[Comprehensive] You see, this pot is big and round

——I am also doing this for your own good.

That is an old saying.

There was a heavy bang when the little supernatural power fell, and Qiyin felt the splashed sawdust brush his cheeks.

Other than that, none of the expected pain came.

The sharp blade stood beside her ear, and the tip of the blade pierced deeply, and a strand of hair was chopped off with only an inch of distance.Originally, her life should have been cut off.

But it didn't.Sakine could hear the slight thumping of the blade as it was stuck in the wooden floor, and she didn't know why this was the result.

The expression of "Lord God" is hard to see.She wanted to escape, but was pressed hard on her shoulders.

"Despicable artifact, congratulations, your death has been postponed by me."

But that's not something to congratulate at all.

Suzuka's laughter was extremely dry, and each sound scratched Sakine's nerves, and she was forced to listen to Suzuka's words.

"Remember, repeat what I said next to him verbatim, and all the gods of Gaotianyuan will listen."

Take a deep breath—

it hurts...

Everything she could see overlapped and turned into blurred patches of color, but she didn't let the tear fall.

"Everything in the past is not my fault—it's Gao Tianyuan's fault! I will..." She clenched her teeth, "Let Gao Tianyuan know how wrong you are!"

Sakine stared at her blankly, unable to believe what she heard, until Suzuka's roar brought her back to her senses.

"have you understood!"

She nodded dumbly, not daring to disobey at all.She knew very well in her heart that no matter when, the party who holds the power of life and death is always the god Suzuka.As long as she wanted, she could change her mind and kill herself without hesitation.

Now she is just a carrier pigeon to spread the word.It is very easy to find a new carrier pigeon.

In any case, she wanted to survive - to live to meet her divine master.

Suzuka stood up, grabbed the handle of the knife, and pulled it out forcefully.The cold blade touched Sakine's cheek at one point, and the sense of fear almost drove her to run away.

She watched Suzuka walk out of the shrine slowly, and his figure disappeared at the end of the street, but the rapid and heavy breathing still seemed to be ringing in her ears.

She still couldn't figure out why the dead Suzuka Gozen appeared in front of her eyes like this.Perhaps, she should ask her divine master...

The sun gradually rose, and the shadow it cast turned into a small pool of black marks, coiling around the feet.Suzuka stopped in her tracks, she felt as if she was imprisoned by a shadow.

Tiredness filled her skin bit by bit, and she didn't want to go any further.She is really tired.

There was a dark drop-shaped track on the feathered coat, which looked like it had been splashed with water, but the strong rust smell couldn't go away, so she couldn't forget that it was blood.

Her hands were also stained with the crimson warm liquid, and she couldn't wipe it off.

Just a little... just a little bit, and Suzuka's hand would have killed a life, even though she wasn't innocent.

Recalling the killing intent that reverberated in her heart at that moment, it still made her feel extremely terrified.

That's not like her.Who is that?

She had no answer in mind.

She didn't even know who she was.

Standing in the sunlight, she was shrouded in shadows, and the sunlight could not penetrate.

She watched the shadow being lengthened bit by bit, and a voice rang in her ears.

"What are you in a daze for?"

Dayake Maru pursed his mouth and frowned, his expression was not very good-looking, apparently he was impatient after calling her too many times.

"what……"

Suzuka exclaimed subconsciously, took a step back unconsciously, distanced herself from him, turned her back tremblingly, avoiding his gaze.

"What's the matter with you?" Dayakemaru put away his impatient expression, and he was a little wary in his words. After hesitating for a while, he decided to say bluntly, "Yagi, you have been very strange recently."

Still avoiding his gaze, Suzuka whispered, "Really? I think I'm normal."

As soon as Otakemaru heard this, she knew that she was insincerely trying to be brave.In this state, obviously nothing can be asked.He had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​continuing to ask, but he couldn't say nothing, so he asked her about the sports meeting instead.

When he said the word "sports meet", he could feel Suzuka stiffen.

Then there was silence again.

"Failed."

She said, her tone was calmer than she expected, and she couldn't even hold back a soft laugh.

"It was a fiasco."

"Oh……"

Dayake Maru could only give a muffled reply.More, he can't seem to say, but he knows that Suzuka will never become what it is now just because of the failure of the sports meeting.What is the reason...

A flash of inspiration.He had felt something was wrong with Suzuka since just now, and it was quite obvious something wrong that could be seen through at a glance.

"Why do you still look like this?" he asked, "Aren't you tired?"

A pounding.

Suzuka's heart fell rapidly, falling into the bottomless abyss.Her blond hair was hanging down, hiding her expression at the moment.

He was breathing heavily, but his depleted lungs couldn't grab any oxygen.Every word she uttered made her chest ache, but she answered anyway.

"Because, it can't be lifted." The voice was weak like a breath, "Do you hate it, this look?"

Otakemaru's pupils narrowed into a thin line.Vaguely, he seemed to have seen through something.He seemed to be able to know the name of the cloud hanging over Suzuka's head.

With an unnatural smile, he said, "Don't say such strange things."

"You must hate this appearance, and you hate me too." She continued, letting the double-edged sword penetrate deeply into each other's hearts, "Even if you bluntly say something like hate, I will I won't blame you. Because I hate myself too, there is no difference between us on this point..."

"do not talk!"

Dayakemaru tried to grab her wrist, but just as he held it in his hand, she pulled it away again.At this moment, she showed an unprecedented calmness. Even when she said those incomparably true words just now, she didn't feel any abnormal emotions raging in her heart.

To be honest, she thought she was going to cry.I don't know if this can be considered a small improvement.

There was only one step between them, and no one dared to approach each other.The approach of one party will inevitably lead to the avoidance of the other party.

Even though he knew that what Suzuka said was just a moment of anger, it made Otakemaru feel a little sad.

Does saying this mean that she still doesn't believe in herself?

Lack of trust - it's a sad word.

He wanted to wait for Suzuka to calm down.He also needs to calm himself down.

Standing on the edge of the crowd, they were silent.It seemed that after a long time, Suzuka seemed to have calmed down, raised his head, glanced at Otakemaru, and then looked away, looking at the end of the street.

Those pedestrians who ignored her passed by her eyes one after another, and none of them cast their eyes on her.

none……

An unprecedented sense of fear almost overwhelmed her.

"They can't see me..." She panted hard, tears kept gushing out along with the rapid breathing, she stepped back step by step, her voice was so helpless, "Dayue Maru, they can't see me anymore! I Is it a god or a monster..."

"Yagi...Yagi!"

Otakemaru held her hand tightly, no matter how much she struggled to escape, he never let go.

Slowly, she gave up struggling and burst into tears, and the words she spoke were broken questions.

"Who do you see when you look at me?"

She finally asked this sentence.

"Did you see Suzuka Gozen?" She grabbed Otakemaru's hand hard, her knuckles were pale, just like her face at the moment, "When I look at you, I also think of Suzuka Gozen .No matter how hard I try to make myself forget those memories, I still can't forget them at all...I can't forget, I can't forget! You can't forget either...then why are you still treating me so kindly? I know That's me -- I did it all."

"Shh-don't say that."

"It's me...it's all me..."

"No. It's not."

Gently wipe away her tears and hug her.

It is difficult to communicate the emotions between different individuals, but at this moment Otakemaru can clearly touch all the sharp pain in Suzuka's heart.It was those hard spikes that pierced her torn holes, and the unreasonable guilt and painful memories filled these holes again, making her no longer like her original self.

Caressing her long hair, Otakemaru heard her heart-piercing crying turn into a weak whimper.

"I knew a long time ago that you are not Suzuka Gozen. You are just you, a very ordinary person——you will explain to me righteously that you are not Suzuka Gozen's stubborn little girl."

The whimpers turned into trembling breathing.Otakemaru never recognized Yagi Suzuka as Suzuka Gozen, I wish she could realize this too.

He let go of his embrace, awkwardly brushed Suzuka's messy sideburns behind her ears, and gently pinched her face.

"Now, calm down. Focus and listen to me."

Taking a deep breath, Suzuka looked at him and nodded seriously: "Okay."

"Think about who you are and what your name is."

"..."

Suzuka was stunned for a moment, and fell silent for a moment.For a moment, she wanted to avoid Dayakemaru's questioning.But of course, she didn't succeed.

"I have to answer!" He seemed to be angry, and he said loudly, "Your name is Yagi Suzuka, do you understand? It's nothing else, not Suzuka Gozen, nor Aika, just Yagi Suzuka. "

"Yagi...Suzuka..."

She repeated lazily, her nose sore, and she couldn't help but shed tears again.

This is such a simple question, she must have been able to answer it easily in the past.But why, now it was Dayake Maru who helped her realize the answer?

She is... so stupid!

"Don't cry, don't be ashamed." Dayakemaru comforted, "Now, release your ability."

Accompanied by his words, the shell of the god gradually faded away, revealing the weak Suzuka curled up inside, and all the burdens disappeared instantly.

Yagi Suzuka, still Yagi Suzuka.

There were searching eyes all around. They looked at the girl with red eyes from crying strangely, but they quickly looked away and rushed to the destination they needed to go to.

Suzuka touched his face, then looked at his hands.The blood in the palm has disappeared.

"Look, it's changed back!" Da Yuemaru smiled and patted her on the shoulder.

Suzuka lowered his head and approached him.The next moment, he was hugged tightly.

"thanks……"

Suzuka buried her face in his chest, the sound of her strong heartbeat was like the waves of the sea country.

"I'm glad to have you here."
