Yae Sakura!Beep!

Sakura was not as indifferent as she was with those villagers. She nodded her head as a response, and the children scattered immediately.

"Karen, you can go."

Looking up, Sakura looked at Kallen, her face looked normal.

"So soon?"

Still thinking about telling some interesting things to the group of children, Karen didn't expect Sakura to finish the matter so quickly.

"Why do they seem to be afraid of you?"

"do not know."

Seeing that Sakura was about to walk out of Yae Village, Karen hurried to catch up.

Chapter 29, Chapter 27 The Whispers of the Falling Cherry Devil

"Karen, you go back first, and help me put these packages in the back room by the way, please."

Walking to the torii gate of the shrine, Sakura made a sound. She stood still, turned around, and handed the things in her hand to Kallen.

"Eh? What's the matter with you?"

Kallen asked after taking what Sakura handed over suspiciously.

"Well, a little... I want to go to the mountains."

"Okay, then I'll go back first."

Along the way, Kallen had already seen that Sakura might have something on her mind that she didn't want to say, but since Sakura didn't want to say it, she didn't have to force it, so she gave Sakura a bright smile.

When the injury is healed, she will be allowed to leave.

Looking at Kallen's smiling face, the words popped up in Sakura's mind, the words she just said not long ago.

"Then Sakura, be careful! Come back early!"

Karen's voice sounded beside her ears, she recovered and smiled.

"Well, I'll be back soon."

Watching Karen walk into the shrine, Sakura's eyes flashed with complicated emotions.

She turned around and walked up the mountain along a path.

I won't let you go, Kallen.

…………

People in the village would not allow her to stay at the shrine.

Along the way, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, the trees are shaded, the breeze is caressing, and the branches and leaves are dancing all over the sky.

Walking under this refreshing beauty, the pink-haired girl's heart is full of depressive thoughts.

The command of the Almighty Lord is absolute.

In my heart, there is such a voice.

There was a little confusion in Sakura's eyes, and she subconsciously walked along this path that she had traveled many times.

"This time, I won't do what he wants."

Mumbling, Sakura didn't notice, her silver teeth clenched slightly, with some force.

Only this time, the only time, I want Kallen to stay with me.

…………

elder sister……?

Sakura's obvious abnormality, Hitomi who has been with her all the time, how could she not notice it.

She found that ever since Sakura came out of the room of the god master, her left thumb was always touching Sakura Fukixue's sword from time to time.

Although Sakura Fukixue is not Sakura's most commonly used sword, she usually only uses Dan Ying when practicing swords, and Sakura Fukixue doesn't use it much.

But Hitomi still knows that every time when performing sacrifices, when Sakura draws her sword, she uses her left thumb to hit the sword of the Taidao in this way.

Hitomi, who doesn't care about the world, has been looking at Sakura without knowing why, until just now, when she heard Sakura's inadvertent murmur, she felt that something bad might happen.

…………

After walking the path, there is a thick cherry tree at the end, and there are obvious traces of cleaning nearby.

This is already the top of the mountain, and there is only such an obviously old cherry tree growing, surrounded by a small open space.

Walking under the cherry tree, there are two small mounds and two tombstones.

Yae Rin's Tomb.The tomb of Yae Hitomi.

In Sakura's eyes, there were no complicated emotions from before, and there was no longer a feeling of depression, and it became softer.

"Rin, Hitomi, long time no see."

Her voice was gentle and soft, as if a gust of wind could blow it away.

"I'm sorry, my sister should have come to see you earlier."

Her eyelids were half covered, and there was a little apology in her words.

"Recently, something happened a little bit."

"My sister picked up a big sister who was unconscious in the creek."

The corner of Sakura's mouth curled up slightly imperceptibly.

"Her name is Karen, a very strange name, and she is wearing a strange black dress. According to her, it seems to be the uniform worn by a nun in the far, far west, just like my sister. , and one who serves the gods.”

"It looks like a very reliable person, you know? Her personality is very similar to that of my sister when she was a child. She is also frizzy and can't stop for a moment. However, my sister can see that her eyes are like Much stronger than my sister."

There seemed to be a smile in the words, and there was a brisk feeling in Sakura's voice.

"Like, Rin is as strong as Hitomi."

With her back against the thick trunk of the cherry blossom tree, Sakura sat down slowly, she untied Sakura Fubuki and Dan Ying, and put them on her lap sideways.

Under the soil that is only a few feet beside her, are her only two relatives.

With her hands on the two katanas and her legs slightly bent, Sakura's body slowly relaxed.

She breathed a sigh of relief, leaning her head against the cherry blossom tree behind her, looking up at the blue sky beyond the gap between the branches and leaves, her eyes became blurred.

"Sister misses you so much..."

A fluttering sentence, expresses all the thoughts.

"The promises that were made, but none of them were fulfilled. Tell me, is my sister really bad?"

She smiled and looked at the sky, but the emotion in her eyes made her look more like crying.

"That's right, my sister shouldn't be thinking about it. If it was Rin and Hitomi, they would definitely say that."

Perhaps only at this time, Sakura will completely let go of her guard and disguise, revealing her tiredness that can hardly be concealed, and her scarred heart.

"The God Lord does not allow me to leave Karen in the shrine."

Suddenly, she slowly started talking.

"This is indeed the tradition of Yae Village, 'Only people with the blood of a witch can live in the Yae Shrine'. Indeed, even he himself cannot live in the shrine. How could he let Karen, a 'foreigner' Living in a shrine."

"I don't know if Karen will leave after her injury is healed... But she always hugs the black box and looks out the window."

"I know, she's looking to the west, that's where Karen's home is, and she has her own relatives waiting for her."

"But I don't want her to go..."

Speaking of this, Sakura laughed a little self-deprecatingly. She felt that she was too selfish, so she skipped this topic.

"Speaking of which, I don't know why Kallen insisted on holding that box all day, maybe there is indeed something important in that box, but a gap has already been cracked, and Kallen didn't notice it? "

"Besides, she always blushes suddenly and inexplicably, and she doesn't know what she is shy about."

"Really, a little silly..."

"So cute..."

She lowered her head and looked at the two swords under her hand.

As long as the God Lord is killed, Kallen doesn't need to leave, right?

In an instant, there was such a dark emotion in my heart.

Use this cherry blowing snow to cut his throat, just like in the past when offering sacrifices.

Watching his blood spread all over the ground, dyeing the blade of Sakura Fubuki red, dyeing the shrine maiden clothes on my body red.

And those villagers...

Sakura's mind seemed to be stained with some kind of darkness, and her thoughts slipped into the abyss.

don't hold grudges...

Elder sister must become an outstanding priestess...

Then, the hoarse voice with a sense of weakness in memory sounded.

No, I can't do that, my duty is to protect Yae Village.

The knuckles of the hands resting on the two knives are a little hard.

But if you don't, Kallen will leave sooner or later.

In my mind, that voice kept ringing.

No, even if she can't live in the shrine, she can live in the Yae village.

Sakura objected.

Would you like Kallen to live with those villagers?

Her thinking froze for a moment.

When the time comes, will Kallen still remember you?

Maybe, she will fall in love with someone in Yae Village, and then marry and have children with someone from the group of villagers you hate the most.

Sakura felt more and more unacceptable fantasies were desperately growing in her mind, she wanted to stop, but she couldn't control her imagination.

No, Kallen won't do that.

Her rebuttal became feeble.

Karen's love is not yours. In her eyes, you are the same as those villagers. She treats everyone equally.

not like this.

Sakura is still resisting something.

So, do you want to make a bet?

The voice gradually faded away, as if it was about to disappear, but it carried an irresistible temptation.

Win, and your Kallen will never leave you.

Like the whisper of the devil.

If you lose, you are mine.

Chapter 30 Chapter 28

It was nightfall, and after returning to the shrine and putting Sakura Fubuki back to the main hall, Sakura went back to the back room to cook for Kallen.

Looking at the familiar scene around her, Hitomi was a little agitated, of course she knew something was wrong with Sakura now, she wanted to help Sakura, but there was nothing she could do.

Feeling the energy in the body, there is still only a little amount that can't even be blown up by blowing a bubble.
