In other words, the quarrel with Sakura is just an illusion, isn't it?
Delta pursed her lips, but she hesitated in her heart, looked at Yae Sakura with a calm expression, and hesitated for a while. ,
In the end, she just opened her mouth and didn't really say anything.
The atmosphere between the three was slightly silent.
After hearing Rin's story, Karen was supposed to be the first one to fight the injustice, but Delta's abnormal situation made her hold her words in her heart.
Nothing is as important as the box, and everything will be discussed after the box stabilizes.
And after Delta returned to normal, Karen didn't dare to mention Rin again in order to avoid being exploited by the box again.
However, she was also a little resentful for holding back like this.
"Thank you for your hospitality. I'm going back to the room first. Call me if you need anything." Karen whispered to Yae Sakura.
"Yeah." Sakura nodded softly.
When Kallen returned, Delta shook his head, walked to Sakura, hesitated, "Are we... considered friends? Although it's only been two days."
Yae Sakura was taken aback.
friend?
Since Rin's death, this is really a very distant vocabulary for me.
When was the last time I cared about others from the bottom of my heart?
Sakura tilted her head slightly.
forget.
but......
"Calculate."
"I don't know why, but I think we get along very well, so we should be regarded as friends."
......
After getting the answer, Delta happily wagged her tail and went back to the house. Yae Sakura looked at Delta's back until she completely disappeared into the shrine house.
a long time.
"It's useless, nothing will change..."
"Don't waste your time on me."
"This is my fate."
----
As soon as Delta was back in her room, Karen knocked on the door.
As soon as she opened the door, she met Kallen's serious face.
"what happened?"
"I want to help her." Karen said seriously, "I can feel that Sakura's heart is in an almost desperate pain."
"I want to help her, Delta, let's go together!"
Chapter 33 Another Divine Sacrifice
Although she has decided to investigate the matter of sister Yae Sakura, but this is her hometown after all, so she needs to be cautious.
Karen and Delta decided to only go out one person at a time, and the remaining one stayed in the Yae Shrine to take care of the box. This thing has a wide range of influence. If it is not suppressed all the time, maybe that ordinary villager will be attracted. , causing disaster.
With the passage of time, the relationship between the two and Yae Sakura has gradually improved. Delta and Karen tacitly did not take this opportunity to mention anything, but put the breakthrough point on the villagers.
Especially children and teenagers...adults and old people are very guarded and alienated from themselves and others. Although they are smiling when they are talking, Delta can still see it.
......
On a street in Yae Village, Delta brought a lollipop from Li Kai and was teasing the children who had gathered because of the candy.
"Whoever told me about what happened in the Yae Shrine four years ago, I will give her another candy."
Seeing that the adults were dealing with their own affairs, Delta whispered to the children.
"Four years ago?" The children who were staring at the candy raised their heads and began to recall.
"It's Yae Sakura, Rin, the sister of Miko, why did she die? I heard it was because of the god sacrifice..." Delta said heavily.
As soon as this was said, the older children who had already become sensible dodged silently.
"Do you know?" Delta said, looking at a big fat boy, while shaking the lollipop in his hand, "Tell me, and I'll give it to you?"
"Grandma said, this is an adult's business... Don't worry about children." The fat boy shook his head with dodge eyes, "I don't know much."
"Just say what you want." Delta asked patiently.
"Sister Delta, Sister Rin was taken away by adults." One of the little sisters suddenly said with a sore nose.
"Before...my relationship with Sister Rin was good...she was always sick, but she was very kind to us!"
"Hey! Don't say that, you will be beaten when you go back!" The children worriedly told her to shut up.
Delta stuffed the lollipop to the little sister, "If you don't tell me, I won't tell you, adults won't know."
"Tell me, who were the ones who offered to make Rin a sacrifice?"
Hearing this, the little sister said with some fear, "I... my grandma."
Delta's eyelids twitched.
Not knowing what to say, he took a deep breath, let the children go away, and stood up on their own.
After asking the children, she took the opportunity to listen to the young people in their 20s to [-]s, because this age group has already become more thoughtful, and it is not easy for Delta to ask directly, so she inquired casually. A little about the gods and related gods.
However, to her surprise, the young people who were so eloquent when talking about God all fell silent when they heard the words of God.
It seems that [God], like [Death], is an extremely taboo word for them, full of fear and avoidance.
"Among the sacrifices of the god sacrifice...are there people you are familiar with?"
In order to test their reaction, Delta took the risk of being isolated by the whole village and became an unreasonable straight girl of steel.
Anyway, she always has to go back, and she won't stay here for long.
"You're here to find fault!"
"...Go away!"
----
Delta was hated, and now even the young man looked at him less friendly.
She got closer to the adult circle and chatted for a while, but found that these three-to-40-year-old uncles were more tactful than expected, and... alienated.
Delta glanced at an individual, very prestigious old man, but didn't go over to say hello.
After observing for a period of time, she already has a certain degree of understanding of this village named Yae Village.
Here, a few elderly people hold top-level prestige, and below that, a large number of middle-aged people hold actual power and hold most of the assets in the family.
Children under the age of 12 grow up step by step, while groups between the ages of 12 and 25 have become the main victims of the sacred sacrifice.
Those who used to be more friendly to me were the children and teenagers, and those who were more guarded and alienated were the middle-aged and elderly people. A faint sense of separation is troubling Delta.
Of course, those who alienate themselves now may also include some young people who have been offended by themselves. In short, behind the seemingly gentle smiles and curiosity in this village, there is a gap like looking at flowers in a fog.
Delta scratched her hair in annoyance.
And at this moment, there was a commotion in the square for some reason, which attracted her attention, and she squeezed past the crowd.
"This is..." Delta frowned and moved his nose.
She smelled the smell of collapse.
A straw mat was spread on the square, and the people on the mat were covered with a layer of white cloth. The pale soles of feet and calves were covered with blood and broken bones, and lavender crystals and patterns spread inadvertently.
"How come there are Honkai Beasts here?" Delta was puzzled, since there was nothing when they first arrived.
Could it be the... box?
"Why did that monster suddenly appear!"
"This must be God's punishment for us..."
Elderly villagers whispered mournfully, and Delta's blood pressure rose.
Why don't you solve the problem when you have a problem, but blame everything on the gods?
What makes sense!
At this moment, Delta suddenly discovered that Yae Sakura was also nearby, and was surrounded by those respected old people. The old people sighed, while the girl wiped the blade of the Spiritual Knife, remaining silent.
"Sakura, what's going on?"
Delta asked puzzled, "Is there some difficult monster around?"
But don't really think it's because of the box... Otherwise, she and Karen will run across the mainland again.
"Yes, some strange monsters." Yae Sakura sighed and said, "Although I killed it, the villagers still couldn't save it."
Delta glanced at the spirit knife that could fluctuate significantly.
It really is... Honkai Beast.
"As long as God's wrath is appeased, our village can usher in peace again..."
"We have to perform the ceremony again."
----
The voices of the villagers gradually became louder, disturbing Delta, and subconsciously glanced at Yae Sakura.
Sakura held the knife and looked at it expressionlessly.
Where no one else could see, the hand without the knife retracted into the sleeve and squeezed slightly.
Chapter 34 The Giant Fox
At the same time, Karen in the Yae Shrine also saw the note left by Sakura.
[There are rice balls on the table, don't forget to wash your hands before eating, I went out beforehand——Sakura. 】
ahh-
"This guy is so busy every day."
Karen held the rice cooker about the size of her head in both hands, took a bite of the corner, and talked while chewing.
The more I ate it, the more delicious it was, and it was much more delicious than the things I ate in Tianming.
God knows why I was able to eat such unpalatable things before...Looking up at the starry sky or something, I didn't feel it until I ate the food made by Sakura, but after eating it for a while, I suddenly felt that those things in Europe were so scary.
"It's broken, the taste has been spoiled... What should I eat when I go back later?"
Karen said so, then chewed...chewed more and more slowly, pursed her lips, and looked at the rice ball.
go back?
...Maybe I can't go back.
"Well, forget it, let's eat first!"
Karen forced herself to feel happy, took a bite of the rice ball, and enjoyed it beautifully.
"Big sister, big sister!"
A little girl ran over in a panic from the stairs. When she saw Karen, she threw herself on Karen with all her strength and cried out loud.
"Please! Help my sister!"
"Huh? What's the matter?" Karen was taken aback by the little girl's pounce.
"My sister has been arrested! She is going to be a sacrifice to God!" As she spoke, the little girl's anxious eyes filled with tears, "Everyone says you are very powerful, please save her Bar!"
Sacrifice?
Karen, who heard Yae Sakura's story about what happened, immediately realized the seriousness, touched the little girl's head, and said seriously in a comforting expression, "Don't be afraid, I will definitely protect you, I promise!"
