Fujin entered the diner and inn and chose a bench that was considered strategically located from other visitors. While the two soldiers who always accompanied him also took another table that was near the servants.
As usual, this store is always crowded with visits from samurai, nobles, and travelers who decide to just rest or stay overnight accompanied by call women. Because this place also provides such things.
For several hours Fujin spent in this place just to enjoy her food while looking for some information from the people around her. But he found nothing.
"Hallo ..." Suddenly a woman in shaky clothes approached Fujin with a haunting voice.
"I've been watching you for a while. Are you looking for someone?" she showed off her sweet smile and looked at Fujin confidently, as she had no idea Fujin was a prince.
Yeap, Fujin's current appearance looks more like a samurai and isn't wearing some fancy stuff. So that almost everyone thinks Fujin is an ordinary knight.
Fujin did not answer and ignored the woman. He finished the last mouthful of his dojo fish then started to enjoy his drink.
"My name is Kagome. I can help you. I can give you any information you want. As long as you .. give me the pay! I can also accompany you to sleep .." said the woman trying to seduce Fujin.
"Can you give me any information? Are you sure?" fujin asked starting to turn his gaze to look at the woman.
"Of course I'm sure. I know enough about what's going on in this area. As long as you can pay a high fee, then I will give you all the information." said the woman quickly.
"All right! I'm looking for someone right now. If you manage to inform me of his information and whereabouts, then I will pay a huge fee for you. A thousand gold coins! How's it?" suhut Fujin do not want to linger anymore.
"A thousand gold coins? Are you serious? Is that really you?" said the beautiful woman sparkled and looked at Fujin from toe to head, as if still not believing it.
"Of course I'm serious. Now tell me. Have you ever seen a group of people or someone from the hidden tribe of Ainu?" fujin asked, not wasting any more time.
"Ainu's hidden tribe?" kagome muttered instantly turning her expression into seriousness.
"Yes! Do you know anything about them?" investigate Fujin as if he could read Kagome's mind knowing about the hidden tribe of Ainu.
"Actually a few days ago I had seen some of them visiting and staying at this place. But suddenly they had already left this inn before the rental deadline ended. They left in a hurry. And a day later I just heard the news that one of them accidentally harmed the fourth princess of the Fumio empire. Maybe they're scared and hiding."
Obviously Kagome tried to remember the figure of some girl he had met a few days ago.
"Actually they are not natives of our territory. I talked to two of his servants. They crossed from the sea of borders and arrived in Japan." added Kagome recollecting his conversation with the Ainu hidden tribe's servant.
"really. Then do you know where they are right now?" sela Fujin is impatient.
Kagome shook her head slowly, but she took out something from behind the contrasting and shaky colored clothes.
Fujin received the object and began to look at it.
"The bee's prayer wheel of an antique pure hand? A pure thing that belongs only to the Ainu tribe which is a tribe outside Japan?" gumam.Fujin concluded.
"Eitherway. I just saw something like that for the first time. And I don't really understand it. But the energy of that thing is a little different" Kagome said, not understanding.
"alright. Thank you! And this is your pay!" fujin said giving a large bag of black cloth filled with gold pieces for the woman.
Fujin immediately rushed to leave the tavern and inn while carrying the pure and antique thing. The two soldiers who knew of Fujin's movements also immediately followed him leaving this place.
The screams from Kagome were completely ignored by Fujin. He still left this place.
"Huft .. when I gave him little information. I didn't even help her at all because I couldn't tell her whereabouts. But he still paid me with enough gold coins. I am so lucky today!! Meeting a kind and generous young man ..." muttered Kagome full of twinkle while examining the contents of the bag containing the gold coins.

On the fringes of a waterfront, Fujin grabs a pristine antique that belongs to the hidden Ainu tribe. There's no clue what Fujin managed to find.
But all of a sudden the antiques began to emit a very dim light when Fujin began to travel around the empty land filled with rocks and trees.
The light was actually very faint and almost invisible. But Fujin realized that. Until finally he decided to keep walking around. The light on the antique was still dim for a while.
But as Fuji approached a high rock and extended to a few kilos, the light grew brighter. This makes Fujin think if the antique object has a strong enough bond with the owner. And it will emit a brighter light if it gets closer to the master. That was the conclusion of Fujin's current thinking.
"This elongated rock has not the slightest gap for hiding place, Prince Fujin. They are not around this place" said Ieyasu after returning from carrying out Fujin's orders to check around the rocks.
"Yes, Prince Fujin. I also did not find a secret place along these rocks." said warrior Hidemitsu.
Fujin was silent for a while and then picked up the antique belonging to the Ainu hidden tribe. It was still emitting a brighter light.
Still lifting the antique, Fuji looked back at the elongated rocks.
"There must be something around this place. I need to find him!" he mumbled feeling very sure.
