Collapse, I save everything alone

Page 90

That’s right, this is Yaezakura’s stigmata space.

Last time, the priestess chose to stay here and live here temporarily with her sister, who was the incarnation of the holy mark will of this space.

It has been a while now and I haven't been here for a long time, so I don't know how they are doing recently.

I'd like to take this opportunity to visit them.

This holy scar space exists independently from the original world. It is a relatively quiet place and should be able to meet Xilin's needs.

Of course, if Xilin wants to stay here, she must first obtain the consent of the owner...

Specifically, it was the consent of Rin and Yaesakura.

He shouldn't have acted first and reported later, but he had already confirmed in advance that such a future was feasible, so he brought Xilin here directly.

Looking around, this holy scar space has already undergone earth-shaking changes.

It was originally a mountain world that replicated the Yae Village in Yaesakura's memory. But now, that sinful village has completely disappeared without even a trace left.

Now all that came into his sight was a rich and beautiful pink.

A tall and straight cherry tree stood there, and pink petals fell like snow, as if the whole world was dyed pink.

And under the cherry tree, a small wooden house sits quietly.

That is where Rin and Yaesakura live now.

Perhaps because it sensed the visitor, the door of the wooden house shook slightly, making a slight creaking sound. The door was slowly pushed open, revealing a narrow gap.

Then, a small pink figure poked its head out and appeared in their sight.

She was a petite and delicate girl, wearing a pink kimono with gorgeous patterns on the silk, as beautiful as a blooming cherry blossom.

Her hair was tied up with two ribbons of the same color, which set off her pretty face like a blooming flower.

The pink-haired girl saw who was coming and immediately waved to him happily, shouting:

"Xiao Xiaobai, you are here~"

"Well, long time no see, Rin."

Mingyu came to the pink-haired girl and she hugged one of his arms affectionately. He then stretched out his other free hand and rubbed her little head.

The girl enjoyed the touch, then leaned her head out and looked at the three girls behind him.

"Who are these sisters?"

"They are Xilin and Xier. Um... Actually, I came here this time because I want to ask you and Ying for a favor."

Mingyu said honestly.

Lin glanced at the girls, pouted slightly, and said with a hint of jealousy:

"It's different from the last Mei-sister. It seems that you, Xiao Xiaobai, have a lot of good friends outside."

She loosened her hands that were holding Mingyu's arms, took two steps back, and said with a faint smile:

"Anyway, come in and sit down first."

The smile is faint and as warm as the spring breeze.

..............................

"Sakura, long time no see."

In the kitchen of the house, the witch was preparing lunch.

It was called lunch, but it was actually rice balls that she made herself.

With slight movements of her fingers, she carefully kneaded the crisp white rice into rice balls one by one, and with the addition of the scent of cherry blossoms, the house was filled with a subtle fragrance just like outside.

After hearing Mingyu's voice, she temporarily stopped what she was doing, washed her hands with clean water, and then walked out of the kitchen.

"...Long time no see, Mingyu."

"How are you?"

"Better than before. I'm sorry that you had to see me lose my composure last time."

Sakura replied softly.

She lowered her head slightly, and a few strands of hair fell gently in front of her forehead.

Because Feiyumaru is no longer dependent on her, without the various psychological hints exerted by the fox, she will no longer be tortured by nightmares.

With Rin's company, his condition has improved a lot recently.

"That's good. By the way, I came here this time to..."

Mingyu coughed lightly and told the other party about Xilin.

"You want that girl to stay in this holy scar space for a while?"

The cherry-haired girl glanced at the purple-haired girl in the main hall and said thoughtfully.

"Well, that's exactly it."

Mingyu nodded.

Letting her stay here for a while might bring her some comfort. After all, this holy scar space is a place isolated from the outside world.

"I can accept that, but I think you need to ask Rin's opinion."

Yaezakura quickly agreed.

She had no resistance to this. After all, Mingyu had helped her a lot before, and she had no way to repay him.

However, since Lin is the self-will of this holy scar space, I still have to talk to her about this matter.

Mingyu looked at the rice ball she was busy making and said with a smile:

"Let me help you with it."

……

After a while, under the cherry tree outside the house.

Surrounded by the faint scent of cherry blossoms, the few rays of sunlight shine through the gaps between the branches and fall on the ground, forming mottled spots of light.

There is no dining table in the cabin, so Rin and Yaesakura usually choose to spread a thin blanket here and have a picnic, enjoying the delicious food while appreciating the scenery.

"Wow, this rice ball is delicious."

Xilin took a bite of the rice ball handed to her by Lin, her golden eyes sparkled, and she couldn't help but let out an exclamation of admiration.

Then he didn't care about his table manners and started to eat with relish.

"As long as you like it, my sister's cooking skills are quite good."

Lin looked at the purple-haired girl who was wolfing down the food without caring about her eating manners, and couldn't help but chuckle with her hands covering her mouth.

Xier on the side sat with Heixi and shared a rice ball together. However, the black and red girl seemed not quite used to showing herself in front of others and seemed quite reserved.

Well, it's completely different from the frenzy she had when she was fighting.

On the other hand, Xier acted quite outgoing and quickly became friends with Rin and Yae Sakura, and started chatting about various topics.

Her ability to quickly become friends with anyone is her unique strength.

And during the conversation, Rin's eyes would occasionally fall on Kuroki.

It seemed that she cared about this girl. After all, they should be considered the same type of existence, both of whom had consciousness born from the stigmata.

The meal ended quickly in a happy atmosphere.

Yaezakura stood up and started to clean up the leftovers from the meal, and Xier also took the initiative to help her.

Mingyu saw that the time had come, came to Lin's side, and whispered:

"By the way, Rin-chan..."

"Yeah~ I'm listening, what's wrong?"

The delicate girl asked with a smile on her face, as if she had already anticipated what he was going to say.

"Uh, that's it. I want Xilin to stay here for a while. I've already talked to Ying about this."

Mingyu said in a low voice.

Hearing this, the cherry-colored girl looked up at the purple-haired girl who was full and satisfied not far away, and said softly:

"Since it's Xiao Xiaobai's request, of course I can do it, but I'll charge you for it."

"So-called reward means..."

"Nothing, just come here often to see me and my sister."

A playful smile formed at the corner of Rin's mouth as she replied softly.

How could she embarrass the person who had once helped her and Yae Sakura?

only……

Lin's expression suddenly turned serious, and he said in a threatening tone:

"But next time you come, don't bring your other sisters with you."

A girl's mind is always hard to guess.

....................................

Now that Rin and Yaesakura's consent has been obtained, the only thing left is Xilin's own wish.

The girl, who had eaten and drunk her fill, was now standing under the cherry tree, gazing at the greenery covering the entire mountain.

This kind of pristine natural scenery is quite attractive to her as she was born in the permafrost.

Mingyu came to the girl and asked softly:

"What do you think of this place?"

"Not bad, eh?"

Xilin answered, and then asked curiously:

"Are they also the people you helped before?"

"You could say that."

Mingyu nodded.

"...Then you are really a busy man."

The purple-haired girl couldn't help but complain.

For him, helping these familiar faces overcome difficulties was what he wanted to do, and it was also a more or less necessary preparation for surviving the end of the world.

Furthermore, he can also benefit from these actions and gain wonderful abilities and powers, which will further help him improve his chances of successfully surviving the end, so why not do it?

"It's because troubles and difficulties always come one after another."

Even if he doesn't face them, they won't disappear on their own and they always have to be dealt with.

Mingyu shrugged and then asked:

"So, Miss Herrscher, what do you think? I have already told them."

"I don't hate it here, so..."

Xilin said in a low voice:

"……Can."

She agreed to stay here temporarily.

Then, the girl said a little embarrassedly:

"Mingyu, thank you for your help."

After all, he had no obligation to help him find a home.

Mingyu nodded and said:
