Shanao
Benkei Musashibo, thank you for helping me.
Shanao
Now please, keep this matter to yourself.
Benkei was silent for a moment, before responding in a strained voice.
Benkei Musashibo
Benkei Musashibo
Shanao
Alright, let's go Shungen. We've got to get back to the temple.
Shungen
But...
Shungen was about to say something, but Benkei opened his mouth before he could speak.
Benkei Musashibo
Please wait!
Shanao
What is it?
Benkei Musashibo
Is that all?
Shanao
What do you mean?
Benkei Musashibo
I said, I understand and...and that's it? You're just going to let me go?
Shanao
You saved my life, so I take you at your word. That's all there is to it.
His eyes grew more serious as he continued to stare at me. Then, he slowly closed them.
Shanao
W-what?! What are you talking about?
Benkei folded his knees and bowed his head in front of me.
Benkei Musashibo
I see. In that case...
Benkei stared at me with urgent, serious eyes. His staff swayed, making a faint sound that echoed in the breeze.
Benkei Musashibo
Please allow me, Benkei Musashibo, to be your vassal!
Shungen
You?! Shanao's vassal!? You're the scoundrel who's been causing so much trouble in Kyoto!
Benkei Musashibo
That may be so, but I made up my mind when I found out the person who defeated me was Shanao, the youngest son of Genji!
Benkei Musashibo
I will not give up on this intention. I will continue to ask until you approve of me.
Shanao
But...why? Why would someone as powerful as you want to serve me?
Benkei Musashibo
No, I'm not as strong as you! You beat me within an inch of my life last night!
Benkei Musashibo
I know there is no other path for me, please, make me your vassal!
