A day after the Seamstress fell, Kachito and Zotawa claimed the 5,000 from Randamu and left Mt. Sagi-shi Town. They were riding high. And nothing could take them down.
However...
News of the Seamstress' death reached the Oni Council.
Oni #1: So she perished in the field of battle. A way I want to go. She will be remembered.
Another member sighs.
Oni #2: Please...she was full of herself. I saw this coming years ago.
Oni #1: Show respect! She was one of us.
Another starts maniacally cackling.
Oni #3: I agree with him y'know! She was a selfish bitch! She had it comin-
Then, the Oni Lord spoke up.
Oni Lord: Silence you three. Her death is definitely cause for concern. It means a human is trying to become the next Heavenly Swordsman. And they may be able to achieve it if they killed her.
The others quiet down realizing that. The Oni Lord's presence gets angrier.
Oni Lord: So...we must inform our human allies at the Global Government. They will be able to mobilize assassins and bounty hunters to kill the humans. So, inform them of the Seamstress' passing. And to put a bounty on the heads of Zotawa Rodin and Kachito Mishimura. Dismissed.
The three leave to go inform the Global Government. Soon enough bounties were out for the pair. And the Global Government's Assassin Guild was mobilized. Sending their weakest link. Because they are full of themselves.
Currently, Kachito and Zotawa are walking down a dirt path through a field of cherry blossom trees. The first assassin watching them.
???: So those two are my targets...
The assassin sighs.
???: Alright...you can do this. You can do this...
