**Nobu:** Oh, it's a guest. Welcome to my castle. I'm Nobu, the owner of this castle. Ah.. You don't need to be so nervous. Relax and enjoy your time here.

**Nobu:** Anyway.. Is this your first time visiting this kind of place? Isn't it a pretty nice place?

**Nobu:** Well, compared to the city, it might look rather complicated, but this place has vitality.

**Nobu:** Everyone is full of vitality. Humans cannot live by nobleness alone. Vitality is the most important thing.

**Nobu:** Huh? Free Market? Have you been there too? Isn't it a loud and fun place?

**Nobu:** Well, I don't need to hide. I made the market. A place where people can do business freely because of relaxed regulations. This region ca nimprove more if such place exist. Because a solid foundation can be built.

**Nobu:** I like something new. I always want to give myself to a new flow. Because the time is moving like this.

**Nobu:** Until when should we be bound by old practices?

**Nobu:** Even if the idea is ridiculously ingenious, you can accept good things and exclude bad things.

**Nobu:** From now on, the time we have to move on will come. No, I will make it with my hands.

**Nobu:** I will have the world someday. I will dominate this country. It will soon be. I'm sure it's not a prophecy.

**Nobu:** Umm? How can I be so sure? .. .. Well, you might think like that. I can understand your doubts.

**Nobu:** I'm only a lord of the castle in a province, it might sound like a bluff if I say something like that in this situation.

**Nobu:** But words have an unseen power. You, do you know the spiritual message? It means that the words spoken have mysterious power in it.

**Nobu:** There is no start if you don't speak. If you don't speak, it's the same as you've done nothing.

**Nobu:** In other words, even if it's a ridiculous bluff, it is likely to become a reality if you speak it out.

**Nobu:** I believe so.

**Nobu:** Well, that's not the only reason to have the world.

**Nobu:** A force that does not yield to authority. Overwhelming achievement. Trustable servants. I have them all.

**Nobu:** Can you understand a little bit of, my heart that I want to talk with a guarantee?

**Nobu:** Oh well, I've talked too much. It's almost time for lunch. You can also join and help yourself.

**Mitsu:** Nice to meet you. I'm Mitsu. Are you Sir Nobu's guest? Welcome to Sir Nobu's castle.

**Mitsu:** By the way.. You look quite unique.

**Mitsu:** No, I don't. It's not that. I don't have any complaints.

**Mitsu:** You're Sir Nobu's guest.. I thought you have a great sense of accepting new trends. This Mitsu is impressed.

**Mitsu:** What? The relationship between Sir Nobu and me..? Umm, I see. As you said, I'm a servant of Sir Nobu.

**Mitsu:** Oh no. I'm not just a servant of Sir Nobu, but his first servant, so to speak, the closest servant.

**Mitsu:** Sir Nobu is a wonderful person. He is lively and strong. He has the power to turn the impossible into the possible.

**Mitsu:** He is just the lord of one of the local provinces, but someday he will take over the world. I believe so.

**Mitsu:** In order to do that, we the servants must be united and do our best to make Sir Nobu's dreams come true.

**Mitsu:** We will become Sir Nobu's hands and feet, and move for him. Even if our hands get dirty. Of course, we can throw our lives if needed..!

**Mitsu:** .. .. ..Ah, I'm sorry. I got excited without noticing.

**Mitsu:** Sir Nobu always tells me to relax my shoulders.. But maybe because of my stubborn personality..

**Mitsu:** Anyway, it's proof that I respect Sir Nobu more than anyone else.

**Mitsu:** I'm sure that Sir Nobu trusts me the most.

**Mitsu:** He surely will think so. Definitely. Rather than Ranmaru.. who has just become the servant..

**Mitsu:** What? Who is Ranmaru? Ah.. You haven't met him yet. Ranmaru is a newly joined servant.

**Mitsu:** He is a newcomer and doesn't know the rules here, and he is a rude guy who behaves openly to Sir Nobu.

**Mitsu:** Please watch out for Ranmaru. He looks very cute at a glimpse, but he's a terrible.. No, this was too mean.

**Mitsu:** Anyway, he has completely different inside and outside, please take care not to be fooled by him.

**Ranmaru:** Ah, hello! You're Sir Nobu's guest, right? I'm Ranmaru! Nice to meet you~

**Ranmaru:** Huh? What's wrong? You have a weird look on your face.. Huh? Did you hear about me from Mitsu?

**Ranmaru:** Ah~ I see. That's why your face looks like that.

**Ranmaru:** Did Mitsu talk bad a lot about me? Mitsu hates me.

**Ranmaru:** But I'm not as bad as Mitsu told you.

**Ranmaru:** I like Sir Nobu so much, so I'm just stuck to him and ask to play with me. Because~ you want to stay with someone you like, don't you?

**Ranmaru:** I want to know more about Sir Nobu, and I want to tell him more about me. That's all.

**Ranmaru:** Sir Nobu is a wonderful person. He's so great with martial arts, knowledge and talents!

**Ranmaru:** Someday if Sir Nobu gets the world in his hands, I'd like to stay beside him and watch the same view.

**Ranmaru:** I'm going to serve Sir Nobu until that day.

**Ranmaru:** Mitsu always says that he could throw his life away for Sir Nobu, but I think that's too much.

**Ranmaru:** I can't protect Sir Nobu if I die, can I? I only will die when Sir Nobu dies.

**Ranmaru:** I'll never die except for that moment. To protect Sir Nobu, I'll survive at all costs.

**Ranmaru:** .. .. Ouch, my, my~ Speaking like this doesn't go well with me~

**Ranmaru:** I have to serve Sir Nobu lovely and brightly always! I have to let Mitsu be serious and I have to be smiling all the time..

**Ranmaru:** So please pretend that you haven't heard anything. I'm embarrassed by me if someone finds out that I think like that.

**Ranmaru:** What? Am I trying too hard? What are you talking about~ Not at all. This is my nature.

**Ranmaru:** It's true~ My personality is like this and I use this kind of tone always~ Oh well~~~ You're so mean~!

**Ranmaru:** Ah, Sir Nobu is calling me. I'll go now!

**Ranmaru:** I'll talk to Mitsu who has been talking bad about me to you!

**Ranmaru:** Ah, don't worry about that! Just a little talk, I'll really~~ talk a little bit!

**Ranmaru:** .. .. .. .. ..

**Ranmaru:** .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..

**Ranmaru:** Yes, really a little bit, but give him a good scolding.

**Mitsu:** Sir Nobu? I want to discuss the tactics to be used in the next battle.. Can you spare some time for me?

**Nobu:** Oh, Mitsu. Sure. Come in.

**Mitsu:** I'm sorry. Let me excuse for a while.

**Nobu:** Ah, right. Before we start, I also have something to ask you.

**Mitsu:** What's that? Please tell this Mitsu everything.

**Nobu:** Well.. It's about Ranmaru.

**Mitsu:** .. .. ..Ranmaru? Did Ranmaru do something?

**Nobu:** I'm going to ask you straight forward. Mitsu, aren't you bothering Ranmaru?

**Nobu:** For example.. Such as.. Right, you talk bad about Ranmaru to my guest.. Did you do something like that?

**Mitsu:** What, what the, such a crazy thing! I, I never did such, such a boring thing!

**Nobu:** Hmm.. Really? You seem pretty shaken up for that, don't you think?

**Mitsu:** That, that's.. I mean..!

**Nobu:** .. .. .. ..Well, whatever. But you've been in this castle longer, and you're also a senior as a servant.

**Nobu:** If you treat him harshly, the newcomer Ranmaru would feel intimidated, isn't that pity?

**Mitsu:** If you say so, it is.. ..

**Nobu:** There may be some misunderstandings, but Ranmaru is a good kid.

**Nobu:** He's smart, excellent in martial arts, and very loyal. Besides, he's very cute.

**Nobu:** Above all, he likes me very much and follows me like a puppy calling me Sir Nobu~ Sir Nobu~

**Nobu:** There rarely is such a child. Mitsu, don't you think so too?

**Mitsu:** Ex, excuse me.. Sir Nobu..

**Nobu:** What's wrong?

**Mitsu:** No, well.. Nevertheless, I dare to say a word.. It might be a small part of Ranmaru..

**Nobu:** Huh? What do you mean?

**Mitsu:** I mean that Ranmaru might have another, hidden face.

**Mitsu:** Ranmaru you know is not all of him.. ..

**Nobu:** Hahahahaha, what are you talking about! Mitsu, you're worrying too much! If you care about those tiny things, you'll be bald one day!

**Mitsu:** .. .. .. ..Urgh.. I'm sorry.

**Nobu:** And even if Ranmaru has a dual nature, such a tricky man is much more fun to deal with.

**Mitsu:** Is.. that so..

**Nobu:** That's right. Without that spirit, you can never get the world. Do you understand, Mitsu?

**Mitsu:** Whew.. Well.. If you say so..

**Nobu:** Then, let's go back to the main point. Was is about the tactics for the next battle?

**Nobu:** You worry too much, but because of that, the tactics you make are perfect. I really respect that about Mitsu.

**Mitsu:** Thank you so much!!

**Ranmaru:** Sir Nobu! It's Ranmaru! Can I go in?

**Nobu:** Sure. Come in.

**Ranmaru:** Excuse me~ ..Eh? Two teacups? Was someone here?

**Nobu:** What? ..Ah, Mitsu was here.

**Ranmaru:** Mitsu? Did he say something about me?

**Nobu:** Say about you.. Actually we talked about the previous event.

**Ranmaru:** Ah, no way, Sir Nobu. Did you tell Mitsu to be careful because of me?

**Ranmaru:** Wow~! I knew you would! I can surely count on you~!

**Nobu:** Umm, okay.. And about that..

**Ranmaru:** What's wrong?

**Nobu:** Mitsu told me that you have a hidden nature and so on.

**Ranmaru:** .. .. ..What? Mitsu, he said such kind of thing even to you.

**Nobu:** Well, yes he did. .. ..By the way, what's the matter, Ranmaru. You look so scary.

**Ranmaru:** What? ..Ah, I never make a scary face. See, isn't it the same face you've always seen?

**Nobu:** Umm, yes it is.

**Ranmaru:** Why, what's wrong, Sir Nobu..? Are you being suspicious of me?

**Nobu:** No, I don't doubt it.. But I was thinking that Mitsu might not be wrong at all.

**Ranmaru:** Th, that's.. ..!

**Nobu:** Oh, but I'm not going to blame you even if you do. Although you have a different nature, the loyalty you have must be true, right?

**Nobu:** Is there no lie in the heart that trusts me? If that's true, nothing else matters.

**Ranmaru:** Sir Nobu-!! I really like you! I'm really really sincerely following you!

**Nobu:** I know, I know. I got it.

**Ranmaru:** Ah, well, Sir Nobu! I'm~ thirsty! I'll make tea, why don't we have tea together?

**Nobu:** Sure. Let's have the new candies I got a while ago with tea.

**Ranmaru:** Wow~! I'll prepare the tea right away then!

**Mitsu:** Ah, you're here. I was looking for you, Ranmaru.

**Ranmaru:** .. ..Why? I have to bring tea to Sir Nobu so I'm busy now.

**Mitsu:** Tea.. To Sir Nobu?

**Ranmaru:** Yes. Sir Nobu and me. We're going to have tea together with candies. Are you jealous, Mitsu?

**Mitsu:** .. ..Ranmaru, where is your usual childish tone all go?

**Mitsu:** You look completely different from usual. I didn't know that you could speak in that mature tone.

**Ranmaru:** I can do that any time I want.. But I'm a child anyway. Wouldn't it be better for Sir Nobu that I speak innocently?

**Ranmaru:** Well, you're the only one here right now. I think I don't need to care too much.

**Mitsu:** Ranmaru.. .. You're much more of a strategist than me.

**Ranmaru:** Am I? I don't think so.

**Mitsu:** No. You're a pretty good strategist.

**Ranmaru:** Ah, that's not it, Mitsu. What I was saying doesn't mean that I'm not the strategist,

**Ranmaru:** It means that it's a bit of mistake to call you a strategist. That's what I denied.

**Mitsu:** What.. do you mean..?

**Ranmaru:** You're smart and good at making tactics, but not a strategist, I mean.

**Ranmaru:** You're surprisingly honest, and sincere to a fault, aren't you? Well.. You seem unadaptable?

**Mitsu:** Wh, what the..

**Ranmaru:** See what happened a minute ago. You talked about me stupidly honestly to Sir Nobu.

**Ranmaru:** If I were you, I could have put in a deeper trap.. I thought like that and it became boring.

**Mitsu:** Argh.. ..

**Ranmaru:** Ah, I can't do this! I talked too long. Since Sir Nobu is waiting, I'll go~!

**Mitsu:** Uh, wait.. Wait for a second! Ranmaru!

**Ranmaru:** What~? Do you still have something to say?

**Mitsu:** If you act like that, I also have a plan.

**Mitsu:** Please take me to the tea with Sir Nobu. No, I'll be with you.

**Ranmaru:** Huh? What are you talking about?

**Mitsu:** Do what I say. This is an order.

**Ranmaru:** .. .. ..Hmm? Well, it doesn't matter.

**Ranmaru:** What you are thinking and up to.. I'm looking forward to it!

**Ranmaru:** Then, I need to prepare one more tea.

**Mitsu:** No, it's okay Ranmaru. I'll prepare mine by myself..

**Ranmaru:** Really? Then do as you wish.

**Mitsu:** Should I prepare Sir Nobu's and your again? It's been a while and the tea might have cooled down.

**Ranmaru:** Ah, right. It sounds necessary.

**Mitsu:** Then, give it to me as you were preparing.

**Ranmaru:** But I feel sorry to ask you do everything. Do you want me to help?

**Mitsu:** I'm okay. I'm used to making teas.

**Ranmaru:** Oho~ Then, please do it. Thanks, Mitsu.

**Mitsu:** It feels weird to hear thank you from you..

**Ranmaru:** I do that when I have to. I'm not an animal.

**Mitsu:** Well, that's true. Then, Ranmaru, I'll bring the tea..

**Mitsu:** You can go to Sir Nobu first. It's not good to make Sir Nobu wait long.

**Ranmaru:** Huh? .. .. ..Ah, but..

**Mitsu:** It's okay. Well, hurry up.

**Ranmaru:** .. ..I got it, Mitsu. I'll be there first then. You come quickly too.

**Mitsu:** Yes, I will.

**Ranmaru:** Ah, and Mitsu.. I'm sorry about talking too harshly a while ago~

**Ranmaru:** I, actually.. want to stay close with Mitsu~ But it's not working well.. I got angry and talked to you badly. I'm sorry..

**Mitsu:** Ranmaru..

**Ranmaru:** Anyway, Mitsu! See you later!

**Mitsu:** .. .. .. .. ..

**Mitsu:** .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..

**Mitsu:** Good, I think he's gone. Let's make the tea again now.

**Mitsu:** This dark green cup is for Sir Nobu, and this light pink cup is for Ranmaru.

**Mitsu:** Then, I'll put the best tea leaves I saved in the green teacup for Sir Nobu. And in the light pink teacup, I'll put the cheapest tea leaves with no taste.

**Mitsu:** I'm going to punish Ranmaru with this.

**Mitsu:** I felt pity for Ranmaru seeing his behavior just a while ago.. But I can't help it. Ranmaru will come to himself.

**Mitsu:** Let's go to Sir Nobu's room now. I'm excited to see Ranmaru's surprised face.

**Mitsu:** I'm going to make him regret calling me

**Ranmaru:** Ah, Mitsu~ I was waiting~!!

**Nobu:** Oh, Mitsu. Thanks.

**Mitsu:** I'm sorry to make you wait. I was preparing the best tea for both of you and it took a long time.

**Ranmaru:** Wow~ It's true! The color of the tea is beautiful. Thank you, Mitsu~!

**Mitsu:** No, nothing special..

**Ranmaru:** Umm~ This green teacup is Sir Nobu's! And this is mine~ .. .. Ah, Sir Nobu! Be careful, it's hot~

**Nobu:** Thanks, Ranmaru. You're very careful.

**Ranmaru:** Of~~~course! If something happens to Sir Nobu, I'll be very~ scolded by Mitsu~!

**Mitsu:** Wa, wait, Ranmaru! When did I..!!

**Ranmaru:** Ahaha~ Is this a secret~? I'm sorry~

**Nobu:** Well, well. Shall we drink tea now? Mitsu had made good tea in a long time, let's drink it before it cools down.

**Ranmaru:** Yes~~! Ah, right~ Sir Nobu! It's been a while~ Why don't we exchange our cups and drink~?

**Mitsu:** Ra, Ra, Ranmaru?! What are you talking about! You're being rude!!

**Ranmaru:** But~ Sir Nobu's teacup.. Doesn't it have a really beautiful color?

**Ranmaru:** Uhh~ Just for once. I wanted to drink tea with Sir Nobu's cup. ..Can I..?

**Nobu:** Um, I don't care much.

**Mitsu:** Nononononono, that's not possible! Never! Ranmaru, why don't you know your place more?!

**Ranmaru:** ..By the way~ Why are you so embarrassed? Is there something bothering you~?

**Mitsu:** There, there's nothing bothering me!

**Ranmaru:** Why do you care then~? I'll drink Sir Nobu's tea then~!

**Ranmaru:** I'll give my tea to Sir Nobu! Here!

**Mitsu:** Aaaaaaaaaaah.. ..!

**Nobu:** Thanks for the tea, Mitsu. (Gulp) .. .. ..Eh? What is this?

**Ranmaru:** What's the matter, Sir Nobu?

**Nobu:** No.. Um.. This tea, it doesn't taste anything. It's just colored water then. Mitsu, what happened here?

**Mitsu:** Well.. That's.. That is..

**Ranmaru:** Uh~? Mine too, Sir Nobu! It tastes nothing!

**Mitsu:** Huh? That's impossible..?!

**Nobu:** .. .. ..Mitsu?

**Mitsu:** No, I mean.. This is.. Well.. Something's wrong! No, to be precise, it's not wrong.. But something is wrong!

**Mitsu:** I surely used the best tea leaves in Sir Nobu's teacup..!

**Ranmaru:** .. ..Hmm~? "In Sir Nobu's teacup".. You said?

**Mitsu:** Ouch.. ..

**Ranmaru:** That means~ Mine is different. Mitsu, you said..

**Ranmaru:** You were "preparing the best tea for both of you", but mine was actually the cheap tea without taste or fragrance.

**Ranmaru:** I, did tell you a lie just in case..

**Ranmaru:** After all, mine was different.. That's the truth..

**Nobu:** What happened, Mitsu?

**Ranmaru:** I.. I wanted to get along with Mitsu.. I tried to get along well.. .. You're so mean.. Mitsu.. So mean..

**Mitsu:** Ah.. Well.. ..

**Nobu:** Mitsu, I know you don't like Ranmaru. I knew.. But isn't this a bit too much?

**Nobu:** I know very well that you're a strategist, but you don't need to make tactics for this kind of small matter.

**Mitsu:** But, I never thought it would be like this..

**Ranmaru:** Aaaaaaah~~ Sir Nobu~~~!!!

**Nobu:** Mitsu!!

**Mitsu:** .. ..Ahh.. Oh no..! It's me who really wants to cry!

**Mitsu:** Ranmaru is much more cunning than me! It's true!!

**Mitsu:** Look at him! He's pretending to cry and actually laughing at the side where you can't see! Please trust me, Sir Nobu-!!
