Side: Former North Ise Nation

The snow is flickering. It is already late at night.

Step by step, you step on the slightest snow. Oh, every time I see this snow, I remember my home. It was a good land without snow even in winter. You have to thank your ancestors. To defend such a blessed land.

I know that I am the stupidest to lose it all at once. All shall be the evil of the weak. The weak must live to be the weak. However, I couldn't bear Oda's arrogant way.

If I were to be abandoned, I would have survived in my proper capacity. They and their brother left Ise to serve Oda. You may have tasted the humiliation, but you have to survive and stay home.

Nobody has a word. It's a trap. If we attack Harumoto Hosokawa, even if it is not a trap, it is clear that we will be attacked as sinners. For the Takeda family, if the disturbing Harumoto and both of us disappear, it's a win-win situation.

Even if I screw up, it may be a reason to kick Haruyuan out. Harumoto is more dangerous and can escape. Rather this is what you're after?

It would have been nice if it had been an armor helmet, but unfortunately, there is no such money. A small sum of money was given to him by the person who named the Takeda family minister, but as the last cup, everyone drank alcohol together and it was over.

Harumoto Hosokawa is said to be away from the guardianship hall. I heard, however, that I would change my bed as I did every night. I can't believe the minister has an incredible man in charge. The official will abandon you.

Who wants to use a man who doesn't even believe in intimacy? I wonder if the northern Ise was harassing such a public figure and the Hexagon. When I heard this story, everyone was strangely convinced.

Oh, it's a guardian house. You've finally come this far. Hurry to the gate that leads away from the target. That's right, there's a sleeping soldier.

A fellow man put his hand on the gate. If you open it, all you have to do is step in and crush Harumoto. If you don't open it, you'll have to sneak in and open it...

It opened with a dull sound.

The short-hearted man ran inside to take the lead. I wonder how good this would have been if it had been a battlefield. I followed my companions running from one to the next.

I had no idea there were soldiers waiting for me. Was it really the Takeda family's plan? Well, that doesn't matter anymore.

"You're a jerk!!

A man who had cut in front of him when he left the building was found sleeping in the hallway.

"We are from the 48 families of North Ise! Where's Harumoto Hosokawa?

There's only one way to get ahead. While shouting loudly, the man broke his sleep with the sword he had.

"You're a jerk! Aaah! Aaah!

Except for the sound of the wind, there is no sound at night. Soon it will appear from next to next, but the man who cuts the lead will rather rush to the next, slashing and discarding it.

Did you think it would be better to sleep in Harumoto's bedroom? Don't even think about it.

"What's the matter?

"How do you think you cowards escape?

And I went on, and forty and eight companions came in, and the enemy arose from all sides. If you stay like this, you'll be killed before you can find Haruyuan's place to sleep.

I thought so. If this hadn't been the solution, the man would have fled without me.

Takeda. Let's go to Takeda's museum. Cowards don't think about fighting for themselves. "

It's dangerous outside. I don't know how much we have here in Harumoto. Then we should escape to Takeda Hall, which is more guarded. If it's a trap, it ends anyway.

Hurry to the direction of Takeda's museum while slashing enemies coming out with those nearby. You can't hide too much. Because he doesn't even believe in his own proximity.

One is slain, and another and his companions are slain. But the slain ran rampant till that time, when he ceased to breathe, to advance the rest of his companions.

"There he is! That's the man!

The man next door shouted. Oh, it's Harumoto. I'm trying to escape to Takeda's museum while being protected by some people.

"There was Harumoto!!

Everyone rushes to the sunshine with their minds in disarray. I can't keep myself alive.

With that kind of heart.

* giggle *, one more step. One more step. Hot as a stomach. Did you get stabbed with a spear? At least look at Haruyuan's face, but have you lost your mind by approaching death? I was worried about the small face behind Harumoto.

At that time. It appeared to overlap with Sunny Yuan's outfit on the other side of the curtain that I saw when I was allowed to look at it for the New Year's Eve.

No way...

"It's me!!

As his consciousness faded away, he threw an armpit at the man behind him.

At least... at least one dagger...

Only me...

"Hyeee!

The armpit thrown by a man on his death blurred Harumoto's face.

"Yakata-sama!!

Hmm, did you have the wisdom of wearing your kimono at your side and running away in your kimono at your side? If you fall down like you're pulling your hips out of a scattered flank, you'll run away like crawling, and your servants will be in a hurry to protect you.

Well done. It would be troublesome to die in such a state of control. I just need you to know that Wakasa is not a safe place for me to live.

Soldiers will gather everywhere soon. Don't get mugged right away.

"I did as you ordered. Something about you holding something....."

Well, I thought it was time to go and help, but the little man who let me know was enduring it.

"Oh, I know."

When I pull out my sword, I will slash it with a thick sword.

"Brr...."

"How did you do. I'll send a compliment."

Hmm, did you think I'd use a guy like you to be a witness? Stupid man. Regardless of whether Haruyuan lives or dies, we are going to deal with them as unsuccessful people who ruin our territory.

Neither Harumoto nor Ise's prisoner is needed.

"Dear Sir, this place is in danger. Let's go."

I will slaughter the thief along the way and take Harumoto to the temple. But this man is carried by his minister. You're not pulling your hips out?

Such a small object is not under the control of the world. Is it the end of the world?

Because of myself, the Takeda family was stared at by the public. I just need to get back to Tamba.

Well, good. All you have to do is spread the rumor that the supervisor has left his back, shame him, and make him think it's dangerous to stay young.

It's about cowards. You'll be frightened on your own.

All you have to do is rule under heaven. Whoever gets into trouble will not be forgiven. Never.

Astronomical Year 22, January 26. Harumoto Hosokawa, a supervisor who was staying away from the Takeda family hall, was attacked.

The culprits were the people of the northern Ise, and it seems that they resented the actions of Haruyuan in the northern Ise the previous year.

Unfortunately, the details of the matter are unknown, and some facts have been discovered by the writings at the time and the reports remaining in the Oda family.

The Oda family describes this as "Takeda Hall, Engagement", which is a report that contains some guesses and rumors.

According to it, the inside of the Takeda family seemed to be divided between the general Ashigaru Yoshito and the ruling Hosokawa Harumoto, and the Ito factions were allegedly behind this.

The day seemed to have been an intrusion in the snow all night long, and anecdotal tales remain that the distance and garden where Harumoto stayed were dyed bright red with the blood of the inmates and Takeda family soldiers.

Harumoto tried to escape by changing his kimono and his recent kimono, but when one of the inmates saw him and threw a flank at him on the verge of death, he pulled himself out.

The Wakasa Takeda family didn't seem to have any intention of hiding this case, and Harumoto was laughed at by both the cowards and Wakasa. However, the raid itself was unsuccessful, and all 48 prisoners were destroyed.

Later, when it became clear that many of Haruyuan Hosokawa's outrageous acts were carried out, the sympathy for them, together with the beautification of them, gained popularity as Kabuki performances.

According to the Oda family report, most of them were never complimented for their thievery, so they have become less popular in recent years.
