In the forest, Sasuke stopped to rest. After all, he had been on the road since last night, almost crossing the distance of four or five countries. Even with the support of the Demon Refining Pot, he was still a little tired now.

After finding a shady spot, Sasuke stopped and looked around. Feeling that there was no danger, he said, "Let's rest here for a while. I guess you are tired too."

"I'm not tired," Shion said angrily, patting Sasuke's shoulder. However, seeing a few beads of sweat leaking from Sasuke's forehead, she followed her words and jumped down from behind Sasuke.

"Hey, it turns out you can get tired too. Humph, I thought you were a monster. You never feel tired."

Seeing Shion's normal expression, Sasuke said helplessly: "Miss, I am also a human being, not a machine. I haven't rested since last night. Do you think I can stop being tired?"

With that said, Sasuke found a clean place, sat down cross-legged, and prepared to restore the consumed chakra.

Shion was standing next to Sasuke, looking at him with a pair of bright blue eyes, sizing up Sasuke, and unconsciously thought, well, this bastard is not bad looking.

Sasuke closed his eyes to gather his energy and stopped paying attention to Shion. The air around him felt a little condensed for a while.After all, they were in the forest. Neither of them spoke. They could only hear the rustling of leaves coming from the dense forest. Ziyuan looked into the dark depths of the forest and felt that there were unknown eyes staring at her, as if they were... A beast, like some kind of terrifying monster.

For a moment, Ziyuan's heart suddenly rose. Is there really a ghost here? Thinking of this, Ziyuan came to Sasuke, patted his shoulder, and said in horror: "Hey, you bastard, get up, there is a ghost here. move."

Interrupted by Shion, Sasuke could not calm down and immediately stopped the recovery of chakra. When he opened his eyes, he saw Shion looking like a frightened deer.But he saw that her face was pale, her blue pupils projected a color of fear, and she had a panicked expression.

"Oh, Miss, aren't you afraid of everything? Besides, you are a witch, how can you be afraid of ghosts?"

Sasuke looked heartless, and Shion could hear gloating from his tone. Looking at Sasuke, a little girl-like resentment arose in Shion's heart for no reason. She stamped her foot and said, "You This bastard, it’s true that I’m a miko, but it’s not my fault that I’m afraid of ghosts. As a man, don’t you know how to be considerate of me?”

"Okay, okay." Sasuke waved his hand, "My eldest lady, this is all my fault. I didn't consider your feelings. I apologize to you."

Although Sasuke's tone was not sincere, it made Shion feel a lot more balanced. She pouted slightly and muttered: "Okay, bastard, I know you are tired, just rest here, I'm not afraid anymore." .”

As he said that, Shion sat next to Sasuke, buried his head in his knees, and said no more words.

This little girl

Sasuke shook his head, closed his eyes, and continued practicing.

After a while, Shion raised her head, and Sasuke's figure was reflected in her eyes. Staying next to Sasuke, Shion actually felt a sense of peace of mind. As she watched intently, the jade-like face gradually appeared.

There was a moment of excitement, thinking that this bastard wasn't so annoying now.

Feeling the tranquility brought by Sasuke, Shion relaxed a lot and moved her body. In the end, she was almost next to Sasuke. She wanted to experience this feeling more deeply.

"Huh, that's an advantage for you."

Shion leaned gently against Sasuke's side, keeping only a small distance. Because she was weak, she wanted to seek strong protection, and Sasuke was now her backer.By Sasuke's side, Shion seemed to feel completely included. Just looking at him, the fear and hesitation in her heart disappeared without a trace...

Since Maitreya's death, Ziyuan has not been able to feel this kind of peace of mind. Without her spiritual support, she has been in panic all day long, and acted like a stranger to avoid entering to protect herself. This has been going on for more than ten years, if not In order to complete the mission of the miko, she might have collapsed long ago.

Feeling at peace, Ziyuan relaxed for a while. Ruyu's face showed a peace of mind and a smile that she had not seen for many years. Her consciousness gradually sank. Because she didn't sleep last night, she was so sleepy that she was about to fall asleep for a while.

Feeling the pressure coming from his shoulders, Sasuke opened his eyes, but what he saw was Shion's cute sleeping face like a child, and her gentle breathing came to his ears.A few strands of hair scratched the side of his face in the breeze, tickling, and there was a faint fragrance in his nose. Sasuke knew that it was the smell of aster, a mixture of lavender and orchid. But he saw that aster was still sleeping, not wanting at all. When she woke up, her lips were slightly closed, her face was calm, and her brows revealed an indescribable peace.

This is the first time she has slept so soundly. Sasuke knows how Shion has spent these years. Ever since she inherited the duties of a miko in the Kingdom of Demons, she has never slept peacefully. Because of the prophecy, she will be beaten every time. Awakened by the scene in the dream.

Because of the power of prophecy, everyone around Ziyuan left her one by one. With the separation of yin and yang, Ziyuan was exhausted physically and mentally. She was scared, terrified, and always worried. Because of her power, she once again involved innocent people. , let them die because of themselves and die because of prophecy.

Looking at Shion's cute sleeping face, Sasuke's mouth curled up, "Go to sleep, I hope you can be freed from the nightmare soon. After the monster, your fate will eventually come to an end."

Without disturbing Shion, Sasuke closed his eyes and continued to practice. At the same time, he allocated a part of his mental power to cover the surrounding space within a hundred meters, using this method to guard.

Ziyuan had never felt so at ease, her consciousness became deeper and deeper, and she kept falling in the dark space. Finally, a scene appeared in front of her eyes.

It was vaguely visible that she was a beautiful woman, wearing a witch uniform similar to Zion's. She also had silver hair and was seventy-nine similar to Zion.

Seeing this woman, a strong emotional impulse emerged in Ziyuan's heart. Under this impulse, a force was inspired from the body. In the continuous fluctuations, the surrounding dark space gradually shattered, and the light came, and the woman The image becomes clearer.

It was still the same as in the memory. There was a hint of smile on Maitreya's face, and he waved to Ziyuan, "Come on, Ziyuan, come to mother."

The gentle voice made Ziyuan's heart tremble, and her feet stepped through the space, causing the space to fluctuate again.

"Mother Mother"
