Perhaps it was due to long-term blood loss, the girl's complexion was as pale as snowflakes quietly falling in the depths of winter.

It is white and soft, with a slight fragrance that can only be smelled when it is pasted together.

Like the water drops falling from the petals, or the breeze blowing through the flower branches, if you don't pay attention, you will be ignored.

Such a girl who looks like a flower and looks weak and gentle, and has nothing to do with fighting is his current master.

Yaken Toshiro sat next to Gu Yu, although he was just sitting on a chair in an ordinary posture, but he 'sat' with an indescribable arrogance.Maybe it's because he grew up with a sword from the battlefield.He has a sense of "unlike a dagger" in every gesture.

Of course, the same goes for temperament.

His master was sleeping, and there was no other sound in the room except the sound of shallow breathing.For humans, it may be a very boring scene, but for swords, it is a rare and ordinary scene.

It even made him a little nostalgic.

When he just descended into this world in the form of Fusangshen, he would often look like this.

The girl who is an ordinary person often falls ill because she cannot bear the blood loss and the fatigue caused by the battle.Most of the time, he is by her side like this, taking care of her daily life.

Mikami Tsukimune-sama...although his combat power is very strong, he is not a sword that is good at caring for people.

Therefore, most of the time, he takes on the work of going out to fight.

When Sanri Yuezong had to go out, there was only him and the sick master in the empty room. At that time, it was as quiet as today.

It's just that as the number of fusangshen increased, the house became more and more lively.It has been a long time since I experienced such a quiet scene as if it was only him and the master.

Fu Sangshen, who looked like a boy, reached out and touched the girl's forehead which was still hot.

"Pharmaceutical research?"

The person who was supposed to be sleeping suddenly opened his eyes.

"Did I wake you up, General?"

Yaken Toshiro subconsciously wanted to withdraw his hand, but was held back by the drowsy girl who was burning.

"Very comfortable."

Fusangshen's body temperature is slightly lower than that of humans, making people with fever feel very comfortable.

It's cool and cool, as if everyone is refreshed.

"Sorry, if I had noticed..." Had I noticed, you probably wouldn't have suffered from the pain.

The boy who was used to taking the responsibility on his own shoulders showed a guilty expression, boasting that he kept his master healthy.But all along, it has been making the owner injured and sick.

Simply, he was about to lose the honor of the bodyguard sword.

The young man lowered his head, with a sadness on his face that he didn't even notice - it was self-blame for his incompetence.

Seeing his expression, Gu Yu turned sideways slightly, and the hand that was holding his wrist slipped a little.He held the boy's hand, which was about the same size as his own but with a lower temperature.

"It's not your fault. After all, it's me who insists on going—if I wear more clothes, I'll be fine."

She knew that the temperature would drop sharply at night in the mountains and forests, but she didn't expect that something that should have been easy would drag on until the early morning.

"Those...I mean those ghouls, are they all dead?"

"Well. They're all dead... none of them escaped." They found them room by room, floor by floor.

The last one to be wiped out was Kirishiki Sako.

This girl ghoul who kept saying that she wanted to build an excessive girl ghoul that could shelter ghouls left all her companions and ran away alone.

When Gu Yu found her, she was hiding in what looked like a prayer room, praying with her fingers intertwined, but her voice was too low, she couldn't hear a word clearly.

"Ah... God gave us stronger power, isn't it so that we can build and protect our own homeland! Why... why did we encounter such a thing."

"If it's not like this, why make us feel a completely different power than before..."

The girl's voice was sad and desperate.His empty eyes stared straight at Gu Yu, as if he wanted to ask her for an answer.But what Gu Yu can give her.Only the knife in her hand...and a night from which she will never wake up again.

It's not that they can't understand the existence of non-human beings such as ghouls.After all, the world is so vast, and human beings are not the only creatures.

It's just that she can't forgive the guy who hurt her friend.

It doesn't matter if you are cursed by her.

After all, this is her own choice.

Noticing that the girl was lost in thought and there was no follow-up for a long time, Yaken Toshiro couldn't help calling softly:

"General? Are you worried about something?"

The girl who came back to her senses shook her head slightly.

"It's nothing... just thinking, it's a rare Qixi Festival, you don't have to stay with me at home, it doesn't matter if you go out to play."

I missed the New Year, and today is a rare traditional festival. For them, such a festival full of history may be more meaningful than those modern festivals.

I seem to have heard Jinjian and the others mention it before, so I should be looking forward to it.

Gu Yu supported her body on her elbows, sat up with the help of Yaoken and looked out the window.

After the hottest time of noon, although the outside is still bright, it is no longer as glaring as before.She was lethargic, and another half day passed.

"No need." Yaken Toshiro shook his head, "We are knives, so we don't have holidays."

Human beings are the only ones who celebrate festivals and give a certain meaning to a certain day.

For them, it is not so much that they want to celebrate the festival, but rather that they want to spend it happily with their master on the festival day.

"What a shame."

Gu Yu sighed.

In fact, she also understands that if she can't celebrate, her knife will not be happy either.

Not to mention going to the holidays.

dong dong dong.

After a heavy knock on the door, the tall Yan Rong walked in with a stoop.

"Oh, Master is awake—how do you feel?"

The young man sat down boldly. Without a chair, he sat directly on the ground beside the bed.But even so, his line of sight was almost parallel to Gu Yu who was sitting on the head of the bed.

"Much better."

Gu Yu tilted her head and smiled with crooked eyebrows.

Although her body was still limp and lacked strength, she felt more energetic.And having a spiritual head means that recovery is no longer far away.

"In that case, do you want to go out for a walk?" He took out a colorful promotional paper from his arms. "Neng, it is said that there will be fireworks. Go out and watch the fireworks, maybe the illness will be cured."

It's not a good thing to stay at home all the time.

"Whether it's a person or a knife, it won't rust if you keep moving it."

"Hey, what a great idea." Gu Yu took the promotional paper for the Qixi Festival fireworks.Fireworks will be set off on the embankment near the shrine, and the embankment will be closed at that time.

Shrines located on high ground and streets where festivals are held will be the best viewpoints.

"general!"

Although he also agreed with Yan Rong's statement, he could not agree with the practice of letting patients go out at night.

"What's the matter? Just go out to watch the fireworks for a while - I can wear thick clothes!" This is the first festival they have spent together, and I really don't want to let it go without doing anything.

The girl who was pale even when she had a fever stretched out her hands and rubbed her cheek vigorously, making it slightly flushed with blood.

"I see, please be sure to wear an extra thick coat."

"Okay—I'll wear one with a hat, and wrap myself up!"

The girl happily agreed.

Just after a while, she fell asleep because of the fever and exhaustion.

This sleep, I slept until night fell.

"Oops."

Although she was still a little drowsy, the girl felt that her body was looser and got out of bed hastily, fumbled to turn on the light, put on a thin shirt and went out.

Everyone should wait, right?I didn't expect that I would fall asleep—and I fell asleep for most of the afternoon.

When the girl walked to the stairs holding the wall, she happened to meet Yao Yan who came up with porridge.

"Why did the general get up? I was about to bring you dinner—"

"It's not in a hurry, I'm sorry I slept through it, have you been waiting for a long time?" Gu Yu shook her head, "We agreed to go to watch the fireworks..."

"...General." The boy walked to Gu Yu's side, holding the porridge tray firmly with one hand, and helping Gu Yu whose legs were slightly weak due to fever with the other hand. "Please..."

"I'm not going to lie down." Gu Yu pressed Yaken Toshiro's shoulder with his backhand. "I felt much more relaxed after sleeping again. Let's go out for a stroll? Yaoyan hasn't seen any fireworks yet, right?"

"general."

He really didn't think that the general in his current state could go to a shrine some distance away.

"If you're just watching the fireworks, it's okay if you don't go there, right?"

Wearing a rustling armor, Sanri Yue Zongjin, who had just returned and was still chilled, said with a smile.

"The roof is also a good viewing point."

Gu Yu's house is on the second floor, which is relatively high in this area. Although it is some distance from the river embankment, the view is quite wide.For the time being, I can see clearly.

He looked at the girl's expectant eyes, then at Taidao Fusangshin who was smiling next to him.

Yaken Toshiro could only sigh -- it's all about this, can he still object?

If these knives made the general feel sad, it would be against the original intention.

"Be sure to wear airtight clothes."
