Crazy Plans and Desires



Sokhem san Sovanara accidentally saw three figures of the Japanese swordsman. Their stature and appearance were too obvious. They walked along the banks of the river and the market with full weapons.


A pair of Khmer lovebirds titled Feet of the Hand of the Death God seems to have succeeded in chasing Jayaseta's entourage, although they are still not sure very well. A dozen of their troops have also been deployed to various directions to search for the whereabouts of their prey.


However, the arrival of the Three Gods made Sokhem and Sovanara upset and offended. As part of the Nine Swordsmen of the New World, Konoshi Hidetada, Arima Oda and Paulo Omura should refrain from staying in Ayutthaya. It was not that this Pair of Death God's Hands felt they were unable to defeat and kill Jayaseta and his entourage, instead, that Sokhem and Sovanara were unwilling to share the glory with the three Japanese hitmen.


"Jepun shithead! Self-respect and victory like this they are very difficult to follow the rules" muttered Sokhem.


Sovanara, the wife, looked at her husband, looking into his eyes, as if giving a certain signal.


"Why are you looking at me like that?" Sokhem.


"No. I didn't mean anything" replied Sovanara. However, there was a thin streak of smile painted on his lips.


"You want us to get rid of Omura and his friends?" exclaim Sokhem restrained.


Sovanara pressed both her shoulders.


"That's up to you. To my knowledge, you have long wanted to get them out of the land where we are and destroy them when possible" Sovara said casually.


Sokhem shook his head.


"That's right. But, we are facing Jayaseta and the warriors who are accompanying him. Not to exalt them, but we will run out of energy and power if we have to waste it for them" Sokhem said.


Sovanara fixed his headband and touched both handles of his short sword, then said indifferently, "Who said it should be us? Besides, we still haven't found Jayaseta and his entourage here."


Sokhem scrunched his forehead. He tried to feel the meaning of the words of his partner's swordsman.


"You sure, Sovanara?"


"Or, if you doubt. We'll finish this search first. If we meet Jayaseta at the same time as Paulo Omura's group, we work with them. So, the job will be done faster and we all get a name for beating Jayaseta together" Sovarana said.


The last words were spoken very slowly. It was intentionally said that way to mock Sokhem's pride.


"Sat! I'm not cooperating with them!" exclaim Sokhem.


"Or ...," continued Sovanara. "We're looking forward to them here, right now. While we find out where Jayaseta is. We don't have to do it straight away. So, one day we'll both be enough to get the job done."


Sokhem sighed. The shadow of a Pair of Death God's Hands finished off Jayaseta and brought his head in front of the Three Step Gods and all the members of the New World was very tempting.


Sokhem called one of his men who was with him to find Jayaseta.


"Gather our members secretly. I will give you a new command, and this is the direct command of the New World. By law the strict rules were written, the Japanese who were supposed to guard Ayutthaya were now visible in this place."


The subordinate nodded. It seems he also had seen the troupe of three Japanese warriors.


"You don't have to come together and see me and Sovanara again. You don't need to know who they are either. The Japanese were clearly ordered by the head of a Japanese army group to join the search for Jayaseta. We can't let them!"


"You want to kill them, Sokhem?" said the subordinate.


Sokhem deliberately did not mention the third title of the Japanese swordsman. He does not want his troops to be afraid. He also knew very well that the Three Gods Iai would be able to kill many of his troops. However, without knowing who they were, his troops must have gained spirit and courage.


After all, injuring one of them was enough. He and Sovanara still have time and opportunity to carry out their goals and duties.


What a crazy plan and desire!
