The discharge of the gun echoes through the courtyard, and the bullet impacts in the centre of her target's head, just like her opponent's shot did. Shintaro chuckles again at her response. "I'm unmarried, not a eunuch, and I only lie with men when I'm very, very drunk, and unable to tell the difference." He pulls down the trigger, and shoots the neck of his target. "Oh, so you're that buxom redhead. I think I heard Midori ordering some of the men to search for you a few days ago. You have a nickname: The Black Widow. Tell me, are you going to kill me if you win our little contest?"
While talking, Kyouka reloads her rifle. Grinning as she saw the man hit the neck on the target, "Hm? The black widow, eh? I like it." She cooed as she heard her nickname, "Though I've also heard, Whore, Slut, Bitch, Sword wielding prostitute, and the name I heard most frequently in Santila was, Flame haired woman." She added as she once again takes aim, firing as she tries to hit the target's nose or where it would be if it had one. "Unless you plan on standing where I'm aiming, I don't plan to. That wager is for duels. This is more of a sport." She said with a grin, as if she was taunting him to place a wager.
Inazuma return to door, to eavedrop for anything what they could talking. Maybe shogun's mother will say name of her "lover".
Her bullet flies through the target's mouth. "Well, if this is sport, why don't we lay down a little wager? I'm not particularly interested in dying so why don't we say that if you win, I'll give you my prized matchlock." He holds up his weapon, and Kyouka can see that it's beautifully inlaid and decorated, with well positioned sights and high quality firing mechanisms. "Of course, if I win, I get your usual prize." He fires almost without looking, hitting his target in the eye.
There doesn't seem to be any dirty talk between the rutting couple, and from the way the old man keeps slowly thrusting his hips, Inazuma gets the feeling that this could go on for a while. She does note that while she doesn't know his name, she would easily recognise him again, or his expensive kimono.
@Sabine Wren Yunah is called to the main hall of her father's manor house, dressed in full armour as she prepares to leave.
Kyouka's grin widens as he puts down his wager, "Very well, I could always use another gun." She said while reloading. Once her gun was ready, the redhead aims for the eye as well.
Inazuma decided it is enough of waiting time here, and She decided to give this information to her Lord. She sneak to his chamber and whisper to his ear. "Shogun mother is having sex with old, important guy. They didn't say names, but his kimono and jewelry are easy to recognise." She descripe them to Yokusoo and add. "I guess she made it to gain favor from him, not by lust or love." After that, she was leave the room and go look for preparation for journey. Following shadows, as always.
Her bullet flies true, hitting the target in the eye. "We'll see." He fires, and his bullet hits exactly where hers did, only on his target. "Last shot, you ready?"
Inazuma head to the roof, to see all guards and servants down there as they make work for getting ready to travel.
'Cousin should be more appropriate, I think,' Jian smiled at Chitsukiko, 'Continue our chat? Of course we can do that if it pleases you.' 'I have not,' Jian shook his head.
Jurobei gets up. "Your message is received - pass to the Shogun that I will be there in a moment." As he was left alone Jurobei starts putting his clothes on. @Regin34 When he is ready, he calls to where his kunoichi is hidden. "When the time comes, be sure to get rid of any ninja Shogun's mother might have brought along.
"Fufu. Of course I am." Kyouka said with a grin as she reloads. When her gun was ready, she aims, taking a deep breath as she aims for the target's neck. Then fires.
Inazuma lower her head. " As you wish my lord. I will take anything what necessary to complit my mission. " And She leave Inazuma slowly turn around with kunevai in one hand, hidden in her sheeve. "I hope your feet feeling fine my dear." She said and make stand ready to fight, excepting ninja from yesterday.
The shogun is waiting for him in her audience chamber, seated on a cushion on her elevated platform. "Ah, Lord Yokuboo. Are you ready to depart?"
Shintaro grins. "I'll have to show you how at some point. I'm heading to the capital today, if you want to come along." The lord's brother looks at Kyouka with a knowing grin, as the bullet hits the neck, exactly where she aimed it. "Looks like we have a draw." He pulls the trigger, hitting the target in the head. "We both had one miss.'
