紅鬍子
While on his journey he stumbles upon a village where he meets a farmer that goes by the name of Red Beard. Red Beard takes him on as a helper. He stayed with Red Beard and his wife for about a year learning about farming until the drought hits their village, which causes Red Beard to let Budori go so his journey continues. On a train ride to his next destination, he wakes up in a strange place once again, filled with odd creatures. Here he runs into the stranger that took his sister. He chases after him only to arrive at a tall tower full of strange situations. When he makes it all the way to the top he sees that the stranger had already left the tower and runs back down to find him only to find a poster with this sister on it wearing a ballerina outfit. He is woken up from this dream world and arrives at the city where he searches for the university where Professor Kubo, a scientist that wrote the books that Budori studied while on the farm, teaches.
