Which excerpt from “My Lord Bag of Rice” best reflects the historical fact that Hidesato was a highly respected leader?
One day he sallied forth in search of adventures, for he had the nature of a warrior and could not bear to be idle.
On turning back he was much surprised to see that the monster dragon had entirely disappeared and in its place was a strange-looking man.
Hidesato felt very sorry for the Dragon King on hearing his story, and readily promised to do what he could to help him.
The whole family came and bowed down before the warrior, calling him their preserver and the bravest warrior in all Japan.
