[Comprehensive] Mirror of Death and Life

I have never understood what this princess of the Fire Country is doing.Let’s say she doesn’t look like a nobleman. She behaves elegantly and is very particular about her way of speaking. Say she is a qualified daimyo princess. When she was supposed to be at the banquet, she ran to the side courtyard where the ninja lived alone. The extraordinary behavior not only surprised me, but also Makoto Uchiha.

"Mirror, can I talk to you?" The princess came out from the shadows. She was wearing a yellow dress, and her hair was tied behind her waist with a headband of the same color. This dress should reflect the current late autumn season. .But I don't have the time to appreciate her outfit now, mainly because when she said this, Uchiha Makoto stared at me and his eyes were on fire, his eyebrows were raised and his eyes were raised, and he almost said "What did you do again?" "The rebuke.

The heavens can prove that I really didn't do anything, and I didn't even expect this princess to come to me.

Seeing the two of us deadlocked in place, without answering or making any movement, the girl couldn't help but took a few more steps towards this side: "Mr. Cheng?"

Makoto Uchiha had no choice but to let me down. He couldn't bear the title of a gentleman like a princess, and he didn't dare to really let me stay alone together. If something happened, the entire Uchiha clan would be punished by the daimyo Blame, he thought for a while, walked a dozen meters away and stood with his back facing us, so that the not-too-distant distance can not only leave room for conversation, but also ensure that he can arrive as soon as possible in case of an accident.

The princess also realized this, smiled bitterly, said nothing more, and tilted her head at me: "Where shall we sit down?"

Following her slender fingers, I saw the corridor outside the house, hesitated for a moment, and confirmed that my sore body and clear mind were not dreams or hallucinations, so I nodded in agreement.

Said it was sitting, but I dare not really sit side by side with her. A few meters away, I half squatted and half sat. Although this posture is very hard, I can definitely jump up and move immediately.

"Isn't it uncomfortable for you?" The princess smiled at me. Seeing that I bowed my head and didn't answer, she had to sigh, "Okay, whatever you want. I just want to talk to someone."

why me?The idea immediately popped into my head.

The princess has a personal maid, and she has been with her since she was a child, and she has been with her all the way. The relationship must be much closer than mine.No matter how bad it is, there is that female ninja. Compared with women, it is easier to open up topics. Why is it that I, a strange ninja of the opposite sex, appeared halfway to protect her?Don't say she likes this kind of words, I'm not Hui, I know very well that there is no light in the eyes of the princess who has a crush on the girl, why do I know so clearly...Because Yazhi has looked at me like this for a long time...

"Yazhi likes you very much, and she told me a lot about you along the way." I don't know if this princess from the Land of Fire has some telepathy skills, but she actually used Yazhi to start the conversation.She looked at my face carefully, smiled and said softly: "You are really good-looking, she didn't lie to me."

"..." I don't know what Yazhi said to her. To be honest, the current atmosphere makes me very uncomfortable. It's better to have an enemy and let me kill it for a while.

A gust of icy night wind blew past, blowing away the clouds, and the thick dark clouds dispersed at some point, and the moon, which was nearly full, appeared, scattering the clear light all over the ground.In the pale courtyard, the ground is full of withered grass, which looks even more decadent in the middle of the night.In autumn, the temperature dropped very quickly. I don’t know when it was. The temperature was very low. Goosebumps appeared on my exposed arms. I didn’t feel anything yet, but I watched the princess in thick clothes shivering under the gusts of cold wind. When I got up, I saw her lips turned white, obviously from the cold.It's just that she herself is still stubborn and refuses to enter the house, whispering to me what Yazhi said to me.

I heard that her teeth were a little chattering, and she was upset. How could I be in the mood to hear what Meizhi told her about me? I turned my head and looked not far away. As straight as a knife, the knife on the back is clearly outlined.

"She said that you are a genius of the Uchiha clan and her fiancé. She is very glad that you grew up with her, so that she has more opportunities to contact you. Even so, she always feels that she does not understand You. Since you were a child, it seems that you have hidden a lot of things on your mind. Her grandfather once said that you are very thoughtful when you are young, but you are not suitable for marriage. "

I don’t know that Uchiha Saiki also said this about me. The old man with white hair and beard is full of energy. Every time he sees me, he pats me on the shoulder and laughs, praising me for being young and promising. His voice is very Hong Liang, the children in the clan said privately that the whole clan could hear the elder's voice, but this time when the news of Yazhi's death came back, I don't know how the old man would react.

"Yazhi always says that you are handsome. When you mention your future child, he must be a very cute genius. Then she will tell him about your embarrassing things when you were young..."

"What does your highness want to say?"

I think I can't listen anymore, maybe the princess thinks it's recalling Yazhi, but to me, every word and every word is like sharp knives In my heart, I can't help but remind myself Yazhi's every move is a frown and a smile, but this kind of miss is even more ridiculous after her death.

The best way to pay homage to the dead is to send those who killed her to Santuchuan to apologize to her.The blood debt between me and the Asagiri Clan has been increased after this mission, and one day I will...

"...I don't know what I want to say." Perhaps feeling cold, Her Royal Highness folded her arms around her chest, hugged her arms on both sides and curled up, "My name is Aokiji. I heard it was because I was born The night before, Father dreamed of a blue bird, why are you called Mirror?"

Parents always hope that their children will achieve extraordinary achievements, and often the name should be as good as possible. For example, when the father dreamed of the blue bird when he was born, he would naturally believe that this daughter is a gift from God, but no matter how great the gift is, it will only benefit the child. It didn't matter before.Perhaps in the eyes of the Fire Nation daimyo, using her daughter to marry to gain the support of the Thunder Nation is her best role.Thinking about it this way, they can't control their own lives. They are raised in cages like canaries and will be exchanged when necessary. These noble girls are also very pitiful.

I took off the cloak and put it on the girl beside me. Only then did I realize that she was actually slender and thin. This point was covered by layers of large clothes before, but it was only revealed by the weight of the heavy cloak.

Seeing her reaching for the cloak, I backed away again, looked into her dark eyes under the moonlight and said, "I don't know the meaning of my name, probably not." My mother was attacked when she gave birth to me. It is the most fortunate thing for her not to die because of this. Not blaming me is her best effort, and of course she doesn't care much about my name.

Aokiji looked at me for a moment, the pity expression on her face made me a little uncomfortable, she seemed to be aware of this, and quickly readjusted her expression, smiling at me: "I know."

"Ok?"

"I know the meaning of the mirror's name. The mirror is a sacred thing. It can be hung on the chest to ward off evil spirits and has extraordinary magical power. The legendary Yata mirror is also the imperial spirit of Amaterasu. The parents of the mirror gave you this The name must have the meaning of praying for the protection of God Amaterasu."

She loosened the cloak and stretched out her hands to hold one of my hands. As soon as the two skins touched, I found that the hands of the nobles who have been carefully maintained are indeed different from mine. They are both fourteen or five-year-old girls, princesses. Your Highness's hands are soft and delicate, but Yazhi's joints and fingertips are covered with a thick layer of calluses. Even the little fox does not have calluses. Compared with the princess, it is still much rougher. That is the one I am familiar with and kind. Touch, not like now, no matter how uncomfortable it feels.

The princess didn't seem to notice how inappropriate our two postures are at the moment. Not only did she not let go of my hand, but she held it gently against her cheek. Feeling the cold and soft touch under my fingers, my whole body became stiff.

It shouldn't be my illusion, the body of this lady from the Land of Fire really leaned towards me.

She tilted her head and gently rubbed against the palm of my hand, like a cat seeing the person she loves lower her haughty head and put down her proud posture, and sighed in a tone full of attachment: "I really envy Yazhi. , not only is she capable, but she also has a mirror to protect her."

"...If necessary, all the ninjas in the Land of Fire will protect Her Highness the Princess."

Aokiji chuckled, raised his head and looked at me, and said softly: "You also said that if it is necessary. If it is necessary, such as my father orders, you will assassinate me together. Just like this marriage, no matter No matter how much I want to refuse in my heart, I can't resist Father's order."

From her words, I vaguely understood the deep meaning, immediately stood up, withdrew my hands and knelt on one knee: "Sorry, this is a task."

She also slid down the corridor, bent down and knelt on the ground to hug me, the girl's soft body was lightly rubbed into my arms, her hands were wrapped around her neck, I could hear her gentle breathing, and smell the hair on her hair. Unknown aroma.

The gray cloak slipped from the princess and piled up on the ground at my feet, and the gorgeous yellow and red clothes were very vivid in the dark night.I heard a gentle voice in my ear, and she exhaled like a blue and whispered close to my ear: "Tell Jing a secret, I have already accepted my fate. But because of Jing, I have the idea of ​​struggling again. Me, just Like the bright moon in the sky, I love and admire the mirror. Does the mirror have the same mood? If so, please take me away, I am willing to give up the identity of the princess, as long as I can be with the mirror."

"..."

Suddenly, I thought of Hui's flushed face after returning the lunch box that time. It turned out that Her Royal Highness was looking for someone for herself at that time.

It seems that Uchiha Teru is not the only idiot who believes in the love between the princess and the ninja in the story.

Slowly and firmly pulled the girl out of my arms and pulled her hand away. I stared at the beautiful face close at hand and repeated what I said just now: "Sorry, this is my task."
