Time in a collapsing world

"Frances Kaslana."

Carol named the man she called the Destiny Legend.

"Frances Kaslana? What a long name..." Yaeli repeated and complained.

"Our names are all like this. For example, my captain, Angeline Michelle, is her full name." Carroll explained.

"oh---"

Yaeli spoke in a longer tone, "What's your full name, Miss Carroll?"

"Uh...Carol Bugay."

"it's wired."

"Huh, in our opinion, your Shinano name is weirder, right?"

"Alright alright……"

Yaeli smiled and continued the previous topic, "So is that Frances Kaslana very powerful? So powerful that she can fight with monsters hand-to-hand?"

Yaeli saw Carroll's admiration for this man, so he made some rough guesses about his strength.

"That's not true. Although Sir Francis is the strongest person on our side, there is no doubt about it, but all he relies on is a [God's Weapon]." Carol shook his head.

"[Weapon of God]?"

Yae Ri thought of Sakura Fukiyuki who was kept in the temple. Isn't that also the so-called Fox God's spiritual sword?

Although it is extremely sharp, in Yaeli's opinion, it is far from the realm of [God].

Is the [Weapon of God] in the West the same as Sakura Fukiyuki? Or is it a little better than Sakura Fukiyuki?

"Yes, it seems to be a pair of guns, um, or a sword?"

Carol was not sure, after all, she had not seen Sir Francis use that kind of weapon with her own eyes. These information were all heard from the army, so the authenticity needs to be verified.

"By the way, Xiaoli, you should know what a gun is, right?"

"Just... you know."

There was no such thing in the village, but as a child who often went to the city, Yaeli had seen several rather backward muskets.

"Ms. Carroll, according to what you said, do you mean that the [Weapon of God] will transform?"

"This one……"

There was a thin layer of sweat on Carroll's forehead, "But, it's possible. In fact, I haven't seen it with my own eyes...but! I know for sure that Sir Francis used that weapon to annihilate countless monster attacks for destiny!"

"[Like fire coming from heaven, burning all uncleanness into ashes!]... This is clearly recorded in our books over there."

"..."

That seems really powerful.

At least it can breathe fire? It’s much more useful than my Sakurabuki, who can only chop melons and vegetables.

Yazongli looked at the sky. The moon was already high in the sky. He thought it was time to go back. "Then I'll leave first. Thank you for your answer. I'll bring you some food right away."

"No need to bother, it's too late. I can just use some biscuits I have to deal with it." Carol yawned.

"Well, that's alright. Goodbye, Miss Carroll."

"Actually, you can just call me sister Carol... I'll see you tomorrow, Xiaoli~"

After parting ways with Carol, Yae Ri returned to the shrine. Lord Yae Ri had already left, leaving only the two sisters who were frightened and insecure.

"Father scolded you again?"

Yaeli frowned when he saw the two sisters' eyes were red and swollen, as if they had cried not long ago.

"Well... my father scolded my sister, it was about the blond sister just now..." Yae Rin replied softly.

"..."

Yae Sakura didn't speak, she just sat next to Yae Rin's bed and lowered her head, not daring to let her brother see her current state.

After thinking about it for a moment, Yaeli understood that Lord Yae clearly did not welcome outsiders, especially Westerners. When he saw Carol coming to his home as a guest, he felt dissatisfied and vented his dissatisfaction on his body. On the body of Yae Sakura who acts as a shrine maiden.

Yaeli could even imagine his scolding words.

As the next generation of shrine maidens, it would be inappropriate to let outsiders into the shrine so easily...etc.

As for why he didn't tell me more, maybe it was because his father knew that even if he did, it would go in one ear and out the other.

"Sorry, it's my problem this time."

Yae Ri walked to Yae Sakura and sat down, reaching out to hold her little head. Yae Sakura also leaned into her brother's arms, enjoying the rare warmth and security in this family.

"Brother, where is Sister Carol?"

After a long time, Yae Sakura asked softly.

"Stayed in the village."

"Well...brother, Sister Carol won't be angry, right?"

Yae Sakura was worried that Carol would not help Rin solve the disease due to the influence of Yae God Lord, so she sounded worried.

"No, her temper is much better than our father's. She won't get angry over such trivial matters."

After Yae Ri comforted her, Yae Sakura finally calmed down, closed her eyes and quietly enjoyed her brother's embrace.

Yae Rin on the side glanced at the incomplete moon hanging high in the sky outside the unclosed door.

The half-full moon that was about to be swallowed up by darkness made Yae Rin feel inexplicably scared.

……

The next day, Yae Ri got up early in the morning and went to the outside of the village to quickly kill a monster. He took the head and asked Uncle Iwata, who had just woken up, to hand it over to Lord Yae.

Yaeri himself found the home of a carpenter in the village and asked him to make a wheelchair for him.

"Master Li, leave it to me. I will make this thing according to your request in the next few days!" the carpenter promised, patting his chest, and Yae Li also generously paid him more than his salary. , which made the other party even more elated.

"Ok?"

But just as Yaeli was about to go back to the shrine, he suddenly noticed that a line of sight behind him was staring at him. It was very familiar. When he looked back, there was nothing there. He only saw several villagers starting their busy life today.

"Illusion? How is it possible..."

Yaeli knew that someone must have been secretly watching him just now, but he was hiding it well enough not to be discovered.

A figure flashed in his mind, Yaeli turned his head after thinking, and continued walking forward as if nothing had happened.

At the same time, behind the retreating figure of Yae Ri, under the cover of a haystack, a head poked out from the secret passage below. It looked at Yae Ri's figure with its sunken eyes and murmured: "Master Li...is it actually you?"

When Yae Ri was hunting monsters outside the village this morning, the father of the Emon family saw him, and the wolf demon controlled by crystal fragments also had a great reaction to Yae Ri's scent.

This shows that the smell on the coins that were once left in the underground residence probably belongs to Yae Li.

This result made the father of the Emon family feel embarrassed for a moment, but when he thought of his daughter who died tragically at the sacrificial altar, his embarrassment was quickly eliminated.
