Yae Sakura!Beep!

The Almighty waved his hand, signaling to the few people standing there to follow his pace and walk into the shrine.

How could this be!

Hitomi, who hid and heard what they said, took two steps back in fright.

Want to hold a sacrifice in advance? !

Such words... such words!

Sister Sakura will run away with Sister Rin in time!

She looked panicked, as if she didn't know what to do.

Seeing the group of people led by the God Lord walking farther and farther, Tong Tong became more and more flustered.

No!

We can't let them take Sister Rin away!

Tong's heart tightened, and he hurried towards Rin's room with all his strength.

At least!At least find a way to let sister Rin hide first!

…………

Sakura relaxed and walked back and forth in the room.

She packed her luggage carefully, including neatly folded clothes, tightly wrapped dry food, and some small items that might be used on the road, as well as the cost of packing.

A large bulging package was tied on Sakura's back, and she tied a knot in front of her chest, fastening it tightly.

It's still a little too heavy, maybe it's because there are too many things in it, even if it's tied tightly to the body, it will feel like it's falling down.

Sakura had no choice but to hold the bag on her body with both hands to prevent it from falling.

"Well, everything is ready, you must wait for me, Rin, Hitomi."

She smiled reassuringly, opened the wooden door of the room, and walked out.

The wind at night was still a bit chilly, and as soon as Sakura went out, she couldn't help shivering even though she was only wearing a thin shrine maiden uniform.

It's a bit cold, Rin may not be able to stand the night wind, and he will have to wear more clothes for Rin later.

She shrank her neck, thinking so.

Then, I fell into a beautiful fantasy about the future.

Wait a little longer, my sister is here to take you out now, to escape from this village...

After we escape, we will find the best doctor and let him cure Rin's illness...

Then bring Hitomi, the three of us, and go eat the best things together...

Then go to the mountains and watch the cherry blossoms together...

"Ta! Tat!"

She ran and ran to Rin's room.

She opened the door hastily, just like she used to, if it was normal, Rin would definitely put on a helpless expression and give her a lot of lectures, right?

'Sister, you are so reckless again. '

'Sister, don't run around like this all the time, what if you get hurt? '

'Sister, you have to look like a girl. '

He must have said something like that.

"Rin! Big sister..."

Shouting excitedly, Sakura looked into the room.

"……cold……?"

No one is empty.

The quilt was also stacked neatly.

"... Hitomi?"

No one responded, and Sakura's heart sank to the bottom of the valley in an instant.

The feeling of uneasiness, like a wave, kept coming.

"Sakura, why are you here?"

Behind him, a man standing there who didn't know when was looking at her with his hands clasped together.

Sakura knew that this voice belonged to a man who was honored by the Yae villagers as the Lord God, and it was the voice of her and Rin's father.

Her pupils trembled sharply, as if thinking of something bad.

The luggage, which had been held on the back by hand until it did not fall, fell suddenly and fell to the ground because it lost the support of the hand.

"The sacrifice has begun ahead of schedule."

how come……

"Rin has been taken to the altar."

Why……

"It's time for you to go, too."

An unprecedented despair eroded her heart.

Chapter 17 Chapter 16 The Revenge of the Sakura Fox

"rustle--!"

The cool wind moved the trees around the shrine, and the collision of branches and leaves made a subtle sound.

A pink-haired girl in a shrine maiden costume followed behind a middle-aged man. In her hand, she held a sword that was almost as long as her body. Both hands were tightly grasped, and the fingertips were a little white.

Her heart could not calm down, she was just subconsciously following the man in front of her.

How to do how to do……

Why did the sacrifice suddenly come earlier? It was such a coincidence...

She lowered her head, and in the dark night, a large shadow covered her face, making her expression invisible at the moment.

Obviously...Obviously just a little longer, I can escape with Rin and Hitomi...

Along the way, the two were silent. They walked out of the shrine, passed through the torii gate, and walked down the stairs. At that moment, Sakura looked down at the brightly lit Yae village in the distance.

She bit her lip.

Rin, my sister will save you right away...

…………

Entering Yae Village, like every time there is a sacrifice, there is no one in all the houses, and they all ran to the open space specially reserved for sacrifices, waiting for the arrival of the Lord God and the Witch.

Walking straight from the entrance of Yae Village, all the houses passing by were without lights, and it was dark and silent. Only in the far distance, there were dots of light, guiding the two of them forward.

Walk in the dark, go to the light.

The God Lord walking in front has not spoken, and Sakura naturally will not open her mouth either.

She looked at the man's indifferent back, and her own eyes also became indifferent.

A month ago, her first sacrifice was also completed under the guidance of this person. Without her own will, she endured the uncomfortable feeling, completed the sacrifice, and carried a life on her back.

But this time, this time it won't be at your mercy.

She lowered her head and looked at the sword in her hand.

This time, I want to rescue Rin and escape with her!

With her eyes lowered, she followed the pace of the person in front of her, walked into the sacrificial place, and passed through the crowd.

On the high platform, a little pink-haired girl with twin ponytails in a plain white kimono was kneeling in the center.

Her face was pale, and her body looked weak, as if even the slightest breeze could knock her down.

A bunch of black and white intertwined cloth strips were wrapped around her hands, making her unable to move, her eyes were closed tightly, and even her breathing was so slight that it was almost imperceptible.

With one hand on the tachi hanging from her waist, Sakura stepped slowly up the stairs leading to the high platform step by step.

Walking in front of the little girl, Sakura stood still.

The pink-haired girl kneeling on the ground seemed to feel her approach, and her body trembled slightly, but then she didn't respond at all.

This is today's 'sacrifice', and it is also my sister...

She slowly put her hand on the handle of the knife expressionlessly.

"Shin..."

The tachi was drawn slowly, but in the end it came out completely.

"Clap!"

She let go, and let the scabbard fall to the ground with a loud noise. Looking at the 'sacrifice' in front of her, she raised the Taidao high with both hands.

As if feeling something, the face of the pink-haired girl kneeling on the ground turned even paler. She closed her eyes tightly and never opened them even for a moment.

Pursing her lips tightly, she raised her head, exposing her slender, snow-white gooseneck unreservedly to Sakura's eyes.

"brush--!"

That was not the sound of sharp knives cutting through flesh.

The girl froze for a moment, she gently opened her eyes, the cloth in her hands had been cut off, and the things that restricted her movement disappeared.

"cold!"

Holding the handle of the tachi tightly with one hand, the other reached out in front of her, and Sakura shouted, trying to grab her arm.

"Hold my hand quickly! Let's escape!"

She tightly grasped the girl's snow-white wrist, trying to pull her up.

The pink-haired girl opened her light red pupils and looked at Sakura, her older sister.

pat!

Then, she fell limply to the ground.

Sakura was stunned, she grabbed the girl's wrist, her pupils constricted.

"It's useless……"

The Almighty, who had been standing behind, seemed not at all surprised by what happened in front of him. He still looked at the two of them with his hands behind his back, and said.

"Although I didn't expect Rin's illness to be so serious, she is so weak that she can't even walk, but just in case, her hamstrings have been cut, and she will never be able to stand up again in this life. "

"I'm sorry... my sister..."

A childish voice sounded.

It wasn't Rin's gentle voice with a hint of sickness and hoarseness, it was soft, waxy, and a little unclear, like the voice of a baby still babbling, with a faint milky smell, the voice of a young girl sound.

Sakura knew that she was very familiar with this voice. More than a month ago, this voice broke into her and Rin's lives, and since then, they have been facing each other day and night. It is like their family.

No, that's their family.

Her pupils trembled, and she met the gaze that was staring at her, and saw the pair of eyes staring at her.

Inside the pale red pupils, there are dots of dots, like broken starlight, and layers of colorful light spots are hidden in the center of the pupils, dazzling and dazzling, as if a whole world is hidden.

It is also because of these beautiful eyes that Rin gave her a name.

"... Hitomi...?"

An unbelievable voice emerged from Sakura's pale lips.

"Well, it's Hitomi..."

She lowered her head, avoiding Sakura's sight, her eyes seemed to be glittering, Hitomi said in a weak voice that only the two of them could hear.

"I'm sorry... sister, Hitomi, I can't do it alone, take sister Rin to escape..."
