After Bravos return with Itas on his back, he slowly lifts him from his back and slowly lays Itas down on a bed, and Ena comes over filled with worry and hurry to calls Otojo over to look at his body riddled with wounds.
Otojo slowly comes from the outside and sits down beside Itas. He takes a knife from his bag and a bit of alcohol; he open it and pour it over his knife, afterward he cuts the blood soaked cloth and a weird look flashes on his face and with a frown he checks all the wounds ´His wound is healing at inhumane speed he will probably wake up soon, but the feeling of his first murder won't go over so fast, and it to be so many puts a burden on his mind that keeps him asleep state to self protect his mind´ afterward he turns to Ena and Bravos ¨His body is healing and will probably be fine in a week or 2, there won't be a need for surgery¨
Ena and Bravos sigh in relief ¨At least he didn't get killed¨
Flames of ages come out of Bravos Eye ¨He dares to attack the bandits chief before he got guts! ¨ then walks away with a huff.
After he walks away Aimi, Aiya, Etsu, Fuji, Gen, Gina, Haruko, Haya comes over and looks at Itas, and they try to let him lay comfortably in the bed at go and do different action, gathering wood and scouting around to make sure bandit doesn't come close to their hideout, but they got one thing in common they are sad that their husband before death didn't get Itas away, though something Itas didn't know was that they never consumed their marriage, that's why their husband didn't like them being around other guys, even if it was only a child in their eyes.
After they leave to do their task, a week flash by and Itas eyes snap open and look around alert and turn around to see his surrounding ¨Where am I¨ then sees a knife at the bedside and arm himself before slowly standing up soundlessly and looking out of the tent ¨I hope I wasn't captured¨ then looks out but sees Ena comes with a water and relief overcome him «sigh» `lucky survived´
Ena looks up at Itas and is surprised ¨You woke up early, we are at a camp Bravos made if bandit raid happens since they spotted them around the village a lot, so we went away from our hiding spot and made a new one¨
Itas looks at Ena with a bit of surprise flashes in his eye ¨Why did they all not escape? ¨
Ena looks downcast ¨They didn't believe that bandit was coming before it was too late, and the village was in peace for too long so even though many of them was brave fighters once in a time they have become weak with time, all they could do was send the children and women away before they went to defend against the bandit so they could escape¨
Itas looks out sadly ¨That's bad, huh, where are we going now? ¨
Ena looks at Itas with a surprised face ¨Your calm about this, we tough it would take longer for you to calm down, well we are going to Mino, but be prepared Bravos is still angry with you, and I will probably be later too.
Itas looks at Ena with a weird look ¨Why are you not angry that I left for fighting the bandit without saying anything now? ¨
Ena looks at Itas with a smile ¨Because right now I'm happy that you survived, I will probably be angry at you later for this¨ «cute puff» then she goes out of the door.
After a round fifteen minute Bravos comes storming in and hit Itas on the head before barging Itas about everything he did wrong, like not planning how he should have attack and why he did not wait for him to return and each, it was a long conversion, but it made me happy, it looks like I should not have being in so much of a rush in going out and fight.

After that, each of the women of the village comes in and talks to him, and after coming forth, they talk with him, and without him knowing they have decided to work for him later to repay him for trying to save the villagers that left for defending, even though he might be a child now they see potential in him.
After a couple of days everyone has recovered, they prepare to head out for Mino trading their goods and start an inn. And by the way, Ena meant what she said, she was angry a long time afterward; she had an icy face for almost three days before returning to semi normal mood with smile and laugh, it was a really terrifying time.
After walking for a couple of days they found a village to stay in a couple of days, and Itas have brook trough another threshold with the dragon spear after the bandit raid, he also struggles with nightmares after what happened to the village yet, but not that hard that he went through the first night.
After staying in the village for a week, they decided to leave again for Mino but with more vigor after resting, and Itas has started hanging around Haruto, Kaito, Mammon, Akane, and Eiko more afterward, he has learned the hard way he can't do everything alone, and if he doesn't look around more those around might suddenly end up dead, so he vows to not fail as he did in village.
After walking a couple of weeks they finally got to Mino, the journey was long, they meet a raid, so they needed to hide a lot before coming here Itas looks at the big gate ¨Finally here¨ then they go and Bravos knock on the gate ¨We are new people and want to live here a while¨ afterward a gatekeeper comes and search them before saying shouting back ¨Someone will soon come with an application that you need to write before entering, can anyone there write and need help? ¨
Ena looks up at the guard gratefully and responded ¨I can write, so no thank you¨
Gatekeeper sees Ena beauty and looks lechery at Ena ¨sure¨ then turns his eyes away and enters the gate house again.
Ena looks away and release a sigh of frustration ¨Otojo, can you compound something that hides our faces? ¨
Otojo smiles wryly, ¨Can, but it will take a day¨
Ena looks at the other women that are with them ¨Do it, we will need it late¨
Otojo ¨As you say madam¨ then give a formal bow. Afterward he lifts his bag from his back and put it at the ground.
Otojo gets busy and takes some of the herbs and mixes them before putting them in a basket and closes it ¨It will need to stay there for a day before becoming effective¨
Ena ¨Sure¨ then takes some powder that is saved up from before, and use it on their faces to hide their beauty from the people and after a while a guard come with a paper for them to write on, after giving it out the guard return to the gatehouse, after writing on the papers and knocking again the gatekeeper comes out and looks weird at them since they look different, but he thought that they removed the powder and became ugly duckling, he looks at them with spite before he looks away and takes the papers from them and goes in and after going to the registered office accept the request they are invited inside the city and comes in and show them where they can register living permit and business permit.
After walking a while, Itas and them came over to an enormous government building for registering a business and living permit
After he went to the luxurious house, he finds the person in charge.
Person in charge looks at them with an annoyed expression ¨state your business¨
Bravos ¨We want to start a restaurant/inn and get living permit¨
Register person ¨It will take a couple of weeks to look at your background before deciding, please live at a guest house first¨
Then he calls over a person comes ¨show them the way for guest house¨ and the person walk out and lead them to the guest house where they will rest a couple of days or weeks until they get living permit.
After everyone has settled down, they take some food they have gathered on the way and eats.
After everything is down Itas sees outside ¨So here, we will live for a couple of years¨ then sigh and takes back his eyes and prepared for bedtime
After they prepared to sleep, he looks out and sees a blurry figure before it disappeared again ¨What's that¨ before taking back his eyes and ninja come to his mind ¨looks like they are looking to see if we are a danger for the city¨
5 days later they are shown to a big house and the person teaching them to say ¨You will have six rooms for yourself and can rent a seven room out, and you have a restaurant there¨ then points at the side place of the house ¨You will be able to rent this for 7years before having to register again, and after first month we will look at your sale and decide your rent and taxes on¨ then he shows them all the room after showing he excuses himself before leaving
After that, they split the room. Here is how they split.
Ena, Akane, and Eiko
Itas and Bravos
Haruto, Kaito, and Mammon
Aimi, Etsu, and Fuji
Aiya, Gen, and Gina
Haruko and Haya
After they split the room, they take their baggage there before returning to the restaurant and look around before deciding the workload.
The chef will be Itas, Bravos, and Ena.
Servers will be Aimi, Etsu, Fuji, Aiya.
Gen and Gina will be an accountant and look after that money and decide prices.
