teikoku of the kean episode one

(Rico Alvares in the distance)

Peace was restored to shōbō-shi.

And a time for rebuilding and healing began.

The deaths caused by the surma, will.

Felt forever.

1807s jitsu jikan

*Hajime snoring*

(Rico alvares)

Hajime are yo-.

H-HAJIME?!.

(hajime)

Uh ah Y-Yes exactly!

S-so you see w-what this means rico.

(Rico alvares)

*sigh* hajime…

Were you sleeping during this-

(Hajime)

Look here!

Where do you think that the last dual took place?

(Rico alvares)

Mount shori.

(Hajime)

Right!

Most rumours, including these 1807s jitsu jikan, fail to state.

That the duel took place in mount shori.

(Rico Alvares)

Alright..go on…

(Hajime)

I've heard rumours that a lot of people went missing even though there was no presence.

Being the naturally curious scholar that I am.

I sent a few scouts.

But that was two week ago.

(Rico Alvares)

And…

What was their report?

(Hajime)

There was no report!

None ever returned!

And why do you think that is rico?!

(Rico Alvares)

I'm not- i'm not entirely sure-

(Hajime)

It's the akai and aoi hito, Rico, the akai and aoi hito!

(Rico Alvares)

You think that the akai and the aoi hito are at mount shori?

(Hajime)

Exactly! 

I'm aware you've been hunting down akai and aoi ever since the enjō senō ended. 

So I brought you here to inform you of this lead.

(Rico Alvares)

It has been years since I lost the trail of the akai and aoi.

I should ride to mount shori.

And see for myself.

(Hajime)

Well… I want to join your investigations.

Although I'm no chronicler.

I feel like my duty is to record what information we find.

I would...

Also wish to see the fate of the others that I sent.

(Rico alvares) 

There is a chance we'll encounter the akai and aoi hito.

And who knows what we find.

(Hajime)

Fear not Rico.

Because I can fight…

Wait? Where is my sword?

Ah! There we go.

(Rico Alvares)

*sigh* very well.

Come on.

Most likely this was all a misunderstanding.

*Rico alvares and hajime babbling through their journey*

(Hajime)

This is where I sent the scouts rico.

(Rico alvares)

Someone was here...

Recently.

I found their supply.

(Hajime)

That's odd.

Why would someone leave their belongings where others might find them?

(Rico alvares)

*sigh* because they are still here…

*rico and hajime being surrounding* 

*esarime approaching*

(Esarime andāson)

Rico alvares…

I heard many things about you.

(Rico)

And I heard nothing about you.

(Esarime)

Oh I know.

And I am quite sure of that.

So allow me to introduce myself.

My name is esar-rime an-dā-son.

As for you rico alvares, In fact I know who you are.

Kishi.

I've always hated you and your sword.

Your sword slaughtered my people.

(Eddie William)

Hey, here you go.

(Ash)

Eddie, I love you know that.

(Eddie)

*blush* I do.

(Mr.leeve)

Alright class.

Today that we are learning about.

Sukiruuuu and manichiiiii.

The Sukiru are sources of power for the shōbō-shi clan.

The colors of the sukiru do not have anything to do with the clans and respective colors.

However they do signify the four orders of sukiru:

Kōgeki sukiru(which specialize in attack - they can channel through weapon such as sword and staffs), shīrudo sukiru (which specialize in defense), supīdosukiru (which specialize in moving around), nenriki sukiru (are like telekinesis which specialize moving the sukiru, object and living things).

Members of different clans can use sukiru that are different colors from them.

The strongest of sukiru are mainichi, and there is one mainichi for each order of sukiru.

A user can only wield 2 sukiru - one of each type.

Which means that a shōbō-shi cannot wield multiple sukiru of the two types(unless they wield mainichi, which grants the user access to all sukiru within that category).

Alright next is jig-

*bell ring*

(Mr.leeve)

Alright class is dismissed.

*school over*

(Mark)

So you wanna go skating today.

(Ash)

Nah, remember that I have a job today.

Don't want to be late, okay.

(Mark)

Alright.

*ash enter juste workshop*

(Ash)

Hello, someone here.

Mmm, maybe I came way too early.

*lights on*

(Rico)

Welcome to the Rico office.
