“You’re still mad at , sir?” It was already midday, and Yua asked with a mischievous smile. “You still haven’t spoken, and that scares a bit. Don’t worry, I was just pretending to be flirting, nothing serious. I just wanted to get so information from him.”
“Alright, alright.” Finally, Raymund could answer in a calm tone. This ninja woman really ssed up his mind. “I know that.”
Yua blew a kiss to Raymund, making the god sigh again.
“You really like making fun of , don’t you?” Raymund let out a bitter chuckle.
The female ninja shrugged. “Well, I’m not a race driver anymore. I don’t have to maintain an image for the sake of my team and sponsors. I can express myself freely.”
“Good for you.”
Mona sniffed Taka, who was still lying down. When the ninja suddenly opened his eyes, Elise’s pet jumped in surprise.
This ti Taka hastily straightened his body..
“Oh, you’re awake again, handso man?” Yua bowing in front of that man, making her cleavage even more prominent.
“Please, don’t co near ! So kunoichi in my clan dress like you, but still…” Taka looked away and raised his hand, blocking his view from the cleavage. “I’ve lost a lot of blood…. You too, Miss! Please don’t co near !”
Elise, who was approaching the man, stopped her steps.
“So, I heard you’re going to a particular village, Taka-san?” Yua crouched before the man. “What a coincidence, we wanted to go there too.”
Taka raised an eyebrow. “You two also want to check out that naless village?”
“Of course.” Yua flashed a smile. “That village is very mysterious, isn’t it?”
“So…” Taka’s tone started to sound more serious. “How did you know I was going there?”
Yua stood up, looking around with her hands on her hips. “What do you think?”
“Aah, because if I’m inside this area of the forest, it ans I’ll be going to that village.” Taka laughed bitterly. “There is no other purpose.”
“Good, Yua.” Raymund complinted his servant.
The female ninja winked at her master.
Taka looked down and sighed. “You two are a unique pair, for sure. I’ve never seen a kunoichi team up with a western warrior like this. Did you hire her or sothing?”
Yua walked behind Elise, patting her partner’s shoulders. “I have good reasons for recruiting this beautiful lady warrior. She is very reliable.”
“Does your clan approve of this?” Taka asked carefully. “Even collaborating with samurai or other ninjas requires the clan leader’s permission. I’m sure your clan leader won’t accept their subordinates working with westerners. We still don’t know much about them.”
“There is a certain ability that only this lady warrior can do.” Yua continued. “And to be honest, that ability can’t be done by the samurai and ninja in this country… Well, I don’t an to say bad about them.”
“Aah… If my guess is right, you recruited this woman from the west to fight the guards in that village. They are the chosen people. It will be hard to beat them. Sotis, you don’t have to beco stronger to defeat more powerful opponents, but use a fighting thod foreign to them.”
“Keep digging for the information, Yua.” Raymund chuckled. “This shit is getting more interesting.”
Since Taka was still unable to look at her, Yua signaled to her master by forming a circle with her index finger and thumb.
“Well, you’re smart, Taka-san.” Yua crouched near Taka again, making the man flinch slightly. “Sorry, I was testing you with those questions. I just wanted to make sure that you can be our ally. It’s complicated to get other people in my clan to cooperate on this mission.”
Taka shook his head. “No problem. It’s natural for a kunoichi like you to do.”
“I still have one more question, Taka-san.” Yua cleared her throat a little. “The guards in that village are the chosen ones, but why did you go there yourself? Not that I underestimate your abilities, but… You know. I think there are a lot of them. They guard a village, after all.”
“I can’t stand the cruelty that happened there.” Taka gritted his teeth. “rchants who co to our place also supply goods to that village. We have received letters requesting help from that village more than once, but the higher-ups in our clan always turn a blind eye! They have promised the governnt not to disturb that village!”
“Did you bring any of those letters?” Yua asked again.
Taka took out a tattered piece of paper from the folds of his shirt.
“Aah…. This….” Yua held out the paper to Elise. “It’s the sa as the one I showed you, Elise.”
“Just follow the flow of her acting.” Raymund gave the order. “Nod, Elise.”
And Elise nodded, albeit with an unbelievably stiff motion. Fortunately, Taka didn’t see her because he was still looking away.
‘Help us! We’re locked up here for years! We can’t leave at all! The guards were rude and did not hesitate to beat us, even small children and won. The food they provide is also very limited, while they eat well. We are really suffering here!’
“So, your clan also got letters from rchants?” Taka wiped his face. “Then… Ah, sorry, what’s your na again?”
Yua flashed a smile. “I’m Yua. And that beautiful lady is Elise.”
“I’m sure you are just like , Yua-san. You can’t stand it after reading those letters. You want to help whoever is there.”
“I don’t understand how they could do sothing like that to a fellow human.” This ti Yua used a sad tone.
“I know, right?” Taka clenched his fists tightly. “And the governnt’s reasons are not clear either. Why are these people locked up? This is really suspicious.”
Yua opened her mouth slightly when she heard Raymund’s order, but the female ninja still conveyed her master’s question. “But, there’s a possibility that this is a trap, right? You’re a smart person. You should have guessed it.”
“Of course.” Taka nodded. “As a ninja, the first step is to determine whether it’s a trap or not.”
Yua held out her hand. “Let’s work together as fellow clan rebels.”
Taka grinned, then shook the woman’s hand. However, the man was still looking the other way.
