Episode Title:
The Shadow Wielder's Apprentice.
Episode Description:
Shu and Blue Dragon are sent to the nearest town to find a blacksmith to make a replacement part for the Mechat and also to get supplies. On their way to the nearest village, Shu and Blue Dragon save a boy named Tonto from local bandits whose jewels were taken from Tonto. Upon arriving in the village, Shu meets Tonto's sister who happens to be a blacksmith. Shu has some trouble when Tonto steals tomatoes, potatoes, and apples from three local farmers and Shu had to pay for those. Shu and Tonto get into trouble with Tonto's sister when she finds out that Shu is a Shadow Wielder and Tonto had been stealing again. After dodging her hammer before she collapses in sorrow, Shu learns that Tonto's sister hates Shadow Wielders after recurring attacks by Shadow Wielders from Gran Kingdom. When asked why Tonto wants to become a Shadow Wielder, Tonto's sister states that Gran Kingdom returned last year with Ivanov and Gustav demanded tribute. Shu and Tonto's sister get word from one of the farmers that the local bandits have captured Tonto. Shu and Tonto's sister managed to find their hideout as the bandits use a tank and robots they stole from Gran Kingdom to attack Shu and Blue Dragon. Due to Tonto's sister not liking Shadow Wielders, Shu is easily taken down by the bandits and Blue Dragon causes them to retreat. After recuperating, Shu finally gets that replacement part for the Mechat and defeats the bandits before rejoining with the others.
