The head of the Hirata family ordered the soldiers to be a little bit, and finally sent a ninja named Wolf, who had followed Hirata Kuro for several years, to assist Bella in hiring bandits.

Since the bandits fled from the Hirata family three years ago, they have been hiding in a place called the Hidden Forest, where the terrain is dangerous and full of miasma, and the Rei family and the Hirata family have been busy fighting the inner army and have no time to exterminate them.

It is best to hire, and if it is not, Bella and the wolf are responsible for eliminating these hidden dangers.

The requirements for martial arts in this task are quite high.

Bella, a female samurai from a foreign country, led by a taciturn ninja like Wolf, plus two naturalized Japanese Warring States Ashigaru, a group of four people left the Hirata Mansion and went to the main castle of Aina, and then took the mountain path to hire bandits to fight for the Hirata family.

A lot of history has been changed.

The Hirata family still exists, and the old man of the main family, Ashina Isshin, is also alive and well, and as the heir of the Ashina family, Ashina Genichiro's right to speak is a lot worse than in the game.

His prestige is far inferior to that of Edina, if the old man is seriously ill or even dies, then the retainers will naturally rally around the young heir, but now the old man is very strong, and there is no shortage of prestige and force, it seems that it will be no problem to live for another ten years, and the retainers will not have two hearts.

The Hirata family is the most important pillar of the Reeda family, and it is impossible for Ashina to run over and snatch Hirata Kuro, and naturally there will be no conflict with the wolf, and now the wolf is still an elite ninja with sound hands and quick movements.

Merely......

Bella looked closely at his temples, his gray hair loomed, he was obviously a young man, but there was a bit of old age in his face.

She sighed to herself, the wolf seemed to have died once, and then was turned into an immortal body by Jiulang with the power of the dragon.

Feeling her gaze, the wolf continued to walk forward as if nothing had happened.

For him, any Southern Barbarian, no stranger has nothing to do with him, the 'Traveler Senior' does not know his importance, and no one has ever come into contact with him.

"You're called a wolf? Don't have a last name? Bella asked.

The wolf didn't squint and said coolly, "No." ”

"Are there any relatives? Siblings or something? ”

"Nope."

"You're good, why don't you be a samurai?"

“...... I'll only kill. ”

Bella is talking nonsense with the wolf, and Kujiro and Iwata, who are carrying a large box on their backs, are out of business.

At this time, they had already left the sphere of influence of the Hirata family, surrounded by barren mountains and mountains, and the road was extremely difficult to walk, and they were angry when they looked at Bella, who was talking and laughing.

I'm an outsider, and you're an outsider, so why should you command me!? Pretty? Pretty looks have a fart here!

The two completely ignored the wolf's presence and threw the box heavily on the ground, hugging their shoulders to indicate that they wanted to rest.

The wolf's right hand slowly pressed on the hilt of the knife, for him, anyone who hindered his mission could be killed, Bella stopped him from drawing the knife, two unknown people, it was really not worth using force.

"I tell you! Woman! It's not a big deal to be able to fight with two hands, have you ever been on the battlefield? Listen, our brother can cooperate with you to complete the task this time, but ......" Kujiro said the line that the two had discussed, but as soon as he looked up, he met Bella's eyes.

His eyes were milky white, as if he had no pupils, and in a trance, there seemed to be some tentacles on his eyes, ears, mouth and nose, and Kujiro's eyes were full of horror, and he even thought that Bella would turn into some kind of monster and eat his brain in one bite!

"Carry the box on your back and keep walking."

"Yes, yes, yes, my lord!"

Suppressing Iwata with the same fear technique, Bella continued to ramble with the wolf, and the two of them carried the huge box on their backs, not daring to follow without the slightest slackness.

"You're a shrine maiden?" The wolf doesn't talk much, but the angle of looking at the problem is very accurate, of course Bella will not admit it, according to her words, this is a swordsmanship called the Heart Sword, and she is the sword master of the Western country! Only I know this swordsmanship!

The wolf was skeptical, but didn't ask again.

If you are traveling alone, walk the dungeon of the main castle of Ashina, and then jump into a huge deep hole to reach the bottom of Aina, and then walk out to the hidden forest.

The wolf has the ninja's grappling hook, and Bella has a leap of faith, the two of them are definitely fine, but the two tool men behind them can't, once these two people jump, they will fall to their deaths in minutes without discussion.

They could only walk in a large circle on the mountain road, and the group of four set off at dawn, stopping and stopping, and when it was almost three o'clock in the afternoon, they entered a dark cave.

"Be careful, there may be some enemies here." The wolf told the three.

As soon as his words fell, "Bang Bang Bang-" was rudimentary, but the sound of extremely powerful gunfire rang out in the distance, Bella and the wolf dodged, and the two tool men were even more frightened and shrank behind the box.

On both sides of the cave, there were more than a dozen strange men wrapped in white cloth, wearing hats, showing only their eyes and mouths, and holding arquebuses.

The first woman was dressed in a robe, and the musket seemed to have been specially treated, as thick as a bucket, and it hit far and accurately, and one was broken copper and iron, and she felt like a sniper rifle had been used.

"It's the Snake-Eyed Clan!" The wolf shouted loudly, but at this time he did not have a righteous hand, lacked many means of attack, and could only duck in the face of long-range shooting.

Using her eagle vision, Bella took a closer look at these leprosy-like creatures, which were densely wrapped around their bodies.

They are human beings, but their bodies have also been eroded by the power of immortality, and they have become neither human nor ghostly.

Bella recalls memories of her past life.

She knew that the Snake-Eyed Clan, for the Ashina Country, these weirdos dressed like leprosy were all outsiders, and they were all remnants who were not accepted by the state.

Many years ago, at the top of the mountains of Ashina Province, there was a group of priests and shrine maidens who built a gorgeous palace on the top of the mountain, which was called Gennonomiya.

The people who rule the Gennomiya are called the Yukami clan, the men are nobles, and the women are samurai, they are from Izumo, and the god Yukami is the dragon god who rules the Izumo region and rules the wind and rain.

Sakurayu, who came to Japan from the west across the sea, was identified as the god Ukami, and they chased all the way from Izumo to Ashina.

The Kami clan wanted to get more living space, so they went down the river and attacked the country of Reed, but unfortunately, they were defeated and had to retreat to the palace of the source.

After the war, the women who had suffered the atrocities of the war were expelled from their homes, and their descendants who had grown up in the wilderness were the Snake-Eyed Clan, deformed children who had a part of the blood of the Canamians and the Reed Celebrities.

They are not accepted by the country of Reed, and they can't go to the Palace of Origin, so they can only wander in the wilderness, occasionally take on some mercenary tasks, make a little money, and spend the rest of their time here, staying in this area very close to the entrance of the Palace of Origin, hoping that one day, they can be accepted by the Palace of Sources.
