[Hokage] Eternal Light

I don't know what happened afterwards, but as soon as I opened my eyes, I saw Shuo Mao lying beside my bed. Just looking at him, I felt a strange sense of satisfaction in my heart.

Presumably his being here meant that the matter had been resolved.

It's just that the dark blue color under his eyes made me a little worried. I moved my arm, and it was very sore. Although I didn't have much strength, it was enough to wake up Shuo Mao.I wanted to call his name, but I couldn't speak.

Shuo Mao was woken up, he glanced at me, his eyes burst out with a light of surprise, he treated me as carefully as a glass full of cracks that was about to break, "Chang Ming?"

I blinked my eyes slowly to show that I was awake, and I really couldn't speak at all when I wanted to speak, but fortunately I opened my mouth and told him that I needed water to moisten my throat.

Shuo Mao understood it, and he also understood the common sense that patients will lack water. He poured hot water from the pot and mixed the half cup of water that was cold in the cup to make warm water. He made sure that the wall of the cup was not hot, and then he helped me Get up a little bit and bring the glass to my mouth.

Oh... so careful.

"It's been...it's been a long time...?" The hoarse voice that came out of his mouth was almost not his own, but it seemed that since he opened his eyes, he won the bet that day.

Shuo Mao also looked haggard, "Not for a long time, probably... four days and three nights."

"I'm still alive." I laughed, "I can still see... Shuo Mao, I feel... very happy."

Hearing this, Shuomao laughed, "I'm also very happy." On his tired face, there was an unconcealable surprise of finding something lost, and the light in his eyes was like a light bulb with a high wattage in my opinion, "I didn't lose it." You, then..."

He seemed a little hesitant, and I was a little curious, so I urged him with my eyes, and I tried my best to say, "What...?"

He seemed to have made up his mind, "I... promised to give you a kimono..."

"Huh?...Huh." I realized that it was during the festival, and I really had to destroy my new kimono.

"Will you marry me?"

What Shuo Mao said stunned me. He... likes me?No...it might be——Is something wrong with my body because of this injury?As a result, he had to... "You don't have to be responsible to me... I just wanted to help you block the knife before, and I didn't want to demand anything."

"No, it's not..." Shuo Mao was stunned, and quickly waved his hands, "It's not because of this! I really like you! Can you...can you marry me?" He took out, took out a small box--in it was a ring.

Ah...that's what I understood, so it's not my unrequited love..."Yeah." I nodded embarrassedly.

Although my voice was very soft, he clearly saw my attitude, and he laughed immediately. Even his tired face could not conceal his excitement. He was as happy as a child who got candy.

"I'll put it on for you." The corners of Shuo Mao's mouth almost reached his ears, and he couldn't see his usual steady look at all. Now he seemed like a fledgling young boy.

I am also very happy. It is a very sweet feeling that the person I like also likes me.I watched him gently put the ring on me.

Then—a voice came from outside the door, it sounded like a lot of people crowded together.

--"do not move!"

—— "You don't move! I can't even see!"

——"Stop talking! I can't hear you clearly!"

- "Shh -"

— "Oops! They found it!"

——"It's all your fault for being too loud!"

- "Hehehe -"

——"Shut up, all of you!"

After a period of chaos, several people who had been discovered stood in front of the hospital bed.

Tsunade, Orochimaru, Jiraiya, Yuma-sensei, Takumi, Etsuka, and two temporary teammates from the Inuzuka family and the Yume family...

Oh, everyone is here.I tried my best to ignore the powerlessness in my body and raised the corners of my mouth, "Thank you..."

……

I heard that the casualties caused by that attack were very small, and after thinking about it, it may be because there are many ninjas in Konoha—and there are also many ninjas who like to join in the fun.

After I told Shuo Mao the above conjecture, I got a headbutt.

Hey, really, why are you so fierce, acting like he's not just a party.

Then as a matter of course, I spent half a month recovering from my injuries, we got a marriage certificate three months later, and we held our wedding half a year later.

Orochimaru actually came during the wedding, I thought that people like him don't like to join in the fun.Jiraiya and Tsunade also came, and of course the wedding gifts were not missing.

Just watching Tsunade always grab Jiraiya by the nape of his neck to make him stop harassing other young girls makes me want to laugh, it's so funny.

Maybe it was because Shuo Mao was popular, had many friends, and many people came here.Toasting or something, fortunately, the degree is not high, otherwise a round of a cup would have died.

To be honest, Shuo Mao is a good husband, and I think I am very happy.

After a few years of such a peaceful life, the war began again.

I'm 21 years old, I became a Jonin last year, not because of opportunism, but because of my strength.I don't feel weak - if you don't have confidence, develop it.I know that I am strong. Although I am not as good as Tsunade and the others, I can still protect the juniors.

The war is really cruel, when my team led by this inexperienced Jonin didn't have any casualties, my teacher - I mean our instructor - Hinata Yuuma, died.

He died at the hands of the son and daughter-in-law of the first Kazekage's wife Chiyo, a poison master.

...I couldn't even believe it when I knew it.

I can't believe that such a deserted person disappeared so easily.

He didn't die from fighting but from the poison that was too late to crack.

Tsunade said that she felt sorry, but it was not her fault, she had worked very hard, and she belonged to the entire Konoha.

I didn't go to his funeral.

I put flowers in front of his tombstone.

I didn't even cry, just a little nauseous.

Then one day, Shuo Mao said that he had avenged me, "I didn't go after them on purpose, I just... encountered a mission..."

I grabbed his front and cried uncontrollably, "Even so, I still want to thank you..."

The author has something to say:
