S?s? and her troops return to Shao after defeating the army of bandits. While there, she meets Rinrin when she is suddenly attack by Bach? who claim S?s? killed her father, Bat? before being subdued by Rinrin & S?s? guards. Aisha, after hearing the news, meets S?s? & ask her to spare & release Bach?. She agrees, on the condition that Aisha sleeps with her tonight. However, their night together is interrupted when an Assassin tries to kill S?s? but Aisha manages to save S?s?. Thankful, S?s? frees Bach? for Aisha. Kakou Ton, S?s?'s commander, while escorting Aisha, reveals the truth of what happen to Bach? father. On the night he died, Bat? was ordered to have a match with S?s?, but she refuse since he was too drunk to fight. Embarrass, he left the palace where he unfortunately fell off his horse seriously injured. Ton & her men were there with him & she promise to keep his secret on how he died. However somebody did see them and mistakenly believed that S?s? sent her troops to kill Bat?. S?s? decided not to do anything about the rumor, since she wanted to protect Bat? honor to make it seem like he died a warrior's death (A warrior who died drunk falling from his horse is considered an embarrassment.). Bach? refuse to believe it and accuses Ton as a liar, who is insulted and challenges Bach? to defend her honor. Before they began their match, Bach? realize that Ton was telling truth when she notice her fighting stance & remembering her father's words that "A noble warrior with no secrets or regrets, will show it in their fighting stance". Realizing her mistake, she breaks down and cries. In the end, Bach? decides to return to her home to tell her people the truth, while Rinrin is confident they will meet again.
