Chapter 2: Sakura and Rin
"And ...... It seems to be the voice of Sakura! ”
Yae Ji was surprised, although he didn't understand what the sealed girl in the evil long box meant, but this did not prevent him from comparing the other party to his sister.
The girl who was sealed by the evil long box kept looking at him, and a chill arose in Yaeji's heart out of thin air. He clearly saw an ominous black aura rising from the side of the "Maiden Sakura" just now! It's just like the monsters recorded in the shrine!
"You...... You must be a youkai, right? Changing into Sakura's appearance lied to me! Don't want me to help you break the seal! ”
Yaeji, who is as delicate as a girl, let out cruel words, but in addition to those beautiful music in the evil long box, even the "girl Sakura" did not move at all.
The little face was slightly gloomy, and such an important matter really had to be handed over to my father. Yaeji's two small hands gripped the evil long box, as if holding a calamity, and ran down the mountain with a "whoosh".
"Don't try to trick me!"
"You ominous thing!"
"I'm going to put you under the spirit knife enshrined in the shrine and let you re-cleanse your soul!"
After a while, Sakura, the girl who had been transformed by a youkai in the evil long box, spoke again, and Yaeji's little face became more and more uneasy, and her speed became faster and faster.
"Bang! ——”
Like a little joke played by fate on him, the roots of a tree that appeared on the side of the road at some point suddenly tripped Yae Ji.
The evil long box is out of his hands!
Yaeji, who fell to the ground, widened her eyes, ignoring the dust on her face, and her little hand subconsciously reached forward, trying to hook the evil long box that flew out.
"Bang~Click~Click~Click~"
"Ugh!"
Yae Ji opened her mouth wide, ignoring the dust on her body, and hurriedly ran to the evil long box that was scattered, and all kinds of messy parts fell everywhere, even the girl Sakura, who had changed as a "youkai", disappeared.
"Suffered!" Yae Ji's face turned pale, and her teeth chattered slightly, "I...... I released the youkai? ”
A wisp of white smoke emerged from the evil box, and the black plate was printed with words that Yaeki didn't recognize.
Reason told him to leave this place of right and wrong quickly, but curiosity and an inexplicable sense of responsibility drove him to look forward.
"Bang! ——”
Yaeji's eyes were snow-white and unconscious.
......
"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts!"
Yae Ji sat up, clutching the back of his right hand, and the sudden explosion caught him off guard, and the parts that crumbled from the evil crate scratched the back of his hand.
"Huh! It doesn't seem to hurt anymore. ”
The blue and purple demonic pupils blinked, and Yae Ji, who was sitting on the ground, looked confused.
"Long box! Right, what about the long box? ”
The sunset pulls out, the sky is faintly dark, and Yae Ji is anxious in his heart. He only remembered that he accidentally broke the long box that sealed the monster, and then the donkey-eared monster posing as 'Sakura' disappeared inside, and then the seal box exploded, and he lost consciousness.
"Why is there no trace at all? Where's my long box? How can such a large long box be lost if you can't see it! Yae Ji rummaged around the area, and there was nothing related to the long box at all, which made him even more sure that the seal in the long box was a youkai!
He actually released a youkai! In addition to the monsters that attacked the outsiders in the back mountain, there were actually two monsters in the area near the village!
After searching for nothing, Yaeji, who had an anxious look on his face, quickly ran towards the village.
After a short run, running across the small wooden bridge, Yaeki looked at the dry river again, and found a young man slightly older than him sitting on the bank.
"Daisuke! It's so late and you don't come home yet! ”
There was no response, Yae Ji glanced at it suspiciously, and hurriedly ran towards the shrine, and two monsters appeared outside the village, which was a big deal for the entire village!
What happened today is bizarre enough, and it's nothing to help multiple daisuke.
"Ji."
"Xiao Ji!"
Yaeji greeted people at a high speed and accelerated his running speed over and over again.
"Dada~"
After climbing the stairs of the shrine, Yaeji, who has excellent physical strength, will inevitably be out of breath.
"Father! Father! ”
Yae Ji was half-squatting, supporting his knees with his palms, panting heavily.
A middle-aged man dressed in black with a vicissitudes of life walked out of the house and frowned slightly when he saw his embarrassed son.
"Panicked, what do you look like!"
"Father...... Father's ...... No...... Oh no! "Yaeji sucks in a lot of air like a bellows," ...... outside the village Two youkai have appeared outside the village! ”
......
After explaining everything to his father, Yae Ji was unexpectedly given a lecture.
When I walked out of the room, my little face was full of sorrow that did not match my age.
"Brother."
Yae Ji looked up and found that the cute little girl who was eight points similar to herself was looking at her worriedly.
The long pink hair hangs straight down the waist, and the slightly shorter pink hair on both sides of the little head is playfully curled out like dull hair, even so, there is no sense of messiness, but it adds a lot of cute elements to the girl.
The small shrine maiden costume is worn over her body, with a thick white hemp rope wrapped around the black ribbon around her waist and a large bow tied behind her back.
Eightfold Ji trance.
He seemed to see the youkai that changed into Sakura again, and the top of Sakura's head in front of him seemed to grow two long pink ears, such a fantasy...... It didn't look like a donkey's ear.
"Are you alright? Father is so strict! Does the injury on your hand hurt? ”
Sakura quickly finished analyzing the embarrassed Yae Ji in front of her, and her small hand holding a handkerchief gently stroked the dust around the wound.
"Gotta bandage it."
Yae Ji came back to his senses and hurriedly withdrew his hand, "It's okay, a little injury." ”
After saying that, he glanced at the house and asked in a low voice, "Is Rin asleep?" ”
"Sister, is my brother back?"
A weak voice came into his ears, Yae Ji and Yae Sakura looked at each other, Sakura blinked innocently, and said softly, "Father reprimanded you, Rin heard it." ”
Yae Ji was helpless, he didn't expect to come back so late, and he still didn't escape. The injured right hand subconsciously touched the small bag on his waist, which was empty, and it was not filled with cherry blossoms as he promised before leaving.
Facial muscle activity, Yae Ji rarely shows the majesty that belongs to his brother.
Walking indoors, the girl who was lying on the bunk was trying to straighten her back and look out the door.
"Rin!"
Yae Ji immediately broke the gong and hurriedly stepped forward, just wanted to reach out to help the girl, but when he thought that he was dirty, this hesitation, Yae Sakura rushed over and silently helped Rin.
Compared to him, Rin looks more like Yae Sakura, because he was born with poor bones, and he has been sick for a long time, so he has little time to be active outside. In her world, only her brother and sister, even her father, do not appear here often.
The year before last, we went to the hillside to see the cherry blossoms together, and it was the farthest gate Rin ever came out, and in Yaeji's memory, he had never seen Rin so happy.
Like Sakura, her pink hair is draped around her waist, but the hair that is spread out on both sides is tied with a headband for better care. The appearance is more immature than the cherry blossoms, and the skin that does not see the sun all day is extraordinarily fair. Those blue eyes are not as strange as Yaeji, but they have the magical power to make people calm their minds and purify their minds at a glance.
"Brother, let's go see the cherry blossoms together next year, okay? The kind of cherry blossoms that don't fall off when picked up in the bag are not beautiful at all. ”
Rin's lame means of comfort made Yaeji's nose sour.
"Okay, let's go see the cherry blossoms together next year!"
......
Yaeji, who hastily cleaned up her body and fell asleep, had a dream, a long, long dream.
In his dream, he lived in a strange world, with iron boxes driving on straight roads, tall buildings like long tofu blocks, and people each with a long box that could seal the monster......
In the dream, he held a spiritual sword enshrined in the shrine.
Hold the knife to slash sideways, sweep with a backhand, and slash after the waist rotates! Backhand teasing! Leverage the strength to rotate the waist, flashing in an instant!
This...... It seems that his mother taught him 'falling cherry blossom chopping' when he was alive.
The Falling Sakura Slash can also be called the Rapid Six-Stage Slash, and it is said that cultivating to a high level can produce incredible effects.
Merely...... The falling cherry blossom slash in his dream seems to be a little different from the usual?
