Chapter 114 What Matters Is Desire
[The couple's trust in the priest's noble character made the couple believe in the priest without hesitation. 】

[They only guessed that the meaning of the priest's last smile...maybe it was accompanied by a gift, and there would be some well-meaning and not excessive teasing.

In this way, thinking of the other party many years later, you may still be able to smile because of the embarrassment at that time.

Therefore, not only did they not mind it, but they were also vaguely looking forward to it.

The first person to go to the priest's cabin was the husband.

After entering the room, the husband immediately showed a shocked expression on his face and even took a step back.

Because he could tell at a glance what the smiling priest was holding.That was the deepest desire in his heart, something he had never shown in front of his wife, but actually longed for.

-That's a knife.

It is the highest masterpiece of the forging family represented by his surname hundreds of years ago.

The priest gave him this priceless ancient relic, without asking him anything, and only said a word.

"...Friend, feel the presence of the spirit."

Holding the knife box, the husband left as if in a dream, but also in a daze. 】

[The next person to visit the priest is his wife.

The first moment she entered the door, her sight was completely occupied by a dreamy ruby.

A ruby ​​the size of a pebble lay in the priest's hand, with a perfect shape and sharp edges.The priest's palm shook, and it rolled slightly in the priest's hand. The smooth cut surface reflected the sunlight outside the window, shining so brightly that the wife could not open her eyes.

Even though she is not a vain woman, she is inevitably attracted to anything shiny and beautiful.

She just felt a little weird and couldn't believe it: Could this ruby... be a gift from the priest?

But she knew that her husband had obtained an antique of astonishing value, so at this moment, she couldn't help but raise her expectations.

But the priest waved to her, motioning for her to come closer.

The wife approached without warning, looking at the gem along the way, but her eyes gradually became blurred, and she lost consciousness after a few steps.

The priest carefully caught the woman who collapsed, carried her to the bed and helped her lie down.

He stood in front of the bed, and with a loving expression, he gently touched the woman's slightly bulging belly with his left hand.

Then, he picked up the ruby ​​with the two fingers of his right hand and gently placed it on the woman's abdomen.

——Like ripples on the water, his fingers and the ruby ​​sank into the woman's belly, all the way down to her entire wrist.

There was no spurt of blood, just a glistening white light at the junction.

Although the wife lost consciousness, she suddenly showed a painful expression.

The priest just looked calm, with his left hand behind his back and his right hand still operating something in the woman's belly, while muttering something.

"Can't love."

"Can't hate."

"Can't expect that."

"Because even if you just look forward to it... you will be entangled in this sinful world."

Then, he kept silent and just concentrated on the operation.

After an unknown amount of time, the priest finally withdrew his hand.

The red gem in his hand was gone, and the woman's bulging belly was also intact.

The priest gently pressed his palm on the lady's abdomen again and said softly: "Sleep and grow strong...but you must remember all of this in the end."]

[Then, the priest left.

The next day, the waiter found his wife unconscious in this vacant suite that had never been booked by anyone.

The husband woke up in the engine room below deck.He also couldn't remember anything, including how he got here or how he got the knife. 】

The two had completely forgotten that they had met a very special priest... and what they had done to them.

The couple got off the boat and returned to their normal lives]

[...It seems. 】

[Soon, both of them forgot about the fact that they had "suffered strange amnesia on the cruise ship".

In the following months, my wife's belly became more and more obvious, and the baby's birth day approached day by day.

The husband's behavior became increasingly weird.He became more and more indifferent to them, and his mind was gradually occupied by one thing - making knives.

Starting from a knife that he couldn't even remember where he got it from, he started learning frantically from scratch as he had never been exposed to the forging techniques of his ancestors, but he completely forgot about his family who should be concerned about it.

Day by day, the embryo in my wife's belly gradually took shape.

But her husband never appeared by her side.

He just stayed in his newly built workshop day and night, staring intently at the knife embryo in his hand, which was getting more and more formed with repeated practice. 】

[Finally, that day has come.The wife was pushed into the delivery room.At the same moment, the husband also threw the knife into the furnace and began to reforge it. 】

The last shot shows the knife melting.

But the sound was the baby's first cry.

——The movie ends here.

Although most of the "theater" is still shrouded in darkness, a gentle light falls on two seats.

Haiyuan immediately looked to his right and saw Yukinoshita Saya hugging her knees and curling up on the seat next to her.

It turned out that the incident was actually directed by the gardener. Hui Yuan was not particularly surprised by this.

In comparison, he is now more concerned about Yukinoshita Saya's thoughts after learning about her origin.

Yukinoshita Saya was still clenching his fingers with her left hand, and her right hand was hugging her bent legs. She was staring at the dimmed screen in ecstasy, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Xuezhi?" Hui Yuanchu called softly.

"Yeah." Yukinoshita Saya quickly responded, "So, senior. Where are we now? Are we still in my body?"

in vivo?It refers to the ruling domain.Not in the body of a human body, but in the body of an evil spirit body.

Hui Yuanchu thought about it and replied: "No, I think... this place might be in my body."

Hui Yuan initially didn't know if he had a ruling domain, nor did he know if this place was a ruling domain.But he could at least speculate that this place was related to the system and the power of the Creator.

So rounding counts as "in him."

Yukinoshita Saya accepted it calmly, and then said: "I understand, senior has become my scabbard."

Hui Yuan initially rubbed the corners of his eyebrows... It seemed that the channels between the two were indeed aligned and the conversation was going on normally, but after thinking about it again, it still felt weird.

"No, you are not a sword, and I am not a scabbard... Can't we have a normal relationship that ordinary people can have?" "Sorry, senior, I don't know how to do this."

"Then what do you know..."

"I can only kill senior." After a pause, Saya finally looked back at Hui Yuanchu, showing a smile that was so shallow that it was almost unrecognizable. "But, as expected, senior will not die no matter how hard he kills."

Hui Yuanchu sighed and planned to get to the point.

The first thing he wanted to confirm was: "Xue Zhi, did you see the movie just now?"

"Ah."

"About your parents, when you were still pregnant."

"Yes."

Huiyuan was relieved, she had indeed seen it.So he asked, "What do you think?"

Yukinoshita Saya hid her face slightly behind her knees again.

She looked up at the curtain again, her eyes revealing well-hidden confusion: "——It turns out I am really Xue Che."

Haiyuan twitched the corners of his lips, knowing that Yukinoshita Saya would come to this conclusion.

This inference is not outrageous.

The priest did give Yukichetsu to Yukinoshita Katsumi.But Katsumi finally chose to melt Yukiche.

Saya was born at the moment the snow was melted away.

Saya was born with special powers.On the other hand, Xue Che's blade was shattered after a flawless recasting. It seemed that the blade spirit was no longer there and became an empty shell.

——What can be deduced from these circumstances seems to be only one conclusion: Saya is the reincarnation of the sword spirit of Yuki Tetsu.

It can be deduced like this, that's right, Yukinoshita Katsumi should think like this, and he also brainwashed Saya in this way.

...but that's not right.

Because if you think this way, you will fall into the thinking trap of the apostles and agree with their concept that "the true spirit is the real person."

Huiyuan didn't think so at first.

He didn't care at all where Yukinoshita Saya's true spirit came from or where it entered this new flesh and blood cage.

It may come from other people, or it may come from Yuki Tetsuto who has further awakened - but what does this have to do with the "person" Yukinoshita Saya?

But Haiyuan didn't want to tell these words in detail to Yukinoshita Saya.

Rather than mechanical indoctrination, it would be more meaningful if she figured it out herself.

Moreover, Hui Yuanchu would not save people who had no idea of ​​saving themselves.

——Is Yukinoshita Saya such a person?

She is not completely brainwashed and still has enough struggles.But the question is whether this struggle is enough for her to break through her self-imposed blockade and honestly ask him for help.

Hui Yuan was looking forward to this.

He cleared his throat and said loudly: "——This question is not important."

"..." Saya raised her head and looked at him blankly.

"I'm not interested in who you are."

"I advise you not to think about the question 'Who am I'? This question is meaningless. Think more about 'What do I want'? This is the key point."

"Yes, I just want to know, Yuki, what do you want? What do you want me to do for you?"

Saya frowned and seemed to want to speak without thinking.

But Hui Yuanchu raised his hand to stop her.

"——Let me declare in advance that if you want to give up everything, that you only want to be my sword, and that you want me to be your master, then I will accept it."

"However, our relationship will stop here... From now on, I will use you without mercy."

"...If your wish really doesn't stop there..."

"So you better think about it before you answer me. Because you only get one chance."

Yukinoshita Saya fell into silence.

Then she and Hui Yuanchu turned to look at the screen.

Because the screen that should have been turned off now lights up again.

The screen began to play a scene that Haiyuan had seen before: after the kitten escaped, the girl Setsuko applied medicine to the young child Saya, and then cried while holding her.

This time, the film has no sound.

But because of the deep impression, Haihara could hear the words she said at that time in his mind just by looking at Setsuko's painful expression and her moving lips.

Including the tone and pauses that are both painful and slow, but also tenacious and unwilling to give up.

——Then Yukinoshita Saya, do you still remember it?
Hui Yuanchu turned his head,
Yukinoshita Saya stared at Setsuko on the screen, her face showing an unprecedented rich expression.

Her eyebrows were knitted together, and the area around her nose was red. She looked like she was about to cry but was holding back.

Struggle, ugly...but, for the first time, it became real.

Huiyuan stared at Saya like this and said softly: "Believe me, feel free to say it."

"Whether you want to be saved or whatever, I can do it."

"Just...just think that I am the almighty creator."

Yukinoshita Saya was still staring at the screen, but finally nodded.

It wasn't until Setsuko's image on the screen slowly dimmed that she sniffed a few more times, then finally raised her face that had temporarily regained its composure but still had red eyes, and pointed it at Hui Yuanchu.

Yukinoshita Saya slowly raised Haihara's hand that she had always held tightly, and then placed his hand on top of her head.

"I……

"I want to leave Xueche."

"I want senior to help me protect others."

"I also want senior... to protect me."

She said.

Haiyuan laughed, rubbed her head vigorously, and announced: "Not bad. I like such an honest Saya."

Then he stared into her eyes and activated his power.
