How to Complete the Midnight Revenge Mission

1. Starting Off:

   - Head to Nijo Castle and chat with Yoshinobou Tokugawa. He’s ready to leave on his errand, so when the option appears, just choose, "Fine with me."

2. Exploring Kyoto:

   - After leaving, you’ll follow Tokugawa around the city. But soon, you’ll run into some trouble! 🚨 A group of three men will block your way, asking for half your money.

   - Here, you have a choice! If you say “He doesn’t seem to know you,” you can deepen your bond with Yoshinobou. If they demand your money again, show off your skills: if you have Speechcraft: Liar, say, “We have come at the order of the Shogun!” This way, you can avoid a fight and keep Tokugawa happy.

3. Time to Gamble! 🎲:

   - If everything goes well, you’ll continue to follow Tokugawa, who will take a sneaky turn into... a gambling den!

   - You’re going to play Odds and Evens here. Buy some tokens if you need them, and start betting on the dice. Once Tokugawa is ready to leave, select “Leave Gambling Den,” but don’t forget to grab the Veiled Edge Banner inside—just in case you need it later!

4. Unexpected Trouble:

   - When exiting, you’ll be confronted by the Kurosu Clan, who are looking for a fight! Prepare yourself and protect Tokugawa!

   - Start with the three regular samurai; they’re not too tough. Once they’re gone, more enemies will appear. Keep going until you face four Kurosu ninjas. These guys are tougher, so switch to a Jin or Shinobi combat style. Use careful movements, watch your health, and strike when you see an opening for a Critical Hit!

5. The Aftermath:

   - Once you defeat the ninjas, have a chat with Tokonobou, where he’ll reveal he planned this whole thing to lure out the rebels. Choose any response, but when he addresses your Kurosu connection, say, “Weren't you worried I might be out to get you myself?” This will strengthen your bond.

6. Ending the Mission:

   - After your talk, try leaving again. You’ll encounter a mysterious old man who knows you and brings up your old master. Choose any response, and once he leaves, your mission will come to an end!
