As Bōei awoke from the rays of sun gleaming on his face through his window, he wondered just how he had gotten back to his apartment. The last thing he remembered was collapsing in the middle of the courtyard of the Sword Saint compound. "Maybe they brought me here?" he questioned himself. He looked at his body and was surprised by the fact he no longer had any of the wounds, burns, and bruises he had suffered during the mission. "I guess they did heal me up..." he muttered to himself as he sat up in bed. He shuffled himself out of the bed and began to get himself ready for the day and head back to the compound to find out what happens next. He hopped into the shower to wash off the sleep from his body and brushed his teeth before eating a bit of breakfast in the kitchen. After finishing his breakfast, he grabbed his all black outfit and put in his black contacts. He got dressed and made his way out the door to the Market District where the compound was.
As he walked, he wondered just what Rippā would have in store for him when he got back to the compound. Since he won the competition, he figured he would get to go to the ceremony with him at least to watch. It was a beautiful day outside and Bōei certainly enjoyed the nice weather and the cool breeze blowing throughout the district. He watched as his fellow villagers walked by him handling their shopping at the various shops surrounding him. It didn't take long before he was at the door step of the Sword Saint compound. He walked into the compound and was greeted by one of Rippā's assistants he had seen the last time he was at the compound. "Hey kid, welcome back. You did a good job on the mission. Rippā has requested you wait in the courtyard by the horses. Go over there and wait for him to arrive. He should be there shortly" the assistant spoke to Bōei. Bōei followed the instructions and made his way out to the courtyard where there were two horses packed with supplies. He assumed he and Rippā would be riding out to the ceremony site on the horses. From what he knew, the ceremony site was a decent distance away from the village and horses would certainly make the trek quite bit easier considering they would probably be out there for a few days. He found himself standing next to the horse on the right and began to wait for his new mentor to arrive so that they could set off on their journey together.
