As we all know, winding zero is a human being

"You are, Gui Wu Tsuji Wu Mi?"

Hyakkimaru's distasteful question mixed with doubt was ignored.

Onimai Tsuji, who was busy splicing and repairing his severed body again, gritted his teeth and was unable to respond, while Zero was constantly struggling psychologically and had no time to reply him.

He couldn't help but take a step forward.

However, seeing Zero's movements, Oni Wu Tsuji seemed to remember something more terrifying, and stepped back while clutching his unhealed wound.

"...?" He felt that the current scene was really a bit strange.

Counting it, he has been hiding for more than two years. The person who should retreat now should be him, right?

The scarlet thing kept oozing and then dripping, and the sound of rapid breathing gradually calmed down in this silence.

Oni Wu Tsuji's combat effectiveness is zero. The ancestor of Oni, who has existed in the world for 600 years, has now suffered such a serious trauma, and after seeing him, he didn't have time to think of anything else, but retreated subconsciously ...

After going around and eliminating until the end, he felt that there was only one reason left.

"You, have you met Teacher Yuanyi?"

"That person is called Yuanyi?" After a long silence, Oni Wu Tsuji said the first sentence through gritted teeth.

His naked/naked body maintained a completely ghostly form, and there were deep cuts on the neck and half of the remaining arms. The flesh and blood kept wriggling but could not heal, and it was printed on the together with the dark knife wound. On that too pale body.

Just seeing such an injury, Zero felt as if he could empathize with the pain.

It's miserable...and emotional.

"So that's how it is." Hyakkimaru felt that he understood the cause and effect, "It seems that your luck today was not very good, and you finally ran into Ji Guoyuan."

Still holding the Sun Wheel Saber and watching his movements, Hyakkimaru's words seemed unintentional.

And Wu Mi's immediate expression seemed to be offended to the extreme, and the expression he showed that was about to choose someone to devour still couldn't get rid of a certain shadow, and it was a mixed feeling to see zero.

The word luck, they seem to have talked about it on a certain moonlit night.

At that time, he was still standing at the top of the food chain, looking down at the bubbling crowd below the city tower. When Guiwu Tsuji Wucan heard him euphemistically mention what he did, he just looked over with an impatient expression as a matter of course.

He said, since what happened cannot be reversed, why can't the encounter with him be regarded as the most common natural disaster in this land?

That kind of demeanor can be said to be extremely arrogant, so the conversation ended without a problem.

And now, Gui Wu Tsuji Wu Mi finally encountered a natural disaster that belonged to him.

Seeing this scene, Zero felt that the scale in his heart, which was crushed by one end, seemed to be tilted a little bit again.

He kept talking to himself, as if trying to brainwash himself——

Because he has never experienced it before, Ghost Mai Tsuji has no way of understanding the mentality of those people whose bodies are torn apart and swallowed up after encountering ghosts, and also can't understand why there is an organization like the Ghost Killing Team chasing him endlessly. with.

So what now?After enduring such a painful experience, can he restrain himself?

Although I know that this seems to gradually evolve into a story of a farmer and a snake, Zero thinks that he is not a farmer who wants to kill, and Guiwu Tsuji is miserable...

But it was indeed a venomous snake that was beautiful enough and dangerous enough for him to take the risk of blocking it.

In the night, the faint lights seemed to be on and off, and the figure reflected by the blade seemed to be blurred.

The young, the sick, the thin.

Cruel, tyrannical.

... Emotional.

Now I want to add one more, dying.

As if stimulated by this vocabulary, Zero felt that he couldn't stand by and watch.

He shook his head vigorously, as if trying to suppress this chaotic thinking.

However, everyone knows that the more you want to do this, the more impossible it will be.

In the end, all his thoughts were integrated into one sentence:

Wu Mi's eyes that were ignited with anger and fear, could they tolerate the so-called regret emotion?

"If you don't want to make a move, then stand a little farther away." Hyakkimaru just tilted his head and dropped this sentence, like a warning or a reminder, so fast that there was no time for zero reaction.

It's just that he still miscalculated.

The clanging sound shook out crisply as the hard blades collided.

Zero turned his eyes away and did not look at Hyakkimaru, who was gradually becoming puzzled. He only felt that the conclusion he had drawn earlier seemed to be a million points too early.

Jumping backwards may be the same as women's clothing. If there is a first time, there will be a second time?

Erwuzi too?

"Are you really going to—"

The brilliant sword skills are entangled with the sword skills used to kill ghosts and gods.

He didn't hear what Hyakkimaru said, and regardless of the constant soreness coming from his arm, Zero hastily turned his head and glanced at Kimai Tsuji who was blocked behind him——

In those eyes dyed with red plums, for a moment, the absent mindedness that should not have appeared was clearly engraved in Gui Wu Tsuji's eyes.

It was as if, one night, what was struggling to linger in those eyes was actually the same.

Zero asked himself a little waveringly: Is this enough?

This is enough.

Stepping on the stone road through the bamboo forest, the steady footsteps belonging to someone are also approaching from far to near in the confrontation between Zero and Hyakkimaru.

Even before he realized what this meant, he saw Wu Mi without even turning his head, and staggered a few steps in his direction...?

This, is it so cowardly? !

With hindsight, I also understand that the person who will come over now must be Ji Guoyuan, there is no second person...

Although he also thinks he can't beat Teacher Yuanyi, but if he can't beat him, he can't beat him. If he doesn't even have the courage to face the truth, this will turn into PTSD engraved in his DNA!

"...Please hold on to me!"

The person standing in front of the blade became him, so Hyakkimaru couldn't be cruel after all.

Deliberately giving up his right shoulder to block the blow that wanted to limit his pace, Zero and Hyakkimaru who held back his strength, and Enichi-sensei who could already see the hem of his clothes at the end of the road silently said sorry.

Only children make choices, but adults will always try to get rid of the person who gave the multiple choice questions.

He has never been a person who follows the rules. How can he regard comments like being too optimistic and naive as his own strengths?

He didn't have time to give his bleeding wound time to protest, but taking advantage of the direction in which the knife was drawn, he stomped his feet vigorously. Zero didn't know where he had the guts to grab the ghost dancer who was about to run away when he found an opportunity. Tsuji Wuchan hugged him horizontally in his arms with irresistible strength.

As if knowing what he was thinking, Wu Mi, who had resisted his approach before, stared at his movements as before. After confirming something, there was only one left, which was stained with blood and became more visible. Cold arms slowly wrapped around his neck.

There was a snort that was so soft that it was almost inaudible, and a faint and faint breath sprinkled on the front of his clothes.

Wu Mi, who had almost lost more than half of her body, was lighter than Zero imagined, and she felt fragile when she was hugged.

Taking into account Hyakkimaru who was chasing after him and Ji Kuni Enichi who was also running fast, he ran towards the horse he was tied there with all his strength.

Can't be overtaken, if he is overtaken, don't say that he has to play GG, isn't his two-five-five-year-old operation just for nothing!

Turning over onto the horse with unsteady movements, he suddenly hesitated before shaking the rein.

Wu Mi, who was leaning on his arms, raised his eyes, and he seemed to have made a decision.

The startled horses at the side didn't know what was about to happen, they lingered in place, their wet eyes looked over docilely and obediently, but they only saw something cold.

He didn't cut at the point, but he still did it to the horses that belonged to Hyakkimaru and Jikuni Enichi.

"……zero!"

Eh? !Teacher Yuanyi runs so fast, is that type of move the one in Rihu?

On the other hand, Onimai Tsuji Wuyou, who heard the sound, trembled slightly, and froze there without moving at all.

The arc was cut perfectly, as if there was more than the flesh and blood under his hand. The small animal's mournful sound was mixed with the sound of other things breaking, and the rainbow light left by the blade scattered in the air. When he turned his head and raised the rein firmly, It vaguely covered the two of them.

Under such circumstances, Ji Guoyuan and Bai Guimaru failed to catch up.

The sound of the wind whizzed past his cheeks endlessly.

They galloped in the boundless wilderness, and seemed to be standing still under the endless night.

"How about we go a little further?"

Adjusting the position as if on purpose, the back of the head was pressed against his heart, and Onimai Tsuji Mumi, who was wrapped in his haori, heard his question clearly with the sound of the beating heart, but did not respond.

And he couldn't see Wu Mi's expression now, so he had no choice but to make the escape route look less bumpy this time.

Turning around a steep slope, he slowed down a little.

The route in front of him was not very clear, and he just ran away in the opposite direction. After running for so long, the wind that was too free had already messed up all directions.

How should I put it, he didn't know if what he did was right, and he didn't know if such a move was worth it.

He couldn't deny the blood debt that was borne by the ghost ancestor in his arms.

Thinking about it this way, why did he come to this point?

Listening to his fast and slow heartbeat, Gui Wu Tsuji Wu Mi seemed to have finally settled his words: "What's wrong, are you starting to regret it now?"

With such ups and downs, there was still a hint of sarcasm in that tone, completely forgetting that the ghost who was terrified of Rihu before was himself.

"Do I still have a chance to regret it?" Zero said helplessly.

If given the chance, he also wants to go to the side that should be called right through and through.

Or simply, degenerate into a ghost.

After lying half-lying and leaning for so long, Wu Mi slowly stretched out his hand as if he finally had some strength.

But before he could touch the hands holding the rein, he avoided the bluish-blue nails reflexively.

"..." His eyes froze for a moment, and Wu Mi stopped his words and movements as if he had been smacked in the face.

Zero came back to his senses and didn't know what to say, so he could only ask dryly, "Uh, how are you?"

He swears, he really didn't mean it!

Who knows that it is always difficult to speculate on his thoughts, and he doesn't like others to find out what he wants to do!

If it was in the past...if it was in the past, he would naturally not refuse the approach of those hands.

It's just that there are too many things that can be mixed into such an intimate act now, and he is really tired now, and he doesn't bother to discern the one or two sincerities that may be hidden in it.

Here he needs to seriously warn everyone here that if you do too many things like finding sugar in a knife, you will really be exhausted.

And when Zero wanted to get this topic out of the way, Ghost Dance Tsuji was reluctant again.

It was only afterwards that he could say something like this: "Since you showed such resistance to my contact, why didn't you just watch me being killed by them just now?"

"...Then I turn around now?"

Does Gui Wu Tsuji Wu Mi know how weird his tone was to him when he said this?

Before he could express more opinions on this sentence, Zero heard Ghost Mai Tsuji Mumi laughing in a more carefree and determined voice.

He couldn't stop it.

"Admit it, Zero, you love me."

The low and malicious-sounding laughter, just the first sentence, directly tore something apart.

"So I knew from the beginning that you couldn't leave me, didn't you?"

Maybe looking back, the original meaning of Wu Mi's words shouldn't be intentional to mess up his heart so much.

For these few sentences, it took a long time to find a way to refute them.

He heard himself ask calmly and slowly at last:

"So, do you love me?"

The laughter stopped in the wind.
