Fate_Hero back

sin·Kojiro Sasaki singled out. "

…………

The church, which was dyed bright red by the afterglow of the setting sun, was instantly dead silent.

Green Archer: "..."

Kojiro: "..."

Unknown nun: "..."

As if after a whole century of silence, the young man in green tremblingly raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat that covered his forehead.

"I said...Miss, this is really an interesting cold joke."

"...Huh? Am I serious?"

Hu Tao jumped down from the back of the chair as if to prove that he was not joking, and drew the long knife on his back with his backhand.

"Wait, wait, miss, don't draw the knife! Well, I think it's better for us to pretend to be passing couples—"

"Archer, don't talk about lack of ambition, I'm ready for a duel..."

"Can't beat it?! No matter how you look at it, can't you beat this?!! Has the analysis of combat power in Miss's mind been washed into her intestines!!!"

"..."

Different from the black-clothed nun who is as fierce as an arrow on the string, the man who holds a five-foot long silver knife in his hand and is dressed in a quaint period drama stares coldly at the two who are arguing about trivial matters, and finally supports I couldn't help breaking the work with a "poof".

"Heh, haha... really happy people. Although I deeply hate being born in the world again, it is a great blessing to meet such an interesting opponent. I must thank you, Kaoru."

The nun who was called "Xun" was not at all happy, but said with a stern face and gritted her teeth:

"Let's stop talking nonsense, Assassin. In my opinion, talking to someone who will be knocked down sooner or later is just an ineffective waste of time."

"...Are all the nuns in this country such cruel and blasphemous creatures?"

Robin Hood leaned close to Walnut's ear and whispered in surprise.

"Don't worry about it, it's a cultural difference."

Walnut kept talking nonsense.

"Well, what you said is indeed reasonable. But... Personally, I would like to exchange more words with these people at this time. After all, once the winner is decided, there will be no chance to talk, right?"

On the other side, while idly responding to the Master, the swordsman turned his neck without the slightest hostility, and cast meaningful gazes at Walnut and Archer.

"Hey, are these guys predicated on their own victory? Although it is true that the disparity in strength is true, it is a little bit irritating to be mentioned to this extent, isn't it Miss...Miss?"

Green Archer casually turned to Walnut to seek approval, and suddenly saw that she was looking at Assassin with a vaguely excited look, and suddenly recalled that on the night of Rider's battle, Walnut had lightly said "I prefer oriental handsome men like Kojiro".Originally, he only took Hu Tao's usual cold jokes and didn't pay much attention to them, but now a ball of anger broke out from the bottom of his heart for no reason.The young man kept speculating whether Hu Tao came here on purpose to meet this heroic spirit, and simply turned his face away.

Hu Tao turned her head to meet Archer's awkward and gloomy expression, knowing that her partner didn't want to see her value other familiars (including Izumo), so she couldn't help but slap him on the back half in explanation and half complaining:

"Ar—cher, you're starting to think about strange things again. Hey, I know you've always been concerned about being an unnamed heroic spirit, and you've always worried that I'd empathize with you and find a powerful partner who will go down in history, but this time you can Don't worry a million times. Mr. Sasaki Kojiro is the same existence as you."

"Varied……"

Archer widened his eyes in surprise.

Although the swordsman on the opposite side was not shocked, he also showed some surprise.

"Oh. This can really be called a meeting of fate...Miss, is that the one over there too?"

"Well, as you can see."

Walnut nodded frankly.

"Archer is not the real 'Robin Hood the Thief' himself. It's no wonder that 'Robin Hood' itself is a fictional image woven from countless legends. This guy was just named on the Seat of Heroes with this name and buried in history Just an ordinary hunter."

"So, you also..."

Green Archer still couldn't believe it.The dou qi surrounding Assassin's sword is really too clear and refined, that kind of dizzying aloofness and beauty, it doesn't look like something that mortals possess.

"Ah. Just as the lady said."

Assassin didn't shy away from concealing it, and nodded gracefully.

"It's really a pity. This body is indeed not the world-famous 'Sasaki Kojiro', but an unknown warrior who devoted his whole life to making friends with the sword and is worthless."

"Do you understand that, Archer?"

Seeing that the archer was still standing still, Hu Tao patted his shoulder again and snickered.

"I have always had a deep affection for Assassin, not just because of his flamboyant appearance. Losing his real name, becoming an unknown person unknown to the world, and all the merits he made as a heroic spirit are attributed to the non-existent 'Sasaki Kojiro', even if Don’t you think it’s amazing to be able to go to the battlefield with such a free and easy smile like this? —Of course, Archer is the same.”

——You who have been obliterated under the ruts of the times, although you can’t get the glory that matches your life, you have won the fame that is not lost in the thousand years because of your ignorance and the chic aloofness in the face of ignorance noble.

——You guys like this, I respect, admire, and look forward to from the bottom of my heart.Although it runs counter to the orthodox heroic spirit of the epic system that he worshiped when he was young, and it is not an exaggeration to be ridiculed as a heretic, but he is also a veritable [hero].

"I just said 'I want to see the place where I met Archer again', but I wasn't completely lying. ... I really think so, it's great to meet Archer. Also, the opponent in the final battle is Assassin, that's too good to be true."

That was her undisguised voice.

"...Ha, I lost to the eldest lady again. But, it's better not to say such dangerous lines like death flag."

The green Archer let out a long breath as if discouraged, tilted his neck and moved his shoulders, and slowly reached for the crossbow under the cloak.

——The swordsman standing on the opposite side will not swing his sword at the unsuspecting opponent.

The same nameless Heroic Spirit, the young man somehow realized this.

"Tsk, Assassin, what are you still dawdling about? Get rid of them immediately, I didn't summon you to make friends in this world!!"

However, the nun who had been watching the fire from the other side finally couldn't bear it anymore.She was obviously not good at fighting like Rider's master, she only confronted Walnut for a moment, then avoided a corner of the church and watched from a distance.Seeing that Assassin was engrossed in the leisurely conversation with Hu Tao and had no intention of making a move, he anxiously urged him.

"Compared to this, I would like to ask Miss Nun."

Hu Tao unhurriedly drew the knife out of its sheath, and stepped forward.

"I have nothing to say to you..."

"The so-called nuns are ascetics who dedicate their body and mind to the gods. If this is the case, why would you help that blasphemous Shibata?"

Incomprehensible.

Among the people under Shibata's command, only this woman's mood is incomprehensible.She is not a chasing fame and fortune like Kobayashi, let alone a puppet like No. 46 who only obeys Shibata. The happiness of the world should be meaningless to her.

What exactly does she want from Shibata?

"...It has nothing to do with you. It's just a young girl, don't pretend to know everything!"

A blush of excitement flashed across the nun's pale and gloomy face, but she still forced herself to be calm.

Before she finished speaking, the gentle man standing with his sword suddenly burst into laughter:

"There is no need to hide this, Kaoru. Since ancient times, heroes have been saddened by beauty, and the reverse is also applicable, isn't it true? Although you dedicated yourself to the gods when you were young, the young girl's spring heart did not burn to ashes. Shibata It is true that his behavior lacks beauty and restraint, but his sincere love for his wife and daughter is by no means in vain. It is not uncommon for you, who are imprisoned by the boring daily life of the church, to fall in love with him enthusiastically."

"What, Assassin...?!"

"How, miss."

The man turned a deaf ear to the Master's roar, and casually pointed the tip of the sword towards Walnut's throat, with a faint smile on his lips.

"I have frankly told the reason for my master's battle. Now that the lady's doubts have been resolved, I can swing the sword without any worries."

"...That's right. I won't thank you for now."

Hu Tao nodded, slowly and steadily raised the long knife horizontally, and opened the kendo to prepare for battle.

"It is contemptuous of a samurai to have a weak heart for an opponent who is about to fight to the death."

"Oh, isn't this a sensible lady. It's just for this reason, you just need to attack with all your strength."

"Hey, why are you ignoring me on your own? It's a duel, I won't let the young miss fight you one-on-one—"

The archers saw that Assassin was only focusing on the walnut holding the sword, and immediately set up the crossbow with quick eyes and hands, squinting one eye and aiming at the leisurely standing warrior.

"Where is there, how dare I exclude you, an unknown person who bears a similar fate with me. Since ancient times, heroes have been saddened by beauty, and the same is true for you, right?"

Without the slightest tension and killing intent before the life-and-death struggle, Assassin smiled calmly.

"Tch, are you kidding me, I'm different from you."

Archer was sullen and speechless.

"You haven't even met a companion like Missy, you are much more unfortunate than me."

"Haha, that's what you said. Although the master can't be said to be what he wants, but at least he has met an opponent he likes, and he is not dissatisfied."

Still wearing that cool and refreshing expression, the nameless swordsman shook his wide sleeves, and when the blade was raised, it drew a cold arc of light in the air.

"—Then, go on."

The author has something to say: I was sick two days ago and there is no update... Girls have been waiting for a long time, happy National Day!

The body is indeed the capital of everything, Zhu Jun’s home and staying up late should be moderate, I probably have been paralyzed in a chair for too long, yesterday I suddenly got back pain when I stood up, I thought my lower limbs were atrophied... It’s really terrible QuQ

Green Tea and Kojiro have been wanting to write about the rivalry scene =v= The situation is very similar, both are heroic spirits with a false name, their real names are unknown, but they all enjoy it and never complain... Although such a guy is not like Saber So brilliant, he is also a great hero www

43 Act Five

【Otaku Holy Grail War·Twilight of the Fifth Day】

【Green Team Mansion】

…………

"Wu-tao--Hutao? Woo...uh, don't scare me, Hutao!! Hutao, where are you hiding again-?? Stop making trouble, I know you gave birth to me I'm so angry, no matter the keyboard or the washboard, I will kneel, please at least show your face!!"

"Player, be safe and don't be impatient. There is no breath of your twin sister in this mansion, and your shouts cannot reach her ears."

"No, no, it's impossible! How could my lovely sister leave me alone—"

"...Player, there is a sentence that I have been thinking about for a long time, and I don't know whether it is appropriate to say it to you. Your sister... doesn't she often abandon you?"

"You've said it straight—! Ah, walnuts, walnuts...where did you go...Walnuts——!!"

"Calm down, musician! Don't jump out of the window, your sister won't be on the outer wall!"

…………

"..."

The girl with vine-purple short hair quietly opened the half-covered door a few inches, and peered silently through the crack of the door at the miserable scene of howling ghosts and howling wolves in the corridor.After standing still for a long time, the girl carefully pushed the door open and cast a lifeless and empty gaze at the white-haired man leaning against the bed.

"Uncle Kariya... don't tell them, okay?"

"...Aah."

The man raised his gray and haggard face, and spoke in a hoarse but loving voice.

"Now I can only trust that person."

Even if this world that "does not recognize magic" suppresses the engraver's erosion, Matou Kariya's damaged bodily functions cannot be restored.Regarding the fact that Hu Tao, A Miao and Nanako joined the battle instead of him, although Kariya didn't express it verbally, in fact, he was always grateful in his heart.

Walnut told Lancelot what to do next without telling Fuyuki before leaving the mansion. As the master of the command spell in name (it was Kawashima Meu who provided the magic power for Lancelot), Kariya naturally also learned from the knight. Cicada's whereabouts.

However, facing Fuyuki's hysterical and frantic search at this time, Kariya, like Lancelot, chose to keep silent.

Although he didn't spend much time together, he had witnessed Hu Tao's rapid growth from a young girl to a strong woman, and he could see how extraordinary she was.

——The combat configuration decided by Hu Tao is always [reasonable and correct].

As long as you follow her approach, you will surely reach the victory that everyone expects.The crumbling world view will be saved, everything will return to the way it should be, and everyone can live happily and happily.

So, as long as you believe in Hu Tao's judgment as usual, listen to Hu Tao's decision, and let the reality play out like a small theater in her mind...

--but.

"... Can the victory obtained by such means really be called 'the happiness of all'?"

Unknowingly, the man's dry throat was like a faucet that was not tightened, and the true inner voice quietly leaked out with some doubts.

"what?"

Although Xiao Sakura tasted the despair and pain that ordinary people can't understand in a lifetime, she was still ignorant and innocent mentally, and she tilted her delicate neck in confusion.

"Uncle Kariya, did you just... say something?"

"Ah, it's nothing, I'm talking to myself."

Kariya prevaricated clumsily, leaned forward, and stretched out his arms to pull the thin girl close to him.

"...Then, what is Sakura thinking?"

"how to think……"

The girl sat down on the edge of the bed next to Kariya, her big foggy eyes flickered in some trouble.

"Are you talking about... Sister Hutao? I don't really understand..."

"Anything is fine, just talk about how you feel about that person."

"Well……"

The girl flinched slightly, wringing her hands and tilting her head in embarrassment.

"Although I don't quite understand... that person has the same eyes as Uncle Kariya from before."

"what?"

It was really an unexpected answer, and Kariya's voice froze slightly due to astonishment.

"Sakura, 'same as me' means...?"

Seeing the surprised expression on the man's face, she probably thought that her answer was not to his liking, the girl's self-confidence immediately shrank several sizes along with her voice, and her already slender body curled up even tighter.

"Uh-huh……"

How to describe that feeling.

Maybe it's been too long since no one has asked her for advice, Sakura is no longer used to expressing her opinions to the outside world, so she has to fumble for the right words from her dead heart.

"That person...every time he came to say goodbye to me, his eyes were very sad...every time, as if he would never come back. Although sad, but very firm...that person knew it and went out I'll never come back again—knowing that I can't come back, but still determined to go... that's the feeling. Uncle Kariya also had that look in his eyes."

If you take this step, you will not be able to return safely.

Knowing this, there are still reasons to move forward.

Wishful thinking, the foolishness of hitting a stone with an egg, and the steadfastness of nine deaths without regret.

Children are extremely sensitive—just as Sakura vaguely sensed, the present Himizaka Kurumi and the former Matou Kariya once possessed such a similar disposition and awareness.

"Well, uncle...did I say something wrong?"

"No, it's not wrong at all... Sakura is really careful. Uncle didn't even notice..."

The icy scum that had condensed on the fundus of the eyes seemed to disappear in an instant, and Kariya suddenly felt a little dampness and warmth in the eye sockets that he hadn't seen for a long time.

After all... has it been conveyed?

The child whom he had always longed to save with his own hands, but could not confess his true feelings to her, finally realized the pathetic determination he held in his chest when he threw himself into the worm warehouse again and again.For a long time, he only relied on willpower to suppress the pain of the engraved worm gnawing at the flesh and sucking the bone marrow, even though he knew that his end would be a tragic and ugly death, even though he knew that it was impossible to continue after the "bon voyage" "Welcome back", he will still choose to die without hesitation—as long as there is still a glimmer of hope to regain Sakura's free life.

Kariya is not a completely noble and selfless person.On the contrary, he is a humble and selfish little man.

The love for Aoi has nowhere to go, and it is superimposed on the remorse that she gave up her family business and caused Sakura to fall into the devil's den. The purest and blazing flame in this person's life has long been burned out, and only the "rescue Sakura" remains. A handful of ashes that were still warm.Rescue the daughter of the one I love, kill the man who made her cry—in that case, I will surely make her smile happily again.The self who brought back her smile will also have some existence value because of it.

——Sakura doesn't need to know anything, Uncle will take care of everything.

What a beautiful lie.

What you say doesn't count for rewards, and what you want is as long as you are happy, it's all clumsy self-comfort and self-satisfaction.

In fact, I hope someone can understand my feelings.

In fact, I hope that someone will tell me "you didn't do anything wrong".

In fact, I very much hope that I can hear the girl say "thank you" to him in a sweet and tender voice before I stop breathing.

"……uncle?"

"Ah, nothing."

Kariya suddenly came to his senses, his palms were a little stiff and helpless, and lightly rested on the top of the girl's head, caressing gently as if he was worried about breaking a porcelain doll.

"Indeed, that person will rush out even knowing he won't come back... Sakura, do you hope sister Hutao can come back?"

The girl nodded vigorously without hesitation, then hung her head timidly and said:

"Can it really come true, my wish..."

Her reed-like thin body trembled slightly in the wind, like a butterfly that had fallen to the ground and struggled to flap its broken wings.

Kariya was stunned, and his slightly raised mood sank back to the bottom of the valley again.

No wonder she was so negative—until she escaped from Matou's house due to inexplicable time travel, Sakura's prayers and wailings never received a response from the gods.

"Ah, it will definitely come true this time. Uncle assures you."

Unconsciously, the arms around the girl strengthened, as if to burn the last bit of residual heat and protect her from the bitter wind and rain in the world.

Perhaps sensing Kariya's strong will, a serene smile full of reassurance appeared on the young girl's frail face.

"Well. Will definitely come back."

————————————————————————————————————————

at the same time--

"I don't think we can go back."

Nanakusa Izumo clapped his hands together, found a tree stump nearby and sat down.Although he said sensational lines, the boy's expression and tone were extremely calm, and he didn't look like he was on the verge of extinction.

Just half a day ago, Himisaka Kurumi made a sincere request to Izumo for the first time ever, and entrusted him with the division of labor in today's decisive battle.

The so-called "eating soft but not hard" may be a cute point for Two-dimensional characters, but it is definitely not a good quality for social people-it is too easy to be sold by the smiling tiger.

That's how Izumo was sold.

Although he knew that no white lotus could grow in the black mud of Walnut's belly, he was assigned to drag Kaori, who has a negative combat power, to surround Shibata's hometown (by the way, kidnap a young girl)... Is this a human thing? !

What's even more outrageous is that they got lost in the dense sea of ​​trees around the villa! !What was this man thinking about when he chose the location of the house? ! !

...well, he's thinking about taking the Holy Grail and developing an android.He really needs a secret base in the mountains and trees.

"Hey~~ Izumo-kun, you gave up too quickly. Just try harder."

The chestnut-haired girl urged her in a reproachful tone, but there was no panic or anxiety on her face.In fact, instead of showing any signs of fear, she hummed a light tune as if she was on a sightseeing trip in the forest, flipped up her skirt and sat down beside Izumo with her knees tucked in.She raised her hand affectionately to pick off the broken leaves from Izumo's temples, and stuck out her tongue playfully at him.

"Hey, I seem to have lost our way together before. But it's great, as long as I'm with Izumo-kun, I don't feel scared at all. Ah~~ Destiny really repeats itself——Izumo-kun, I will always be with you in the future Am I together?"

"..."

Izumo has not been as responsive as usual.He frowned for a while and looked at the girl's cute and naive demeanor, which resembled a big doll, and gradually showed a bit of a headache, and finally supported his temple with one hand and lowered his face.

"...I said, Kaori."

"what?"

Kaori immediately put on a bright smile with eight teeth flashing, as usual, she opened her soft, sweet and glutinous voice and acted coquettishly.

"Izu~yun~-kun, we've known each other for so long, aren't you cruel enough to reject the poor girl's wish? You won't leave me alone..."

"...Enough is enough."

Izumo stared straight at the innocent and innocent girl in front of him like an angel in a painting, and then - categorically refused.

"Kaori, how long are you going to pretend to be that kind of virtue?"

"…………Eh?"

"Although I don't hate girls who are like little birds, Kaori is not that kind of person at all. To be honest, the sense of disobedience is too strong, and it's very uncomfortable to watch."

"Then, that...?"

Presumably she understood the deep meaning behind the young man's words, for a moment Kaori showed some of the unpreparedness of a child when an adult exposes a lie, half of embarrassment and half ashamed eyes rolled around, and she just opened her mouth anxiously to try to distinguish something , and resignedly under Izumo's extremely penetrating and stern gaze.

"Out...Mr. Yun? I don't understand you..."

The girl's lips opened and closed mechanically, and the fingers that were gripping the front of the front also had some imperceptible convulsions. She looked like a tropical fish that had just been fished out of the water.

"No, you understand."

It was another cold assertion that suppressed emotions to the limit.

The black-haired boy tried his best to turn a blind eye to Kaori's weeping sad expression, picked up a stone expressionlessly to himself, threw it into the air and deftly caught it.

"Xaori's memory has actually been recovered a long time ago. Whether it's your real experience and personality before being kidnapped by Shibata, or the truth about our bad relationship, you have all recalled it. Now that you remember it, don't pretend anymore Acting like an idiot who doesn't know anything—wouldn't that be tantamount to throwing in the towel. I don't remember ever having such a weak friend."

— By the way, this is it.

Izumo has always wanted to convey to Kaori, but he has never been able to find a suitable opportunity to speak.

Since the two of them were liberated from false memories successively, they both realized countless shocking facts that subverted the three views.One of them is: Kaori Shiratori, who held her true self before being brainwashed by Shibata, is not such a delicate character like a small white flower in a greenhouse.In the past two years, she has acted like a silly girl who can be tricked away by a candy in front of Izumo, which is completely a chain reaction caused by the forced rewriting of her memory.

With the removal of the hint, Kaori's mental personality should be restored together with the memory.From Izumo's point of view, she still pretends to be ignorant of the world, just because she "deliberately looks away".

"Kaori Shiratori is a happy and carefree princess in a fairy tale castle, and Nanakusa Izumo is a loyal knight who takes good care of her; they grew up together intimately, and will follow each other happily every day from now on"——this passage The fabricated story is so beautiful that the girl who is set as the protagonist is reluctant to let go.So, she stubbornly continued to play the ignorant princess, only wanting to indulge in this cherry pink dream forever.

However, just like a beautiful daydream cannot stay awake for a long time, a carefree fairy tale will eventually come to an end.If you insist on staying and refusing to return to the sun, the ending can only be to decay into dust together with the abandoned stage.

So, no matter how painful and unbearable it was when waking up from the dream... It's almost time to let the illusion in Kaori's heart come to an end.

——When are you going to pretend.

——How long do you want to escape from reality?

"..."

It seemed as if centuries had passed before the girl standing stiffly like a doll held a lock of curly hair and moved her lips slightly.

"...Sorry. The days I spent with Izumo were really fun, and I seem to have gotten carried away."

No longer dragging the soft ending sound, and no longer accompanied by a coy demeanor.

Even though her appearance and clothes remained the same, the girl was completely different from her childish appearance just now.If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Izumo would have thought that this stupid girl had just been hit by a ten-year rocket.

Without waiting for Izumo's answer, Kaori suddenly knelt down in front of him with a plop, and tightly grasped the boy's hands on her knees with unexpectedly terrifying strength.

"Izumo, won't you hate me? ——Let me tell you in advance, I'm also conscious. If I become myself, Izumo must be hated by me. I'd rather keep playing that idiot Kaori."

"...Wait. Wait a minute. What did you say?"

The position was reversed in an instant, and this time it was Izumo's turn to plummet into the mist with cold sweat on his head.

"I mean, wouldn't Izumo hate me if I was my old self? No more acting like a baby to you, no more little girlish accents, no more silly things to make you laugh...even if In this way, you won't hate me?"

"So, so wait. Why do I hate you for this kind of thing? Rather, the idiot Kaori is more troublesome..."

"Huh?!"

Kaori, who was lying on Izumo's lap and depressed, seemed to be struck by lightning, and immediately raised her face exaggeratedly, but the top of her head hit the boy's jaw impartially, and there was a loud and dull "gudong" immediately.

"Izumo, don't you like idiot girls——?!!!"

"...I'm so rude. Is it necessary to be surprised to that extent? What image do I have in your eyes, after all."

With one hand, Izumo rubbed his chin that had been knocked white and red, and while gasping for air, he spoke bitterly.

(Wait... No way. Could it be that Kaori insisted on the appearance of an ignorant girl to escape reality, and just wanted to pretend to be stupid to please me? In another sense, it's so stupid... But thinking too much I seem to be more stupid... Anyway, why did she mistake me for a silly girl. Did I say something that made her misunderstand...?)

The answer came sooner than expected.

Kaori made a loud confession that was enough to shake off the dense shadow above her head, and Izumo almost crushed the tree stump under him into wood powder on the spot.

"But, but! Miss Walnut said, based on her years of experience as a fan of Hibari Kyouya in middle school, that person only treats children and small animals tenderly, and especially loves a chubby bird and a A chubby hedgehog, so the Izumo based on him must also like the stupid girl who is chubby from the outside to the inside like a little fat bird! Miss Walnut is really a reliable senior in life, you see, she kindly made a plan for me The fattening plan—"

"...Very well, I understand. You are still an idiot. Let's talk about my hobbies later. In short, I will turn against you and kill that aunt first."

The author has something to say: I'll be a little wordy when it's almost over... I'm careless in this article. I suddenly expanded the original characters too much, and everyone's roles were chopped up. There is no expected group portrait effect at all. In short, the writing is not strong enough to fail I'm sorry, I'll pay attention next time... At least I want to give each group of characters a separate shot before the end.This chapter is about the story of idiots and idiots. [Mystery] In a nutshell, it is Yanzakura finally ushering in a happy reunion, Kaori and Izumo's idiot couple attributes are fully opened, and the chairman of the committee by the Daming Lake lies on the gun all the time [no mistake]

Although he has actually become a different person, Izumo is still being substituted in various ways... Kurumi said to his face, "You are a good man on your own", and then turned around and told Kaori, "He must have inherited something from the prototype! For example Taste!" ——What a sad existence artificial people are.

Before being brainwashed, Kaori was a gentle and sensible girl, but she had a negative IQ on questions about Izumo (of course, Walnut also had a negative IQ on Quege).To be honest, I planned to write a past episode of Yun X Kaori, but I always felt that "who wants to read the original CP romance!" OTZ

44 All the goodness in this world

"I... If only I hadn't given birth to this kind of child—————!"

The woman's wolf-like mournful cry echoed empty in the room filled with baby clothes and toys, but as cold and dead as a mourning hall.

The cradle had been removed from the mother's hands, but the miserable image still swayed in her trance vision.The intense pain-like feeling spread from the central system to the whole body, and the mother vaguely understood that the labor pain this time would never stop.

There used to be a full hope in her cradle, but now it has been turned into a whirlpool of pain by the willfulness of "God".

An endless, dark and hopeless vortex that cannot penetrate a ray of light.

There is no love, no satisfaction, no joy and encouragement that a mother should have.It was as if a large piece of her chest had just been gouged out with a sharp blade, and all the joy and anticipation flowed out from the knife, leaving only a hollow hole where the wind leaked.

It was—a never-ending nightmare.

【Sing it...】

When she woke up from the lethargy of childbirth and was waiting impatiently to embrace her newborn, the mother heard the call of "God".

【Your child is the chosen one. 】

【He is a noble person who will offer himself to the world. 】

【Your child will be more outstanding than ordinary people, and will reach God's feet earlier than ordinary people. 】

[Then, he will become the cornerstone of the world and be with Almighty God forever. 】

【God bestows supreme blessings on your children. 】

【Congratulations.Cheers.Then, praise the goodness of God. 】

"No...please, don't..."

【——The mother of "Human Pillar"——】

"Don't...ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!"

…………

Since the formation of this world, such unbearable tragedies have been staged time and time again.In order to support the operation of the laws of the world, the short-lived "human pillars" are used as living sacrifices—or disposable consumables, which are continuously produced by "gods".

God does not take this as cruelty, and even proudly announces his resolution to the parents who gave birth to the human pillar time and time again.

A matter of course.

In the will of God, there is no more sublime phrase than "dedicate oneself to the life and death of the world".

But for parents who are ordinary human beings, it is tantamount to a catastrophe for a child to be predicted to be short-lived at birth.If a child is born crippled or dies of an illness, they may be able to wipe away their tears and give birth to a healthy new life. However, the "human pillar" is different-they have complete or even supernormal intelligence and self-awareness, desire for life, Attachment to parents is no less than ordinary people.

Therefore, despite lamenting and crying, parents still love their children with kindness and despair until the child dies before them.

Every kiss is one step closer to the future forever
