Minami slowly adjusts to life as the daughter of a samurai lord, adapting to this world that feels both foreign and familiar. Her father, Lord Hiroshi, is a man of few words but immense strength and honor, respected by all in their domain. Minami learns that the clan's pride lies in their swordsmanship and their dedication to Bushido—the way of the warrior.
Determined to embrace her new life, Minami joins her family's intense training sessions, surprising everyone with her natural instinct and unwavering focus. She notices how each member of the clan has a unique fighting style and begins to develop her own. During her training, she becomes friends with her younger brother, a mischievous but talented swordsman, who teaches her that there's more to battle than brute strength.
Throughout this chapter, Minami grapples with memories of her past life—flashes of a world without honor or battles, where people fought with words instead of blades. This contrast strengthens her resolve to grow in this life and live without regret.
As her skills sharpen, Minami's father tells her that one day she will have to carry the family's honor outside their lands. For now, she's only beginning, but she's aware that the world beyond their borders holds countless strong warriors. She makes a silent vow: she will travel beyond Japan, testing her strength against the world's finest and gathering allies who share her unbreakable spirit
