Noboru Miyamoto

Noboru Miyamoto, The patriarch of the Noboru Clan,

An old man nearing death's door reborn in the System as a mighty Sword Saint rivalling Jake Thayne.

### Personality

He had kept old world values such as honour while also kept up with modern times adopting capitalist values to revive the clan financially, After entering the Tutorial he had some misconceptions with the System, Thinking that Mana is the new trend but after a bout with Jake and some addition from Carmen, he was convinced to stick with his shtick.

During the Tutorial, He was blessed by a unnamed God, Who after his return to Earth demanded to surrender his clan to Sanctdomo which he refused and also relinquished the Blessing.

### History

Even before the System, Noboru had been a significant individual both due to his status and skill, With his clan whose history go back as far as the Shoguns,

#### Before "Prepare for trouble, Make it double"

During the duel with Jake, He shared his fondest memory as decapitating a Bear whilst escaping from a failed expedition on Russia during the Second World War, Where all his comrades had to go Seppuku since unfortunately unlike the japanese soldiers in other parts where they had the luxurious livestock called "prisoners", the unplanned attack left them with little to no rations and they got hit by the coldest Russian winter, Noboru had somehow made it out alive and never spoke of this.

He mentioned his eagerness to join the war, but it was unclear what motivated him or what he did during that, And he also declared despite standing on the wrong side of the war, He didn't regret fighting for it,

#### After "Little Boy and Fat Man"

He had been the chairman of Noboru Group and also won many National championships in Kendo, Proving that he had not let go of his honorable past while also keeping up to business side of modern world through his son.

#### System/Main Story Events

##### Pre Tutorial

By the time he was near his deathbed, He was 107 and had outlived both his wife and firstborn son, His final moments on Earth been witnessed by his middle-aged grandson, And passing his mantle of the Clan leader to him, He was about to join the dead, But at that time everyone on the planet were whisked away from the planet, To the Tutorial.

##### Tutorial and into the 93rd Universe

With new body from the System, The Noboru Patriarch wielded his dulled blade to fight once again, Proving his worth, He lead his Clan both during and after the Tutorial,

He first met Jake during World Congress having entered a pact with Haven, Then and there the two competitive loons decided to have a duel in the Treasure Hunt Event.

During the Treasure Hunt, The two had a small game as to whoever gets more keys (Drops from Counts) from hunting the Vampiric Counts (Mini-Bosses of the Treasure Hunt) gets what's beyond the gates, Which the Noboru Clan won in exchange for a favor to the Holy Church, But its benefits had been lost since the gates opened after were the Vaults, Individual puzzles requiring individuals solving them and scattered across the Yalsten.

At the end of the Treasure Hunt, after slaying the Fallen Monarch, They both duelled as Yalsten fell apart. Jake won at first, and the fight stopped while Miyamoto reflected on what he truly wanted to be. After prompting from Jake, he recalls his time during the Second World War and creates his Transcendence. He then used this Transcendence to engage in a rematch with Jake, the end result of this one being a tie, although Jake considers it to be his loss.

After The Malefic Viper heard about Miyamoto's transcendence, and his refusal to take the easy way out of the downsides by buying the Soul Renewal item offered by the system during the auction after the Treasure Hunt for this exact purpose, he was impressed and decided to recommend Miyamoto to his friend and fellow Primordial Aeon Clok. Aeon is impressed with Miyamoto, and after speaking with him, bestows upon him his Divine Blessing.

1. ↑ In the story, It was not explicitly mentioned that Noboru was part of invasion of Russia, But given evidences of Scorched Earth Policy, Unforgiving cold winter which is typical in Russia and the encounter with Bear. (Although the latter is not the best evidence since Bears can also be found in Chinese Manchuria and Hokkaido Region of Japan, But these territories were already under Japanese control at the start of the war and hence the Bear in this story is assumed to be found in Russia)
