Illusion of Blood Page #3

they seem like a dream.

I long forthem...

Still, he has important work to do.

Yes.

He must avenge father,

so I cannot complain.

You're right.

So you're still waiting for Osode?

It's like an engagement...

It's a pleasure waiting

for her to yield to me.

Welcome.

Sake.

I'm surprised. It seems a stupid idea.

That goes to show you're an amateur.

How can you put up with it?

I've got an adequate alternative here.

He's so impatient.

I see.

What do you mean 'I see'?

Why don't you make up your mind?

Ito's in the service of a great lord.

He'd get you a position,

if you marry his daughter.

Accept the divine favour of Kwannon.

Let me alone. I won't ask your help.

Talking big.

Fool!

To succeed, one must be a rascal

if need be.

This sword's not for show.

It's dangerous. I know. Put it away.

You're only after a girl,

but my object's a big fief.

Is that so now?

Help me please. When you get it.

Very well.

Empty talk.

It's Oume's nurse.

What I promised you...

the family's secret medicine.

My lady is waiting for you tonight.

Please do not forget.

Dizzy?

No, I am all right.

You are back?

I was dozing.

The baby's asleep for a change?

Yes.

It is so hot, he is being difficult.

I know it bothers you, but please...

It's nothing.

Sometimes I have a fit of temper.

Think nothing of it.

Yes.

Are you... going out again.

Yes, someone's waiting for me.

Good news, Oiwa.

I may find a position with a lord soon.

Really?

Is that why you're going out?

I did not know, so...!

Oh yes, I wanted to give you

this medicine. That's why I returned.

To think I almost forgot.

Medicine?

Good for women.

Thank you!

Drink it now.

Wait. Your haori... Haori. A half coat

designed to be worn over a Kimono

Please return early.

I tell Lady Oume that

you have a wife and child.

But she turns deaf ears to me.

This way.

What is it?

Omaki...

Is that medicine really potent?

I'm not certain, it's only hearsay.

I haven't seen it work personally.

Don't worry.

Iyemon Tamiya is here.

My son-in-law? She's a wilful girl

but please take care of her.

Yes. I'm honoured.

Omaki.

Yes?

Did you give him

our family's secret medicine?

Yes, I did.

I see.

Oume asked me to see you got it.

A mere girl, but her obsession

is overwhelming...

Omaki, clean things up.

If your wife's face becomes ugly...

Oume thinks it will help you to decide.

Perhaps her nurse suggested the idea.

How can you say such a thing, Master...?

By the way, another thing

Oume asked me...

You would like to serve my lord?

Yes, please help me.

I promise to see about it.

Thank you. I am very grateful.

But for that, lyemon...

bring a betrothal gift if you ask for
