Yae Sakura!Beep!

Hitomi looked at Sakura who was taking care of Rin to wash up, and Rin who was gradually waking up under Sakura's care, and didn't make a sound, for fear of destroying the harmonious scene between the sisters.

Half a month has passed since the day she was named Yaehitomi.

She also gradually got used to the life here, staying in the room with Rin in a daze every day, waiting for Sakura to come back, playing with them, and learning the language.

That's right, since the day she discovered that she could speak in other people's minds in a special way, Sakura and Rin seemed to be interested, and they grabbed her every day to teach her how to speak.

I don't see them having the idea that Hitomi is a monster. The so-called god's appearance before is like a joke, and I haven't mentioned it again. Sakura and Rin are treated like their own sisters. looking at her.

But thanks to this, although Hitomi's fox mouth cannot speak human language because the vocal structure is different from that of humans, she has also learned how to speak in the language taught by her sisters smoothly in other people's minds.

"Okay, Hitomi, come, have something to eat first."

Sakura's call interrupted Hitomi's thoughts, she followed the prestige to look.

Sakura filled two bowls of porridge, one bowl was placed in front of her, and the other bowl was being held, ready to be fed to Rin.

It can be seen that Hitomi's bowl is still quite rotten. Although half a month has passed, it is obvious that her teeth have not grown to the point where she can chew hard things, and there is no milk for her here. eat, so Hitomi can only eat porridge like Rin.

If it was an ordinary fox, maybe this little nutrition would not be enough for her growth, but Hitomi didn't look like an ordinary fox either.

"Hitomi! Good morning!"

Rin finished his breakfast, hugged Hitomi beside him, and said hello with a smile.

"Good morning, sister Rin!"

Hitomi also rubbed against her as a greeting.

"Cough cough..."

Rin, who seemed to want to say something, was stopped by a sudden cough.

"Sister Rin?"

Startled, Hitomi quickly raised her head, and looked at Rin who was covering her mouth with her hands.

Rin shook his head, put her down gently, and spread out his palms. In the palms, there was a touch of bright red that was shocking.

Although Sakura on the side seemed to be used to it, she took a soaked clean towel and carefully wiped the blood for Rin, but the slightly furrowed eyebrows and the unconcealed worry on her face were clearly visible. Let her heart out.

"It's okay, Hitomi, my sister just has a little problem."

Rin chuckled and said to Hitomi, hoping she wouldn't worry too much.

"Um……"

Hitomi nodded her head lightly, but Hitomi didn't speak any more.

"Sister, what's the matter with you today?"

Suddenly, Rin asked Sakura.

Looking at Sakura's expression, she seemed to have sensed something.

"No, nothing."

Pursing her lips, Sakura smiled, indicating that there was nothing wrong.

Rin didn't think so, she took a serious look at Sakura's face, then turned her head to look at the bright sunshine outside the window.

"...Yes, the sacrifice is about to start again?"

I asked this question.

"..."

"……Um."

After hesitating for a long time, Sakura nodded slightly.

"That's right...it hasn't rained for two months."

Sighing slightly, Rin looked at Sakura's complicated expression, she smiled, stretched out her clean other hand, and pressed it on Sakura's chest.

"This is the duty of a miko, and there is no other way."

Feeling her sister's unsteady heartbeat, Rin tried to comfort her with a smile.

"Well, my sister is fine, Rin doesn't have to think so much, as long as you get well from your illness now, my sister will feel at ease."

Shaking her head, Sakura said.

"Okay, Rin, let's drink the medicine first, so that the illness will get better."

Sakura put away the towel and brought over a bowl of medicinal soup.

"Ah."

Rin opened her cherry lips, and drank the medicine that Sakura sent over in one gulp.

Hitomi just lay on the side and watched, but couldn't help at all.

The mood is a little bit complicated.

But what is sacrifice?

Hitomi was lost in thought.

Just like before, after the inexplicable words appear in her mind, there will be related knowledge and explanations, which will appear in her mind together.

Sacrifice...Need a sacrifice?

Sacrifice, what is it?

By the way, sister Sakura is a witch?

What is the duty of the witch?

She remembered what they said before, and the explanation of the miko appeared in her mind.

Is that what my sister is wearing a priestess costume?

But why is it not the same as imagined?

The more he thought about it, the more confused he became, Hitomi gave up thinking again.

…………

"Sister, what does the medicine taste like?"

Seeing Sakura feeding spoon by spoon and Rin drinking mouth after mouthful, Hitomi was a little curious.

"Stupid, what does medicine taste like, it's just bitter."

Sakura smiled and nodded Hitomi's head.

"Oh..." Hitomi revealed a ignorant look.

"Do you want to try Hitomi?"

Rin looked at Hitomi as if curious, and asked.

"Well...forget it."

After thinking about it, Hitomi shook her head vigorously, feeling very bad, she still knew this.

"Okay, the medicine is over."

Sakura wiped her lips and the corners of her mouth for Rin, and cleaned up the bowls and spoons.

"Well, please trouble sister."

"Fool, there is no trouble."

Standing up, Sakura picked up everything and prepared to go outside.

"I'm going to wash everything up."

"Ah."

Rin responded.

She watched Sakura go out and closed the door behind her.

Hitomi on the side looked out the window, not knowing what to think.

"Sister Rin..."

Nunuuo's young girl's voice suddenly sounded.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

Rin tilted his head and asked softly.

"For that sacrifice... there must be sacrifices, right?"

"……Um."

"That sacrifice... what is it?"

"..."

long silence.

It seems that Rin doesn't know what to say to Hitomi.

Section 5, the 5th falling cherry offering

In the end, Rin didn't tell Hitomi what the so-called sacrifice was.

Rin acted as if she didn't want to talk, and Hitomi naturally wouldn't push her further, so she continued to play with Rin as usual.

When the time came to noon, the warm sun gradually became vicious, and the shining turned into burning.Sakura held her lunch and pushed the door open again.

"Okay, Rin, Hitomi, let's have lunch."

Sakura greeted her and set the tableware.

"Here we come, sister." ×2

…………

After lunch, Sakura seemed to have something to do. After she packed her things, she chatted casually and left.

After sitting and resting for a while, Rin slowly lay down. She always looks weak and cannot move too much, so she usually chooses to take a nap in the afternoon.

Since the morning, Hitomi has been absent-minded. Seeing that Rin had fallen asleep, she hesitated for a while before climbing up the window and jumping out.

The place where they have been living is a shrine named Yae on the mountain. This Yae shrine enshrines a god who looks like a fox. Both Sakura and Rin who live in this shrine have the blood of witches, and Sakura, She is the contemporary Yae Miko.

Looking down along the long mountain road, at the foot of the mountain, there is a slightly deserted village with a population of less than a few hundred, which makes this village named Yae Village look small.

Hitomi's four little claws ran hard, and ran all the way down the stairs on the mountainside. When I looked down, I didn't feel how long it was, but after running, Hitomi realized how long the stairs were.

As soon as she stopped to take a few breaths, she saw Ying who was walking down step by step not far ahead, and hurriedly ran into the grass beside her, and followed Sakura quietly.

The last few steps were not long, and soon, Sakura came to the gate of the village. A middle-aged man was standing at the gate, holding a long sword in his hand, as if he was waiting for Sakura. .

"Sakura, you are late, the sacrifice is about to begin."

"...Sorry, Father."

"Ah."

The middle-aged man responded indifferently, nodded his head slightly, and handed the sword to Sakura.

"You must call me God Lord during the sacrifice."

"Yes, Lord God."

With her head lowered, Sakura's usual lively personality was completely gone at this time, and she took the tachi from the middle-aged man.

Hitomi looked at the middle-aged man over there. His silver-white hair made him look like a vicissitudes of life. The scattered bangs on his forehead were somewhat similar to Sakura's hair. Hitomi noticed that the middle-aged man who claimed to be a god There was a faint tear mole under the left corner of the young man's left eye. She remembered that Rin also had a tear mole that was not too conspicuous, but it was in the same position as him.

Could this be my sister's father?

Hitomi also heard Sakura and Rin mention their father, who seems to have been serving as the head of the shrine. The villagers in Yae Village respect him very much. Although he is also a member of the shrine, he is not related to Sakura. They lived together, but lived alone in Yae Village.

God Lord?

Do you mean the supreme leader of the shrine?

Another unfamiliar word appeared, but this time Hitomi was already able to understand the corresponding knowledge that appeared later.
