Eryndor harbor, much of the destruction still remains but it still is filled with crowds and boats.
Of all the boats and ships that are there, a big ship stands out the most, being loaded with various goods and products, the Mitsunaga crest is engraved on its side and its flags.
The crest has a special design: at its center, a golden stylized sun radiates three distinct rays. Surrounding the sun is a cherry blossom branch in soft pink and white.
Henry: "Woah, and with that we will cross the…eh"
Jack: "Tsukikawa river"
Henry: "Awesome"
Ichiro: "Yeah, right?"
Lenny: "Ichiro, what are the things that are loaded inside the ship?"
Ichiro: "Eh, I think those are…-"
Mrs. Mitsunaga: "Goods that we don't have in the Kagetsu Kingdom, like various spices"
She says, interrupting Ichiro. Mrs. Mitsunaga had just arrived, followed by her five bodyguards and servants who are carrying countless bags on the ship.
Henry: "Mrs. Mitsunaga!"
Mrs. Mitsunaga: "Good to see that you are on time"
Emilia: "Yeah, except that all of them had a hard time waking up"
Mrs. Mitsunaga: "I know that from my brothers"
Emilia and Mrs. Mitsunaga start laughing together, leaving all the boys confused.
Mrs. Mitsunaga: "Alright let us get on the ship before It leaves without us"
She says before getting on to the ship with the group.
The giant ship makes a loud sound, announcing its departure.
All the people and children on the harbor are waving the ship good-bye, wishing it a safe journey.
…
Henry runs to the side of the ship to puking.
Ichiro also goes to the side, viewing the sigh of the gigantic Tsukikawa river, Emilia lies on a lounger, relaxing on it while Lenny and Jack are spending their time inside.
Henry: "You finally are going back to Kagetsu Kingdom"
He says to Ichiro after puking,
Ichiro: "Yeah, but not home, my first stop in my adventure is the Mitsunaga residency"
Henry: "Have you ever been there before?"
Ichiro: "Only once. Its gigantic, much larger than the Taketa residency"
Henry: "Woah"
Ichiro: "Yeah, but Im worried"
Henry: "About Mrs. Mitsunaga?"
Ichiro: "Yeah, but also what's on the residency"
Henry: "What's on the residency?"
Ichiro: "A monster in form of a man"
Henry looks confused,
Henry: "What? A monster in form of a man, is that supposed to be a riddle?"
Ichiro: "Arashi Mitsunaga, the leader of the Mitsunaga private army. His strengh is nearly unmatched and his thirst for blood resembles that of a wild animal. Do not try to mess with him or even try to get his attention, alright?"
Henry: "Is he this scary?"
Ichiro completely turns to Henry, unknowingly getting lowder,
Ichiro: "Did you not listen? He can't be considered human, this man is crazy, he will kill you if he wants to and no one can stop him because of his strengh and his high authority inside of the Mitsunaga clan"
Henry: "Alright, alright, I got it, I will not try pick a fight with Mitsunaga…eh…"
Ichiro: "Arashi Mitsunaga"
Henry: "Arashi Mitsunaga"
Henry smiles at Ichiro, raising his thumb. Ichiro shakes his head in disbelieve, hitting his forehead with his hand.
Ichiro: "Something will go wrong; I can feel it"
He says to himself.
…
Lenny: "Ywou gwotta twaste twat bwig bwo"
Lenny says with a full mouth. Sitting opposing to Jack in the diner, Lenny takes his opportunity to taste as much of the free food as he can.
Normally, the food and drinks would have cost money but everyone in the group received a free-food and drinks ticket from Mrs. Mitsunaga, one of the many gifts they received from her.
Jack: "Don't fill your mouth too much Lenny, you'll choke and don't speak with a full mouth"
Lenny takes a big gulp, emptying his mouth,
Lenny: "Sorry big bro, but I never had free food. Matter of fact, I never went to another country, do you think it will be different than the Empire? It must be, Eryondor had been completely different so the Kingdom will be different too"
Jack: "Calm down Lenny, we will see"
He says in his cool-guy tone,
Lenny: "Oh come on, don't act like you aren't excited"
Jack: "Im not, Im worried of what will await us"
Lenny: "You still don't trust Mrs. Mitsunaga after all her gifts?"
Jack: "Exactly, because of all her gifts I only get more suspicious of her"
…
Emilia lies on the lounger, relaxing and thinking when suddenly someone approaches her,
Mrs. Mitsunaga: "Making yourself comfy, I see"
Emilia startles, falling of the lounger,
Emilia: "Mrs. Mitsunaga? I didn't expect you to come here?"
Mrs. Mitsunaga: "Why? It's the VIP area and on top of that, I own this ship"
Mrs. Mitsunaga laughs,
Everyone in the group received acces to all the VIP areas on the ship, another of many gifts of Mrs. Mitsunaga.
Emilia: "I have to thank you, the VIP area is really a blessing"
Mrs. Mitsunaga: "Really? No problem, I enjoy it too much though"
Emilia: "How can someone enjoy a VIP area too much"
Emilia says jokingly,
Mrs. Mitsunaga: "When you had been living VIP for the past 51 years like me, then you will also loose the excitement of a VIP area"
Emilia: "Sorry but did you say 51 years? You look way younger than that and I mean it"
Mrs. Mitsunaga: "Wow, thank you very much Emilia, you really are the mature one of your group"
Emilia: "I mean, I am the oldest so It's only natural"
Mrs. Mitsunaga: "Oh I know how it is to be the oldest"
Emilia and Mrs. Mitsunaga start laughing together.
…
The short voyage ends, the ship arrives at the other side of Tsukikawa river, Mitsunaga province inside of the Kagetsu Kingdom.
Tsukikawa harbor, a gigantic harbor filled with gigantic ships, all with the Mitsunaga emblen engraved in it. Buildings similar build to those of Eryndor, but the size of the buildings are way larger and not comparable to those in Eryndor.
The distance view of the Tsukikawa harbor leaves its visitor gasp in awe.
The group leaves the ship. At the harbor, there awaits three carriages, operated by fuel motors. One for Mrs. Mitsunaga and her bodyguards, one for the group and one for the servants.
After a while, they leave Tsukikawa harbor and drive towards the hills. Located in the
hills between Tsukikawa harbor and a town called Tsukihana is the Mitsunaga residency,
a gigantic residence which hostels over hundreds of people: servants, private
soldiers and Mitsunaga family members.
The carriages pass the gigantic gate, entering the residency. Everywhere are buildings, build out of wood after traditionally construction instructions. Engraved everywhere on the residency is the Mitsunaga emblem.
Arriving at the front yard, the group leave their carriages.
A muscular man with pretty long, messy hair and a sheathed katana in his hand approaches from the top of the roof of one of the buildings, watching down at them, checking who had arrived.
???: "So, we got visitors"
The man says, with a rough voice.
