"Kakashi, do you want me to give up on my companions?”
In a team game, there were often reckless teammates who provoked monsters that they shouldn't provoke. However, no one would retreat because if they let their teammates face it alone, the outcome would only be death. Only by working hard together would there be a chance to salvage the situation. However, that was a game. Life and death were child's play. But now…
Forget it! Life was a dream. Moreover, there might be a chance to win!
"I definitely won't do that!”With that, he drew his sword and unsheathed Song of the Azure Sky!
Kakashi's eyes lit up. This was the first time he saw me take out a weapon.
"What a beautiful sword! However, a physical technique idiot was still a physical technique idiot!”Xue Tong mercilessly stabbed the Kunai in his hand towards me.
"Clang!" I took out my knight shield in time. Even though his left hand could not handle any strength, it was not a problem for such a large shield to block a small Kunai.
"Humph!" I sneered." Hammer of Sanction!”This was a Knight's skill that could stun the opponent.
As expected, Xue Tong's body relaxed and he stood there motionless.
Even a physical arts idiot would know what to do against an unconscious person. The sword pierced through his heart, and Xue Tong fell silently.
"Be careful!" Kakashi warned loudly.
"Watch the darts!" It wasn't a completely silent sneak attack.
However, these notifications were basically useless to me because I couldn't dodge them at all.
I finally remembered that I still had a dodge skill. The dart was already behind me.
"Dodge!" My figure started to sway left and right." Pu pu ", four of the six darts hit the target. It was a pretty good result.
I turned around and glared at Ku Lai. He didn't have any good intentions either. It was obvious that he hated me for killing Xue Tong.
"Stop them!" I teleported in front of Kuray almost instantaneously and stunned him at the same time. Another sword attack, clean and neat.
Kakashi looked at me worriedly, but he couldn't leave. It seemed that the enemies today were different from the ones that night. They were all Jounin. If they were to pester him, even Kakashi would have to be careful.
" There's only one left." I picked up Azure Sky and ran over.
"Kakashi, get out of the way!"
At this moment, Kakashi had an inexplicable trust in me and immediately dodged in front of me.
"Gouge!" Ertiao immediately stopped moving and began to draw circles with his head. I gritted my teeth and stabbed out with my sword.
"Three. I pulled out the azure sky. I couldn't hold on any longer. I supported myself with my sword and half-knelt.
"Youyou, are you okay?" Kakashi squatted down and asked.
"The body of a mage cannot withstand such a fast speed.”
Indeed, even though I could use melee skills when I was forced to use them, the feeling was as if my body didn't belong to me anymore. It was especially so for the Interception skill. It was too fast, and I couldn't feel my legs at all.
Kakashi nodded. The battle just now was really unimaginable. Was this the traveler's physical technique? He had killed three Jounin in an instant. It was too terrifying. Especially that charge, the naked eye could only see a shadow, which was comparable to Little Li without the weight. However, just as she said, she shouldn't be suitable to cultivate the skills of other occupations. It seemed that it was a huge burden on her body!
"Sit down. Let me take a look at your injuries." At this moment, Kakashi revealed his gentle side.
I removed my cloak and robe, leaving only my shirt on as I sat on the ground.
This was not good. It was so close, but it was already deeply embedded. Kakashi thought to himself as he took out medicine and bandages from his bag.
I held his hand that was holding the medicine and shook my head. What a joke. If he allowed him to treat the wound, he would not be able to wear a backless dress in the future if he left a scar!
"I want to treat it myself." Healing spells would not leave any scars.
" But you were sealed!?"
"You heard it too. This seal can be removed! If they can do it, so can we!"
"Let me try. Shura Eye!"
Kakashi opened his Shura Eye and observed for a while.
"No, I can't do it. Perhaps there will be a way when we return to the village."
"Yes, I am. Then he would wait until he returned to the village. It shouldn't be too long.”
Kakashi didn't reply. Instead, he pressed on my back." Yoyo!”
I nodded and hugged my knees tightly. I gritted my teeth and prepared to endure the upcoming test.
Kakashi moved very quickly. With a wave of his hand, four darts flew out. I was so tortured by the immense pain that I couldn't speak. I almost fainted.
Without stopping, Kakashi began to apply bandages. His movements were very practiced. Yes, he had been a ninja for 20 years. Getting injured and bleeding should be a common occurrence.
Kakashi was already being very careful, but my body was still trembling non-stop. His frown was even tighter than mine.
"I'm sorry. This is the first time I've been injured. My body isn't familiar with pain yet.”Even his voice was trembling. "I'm too useless." I lowered my head, not daring to let Kakashi see my twitching face.
"I should be the one apologizing." Kakashi's voice was extremely low.
After treating my wound, I put on my robe. Although it was damaged, its defense was still there. Forget about the cloak for now.
Standing on the battlefield that was in a mess, Kakashi felt extremely troubled. Youyou was injured and sealed by an unknown force. She needed to be sent back to Muye for treatment, but the mission…
"Let's continue to Short Book Street!" I know very well what Kakashi is thinking.
" What?!"
"No matter what your secret mission is, I'm still your employer. I'm going to Short Booklet Street now, so you have to accompany me.”
"Yoyo ~" Kakashi closed his eyes to calm himself down, then began to clean up the battlefield.
After confirming that the three enemies were completely dead, he took away one of the forehead protectors and found a few talismans on Xue Tong's body. He carefully put them away. These might be the key to unlocking my seal.
Kakashi walked in front of me and was about to speak, but I stopped him.
I spread my hands apart and a ray of light emitted from my body.”A handsome white horse appeared beneath me.
"Come on up, hehe."
Kakashi jumped behind me, careful not to touch my wounds.
There was no need to worry about driving the horse. The horse ran along the way. I only occasionally adjusted my direction.
After a long time, I couldn't take it anymore. I weakly lay on the horse's back and secretly held my breath. I gritted my teeth and endured the pain.
Kakashi looked at the woman in front of him. As the road was bumpy and blood continued to seep out of his back, he fell into a deep sense of self-blame.
"A person who can't protect his companions is the scum of the scum!”The earthy voice seemed to echo in his ears again, and Kakashi was once again lost.
" I'm very happy." My voice suddenly rang out.
"Oh?" Kakashi did not react in time. But I stopped talking.
"Ah, why?" Although he asked, he didn't answer. The woman was exhausted.
The sun was setting in the west, and Short Booklet Street was in sight.
After getting off his horse at the intersection, Kakashi hesitated again.
"Go, I'll wait for you here."
He did not know how this woman knew what he was thinking, but he was still grateful for her understanding. Although he wanted to send her to the hotel before carrying out the mission, from the attacks on the way, the source of the information seemed to be very dangerous. If he was late, he might not be able to get the information. Moreover, this secret place could not be known by outsiders. Even if he brought her along, she would only be a burden if a battle broke out.
"Go, don't worry." I whistled and a beautiful spotted leopard appeared beside me. "Spike will protect me." I leaned over and stroked the baby's soft fur.
What a good name! "Hi, stab!" Kakashi raised his hand in greeting. "Spiritual beast?"
"No, it's a Summoned Beast." However, the thorn displayed an extraordinary intelligence, and it let out a grunting sound as it rubbed against Kakashi's leg.
Kakashi still did not leave.
"Don't worry, we can escape even if we can't beat them!”As I said that, I disappeared right in front of Kakashi. Only Spike was still spinning on the spot.
Kakashi looked around nervously. He reached out to lift his forehead but felt that it was inappropriate.
"A Thief's Stealth skill. I should be able to see it with my Shurunyan, but normal ninjas definitely wouldn't be able to notice me.”
Kakashi finally left with a peace of mind. As he quickly disappeared in front of me, I couldn't help but sit on the ground, unable to move while hugging the baby. Both her body and mind were exhausted. Was this the life of a ninja?
At this moment, Kakashi's heart was not calm. He had always been calm and decisive, but he had hesitated many times today. This should not have happened. What was wrong with this woman?
The sky was getting dark. Kakashi returned to the intersection. Fortunately, the mission went smoothly. After receiving the information, he gave an appropriate warning and quickly returned. Spike was lying there quietly. Other than that, there was no one else.
"Youyou?"
"Yes." I revealed myself and canceled the summoning. I changed into a new cloak to cover the bloodstains and stepped onto the booklet street with Kakashi.
Although it was already night time, the liveliness was not reduced at all. There were chaotic noises everywhere, and one could also see the scene of cursing and fighting. At this moment, I really felt like a tourist.
Kakashi stopped in front of a pharmacy.
"Hmm?" I grabbed his hand and asked with my eyes.
"Even if you don't use medicine, you can buy some painkillers and tranquilizers to rest better.”
"A mage's training depends on their will. My spiritual domain will never allow drugs to invade!"”
What a joke. What if one of the nerves short-circuited and the monster lost its skill? This is the capital I need to settle down in this world.
There was nothing he could do, stubborn woman.
"Then let's eat something."
"No appetite!" Seriously, she really didn't want to eat.
Finally, they arrived at the inn. As they were afraid of being attacked again, the two of them squeezed into a room.
Kakashi pointed at the bed." You sleep. I'll keep watch."”
Sleep my ass! I stood still and cast a healing spell on myself. Because he had used instant or quick healing spells that night, the Great Heals were not sealed. They could still be used, but they could only replenish his HP. Soon, they flowed out of his wounds again. Although I wouldn't faint from losing too much blood, I had to stay awake and endure the pain. I was almost going crazy.
I tossed Kakashi a piece of bread and a bottle of water. I also took out a piece of bread and ate a few mouthfuls.
"Mmm, it tastes good. Eh? This bread? He could feel his stamina recovering.”That's right, stamina was also a form of vitality! Of course it could be recovered. I smiled but didn't say anything.
"You can still laugh? It seems that your body is fine." Kakashi said indifferently.
I glared at him. Indeed, other than the pain, there was nothing serious. However, this level of pain was probably nothing in the eyes of a ninja. I couldn't help but think of the scene in the anime when Kakaxi fell into the moon reading.
Kakashi was also recalling this experience.
After experiencing 72 hours of inhumane torture in Eritachi's illusion, if it wasn't for the support of the belief of protecting his companions, he would have been lost in the illusion. Even so, after coming out, he only spoke a few words before he fell asleep completely due to the relaxation of his mind until he was woken up by Tsunei.
He looked up at the woman opposite him. I wonder how long you can last?
One had to take on the responsibility of keeping watch at night, while the other could not sleep at night because of the pain. The night passed in the eyes of the two of them.
Regretfully waving goodbye to the booklet street, we embarked on the journey back to the village early.
It is said that the nervous system is the most sensitive in the early morning. I couldn't stand it anymore after a while on the horse. I felt like I was about to lose control. I used all my attention to endure the pain, causing the horse to run off the road several times.
" Hey, relax." Kakashi gently grabbed my arm. He watched as the cloak on the woman's back was soaked in blood and stuck to her body. This was really worrying!
Finally, it was noon.
"Stop and rest for a while." Kakashi patted the woman, but she did not answer.
He carefully turned her head. Oh no, is he having a fever? As expected, how could such a weak body withstand such torment if it refused to apply medicine? It would be strange if the wound did not become inflamed.
Kakashi's action of getting off his horse woke me up. I kept my golden horse, and my disobedient body fell from the sky. My hands and eyes were quick enough to catch it.
"Youyou? Is it okay? You're having a fever."
He barely stood still and touched his face. It was indeed very hot.
"Illness Dispelling Art!" She touched it again. It was not hot anymore. I stood up straight and laughed. "It doesn't matter anymore."
Although her eyes were still very bright, her voice was so tired. Although she should be tired, but…
Kakashi gently touched my wound with his hand.
He was mentally prepared, but his body retreated.
"It must still be inflamed! Your healing skills aren't that good!"
It couldn't be helped. The inflammation and fever were caused by the body's self-protection mechanism. The effect of the disease removal technique would definitely not be good. I smiled weakly and didn't say anything.
"Youyou!" Kakashi placed his hands on my shoulders. This action made me grit my teeth and face him.
"Didn't you say that we were companions? Since we're companions, can you stop pretending to be fine in front of me? If you feel sad, tell me!”Kakashi's gaze was very sincere, revealing a rare expression of true feelings.
" Companion, huh…Heh, as a companion, I haven't seen your face yet…"
Is that so? It seemed like a trap, but even so…
Kakashi took off his mask.
A handsome face that was beyond description…If one had to use a word to describe it, it would only be the word 'perfect'.
If he had to find any flaws, he could only say that this face was too beautiful, so much so that it lacked masculinity. Perhaps this was the reason why Kakashi always wore a mask.
But that's all. My eyes were still so clear. Of course, there was also unconcealable joy.
Kakashi smiled gently and put his mask back on.
And I was lost in this fleeting smile.
The corners of his lips curled up slightly, like a spring breeze sweeping across a pool of water, leaving ripples in the bottom of his heart. It was warm and genial, melting ice and snow.
In a trance, I said to myself: It's worth it! Even though he had suffered so much, he still managed to see Kakashi's smile…
