The King of Shadows

Chapter 46 Snow God Moon's Past
The night is like a curtain, covering the earth unknowingly, the fragmented starlight reflects the little lights, and there is a peaceful atmosphere between the sky and the earth.

Snapped!
The door was pushed open, Xue Shenyue was dripping with water, with a sluggish expression, her hands were drooping, and she walked in feebly, almost swaying every step, making everyone in the main hall wonder whether this guy would come in next time. In an instant, he fell to the ground.

"I'm home!"

Dazna pushed his glasses, and asked in surprise, "What's the matter, you're in such a mess?"

"Ha ha."

Xueshenyue giggled: "In order to get Kakashi to change his name, I worked my ass off!"

Kakashi twitched his face and turned his head away.

"By the way, haven't Naruto and Sasuke come back yet?" Xue Shenyue sat at the table, raised her chopsticks, and asked in confusion.

Xiao Ying said unhappily at the side: "Those two guys said they won't come back until they climbed to the top of the tree! I don't think they will come back tonight."

"That's it..." Xue Shenyue nodded, and started to pick up rice, now she was so hungry that her chest was pressed against her back, and she didn't care about her image anymore.

But Kakashi shook his head and smiled: "Those two guys, the training intensity is probably half of yours!"

"Half?!" Sakura involuntarily covered her mouth and exclaimed.

In the past two days, she couldn't find where Xue Shenyue was, so she often stayed with Sasuke Naruto, and naturally knew how those two guys were cultivating desperately. She was so excited, she couldn't imagine how this young man tortured herself...

No wonder he's progressing so fast. Is there really anyone who can keep up with him like this?

Xue Shenyue put the last mouthful of rice into his mouth, chewed it casually, and swallowed it. Then his whole body went limp, and he lay down on the table. Today he really squeezed out the last trace of chakra before coming back. After bleeding a lot, the wound is easy to heal, but the blood is not so easy to replenish, so he is still a little dizzy now.

"Don't push yourself too hard, you are already very good!" Kakashi touched Xue Shenyue's head and said gently.

Xue Shenyue blocked his hand, curled her lips and said, "No, it's still far away!"

Inari, who was sitting opposite him, stared blankly at the young man who was dripping and weak and panting in front of him, as if he saw the figure of the man who came down from the river dam that year, the same perseverance, the same never give up...

"Why...why..." The boy's voice was trembling, and tears could not stop falling down.

Xue Shenyue raised her head with difficulty, and asked inexplicably, "What's wrong?"

"Why are you working so hard! No matter how hard you practice, you can't defeat Kado's subordinates!" The boy clenched his fists and growled tearfully: "No matter how hard we try! We will all die against the really powerful guys and the weak ones!" deal!"

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, silent.

Xiao Ying looked at Xue Shenyue worriedly, but heard the boy say indifferently: "What a boring brat..."

"I hate you when I see you!" Inari roared with tears in his eyes, "You know nothing about this country and you still think you are right all day long! You who have never experienced pain don't understand me at all!"

"Inari..." the young man suddenly stood up, leaning on the table and said.

The boy looked slightly taken aback.

I saw Xue Shenyue looked at him expressionlessly, and said indifferently: "You know... I have my own reasons for working so hard, not to help this country as you think, nor to prove anything, I just don't want to be in need of protection It was only when I realized that I didn't have that ability, it was like..."

He paused, and the last sentence hit the boy's heart hard: "Just like your useless father!"

Kakashi frowned and said, "Shenyue, that's too much to say."

Xue Shenyue shook her head, then lay back on her stomach again: "It's really boring."

...

Late at night, the moonlight is thick.

Kakashi walked outside, and saw Inari sitting alone by the water, he thought for a while, and walked over: "Can I sit here?"

Inari glanced at him sideways, but said nothing.

Kakashi sat down silently, and said, "Actually, Shenyue has no malicious intentions. Don't pay attention to what he said. He just has a weird attachment to power..."

Inari hugged his knees, and the flowing lake reflected in his eyes.

"We've all heard about your father. Like you, Shenyue has never had a father since he was a child." Kakashi lowered his head and said, "It should be said that he never had parents, and he experienced it at a very young age. Very cruel thing... To be honest, if it is compared to the past, he is much more miserable than you..."

Like lightning, the little boy raised his head in amazement: "Huh?"

Kakashi's gaze was a little deep: "Six years ago, when I adopted him under the order of Hokage-sama, you couldn't imagine what kind of eyes he had at that time, that kind of disregard for life was almost engraved in his bones... I thought that he might have been like that all his life, becoming a tool that only knows how to kill!"

Inari was completely attracted by Kakashi's words: "What happened next?"

"I spent a lot of time teasing him and making trouble with him. Sometimes I find it very funny to see him upset and crazy. Maybe this is fate... Later... he began to become more and more cheerful and laugh. , can play pranks, can make jokes... His changes make me very happy, and also make Hokage-sama who has high hopes for him very gratified." Kakashi's eyes showed the color of memory.

Inari lowered his head, there used to be someone who was so kind to him, but he... is no longer here...

"I often think that if he can inherit Hokage-sama's will of fire and become the mainstay of guarding this village, it must be very exciting! He is so outstanding..." Kakashi paused and said in a deep voice Said: "However, I gradually discovered that he just hid the darkness in his heart and showed a bright side, which can be seen in the occasional few words."

The little boy scratched his head in confusion.

Kakashi didn't care whether he could understand or not, but continued on, as if he had kept these words in his heart for a long time: "This child has always been struggling on the edge of light and darkness, yearning for family affection but I was an orphan when I was young, longing for freedom but being restrained since I was a child...Maybe you will never imagine that your life has been controlled by another person, how frustrating it is!"

Kakashi's eyes showed worry: "So he is very eager for power, so eager to torture himself at all costs, he can do things like stabbing himself 36 times a day, I am really worried about him..."

"If one day, the world disappoints him, he...will definitely be ruined!"

Kakashi slowly got up and walked into the house: "We don't want to be strong for power, we need to be strong for protection! This is the greatest wealth in life, Shenyue..."

"I wish someone could wake you up..."

...

The next day, the sun was shining.

Sakura followed Kakashi and Datsuna out of the wooden house, stretched her waist, and suddenly turned her head to look, wondering: "Mr. Kakashi, is Shenyue still awake?"

Kakashi shook his head and said: "He has tortured himself to the limit these days, he probably needs to take a good rest today, let's go first."

Sakura looked into the house, then nodded and followed.

Tsunami told behind her: "Be careful on the road!"

...

At the same time, suspended in the mid-air conical wooden house.

Bang!
Zai Buchou squeezed an apple abruptly with his right hand, stretched his palm and said, "Very good, finally recovered."

He lifted the beheading knife from the corner of the wall behind his back, and he looked very relaxed: "Bai, this time the murderous kid will rely on you."

The masked hands of the beautiful boy froze slightly, inexplicably recalling the scene of the boy in the windbreaker picking herbs for himself in the woods, his heart darkened for some reason, and he said solemnly: "Yes!"

"Then let's go!"

...

The war is coming...

I never want to give up on myself, and I hope the world will not give up on me, otherwise... destroying the world is nothing! ——Snow God Moon——
