back inside

"Brother, come back. What does father want from you? Sakura who was sitting on the tatami turned around and asked. Rin who was sitting on the bed also cast a curious look.

"It's nothing, he just asked me how I was doing, nothing else."I waved my hand gently to express that it was nothing serious and I didn't intend to talk about what happened just now in front of Sakura and Rin.

"By the way, I have something to show you tomorrow."After getting closer, I looked at the two of them very happily and said

"What is Brother?"

"Let’s not talk about it today. Let’s rest first and look forward to tomorrow."

I sat on the tatami with my hands behind my back and looked at the ceiling.

"I plan to start practicing my sword skills again tomorrow. What will you do, Sakura?"I asked Sakura softly.

"Really? Then please allow me to join you."Sakura answered me as gently as water.

"Okay, I understand. Sakura, you have almost learned the sword moves. You just need to practice more from now on. Let’s start some strength training tomorrow. It will be very hard. Just be prepared." I thought for a moment. Touching Sakura's hair and said

"Yes, I will try my best."Sakura tilted her head.

After that, the three of them chatted for a few more words, and Rin began to yawn.

"It's almost time for bed."Sakura glanced at the moonlight outside, stood up with a smile, went to the closet and took out the bedding. I originally thought Sakura would let me take it back to my room, but I saw her making the bed as it was yesterday.

I saw He didn't say anything, and Rin didn't seem to object.

At night

, I lay on the bed and closed my eyes, but I couldn't sleep at all. I thought of Sakura last night. I opened my eyes slightly and looked at Sakura sleeping in the bed next to her. There seems to be no abnormality

"Was that a dream or reality last night~" I muttered softly.

I thought about it for a long time and still couldn't decide.

"If it were a dream, it would be too real....."After that, I fell into a deep sleep.

After a while, there was a noise next to me..........

"Hey, drink!"

In the afternoon, Sakura was practicing sword moves in the courtyard. I sat cross-legged in the corridor, with Sakura Fukiyuki and Shirogane swords on both sides. I am now a little concerned about what happened during the battle that day. The giant bear rushed towards me that day, but I saw it What will happen in the next few seconds, I'm not sure what it is.

I once thought it was a skill. Then I carefully searched the skill disk, but I checked every one and couldn't find a matching skill.

In addition, I also I have researched the Hi Sakura Hell, but every time I tried to use it, I felt a tearing pain in my muscles that stopped me. After repeated attempts to use it, I confirmed it.

"My muscle strength can’t keep up. Age is a flaw. It’s over. My body on the other side is even weaker than this....."I opened my eyes, and Sakura had just finished practicing a set of sword skills and was walking towards me.

"How are you doing, brother?"

"Well, there isn’t much problem with your movements anymore, all that’s left is to practice more and increase your proficiency."I watched Sakura hand the towel to her.

After taking off her shoes, Sakura closed her eyes and leaned on my shoulder. I reached out and combed Sakura's hair.

"Alas~" I sighed softly after stroking it for a while.

"Brother? What happened to my hair?"Sakura opened her eyes and touched her hair and asked doubtfully.

"No, it's none of your business, I'm just thinking about the newly learned sword skills. I've learned them but can't use them well."I said a little absent-mindedly.

"Brother, you are already amazing now. I think you have surpassed many spiritual sword holders in the past."Sakura changed positions.

"Maybe..."

Sakura and I chatted about some areas where she still needs to improve.

At this time, my father walked up from outside the shrine and saw the two of us walking over. I patted Sakura twice to remind her. I opened my eyes and saw my father walking up. He sat up and was sitting next to me.

"Father/Father"

"Um."

My father glanced at Sakura, then looked at me

"The target has been decided, and the sacrifice will be held ten days later according to the rules. Be prepared and teach Sakura the process in the next few days."After that, he left straight away. I looked at my father without saying a word, his face a little gloomy.

"Brother? What is the sacrifice?"Ying frowned and tugged at my clothes and asked with confusion.

I looked at Sakura and she was a little uneasy, but I didn't want to tell her such things. I hugged Sakura with one hand and patted her gently. He whispered from behind:

"It's okay. Just leave it to me. You don't have to worry about anything."

"...Well, I listen to my brother..."Sakura just buried her face in my shoulder and remained silent.

The two sat next to each other in silence for a long time. I even thought Sakura had fallen asleep, and I just watched the sun go down quietly.

"Brother....Actually, that night was not a dream~"

Suddenly Sakura said something, and I was stunned for a while before I realized what was happening. I suddenly felt a little stiff and my breathing was a little suppressed.

I pursed my dry lips and turned them stiffly. He looked at Sakura with his neck

, his green eyes were full of smiles, the corners of his eyes shrank like willow leaves, and the corners of his mouth were turned up hard.

"Sakura, what are you doing?..."I looked at Sakura like this and was speechless for a moment.

"After all, that day, my brother’s heartbeat suddenly accelerated...."Sakura said in a very playful voice

"Well, actually, I....."I didn't know what to do about this for a while.

But Sakura didn't care. She stood up with a smile, put on her shoes, turned around and said to me:

"Well, I'm going to prepare dinner first."

After that, I jumped away humming a tune from Yae Village, leaving me alone in the wind.

"cherry...Is that that kind of character?"I looked up at the sky after watching Sakura go away, and began to doubt my life......

——————

Because of things during the day, I didn't dare to look at Sakura at dinner. In the evening, Sakura went back to Rin's room. After I made sure that my father had also returned to the room, I went to the side hall and took away Sakura Fukiyuki.

"Rin, I'm back."I opened the door very excitedly

"Brother, what do you want to show me?"Rin looked very excited after waiting all day.

I went to the window and opened it, then turned off the lights, and then wisps of moonlight spread into the room like silver threads.

"elder brother?"Rin asked, but Sakura didn't show any signs that everything I did was normal.

"Let's watch the cherry blossoms together."

Then I looked at the surprised expressions of the two people and pulled out Sakurabuki with a smile.

I saw the Sakura-colored light flashing again on Sakurabuki, and at the same time, cherry blossom petals began to appear around me.

"Wow! My sister is Sakura~!"

"Yes, it’s cherry blossoms!"

Rin looked very excited, shaking her sister's arm, but Sakura could only pat Rin's arm to calm her down a little, and then Rin walked towards me with eyes full of stars.

"Can I touch these cherry blossoms?"

"Well, of course you can, but you may not be able to touch it."I smiled bitterly. I still felt a little uncomfortable that I couldn't fully satisfy my sister's wishes.

"Um?"

Rin opened her little hand to catch a petal, and soon the petal turned into particles of light in her hand.

"Uh-huh~!"Rin didn't seem to believe that he couldn't really touch it, and continued to grab the petals in the air. Sakura, who hadn't seen Rin so energetic in a long time, said:

"Rin, pay attention to your body and don't do too much exercise!"But the cherry blossoms like this look like they want to go forward and catch a few cherry blossom petals.

"I see! elder sister!"Although I responded to my sister's instructions, I didn't seem to listen. I still jumped up and down and grabbed the petals.

"Really, geez~~"Sakura said with a helpless expression, but she also looked very happy.

I leaned against the window and looked at Rin, who was holding Sakura.

Occasionally, Sakura glanced at me, then slowly walked towards me and pointed at my hair.

"Brother, your hair?"

"Um?"I reached out and grabbed my hair and found that it had grown a lot and was shining faintly. At the same time, there were many cherry blossoms floating on it.

"Wow~ It turns out that the cherry blossoms are floating out from here, but when did my hair grow so long?"With my movements, the number of cherry blossoms increased, and Rin became more and more excited.,

"Okay, Rin, it's almost done. If you continue to play, it will have an impact on your body. You can watch it again anytime you want."I glanced at Rin and saw that she didn't stop at all, so I shouted softly.

"Um! Ahem."Hearing that Rin finally calmed down, Sakura, who heard the cough, quickly brought a glass of water and handed it to Rin.

"Really, let’s just say it’s too much!"Ying Jiao was angry, but her face didn't look angry at all.

"Hey, I'm sorry~" Rin took a sip of water and said playfully, sticking out her little tongue.

Sakura lit the oil lamp again, and I put the knife back, and then I found that my hair was back to its original state.

"Sure enough, it's because of this knife."I touched my shorter hair

"Then I put the knife back."Then I went to the side hall.

When I came back, Sakura had made the bed again, and Rin had already fallen asleep, but this time I was a little panicked. That kind of thing happened during the day. Looking at Sakura, I was at a loss.

"It's okay, brother."Sakura noticed that I was a little worried but looked at me tenderly.

It seems that tonight is another night with complicated emotions.....

————————

A few nights ago

, there was a large house in Yae Village. Calling it big was just a comparison with the surrounding houses.

In a dark lobby, an old woman with her eyes closed sat in the main seat. There were a bunch of middle-aged people sitting on the left and right of the stage, and a young man kneeling in the middle was talking.

After a while, the young man finally finished speaking.

After listening, the old woman opened her eyes and asked with a voice that sounded like claws rubbing against a board:

"Are you saying that the boy from the Yae family used a sword skill that no one had ever seen before, and then killed the monster in one fell swoop?"

"Yes!"The young man lowered his head

"Are you talking nonsense?"The old woman asked again with a slightly skeptical tone.

"Absolutely not! If you don’t believe it, you can ask other guards! They can all testify!"The young man's body was shaking when he answered.

"Okay, I understand, come and reward me, you go down."The old woman waved her hand and asked the young man to go down.

"Thanks! Thanks! Mother-in-law!"The young man kowtowed several times and then exited the lobby. When he came to the door of the house, a middle-aged man handed the young man a small can.

"Get it!"

"Yes Yes! Thanks! Thanks!"

The young man opened the small jar and saw that it was not filled with gold and silver, but only a jar of water. However, the young man was very happy and ran home with the treasure in his arms.

Back to the lobby

"Everyone, you have also heard that the boy from the Yae family seems to have extraordinary talents and even used new sword moves. I have never seen anyone in the Yae family understand new sword moves in my life."The old woman tapped the stone tiles on the ground with her crutch and said

"Well, it is indeed unusual. I think the idea proposed by my mother-in-law is good. The Yae family has indeed controlled this village for too long."A middle-aged man whispered

"I don't think we should be too hasty, it's better to observe."A middle-aged woman said

"No, it should be as early as possible..."

"...."

The old woman listened to the people below arguing, and she was roughly divided into two parts. One part thought that she should implement her plan immediately, and the other part thought that she should wait and see.....

""Boom!"

The old woman knocked the ground with her stick.

"Okay, stop arguing!"

The scene suddenly became quiet.

"Now that we have decided to do something, we must make it perfect! So let’s wait and see for now."

The two groups who were still arguing just now agreed immediately, and it can be seen that they were in awe of the old woman.

After the discussion, everyone came out of the lobby and under the moonlight they could see that all the middle-aged people were in the village. People with less status and language rights, the old woman who came out last is the oldest person in the village and the person with the highest status in the village besides Yae Shrine.

"Humph, it seems like we need to discuss it with the Eightfold God Lord."
