Episode Title:
The Righteous Man.
Episode Description:
Kuon and Ukon enjoy their Amamunii at the inn whilst Haku is astonished at Kuon's insatiable appetite. The inn keeper finds Haku and in return for fixing the watermill, which we learn was a week ago, adds bonus to his pay. Haku's remarkable aptitude is hinted when he correctly calculates his pay without effort surprising the inn keeper and Kuon. Intrigued, Kuon tests Haku's arithmetic abilities which he passes with ease. Thus Kuon concludes that Haku is more suited with tasks involving his mind rather than physical labour. Shortly, the villagers gather around a group of injured field workers who were attacked by insects called Gigiri. Kuon tends to their wounds which catches Ukon's attention. Later, Ukon informs Kuon that he was instructed to get rid of Gigiris by the village elders and invites her to act as a healer in his group. Kuon accepts under the condition that Haku is allowed to tag along. Ukon obliges then the group sets off on their quest. Maroro, a scholar and a noble, is then introduced who is also part of the expedition. Upon arriving at their destination, the group begins laying traps to lure the Gigiris...
