When the candle flame extinguished, the room was plunged into darkness, and the sound of breathing was steady and even.

With an itchy side, Kikyo didn't open his eyes, and reached out to touch the side, and sure enough, he touched the cold blade. The smooth surface and complicated lines could easily distinguish it from the Iron Broken Tooth that had gone through several battles.

Tie Sui Fang stuck in the middle, like a dead knife.

Taidao wanted to get closer but couldn't, Kikyo picked it up and put it on the pillow side, the faint spiritual energy overflowing from the hair soothed its restless breath.

"One period, one shake, go to sleep." Kikyo closed his eyes, talking nonchalantly: "Today is an exception, and you heard what he said today, and for the next few days, just have a good time by yourself. Stay in this room, I will put a seal around you, no one will come to disturb you."

There was a faint power of words in her words, and the suppressed Taidao had to agree, and fell into a deep sleep with a hum.

A few petals floated from the window to her pillow. Kikyo picked up the petals and sniffed them lightly. It was a tsubaki.

The flowering period of camellia is very long, from winter to early summer, the fragrance is fresh and pleasant, it can make people feel refreshed after smelling it, it can indeed be used as an auxiliary medicine, platycodon grandiflorum is twisted with hands, and the light-colored flower liquid overflows from between her fingers Come, her pink nails dripped a drop on her fair face.

"It's Tsubaki..."

……

"master."

15-year-old Kikyo and her younger sister Feng stood beside the tree respectfully and bowed their heads in silence. The owner of the shrine took his favorite disciple Tsubaki and passed them by. The arrogance of the chief disciple drifted away without giving them extra attention.

Feng gently tugged Kikyo's sleeve, feeling sorry for his sister: "Sir..."

Kikyo held her hand and smiled back: "It's okay."

I just want to bring my younger sister to survive in this troubled world, whether it will be taken seriously, compared to my younger sister and my own life, and the hatred of my parents being killed, is not an important thing at all.

Doing rough and boring daily classes day after day, Kikyo didn't feel any resignation. This was the path she chose, so she had to go on no matter what.

After the daily classes and services are over, Kikyo can then have a short solitary time of his own. Kikyo hides in a corner, closes his eyes and recalls the spells practiced by those high-ranking witches he saw today, clumsily trying them one by one , failed again and again.

"Hey," a clear and delicate voice called her: "That technique doesn't do that, such a technique will only make the effect of the technique counterproductive, not even this, how did you become a witch? "

Kikyo stopped gesturing, stood up and gave a half-respect to the person coming, and said calmly, "Lord Chun."

Chun snorted coldly.

"I heard from the priestess who serves the gods that the newly recruited girl is very talented. I really wanted to meet her, but I never thought that she would be such a character, even the most basic spells and the simplest summoning shikigami. I don’t even know, even if you are talented, it’s just a false name.”

Kikyo said, "I will try my best."

At that time, she still had the stubbornness of a girl who refused to admit defeat, and she hadn't been indifferent and inattentive after several battles. Faced with such words, even though she was rational, she still couldn't help but argue. , There was no joy of relief in my heart, but a deep sense of powerlessness.

Because what Chun said is correct, even if the spiritual power is as vast as the river and sea, but there is no valve, even a drop of water cannot be extracted.

Facing Kikyo's soft and thorny reply, Tsubaki didn't say much, with a mocking smile on his face, he just gave her a cold look and then walked away, as if he came all the way here just to piss her off.

One is the high-ranking chief priestess, and the other is just an alternate priestess who handles shrine chores. Such irony is completely irrelevant to Kikyo.

Being bullied by the weak is called insult, but being bullied by the strong is called conquering. As things are like this, mortals can only follow the trend.

Kikyo quickly understood what the meaning of that glance before leaving was. She was no longer a little shrine maiden handling chores in the shrine, but started classes with other practicing maidens, even if it was only at the end near the door. The place has a place, and that's enough for her.

Kikyo thought, she should say thank you to Tsubaki.

It is completely different between a talented person and a non-talented person being a witch. If the spiritual power of the shrine master is as deep as the sea, then the spiritual power of Kikyo has reached the unfathomable level. She is several times as tall as she is, and she is also naturally intelligent, and soon surpassed all the witches who have practiced for many years in terms of spells, faintly and Chun have a tendency to stand shoulder to shoulder.

For such an outstanding disciple, the owner of the shrine was not necessarily very happy, but sighed in a complicated way: "Since the patriarch enjoys the food, you must work harder, and you must not slack off on this journey."

Kikyo kowtowed: "I would like to follow Master's instruction."

She walked backwards out of the door, Tsubaki walked past her and walked up to the owner of the shrine. Although her attitude was loose but just right, she seemed natural and close, and she obviously looked like a favored disciple.

The owner of the shrine has always treated Tsubaki as his own daughter, and when he saw Tsubaki, the serious expression on his face softened.

There were harmonious voices in the house.

Kikyo turned and left without hesitation.

The moment she passed by, she softly said "thank you" to Chun, and the witch Chun was as proud as before, as if she had never heard of it.

……

A snake-like shikigami hovered beside Tsubaki.

"I really didn't expect that one day we would become face-to-face enemies... In fact, this day should have been expected a long time ago. I don't regret promoting you, but you shouldn't take away what belongs to me."

Kikyo said: "The jade of the four souls is not yours."

Chun said, "You don't understand."

She smiled coldly: "Do you still remember the spells I said at the beginning? Although you are smart and have learned a lot, there is one thing that you must have never learned."

"It's black magic."

"Yes, but not right."

Tsubaki affirmed Kikyo's answer, smiling like a flower, her clear eyeballs rolled and lit up, there was a rustling wind behind her, and when she looked down, the snow-white blade was so sharp that it passed through her at some point. Chest, the stained blood is dripping down.

She reached out to hold the tip of the knife, and pushed the knife out of her body little by little, as if she didn't feel any pain at all.

"What you haven't learned is ruthlessness. In this world, only ruthlessness can make your life better, but you have never learned it, and you don't want to. After so many years, you are still as stupid as ever... "

Tsubaki pushed the knife completely out of his body with his backhand, turned around and swung a spell but was blocked by Kikyo. The lavender spiritual power and the blue-black power collided fiercely in mid-air and finally disappeared invisible. The exploded spiritual seeds were like rain The same scattered.

Kikyo finally said, "Don't touch him."

The snow-white robe on Miko Tsubaki's body turned black in an instant, and she raised her wide sleeves to cover half of her face: "Look, what I hate the most about you is that, what kind of patriarch gives you food, every step I take I tried my best to walk out, but you are different, there will always be someone who will take the initiative to stand up for you, and you don't have to stain your blood with your own hands and bear those heavy sins."

"Even though this knife is so weak and fragile, I don't even have the desire to kill him, but he still stands in front of you without hesitation... Hehe, if there is a choice, who would want to start Just let the blood stain the clothes..."

"Meeting you again in this situation, whether it is your nightmare or my nightmare... It doesn't matter anymore, don't disturb the peace of the deceased, don't you even remember this? Kikyo, I don't need Your thanks, and your apology, never.”

Kikyo said, "It never occurred to me to apologize to you."

"Hahaha...really?"

Chun's laughter stopped short: "Then I can rest assured, at least, I will never owe you anything."

She suddenly approached Kikyo and hugged Kikyo tightly, almost to the point of being close to each other. Even though she has become a black witch, it only made the original gorgeous and flamboyant beauty even better. The snow-white hair and Kikyo's black hair intersected in the Let's dance with the wind together.

With a slightly hoarse voice drilled into Kikyo's ears: "Don't trust 'him', and don't trust 'them'."

Chun's figure gradually dissipated in the illusion, only to see the last opening and closing of red lips: "Or, you can choose not to believe me, after all, between you and me... have always been eternal enemies..."

"From now on, we won't see each other again."

The light faded away, and the blue-haired man came out from Tsubaki's figure that was gradually disappearing, stared fixedly at Kikyo for a long time, and then half-kneeled in front of her.

He held the knife in his hand, and there was nothing on the clean blade: "Master Kikyo."

"Failed to kill the enemy for you, it is too incompetent for one strike."

Even if it is a fallen black witch who has died, as long as she is in the illusion, she still has the same powerful power as in the past. That kind of power is made up of all the resentment and ugliness in the world. The past sword Fusangshen is born with a suppressive effect.

Not to mention defeating Miko Tsubaki, even trying to assassinate her just now was completely ineffective, but pierced through the fake body on the surface.

If Kikyo hadn't stopped him, he would probably have broken his knife now. It was precisely because he knew the insurmountable gap in strength that he felt even more unwilling, but also more unwilling to give up.

"Phase [-], this is my dreamland, you can't stay here for a long time, wait now, I'll send you out soon," Kikyo pushed him with a purple light in his palm, and pushed him over: " You will not violate my order, this is the promise you once made."

Yiqi grabs her maiden hem: "Even though Yiqi has seen your past and participated in your world, are you still unwilling to fully accept Yiqi?"

"I don't have a deep impression of what Hasebe said. Now... the memory of the first issue has become blurred... I can't even say for sure that I didn't do such a thing, but this place No one is more familiar than the first issue, even if I keep the shape of the knife, at least, you can rest assured where I can see it..."

He desperately wanted to explain to himself, but he didn't know where to start, and finally he gradually lost his voice under Kikyo's always calm gaze.

Kikyo said: "You probably still don't understand, what you saw, what you heard, those are not important, for me, those are just some unchangeable memories, and I will not be trapped here by the memory."

"One episode, one vibe, don't stick to the memory of the past. Memories have no power."

***

The little paper man wiped his eyes and jumped off the paper door, almost spraining his foot in this jump.

"Hey, hey - I said what are you doing standing in front of the girl's room with such a big and tall guy? It seems that you have bad intentions..."

It yelled all of a sudden, and suddenly remembered that Kikyo hadn't gotten up yet, so it had to cover its mouth in a panic, but it didn't expect that the door behind it had been opened, and a pair of beautiful feet with foot bags came out stepping on clogs.

Kikyo tried her best to raise her head, and met the other party's bewildered eyes: "...good morning."

The tall Fu Sangshen, who was wearing an inner uniform, had heavy golden eye makeup on his eyebrows, but he could not hide his sculpted facial features. He was extremely tall, and the top of his head was almost touching the beams of the house, so he could only look down pitifully. With his head down, he still held the magic tool of exorcism in his hand.

"I……"

It seemed that it was a bit difficult to explain the behavior of guarding the door of the woman's room in the early morning. He got stuck several times and looked dazed.

Kikyo asked: "Are you... Taro Tachi?"

This sentence seemed to have suddenly turned on the strange button of the sword Fusangshen. He straightened up all of a sudden, and then the top of his head hit the beam with a bang.

"Are you okay?"

The tall man bent down slightly. Although his face was painted with a completely different makeup from the world, he unexpectedly looked very gentle: "I am Taro Tachi. As you can see, I have a height that can be used by extraordinary people, so I am enshrined. The sword... However, there have been people who used me in actual combat... But in fact, it is a practical sword that humans should not be able to use."

"No matter what the purpose is, if it's a sword, it should be wielded on the battlefield, right?"

Kikyo couldn't fully keep up with his sudden change of thoughts, so he could only go along with the flow: "However, I don't think there is any good place outside my room for actual combat. It's not a winter night here, but it's still cold after all."

Taro Tachi was ashamed.

"Please allow me to explain. The reason why I waited outside the door of the lord is because I walked around here last night and noticed that there seems to be a bad smell here..."

She asked: "Bad smell, what kind of breath is that? I don't seem to notice it."

"Later."

Taro Tachi closed his eyes and felt it for a while, but his nose keenly smelled the fragrance of bellflower, the elegant but pleasant smell of a woman entered into his consciousness uncontrollably, messing up his already dull thinking even more. Without speaking, Shendao's thin face turned red first.

Where can I smell good and bad smells now? It seems that the black air that suddenly emerged last night is just an illusion.

Kikyo urged slightly: "How?"

"Oh..."

He opened his eyes, and said a little hesitantly: "Maybe I made a mistake... But I did notice that bad thing last night..."

"Humph!"

"To explain is to cover up, and to cover up is to find a reason!"

Taro Tachi stared at his shoe uppers, only to find a little paper figurine jumping up and down on his feet, so he had to squat down to look at it: "I never... The evil spirit is invading, it is nearby, but the lord has already fallen asleep, I dare not disturb, so I can only guard outside the door... There is no other meaning, and I hope the lord will not misunderstand."

The little paper man pouted in dissatisfaction, with a look of disbelief: "Then you dare to say that you really don't have any other thoughts right now?"

Kikyo gently pushed the little paper figurine behind him, warned it, and said to Taro Tachi: "Please don't take what it says to heart, you don't need to answer boring questions, Taro Tachi is a magic sword with a noble heart , of course there will be no idea."

She smiled at the tall Fusangshen, "Is that right?"

"Oh..." Taro Tachi stood up in a panic, accidentally bumped his head against the ceiling, and said quickly without even reaching out to rub the top of his head, "Miko-sama is really overrated."

He paused for a moment, then continued: "Although Taro Tachi is a divine sword, it has gone deep into the world and has been in contact with the battlefield. It is still different from the previous divine sword. Please don't confuse it. After all, Not all Taro-tachi are Taro-tachi."

Kikyo has never gotten up late due to the habits left over from his previous practice. It was still early in the morning, and the thin morning light shone on Fu Sangshen's face. The red eye makeup at the corners of his eyes seemed to be plated with a layer of gold. A true god is no different.

She narrowed her eyes slightly: "Since I troubled you to watch outside the door all night, how about we go to the room to check it now? Maybe it's because I have missed something."

"It's just that if you continue to consume like this, I don't know if your body can bear it."

Taro Tachi is a god, even the last god is different from normal people, even if he can't rest for a night, it's not a big problem, but no one will feel unhappy when he is cared about.

He smiled faintly: "Don't worry, my lord, I'm fine."

The owner of the room was allowed to go first, and Taro Tachi followed, but he was too tall, so he could only step into Kikyo's room door with his waist down and aggrieved.

The maiden's room is as simple as her own. Although it has been tidied up in advance and gorgeous utensils are placed, those luxurious parts have not been touched at all, and even the simple and elegant ornaments are still in their original form. It seems that I don't like it when I put it there.

It seems that as long as the witch leaves at any time, there will be no trace of her presence here.

Taro Tachi frowned indistinctly.

"what happened?"

Kikyo asked him, "Have you discovered anything new?"

He circled the room, carefully sensing the atmosphere in every corner of the room, but found nothing wrong. As a magic knife, he can't make mistakes in sensing evil, but yesterday it only appeared for a moment, and then It was quickly suppressed.

If you think about it this way, it might be a misunderstanding.

Taro Taidao said: "Maybe I made a mistake before... I didn't notice anything wrong in this room. Miko-sama is very powerful. I shouldn't use an ax in front of you. Please forgive me for the trouble I caused." .”

Kikyo shook his head: "It's not a trouble, just because of a possible danger, I just waited in front of the door all night, and I didn't even have time to thank you—"

"Please don't say that," Taro Tachi, who looked flirtatious, made people feel loyal in his heart, he said humbly, "Taro Tachi just did what he should do, fulfilled his duty, as long as your lord has nothing to do That's great, Taro Tachi can feel at ease."

The disparity in height made him look down at the top of Campanulaceae even if he lowered his head. The woman's hair is of excellent quality, like top-quality silk. Not tied by a hair band, it hangs naturally on the shoulders, making that jade-like face small.

There is a golden light in his eyes, I don't know if it is the morning light or something else.

Taro Taidao sighed softly: "Sir, I have a feeling of ruthlessness. Since I have confirmed that there is no evil spirit, I wonder if it is possible... to go to the main hall to have dinner with me? It has been a long time since there have been any guests here. It is inconvenient to have dinner with your subordinates, if you are willing to go, many swords must be happy."

After hesitating for a while, he added: "Even if it's a one-time strike, it doesn't matter."

The author has something to say:
