[Comprehensive] There are thirteen days left until the collapse of the Honmaru

California Qingguang suddenly looked up, and the moonlight reflected in his eyes, but it seemed to shine into the abyss, no longer reflecting the brilliance of the past.The knife that had been dropped aside was placed on An Yuan's neck at some point, and the cold air on the blade was creepy.

He moved intimately against An Yuan's ear, and only said one sentence, his tone was as gentle as a lover's whisper.

"Everyone...is very sad about this matter, so...can you give me an answer."

Yasuhara Tokiha didn't speak immediately, she was nervously calculating countermeasures.

--what happened!How could they... know that they are just a matter of data? !

—Could it be!

She suddenly remembered that this was a server that should have completely shut down file deletion. Thousands of data should have fallen asleep at that moment. Whether it was player, sword, or world files, they would all be deleted.

But now something went wrong!Great question!

She is a living human player, somehow got into this game that was supposed to be closed, and met blackened monsters and swords!

In this situation, it is not surprising that the Honmaru Swordsmen, who did not fall asleep immediately, learned the secret from a higher dimension.

Knowing the battle of my life and experiencing so many painful memories... only to find out that some things are all set by human beings and the same data, what kind of changes will these data--what will happen?

Due to Yasuhara Tokiha's crazy thinking in a short period of time, in fact, less than two seconds passed by the outside world.Suddenly, California's red scarf covering his face slipped off without warning. Caught off guard by California, Yasuhara Tokiha saw clearly the face covered in black spells.

...fallen in darkness.

Her California light has long since fallen.

——After knowing the truth, most of the swords in Honmaru should be like this, right?

"Don't... don't look!"

Contrary to her expectations, California Qingguang, who was waiting for her answer with a murderous look, suddenly let out a mournful cry, and even drew the knife directly, turned around and covered his face.He knelt on the ground, frantically trying to wrap the scarf back again, so as not to let the interrogator see his terrifying face, but it got worse and worse, the hand that tied the scarf was clearly trembling.

"Qing Guang..."

Yasuhara Shiyu spoke worriedly, and she even got up, wanting to come over, "You..."

"Don't come over!" California shouted with her back turned, "Please don't come over! Don't even look at me!"

An Yuan did stand where he was, but with a look of disappointment on his face, "But..."

"I am Qingguang, California, a child from the lower reaches of the river..." The black-haired Fu Sangshen covered his face and let out a distressed cry, "I will always dress myself up cutely, so... please don't Look at my face."

I just want to let you remember my cutest moments.

"Why don't you let me see?"

"me……"

A pair of white and warm hands covered his cheeks, Kakashi Kiyomitsu raised his head in surprise, but what he saw was Yasuhara Tokiha's eyes full of tears.

Clean is like a clear night sky, shining brightly.

"Qingguang, even if you fall into darkness, aren't you still my sword?"

"To be honest, I don't like judging a person because of their appearance. Although sometimes it will be affected eventually, I still try my best to treat people equally—are you going to defect and leave my side if you become ugly?"

"No! It's not like that!" California Qingguang was taken aback, and retorted subconsciously, "I didn't intend to defect, and even the treason just now was just...to scare you, but..."

Yasuhara Tokiha suddenly smiled wryly, "Don't you understand?"

"—In my opinion, my California Qingguang, no matter what it becomes, will always be the strong and gentle person in my heart... This is your innate... beauty."

Kai Qingguang relaxed, he stopped trying to deceive himself by covering his face with a scarf, and he didn't even touch the handle of the knife that was in his hand.

At this moment, he was as obedient as when he first met, as one of the five initial knives, he was uneasy knowing that the chosen knives were himself.

Ecstasy and happiness filled the cold heart again.

"If only you... had come earlier..."

——I, they, will not go to that step in pain.

He whispered, closed his eyes, and there seemed to be crystal water shining in the corner of his eyes—but it disappeared immediately.

After a while, the two sat on the ground and discussed.

"Although I don't understand what players and data you are talking about, since I woke up, I have an idea in my heart..." Yasuhara Tokiha scratched his head, his expression was full of confusion, "I feel that in the past month , like someone manipulated my body."

The news was astonishing, so California Qingguang opened his eyes involuntarily. Although the black lines on his face made this cute expression in the past hideous, Yasuhara replied without changing his face, "Yes...it's like There is a huge consciousness descending into my body to interact with you in this pill."

"I think that consciousness should be the 'player' you mentioned." She lowered her head and looked at the scorched grass roots, sadly, "I was manipulated by that consciousness, and I couldn't help looking at everything in this pill. Things happened. Thinking about it now that I have regained my freedom, I should also be a data, but... a fake and shoddy god judge like me, in the eyes of you, Qingguang, is probably a fake master."

"Please don't say that!" Seeing her melancholy, Kai Qingguang hastily comforted her, "Anyway, you heard Honmaru's call and chose to come back here. I don't know what other men with swords will think, but I'm the only one Humanly speaking... thank you and would like to come back.”

"Didn't you put the knife on my neck just now?" Yasuhara Tokiha asked suspiciously, "Why are you saying words of gratitude again?"

California Qingguang looked ashamed and annoyed, he stammered a bit, "I was afraid that you wouldn't want to say it, so..."

I want to scare you.

The second half of the sentence was made up by the judge himself.

——You thought you were Tsurumaru Kuninaga?A mischievous crane?

Although she really wanted to say this, she still managed to muster up her courage, "No matter what, I hope to visit Honmaru—after all, I was born from the data of the player's consciousness. Now the other party has left this world , only me, the guy who was originally a body... In this case, I want to complete the things that the players didn't finish, and I want to accompany you... to figure out this matter."

California Qingguang's blood-colored pupils stared deeply at her for a few seconds, and the black lines on his face seemed to fade a little.

"...as you wish."

Yasuhara Tokiha breathed a sigh of relief immediately, and relaxed without hesitation in front of the other party.

"I thought you would refuse, Qingguang."

"Even if I don't agree, you will find a chance to go up and have a look, won't you?"

"...Yeah, I have to see it with my own eyes."

An Yuan admitted in embarrassment, but also saw California Qingguang smiled slightly - this was the first smile she saw California showed after she came here.

But, now it should be regarded as the first step in acting goal?

Then there is a group of swords waiting for her to fool.

There is no way, as a human player, if you really admit that you are a player, not the same data as the swords, you may be treated maliciously.

——In this broken world, as long as you admit that you are a human being, that is the greatest crime.

Yasuhara Tokiha knows very well that sometimes, death is definitely a gentle end.

There are some things scarier than death.

Don't look at Jia Qingguang smiling at her very gently at this time, but if he knows the truth about how he has fooled him... there is no way, a lie will always need a lot of lies to make up for it.

She had no choice but to survive.

————————————————————————————————————————

Before climbing back to the Honmaru at the top of the hill, Yasuhara Tokiha asked the black-haired and red-eyed Fu Sangshen about the current situation of the Honmaru.

"Now in Honmaru," An Yuan was a little hesitant when it came to this, but he had to ask again, "How many knives have been secretly fallen? Who else...is the knife broken?"

[Daosha], for Token Fusangshen, it is equivalent to the "death" of human beings.

Hearing the words, California Qingguang's footsteps became slightly sluggish, and at the same time, he turned his head and gave her a fixed look, with indescribable sadness in his eyes.

"You should ask—'How many swords survive?'" he whispered, pulling the scarf over the bridge of his nose.

Although the judge kept saying that he didn't care about his appearance and those marks, California Qingguang still wanted to try his best to restore his original cute image... It can be seen that he has really tried his best.

There was a sense of sadness in these words, Yasuhara Tokiha lowered his head, staring at the broken stone steps under his feet.

They were originally smooth and flat, neatly piled up to form the road up the mountain.Now, it was all split in half and turned into a disheveled face... making her almost unrecognizable.

"So, how many swords survived in my Honmaru?"

"Let me think about it... Hotaru, Tokiri Mitsutada, and Yaken Toshiro, plus me..."

Yasuhara Tokiha waited for a while, and found that California Qingguang didn't seem to continue talking, and couldn't help but exclaimed in shock: "That's it? Gone?!"

"It's gone." California smiled wryly. There are a total of 58 knives, but now there are only four left, which is really sad.

"What about the rest?"

"When the catastrophe struck, some were smashed on the spot, while others fell in the dark."

"..." An Yuan raised his eyebrows after being silent for a moment, "There must be one or two, there are no ones who were smashed or fell in the dark, right?"

"Yes." California Qingguang nodded, "For example, like Mr. Sanriyue, he was fine at the time, but then he went out...and lost his way."

No one has seen him since.

——This encounter is really full of slots,

The judge's expression was a little confused.

"anything else?"

"Mutsu Mori and Tong Tanuki packed up their things and said they were going to a distant place to find out the truth of the catastrophe. Before leaving, they were sorry and said they couldn't wait for your return in Honmaru."

"I... can understand them."

——It sounds like bad news.

"Also, like Taro Tachi, he was fine at first, but when he went out to search for resources, he was plotted by the enemy and accidentally fell... In the end, in order to accompany his elder brother, Jiro Tachi chose to take it away and lost it. Sensible him."

"Unfortunately, Jiro Tachi's drinking party... probably won't be held again."

"...Well." California Qingguang responded dully.

"By the way," Yasuhara Tokiha suddenly noticed a problem, "Qing Mitsu, why didn't you mention... the dagger?"

Yeah, what about the dagger kids who are big enough to form a band?

California Qingguang's footsteps seemed to be tripped by something.The sky was gloomy, and with the scarf covering him, An Yuan couldn't see his expression clearly.

"Haven't you already guessed it? Most of the short knives are broken, and the living ones have also fallen."

"One phase and one shock collapsed on the spot... Later, he took away all the dark knives, but Yaoyan was kept by him because he was not broken or dark."

Kuritaguchi Pai Taidao, who loves his younger brothers, watched his younger brothers die one by one, or fell into the dark abyss. It would be abnormal if he could remain indifferent.

"If after witnessing these situations, you can keep from falling in the dark, then it won't be a one-stage one."

... That guy is a very gentle and senior brother-in-law.

So in the end, the injury is deeper than others.

"Don't talk about them anymore," Yasuhara Tokiha took a deep breath, "So the catastrophe refers to...?"

"Five days ago, time was suddenly frozen, and everyone was unable to move, and the bright and clear day turned into night in an instant. At the same time, the mountains shook and the ground shook, the ground split open, and magma gushed out. There are those terrifying monsters... Even the time-traveling army that was originally confined to the historical battle (dungeon map) is no longer restrained. They seem to have suddenly lost their original goal of changing history, and instead began to attack the remaining swords , and run everywhere."

After saying this, California's eyes became a little heavy, "That's the moment when your breath disappeared into the pill."

Yasuhara Tokiha counted the days since he came to this world, and today is exactly the fifth day, but she felt very embarrassed, she couldn't say that the webpage was blacked out at that time, and the server was shut down.As a "player", she naturally "disappeared".

"...I'm so sorry." She sighed.

However, California Qingguang just looked at her helplessly, "I said this not because I wanted to hear the lord's apology. In fact, as the initial sword... I couldn't protect my companions when the catastrophe came. Just stare at them..."

Yasuhara Tokiha hurriedly interrupted and comforted: "Qingguang, don't blame yourself. Speaking of which, as an unqualified lord, I am also responsible."

"No! I failed your high expectations..."

If this dialogue continues like this, it seems that it will become a self-criticism conference.

Fortunately, the gate of Honmaru was not far away, so they had walked back to this hillside before they knew it.

An Yuan took a deep breath, his heart speeding up uncontrollably.

"Those three, are they all inside?"

"No, Candlestick and I came out today to find resources... Yingwan and Yaoyan are in charge of staying behind. By the way, Candlestick and I are going in the opposite direction. It will take three or four hours before we come back."

California Qingguang noticed her uneasy expression, and suddenly hesitated to speak.

But the attention of the judge is so sensitive, "What do you want to say to me? Qingguang."

"Those two are full of strong resentment in their hearts, and this kind of resentment is far stronger than mine. So their appearance has also undergone some... changes accordingly. In short, please be mentally prepared."

An Yuan pondered for a few seconds, then saluted him and thanked him, "Thank you for your reminder."

Faced with this salute, Qingguang sideways avoided in a panic, "This is what I should do, but don't worry - even if it is risky to be broken by a knife, I will bring you out intact! About this Do not worry, my lord!"

After receiving the assurance from Fu Sangshen, Yasuhara Tokiha forced a smile.

It's as if you're going to go to hell...

It's a pity that only when she actually saw the two swords and Fusangshen did she know that what Qing Guang said was true.
