Summary[]
Ka Ryo Ten notices Muta's blow dart pipe on the ground and picks it up thinking it is the perfect weapon to use. With no ammunition though the weapon would be useless, Ka Ryo Ten walks over to Muta's body to see if he has any poison darts on him. Ka Ryo Ten discovers Muta isn't dead, he can't move however and continues to breathe his last breaths. Muta gives Ka Ryo Ten tranquillizer darts and a warning, run away and stop travelling with Ei Sei revealing that king has no allies and will eventually die. Ka Ryo Ten reminds him that Ei Sei has the support of prime minister Ryo Fui. Muta tells Ka Ryo Ten they are deadly mistaken, and that Ryo Fui isn't their ally. Ei Sei holds a strategic meeting, Heki explains to Shin that Ryo Fui and his army are currently attacking the north-west of Wei and that he will have to come back with his 200,000 army soon.
In the state of Wei, a soldier informs Ryo Fui that a messenger from Ei Sei has come. Ryo Fui gives orders that the messenger be captured and executed.
Ka Ryo Ten enters the meeting, asking Ei Sei and Shou Bun Kun if it's true that Ryo Fui is on the side of Sei Kyou, Ei Sei reveals that Ryo Fui has been waiting for this to happen, Ei Sei suspects Ryo Fui of wanting to become the king also. He expects Ketsu Shi and Ryo Fui will battle for the capital, Ei Sei agrees it will be very hard to find allies, so that they all must prepare for a fight to the death very soon, because he needs to return to the capital to prevent all-out war in Qin.

Heki asks who Ka Ryo Ten is, Ka Ryo Ten mentions the mountain people and moments later Shou Bun Kun explains that he's found a way to get allies.
