The experienced Yae Sakura instantly judged that the white-haired girl had been flowing downstream from the upper reaches of the stream, stumbling and falling along the way, leaving her body covered in wounds.

Yae Sakura focused her gaze on the white-haired girl's lower abdomen, where the blood seeping out was darker in color and the amount of bleeding was much greater than in other parts of her body.

Yae Sakura is unaware of Kenshin's location.

Such injuries would terrify an ordinary person at a glance, but Yae Sakura was unfazed. As a wicked executioner, such a scene did not frighten her.

Yae Sakura stepped forward and carried the girl in her arms, then placed her delicate nose on the tip of the girl's nose and noticed a faint breath.

live?

This was somewhat perplexing to her. If a normal person were to drift downstream in a stream while unconscious, the numerous and scattered rocks along the way would be enough to cause them to suffer head injuries and bleed profusely, let alone the amount of blood loss.

Yae Sakura held a ritual, knowing exactly how much blood a person would lose before fainting and dying.

The white-haired girl should have died from respiratory failure due to the amount of bleeding.

Can't save?

She was a little confused. Given the village's tendency to discriminate against outsiders, she knew that if she rashly brought a stranger of unknown origin back to the village, she would definitely face criticism.

So, should we just let that famous girl fend for herself?

After a brief hesitation, Yae Sakura slowly put down the white-haired girl. As the shrine maiden of Yae Village, she had to be responsible for the village first.

Before Rin died, I wanted to become an excellent priestess; I cannot let Rin down.

But when Yae Sakura turned around, she heard the white-haired girl behind her muttering as if in a dream.

"You are not allowed... to live or die."

"live"

""

The struggles of the white-haired girl in the anime cause Yae Sakura to waver.

But that doesn’t change the fact that she refused to help someone in distress; she had no reason to save a stranger.

Out of respect for the white-haired girl's obsession with living, Yae Sakura could only help stop the bleeding at most.

"Rip!" Yae Sakura ripped the clothes off forcefully.

Yae Sakura straightened the white-haired girl and then wrapped her arm around her lower abdomen to stop the bleeding.

Yae Sakura then used her dry clothes to wrap the other injured areas.

That might not be of much use, but Yae Sakura can do the ultimate.

Forehead, arms, legs, and ankles

and many more?

ankle!

Yae Sakura's blue eyes suddenly contracted into crescent moons. She was extremely familiar with this injury; several years ago at the altar, Rin had also had her Achilles tendons severed by Yae Sakura's biological father in the same way.

The white-haired girl's Achilles tendon appeared to have been severely injured due to various collisions and compressions while she was downstream.

She lost the ability to stand, just like Rin.

Yae Sakura stopped bandaging her hands, and a few seconds later she picked up the white-haired girl again and ran towards the Yae Shrine.

That's how people are.

No matter what choices one makes in life, there will always be regrets. In order to make up for these regrets, people often do things in the present and future that are not in their best interest.

This is an attempt to deceive and fulfill that regret.

"Why are the injuries so serious?!" Yae Sakura only realized after stripping the white-haired girl naked that her injuries were far more serious than she had imagined.

No part of his body was unharmed; the severity of his injuries was such that even one-tenth of them would be enough to kill an ordinary person instantly.

How lucky to be alive!

No, it can't be described as luck; it has to be...

Especially in the lower abdomen, the light was bad before and I could only see the bleeding. Now that I've taken off my clothes, I realize that it's not just bleeding, it's like there's been an explosion inside my body, with a small hole blown out of my stomach.

It doesn't matter if there's a severe fracture in the left leg or not, since the Achilles tendon is gone and whether the bone is fractured or not, you'll never be able to walk again.

Yae Sakura began to question the meaning of life, she didn't know how many times she had thought about it.

But she had to ask again and again: "They're not dead?"

Yae Sakura hurriedly ran back and forth at the shrine, searching for medical supplies, including bandages imported from Europe.

The lights in the Yae Sakura room of the shrine were bright and never went out all night.

Meanwhile, upstream, Karen slowly opened her eyes. She felt no pain at all. Even the dislocated bones from her fall had been corrected. Was she dead?

"Heaven or hell there?" Karen looked around in surprise. "There?"

Uncertain and unrealistic, he pinched his cheek hard, crying, "Ouch! Ouch! I'm not dead? Sigh!"

Karen snapped out of her daze and found herself enveloped in an inconspicuous golden sphere of light, the glow of which emanated from an irregularly shaped object resembling a heart in front of her.

"Are you angry? You should have let me die so you could have saved more people."

Karen waited for Su Xin's response, but there was still no reply after a long time.

Karen felt unwell without receiving a response. For some reason, she felt a tightness in her chest, as if she had lost something precious.

“A?” Karen reached out to touch the heart-like object.

The moment I touched it, a familiar voice rang in my ears—

Chapter 60 Your Body is So Beautiful (Cunning)

I'm sorry, I'll say goodbye to you in this way.

Perhaps neither of us was frank enough, or perhaps I was too arrogant and failed to communicate with you in time to build a bridge of understanding, which led to the current situation.

Karen, you need to remember that self-sacrifice is never the optimal solution.

Others are a mirror; the deeper the relationship, the more one realizes one's own weakness and repulsiveness.

Without falling into self-loathing, there is no growth, or anything that comes after that.

After all, compared to standing up and resisting, sometimes bowing your head and enduring is even more difficult.

Whether it's pain or joy, after you've had enough of escaping, you have to take it all on. It's a cycle of approaching and distancing yourself time and time again.

Then we need to find a distance that allows neither of us to get hurt as well. Even after we grow up, we still need to explore this challenge.

Please don't be upset. You're not the only one at fault. The tragedy isn't over yet; hope is on.

When you get back, listen to Otto carefully; he actually cares about you.

Perhaps when you wake up and go back, you will find that everything in the world has changed. You will see some unacceptable scenes, encounter some intolerable things, and your long-held beliefs will waver.

The Mandate of Heaven, through long-term capital accumulation, became the strongest power in Europe. Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.

If the expeditionary force returned defeated, it would not only not be welcomed with open arms, but would be despised by everyone. Every war, whether won or lost, leaves a scar, but a defeated war leaves a larger scar.

The war brought about a sharp decline in population, labor shortages, and financial strain, among other problems that needed to be addressed, which would inevitably exacerbate internal corruption and contradictions within the Mandate of Heaven.

Otto is a reliable friend, and it's a good choice to seek his advice first when encountering problems.

Yes, please be extra careful when I'm not around. During battles, don't keep looking behind you or at your teammates; focus on the enemy. Don't fall asleep halfway through your shower. Remember to blow out the candles before going to bed. Kenshin, you've reached the final Void Realm; you don't need me to temper you anymore, but it's important to make sure you're covered with both blankets. You usually kick one off when you sleep.

When you feel lost, calmly feel the flawless Taixu sword heart; it is the most precious gift I can leave you.

Finally, I hope that we can both reach our ideal destination.

—A friend I've known since childhood: Su Xin.

As soon as he finished speaking, the sword heart, which was enveloped in light, fell to the ground in an instant, shattering into countless fragments like fragile glass.

"Su...Xin," Karen murmured the name repeatedly.

Kneeling on the ground, picking up the fragments one by one, was pointless; even if the shattered sword heart were pieced together, it could never be restored to its original state.

Su Xin's voice remained completely silent throughout, without mentioning the matter at all.

Whereabouts, life or death, price

He kept reminding Karen so that she could better realize her dreams.

But the more they try to hide it, the more they pique people's curiosity.

Why not where? Why not the same? Why not when we meet again someday?

Everything seemed to be announcing to Karen that he was gone forever.

From now on, no one will take over her body when she is in danger, and will be able to easily resolve all difficulties, allowing Karen to move forward without restraint.

He: You've grown up.

It stopped yesterday.

Later on the road, I no longer accompanied you.

He: I've always been here.

Standing in the future.

Walking became increasingly blurry.

Yae Shrine: A busy night left Yae Sakura covered in sweat.

They carefully cleaned Su Xin's body, then disinfected and bandaged it; every wound was horrifying.

Two hours later, Su Xin gradually regained consciousness. In addition to the intense pain in various parts of her body, she also experienced a strange sensation of being pushed in her back.

"Ouch, it hurts! It feels cool, huh?!"

Opening her blurry eyes, Su Xin found herself completely naked, able to clearly feel the warm breeze blowing against her upper and lower body.

A hand was touching my body, and my sensitive body suddenly shuddered.

Startled by Yae Sakura, she tried her best to remain polite and smiled, "Awake? I'm bandaging you. Please lie down first, or the wound will tear."

As expected, Su Xin felt a tearing pain as her flesh was ripped apart, causing her to cry out in agony.

"Thank you, thank you...no, I'm not wearing any clothes at all."

"Yes, I've seen it. It's beautiful." Yae Sakura smiled gently, her voice sweet, which made Su Xin blush instantly.

Su Xin kept comforting herself in her heart.

It's alright, it's alright. She doesn't know who I am, and no one will know, definitely!

No one else will ever know about this again!

Although she felt no comfort, Su Xin shyly buried her head in the pillow, like a frightened little rabbit, revealing her cute, bare body.

This is a classic case of burying one's head in the sand.

It doesn't matter if someone's body is naked or not. If you use someone else's body and expose yourself to them completely naked, you will inevitably feel ashamed and embarrassed.

Unexpectedly, the scene in the original work where Kallen is seen naked by a girl whimpering actually happens on my body. I was picked up by Yae Sakura and had my naked body seen. How embarrassing!

Seeing Su Xin's reaction, Yae Sakura smiled happily, her reaction as adorable as someone with childlike innocence.

Compared to the villagers who were obsessed with money and haggled over every penny, and whose fathers were superstitious and believed in fox spirits, Su Xin was a girl with a vibrant personality.

Every smile and frown seemed to radiate a dazzling light, shining into Yae Sakura's dark heart.

“Yes, my name is Yae Sakura. I didn’t ask your name. I wonder why you are so badly injured. If I hadn’t gone for a walk a few hours earlier, you would probably have died from blood loss,” Yae Sakura asked.

Name? Anyway, Karen probably won't come to Yae Village after she goes back, so it doesn't matter if I use my real name.

"My name is Su Xin."

"Xin?"

“Xin, the first light of dawn.”

"I see, I understand now."

"Um, could you please not use honorifics? You're my savior to some extent, and using honorifics makes me feel a little uneasy," Su Xin suggested.

Yae Sakura paused, then smiled gracefully and replied, "Okay."

Su Xin was somewhat lost in thought. Yae Sakura's smile seemed to overlap with that of Sakura from 50,000 years ago, which naturally made Su Xin feel a sense of goodwill towards her.

The two people cannot look very similar; they must look exactly alike.
