Objective: Guard a merchant caravan as it travels to the village from the border
Location: Kaminari no Kuni Border
Reward: 300 ryo
Mission Description: You have been hired to meet up with a small merchant caravan at the border and escort it the rest of the way to the village
Mission Details: The caravan is running late and is eager to take the most direct route to the village. However the route is compromised as the caravan will soon learn by bandits blocking the road. There are three men with D rank stats and large hammers standing in front of the barricade of an overturned cart. One woman is sitting on top of it that can cast up to C rank lightning jutsu. Descriptions of NPC up to the writer. Must eliminate or capture the bandits to move on.
“Your turn, my friend.” He says and looks away from the board as Mitsuharu hovers closer to the board and debates his move. Mitsuhide’s grey eyes scan the surrounding area. He was supposedly waiting on a second person for this mission, as well as waiting on the caravan itself. He had beaten all other parties to the agreed upon, so he and Mitsuharu had began playing shogi. It still failed to register to him that to everyone except himself, it looked like he was playing against and talking to himself. Mitsuharu didn't agree with Mitsuhide at first, about his quest to seek knowledge from the shinobi, but eventually grew to support the idea. The spirit took comfort that even if Mitsuhide had no one else, he would still be there.
“Yeah Yeah. Hold your horses, Youngster. I’m thinking.” The disembodied voice murmurs as he studies the board before him, causing a chuckle to rise from Mitsuhide. Mitsuharu was his oldest friend and a big part of why he fled his home. Having his companionship was the first thing Mitsuhide remembers and he refused to let that go. He smiled fondly at the floating orb who had began motioning to the board. “There. Move that one there.” He says and Mitsuhide complies and the game continued back and forth until either the second person arrived or the caravan got there, which ever one came first. After some time, the sound of hooves can be heard, a sure sign of caravan.
"Alright Old man. Time to pack it up, we have a job to do. Go keep an eye out while i clean up." Mitsuhide says as he begins packing up the travel sized shogi board. The Spirit complies and floats over to the road to watch for the caravan, which was still a ways off. After finishing packing away the game, Mitsuhide tucks it away and retrieves Ikazuchi, buckling it onto his belt as he walks to the side of the road. "Time to stay sharp. Be the eyes in the back of my head, yeah?" Mistuhide says and lifts his fist up, to which Mitsuharu headbutts in response. Together they wait, a young man and his rather invisible spirit companion.
