Still under the tall cherry tree.

The tranquil fragrance of cherry blossoms is as elegant as a lady hidden behind a curtain, elegant and indifferent, not as strong as sweet-scented osmanthus, nor as compelling as peach blossoms.

This season is most suitable with cool, refreshing, soft and delicate pastries.

Perhaps in order to set off the beautiful scenery of cherry blossoms, Candlestick Kiri Mitsutada specially asked the Fusangshin in Honmaru to collect the dewy cherry blossom petals in the early morning, and made cherry blossom snacks for the gods in the early morning.

First carefully pick out the intact petals of the cherry blossoms, then remove the bottom receptacle, wash it, soak it in water for about 10 minutes, dry it, mix a little salt with the cherry blossoms, and then put it in the jar , sugar on the bottom, a layer of cherry blossoms, another layer of sugar, and another layer of cherry blossoms, so that the entire jar is filled.

Finally, pour a layer of honey, seal it and put it in the refrigerator to make salted cherry blossoms.

Making cherry blossom cake is the easiest step. When it comes out of the oven, the fragrance of late spring has already made many early risers swallow their saliva.

Because there are Gukuu Toshiro and Sayo Samomon beside her, Nana plays a "spirit examiner" who lost her way back to Honmaru in this week.However, there are only two Fusangshin around a god judge instead of six, or one of them as a close attendant will make the suspicious Fusangshin suspicious, so this time only Gukuu Toshiro appeared outside.

But why not the child-sized dagger Sayo Zuomon?Wouldn't this lower the vigilance of the fusang gods?

In order to be able to bring another vibrating sword openly, Nana declared that this vibrating small night left character is Honmaru's sword. I was too worried about her, so every time I went out for a long time, the dagger Fusangshen would specially give her the main body for self-defense. After all, the dagger is for self-defense. Knife!

This reason is reasonable and completely irrefutable.

"Delicious!" Nana couldn't help but picked up another piece of cherry blossom cake from the plate. The faint aroma pouring into the taste buds changed from light to strong, and the cool and refreshing mouth melted softly. A pair of dark eyes lighted up slightly. At this time, some silent girls have a little vitality that they should have at this age.

The girl sitting across from her looked at her with a gentle smile, and was relieved when she saw her slightly relaxed appearance. Under the slightly drunken morning light, the faint halo behind the interrogator seemed to be able to penetrate her body.

how to say?When she saw this girl, she felt a love she had known for a long time, but her indifference was like a hedgehog with its thorns erected, stabbing herself and rejecting others, which made her very worried and distressed.

There's always a feeling that... she shouldn't be like this.

So seeing the child happy, she felt a little relieved.

"Hahaha, sir, is there no candlestick Chisan in Honmaru?" After the devilish laughter, the pure and beautiful moon sitting behind the god judge opened his mouth, more beautiful than the falling cherry blossoms.

The dark eyes moved slowly, and before the silent girl could speak, Toshiro Toshiro, who had the same expression behind her, said, "My lord, she..." Similar to Toshiro Natsuo, but slightly different The deep eyes stayed on Nana's body in front of her for a while, as if he hesitated for a while.

Mikazuki Munechi, who was familiar with Gukuu Toshiro, immediately understood his embarrassment, thinking that he might have violated some taboo in Gukuu Honmaru, and just about to open his mouth to skip this topic, a calm and indifferent voice sounded from the opposite side.

"My lord, she wasn't like this originally, but...Something happened, so I'm afraid to communicate with adults now, so now everyone who is an adult in Honmaru doesn't live with us." Bone Kushi Fujishiro to Nana Surprised and flustered eyes, he held the hand that grabbed the corner of his clothes as if to comfort him.

Sanriyue Zongjin and the God Examiner were not easily fooled characters, they were even quite keen, and they immediately noticed the truth of this matter, perhaps a little concealed, but it was indeed true.

The expression of Hua Jiang, the judge of the gods, immediately changed. She, who was almost full of affection for Nana, felt a pang and a subtle sour feeling in her heart, and she didn't know this feeling because she was not connected with guilt. What is it, but she knows that she loves the child in front of her.

The child with pale lips and a slightly trembling body lowered his eyes under the gentle and comforting eyes of the examiner, and asked softly, "Hua Jiang, if... I mean if, I have something that must To do, but I don't know why I have to continue, the ultimate goal is meaningless, then I, then I..."

【...Because of 'wanting to leave', I persisted, but now that 'leaving' is meaningless, what else can I do? 】

In a trance, Nana fell into a cold embrace, and the faint fragrance lingered on the tip of her nose. It should be spring, but it made her feel the warmth of summer.

A pair of hands stroked her back gently and comfortingly, and her voice was so gentle that it was almost sad: "No, it's not a 'meaningless' thing, there are still people, there are still people waiting for you, guarding you, and hoping that you are safe and sound appeared before him."

"If you no longer have the will to support you to persevere, please think about the person who is waiting...no, redeeming you, he is the meaning of your persevering."

Who......?Who remembers themselves?

【Xiaonan...】

In the dreamlike haze, she remembered a name.

In the long seven-day reincarnation that was about to drive her crazy, from the beginning of missing and crying every day, to the person who gradually disappeared in the closed self, the boy with pink hair.

A boy who is gentle only to her.

But Nana was suddenly so wronged that she wanted to cry.

[You agreed to come to me, Xiao Nan is such a liar! 】

But she also knew in her heart that if something hadn't happened to hinder him, Saiki Kusuo would definitely have arrived on his heels.Because, because that person, that boy, would not ignore her, he doted on her the most.

If he knew, how could he be willing to let her keep resetting and resetting alone in the seven-day reincarnation, without being able to escape from this place that was more terrifying than hell.

Nana cried for a long time lying in the arms of the God judge. She had never cried so loudly since Act One, and now, thinking of that gentle boy with a paralyzed face, she would cry out of control.

That's the end of today's party. In the end, Nana was carried back by Gukuu Toshiro. When he left, he saw Mikazuki Zongjin standing not far away, and slightly opened his eyes slightly in astonishment.

For the first time, Mikazuki Zongjin restrained the smile on his face. Even the thousand-year-old Taidao who was smiling openly when he was injured, at this moment, he showed a coldness that was not like the sword Fusangshen. The moonlight is colder and sadder, and the pain is too pale to be expressed in words.

Nana, who woke up again, finally regained her senses. Although the character changed in such a long cycle of reincarnation could not be restored to its previous appearance so quickly, she finally had a glimmer of vitality and a glimmer of light. That lifeless look.

She looked out the window at the setting sun, and the warm orange glow somehow reminded her of the almost blood-red sky on the evening of the last day of the week.

[All along, I was wrong.Whether it's Hotaru, those Fusangshen, or Huajiang, none of their goals are to survive. 】

It was as if Xiao Nan was protecting her, and must have been saving her all the time.

[Hodakamaru wants to redeem his master, but also hates the fusangshen who hurt his master; the fusangshen want to keep the judge, but they did something wrong, and after awakening, they also want to redeem their master, But still deep in the pain of reincarnation, so what appears every night is their obsession with mechanically repeating reincarnation; Huajiang wants to save Yingwan and Fusangshen, even if they no longer exist in the world, they still tell me that "sin should be forgive'. 】

In the evening, the last warm orange afterglow has sunk into the horizon, a round of clear full moon hangs high above the sky, and the ground is covered with a crescent white halo, but it is not cold.Turning the clouds to see the moon, the sky is full of stars, and the beautiful night that has never been seen in seven days makes people unable to avert their eyes.

[So 'salvation' is everyone's wish. 】

Nana took a deep breath, stretched out her hand and pushed open the door. Behind her were the bone-chilling Toshiro and Sayo Zuomonji who were inseparable.

With black eyes, he stared at Fu Sangshen standing in the courtyard and looking up at the night scene. The young man who looked like the moon god descended was so beautiful that he did not seem like a real person, and he was indeed not a human being.

"Your Excellency Sanriyue."

Sanri Yuezong turned around, staring quietly at the girl in front of him with crescent eyes, and could tell the difference between her and usual at a glance, if it is said that she is like a string that is so tight that it will break at any time, Now I have firm eyes.

The shadows cast by the surrounding houses blended his shadow into the night.

"Hahaha, it's nice to be young..." he sighed,

It's always so easy to get depressed because of one thing, it's always so easy to rekindle your vitality because of a word, it's always so...warm, it makes cold swords flock to it because of this dazzling light like the sun, Desperate.

That's what humans are... a race that makes them both hate and love.

"Your Excellency Mikazuki, Hotaru told me that you are abominable, abominable, and pathetic." Nana looked at the new moon, and the expression of Hasebe, who was ignored, instantly became fierce and tense, and then The subject changed, "But my friend, Hua Jiang... 98 times, at the end of each time, she told me, 'sin should be forgiven'."

The light refracted from those black but star-studded eyes seemed to be tortured.

"What do you think?"

Sanri Yue Zongjin raised his head again and looked at the beautiful scenery that he had never seen in countless reincarnations: "Little girl, look, isn't this night scene beautiful? I haven't seen such a scene for a long time. If I have a glass of Tea would be even better." He smiled, but his face was relaxed, "Ji Jun is so gentle...that is more tolerant of everything than Mrs. Ningning."

Even knowing that they maliciously made Hotaru smash their knives on the battlefield because of jealousy, she just looked at them sadly, but didn't blame them.Even if he went to the battlefield alone to bring back Yingwan, and died because of it, he insisted on returning as a spirit body, and insisted on redeeming them who had fallen into ghosts.

Obviously she doesn't need to bear these.

They were just decayed and smelly ruins on her way, how could they be worthy of her sincerity?

See, so in the end it was her favorite sword that accompanied her all the way, and only the broken consciousness and shapeless body remained, cursing them with malice to taste the pain in the last seven days of reincarnation until they regretted it She herself sacrificed her life and even burned her soul, illuminating their ugly hearts in this lonely, long, dark, and terrible cycle.

Everyone who woke up one after another, some couldn't accept it and collapsed, turning into wild ghosts at night, insisting on fulfilling the malicious obsession in life, swallowing the evil fruit, repenting their mistakes, and guilting themselves, they tried to redeem their companions, firefly pills, and judges. The god, but was crushed in the siege of his companions at night.

The blood of their companions destroyed their sanity, and the long time rotted their pride, but in the end, these became excuses. They just couldn't face their mistakes, couldn't cover their eyes and continue walking, and could only let their obsessions die in the night Crazy, let the guilt settle in the day.

This land is constantly being stained with new blood, and the pain is superimposed. They can't count how many innocent people's blood has been stained in this ghost.

Finally, another girl with the same sun rays came. They were trapped in the repeated last seven days and were unable to provide more help. Watching her stumble forward, the light changed from dazzling to weak, and then from weak to weak. Shine brightly again.

"Yes, Hua Jiang is really gentle." The girl nodded slightly.

Sanri Yuezong tilted his head nearly, the golden tassels in his hair hung down beside his cheeks, there was a kind of unearthly beauty.

"You're very gentle too, little girl."

Then he laughed hahaha: "How should I put it, I am both guilty and proud, we who are greedy, forget shame, and are ungrateful, live in the same world as you who are so gentle."

"Sanriyue Temple!" Hasebe, who had been ignored all this time, finally couldn't help shouting, "But, but..." The brown-haired Fu Sangshen showed pain on his face, "I, Everyone wants to always, always live with the Lord.”

Sanri Yuezong raised his hand to touch the hair of the brunette Dadao: "Even the old man is tired."

When they left, Nana didn't care.

She just suddenly remembered one thing.

In one week, Akashi/National Bank asked her again:

"Don't do unnecessary things, isn't it good to live?"

Ahh, how did she answer back then?

At that time, covered in blood, she raised her face and smiled.

Of course it is - it's good to be alive, but I...would rather have real pain than fake life!

"Everyone is the same, Your Excellency Sankayue."

As she stepped out step by step, the Honmaru behind her gradually turned into nothingness, and there was a battlefield in front of her. On the not dark battlefield, there were ruins and broken blades everywhere, but a group of fireflies were floating, which could be clearly seen even though it was not night. Green fireflies.

"You're here!" The lively young voice was different from the hoarse and desolate voice I heard at first.

"Several times I thought you would never make it here!"

Nana was silent for a while, recalling some weeks when she was not in a good state, and then asked, "Are you still alive?"

The lively voice fell silent instantly, and after a while he said, "No, after exchanging my own strength for the seven-day illusion that circulates forever, I am completely dead. It was these fireflies that supported my last persistence. Read it." His voice was very gentle, "but the master is well protected by me!"

The fireflies gathered in a circle, and from the middle of the land, a gentle aura gradually gathered, gentle and powerful, just like the young girl who judged God.

Show off like a child, and innocent like a child.

Nana suddenly felt very sad.

[Sin should be forgiven.Who is guilty and who is evil? 】

Hotaru was smashed on the battlefield because of jealousy, and his favorite master died because of saving him. Therefore, he punished those fusangshen who harmed them and destroyed their peaceful and happy future forever hovering seven days before death Is it evil?

The Fusangshen were jealous of Hotaru who killed Hotaru, and caused the death of the judge in disregard of the kindness of the god judge. Is it a sin to repent and suffer continuously in the infinite loop of time?

Hua Jiang is gentle by nature, with a fraternal heart, and comes to redeem them, but she doesn't want to be afraid of the fusangshen who give their trust again to have delusions, which will eventually lead to death.

But she still has kindness in her heart, and she still believes that the world will be brighter.

She is such a person.

After handing over the ball of light that was carefully held up to Nana, the fireflies gradually dispersed, it should be said that they gradually disappeared.

As if it had been hit by some violent impact, this world began to shake, and even the boundary between reality and illusion blurred—it was about to shatter.

"Ah, the time is coming soon." Said the unknown Dao Fusangshen, "This ghost is about to shatter, and someone is waiting for you outside."

The words revealed a kind of exclamation of "It's so good", and the mottled fragments of bright green light spots gradually became less and less as the world turned into black and white.

Nana silently held the ball of light, stood motionless in the shaking world, and asked softly, "What about you?" The two swords that had turned into short knives and Wakizashi hung on her waist.

"Me?" He was a little surprised, the last scattered fireflies that were still wandering dangled around Nana, as if wondering why she would ask such an innocent question, and said in a natural tone , "Of course it disappeared! This ghost was formed by my own obsession. If the ghost is broken, I will naturally disappear."

He waited for a while, but before Nana could answer, a little firefly flew in front of Nana, as if he was looking at her seriously, and after a while he shouted in surprise: "Hey hey hey? Are you pitying me? I've trapped you here for so long Hey, shouldn't you hate me?"

hate it?

Can't tell.

Pitiful?

Not really.

Just feel sad.

"Hey hey~" He seemed very happy, and indeed it was worthy of being happy, "I successfully protected the master! Goodbye, cute little girl! The master will be handed over to you!"

The last trace left by this Zhenyingwan in this world has also disappeared, completely.

As the last bit of fluorescence annihilated into nothingness, the whole world was shattered.

"Nai Nai—" A strange yet familiar voice came, and then he pulled her over vigorously, bumping into a chest that was not too generous.

It's been a long time but she is familiar with the breath in her bones that wraps her, giving her trembling and almost broken heart a place to rest.

Her head was buzzing, and the trance of returning to reality had no sense of reality because she was not down-to-earth, but this person, the temperature of this person... so real.

[So... is it true, I... really came back. 】

"Got you."

"Hmm." She buried herself in the boy's arms with all her strength, letting the tears flow quietly, suppressing so much that no crying sound leaked out.

Dip into the clothes and touch the painfully hot wetness on the skin, making his heart burn.

Seeing the silent and lonely appearance of the girl who cared so much, Saiki Kusuo felt so distressed that he wanted to destroy the world that made her sad.

But he can't.

"I'll take you home."
