{Dear Readers, If you see (GAIDEN) in the chapter title, it's a "side story" and a guide to the main story}.
At a mountain peek buried with mists, lies a country which is said to be "The country that God abandoned" but best known as "Kami naki kokka" translated as the "Godless nation".
This country is ruled by the descendant of the Watanabe family.
At The Year 4012 B.T.G.C
At the border point of the watanabe family stood a well armed man with the will to kill and behind him where about 1000 soldiers.
This man was non-other than the son-in-law of the watanabe family(Itsu Watanabe). Itsu former family status doesn't match up to that of the solid structure of the Watanabe Family. He was lucky enough to catch the eyes of the second daughter of the family, So he was brought into the Family and blessed with the family's name by the Father.
It was quite easy for Itsu to get the family's blessing from the Father because even the Father of the Watanabe family was brought in and it took him 3years, 7months and 11days to get the Grandfathers blessing, so he knows what Itsu will pass through.
And then he tells Itsu that his blessing means nothing compared to that of the grandfather's.
So Itsu went and cooked a plan to seducing and having affairs with the Father's two other daughter then it lead to a forced marriage.
But the Grandfather could care less of the situation because even he had had multi affairs with royal blood from even outside the continent.
He went as far as joining the military formed by the Watanabe family just to impress the Grandfather.
He worked too hard till the whole military gave him a nickname "Rough blessing".
Because no one understood why someone like him, who was blessed with beautiful women, fortune, power, and riches. would drag himself through the dirt just to get an old man's blessing.
Time passed and turned to days.
Days passed and turned to weeks.
Weeks passed and turned to months.
Itsu Watanabe had planned at least 6 plan and not even one was a successful. Until he heard two guards discussing about something.
"What!!, six black post soldiers were injured and two are missing"
"stop shouting!!, i am not even allowed to pass this info to you."
"Do you mean that the Goro clan still left that unsealed beast out just to protect their forsaken temple."
"As the matter stands right now, we can't infiltrate the Ito clan, if that **THING** is still standing and breathing, but we pleaded with the other branches of the Watanabe family and the last son of the west branch (Takeo Watanabe) said he will accept our request and will be arriving any time soon."
Hearing this Itsu was shocked, because he has heard stories about the abandoned Goro clan temple which was taken by a SAGE that went mad with power. But thought it was all a myth.
But Itsu could care less about the Goro clan problem, all he thought about was the man who was requested for such a delicate mission. He then boldly walked before the two gossiping soldiers and then held both them by the neck.
"Master Itsu sorry for slacking on the job", one the soldiers said while he gasps for air.
"If you both are truely sorry you can start by telling me everything about Takeo Watanabe".
20 MINUTES LATER...
"Is that all?, Takeo Watanabe, 24years old by age. He uses a spear as a weapon, the blade of the spear is highly toxic. He is arrogant, a womanizer, boastfull and sometimes crafty. Is that all?"
"Yes Master, that's all the information we have on him"
"What the hell do you bastards think i will do with such thin information ?"
"S...sorry sir, thats all we have"
"Ok then do you have any knowledge of when he shall arrive?"
"Yes...Yes, He will be arriving at the next sunrise"
"Is that sooo, that is just enough time to stir up a new plan".
"But Master if i may ask, why are you soo fixed on the west branch last son ?".
Then Itsu gave him a cold stare and said "It just for research".
Itsu became more fixed on Takeo he asked his wives about the man, but none has ever seen him due to family customs.
**NEXT DAY**
ALL HAIL MASTER TAKEO!!!
Just for one person such festival was held, is he that good?
Itsu was on the temple stairs doing his morning 100 stairs mental excersise, but he could hear the blasting sounds of the instruments played for Takeo.
He stood by the temple and examined the man called Takeo Watanabe.
He is a man with an average height, blonde hair, he has a spear hung on his back which means he is a spear user...
Before he could get a 100% analyses on Takeo, a bird carrying with it a letter came fly by and landing on Itsu's shoulder.
Itsu wasted no time opening the letter and a message was written saying"CAN YOU PLEASE STOP STALKING ME?".
Shocked with what he just read Itsu looked back at Takeo and he was staring right back at him.
Itsu then said to himself "This guy isn't your ordinary brother-in-law".
Takeo then looked away and headed straight to the Main family's building where the grandfather was awaiting his arrival.
Takeo entered the main building where the grandfather was at process of finishing an artwork, but Takeo waisted no time but to bow and say "Good day grandfather, how are you doing?, why thats a lovely painting".
The grandfather then said "Anytime i see you bastard it irritates me".
After hearing that a load of anger was bursted out of Takeo saying, "You old man, upon all i have done, you still do not love me, so did you call me to just make fund of me or what?".
The grandfather cleared his throat and told Takeo, "I did not call for a stray dog such as youself but the military did, unlike them i have a solid plan to solve the Ito clan problem".
"You arrogant son of a..."
" I think that is enough Master Takeo".
"And who the hell are you surposed to be?".
"I am the Watanabe main branch military war strategist And also i was the one who sent for you".
" But the message i received told me it was from the grandfather".
" Sorry about that, you were the only branch member that was available and any time we sent for you, you would decline, soo i ..."
"Shut up, the more you talk the more i get sick and sorry to disappoint but i quit".
" If your not going can i take your place" Itsu said boldly.
