NOVEL NEXT 【37】Betrayal And Life-Saving Grace
In a dilapidated attic.
There was a damp, musty smell in the air.
Only the cool moonlight streaming in through the window and the flickering candlelight brought some light to this dark environment.
The candlelight faintly illuminated everything around it.
The corners of the eaves covered with cobwebs are faintly visible.
on the floor.
The old wooden boards have long lost their original color and become mottled.
Deep ravines and holes tell the traces of age.
in the center of the attic
Spider Ying's attention stayed outside the window.
Spider Sakura sat across from her.
"Sakura, I will pretend that I didn't hear this and stop saying it."
"Ying, I think you are not an idiot."
"...ah?"
"You're not like the others."
Sakura stopped at the last sentence.
In the attic.
There was a brief moment of silence.
"Let's run away together."
Sakura came up with this bold idea.
Look away from the window.
She smiled like a flower and looked at Ying tenderly with bright eyes: "Because it's you, I said this."
"In this hypocritical home, I only regard you as my real sister."
"Tomorrow, I will be summoned by that adult."
"So it will definitely go down the mountain!"
"We can escape then."
.............................
The next day.
The sun sets gradually.
Dark night enveloped the woods.
Ghosts cannot move under the sun.
Therefore, for ghosts, the evening is the morning of the day. If you want to meet Muzan, your departure time must be at this time.
Ying and Sakura's figures appeared deep in the woods.
They held hands and ran quickly.
However, the expressions of escape on their faces were completely different.
Sakura's face was full of anxiety, her eyes were wide open and her mouth was slightly open, as if she was afraid that she would step into hell if she was too late.
Ying, on the other hand, looked calm and relaxed.
At the foot of the mountain.
!
!
!
The two women's steps stopped.
He stood there with cold eyes, as if he had been waiting for a long time.
Ying suddenly let go of Sakura's hand.
Quickly walked to Tired's side.
Her eyes were contemptuous, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, revealing a proud smile.
The betrayed Sakura froze in place.
Her eyes changed from initial shock to regret.
How could she still not understand now.
The only girl he regarded as his sister and family had betrayed him! ! !
She gave up.
The fate that follows is determined.
Tiredness will not let itself go.
.............................
Outside the attic.
It's not yet dawn
Sakura was tied up in a big web made of spider silk.
His body was dripping with blood.
An expression of pain contorted her face.
Her clothes were torn by spider silk, revealing deep blood stains.
Tiredness did not take away her sanity.
He wanted her to know the price to pay for betrayal.
Let her die awake.
Because the sun is about to rise.
The ghosts of the spider family are hiding where the sun cannot find them.
Watching all this with cold eyes.
No sympathy at all!
The white fish belly appeared on the horizon.
The first rays of light in the morning dispersed the gloom in the woods.
It's also roasting on Spider Sakura's body.
"ah!!!"
Her body was smoking.
His skin was red from the sun, his eyes were closed tightly, and he was struggling in pain.
But just as her voice was losing more and more life.
A man wearing a black trench coat fell from the sky.
The man quickly put his windbreaker on the girl's body to help her block the scorching sun.
There was a flash of light.
[Storage] is activated, and you have an additional Nichirin Blades in your hand.
Easily cut through the tough spider silk.
Nichirin Blades were left by Gen Kujo for Kanae.
As for what Kanae will do without Nichirin Blades, Gen Kujo has already arranged an excuse for her
Due to this tragic battle, Nichirin Blades was destroyed.
It's fair to say that the Knife Forging Village can re-create one.
It’s not that Gen Kujo is greedy.
In fact, he didn't have any weapons at all.
I can only make do with this Nichirin Blades, which are colored at first sight and are used by girls.
When I have the opportunity in the future, I will cast one for myself.
at the moment.
This is not the time to think about this.
He hugged Spider Sakura and planned to leave.
"court death!"
A tired and cold voice came from the attic.
The other ghosts of the spider family were also standing in the shadows where Gen Kujo could see.
Gen Kujo made a face.
"Idiot, come here if you can!"
(╬￣俣)
The ghosts of the Spider family could only stare.
This human being is so mean.
Knowing that we can't pass when the sun comes out, he deliberately stimulates us.
"Vampire Art: Engraved Prison!"
Suddenly.
A dazzling light refracted over.
When Gen Kujo sees clearly.
Only to discover that it was a large spider web woven with transparent steel wire.
Go enough to trap a person.
In the original plot, this net was not used to trap people, but to dismember bodies.
