Chapter 524

~10 min read 1,868 words

Sakura said with her head lowered. She was a person who was unilaterally attracted, simply put, it was unrequited love.

And Bai Ge already had partners like Elysia and Mobius. Her feelings were just an extra burden and trouble to him.

Sakura was a very polite and serious girl. Although she was a pink-haired fox spirit, she was more honest and self-abased than a certain pink fairy and a certain green snake.

She would not impose her feelings on Bai Ge.

And she would never tell the white-haired young man.

(Bai Ge is a great hero who wants to save everyone and save the world. He cannot be affected by extra feelings. A person like me is not qualified to be remembered in his heart.)

"Sister, what if Big Brother Bai also likes you?"

"Rin, what did you say?"

This sentence made Sakura stop instantly. She opened her eyes wide and looked at Rin in shock. At that moment just now, the young girl's heart seemed to be jumping out of her chest.

Bai Ge likes her?

Impossible! Absolutely impossible! At most he likes her fox ears, how could he like her person!

Sakura denied it forcefully in her heart, however, her already out-of-control heartbeat was proving her excited mood at the moment.

One in ten thousand, no, one in a billion probability, if Bai Ge really held such feelings for her, just thinking about it made Sakura feel like her brain was going to burn up.

"Rin, you, why do you say that?"

"Do you still need to ask? Of course, it's because Big Brother Bai is too good to you! Helping you save me, killing bad guys to avenge you, and now arranging a new home for us... I, Detective Rin, seriously suspect that Big Brother Bai has you in his heart! At least sister, you are definitely very special to Big Brother Bai!"

Rin said firmly. In fact, she didn't have much certainty in her heart, but she absolutely couldn't hesitate at this time, otherwise her good sister would definitely give up!

And she really didn't talk nonsense.

Rin; (Sister, I didn't lie!)

It is normal for Sakura, as the person involved, not to be able to think objectively, or rather, she had long been moved without the ability to think, but Rin, who was in the perspective of a bystander, saw it very clearly... Bai Ge was obviously too good to Sakura.

To be honest, Rin was very shocked!

(My God, Big Brother Bai is so good to my sister, did he really take a fancy to my sister? Didn't he say he only knew her for two days, and the photo thing was a misunderstanding?)

(Then where did this inexplicable favorability come from! Wait, the book says there are twenty thousand people in the world who will fall in love with you at first sight, did Big Brother Bai fall in love with my sister at first sight?)

(It seems that only this explanation makes sense. Oh my god, sister, how are you worthy! Our family's ancestral grave is smoking!)

Although Rin thought Sakura was the best sister in the world, with a good figure, good cooking, beautiful and elegant temperament, whoever could be liked by her was simply a blessing of eight lifetimes.

But it also depends on who the opposite is. If the object is Bai Ge, then Rin only feels that the situation is reversed. My dear sister, you are really a blessing of eight lifetimes!

"............"

Sakura was silent. She had never thought about the possibility that she was being treated specially, but now that she thought about it carefully, Bai Ge might indeed be too "partial" to her.

Could it be that he really likes her?

"!!!"o(*////////*)q

Sakura's face turned red instantly, red to the point where she couldn't use the sunset as an excuse to cover it up.

"Sister, hurry up, after all, Big Brother Bai has helped us so much, if we just leave like this without repaying anything, even I would feel too indebted."

"Rin, maybe you're right."

Sakura's hand subconsciously touched her waist, but the sword she carried with her was no longer there.

In her mind, she recalled Bai Ge's blessing to her earlier, hoping that she could live happily.

"I have to go back, go back to his side."

Sakura decided to fulfill her promise, but the way to live happily is not just to be an ordinary person. Maybe she can do it by staying by Bai Ge's side?

"Good! Sister, you finally figured it out!"

"Hmm, let's go."

Since she had made a decision, Sakura would no longer hesitate. She carried Rin on her back, picked up the luggage of the two with one hand each, and started to return the same way.

"Hold on tight, Rin."

"Eh? Wow ah ah ah ah ah ah ah—!"

With the speed worthy of the name Setsuna, Sakura exerted her true speed as a Fusion Warrior and ran with all her might, which was faster than a train or something.

Rin only felt that the surrounding scenery was dazzling. When she came back to her senses, she and Sakura had returned to the Fire Moth base. The girl's little face was pale and she covered her mouth with both hands.

(I'm going, sister, how did you become a superman? Speaking of which, we walked for two hours, and you came back in less than three minutes! You were so firm when you walked before, but you just didn't think of an excuse to come back, right! Uh woo woo woo—! Vomit to death...)

What made Rin even more speechless was that after returning to the base, Sakura ignored her directly, threw herself and the luggage aside, and went to find Bai Ge without looking back.

Rin: "She will definitely be a woman who wants her husband but not her sister in the future. Eh~ come on sister, try hard to give yourself away, you can do it! Hehe, I will also try hard to be a wingman and play support!"

... Meanwhile...

"Sakura, why are you back?"

Bai Ge, who heard the knock on the door, opened the door to see.

He found Sakura standing in front of his door, sweating profusely and panting heavily. The young girl's cheeks were flushed and her eyes were bright, as if she had fallen in love with him.

"... I want to stay by your side, please let me continue to stay here, Bai Ge... Captain." Sakura said after calming down the heartbeat that had accelerated from rushing back at full speed just now.

"Why, Sakura, you don't need to fight anymore. Isn't it good to be an ordinary person with Rin from now on?"

Bai Ge couldn't help but feel happy in his heart. Of course, he hoped Sakura could stay, but above that, he hoped she could get happiness, and it was happier to be an ordinary person than to be a Flame-Chaser.

He would deal with the Honkai, and Bai Ge could arrange a hibernation pod for her to go to the current civilization in the future. At that time, it would not be a problem to live as long as a Fusion Warrior's lifespan.

Speaking of which, with Sakura's appearance, when the time comes, take her to see Otto and give that bastard a big surprise, let him relive the beautiful memory of the saint being abducted by a pink fox spirit!

Anyway, no matter what.

Sakura no longer needed to fight.

The tragic ending of Rin being killed and turning into the Herrscher of Corruption, and then Sakura dying for it, Bai Ge would never let it happen.

However, Sakura came back by herself now.

This made Bai Ge couldn't help but think, is fate really so entangled? Is it destined that Sakura must become the Fire Moth Flame-Chaser who bears the name of 【Setsuna】?

"Living an ordinary life is something I have dreamed of, but the sins I have committed so far have not been redeemed. Now I am not qualified to live a peaceful life, so..."

"I will absolve you of your sins, Sakura!"

Bai Ge said without hesitation. At this moment, everyone could feel his special treatment for Sakura.

Sakura herself was no exception.

Immediately, her lips curled into a beautiful arc, and the blush on her cheeks became thicker. She was a little flattered.

"Please don't do this, I will redeem my sins in my own way, just let me stay by your side and let me fight for you."

Perhaps she was a fox spirit after all.

Sakura lied just now.

Redeeming sins or something was just an excuse. In order to cover up the confession she hadn't had the courage to say yet, she found an excuse to stay by Bai Ge's side.

Sakura didn't decide to embark on the path of the Flame-Chaser because of any established fate. She chose the future of becoming a Flame-Chaser with her own will in order to stay by Bai Ge's side.

"Please don't stop me, this is my will."

"... Eh~ alright."

Bai Ge sighed deeply. The will residing in Sakura's eyes was too bright and too hot. I'm afraid even the Herrscher of Sentience would find it difficult to distort it. Also... he seemed to have seen pink hearts, it should be an illusion.

"Since you insist on this, I won't say anything. From now on, Sakura, you come to my squad and listen to my orders."

"Yes, obey orders, Sakura has received orders!"

The young girl revealed a look of joy. Bai Ge shook his head with a wry smile, and then, as if thinking of something, he covered it with the table and took out a rectangular box from the imaginary space.

"Take this as your gift for joining the squad."

Open the lock of the box,

A deep blue ice sword came into view.

The whole body of the sword was blue, only the hilt was white. Even if it didn't inject Honkai energy, it was releasing a faint cold air to the surroundings, as if even time and space could be frozen.

"Trial-type Soul Steel weapon, Spirit Sword? Cold Prison Ice Heaven, this is the most suitable weapon for you, Sakura."

"Cold Prison Ice Heaven... thank you, from now on I will use it to fight for you... for humanity."

Holding the hilt with both hands and holding it vertically in front of her chest, Sakura closed her eyes and said as if taking an oath.

Bai Ge patted her shoulder with satisfaction, thinking that it was worthy of being Sakura's exclusive weapon in the original plot. Not to mention anything else, at least it couldn't be more matching with her in appearance.

"By the way, Sakura, I have one more request."

"Hmm? What is it?"

"Please, restore the ears on my head."

Sakura said, lowering her head slightly. This action was like inviting Bai Ge to put his hand on it.

"Why?"

Bai Ge was very surprised. You must know that in the setting, because of other people's eyes, Sakura was very self-abased about her ears, but now she asked to restore them herself.
