[Gintama] Killing Knight

Chapter 20 Tears Under the Firelight

One thing is very vague in Matsushita private school.

It is Takasugi Shinsuke, Katsura Kotaro, Sakata Gintoki and Sakata Hikaru, who is the strongest.

If we only look at the usual kendo sparring, it is natural that Shinsuke Takasugi and Gintoki Sakata have won more times, but these four people have a faint meaning that Hikaru Sakata is the boss.

In fact, I can also imagine that Sakata Hikaru may not be the strongest in strength, but his aura is the strongest. He is a good cook of dark cuisine, and she is still a girl. It is normal for the other three to let her.

However, what puzzled the other boys in the private school was that Shinsuke Takasugi, who had defeated Hikaru Sakata many times, was very jealous of her, and even made it clear that he did not want to fight her.

Because... Takasugi Shinsuke at this time is still a 'human'.

But his instinct told him that Hikaru Sakata was an existence that could not be messed with.

Finally, today, he finally saw the side of her that usually suppressed herself, and had slowly fallen asleep after years of peaceful life.

The flames soared into the sky, and under the billowing smoke, there was the roar of a beast that had just bared its fangs.The side that is usually imprisoned in chains and cages is especially terrifying when it is released.

Not even a decent weapon, only a 12-year-old girl, snatched the weapon from the enemy's hand, and cut off the throat of anyone who dared to draw a knife at her very cruelly.

The background is the blazing private school fire, and the ferocious fire snake devours everything, making a silent but suffocating shivering scream in such a deep and dark night.The fire logs fell overwhelmed, splashing debris on the black ground.There is an unpleasant choking smell in the air, mixed with the fresh smell of blood, which makes people sick to the stomach.Stepping on the fallen corpse, stepping on the blood that had just splashed on the floor, Hikaru Sakata came with a knife in his hands, his eyes were bloody red.

The person who went to suppress her was already out of breath, and blood was still gushing out from the fatal wound on the front of her neck.Hikaru Sakata's black hair danced in the scorching air, and his ghostly eyes bit the enemy wearing a bamboo hat.

"Let them go."

Shinsuke Takasugi, who was unconscious, and Katsura Kotaro, who had been knocked out, were held in the hands of two uniformly dressed guys. The other party was completely unmoved by Hikaru Sakata's words, and drew out his sword to prepare for the battle.

Before Takasugi Shinsuke passed out completely, the last image deeply imprinted in his mind was the almost crazy eyes of Hikaru Sakata rushing towards him with a knife.

That's not what 'humans' are supposed to be.

Unprecedented power erupted at this critical juncture. Hikaru Sakata went crazy and exchanged injuries for injuries, reaping the lives of two people, but she didn't touch anything, whether it was her shoulders, thighs or sides. The deep knife wound in the abdomen is still the fact that two lives were lost in his hands.

She walked over the dead body on the ground with a cold expression, her eyes didn't fluctuate, and after putting the fainted Gao Shan and Gui An in a safe place, she turned around and rushed outside the private school.

"Let go ... my teacher ah ah ah ah ah ah !!!"

A beam of saber light struck through the air with lightning speed, leaving terrifying scars behind the enemy who was caught off guard. Hikaru Sakata turned around and raised the saber, slashed down with inertia, and cut off one of the enemy's arms neatly, followed by a He dodged and rushed over, almost leaving only afterimages, and slashed at the next enemy with all his strength.

Instead of the expected burst of blood, the blades collided. Hikaru Sakata was just a child, and the tremendous strength was transmitted along the blade to the hand holding the blade. The strong impact almost made her unable to hold the blade.Hikaru Sakata gritted his teeth and stood up abruptly, his muscles tensed, and the wound he had been cut before split open and bled again.

"Huh-ahhhh!!!"

Raising his arms, Hikaru Sakata avoided the fast-moving knife with a low body, but quickly changed his hand, adjusting the direction of the blade and piercing the enemy's calf fiercely.

Blood splattered, and Hikari Sakata, whose face was smeared with indistinguishable blood from himself or the enemy, had a particularly terrifying expression.

The loss of blood on her body made her weaker and weaker, but she couldn't find this point at all just by watching her battles. Each attack became more ruthless, even if the back was cut again, and the left shoulder was pierced by a short blade, the tiger's mouth was also pierced by the huge impact. The momentum began to burst, and he still didn't feel like fighting the enemy in front of him.

"Ah Guang—!!"

Seeing the girl, Sakata Ginshi, who was kneeling on the ground with his hands tied, was furious, struggling to get out of control, but the Zen stick on his throat tightened more and more, choking him to cough.

"Let go of them——!!"

How could the two people she cherished the most be treated like this by these trash!

Her long-overloaded body couldn't support her desire to continue fighting, and her movements began to be slow, and finally she was caught in the gap. The Zen staff wrapped in a powerful force and rolled up the airflow, hitting Hikaru Sakata's abdomen, hitting her hard. It flew out, fell to the ground and rolled several times before barely stopping.

The pain almost swallowed all her consciousness, but compared to this, what made her suffer more was the predictability, the hopeless panic of losing something.

Hikaru Sakata arched his back tremblingly, the arm supporting his body on the ground was trembling all the time, then suddenly bent down, coughing up several mouthfuls of blood as if vomiting.

Even so, she frantically moved her hand to grab the knife that fell in front of her.

"Stop it!!"

Following Sakata Gintoki's hoarse roar, Sakata Hikaru's right hand was firmly nailed to the ground by a knife, someone came over, stepped on her raised head and pressed it into the ground, and crushed it a few times.

Sakata Gintoki had never hated his own weakness so much. He couldn't stop those people who left with the teacher, and now he could only watch Aguang fight, get injured, and be trampled on by such humiliation.

The hard and sharp sand and gravel on the ground scratched Hikaru Sakata's face, causing burning pain.She didn't move as if she had finally given up resisting, panting heavily, and after a long time, she managed to raise her head, looking at the extremely familiar Qing Jun's back that she had been watching for five years.

"..." She opened her mouth, her throat seemed to be blocked, "...Song...Songyang..."

The sob that seemed to be squeezed out from the deepest part of the throat, coughing heavily with breathing, the sweet smell filled the nose and mouth, Sakata Hikaru was crying silently like a cub on the verge of extinction.

"Old, teacher..."

"Let go of her!"

With an angry rebuke, one hand grabbed Hikaru Sakata's hair and lifted her up, and the wound on his right hand, which was still pinned to the ground, was pulled, bleeding profusely.Hikaru Sakata glared at the green-skinned celestial being in front of him, with ruthless eyes as if he would not be reconciled until his bones were crushed.

But the other party chuckled, his ferocious face pulled out a laugh full of interest as if he saw something interesting, and his voice was ugly and rough like rusty gears were turning.

"Interesting, it's so interesting, I didn't expect to see such eyes in such a place where there are wild monkeys in the countryside."

He grabbed Sakata's bald-haired hand tightly, and pressed Sakata's head heavily to the ground.

When he ignored Yoshida Matsuyo and Sakata Gin who were irritated, he raised Sakata Hikaru's head again and looked at her.There was a hideous wound on her forehead, and the blood flowed down to cover Hikaru Sakata's eyes. She could only close one eye, and stared at Tianren more and more fiercely.

"Obviously a wild beast that was born to fight, but is willing to put chains on itself and lock it in a cage automatically?" Tianren smiled wildly, "What do you want to protect? Soon you will know, you will protect everything No, the things you care about will only be destroyed under your gaze, and the things you want to hug will only be crushed by your sharp claws."

"This is your fate, your predestined way of Asura, do you think you can protect it by killing? Don't be naive, you will only turn into a ghost and bring misfortune to those around you, pathetic person."

Hikaru Sakata's breathing became heavier, and the beating of her heart beat heavily on her eardrums, and the malicious voice of heaven and man lingered in her heart like a curse, almost suffocating her.

[How do you protect someone who can only kill. 】

【You are just an evil ghost who brings misfortune to those around you. 】

Tianren finally let go of Sakata Hikaru, and let her fall to the ground motionless, as if dead.

"However, if it is used as a tool for killing people, it is very qualified, hehe, hahahaha——"

"... What are tools?"

The rampant laughter of heaven and man stopped abruptly in Ah Guang's calm voice, Sakata Guang's eyes were dark red with mud and sand and blood stains all over his face, and there was no trace of madness left, "As long as it can protect them... ..."

Compared to the treasures she wants to protect, her life is worthless at all, just take it if you want it, but no matter how many times she will never give up——

Guard guard guard.

She, who has been losing all the time, has long been numb from the pain.

She is like this, even if it's just a little bit, she will hold on to any beautiful things that come into her life, how can she let go easily.

Pay any price.

The storm in Sakata Guang's eyes started to howl again, frantically tearing at her sanity, but the moment her finger moved, a gentle drink stopped her.

Hikaru Sakata raised his head blankly, and met Yoshida Matsuyo's eyes that embraced everything like the sky. The latter didn't have the usual smile, and looked at Hikaru Sakata's injury, frowning.

In the end, he just sighed.

"Ah Guang, do you still remember the agreement we made when we first met?"

Sakata Hikaru's tears gathered in her eyes again, and she choked with sobs and hummed.

"Since you are a samurai, you will not make an agreement that you cannot keep. Ah Guang, Yin Shi, you all have to remember."

[I assure you that no matter what happens, my life will be magnanimous and without regrets. 】

[Yinshi, everyone is counting on you. 】

The private school fire is still burning.

The embarrassed girl finally passed out completely.

******

"Is Xiaoguang still awake?"

The one who asked this question was naturally Gui Xiaotaro. He was usually frowning at this time, and he walked into the room softly with the boiled concoction, and secretly took a breath when he saw the bandages all over the girl's body.

...the injury was too serious.

Although he was knocked out early in the morning, this did not prevent him from hearing what happened that day from Takasugi's mouth, and deduced what she did after they all passed out.

Regarding Katsura Kotaro's question, Sakata Gintoki just hummed casually, then held the knife again in a daze, staring at Sakata Hikaru's sleeping face in a daze.

Katsura Kotaro was silent.

They were woken up by Sakata Gintoki that day. His expression was so terrifying that they couldn't even question him. They could only untie him in a hurry according to his instructions, and then went to find the surrounding villagers to give Sakata Hikaru healing.

Overwhelmed by Hikaru Sakata's terrible injury, they didn't even ask about the teacher, of course, because they could know what was going on without thinking too much.

What's more...Since that day, Sakata Gintoki has always had such an expression every day. He said very little, and his whole person seemed to be gloomy. How could they ask.

Shinsuke Takasugi also had an ugly expression every day, and often went out for a whole day without telling them what he did, of course, no one asked.It's not that Katsura Kotaro doesn't want to be depressed in such an environment, but there must be someone who cheers him up.

Sakata Gintoki's crimson eyes were as dark as water.

In the past few days, he seemed to be in a daze thinking about many things, but in fact, there was only one sentence in his mind that wandered infinitely——

Get stronger get stronger get stronger.

He must become very strong, only in this way can he protect Aguang and save the teacher.

He will never be as powerless and pitiful as he was that day.

Thinking of this, Sakata Gintoki, who had been staring at Sakata Hikaru, was suddenly taken aback, hurried over, and opened his eyes wide to make sure that the trembling of Sakata Hikaru's eyelashes just now was not his own illusion.

Then, under the watchful eyes of him and Katsura Kotaro who also came closer, Sakata Hikaru's eyelashes trembled again, and then, frowning as if in some pain, his eyes slowly opened.

Her eyes were a little confused, it was obvious that there was some fault in her memory, but her pupils shrank as she quickly cleared up her thoughts, remembering what happened that day, she wanted to struggle to sit up, only to feel the pain everywhere in her body .

Katsura Kotaro quickly supported Sakata Hikaru's shoulders to make her lie down, "Xiaoguang, you are seriously injured, you should take a rest first."

"...Mmm." Sakata Hikaru was obedient, lying down in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking.

At this time, Takasugi Shinsuke, who had been out all the time, suddenly pushed the door in, attracting the attention of the three people in the house.He saw Sakata Hikaru wake up first, and was taken aback for a moment, "Hikari, are you awake? How do you feel?"

Hikaru Sakata nodded slightly, "It's okay."

Assistant Gao Shanjin closed the door with his backhand and walked in with his hands, pursing his lips in a serious manner. He slowly looked around the other three people, "I have something to say," he paused, his voice undeniable Firmly, "I'm going to fight against the barbarians."

The sudden news made Sakata Gintoki and Katsura Kotaro a little overwhelmed, but Sakata Hikaru, who had just woken up, responded quickly after being stunned for a moment, "Add me."

She looked at the complicated gazes of the other three, although she was calm but equally irrefutable, "I'll go too."

The battlefield is her home.

The author has something to say: Well, let me emphasize one thing, my Aguang is Marysu, she is really Su, believe me [nods]
