Teresa won't starve

But after all—

Is Rin Sakura's younger sister? What does it have to do with Kasumi?

Even the impulse she had toward Rin at the beginning might have been copied purely from the subject, and had been integrated into the muscle memory of the flesh and blood.

......

"Of course. If you want to recognize her as your sister, you'd better ask her personally."

Kallen looked at Xia who was in conflict, and she didn't know if it could be considered comforting; she turned around and walked towards Sakura's sleeping Misaki, and her figure became blurred with every step she took.

"Where are you going?"

Listening to the sound of footsteps going away, Xia raised her head to look at Kallen.

However, she saw that the clothes on her body seemed to be replaced with the appearance of the sixth night; but the moment she turned around, she returned to the same dress as Yun Chen: "I have already delayed Her 500 years of time have also delayed her own 500 years. Now, it is time to put a 'successful' end to all of this."

At this time, Kallen has let go of the suppression of the curse seal of the hungry ghost.

Although this would cause her body to collapse again at any time, at least——she obtained the qualification to use the curse seal of the Hungry Ghost Path.

"You're thinking......"

Xia understood her thoughts in an instant. Although she had guessed through the previous conversation, Xia couldn't help becoming anxious: "But if you do that, your body will collapse first!"

"Ok, I know."

Seeing how anxious Xia was for her, Karen suddenly couldn't help laughing; even though she knew that she was not the Sakura she loved at all, she still felt——Xia at this moment is really cute! (Kaguya face)

"You, you will die."

"I know that too."

Just like what she said, she knew the ending a long time ago, but she chose to face it calmly: "You know, Xia! In fact, death is not as terrible as you imagined, especially—"

Karen said as she walked towards Yushenmu.

Walking to the point where 'her' is sleeping, stroking 'her' sleeping face that hasn't changed a bit in 500 years, as if everything was just yesterday: "I have already died once. I will die again just to be able to reunite with her."

"I......"

Xia wanted to say something else.

But before she could say it, Karen, who had her back turned to her, shook her head.

......

"Good night, Sakura. Let you wait for me for so long."

The smile on Karen's face slowly disappeared, but her eyes were filled with a hundred times stronger joy than that, as hot as joy that could melt icebergs.

971 "The child is lost again"

"That's not okay!"

Following a female voice that seemed to be sighing, a figure that even Kallen didn't notice suddenly fell from above Kallen's head, and swung the sickle in his hand to chop down.

"who......"

Karen drew out her pistol and wanted to aim at it, but the owner of the scythe seemed to have expected it a long time ago.

The sickle in her left hand, which she was about to cut off on purpose, was turned over under the control of the owner of the sickle; it hit Karen's chest with the side without the blade, and swept her away.

Fortunately, Xayah reacted in time and rushed to hug the flying Kallen; but Kallen was also stubborn, thanked her, and stood aside relying on her own strength only for the dull pain in the ninja's chest.

But when she saw the culprit who attacked her, Karen's eyes widened because she was too surprised:

"Rita? How could it be you?"

"Good evening, Lord Karen."

Although she was wearing a costume that was rare in the Far East, and even held a very inappropriate weapon in her hand; Rita still made a standard maid salute, bowing her head to Kallen.

"Why are you here?"

However, Karen ignored these, but continued to question her reason for appearing here.

It's just that Rita didn't answer, but gave a standard answer with no characteristics:

"With Lady Karen's intelligence, it's better to think carefully about why Rita did this."

"..."

Karen looked at the smiling maid without saying a word, as if a hole might be opened in the other's forehead at any time; but because of this, Karen gradually calmed down over time, and also Calm down.

Slowly, many things came to mind: "You, could it be that you mean 'he'? But 'he' why, no, 'he' should know how dangerous that thing is!"

"Of course. Both you and the bishop have the same opinion on this point."

"Why then?"

"For Lord Bishop, what is more important is that Lord Karen is still alive."

Without waiting for Karen to ask, Rita went on to say the following words: "When Lady Karen makes a wrong choice, Rita will personally move the wrong wheel back to the original track."

"So that's the case... No wonder, it is indeed his style."

Karen clearly knows that that man is someone who can give everything for herself; but it is precisely because of this that the most unacceptable thing for that man is "there is no Karen in this world".

So even if Karen wanted to die, she would definitely be stopped by that man.

But the only thing she didn't expect was——

Karen looked at Rita with a wry smile: "I thought you were just a messenger arranged by him to monitor me and communicate with me by letter, but now it looks more like a messenger confined to me. Lock."

"It's a messenger and a hidden stake. Rita is lurking in Yae Town according to the bishop's instructions, helping the bishop to monitor everything that happened in Yae town, and at the same time—"

"It's also for spying on me!"

"And intervene in Lord Kallen's affairs when necessary, lest Lord Kallen do something that is beyond regret."

"I will not regret my own choice!"

Karen pointed the two guns in her hands at Rita, and shook the muzzles of the pistols at the same time: "Get out of the way! Don't make me say it again! I don't want anyone to be hurt because of me, but if there is no choice - you will know the answer!"

"Is it the same as the Raiden Mei who shot you twice?"

"You saw her? No wonder."

Although it is not clear where Rita came from, she is not surprised to say that Rita has seen Raiden Mei... Wait, a thought suddenly flashed in Karen's mind: "By the way, how is that child?"

"The kid?"

Judging by Rita's appearance, she doesn't seem to know who Karen is talking about.

This actually stunned Karen: "Why, didn't you see her?"

"?"

"Then this..."

Karen thought of several possibilities.

However, now is not the time to think about that.

Not to mention that Kallen can't control her, what's more, even if she doesn't have Kallen, she should be able to take care of herself... right?

972 "You don't like me, but I like you"

Apart from praying that she will be safe, the only thing Kallen can do is to let this end as soon as possible:

"Get out of the way, Rita. You can't stop me."

"The Bishop's order is not for Rita to disobey. Please forgive me for this."

After talking about the scene, Rita brought the sickle to the front.

Obviously, they are ready to decide the outcome with Karen and decide who has the right to speak.

However, things are always unexpected...

click!

"?" x3

Rita, who was closest, reacted first, and turned her head to look in the outgoing direction.

Then I saw the witch on the god tree. Cracks appeared on her face like porcelain, and a black substance leaked out from the cracks.

"Successful! Sealed!!"

Even though she was far away, Caroline knew what was going on better than Rita.As soon as he stepped on the ground, he ran towards the god tree, completely ignoring Rita's hostile look before.

"..."

Xia hesitated for about a second, but also chose to follow.Even if she doesn't even have a weapon in her hand, she should be able to help somewhat with the four curse marks on her body.

Unfortunately, it was still too late.

call!

Rita, Kallen, and Xia didn't even see anything, they were pushed away by a strong wind, and they didn't stop until they were all at an equal distance.

When they climbed up again and looked over there, they realized that the original Misaki and Miko had long since disappeared. There was only a huge samurai wearing red armor, with only the upper body in black and purple, and holding two broadswords.

Was 'cheering' for its rebirth.

"This is?"

Kallen didn't recognize the huge samurai at first, but when she saw the shape of the weapon in the huge samurai's hand, she immediately thought of something that was as memorable as Sakura: "Spiritual Sword!? How is this possible!?"

Because it was that knife that killed her most beloved Sakura.

"It seems that the Corrosion Herrscher polluted the Spiritual Knife and broke the seal with the help of the Spiritual Knife."

"How did you know!?"

Kallen turned her head to look at Rita, and found that the look on her face was one of absolute certainty, not speculation, as if she had known this would happen.

Rita fell silent suddenly.

She didn't know whether she should answer the question.

But maybe it was because she thought about it, but in fact, whether she said it or not, Karen would not change her original thinking.It's like the bishop never thought that she would always suffer from secrets from the day he told her this.

then.

Rita took advantage of the time to tell Karen all the things she knew from the bishop, "Actually, as early as 500 years ago, the bishop made a deal with the Herrscher."

"He made a deal with Herrscher Corrosion?"

Even if he knew that that person had already stepped into evil ways.

But at this moment, Kallen still has a look of 'what are you talking about?Why can't I understand? ' crash expression.

"Master Karen, when you thought of the death of the Goddess Maiden, you had the idea of ​​committing suicide. In fact, the bishop has already thought of it. When facing the Valkyrie team, Lord Karen may give up everything to resist the arrival of the trial."

"But actually I don't."

"That's because the Corroding Herrscher, who hadn't completely fallen into a deep sleep at that time, affected Lord Kallen's mind, amplifying Lord Kallen's guilt and guilt towards the Mistress of the Goddess infinitely, which made Lord Kallen unwilling to die so easily."

So there is the story behind.

"!!!"

Seeing Kallen's eyes wide open.

Suddenly Rita wondered what the Bishop would think if he saw it.It's just a pity that the bishop might not be able to see it.

After she told the story, regardless of the outcome, Kallen probably...

"Erosion Herrscher, what is it that erodes? Viruses? People's hearts? Maybe all of them."

Rita couldn't help lamenting the strength of the Herrscher, and she was also lamenting that even though she was already a Valkyrie, she was still so powerless in the face of the Herrscher: "Under the influence of the Corrosion Herrscher, Mrs. Karen, you chose to rebuild Yae Village because of your sense of responsibility. You chose the power of immortality to guard it forever because of your guilt for the Goddess Miko. You..."

"enough!!!"

Karen interrupted her, with a cold face of 'I don't want to hear': "That's just my magnified anger, it's all just my self-righteousness."

Including cloud dust, including——

"One must have a spiritual support if one wants to survive." Rita faced the Jizo Yuhun who had stopped roaring, ready to attack at any time: "Whether it is love or hate. People who have nothing cannot live down."

"Then what was the last thing he told you to do?"
