Ryunomizu - Nine Elements Family
Chapter 3 Granting From the Village Head

Ryu and his friends have successfully completed the battle against the light blue creature that attacked the water element source of Mizugakure village. After that fierce fight, they returned to the village to inform Village Chief Mizuki about the outcome of the battle.

Village Chief Mizuki had been waiting for them at his residence. His face was filled with relief and gratitude. "Thank you, Ryu and friends. You have saved our village from great danger. We owe you guys so much."

Ryu and his friends saluted Village Chief Mizuki, feeling proud of what they had achieved. Takeshi then asked, "Village Chief, can you tell us more about those light blue creatures and why they attack our water element?"

Mizuki nodded and replied, "The creatures are agents of darkness trying to take over the water element of our village. They are part of a larger threat that threatens the ninja world."

Ryu asks, "This arrow, what does it have to do with the water element and why do they want to take it?"

Mizuki retrieves an arrow that was previously used by one of their enemies. The arrow was made from a beautiful blue crystal and looked extremely strong. "This is the Mizugakure Village Heirloom, an ancient artifact closely connected to our water element. The enemies want to take it to take control of our water element."

Aiko asked, "Why is this heirloom so important?"

Mizuki replied, "This heirloom is a symbol of Mizugakure's strength and existence. It is the source of our water element and should be well maintained. However, the dark forces that wanted to take it must be stopped."

Ryu felt compelled to act. "Village Chief, we are ready to continue our mission to save the world of ninjas. We'll help protect this Village Heirloom and uncover a conspiracy involving other elements."

Mizuki smiled, feeling proud of their assertiveness. "Thank you, Ryu. You are our hope. As a token of appreciation for your sacrifice, I want to give you something."

Mizuki went to the corner of the room and took out three small boxes. He returns with a feisty heart and hands the first box to Ryu. "This is Mizugakure Village Heritage. This will help you better control the water element. It's a symbol of our trust in you."

Ryu opens the box and finds a necklace made of the same blue crystal as the heirloom arrow. The necklace glittered in a soft light. He felt the water element energy flowing through him as he wore the necklace.

Mizuki then gives the second box to Aiko. "Aiko, this is a powerful ancient weapon that can help you better control the fire element. This is the Fire Dragon's Stick."

Aiko opened the box and found a stick made of very hard wood. At the end of the stick was a dragon carving with glowing red eyes. He felt the heat of the fire element flowing through the stick as he grabbed it.

Mizuki then gives the third box to Takeshi. "Takeshi, this is the Giant Land Shield. This will help you better protect yourself and your friends."

Takeshi opened the box and found a very large and powerful shield, made of invincible materials. He felt the serenity of the earth element flowing through him as he raised the shield.

Mizuki smiled seeing their reaction. "You are the future leaders of Mizugakure, and this element will help you on your journey. Don't forget that we're always there to support you."

Ryu and his friends feel very grateful to Village Chief Mizuki for his heirloom and support. They feel increasingly ready to face the great threat that lies ahead.

Ryu spoke carefully, "Village Chief Mizuki, can you tell us the legend or history of Mizugakure? We want to know more about the origins of our village."

Mizuki smiled and sat down in front of them. "Sure, Ryu. The legend of Mizugakure is a story that we have passed down from generation to generation, and it is a story that is important to us. This is a story about the origins of the village and the water element we guard."

Mizuki begins her story, telling the legend of their village:

"In ancient times, when the ninja world was young, the natural elements and clans of those elements coexisted. However, the imbalance began when some clans began to want more power and tried to seize other elements. This led to wars and prolonged tension between the clans."

"Amidst this chaos, there is a woman named Mizuko, who has the power to control the powerful water element. He is respected by everyone in his village for his abilities. Mizuko sees the suffering that is going on in the ninja world and is determined to unite the divided clans."

Mizuki continued, "Mizuko traveled all over the ninja world, visiting villages and carrying a message of peace. He also showed them the power of the water element and how this element could give life and harmony to all beings."

"This "wise woman managed to unite the nine elements of nature and the clans that ruled over her. They form a new village known as Mizugakure, which is set with peace and respect for the elements of nature."

Ryu and his friends listened to this story attentively. They feel inspired by Mizuko's courage and her desire to bring peace to the ninja world.

Mizuki continued, "Mizuko also helped create the Mizugakure Village Heirloom, as I have given you. The heirloom is a symbol of the strength and protection of our village. This is the source of our water element."

Aiko asks, "Does anyone know what happened to Mizuko after she managed to unite the village and the ninja elements?"

Mizuki replied, "Unfortunately, no one knows what happened to Mizuko after she achieved her goal. Some people believe that he sacrificed his life to unite the clans and ninja elements. However, he remains a hero to us and a symbol of wisdom and strength."

Takeshi added, "Legenda Mizuko is truly inspiring. We hope to be the successor to his vision and bring balance back to the ninja world."

Mizuki smiled proudly. "I'm sure you will be able to continue Mizuko's legacy and bring peace to the ninja world. You are our hope, and we will always support you."

They talked for longer with Village Chief Mizuki, who gave some advice and insight into their upcoming trip. After the encounter, they feel increasingly ready to continue their journey and unravel the mystery behind the attacks on ninja elements.

As the sun begins to sink in the western horizon, Ryu and his friends say goodbye to Village Chief Mizuki and exit his residence. They step outside of the village towards their journey which will take them to various other villages in the ninja world.

They feel a strong spirit and determination to save the ninja world from the dangers that threaten it. They will use the village heirlooms that have been given to them and follow in the footsteps of Mizuko, their legendary hero, in achieving their goals.

Ryu and his friends have no idea what will be waiting for them on this journey, but they know that they are not alone. They will continue their journey together, as a strong and united team, ready to face all the obstacles that lie ahead and bring peace back to their land.
