The Value of Sake : Saving Kii Sake Brewery

The Value of Sake : Saving Kii Sake Brewery

Sake is actually one of the Japanese alcoholic drink made from rice. So, in the virtual world of Tsushima, the Mongols were attacking the Kii Sake Brewery, which was located in Azamo. It's a favorite drink of Jin Sakai. He won't let the Mongols overtake it! So today, I travel south of Ariaki Bamboo Strike to meet Kii.

I reached a pond that was actually named after Kii. So I think, the owner of this land should be Kii. It was dawn when I reached the place. From a distance, I can hear a command shout from a woman, desperate and worried. They were preparing and loading the chart full of sakes.

Kii actually recognized me when I arrived and asked if everything was okay, then invited me to drink tea. That's a bit weird, but I just follow her into the house nearby. There must be something, because, a brew master inviting a samurai to drink tea is a bit sus.

When we were inside the house, she apologized to me for her suspicious behavior, she didn't want to be overheard by Mongols who might have ears on the outside. Then she told me everything. In short, the Mongols come here every morning, and demand a chart full of sake. This time, I will kill the Mongol who come to take the sake away.

So the plan was that Kii would take her workers to hide in a safe place, while I would wait for the Mongols to come. It's funny to see that they went to two separate places. Three with Kii and the other two that look like a couple run in different directions. What why? haha

I waited until the sun was rising. Suddenly, I heard a conversation, that, for me, I could not understand a single word. That's the Mongol. They are coming closer.

When they check the chart, I just walk in and say hi. They were not friendly beings. They immediately take out their weapon and start charging towards me. Argh, this place was full of mud. My attire will be full of mud and blood after this.

For a moment, I just danced with the attacker, didn't take out my sword just yet. Just dodging around back and forth. It was fun.

But the dance has to stop. It's time to get serious, for the sake of sake! First blood!

The shieldmen was down. I'm getting better at switching the suitable stance. For a shieldmen, Water Stance is the best.

To beat swordmen easily, Stone Stance. And I can see a shieldmen was ready to charge forward.

I quickly switched to Water Stance, ting tang ting, zap! now, the shieldmen down, even before the body of the dead swordmen that I just killed, dropped on the ground.

There were more coming. Now, there was a spearman approaching.

But, I rushed forward, and killed the archer first. They have become really annoying lately.

Then the nearby target was the shieldman and the spearman.

More Mongols coming. That's wave 3! The axeman got to tasted his back's blood first. While an archer keeps disturbing me at the back.

After the axeman down, I was actually targeting the archer first, but this shieldman come to interrupt my movement.

The archer tried to move away to keep the distance from me, but I kept pushing and finally killed him.

Two shieldmen come at me at once. The other one kept trailing behind me while the other met his end.

How much sake does this fatty drink!? Look at that bloods coming out from his tummy! That's insanely a lots of bloods!

Another wave in coming! Their archer surely done his job well. My arrow deflection skill was not bad either!

I took out my bow and shot the hornet nest, which was just above the archer. He got stung by the hornets to death.

Another runaway archer died by my sword.

Now the dual blade met his end, meanwhile, look at that giant! He still has time to look at the chart for the sake! xD

Giant is a brute attacker. So I am using the Moon Stance to deal with him.

Heavenly Strike 1st strike! Perfectly hit, but he still standing!

Heavenly Strike 2nd strike! Giant still not down!

This was incredible, the giant actually dodged my 3rd Heavenly Strike!

Here comes the third!

Fatality! The third strike cut his right hand and ended his life!

The moment I finished off the last attacker, Kii suddenly appeared and congratulate me.. I was like.. wait.. what? How come she was standing there, in front of me, when I still holding my sword? The giant just fell down a second ago!

Kii want me to stay because there will be Mongols come here if they found out that their men still not returned. I ask Kii and the other to move and stay at Golden Temple. They will be safe there.

Before I left, I took some more memorable photos around the place. The last picture is really odd xD

So, that's all for today, thank you so much for your support! Until the next tale of Tsushima! Have a nice day!
