Also, If you're going to say it's wrong at least say what you actually think it means.
Oh and by the way I'm not pretending. If I make a mistake then it's a mistake with my understanding of the language, or you're making a mistake. You haven't told me which ones yet so please do for those too.

Isn't it 王子の「味方」(mikata:your friend/on your side)? (not 「日未方」)?
爺＝a senior retainer....? (but in this case he's calling himself '爺' and the translation'd be just 'I/my'.)
...Sorry if I'm saying something off the point....>//<
