[Gintama] Killing Knight

Under the empty gray sky, there was a black shadow.

There was a few fluttering sounds of wings, and the crows in twos and threes got together, raised their heads to the sky or pecked at the ground, forming a mess.And the background of these usually ominous creatures is—

A battlefield in the wilderness.

Corpses all over the place, the ground stained red with blood, scattered remains of broken limbs, knives that were randomly discarded and stuck on the ground... everything shows how tragic the battle has taken place in this place before.

Then, without warning—a black crack was torn in the air.

This weird gap twists and expands, stretches, and slowly opens, revealing the world inside the gap.

It was a chaotic black color, and the violent energy inside almost distorted space and time. It was clearly a domain where creatures could never exist, but a person fell out of the gap after the gap was opened.

Yes, a person fell out of it.

It was a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl, her eyes were closed tightly, and she had obviously fallen into a coma. The clothes on her body were torn in many places, and blood slowly flowed out along these openings.

The crack opened three or four meters above the ground, and the girl remained motionless after falling to the ground, only the blood flowing from her body, like other corpses, stained the ground red.

Suddenly, the girl seemed to be experiencing some great pain. Even though she was still in a coma, she was trembling. Cold sweat flowed down her forehead one by one, and wet her hair.Her already pale complexion was almost bloodless, and her whole body twitched and curled up, as if driven and oppressed by some invisible thing, on the verge of limit.Immediately, a jaw-dropping change took place, the girl was in such an extremely bad state, and in the obvious pain, her body shrank a little bit.

From a girl of thirteen or fourteen to a girl of about six years old.

That invisible force seemed to have achieved some kind of victory, and did not continue to expel this 'foreign visitor', and disappeared without a trace as if it had never appeared.The little girl's expression also eased a little, but she was still in a coma.

The crows that had been flying away when the weird crack opened regrouped and hoarsely croaked around the little girl.

Strangely, when she had just experienced those pains, most of the injuries on her body healed strangely.

After an unknown amount of time, the girl became short of breath, frowned slightly, and finally opened her eyes.The blood-like red eyes stared blankly at the lead-colored sky, extremely confused.

The brain is blank.

The little girl sat up, some oversized clothes were hanging on her body, which looked very unfit, but the girl was not in the mood to pay attention to these things at all, she looked around, and all she could see was the black clothes that were a little farther away from her. crow and...

Bloody sky.

Something sharp and heavy pierced into her nerves. The little girl hugged her head and curled up on the ground, helpless like a fish out of water. Tears spread all over her cheeks. Her mouth seemed to be thinking He called for something, only to realize that he couldn't remember anything.

"Uhhhhh-"

It was as if someone had dug a big hole in her chest, and the wind was blowing into it. She was shivering from the cold, and it hurt as if a large piece of her heart had been torn off directly, dripping with blood.

Pain, despair, anger, hatred, madness... and deep yearning.

The remaining emotions tore at her soul, almost breaking her down.

"Ahhhh-!!"

******

Sakata Gintoki sat idly against a tree with a grass stalk in his mouth. The newly grown plant was very fresh, fresh but with an astringent taste, and the bloody rice balls and other foods he found on the battlefield They were all different, which made the boy who had folded it casually chew on it for a while with novelty.

But it's a pity that I can't fill my stomach.

Popping out the tasteless grass stalks, Sakata Gintoki held the knife tightly, thinking about when he would go to the battlefield to find something to eat.

"Goo-"

Well, don't think about it, let's go now.

Grabbing a small piece of grass that was still growing, the silver-haired boy stuffed it into his mouth, got up from the ground, roughly determined the direction, took a step, and unconsciously clenched the knife.

——Only with the knife, he will not be too disturbed.

Carefully shuttled across the battlefield, using various shelters to hide his figure, and checked over and over again whether the surrounding environment was safe. The boy knew that a small battle had just erupted here a few days ago, and it is very likely that there will be another battle now. There are humans or celestial beings.

Whatever happens is going to be bad.

Ghouls in the eyes of humans, prey in the eyes of heaven and man.

—In short, he is an outlier.

The boy's auburn eyes were full of desolation, even when he thought of his sad life experience, he didn't feel much moved.The obviously cute little face is now covered with mud and blood, and the corners of the mouth are tightly pursed, and the somewhat thin body seems to be tense all the time. The whole person looks like a beast cub on the verge of danger.

And now, the little cub was stunned.

Tianren raised the knife and rushed at the little girl in strange clothes in front of it, but because of the injury on her leg, she couldn't step on it. She staggered and then slashed sideways. When she regained her senses, she realized that the prey was gone. The petite and nimble girl saw the opening and almost plunged into its arms. Immediately afterwards, the girl flipped her wrist, and a strange dagger ruthlessly pierced into its fragile abdomen.

Heaven and Man roared loudly because of pain or anger, with a ferocious face and wanted to raise the knife to penetrate the girl's body. The girl who was stuck with the dagger didn't like to fight, and gave up the delicate and precious girl without hesitation. The dagger rolled on the spot from the gap under Tianren's arm, grabbed a handful of blood-stained guns on the ground, and slashed hard, causing another not-so-shallow wound on Tianren's calf.

The girl finally gave up Yudou, and her tight little body jumped up to attack. Taking advantage of her unique advantage of short sight, she ruthlessly stabbed the knife into the armpit without armor protection, directly penetrating half of Tianren's body.

"Pfft—!"

With the sound of the knife being drawn, a large amount of blood gushed out from the wound, even splashing on the girl who was too late to leave. Tianren maintained a ferocious expression, twitched violently a few times, and fell to the ground.

Sakata Gintoki maintained a somewhat dull surprised expression, watching the girl vigilantly approaching Tianren's still twitching body with a knife, because he was afraid that he would not die, he simply pierced the throat with the knife, and then he was relieved and used all his strength. Pull out the dagger.

But the first thing he did after pulling out the dagger was to suddenly look up in his direction, and before he could react, a sharp piercing sound came with an invincible momentum, which was unavoidable.

puff.

The blade pierced the flesh.

pat.

Blood slapped the ground.

Eyes wide open in disbelief, the silver-haired boy turned around slowly, and what was reflected in his auburn eyes was the scene of a heaven and man with an expression of unwillingness crashing to the ground.

The dagger that was precisely inserted into the throat of the Heavenly Man was the dagger that was held by the girl just now. Looking at it from a distance, I thought this dagger was a bit strange, but now that it is close, it is really different.

Needless to say, it is beautiful and delicate like an ornament, but it is undoubtedly a very sharp dagger. The thin blade is shining with silver light, and the blood stains on it and the blood-colored pattern on the handle are unexpectedly harmonious. , has a weird beauty.

As if... as it should be.

Sakata Gintoki suddenly shivered, and quickly turned around to look at the girl who was standing two meters behind him at some point, subconsciously grasped the knife, but relaxed the next moment.

The girl was really small, like a six or seven-year-old girl, a little smaller than he looked, thin and thin, but the energy just burst out of such a thin and weak body solved the two heavenly beings.The clothes on her were a little strange, not quite like a kimono, but the blood stains covered half of her body, and the original style could hardly be seen, and there was no expression on her face, just looking at him expressionlessly.

This girl reveals weirdness and mystery everywhere, but now Sakata Gintoki doesn't have the heart to pay attention to these. For him, the person in front of him is not dangerous to him, and this is the most important thing.

To be honest, even if he knew rationally that he couldn't let his guard down, he still couldn't be hostile to this girl who was younger than him, not to mention that she saved his life just now-even if her strength was really terrifying for her age .

So what is he going to say next?Sakata Gintoki looked at those unwavering blood-colored eyes, and he didn't know how to react. He, he had no experience in communicating with people, and he didn't know how to communicate with girls at this time. .

The girl stayed there motionless, without even blinking her eyes, as if she was waiting for him to speak.

Although he didn't quite understand it, but he could keenly feel the stagnation of the surrounding air, the boy swallowed nervously - later he would understand that this kind of atmosphere was called embarrassment - and tentatively said: "That, that, you... "

"Goo-"

The boy's expression froze.

The girl remained expressionless, but something seemed to flash past her eyes.

"..."

Although he still didn't understand what shame was, Sakata Gintoki, who really felt this subtle emotion, was completely silent.

Now he refuses to speak!

The girl remained silent and expressionless, as if seeing that the boy had no intention of speaking again, she turned around and left calmly.Leaving the boy alone watching her movements in a daze, unable to react.

...it feels more subtle.

The boy with natural curly hair, who still doesn't quite understand, stood silently, rather desolately, with a pitiful aura of "begging for comfort", just like an abandoned puppy, with poor curly hair drooping .

"...here."

A voice so subtle that it was almost inaudible, managed to attract the boy's attention.Looking up and seeing the white rice ball held in his small hands, the boy felt unbelievable and at the same time hungrier.

Like a frozen photo, the same picture lasted for several minutes before slowly moving like a movie after evolution.The boy looked at the girl's still unwavering eyes, pursed his lips, and took it carefully. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he felt that the moment he took it, the aura around the girl softened a lot.

Forget it, anyway, he won't have trouble with food, let's talk about everything after he's full.

Slowly chewing the rice ball in his hand, the boy kept looking at the girl opposite.Biting the rice balls like him, the girl turned a blind eye to his scrutiny, and seemed to maintain such a flat attitude all the time, nothing could be reflected in her eyes, just like...

Same as those dead bodies.

The boy felt so inexplicably.

Although she can eat, run and talk, but... there is a feeling that the girl is dead.Not referring to the body, but the deeper aspects.

It wasn't until he bit his own finger when he opened his mouth again that Sakata Gintoki realized belatedly that the onigiri was gone, and unnaturally shook the painful finger, and when he looked up again, he found that the girl had also solved the finger Food, a pair of eyes staring straight at himself.

Sakata Gintoki thumped in his heart.

... Now that I looked closely at each other, I realized that the girl's eyes were extremely empty, as if the inner part had been destroyed.

Seeing him looking at herself, the girl nodded slightly towards him and stood up as if she had finished something.Without saying a word, he turned and left.

Sakata Yinshi subconsciously stood up and followed a few steps before blurting out a sentence: "Where are you going?"

The girl stopped in her tracks and said slowly after a few seconds of silence, "...No, follow me."

Sakata Gintoki was stunned suddenly, his heart seemed to be tightly grasped by a huge hand, and even his breathing was choked for a moment, only indescribable pain flowed from the heart to the whole body along the blood.

Ahhh, why did I forget, my own existence rejected by humans, this ominous ghoul...

"With me, sooner or later you too will be unhappy."

……

Eh?When did he speak his mind?

Sakata Gintoki was so shocked that he lost his expression, he could only stare blankly at the girl who turned her back to him, and for the first time, there was a sad expression on her expressionless face.

No... Maybe it's not as simple as sadness, but that expression is too complicated and confusing, not only he doesn't understand, but even the owner of the expression can't understand it.

What was she hurting, what was she hating, where did the tyrannical impulse to destroy everything come from, and in the end... who was she thinking about?

Can't remember... can't remember can't remember can't remember.However, there is one thing she is very clear about——

"Don't come near me...if you don't want to be unlucky."

It's a curse.
