...Season 3: Chapter 05. Yoshimura Clan...
The arrival of Tomoe's father and brother was greeted by the villagers beside the village entrance gate. One of them, Jin also stood there watching a large bearded man in complete Shogun's clothes sitting on his horse who was returning the citizens' welcome with a smile.
And, while passing through Jin. The bearded man looked at Jin sharply. Jin realized that however, he was not angry but rather bowed his body for a moment and returned to his original position.
Seeing Jin's hospitality, the bearded man lowered his head.
In addition to the bearded man, there was also a man who was not far of his age with Tomoe. He was wearing Shogun's full outfit and looked at Jin.
Jin guessed that he was the older brother of Tomoe who fought with his father so Jin lowered his head as well.
Meanwhile, Tomoe waited and welcomed her family in front of the house.
After the reception, all residents do their own activities. Jin also returned to his home.
Moments later, Tomoe arrives with her older brother.
"Jin, are you busy?" greet Tomoe.
Jin who was laying down himself suddenly woke up and approached Tomoe.
"No Tomoe. What's up?" greet Jin.
"Jin introduce, this is my second brother Shiroi Yoshimura" Tomoe said, introducing her older brother.
Shiroi bowed and introduced himself, "I am Shiroi Yoshimura. Greetings!"
Looking at Shiroi, Jin also bent his body and introduced himself, "I'm Jin Kazuma."
Shiroi who heard that was shocked and returned his posture, "Could it be that you are from the Kazuma clan?"
"No, that's my name" replied evasive Jin.
Tomoe who saw that, she turned her head towards her older brother, "Sister Shiroi, is there a Kazuma Clan?"
Shiroi folded his hands, "A few years ago, the Kazuma clan was a prosperous clan however, ever since the rise of the Demon Lord. A group of demons attacked the city and slaughtered all members of the Kazuma family and all its people then, the Demon Lord made a tall labyrinth to soar into the sky to make it the main headquarters" Shiroi replied.
"Then, where's the Kazuma clan area?" ask Jin.
"On the island of Roushiki, the southern tip of the continent" Shiroi replied. Then, he shifted the subject, "Jin, let's forget about it! there's something more important!" said Shiroi while holding Jin's right shoulder with a sharp look.
"What's up, Brother Shiroi?" asked Jin who was staring seriously.
"Dad wants to meet and tonight we celebrate the success of eradicating the demon nest" Shiroi said with a big smile.
Jin nodded his head, "Okay, brother," replied Jin who also smiled.
Evening arrived, all the citizens and soldiers gathered in the middle of the village were celebrating their victory to eradicate the demon lair despite it being a small achievement however, it was a small one, the struggle and sacrifice of the fallen soldiers must be respected that is the principle of the Yoshimura clan.
Jin who heard that reminded him of his adoptive father, Shin Maou. Therefore, Jin was also present at the event.
After a while, Tomoe's father gave her a hand code to pause.
"Everyone please pay attention!" exclaim his father Tomoe.
Her father Tomoe got up from the chair and stood facing the villagers including Jin.
"I have heard that there is a young foreigner who willingly sacrificed his life for the villagers" Tomoe said.
For a moment, Tomoe's father said that all the views were on Jin. So did Tomoe and Shiroi who were sitting next to their father.
"Bold young man, go ahead!" exclaim his father Tomoe.
Then, move forward. Upon arrival near her father Tomoe, Jin kneels one leg facing her.
"Your master is overreacting. I only help people in need. Again, shouldn't every human being help each other!" answer Jin.
Hearing that, Tomoe's father laughed happily. "Hahaha .. interesting! What's yourname?"
"I'm Jin Kazuma, sir," Jin replied.
Hearing that, Tomoe's father was surprised to hear Jin's name, "Kazuma? aren't you the last person still alive in the Kazuma clan?"
"No, Mister. This is indeed my name and I myself am not a descendant of the Kazuma Clan," Jin replied.
Her father Tomoe did not believe Jin's words, and she turned to Tomoe and Shiroi. They also nodded their heads. That made his father even more confused, but he decided to ignore his curiosity.
"All right, it's up to you. Whatever it is, I want you to join my army and because of the testimony from many people about your fight against the four demon wolf and demon Bear then, I will give the rank of Shogun level three under the command of Daimyo Sagara Yoshimura of the Yoshimura clan. Are you ready?" ask Sagara.
"I thank you for your offer, but I'm sorry, Mr. Daimyo Yoshimura. I can't accept it" Jin replied.
"Oh, so. What's your excuse?" ask Sagara.
"The reason is, I am not a human being from this world and come from another world therefore, I am looking for a way to return to my world. That's why I can't accept it. I'm sorry" replied Jin who lowered his head.
Hearing that, Sagara changed his expression. "Already expected, it's only fitting that you can defeat some demons by yourself. All right, how about we tie up brother? Although, the Kazuma Clan is extinct, you can continue the spirit of struggle" said Sagara.
"Alright gladly," replied Jin.
After that, Jin and Sagara exchanged sake with drops of blood. Then, break each other's sake bowls.
"With this, the Yoshimura Clan and the Kazuma Clan have tied the brothers! Let's continue the party!" sagara Yoshimura.
"God!" cheers of the citizens.
Not long after, one of the soldiers ran to Sagara.
"Commander!" exclaim warrior.
Looking at the soldier, the party paused for a moment and the soldier knelt one foot before Sagara.
"Mr Daimyo! the emissary from the emperor is coming!" said soldier.
"What?!" answer Sagara.
Sagara who heard that suddenly got up from his chair and went to meet the messenger. Tomoe and Shiroi followed her as well as Jin.
Upon his arrival, Sagara was given a scroll of the emperor's command from the messenger and at the moment, he read it Sagara's face turned pale.
Tomoe, curious about her father's expression, asked her father.
"Dad, what's wrong?" ask Tomoe.
With an anxious look, Sagara looked at Tomoe, Shiroi and Jin. Then, answerit.
"The big Goblin army has come to Soma beach."
"What?!" surprised Tomoe and Shiroi.
They were surprised to see the location not far from Soma Village.
