"If you want to get something, you must be prepared to sacrifice!』
When Onin appeared in Sasuke's line of sight, he returned to his room and glanced at the photos on the table.
It was a group photo of the seventh group. There was a unique white in it. She did not smile. Her eyes were indifferent and unfocused as she looked at the sky beside her. She was more mysterious than the others.
This girl was an unexpected existence in Sasuke's life.
When he saw her, he would think of the identity and unquestionable strength that this person once had. He suddenly realized how small he was and the feeling that he could never be compared to her made him unable to hold back his anger.
Now, the photo frame lay quietly on the table, as if it had made up its mind.
Walking past an open door, it was as if no one had ever lived in the room. Starry Night did not have much luggage and very few things that belonged to him, so he did not miss any place.
She had been staying in the hospital ever since that incident. A few days had passed, and it had been a long time since she stepped into this room…
Sasuke sized him up silently. He had not met Starry Night once since he returned from the mission in the Country of Tea. Before he left, he had clearly proven to that guy that he would become stronger. Now that he thought about it, he was really stupid!
[It seems that the rumors are true. The only survivor of the village's famous Uchiha clan is the one with the worst aptitude!]」
He punched the wall angrily. The current him was not qualified to say such words.
In her eyes, he might be nothing…
He had only realized it now. Staying in Muye would not allow him to make any progress in his abilities. He did not have time to play games with those people. He had to become stronger and kill that man to prove it.
She had heard about Orochimaru from the Onin, and she seemed to have some connection with him.
Sasuke had been brooding over the fact that Starry Night was once the White Reaper since a long time ago. Such a person had chosen to become a killer just to survive. Such a past could not be compared to the word " extermination."
She didn't feel the pain of losing her loved ones…
Because in her eyes, there were only two ways to survive, life and death.
The night of the full moon always reminded people of many past events, which were scars that could not be erased in Sasuke's memory.
On the way out of the village, he didn't even look at the places he had memories of. His mind was filled with thoughts, so he didn't notice Xiao Ying's sudden appearance.
[It's already so late. Why are you still loitering around in such a place?」Sasuke stopped and looked at her, but his attention was not on the person in front of him.
Sakura smiled bitterly and drooped her lips weakly."This road is the only way to leave the village."」
[Hurry up and go home.] He didn't want to waste any more time here, so he walked past her and ignored Xiao Ying's injured expression.
"Why..." A tear rolled down her face. She turned around and looked at the figure she had a crush on for a long time."Why are you unwilling to tell me anything?"」Although she knew that it was useless to say anything, she still could not escape the pain in her heart.
[Why are you always…unwilling to tell me anything?」He repeated the question in his heart.
He stopped in his tracks."Then tell me, why must I tell you?」
She stood there silently, her tears flowing non-stop.
Sasuke's back was facing her, so Sakura couldn't see her expression."I'm telling you, don't be a busybody."」
Sasuke, you've always hated me, haven't you?」She looked up and said,"Because among the four of us, I'm the only one who hasn't lost my family.」
Sakura had always been very clear that apart from herself, Sasuke, Naruto, and Starry Night were all orphans who had lost their parents since they were young. She would never be able to understand the loneliness.」
"But I really like the life I have with you. All these days, I really feel…very happy!」
"I know what happened in your clan.」Looking at the man's back, she gradually lowered her head."But revenge can't give anyone happiness, no matter who it is."」
"I survived because of revenge.」Sasuke's face darkened."This is a fact that cannot be changed.」
The image of that man appeared in his mind. It was the same full moon as today. He had ruthlessly killed his own people and used the moon reading on him. There were also all kinds of things that had happened that night...
He believed that the purpose of his survival was to avenge his people and rebuild the glory of the Uchiha clan with his hands.
" My stupid brother! If you want to kill me, then hate me, curse me, and then live an ugly life...'
" Constantly running away, just to live.』
When you have eyes like mine, come to me!』
She closed her eyes, but she still couldn't erase the familiar voice.
Sasuke didn't listen to Sakura's words about her feelings for him. He didn't have time to think about such things right now.
Therefore, he could only say,"I'm sorry."」
When Sakura got the answer, she couldn't help but sob,"Sasuke, do you already have someone you like?」Looking at the indifferent person in front of her, she asked,"Is that person…Starry Night?」
He was not unfamiliar with this name, but he was not familiar with it either. Besides, he had only called her that once.
He didn't expect that the conversation between the two would involve that guy. Sasuke felt strange. Why would Sakura have such thoughts?
Everything that had happened to Starry Night was too far away for him. This was also what made him most unwilling. He used to think that he was the strongest child in the village, and even Naruto, who had always wanted to duel with him, did not take him seriously.
Unexpectedly, the girl who suddenly appeared on the day of graduation from the ninja school was stronger than him.
"Do you want to know? How many people have I killed?』
She had also smiled in front of him before. He did not understand the meaning behind that smile, but he could feel a sense of enlightenment from it.
That guy…who was he?
He had asked himself again and again that this mysterious girl was the White Death God that made all the countries wary. He believed it! After personally witnessing the power of the red lotus, he already believed it.
However, the person in front of him was actually so far away. How could he accept this fact?
" In order to survive…even if I die, I have to die in my own hands.』
Perhaps that was the promise she had made to him…
From that moment, when the idea of standing on the same level as her appeared in his mind, Starry Night had already taken a certain place in Sasuke's heart.
However, he did not think that he had such feelings towards Starry Night.
"Don't use your stupid thoughts to make random conclusions.」
Her shoulders trembled slightly." Actually, I'm just guessing..." She clenched her hands in front of her chest. This was a habit she had when she was uneasy.
" But sometimes, Sasuke looks at Starry Night in a different way. I've never seen that kind of gaze before..."
"I'm really envious of someone as outstanding as her.」
Xiao Ying didn't know much, but she had heard rumors about Starry Night's past. It was a childhood that she would never be able to experience as an ordinary girl. When she was happily going to school with her friends or eating happily with her family, Starry Night lived such a miserable life.
Thinking of this, Xiao Ying had to face the truth. She would never be able to compare to her.
His arrogance had spoken out the delusion he had suppressed in his heart.
[If I can become like Starry Night, perhaps…] I can stay by Sasuke's side. She didn't have the time to say this.
Because Sasuke blocked her words that she had lost her judgment,"Impossible."」
"You can't become like her.」When he said this, he couldn't even figure out his own feelings.
He still only left behind a back view, followed by the sound of footsteps that gradually faded away.
[Don't go!]
Sakura's face was covered in tears. She did not notice that her hands were trembling uncontrollably." Please, don't go..."
I've already done my best. Why do you still have to leave?
Is it because…I don't have the right to make you stay?
At this moment, her heart had fallen to the bottom of the valley. Her thoughts were completely messed up.」
Now, Xiao Ying could no longer calm down. She only wanted to win back the person in front of her.
[If it was a starry night, would you have stayed?」
Sasuke wanted to say something, but Sakura spoke before him,"Stay here and don't leave."」
[I will definitely bring her here!] Seeing Xiao Ying running away anxiously, he knew very well where she was heading.
Sasuke did not stop her, nor did he have any intention of leaving.
