Assignment Event: Conqueror of the Changing Times Employment

(Yaaawn...) Man, this is boring. Turns out having nothing to do but eat and sleep gets real old, real fast.

If you're that bored, why not do some exercise? I'll even instruct you myself.

You mean in Chinese martial arts? No thanks. Not my style.

Though while we're on the subject, do you think you could do your stomping thing a little more quietly?

No, sorry. This is an essential part of my daily routine. I'm afraid you'll just have to make do somehow.

Is that so?

Oda Kippoushi, the Fool of Owari... I've heard stories.

I can understand why this one was too much for Owari alone to contain.

It's not just the floor. The whole jail is on the verge of collapsing thanks to Li Shuwen's training regimen.

？！

Oh, hey! It's Fujimaru of Chaldea!

I'm just gonna ask: You sure you can't use us in your army?

I'm gonna die of boredom if I spend one more day in here with nothing to do but eat and sleep.

What do you think, Fujimaru? Perhaps you could entrust them with one of the Chaldea clan's castles?

Now that's what I like to hear, Dragon of Echigo! While I'm at it, maybe I'll help take over the other provinces!

Hmm, I dunno. I get the sense that if we leave this one to their devices, we'll just end up in another war. And yes, I get the irony of ME saying that.

Not to worry. If it comes to that, I'll just let my spear do the talking, and that'll be that.

Wahahahaha! No wonder you're known as Echigo's god of war! That sounds like a good time to me!

What about you, Li Shuwen? Would you be willing to help us as well?

Of course. I only opposed you in the first place in order to repay the debt I owed young Oda here for food and lodging.

If you can forgive me for that, I would be happy to lend you my services once again.

You really just fight with your bare hands, old timer? I don't see how that's gonna do us much good on the battlefield.

Oh, I can also use a spear if I have to. Either way, I'm sure I can be of more use than you, brat.

Huh!? Who're you calling a brat, you old geezer!?

Tch. Fine, but be ready! Later, I'm gonna serve you the tastiest goddamn cup of tea you've ever had in your life!

Thank you, Master. Once again, my fists are yours to command.

？！

Sweet! Then it's settled!

So hey, if you're gonna give me a castle, mind giving me the one closest to the enemy? Gives me a perfect excuse to invade them if they make the first move!

You know, there's something about this me that really takes me back to my youth.

I bet!

I've never been much for commanding people, but I do excel at breaking them.

Just point me towards who you want broken, and I shall see that it is done.

Li Shuwen pledged his loyalty to you. (You can now choose him as an NPC.)

You know, I've actually never served someone else before. I gotta say, I'm excited about it! Wahahahaha!

Thanks for letting me join your clan, Master of Chaldea!

Oda Kippoushi pledged loyalty to you. (You can now choose them as an NPC.)
