Tiger"
Additional profile
As Lancer Li Shuwen is in his physical prime, fighting against him is one of Assassin Li Shuwen's dearest desires.
Should Assassin Li Shuwen confront him, he cannot guarantee that he would be able to maintain his composure. And even if he was able to compose himself, there is no guarantee his opponent could do the same.
He is therefore quite sure that any encounter with Lancer Li Shuwen will lead to a fight to the death.

53Home (17)
- Bond Level 1
- Leave the battles to me. ...No, actually, leave matters to me ONLY in battle. I may have aged, but I am a man whose only worth is in destroying others.
- Bond Level 2
- Having a good body and not needing to worry about it deteriorating can be both a blessing and a curse. I tend to overdo it. Some logic and strategy must bear human weakness in mind. There are some things that just cannot be done aggressively.
- Bond Level 3
- Hm... I knew you were a peculiar Master, but apparently even more so than I expected. After all, there must be other superior Heroic Spirits around, you know?
- Bond Level 4
- You and I have been together for a long time now. Not only have we trained together day and night, but you've stayed around for tea as well. You may be the first human whom I've fought alongside in battle for this long.
- Bond Level 5
- Shall we head out, Master? Fight enemies and beat them down. Could there be any more trust I can show you than that?
- Bond Level 5 (After Completing Part 2 Chapter 3)
- Served Qin Shi Huang? I did that? Hm. That's an interesting employer, indeed. But no matter how much money somebody offers me now, I have no intention to serve under anyone else but you. Ka ka ka. Master puts themselves into danger so much, I just can't take my eyes off of them.
- Conversation 1
- Shall we head out? Both one's fist and enthusiasm can dull if they're not used often.
- Conversation 2
- When one dies as a retainer, it must be to enable their master to survive. When their master dies, they must follow suit. ...Don't laugh. I'm well aware that it's an old-fashioned way of thinking.
- Conversation 3
- Contracting with you isn't so bad. You truly are a quaint sort, facing an old hand like me with such seriousness.
- Likes
- I have nothing that I like in particular. But if there was something I placed importance on... Hm, I suppose it was my family.
- Dislikes
- What I dislike? Fools who can't see matters for what they are. I'm not talking about complex calculations. I'm talking about the halfwits who cannot even assess the basic principles of things.
- About the Holy Grail
- A Holy Grail that grants wishes... Hm, if such a thing existed, I might want to call forth the young me. It would be a good opportunity to see whether the fist or the spear would prevail.
- Conversation 4
- I cannot believe that I'm able to come face-to-face with my past self.. Being a Servant truly does afford endless mystery. On top of that, we can fight. Who could ask for anything more?
- Conversation 5
- I cannot believe I have a chance to fight against the famous founder of Yanqingquan. Being a Servant has its perks. The fist as fast as light that casts no shadow... Yes, I cannot wait.
- Conversation 6
- My, my. If it isn't Nezha. I shall look upon her with reverence.
- During an Event
- It appears a festival has begun. But hold it, there's no need to be hasty. The main event usually turns up at the end.
- Birthday
- So it's the day of your birth. Hm. Then today's training will be extra rigorous, as a special treat.
Growth (5)
- Level up
- There's still a long way to go.
- Ascension 1
- I no longer work alone, [id 603600_0_G031]so while it may be a pain, I'll be more conscientious of my looks.
- Ascension 2
- Ka ka ka! [id 603600_0_G021]I'm hale and hearty even at my age!
- Ascension 3
- Mastering the arts in my later years... [id 603600_0_G041]That may sound good on paper, [delay 2.6]but I wonder how far this fist of mine will take me...
- Ascension 4
- Splendid. My fist has finally reached the truth. [id 603600_0_G051]You have done well, showing me respect thus far. [id 603600_0_G052]I do not know how much these aged fists will be of help to you, [id 603600_0_G053,603600_0_G054]but I suppose I will continue to train to live up to your expectations.
