[Comprehensive] Goodbye, Asuna

[Inuyasha + Soul Girl Marriage God]

【34】

In the lush forest, Asuna's feet stepped on the soft and earthy humus, the air was gloomy and fresh, not polluted at all.

After using the teleportation stone, Asuna was teleported to this fairly well-protected forest, with no villages, no shops, and no human habitation.

She looked at the canopy and chose to head south.Until I heard someone yelling for help.Occasionally there was the cry of wild animals.

Hearing this familiar voice, Asuna breathed a sigh of relief.It's fine if you don't get thrown into weird places.

She pulled out the lush grass and rushed towards the direction of the sound.

Then she saw a beautiful lake set like a jewel in the middle of the forest.On the grass by the lake, the firewood was scattered all over the ground, and the child who fell to the ground looked at a huge snake-like monster in fear.

It spit out a red letter, touched the child's cheek, and whispered indistinctly while drooling: "Fresh flesh and blood..."

"No, don't eat me!!!" The child screamed, his body was shaking like chaff, and he couldn't even move, "Help, everyone is good, dad, mom, help me ah ah ah !!! Taro doesn't want to die!!!"

"Let go of that child!" With a flash of silver light, Asuna used her skills to move and instantly arrived in front of the child.

Then, she poked a few holes in the body of the snake demon with several swords.The snake demon screamed, rolled and rolled like a caterpillar that had been stabbed, leaving a piece of food on the lake bank.

Asuna picked up the child and quickly left the scene.

Asuna waited until the rattling noise of the snake could no longer be heard, and then Asuna put the child down.

It looked like a boy of seven or eight years old, his face was messed up with tears, as if he hadn't recovered from the shock, he looked up at Asuna's face blankly.

"It's okay," Asuna comforted in a soft voice, "That guy won't come again."

"..." The little boy slowly recovered from his stupor, his eyes slowly lit up, "It's amazing. It's really amazing. With a silver sword, it killed such a big thing in one fell swoop..."

Asuna smiled, "What's your name?"

"Taro!"

"Taro, right? You lead the way, and I'll take you home."

If she happens to meet someone, then she can find a place where humans live together, and she can find some information from there.

"Ah!" Taro slapped his thigh, annoyed, "I have spilled all the firewood, so there will be no firewood at night! I still have to collect firewood!"

"Uh...then let's fight." Asuna felt that the child recovered really quickly.

As soon as he lowered his head, he saw Taro looking at him expectantly.

"You are so good, you must be even better at collecting firewood!"

"..." Not only the nerves are strong, but the logic is also very strong.However, in such a big danger, he can still think about finishing what he has to do instead of running home crying and burying his head in his mother's arms. He is also a strong child.

Asuna reluctantly accompanied the child to gather firewood, and Taro took her back to the village after he had collected enough firewood.

Small villages, full of small thatched cottages.And the people there, most of them were tanned, pale and skinny, and from the clothes they were wearing, Asuna recognized that they were probably in the Warring States Period.

Asuna stood up and attracted people's attention.

They had never seen such a style of dress, or even such bright fabrics.Asuna's fair skin that hasn't been damaged by ultraviolet rays gave her an air of resemblance.

Asuna met Taro's parents, and later, went to the village head of this small village.However, because the news was very limited, she didn't get any more information except that the monsters were rampant here.

Asuna expressed her idea of ​​settling here, the village chief was very happy to gather the villagers together, and everyone helped Asuna build a house together.

Asuna used the various vegetables and grains presented by everyone to make a very sumptuous feast, and everyone ate happily.Asuna also breathed a sigh of relief.

After everyone left, Asuna sat on the bed made of soft thatch, thinking—it might be a long time to wait.

This is hundreds of years past of the era she grew up in, maybe even 600 or 700 years...

It's been too long.Asuna thought helplessly in her heart, would she have forgotten about Kirito by the time she got there?If you forget, then waiting for so long will be useless.

"Asuna-sama..."

Asuna looked up and saw Taro standing at the door, holding a basket in his hand, looking into the room.

Asuna waved, and little Taro ran in happily.

Push the grass on the basket to reveal a few dirty eggs.

"Mom asked me to bring this." Taro said, raising his head.

Taro's parents are very grateful to Asuna, and they gave Asuna a rare and cheerful thing in this era.Eggs are not only delicious, they also hatch chicks.After finally saving a few, I sent them over.

"Thank you mom for me." Asuna said with a smile.Then, Asuna took out the pot, fried one extravagantly, and made snacks for Taro.

Taro felt that Asuna was a waste, but she was too greedy, and the food was delicious.

"What do you do on weekdays?" Asuna asked.

Taro smacked his lips to savor the delicacy of fried eggs: "Hunting, farming, raising silkworms... that's all. If the harvest is not good, go to the mountains to pick wild products."

Asuna looked at the fields here, and could tell that the land was not fertile enough, and the seedlings were not good enough.

This is an era of insufficient food and clothing.

What's more, there are still people-eating demons rampant.

The next day, Asuna went to the village chief's house and told her everything she had learned about agriculture and mulberry in the Twelve Kingdoms.Because of being a king, I worked as a firefighter for a long time to save them from famine. Of course, I know the basics of people's livelihood very well.

The two discussed planning the land of the village first, and circled the places with excellent sunshine and fertile water and soil as cultivated land, so as to ensure the maximum harvest under the current conditions.

As soon as she got started, Asuna started the small village renovation plan with ease.She also put on local clothes, and even went to work in the fields, becoming a beautiful village girl.

Working at sunrise and resting at sunset, Asuna feels that her life is full and simple.

"It looks like that now!" Asuna sighed as she looked at the paddy fields that had begun to take shape. "Village Chief, the next step is to expand the population and upgrade our place into a city!"

The village chief stroked his beard happily and said, "I never thought that such a day would come. At first, we just wanted to escape from the hands of demons. We thought it would be good if we survived. We never thought we could rebuild our homeland!"

Asuna counted the time: "Step by step, it will take less than a hundred years. Probably a small country can be built."

The village chief laughed: "Oh, I don't dare to think about that. We only need to eat enough and wear warm clothes."

For the first time, Asuna felt that the knowledge she learned when she was king was not in vain, the corners of her mouth curled up: "I think so too."

"Master Asuna has been here for seven years." Looking at Asuna's unmarked face, the village chief said, "Seven years, to do this, you must be a big shot. "

"Me?" Asuna smiled, "I'm just a lonely ghost, I am very satisfied to stay here."

"However, my lord..." the village head said hesitantly, "That little Taro was going to get married in a few days back then, you...won't you get married? There are also many outstanding young people in the village!"

Asuna said in embarrassment: "Isn't it busy getting married?" She quickly changed the subject.

It is impossible to marry these people, not only because she has Kirito, but also because of her own particularity.

The ageless body and appearance, and the body in this game probably cannot be made into a human being...

With Asuna as a think tank, this small village has developed quite rapidly.And Asuna's prestige gradually increased.Gradually, everyone in the village treated Asuna with the most admiration.

Year after year, the old village chief passed away, and the new village chief was the son of the old village chief.This year, the village was also upgraded to a city.Asuna's residence is no longer a simple and plain thatched cottage.

After another ten years.

Asuna attended Taro's funeral, and that young and bold boy turned into such a decayed body.And his grandson was trembling in front of him, as if he was treating some important person.

Asuna returned to the house. Now, the house she lives in is built with bricks and stones, tall and solid.And rich food is delivered to his house every day.Muslin was also often sent.The people in the village have the utmost respect for Asuna, but no one would say to Asuna with a smile——

"Girl, I baked a new pancake, come and eat it!"

And no one will help her worry about it—"Aren't you married yet?"

For almost everyone who knew her as a bright homeless orphan had died, and now in the village she was treated as a mysterious and wise great man.

Respect, but stay away.

—she was lonely.This is not what she wants.

Asuna thought, she is not human anymore, she doesn't need to worry about what humans worry about, she doesn't pursue what humans pursue...

She will not starve to death if she does not eat, and she is not old, but she cannot reproduce.

Even if she has the same humanoid posture and similar emotions, her destination is still different from that of humans.Different road non-phase plan.

Because we are different, we are lonely.Loneliness is poisonous and corrupts the soul.

She doesn't want to be alone.

Asuna greeted the current castellan and left the place where she had lived for 55 years.

She stepped into the lush forest again, with an undecided direction, but she had an idea—to find the legendary monster.

The author has something to say: Nana is no longer a human being, she has no choice but to find some similar species.

In Italy and K, the time is short and can't be felt.In the Twelve Kingdoms, there is always someone to accompany them.

This is the first time I feel the difference in myself.

At this time, it should be Nana's loneliest time.

I think this chapter is very important.It is very important to Nana.
