_Master Shinowara's Revelation_
Akimitsu stood before Master Shinowara, the school's revered leader, in a serene chamber filled with ancient artifacts and whispers of the past. Taro presented the scarf, and Master Shinowara's expression transformed from calm contemplation to stunned astonishment.
"Where...did you find this?" Master Shinowara's voice trembled, as if the weight of memories bore down upon him.
"The Crimson Mines," Akimitsu repeated, his eyes locked onto the scarf.
Master Shinowara's gaze drifted into the past, memories flooding back like a tidal wave. "This was...Zakuro Hakura's scarf. A legendary student, 16 years ago. Her disappearance has remained a mystery, a scar on our school's history."
Akimitsu's curiosity piqued, he leaned forward. "Zakuro Hakura? Who was she?"
Master Shinowara's eyes, clouded with nostalgia, sought the window, where cherry blossoms danced in the breeze. "Zakuro was an extraordinary student, gifted in combat and magic. Her potential rivaled the greatest legends. She vanished during a mission, leaving behind only this scarf...and unanswered questions."
Akimitsu's grip on the scarf tightened, determination igniting within. "What happened to her?"
Master Shinowara's expression turned somber, the weight of years bearing down. "We never discovered the truth. Theories abounded, from dark forces to ancient curses. But you, Akimitsu...finding this scarf...may be the key to unraveling Zakuro's mystery."
Akimitsu's resolve hardened. "I'll uncover the truth about Zakuro Hakura."
Master Shinowara nodded, hope flickering in his eyes. "You'll join group Azure, under Taro's leadership. Together, you'll embark on this perilous journey."
Akimitsu bowed deeply. "I won't disappoint."
As Akimitsu rose, Master Shinowara's gaze lingered on him. "Zakuro's legacy is complex, shrouded in mystery. Be cautious, Akimitsu. The truth may be more perilous than you imagine."
Akimitsu's eyes locked onto the scarf, now a symbol of his quest. "I'm prepared."

Kaito eyed Akimitsu's sword. "Ryugun's legacy, huh?"
Mei's gaze softened. "We'll support you, Akimitsu."
Taro's eyes locked onto Akimitsu. "We'll uncover Zakuro's truth together."

"You're no ordinary swordsman," Akimitsu said, awed.
Taro smiled. "And you wield Ryugun's legacy. Let's see if you can keep up."
The duel commenced. Taro's sword sliced through the air, aiming for Akimitsu. Akimitsu countered with Ryugun's sword, their blades clashing in a flurry of steel and sparks.
"Akimitsu, your stance is weak!" Taro shouted, striking.
Akimitsu leapt back, narrowly avoiding the blow. "I won't fall!"
The battle raged on. Akimitsu struggled to block Taro's relentless attacks, Ryugun's sword vibrating with each impact.
"Akimitsu, focus!" Mei urged. "Use your connection to Ryugun's sword!"
Akimitsu's determination surged. He centered himself, channeling Ryugun's energy.
The tide shifted. Akimitsu's strikes landed with precision, Taro stumbling backward.
"You're...improving," Taro panted.
Their swords locked, Akimitsu and Taro exchanged a fierce stare.
"Together, we'll uncover Zakuro's truth," Akimitsu declared.
Taro nodded, respect in his eyes. "You're worthy of Ryugun's legacy, Akimitsu."
The duel concluded, the group applauding.
