When Lope carried Sakura out of the house, she found Yanye, who was covered in blood, under a tree.
His face was pale as he panted. The veins all over his body stood up, and blood continuously dripped from his ears and nose. It seemed that the riot of the engraving worms when the Inkstone was attacked had brought him a lot of pain.
But even so, when he saw the purple-haired girl in Rope's arms, he still struggled and walked over.
"It's so good that you're alright…"
Tears flowed down his blind eyes. He wanted to reach out and touch Sakura's head, but he hesitated and retracted his hand halfway, worried that the blood on his body would dirty Sakura.
"To think that you can endure it, Yan Ye.”
Lope put Sakura down and walked to Yan Ye's side to support him.
"Thanks to your magic, I didn't die from my bone marrow being sucked dry by the bugs.”
"I'm ashamed. I was also worried that you wouldn't be able to hold on, so I made such a backup plan.”Rope said with a fleeting look in his eyes.
Yan Ye laughed bitterly and gently pressed down on his trembling palm.
"I have to persevere. If I can't persevere, it'll be trampling on my wishes. It doesn't matter even if I have to take my life for this.”
He looked at Sakura again, his terrifying eyes filled with gentleness. "Fortunately, Sakura has been rescued. This way, I'm willing to die.”
When Rope saw this scene, he could not help but sigh in his heart.
It was really rare to be able to live like this. He had almost become a replica of Wei Gongshilang. He lived purely for others, even willing to sacrifice his own life.
It was just that no one understood.
Whether it was Aoi Tosaka or Sakura, who was ravaged in the original novel, neither of them understood Yanye Mantong in the end. One treated him as the culprit who destroyed his family, while the other treated him as a sample of disobedience to Mantong.
Compared to the winner in life, Edemiya Shiro, the good guy was extremely miserable.
However, Yan Ye probably had his own reasons for this, such as his over-consciousness.
"That's why I said that the five matches are basically child's play…" Rope underestimated.
"Rope?"
"It's nothing."
Luo Pei straightened her expression and asked Jian Tong Yanye.
"What do you plan to do next?”
"Me?"
Jiantong Yanye struggled to reveal a sinister smile.
"There is one more thing that I must do. Only that man, Tokiomi, I cannot forgive! Trampling on Sunflower's happiness and pushing Sakura to hell, no matter what the reason was, he should die!”
His body emitted a strong murderous aura. Sakura hid behind Rope and held on to the corner of his clothes tightly.
"I support your idea…but you're not going to rush to the Tozaka family to find Shikigami, are you?”
Rope shook his head helplessly as he looked at his body that was shaking with every step he took.
"Revenge must be done according to the basic law. If you charge forward without any thoughts, you will be the one who dies in the end. Don't tell me you don't know how big the gap between you and Shi Chen is?”
To put it bluntly, Jian Tongye was now a fast-paced magician. He was half-dead. Other than the Heroic Spirit, which gave him a slight advantage, he had no other trump cards.
And it was when Gilgamesh was not serious.
"Is there any other way besides fighting to the death? My body doesn't allow me to think of a solution slowly.”Jiantong Yanye mocked himself.
"As long as I let Berserker kill Archer, it will be my victory. After losing his heroic spirit, he can only wait for his death.”
"Uncle…do you want to kill Father?”
At this moment, Sakura, who had been silent, spoke.
Her tone was very indifferent, as if the enemy that Lope and Jiantong Yanye were discussing was irrelevant.
"Ah, I want that bastard to
…"
Rope interrupted him and said seriously.
"Some things shouldn't be said in front of such a young girl. The 'bastard' you mentioned is her biological father after all. Don't you think it's too cruel for a young girl like you to hear such news?”
When Jiantong Yanye heard what Luo Pei said, he suddenly woke up. He opened his mouth but did not know what to say. He could only pull up his hood and hide in the darkness.
"…Sorry."
"Let's end the topic of Tokiomi. You just need to get Berserker to hold on to Archer. I'll think of a way to deal with the rest.”
At this time, Dilumudo's cleaning work was also completed. The dazzling light gathered around Rope and formed a human shape.
"Master, the Jiantong family has been cleared.”
"Yes." Lope looked at the bird in the night sky.
"Are you going to take Sakura back to Deep Mountain Town and hand her over to Mizuki Enzaka?”
"No…"
Jiantong Yanye only thought for a moment before answering immediately.
"If it's possible, I hope you can take care of her. It's still too dangerous for Sakura to follow a dying person like me. I trust your character, but I don't know if I'll cause you any trouble.”
"That won't happen. I can still afford a little girl.”
Lope looked at Sakura, who was staring at her, and accepted the request from Yanye.
"Then we'll part ways here. I'll bring her back to my magic workshop to settle her down. From now on, your battle strategy will revolve around Lancer's battle.”
"Understood." Jiantong Yanye nodded.
After he finished speaking, he walked towards the declining Jiantong ancestral house. It seemed that he wanted to use this ruin as his stronghold.
Rope also picked up Kirisaka and walked back to the hotel.
Due to the cold weather, Lope put his coat on Sakura, leaving him with only short sleeves to keep warm. Fortunately, after the strengthening, it was not worth paying attention to. At most, he would be stared at by a few night owls on the street.
Halfway through, Sakura, who was hiding in her clothes, suddenly spoke.
"Big brother, uncle…will he die?”
"Yes."
"Will Father die too?”
Rope hesitated for a moment, but still answered truthfully. "... Yes."
"What about big brother and Sakura?”
"..."
Rope stopped and stared at the little girl in his arms. That was until Sakura was a little scared by his stare and lowered her small head.
"I'm sorry, big brother. Sakura said the wrong thing..."
Seeing this scene, Rope revealed a clear smile.
He rubbed his face against the cute girl and said softly,
"No, Sakura and I will live well. No matter what happens, I will protect you."”
"Is that so…"
When Sakura heard this answer, she smiled for the first time. It was as warm as a flower bud in the cold winter, and it made people feel pity for her.
"Thank you."
[P.S. You don't want to give me flowers, but you don't want to die. This is making things difficult for Hashime-chan.] (Smiling RPG)
