I roamed around town, trying to find a job. Despite having my savings, I know that I won’t last a year with them in the capital. So, I’ll have to find myself a job that pays well in order to soon move onto my next location.
If I stay in one spot, who knows how long it will take my brother to find me. And there’s no way that I’m going back there again…
As I walked around, I suddenly saw a bunch of men dressed up fancily walking down the street. Seems like they are high-ranked vessels.
“Are you looking forward to the tournament today?” one said, grinning. Another one, who was smoking a pipe, shrugged his shoulders. “I don’t know. There won’t be any ladies, no doubt. After all, who could compete against a man for the position of Head of tbe Royal guard?”
Hold on, what? With that position not only comes power but a ton of good money. I then rushed up to the men and asked “Excuse me, what might you be talking about?”
One of them grinned. “The tournament that is to be held this afternoon to determine who will become the next head of the royal guard? Well, if you insist to enter it, boy, you’ll have to come to the palace gates and sign up. There’s an entry fee of five silver pieces.”
Palace gates, five pieces of silver. And its this afternoon? That doesn’t give me much time to prepare. I smiled at the men, thanking them with a bow before rushing off.
“I don’t know about that boy. He seems like he’s hiding something… what do you think, Chiba?” He shrugged his shoulders. “I don’t know, why are you asking me, Hiroto? Now, let’s get that drink before Lady Mimi tells us off.”
A few hours later, I had made my way up to the palace gates, where a long line of men were signing up and paying the entrance fee. When it came my turn, the man looked at me and frowned. “Take your hood off, laddie. No one needs to remain anonymous here.”
But if I do… then, the man from earlier stepped in and smiled at me with his snakey grin. “Never mind him. Put him down as Akatsuki. We’re acquaintances, aren’t we?”
Why was he helping me? I remained silent but the man couldn’t argue against this man. I paid my entrance fee and walked in, my staff and bags all on my back.
“You seem to be carrying your life around in that bag.” I looked at him sharply, unsure of his intentions. “That’s because I am. This is my life now.” The man smiled and put out his hand. “Chiba Tsubaki… and what might your name be, little missus?” So he knew that I was a woman…
“Why did you help me hide it?” He grinned. “I know better than to overestimate a woman. So why don’t you show those men what you’re made of and I’ll be your patreon?”
My patreon… he’s going to bet on me to win? I looked at him, confused. “What if I lose and put all of your money to the street?” He smiled. “Nothing will happen at all. I just have a hunch that you’re not like those arrogant men.”
