"Youyou (Teacher)!"
Hong supported my body, but her gaze stopped at the place where Gan Mu had disappeared.
The fire had struck Gan Mu at such a close distance, and he hadn't even let out a complete scream before he was burned to ashes.
Was this Youyou's true strength? Hong's heart was in turmoil, and the few Shinobu were also very shocked.
He checked my condition." It's alright. I'm not injured. I'm just too tired.”Hong sighed.
"Teacher hasn't rested for the past few days. He only told us to recover our strength as soon as possible.”Hatata and Ino said guiltily.
Actually, I was regretting my momentary retreat and didn't want to rely on Shinobu anymore. If I could have broken out of the illusion earlier, perhaps Xiao Ying wouldn't have…
"How are you guys? Can you still walk?"
"Yes, Chakra has already recovered more than half!”
"Ya, take Xiao Ying and let's go!”The group of seven returned to Muye, followed closely by Ci and Bi Qi who had yet to disperse.
A day later, in the morning.
The burnt bonfire made a rustling sound, and the smell of charcoal wafted everywhere, stimulating me to wake up. A warm and soft body was lying down beside him. He turned around and saw that it was a thorn. It was looking at me with its amber eyes. I smiled and patted its head.
Bi Qi jumped onto my body from the other side in dissatisfaction. He waved his hand in front of my eyes and stretched out his palm to let him stand up. He placed it on my shoulder and finally grabbed my hair to stabilize himself. Hehe, satisfied now?
"Teacher Youyou, you're awake?"
The night watchman lit a bonfire and began to boil water. Everyone stood up one after another.
I nodded and greeted everyone. I opened my character panel to check my current situation.
The chakra stick disappeared again.
I accepted this result with an almost expressionless face because I had already come to a realization.
The impact of the flames earlier seemed to have drained my body, which was why I couldn't hold on and fell. There must be something strange.
"Um, Gan Mu, how is it?”
"Gan Mu?" Red looked at me and said," I was hit by your spell and almost burned out in an instant.”
"Burn ~ out?" I couldn't help but frown.
"Yes, there's nothing left.”Looking at herself, she also felt very puzzled, Hong thought.
I pondered. If it was a flame attack, it shouldn't be so powerful. Could it be related to Chakra's disappearance? In other words, if the chakra was used in conjunction with magic, it would produce an unexpected power?
Even though he wanted to experiment immediately, given the current situation…regardless of what he was considering, he had to re-cultivate the Chakra in the shortest time possible.
After resting, they continued on their journey.
Originally, the concubine in the mansion was the former concubine of the great name. Because she was dissatisfied with the great name's old age and weak body, she wanted to get rid of him so that she could smoothly find a new lover. Who knew that she was destroyed by us. She became angry out of humiliation and ordered four subordinates to chase after her. After Daimyo received the news, he immediately sent a letter to Muye, which was why Red and the other two came to rescue him.
Although we didn't get to see the battle, it's better than our arduous long journey. The addition of new forces and the elimination of evil forces are really exciting.
Shifting Teeth placed Sakura on the horse. This time, there was no speed hindrance and they finally made it back to Muye before dark.
I rushed straight to Muye Hospital without stopping. After settling down Xiao Ying, Hong suggested that we do a complete physical examination for the few of us and urged Er Xiao to go quickly, but I didn't move. He should deal with the disappearance of chakras himself.
She stood by Xiao Ying's bed uneasily. The hospital was already giving her nutrient fluids. If this continued, she would run out of energy.
The door opened and Tsunei walked in.
I immediately stood up." Master Tsunete, I'm very sorry. Sakura…"
"Got it. You're under an illusion, right? This is something that is inevitable in battle. You don't have to blame yourself.”
Okami looked at Sakura carefully and sighed." Youyou, don't stay here anymore. You're tired too. Go back and rest."”
"Yes, I'll leave in a while.”
At night, the moonlight was like water. A black shadow flew in from the window and landed soundlessly. However, the disturbed moonlight startled me. I looked up and saw that it was Kakashi.
"I heard about it when I came back from the mission, so I came to take a look. Why are you still here?”
Looking at the silhouette of his side profile under the moonlight, the last words that Genin had told her during the exam flashed through her mind." Protect everyone in this village." These words were still ringing in her ears when she suddenly felt extremely wronged.
" I'm sorry, I... I couldn't do it. I didn't protect Xiao Ying well... Woo..."
Kakashi stood quietly by the bed and looked at Xiao Ying, a hint of pity in his eyes." No, this isn't your fault. Haven't you realized that Xiao Ying is very happy now? Very happy…"
Was that so? Looking carefully through the tears, Xiao Ying's brows were so comfortable. There was a faint smile at the corner of her lips. Could it be…
" This illusion is the complete opposite of my 'Nairo Sight Art'. It will make people fall into the supreme dream in their hearts. Everything that they once hoped for will happen. No one will be willing to wake up from such a beautiful dream.”
Is this the so-called 'Bliss Gospel'?
The only thing that could wake Sakura up was probably…a better reality.
"Youyou, go back."
"Yes."
The two left Muye Hospital together.
The next day, Fire Shadow Manor.
" Then, in preparation for the drill before graduation, everyone present will be responsible for leading the team-"
" No, Master Tsunei, I can't…" He interrupted Tsunei helplessly.
"Why? Youyou, you…huh?" Okami stopped and came to my side to take a closer look.
"You again?"
He nodded. "Yes, there was an accident, but it's okay. I'll take care of it.”
"Alright, I'll find another Genin to replace Youyou's group. Iruka, start gathering the students."
"Yes, sir!" Before he left, he looked at me worriedly, and I gave him a reassuring smile.
"Youyou, you can leave first. You don't have to worry about the affairs of the village anymore.”
"Yes."
He left the room dejectedly. He had to immediately start his Chakra cultivation!
Other than going to the herb garden to empty the remaining crystal water, he spent the rest of his time practicing hard. Every day, he would take some time to visit Sakura at Muye Hospital, but in the end, there was no improvement.
Once he felt the chakra, it filled his entire body almost instantly.
How could this be…could it be that the chakras had never disappeared in the first place, and only existed in different forms? Then, the increase in the power of the fire blast was also due to the effect of mixing two different types of energy?
Anyway, let's test it out first.
However, no matter what, it was impossible for him to release the chakra on his body at the same time as he cast the spell.
Thinking back to that moment of anger, I seemed to understand something. However, the faint smile on Xiao Ying's lips made me unable to hate her anymore.
He stood in front of Tsunei again.
"Master Tsunete, from today onwards, I can accept missions again. I have completely recovered.”
"Ah, that's great! I was just about to ask you if you want to participate in the Chuunin exam this time?”
"No matter what decision I make, it's useless, right? Now, I'm a subordinate of the seventh class…"
"Even so, I want to hear your opinion first.”
"If Kakashi allows it, I will participate without hesitation!”
If he was only a Genin, he would definitely be in an awkward position in the mission, especially when he was with these kids who were already Chuunin...
"Ah, I understand. Go and see Xiao Ying. She seems to have woken up.”
"What? Was that so? Then I'll take my leave!"
He hurriedly bowed and rushed to Muye Hospital. Suddenly, he seemed to have realized something. Using energy while conducting a chakra partial detonation, wasn't this also a mixture of two types of energy? In other words, if he wanted to do it, he had to first use his own body to feel the existence of magic power!
At this moment, Xiao Ying was lying on the hospital bed in a daze. Her eyes were empty as she looked at the ceiling, and two lines of tears slowly flowed down.
No one knew what kind of determination she had made and how much effort she had put in to get rid of the illusion.
Scenes replayed in her mind. The warm gaze she had been looking forward to for a long time. Under the warm sun, the fragrant grass, the blooming mountain flowers, the scene that was as fascinating as heaven, and the unbelievable scene that was like a dream... However, the warmth from her palm, the slightly itchy breathing in her ears, and the rhythm of each other's heartbeats told her that this was not a dream. This was reality.
She was intoxicated. What more could she ask for in this life?
However, even if it was a dream, did it not take much effort to get it? Not to mention reality.
What did I do? What did I do for him? She asked herself.
No! Where was his dream, his ambition, his ambition?
Am I going to tie him down and myself down like this?
Far away from the sight of your lover, far away--until the kite breaks its line.
Return to the painful reality, return to the reality where I need to fight with both hands. I will face it, I will find my dream, I will find heaven! Wait for me-
When I arrived, Sakura had already gotten up, put on her ninja suit, and was wearing a forehead protector.
"Xiao Ying! You're finally willing to wake up. That's great!”He didn't even take the stairs and appeared directly from the window.
"I'm sorry, Teacher Youyou. I've made you worry!”The cat's eyes shone with a different kind of brilliance.
"Hehe, let's not talk about this. You-"
"Xiao Ying!" "Sister Ying!" Ino and Aoi also came to see Sakura.
After putting down the gifts and flowers, Ino pulled Sakura and asked her about the situation. Aoi complained to me,"
"Teacher Youyou, Teacher Iruka didn't even let me take the graduation exam this time. He insisted that I wait another year.”
"Hehe, that's because he wants to give you a chance to attend my class!”I teased. Xiao Ying's awakening made me feel more relaxed.
"Yeah, I saw this year's exam questions. The question about inertia was so difficult. I've never heard of it before.”
"'Habitual'? That kind of question was not something that students of their level could answer!”Xiao Ying protested.
"So, I'm going to resume teaching next semester!”
"I'll definitely listen to it!" Sunflower said.
For a moment, the entire room was filled with laughter.
"Yo! Sakura, Aoi, Ino, everyone seems to be in good spirits!”Kakashi appeared on the windowsill.
"Teacher Kakashi!" The three little ones said in unison.
Why was Kakashi always so popular? I'm starting to get jealous.
"Youyou, the mission! Follow me!"
"Ah?" Was this Tsunei still going to let people live…
"I'll go too!" Xiao Ying stood up firmly.
"No!" What a tacit understanding! Kakashi and I exchanged a glance and smiled. At the same time, he waved at Xiao Ying and jumped out of the window.
