K423 from Dark Souls

Mei noticed that the monster's arm was being torn apart by the light of the knife, but it recovered quickly.It uses its high-speed recovery power to wear down the power of the sword light.

"Give me... cut it open!"

Mei squeezed the core of the body, and suddenly superimposed the Honkai energy on the knife light, which raised the destructive power of the knife light to a higher level, and cut the monster's body in half.

"Whoosh..."

Mei slashed this knife, and the Houkai energy in her body was completely bottomed out. Panting heavily, she slowly fell from the air to the ground.

"This monster should be dead... By the way, Ms. Sakura!"

Mei ran towards Ms. Sakura's house, and saw Ms. Sakura who was crushed under a pile of rubble with a pale face.

"Miss Sakura, hold on, I beg you to come out right away..."

Mei tried her best to remove the sundries that were pressing on Ms. Sakura and threw them aside, but she suddenly smelled a rusty smell, and a pool of scarlet liquid slowly flowed out from under the ruins.

"Miss Mei...I...I may not be able to take care of...Rin anymore..."

Ms. Sakura endured the severe pain in her abdomen, and begged the anxious Mei.

"...Miss Mei...you can take care of me...she..."

"I will...Miss Sakura...I can definitely save you...Hold on!"

Mei wanted to pierce her heart with a dagger again to extract energy, but the weakness in the heart made Mei know clearly that she could no longer squeeze out any more strength.

"Don't...I don't want my sister to leave me!"

A voice that was beyond Ms. Sakura's expectation suddenly made Ms. Sakura's pupils constrict violently.

"...Xiao Lin...how do you...cough cough cough..."

Miss Ying coughed violently, blood overflowed from the corner of her mouth, and a trace of abnormal flush appeared on Miss Ying's pale face.

"...Little Rin...Rin, from now on...you must listen to Mei-san...Mei-san...please...thank you... "

When Mei wanted to comfort Miss Sakura, Mei suddenly saw a look of extreme panic on Miss Sakura's face.

"cold!"

Mei saw the blood splattered from Xiao Rin's body beside her, and a scorched branch claw pierced Rin's body from behind.

Then the scorched black claws flicked violently, throwing Rin's small body in front of Ms. Sakura. Ms. Sakura's eyes widened, but the eyes slowly became hollow, leaving blood-red tears, lost. life.

"Ahhhhh!!"

Mei cried out in pain, she still hadn't changed anything, she still couldn't do anything.

The world collapsed again, and Mei fell into the boundless chaos, when her consciousness began to become blurred.Miss Sakura's voice sounded in Mei's confused mind.

"Will you help me protect Xiao Lin?"

"...I will, whatever it takes..."

Chapter 49 Festival Begins

"Have you heard? Someone disappeared from the village last night."

"Missing?!"

"Well, I heard that his wife can't find him everywhere, and everyone around has never seen him."

"Could it be that he sneaked up the mountain..."

"Impossible, there are special people in the village to guard the way up the mountain, and they won't let people go up."

"I heard that the elders in the village are going to call everyone to find him. What a troublesome guy."

Kallen hid in the corner and was shocked when she heard the two villagers talking.

'Could it be...Aurora kept telling me not to go out last night, because she knew in advance that someone would go missing? ! '

'What the hell is she trying to do...'

"Karen? Why are you here?"

Yae Sakura noticed Karen who was hiding in the corner, and reached out to pat her shoulder with some doubts, and Karen jumped up from the ground in shock.

"Sakura! Don't pat me on the shoulder suddenly, it scares me a bit!"

Karen turned her head to look at Yae Sakura, puffed her mouth, looked at Yae Sakura with some shame, and then stomped her feet with a little emotion.

"Sorry, I saw you squatting here alone, and I was a little curious."

Yae Sakura smiled helplessly at Kallen, then took out an red bean roast from the paper bag she was holding in her hand, and handed it to Kallen.

"Let's have some snacks first. Karen hasn't eaten anything since morning. She should be hungry."

"Don't always treat me like a child! Sakura!"

Although Karen turned her head a little annoyed, she protested to Yae Sakura with a stiff mouth.But he consciously took the sweets from Yae Sakura, and stuffed the red bean roast into his mouth.

"That's right, Sakura."

Kallen suddenly remembered something, so she chewed the sweet in her mouth, swallowed it, and asked Yae Sakura.

"Sakura, do you know that someone disappeared in the village last night?"

"Someone is missing? Sorry, I don't know about this yet..."

When Yae Sakura heard Kallen mentioning the disappearance, her smiling expression didn't change a bit.Tilting his head, he seemed to think carefully, and then answered Karen.

"Is that so...Sakura doesn't know..."

"I just heard people in those villages say that because a person is missing, the village will call the villagers to find that person."

Kallen told Yae Sakura about this matter, but Yae Sakura just replied her lightly.

『I am only responsible for guarding the village. I will not be involved in the missing villagers. 』

"Eh?! Is it like this? Is it a little dangerous for people in the village to look for it? I don't know if there are any Houkai beasts on the mountain..."

Karen was a little worried about the people in the village. This kind gesture made the shadow in Yae Sakura's eyes more intense.

'...Karen is so kind...actually wants to hurt Kallen...die!Damn it all! '

"Sakura? What's wrong with you? Your complexion has become ugly. Are you feeling unwell?"

Kallen asked Yae Sakura, she just saw Yae Sakura's expression became very gloomy.

"It's okay... Maybe it's because I caught a cold last night, I just had a headache..."

Yae Sakura casually found an excuse, fooled Karen, and stretched out her hand to cover her head.

"Let's not talk about this for now... Do you want to go to the town with me to see Karen? I didn't stay with you last time, and I must make it up this time."

"Okay, let's go then, Sakura!"

-------

"It hurts! What happened?!"

Teresa felt a sudden sharp pain in her calf, and the severe pain in her calf awakened Teresa from a coma.

And Teresa suddenly found that she was being tied to a simple wooden frame, and she couldn't exert any force on her calf.It made her struggle violently.

"Ah...the little ghost from another country has woken up..."

A middle-aged man wearing a fox mask noticed Theresa's waking up, stretched out a hand and pinched Theresa's face, forcing Theresa to look at him.

"Little ghost, don't think about struggling, the Miko has already decided to dedicate you to the God."

"No...impossible!"

"Believe it or not, just like the usual practice, in order to prevent you from resisting..."

The man wearing the fox mask let go of the hand that pinched Teresa's cheek, and stood up straight while supporting the wooden frame.Then, with the blade held in the other hand, it cut on Theresa's wrist.

"First cut off the rest of your tendons..."

-------

Aurora suddenly discovered that according to normal circumstances, Kallen should have been imprisoned as a sacrifice this evening.

"But...it's different now, what's changed...Auntie!"

Aurora suddenly realized that she seemed to have forgotten the existence of Theresa for a while, and completely forgot to consider Theresa's situation.

"Auntie may be in danger!"

"Miss Kallen..."

"Karen, let's go to the god festival together..."

Yae Sakura suddenly opened her mouth and extended an invitation to Kallen, inviting Kallen to attend the god festival with her.

"God Festival?! Isn't it still in preparation?"

Kallen was a little surprised, and asked Yae Sakura, and at this time, she also heard Aurora's voice.

"Miss Karen, Teresa is in danger, follow Miss Sakura to the god festival... Teresa is at the festival!"

"Dangerous?! What happened?!"

Kallen asked Aurora, but Aurora kept silent and just told her.

"Go to the festival site first, and then I will tell you everything, everything you are curious about, Miss Karen..."

"I see..."

Kallen nodded to Yae Sakura, and accepted Yae Sakura's invitation.

"Then Karen, come with me to the square in the middle of the village. The statue of the fox god has been placed... Only the last step is left, my step..."

------

A thick piece of cloth was stuffed into Teresa's mouth by the masked guy, and then a large piece of red cloth was covered on the wooden frame, covering Teresa also underneath.

"These guys...where are they taking me?!"

Teresa felt as if she had been lifted up to a very noisy place.
