Ch-45

My eyes fluttered open.Huff, " huff," I panted to the blurry surroundings welcoming me.

"Where...am I?" I muttered, It felt like someone woke me up from a fever dream.

My eyes couldn't look four feet away from me; I wasn't panicking, but I could feel the soreness in my body... 'I wasn't in my peak state, nowhere near it.'.

"Don't worry, love. You are in one of the finest hospitals in the world." I heard a voice from beside me.

Turning towards her, my eyes kept trying to focus. It took me a minute; however, finally, my eyesight was back to normal.

A nurse, wearing a simple white outfit consisting of a coat and a white pencil skirt, seemed professional but a bit weird.

"Who might you be?" I asked, looking at her smiling face.

"Mira." She spoke while checking for my temperature. Her touch felt motherly... however, I did not know my mother in this life... Nor could I remember my previous one.

'Wait, the memory package!' I thought with a sudden jerk.

"Are you feeling okay? Mr. Kagami," she spoke worriedly, "you seemed to have slept for the past two days," she muttered as if talking to herself.

Checking the report and my vitals, she finally calmed down.

"I am okay; don't worry." I spoke and finally pushed myself off the bed.

"You should rest for now, please."

I shook my head at her. "I am a ninja lady; I will be fine." I smiled.

I tried to circulate my chakra, which felt a bit blocked with all the sleeping... It took me a good few seconds.

'Body flicker'

"Huh? Where did he go?" she spoke to herself, looking at the empty chamber.

....

Going to the last place of residence I had in the land, it took me a good few minutes to reach the Gizmo hotels.

'No matter how many times I see it, it's still going to be filled with grandeur.'.

Entering inside, I was greeted by an attendant who recognized me.

"It's Lord Kagami. Please go and mention Lord Gizmo about it." She spoke hurriedly to her phone.

She looked at me hesitantly. "Sir...can you wait a few minutes?"

I had the urge to rush to my room; however, seeing their hopeful faces, I stopped.

It took barely a few minutes before Gizmo was beside me.

Of course the news hadn't just reached him; a certain Uchiha had a boulder of a man standing beside him.

Last but not least, she was there. I had been worried for her safety, so I had left a letter to Mokama to go if she and Shisui are safe.

"Kagami!!" Mokama's loud voice pierced through the silence, his figure enveloping me in a hug.

"Haha haha." He laughed, seeing me struggling under his monstrous strength.

"Kagami, Why did you run away from the hospital?

We were just coming there," Misachi spoke, looking at me.

"I really wanted a shower, you know," I spoke with a slight smirk.

Next to speak was Shisui. "Glad you are okay, Kagami," he spoke and fist-bumped me.

'That's how men show concern,' I thought with a small smile.

Here Misachi had eyes almost glistening with tears, and there was Shisui, content with fist-bumping me.

Gizmo stepped towards him, his face happy.

After all, his biggest competitor just got defeated. "Congratulations, Kagami, you have no idea the help you have given me.".

I smirked at him, "I do, Gizmo. Of course I plan to get just the right amount of reimbursement."

"Haha haha," he laughed, "Ask me for anything, anytime you want.".

"Now Kagami, you have to go to the daimyo palace tonight, all of you in fact," he spoke, pointing at us. "I will be sending you your dresses.".

"Alright," I spoke to him.

The next few hours were just us enjoying the time that we had gotten, resting in your room, talking about our experiences.

"So, like, we were almost cornered, and I am pretty sure stuff would have been bloody, but then Mokama came with such awesome entry," Shisui spoke excitedly.

He looked towards Misachi with pity. A look that I caught.

'Are they hiding something?'.

Looking towards Misachi, I asked, "What are you letting out of?" ...

Seeing their guilty faces, I pressed on, "Speak.".

Misachi was the one who spoke, "We had a master samurai attacking us...there was nothing we could have done." She looked away from me. "So I told Shisui to run."

"So you can give him more time ... are you prepared to die?" I muttered, completing her sentence.

All of them were worriedly looking at Misachi and me. Their gazes alternating.

I thought for a few minutes and spoke, "You did right... I, as a ninja, and you, as a samurai, have an honor to uphold... I get it," she finally eased, "but however...It is my fault for not being there to help."

She took her hand and placed it on top of mine. Her eyes seemed to comfort me.

'I love her...' I had known it for a while...but the chance of her death shook me.

I really, really loved her...

"Stop spoiling the mood, you two lovebirds. She survived, and you sent me..." Mokama gruffly spoke from the side.

knock

knock

"mhmm?"

I left the bed to open the door. 'What?' I was a bit surprised to see the familiar faces.

"Muichiro, Tokichiro, and Sora," I spoke, seeing their smiling faces.

Toki was the first to jump on me. Haha haha, friend, I was nearly worried there when you blacked out.".

The rest of them soon joined in.

thud

Mokama got up with a loud sound, his expression. stoic as he made his way towards them.

I could tell the sweat Muichiro was shedding...

However, Mokama didn't stop for a second. In a moment, he hugged the both of them.

"You little brats... You dare keep a secret like this from your own father..." His voice turned a bit melancholic in the end. "Thank you, Muichiro…"

The child he had grown to love hadn't disappeared; instead, the brother was just looking out for himself.

"Both of you have grown," he spoke with a smile. I could see that single tear coming out of his eyes. "Next time...just tell your father, alright? I wouldn't let anyone lay a scratch on you.".

Both the brother and father were shedding a mountain full of tears by now.

"To think the arrogant Muichiro can cry," I spoke with a smile.

We were all smiling.

.....

The daimyo palace was another structure that I could marvel at for hours on end.

The tall ebony towers, the lighting, which made it look like a thunderbolt thrown by gods.

The inside itself was even more gothic. The place was packed with samurais to boot.

We all had come in our outfit given by Gizmo himself.

Mokama's family was in an all-black tuxedo; Shisui himself had been given a tuxedo in black and red color.

I kept walking. My dark blue tuxedo paired with my white shirt underneath me, I had, of course, left open a few buttons, showing off my well-built chest.

'It isn't much of a flex when everyone has a well-built body.'.

"Everyone here, I spoke to all of them." We had come separately; however, the meeting spot was decided.

"Misachi is left…ah wait, there she is," Muichiro spoke.

Looking at where his eyes were pointing, my jaw was left hanging.

Her light blue hair was paired nicely with a dark blue dress with studded star dust on it.

Her cleavage sat in the open, showing off her ample chest.

Her dress was as if stuck to her very body, showing off her ample curves.

She came up to us, looking at me, "All good?".

"You look beautiful," I spoke. Her cheeks quickly turned rosy at my comment.

We spoke for a few before the daimyo guards called us upon the passage.

Looking towards the main room in the palace, I was shocked to see the huge gold studded in every corner of the place. The daimyo sat in the middle, a middle-aged man with a beard as long as his chest.

Sitting beside him was Mifune, the lord of the land of iron. He smiled seeing me.

"Stand up," the daimyo said, and soon we were off our knees.

"For your exemplary strength in helping against the civil war, all of you have been awarded a token of warriorhood.".

A token of warriorhood was basically a VIP pass in the land. It helped gain respect against the citizens and more or less could be sold for a ton of money.

"Of course, the necessary gold will be delivered to you," he added.

The next to stand up was Mifune, "Of course, as the winner of the land of iron, you have one wish to ask of me.".

He spoke, looking towards my eyes, "Lord Mifune." I spoke with a pause, "Teach me your swordsmanship.".

The statement let out a cacophony of protest among the different nobles.

Mifune's and my eyes locked on each other.

'Just Sakumo isn't enough; I will get it all.'
