Oh, I have! Well, depends on how you ask that, I guess. What actually matters to me was getting back at the Royal family, and as far as that goes, I've decimated them to the point of where their line is on the edge of extinction.
I really should finish the job, but priorities are important, you know?
[ ish gets you, he's just learned that sometimes revenge is only the second most important thing. ]
[ Blade surprisingly truly does as he happens to say - that is where his involvement in Elio's script supersedes his previous thoughts of revenge.
Unhinged revenge, at that. But he had acknowledged it when he spoke to Dan Heng on the Xianzhou before. It's kind of ironic, considering. ]
And sounds like you did enough damage for a lifetime. Especially for a family that may need to have more of them to properly exert influence. Whether they learned to regret what they did or not, in the end.
[ Emphasis on no guarantee on that. Because people, but he doesn't think it impossible. ]
I'd say they've only gotten worse over time. Desperate people do desperate things, especially for those who've never lived a life without authority or power. But when they die out, I've made sure that they'll be remembered as they should be.

[ he definitely has one hell of a grudge and maybe he should be applauded for putting it to the side, to focus on better things like running a murder circus no. ]
[ A flicker of amusement. He knew that Ish was a grudgewanker.
He could smell the blood in the water. This reminds him vaguely of hierarchy messes on the Xianzhou; even without clear memories he knows it's a mess. Some like that exist only to sink into degradation. He can only chuckle darkly at this, all of this... ]
...Unfortunate for them.
[ Blade picks up the umbrella into his hands once more. ]
Sometimes, in the end, living is punishment enough, after enough tortures. After humiliation upon humiliation. [ ... ] We don't see eye to eye on much. But this, maybe I understand just fine.
...I'll be going for now. You've been helpful.
[ Blade isn't certain to expect it again, but now he has more insight. Which is more than what he expected to have walking into this - the irony, however? Makes him begin to laugh harder as he walks off. A little unhinged, a little crazed...maybe in disbelief. Who can say where this will lead (we know where it will)? ]

Other goals can outweigh personal desires.
