Birth of the Moon God's Descendants

Chapter 68 - Shogun-sama's Rage

...Arawaka City 1863...

Two weeks have passed since the events of Arata and Souta, now the Shogun's forces have even one month in the city of Arakawa, but they still have not found any of its residents. They were all just made dizzy by the back bandits who often appear in the city of Arakawa, Arakawa, the Shogun's forces had longed for their families and persuaded the Shogun to return to Edo. However, the Shogun always refused the persuasion of his troops, because he still believed that the citizens of Arakawa City were still there and they were waiting for help from the Shogun.

"Shogun-sama, let's just go back to Edo, and have the other troops take turns to stand guard here. " Say the soldiers who are still trying to persuade the Shogun to go home.

"No! If we do that, we are wasting our time. We better settle down here and keep looking for clues!" Answer the Shogun firmly.

The troops could only remain silent because it was the 5th time the Shogun answered like that.

"Hahaha, you better give up. " Say Arata while laughing at his soldiers.

"If you want to hurry home, mending now you are looking for clues as to where the disappearance of the citizens of this city. " Said Izumi sarcastically who was cleaning her horse with Arata.

The soldiers immediately chuckled to hear it, they all immediately returned to do their duty.

"Hahaha, if you're the one who's talking, they'll just shut up, Izumi. " Say Arata

"Of course, 'cause I'm not as soft as you, Arata. " Izumi replied cynically.

"SHOGUN-GAMA! "

Suddenly there was a very loud scream, the Shogun, Izumi, and Arata immediately looked for the source of the scream.

"Where did that scream come from?!" Asked the surprised Shogun while looking around him.

"Shogun-sama, those soldiers are screaming! " Shouted Arata while pointing to the three warriors who were riding horses leading to their place.

Arriving at the Shogun's place the soldiers immediately descended from his horse and bowed their heads in front of the Shogun

"What's wrong? Was there an attack from the enemy? " Task the Shogun staring at the soldier.

"We found some kids in the woods! " Answer the soldier.

Without much further questioning, the Shogun quickly climbed up the warrior's horse and went into the forest.

"Shogun-sama, wait for us! " Shouted Izumi and Arata while riding on the horses of the two soldiers

"Oi, you two come with us, and you tell all the troops to get ready!" Izumi told the two men to get on his horse and told one soldier to tell the other.

The four of them immediately went after the Shogun who was far ahead.

Meanwhile, in the woods. The soldiers there were taking care of the little ones to calm them down. The soldiers brought the children into the tent and told the four children to eat. The soldiers were talking outside the tent about the four children.

"Have they calmed down? "

"It was, but after eating they immediately slept in the tent. "

"Good, we just have to wait for the Shogun's arrival. "

Suddenly, the sound of footsteps came, the soldiers came to him because they thought the Shogun was coming.

"Hey, what is the Shogun? " Ask a soldier who came out of the tent

"Of course it is, Shogun-sama. Who else will come here? " Answer the soldier who was waving his hand.

However, suddenly there was an arrow that hit the soldier who was waving his hand.

'ARGH!'

"Hey, what are you doing!" Shouted the troops.

Once seen more clearly, it turns out it is not the same Shogun.

Woi, it's not Shogun-sama! But it's a mountain bandit!!!

Suddenly a lot of people riding horses came and they were all fully armed.

"We should be able to hold on until Shogun-sama comes! " The soldiers shouted.

Fighting began, but the Shogun's forces were defeated in just a short time because they were outnumbered.

"Don't let anyone live! This is a direct order from him!"

"Boss! We're the four kids.!"

"Good! Quickly bring those four little ones! "

"Good, Boss!"

"It turns out that there are also benefits to wearing the clothes of this royal army, surely these foolish troops thought that we were their friends. Haha." The bandit boss muttered with a small laugh.

"Everything get ready we're going to get away from this disgusting place! "

After hearing the orders from their boss, the bandits immediately boarded their horses and also brought to the four little ones.

On the other hand, the Shogun and the others arrived in the forest a little.

"Why do I feel so bad?" Shogun murmured who suddenly broke out in cold sweat. Because his feelings were already very unpleasant, he also added speed to his horse. Izumi and Arata who are behind the Shogun are confused by the Shogun's behavior.

Arata and Izumi stared at each other on the horse, they immediately caught up with the Shogun as soon as possible because they were worried about the Shogun

"Shogun-sama! Wait for us!" Shouted Izumi and Arata who were chasing after him. But the Shogun did not respond to the shouts of the two of them, Shogun instead continued to increase the speed on his horse and left Izumi and Arata behind

The Shogun got first in front of the forest, he immediately got off his horse and went into the forest.

"Everything! I've come already! Where y'all?! " Shouted the Shogun who was a little panicked as he continued walking. But no one answered him, the Shogun became even more panicked, a lot of sweat started to come out of the Shogun's body.

"Where are they? Then where's their tent why didn't I see it from earlier? " Murm the Shogun who is panicking and confused.

The Shogun accidentally saw the footprints on the ground, he immediately followed the footprints.

While being focused on following the footprints, suddenly the Shogun stumbled by something and it almost made him fall.

"What's that?! I didn't see it because I was too focused!" Shogun shouted while looking behind him.

Instantly the Shogun's face immediately turned pale, it turned out that what made him stumble was the hands of his own soldiers who were already lying helplessly on the ground.

"Soldier! What the hell has happened?! " Task the Shogun who is shocked and panicked. He immediately stared at the puncture wound that was in the soldier's stomach. However, the soldier was already dead due to a puncture wound in his stomach

"Who attacked you?! " Shouted the angry Shogun while looking around him

Shogun saw the tent, he immediately ran to the tent. The Shogun's face immediately pale to see many of his soldiers who were dead, because they were attacked by someone.

"Who is the one who dares to attack my soldiers?! " The Shogun was very angry.

"Shogun-sama?! Are you all right?! " Tanya Arata and Izumi who were running wanted to approach the Shogun.

"ARATA! IZUMI! " Shogun Shouts.

"Yes, Shogun-sama!" Respond in unison to Izumi and Arata.

As Arata and Izumi fell silent behind the Shogun, they were both shocked to hear the Shogun's voice for the first time.

"Both of you I command you to find the one who dares to do this! If you've found bring that man to me! You understand?! " Said the Shogun who was already very angry

"READY! SHOGUN-GAMA!" Answer them both firmly.
