I can assure you that Tadaka was alive after that encounter. As for who he stood with I can not be sure.
Kazuma sipped some tea.
Was this the only incident that you know of that involved Tadaka or were you able to find his trail at a later time?

"Solid information? No. " Shoju replied. "But, we have evidence about others who were at the compound, which makes determining what side Tadaka was on more.... important, now that we can confirm he did survive the battle." Inside, Shoju was grinning madly.
"Toku Kenpachi, a Monkey magistrate returned home days later after the battle to find his family slaughtered. Shinjo Roku, A Unicorn Magistrate was wounded in battle, returned home, and hasn't been heard from since." Shoju's expression grew more stern. "The Scorpion Champion's brother was killed in the battle. The only other survivor, is the new bride of the same champion." Shoju set the teacup down. "While I have no evidence linking Tadaka to anything, his appearance in the City of the Lost before this event, and his disappearance after this event, make one such as myself uneasy." Shoju adjusted his kimono slightly. "I'm probably over reacting, but the news that he is no longer a member of the Phoenix clan troubles me."
Maybe, if this all played out well, Shoju could turn Tadaka into the most wanted man in the empire, leaving himself free to explore the empire wihtout such a large target. Maybe, deflecting fear and doubt on the Phoenix will flush him out. Maybe, it will just give Shoju more cover.

I can assure you that the reason for Tadaka being removed from the Phoenix clan has nothing to do with this battle. I had no idea that the battle had even taken place and I do not know what Tadaka's actions were during the battle. I am sure that Tadaka's actions during the battle were nothing to merit your concern.

I had no idea that the battle had even taken place and I do not know what Tadaka's actions were during the battle. I am sure that Tadaka's actions during the battle were nothing to merit your concern. Shoju thought for a moment. The Champion believed every word he spoke. He could see it in his eyes. Pressing for more information would indeed be poor form at this point. "Your utter belief in Tadaka has reassured me to be sure Kazuma-dono. I appreciate your time on the matter, as I'm sure making time to meet with a lowly witch hunter as myself was not necessarily on your agenda for today." Shoju stood and bowed low. "Thank you and the entire Phoenix clan for your hospitality. You never cease to amaze one such as myself. " Shoju straightened himself out, and removed a small scroll case from his obi. "This is my official account of Tadaka's involvement in the incidents in the Shadowlands. I was unsure what I was going to do with it when you first said that he was no longer a member of the Phoenix, but your words and conviction lead me to believe that you may yet have interest in this." Shoju placed the scroll next to his Tea Cup. "Forgive me for departing so hurriedly, but I fear that Must make my way to Scorpion Lands with haste. I have an item that must make it to the Scorpion Clan, and time is of the essence." Shoju bowed deeply again, and prepared to depart.

Kazuma stood and gave a slight bow.
Thank you for this information, I will go over the details in time. I thank you for bringing me this information and I hope that the rest of your inquiries are more fruitful.
Kazuma motioned to the guards who made a path for Shoju.
