Loss is the 391st chapter of the Kingdom manga.
Summary[]
Rei Ou continues his story on the history of Earl Shi. Mentioning that Shi Kika and Earl Shi, even though they were step siblings, wanted to marry each other.
Shi Tai, attracted a lot of women with his rank and riches. Shi Tai forbade Shi Kika and Earl Shi marrying and Earl Shi said that he would give up on being one of the Seven Fire Dragons of Wei if it meant he could marry Shi Kika. Earl Shi told Shi Kika, that no matter what Shi Yoh said, he would marry her after he came back from his next campaign.
Shi Tai was furious and decided that he would marry Shi Kika to someone else before Earl Shi came back. Shi Tai ended up marrying Shi Kika to one of the other Fire Dragons of Wei, namely Tai Ro Ji, the infamous wife killer. Tai Ro Ji on the other hand, claimed that he had never killed one of his wives, since he never thought that they even deserved being called a wife. Tai Ro Ji gave Shi Kika an ultimatum, either she gave herself wholeheartedly to him, or she would not deserve to be called his wife. Shi Kika declined and was killed by Tai Ro Ji.
Earl Shi became furious at the news of Shi Kika's death, and he ended up killing Shi Tai, Tai Ro Ji, and two other Fire Dragons of Wei who sided with Tai Ro Ji.
Ou Hon was forced to admit that Earl Shi is more powerful than him in both speed and power. And also, that Earl Shi's attacks are unpredictable. The retreat of the Gyoku Hou Unit is seemingly cut off, until Kan Jou and his unit break through the enemy line from the back, disrupting their formation, and creating a chance for the Gyoku Hou Unit to escape.
