Naples, Italy:
Ryujiro: "This place looks so vibrant and colorful."
Zhang Liang: "It's dark from the inside. We're in Naples. The southern part.
Mafia and thefts are common here."
They roam around and run into some gangsters who show guns to them.
"Hey foreigners. Would you like us to carry your stuff?"
Vasilisa interprets.
Ryujiro: "Huh? Seriously?"
Ryujiro takes out his Kurogane.
"Your little guns won't work on our armours."
They ran away.
Ryujiro: "Huhh.. Losers.
We have to find the king. Victor Emmanuel II.
He betrayed my mom.. In the Samurai Massacre."

Kyoto, Japan
Victor: "Lady. You know English?"
-"Y-.. Yes.. I do."
Clara Kurogane.
Mother of Ryujiro and the wife of Ryu Kurogane.
Victor: "I heard that your husband died. Alexander killed him, huh?"
Clara: "Who are you.. I have nobody left.. except for my son. Will you please save us.. I wanna go back to my brothers.. My home. With my son."
Ryujiro was there, hugging the blood-covered Clara.
Victor: "Don't worry. I'll save you. Come, sit on my horse behind me."
Clara and Ryujiro climbed on his horse and he started taking them away.
He threw Ryujiro half the way.
Clara: "What the hell are you doing!!!?"
He took Clara in a quiet place and started to undress her.
Ryujiro was injured akd weak, trying to get back slowly crawling in that hellish looking place with fire all around.
Clara: "Hmm. Bastard thought I'm some whore like his mother."
Victor was covered in blood on the ground.
Clara put her sword back in the sheath and starting going.
"Ryujiro.. I'm coming.. Wait for me."
She got stabbed from behind by the almost dead Victor Emmanuel.
Clara: "I.. I thought you died. You coward.."
Victor: "You almost killed me.. I didn't expect you to be this strong."
Clara: "So I'm gonna die here.. I hope Ryujiro lives a better life..
And wherever those two guys are.. I hope they.. stay safe and happy together.
I'm coming to you.. Honey."
"I don't know what happened to him.. and my mom after that.
That bastard will pay."
