Synopsis of the story so far↓
Takeuchi departed the village after expressing his thankful words, On a journey to find the first Shirasu's Katana…
Then Ichibei ran and followed him…In order to accompany Takeuchi's journey ...
Takeuchi tried to refuse it, but Ichibei began talking about his past ... about the kidnapped of his fiance in the past...

The "Choshu-han(Old Japanese southwestern State)" who I lived was a lot of trade with overseas and lots of foreigners lived…
It was a peaceful relationship for a long time, but some foreigners came and began "disturbing actions"
Among them were arms merchant like Gleeson and some called "bankers"…They are seems to have aimed at further money earning and domination in Japan...
So foreigners seeking profits hired a Choshu-han's samurai and poor foreigners by giving a lot of money and power...
They started to exploitation more and more from the villagers for their own benefit ...
They hit the goldless men…and the woman caught for prostitution purposes…
And they sold some woman abroad…My fiance was also kidnapped at that time…
…I fought back desperately but I could not do anything and she was taken away...In front of me…!!
Ichibei-san! Help!
I lost my fiance…and thought that I do not want to live in that place anymore, I left that place...Anyway I wanted to go to a place far away...
It was like a journey to forget…about her...
Then I lived while hiding that time in "My heart pocket"...for a long time…
"Was not there something more I could do?"I had such a thought…But I was a farmer so I did not have the power to fight…
So I hoped that someone would beat them...But…
They finally expanded their power to this area(East)…!
The New Meiji government…!(※Afterwards=NMG)
"Ah=※Yeah" In the past I did not know…Choshu-han guys was a member of NMG…
NMG is a force of 4-hans samurai and supporter guys gathered together...
Yesterday's guys do not know where they are from…they are different hans, or a samurai of Choshu who joined newly…?
Anyway In the past they had been promoting the control of the southwest area but I heard rumors that they have steadily expanded their influence and recently come to the east...Then they just appeared yesterday…
I thought that the pay for it which had escaped at that time came...
I did not face problems and leave it to others...Their forces were still small at that time…If were able to collect my comrade and stand up against them...their forces might not have expanded so much...
That's why I do not want to away any further ... I thought I should not run away!
Of course I am not asking you to have my grudge cleared up ...
I do not know if guy who kidnapped my fiance in the first place is still in the government...
even if I find that guy, I do not know what to do...
Just…I just do not want to be "indifferent" anymore
Please! Take me with you!
I do not know what I can do...However I do not want to repeat the same mistake as that time...
Anyway I will not disturb you looking for a Katana, and of course I will help you!
"Tanomu!(頼む！)=※Please!" Let me go together!
…Fum…"Wakatta(わかった)=※Okay"
Really!?
Either way we need to get away from this place a bit...I agree with you about that.
Let's act together for a while
Instead, do not forget to become a dangerous journey...
Ah! I know!
Thank you Osamurai-san!
Yoroshiku na!(よろしくな！)=※"Yoroshiku" is a word of greeting used in various scenes
Kochirakoso,Yoroshiku tanomimousu(こちらこそ、宜しく頼み申す)=※A word close to "Likewise" . "tanomimousu"=An old polite way of saying "Please"
So where do you go first?
…Umu…
I have something to do in a certain place…
"Yoika?(よいか？)=※Okay?"
Fuuu～～～!
This is quite a mountain top, is not it?
Ah, Are you still okay? If you are tired,
take a break?
No no I'm fine! Because I am used to this such journey!
"Sumanaina(すまないな)=※Sorry" His house is near here
All right!
By the way why are you looking for the Shirasu's Katana of yesterday's story? Do you also Katana Collector?
No I am not interested in such things…
I just want to "On-gaeshi(恩返し)=※return my gratitude" to my Master…
On-gaeshi?
Yeah, However, if a man named Kaneyama really got a Katana…it might be difficult...
It certainly may be, First of all we do not even know the "looks" of Kanayama…
All I know is that he is in northeast
First we have to collect Kaneyama's information
…tto, That is his house
"Areka?(あれか？)=※Is that?"
Wow It's really on the top of the mountain~
Ah, He seems to be unable to concentrate on "his work" unless he leaves from lively place
This is the end of the chapter10!
Please look forward to the next chapter!
Thank you for reading!
Arigatou gozaimashita!
