Yae Sakura!Beep!

You just want to kill all those villagers, right?

Regardless of jealousy or hatred, I can accept you, and I will always be with you, tolerate you, and meet all your needs.

Because, I am you...

Come on, give your body to me, and I will help you fulfill all your wishes...

The voice gradually became louder, as if she wanted to occupy Sakura's entire world, her heartbeat gradually accelerated, her body trembled, as if she was about to accept something.

desire?

Hitomi will try her best to fulfill her sister's wishes.

wishes or something...

Hitomi, is it a fulfillment of Sister Sakura's wish?

Thinking of something, Sakura's heart twitched fiercely.

I don't want any wishes to come true!

At that moment, strong sadness welled up in her heart, and she completely squeezed that strange voice into a corner.

They are all liars!

In the corner by the wall, Sakura leaned against the wall and slowly slipped and fell to the ground. She avoided everyone's eyes, and no one noticed the slightest movement here.

There was never... never a wish that could be fulfilled.

She put her arms around her knees and buried her cheeks in her thighs, not knowing whether she was crying or not.

Everything is just despair under the skin of hope.

Chapter 33, Chapter 31

In the dark night, people in black robes walk in the back mountain.

"Tsk!"

"Damn it! It's almost successful, but what happened to those memories!"

"It actually ruined my plan twice in a row!"

The man in black robe wearing a fox mask sounded very upset.

Suddenly, the man in black stopped and looked ahead, where there seemed to be traces of animals walking by.

"found it."

The irritability in the words disappeared, and the man in black raised a hand. In that hand, he was holding a crystal the size of a thumb, exuding a strange aura.

"Tomorrow, a good show will be staged."

…………

"Why does that kind of monster appear in the village?!"

In the early morning, Yae Village no longer had the tranquil and peaceful atmosphere of the past, but became sad and heavy.

The villagers gathered around several corpses covered with cloth, whispering to each other, and there was a trace of fear hidden on everyone's face.

"My friend, was also..."

"Yesterday was fine..."

Some villagers sighed, shook their heads, and couldn't bear to look at the corpses on the ground.

"Do you think this is the punishment given to us by the gods?"

Among the crowd, there was an old man who suddenly spoke out.

He looked pious, and looked like he was serious.

"Maybe the Lord God is angry again!"

The villagers were quiet for a moment, then whispered.

"so what should I do now?"

"By the way, I heard the Lord God say that there is a foreigner living in the shrine. It may be because of this that God is angry!"

A villager suddenly remembered something and said in a low voice.

"No way?"

"You mean the white-haired man who expelled the monster yesterday?"

"But I think that foreigner seems to be quite a nice person?"

The villager whose life was saved yesterday was surprised.

"You look at people's beauty, right? You really don't feel ashamed!"

Next to him, his companion replied, which made the villager blush.

"Then if the foreigner is driven away, won't the Lord God be angry?"

"But now we have to appease Lord Shenming's anger first!"

After a while, the villagers started talking again.

"Sacrifice! We must hold another sacrifice!"

The old man who mentioned that Lord Shenming was angry spoke again, and made the villagers quiet for a while.

"But, hasn't there been a sacrifice this year?"

"There is no way to do this, but as long as the sacrifice is held, the anger of the gods will definitely be appeased!"

"Then let's go find Lord God Master quickly."

…………

Sitting on the Ruyuan in the courtyard of the shrine, Karen looked at the sky, and it was almost noon.

She rubbed her stomach, it was flat, and looked outside the shrine, but there seemed to be no movement at all.

"Why isn't Sakura here yet?"

At this time usually, Sakura came to look for her with lunch.

I always feel that being taken care of by Sakura like this, I am almost becoming a useless person, and I come to open my mouth and stretch out my hands every day.

The slender legs wrapped in stockings kicked hard, and Karen stood up from the wet edge, and she walked out of the yard.

"cherry!"

Looking at the open space in front of the main hall, there was no one there.

"……not here?"

Callen ran to the back room again.

"I'm so hungry, Sakura!"

"Is the meal ready?"

Open the door of the back room.

There was still no one there, but there was a plate on the table with a big rice ball on it, which made Kallen's eyes shine.

She couldn't wait to go forward, picked up a rice ball the size of her head, and found a small note beside it.

"There are rice balls on the table, don't forget to wash your hands before eating, I went out beforehand——Sakura."

The delicate and small font came into Kallen's eyes, and she tilted her head.

He walked back to the yard with the rice balls and sat on the edge outside the house.

She likes the architectural style of this extreme eastern island very much, and especially likes to sit in this place called Ruyuan and enjoy the beautiful scenery outside the yard, which makes her feel comfortable.

"Sakura...you are so busy every day."

Holding the rice ball in both hands, Kallen opened her small mouth, took a big bite on it, squinted her eyes contentedly, and chewed.

Her legs were hanging out of Ruoyuan, swaying back and forth, lost in thought.

The monster from yesterday is a bit similar to the Houkai beast created by the organization using Houkai...

She thought of the experiments she had seen in the organization before, and it was those utterly devoid of human experiments that made her defect with the box that the organization used for research.

Could it be that this country also has Honkai Energy?

Frowning slightly, Karen was a little worried that the peace of this country would be ruined by those things called Honkai Energy.

Suddenly, Karen thought of the box that she regarded as a scourge, and a bad premonition rose in her heart, and then she shook her head violently to dispel this feeling.

That thing is still sealed in the box, it's impossible.

In that box, the devil...

Karen stopped thinking about those messy things, she savored the rice ball in her hand carefully.

The eyes are bright, the onigiri made by Sakura is really delicious!

Squinting her eyes beautifully, Karen ate more than half of the rice ball in a few mouthfuls. The taste of pickled vegetables in the rice ball made her want to stop.

Thinking about the food in her own country, such as looking up to the starry sky, Karen felt that if she returned to her hometown, she might starve to death.

"big sister!"

In the distance, a little girl's voice came, which made Karen stunned, and she followed the sound.

"big sister!"

A little girl in her teens ran into the shrine with a helpless look on her face.

Karen recognized it. When she followed Sakura to Yae Village that day, she also saw this little girl among the group of children she met.

"Please! Help my sister!"

She stumbled over and threw herself on Karen's legs, crying.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

Karen held the rice ball in one hand and looked at the little girl suspiciously.

"My sister has been arrested! She will be used as a sacrifice to God!"

Holding Kallen's legs, the little girl was crying, her face was pale, she was panting, and she looked panicked.

"You are so powerful! Please save her!"

Karen was a little surprised when she heard what the little girl said.

Sacrifice?

She knew that such cruel ancient customs were preserved in many places, but she did not expect that such a peaceful place like Yae Village would also have these customs.

After two or three bites of the rice ball in her hand, Karen smiled softly. She stroked the little girl's head, trying to calm down her frightened heart.

"do not be afraid!"

She gave a reassuring look.

"Big sister will definitely protect you!"

Chapter 34, Chapter 32

In the scorching sun at noon, Karen put on her coat and rushed down the mountain.

She didn't have time to think about where Sakura would be at this time. She heard from the little girl that the sacrifice was about to begin, and Karen was afraid that if she went too late, she would be too late to save the child who was being sacrificed.

Arriving at Yae Village, looking from the outside, it was quiet inside, and the villagers who were usually working were gone. Karen ran in without stopping.

On the high platform used for sacrifice in the village, a little girl less than ten years old was lying on it wearing a mask of Inari God. Around the high platform, there were shimenawa ropes, and the villagers all surrounded the altar, bowing their heads. Head, no one made a sound, with a devout expression on his face.

The girl's face was blocked by the Inari mask, and her expression could not be seen, but her two little hands were tightly grasping the long kimono sleeves, and her immature body was shaking .

Seeing this, Karen felt anxious and wanted to rush forward.
