Lady Masako has tracked one of the conspirators behind her family's slaughter. His name is Headman Sadao, a once loyal servant of Clan Adachi. Sadao was hiding in Ariake, but Masako has located his brother and believes trailing him will lead us to the deceitful snake.
I had to ride to the Golden Temple, where Masako was waiting for me. And after reaching her, she told me what she found about Sadao's whereabouts, and this mission began.
Masako mentioned, the brother of Sadao will make an unscheduled delivery to his brother, and if we'll be there, we can catch him. So I started following her out of the temple.
After reaching the location where we should have found Sadao's brother, he was not around, so we had to look around, and at last we noticed the man with a wagon.
Hachi, the brother of Sadao, started moving taking his wagon, and we started trailing him, knowing he would take us to his brother. But we stopped, as he also stops, at a checkpoint where some bandits were waiting for him.
After a brief conversation, Hachi took the right way, while the bandits took the left one, and Masako suggested we should follow the bandits next. And following them, we reached this village where we assumed Sadao should be waiting for us.
I thought we would go quietly, but Masako didn't have time to waste, so she ran inside the camp, and I followed her, to try a standoff, stepping out into the open and resting my hand on the hilt of my katana.
While Masako was doing her part in the battle, I was taking down every bandit on my way, even some that were not on my way.
And at last, there was this last bandit, whom I slaughtered keeping Masako a witness. And then, Masako mentioned there is someone in the house, and she will make them talk. But Jin said he will take lead in this, as he know Masako is hot-headed.
After getting inside the house, they found a lady who is the wife of Sadao, whom they asked for Sadao's locations, but she said she didn't cooperate. So, Masako decided to take her along to Adachi Estate. And the mission came to an end.
