in 1633, japan closed its borders to the outside world.
completely.

citizens would never see a white face, nor any face that was not japanese.

a child born mixed race would be considered less than a human.
pitiable.
monstrous.
from these times rose a legend..
or two..
of a swordsman and an unknown man.

*slurp*
"hmm you know ringo, this is the best food i've ever eaten"

a man who's eating fast, slightly inhuman made another man who's name ringo fascinated

"well (m/n) this is the best soba here, of course the tea is not as good but it's warm-"

"Ringo! ugh customer, Big hat"

both of you turned around to see who ringo's father was talking about and in the corner there was a man sitting with a sword

ringo walked over to the customer
"welcome sir, i'll bring you some tea. it's not good tea but it's hot, and you're frozen and i'll bring you a rag because when i'm frozen, my snot drips. then a nice big soba. we make the best soba. honest. bad tea, great soba. okay?"

there was a small silence between the two till ringo started humming and walked away
an ugly man stopped him

"stumpy! more noodles, fast.
finish your bowls, i paid your fathers good money for you. the brothers will pay me even more once you get some curve on, you skinny country nothings. Eat!"

as ringos humming continues he then was later interrupted by his father

"Go! Hurry!"
"huh?"
"if that flesh-trader kills anyone here itd be bad for business"
"go and don't spill!"

ringo then grabbed the soba and slightly ran over to the recent customer, as he placed the bowl on the table the guy grabbed it and started sniffing it and then slightly drank it then started eating more and more till he finished

"it's good right"
ringo then stood up and started humming again and walked towards the others

"finally, eat up girls! eat it all!"
he grabbed one of the girls face and she reacted pushing his hand away causing ringo to accidentally spill the bowl.
the man got up and slapped ringo at the face getting the attention of a certain man

(M/N) POV

as i was eating my 5th bowl of soba i heard a slap, i looked up and saw that ringo was the one who got slapped by a man who has spilled soba on his clothes

"what are you? a dog? you let a dog serve food!"

the store owner laughed nervously
"forgive my son. cant go a day without breaking dishes. Ringo. Clean him!"

"i'm sorry"
ringo then took a step and slipped a bit causing more hot soba spill onto the man
"sorry, sorry"

as i was still watching and slurping my soba noticed the guy pull out something,
a gun?!
people gasped at the sight of it

"i should put down this lame dog"

ringo looked into the man's eyes
"i'm not a dog"

"did you just bark? do you know who i am? i am hachiman the flesh trader. no one messes with hachi!"

i looked at the man in confusion but with disgust in my face
then i heard scraping coming from the other side of the shop

it was the newer customer who came in and he was pushing the table leaving and creating marks on the floor, he got up and walked towards hachi
