My mother's love song

Chapter 766: Rod Dao, End: The Craziest Women in History

“Pah…!”

A clear, discordant sound echoed in the courtyard of the Great Palace.

The women who were waiting for their beloved boy to return in the mansion looked in the direction of the voice and saw a shattered wine cup on the floor by the corridor.

The "murderer" standing in front of the remains of the wine cup with his hands hanging in the air was Ibaraki Douji, who had just been freed and immediately ran into the room to get the wine vessel to drink.

Seeing this scene, the girls immediately knew what was going on.

The prisoner who broke the thing didn't take it seriously. He put his hands on his waist and said, "It's all because the wine cup was too slippery. I didn't hold it tightly enough!"

"Why don't you get your nails trimmed?" Nozi asked.

"Haha? Stop kidding, human! Sharp claws are the symbol of demons!"

"You have to clean up the debris yourself, okay?"

"I know, I know... Humph, this is really troublesome."

At this time, Murasaki Shikibu stared at the fragments on the ground, pursed her lips and spoke.

"Ms. Ibaraki, you broke the master's favorite wine vessel..."

"……Eh?"

The atrium suddenly became quiet.

Ibaraki Douji's radiant little face suddenly turned pale, and he subconsciously covered his butt with his hands.

In the delicate atmosphere, someone whispered something.

"It's really unlucky..."

……

……

……

""

The Suzaku Road was devastated by the mythical war and was completely changed.

All disputes ended with the departure of one person.

Rhodes lay quietly in the arms of Amaterasu and never opened his eyes since then.

he died.

Lost heartbeat, lost body temperature, lost thinking.

In contrast to Rhodes's shattered and scarred body, the boy's face had a peaceful and calm expression.

It was as if he left this world with immense satisfaction.

"........."

Tamamonomae and Ibuki-douji opened their eyes wide, standing motionless not far away, staring at Rhodes who had turned into a corpse.

There is no sadness at all.

There was no wavering emotion.

Pain, sadness, helplessness, despair...such emotions did not emerge in their hearts.

All he had was the thought of trying hard to accept the fact that Rhodes was dead.

That's because in the hearts of Tamamonomae and Ibuki Douji, they have always subconsciously believed that

Rhodes' death, only his death was the most unlikely thing to happen in this world.

Even though they had lost most of their power and became mere mortals, they still firmly believed that Rhode would return as invincible as before.

The contrast between such profound beliefs and cruel reality made it difficult for them to accept for a long time.

thump.

There was a muffled sound.

Caster Agrippina [Sajo Aika], who had been immobilized by Amaterasu, fell to the ground.

She closed her eyes like Sleeping Beauty, just like her grandson/son who had just died tragically to protect her.

But anyone could see that Caster had just fainted.

Finally, the last of the four who witnessed the boy's death

She had been hugging the cold body of Amaterasu, who had accidentally killed Rod, and she kept crying.

Sometimes it is sad and sorrowful, sometimes it is passionate and high-spirited.

"Susanoo... wake up... it's time to accompany me to inspect Awahara China...

Didn’t you promise my sister yesterday that you would stay with me all day today?

Really, the sun has already risen so high, but he is still sleeping so soundly... It's like he doesn't take me seriously at all...

Who do you think adopted you when you were helpless? Hmm, how should I punish you this time?"

Amaterasu rubbed her cheek against the boy's cold cheek lovingly and said softly.

"...Susanoo? This is an order from onee-sama, please open your eyes quickly... ok?

Why on earth won't you open your eyes?

If you do this kind of prank again, I will really be angry, okay?

Eh? What? You are actually angry with your sister, so you don't want to open your eyes?

Ah…Ah…Ahh…Ahhhhhhh…I’m sorry…”

“I’m sorry, I ...!!!”

The most noble and arrogant Queen God of Takamagahara buried her head in the boy's arms and carefully apologized.

"It was my fault... I went too far!

I am always so willful! I am always so self-righteous! I am always so unreasonable!

...Yes, yes! It's decided! I'm giving up!

So...I have completely given up on ruling Yamato!

Hey? Really, really! I won't think of any conspiracy anymore!

From now on, I will listen to your wishes and live only for you!

So please, don't leave your sister! Please, Susanoo"

No matter how Amaterasu cried or begged, she got no response because Rod was already dead.

“Ahh…Ahhh…Uoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo…waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa…”

The goddess' sorrow turned into desperate cries that echoed endlessly.

She still couldn't understand what had happened.

Why didn't the power work when he wanted to save Rhodes' life at the last moment?

Is this all punishment for the sin of arrogance that I have committed?

If that's the case, I, the guilty one, should be punished instead of my innocent brother!

Thinking of this, the goddess' beautiful hands began to tremble, and waves of pain came from her chest.

"Today, my hands are shaking... Today, my heart aches..."

"Why is this happening?

I gave everything, but I couldn’t even protect my own brother…”

"Why did you give me this kind of pain?

What on earth did I do wrong!? What on earth did I do wrong!? "

"Brother... my most beloved brother...

Sister...sister...sister...sister I really love you so much, why do you treat me like this! ?

Uwaa ...

Just as Amaterasu was drowning deeper and deeper in the whirlpool of madness, her tearful eyes seemed to catch a glimpse of something.

Amaterasu stopped acting crazy and looked at her right hand.

On the back of the hand that had been pierced by his brother's curse, a set of gorgeous patterns appeared that had not existed before.

The strange thing is that, although that is obviously the location where the Command Seals appear, Amaterasu is neither a Master nor a Caster.

What's even more strange is that the pattern is not a command spell, but

The dark command spell of heresy.

The black pattern carved on the snow-white skin is the Seraph.

The dark command spell of seven wings.

"...!!!"

Amaterasu was stunned.

In addition to being shocked, Amaterasu also instantly deciphered the origins of this foreign object that had been integrated into her body without her knowing when.

It was on the eve of the Fourth Holy Grail War that Rhodes placed the Seraph's Command Seal into Aika Sajo's body as a backup save point for his soul.

As long as this Command Spell still exists, even if Rhode's soul is scattered and his existence is obliterated, he still has a final means of resurrection.

That is to be inside Aige's body and then be born by her.

But...why is such an important thing in my possession?

Amaterasu looked at Caster who had fainted on the ground with a look of surprise.

Inside the slightly opened front of the girl's kimono, Aika Sajo's flat chest was white.

In the final battle with Amaterasu, Caster transferred all of his magic power, magic seals, and this Command Seal to Rhodes!

Why do you do this!

Don’t you know how important this Command Spell is?

The technique will only remain effective while it remains inside Aige's body. It will be useless the moment it is separated from her body!

Now this Command Spell no longer has any magic or mystery, it is just an ordinary tattoo!

It was you who wiped out his last chance of survival! My brother can no longer be resurrected!

Amaterasu wanted to grab Aige angrily, question her and scold her.

But she immediately realized that this must be Rhodes's request.

The only person who could make Aika Sajo transfer this soul seal that was more important than her life must be Rhodes himself.

"Why……"

"Why did you do such a stupid thing...my dear brother..."

Amaterasu stroked the boy's stiff cheek and tears flowed again.

"........."

Something emerged in Amaterasu's eyes as she cried in despair.

What is reflected in the beautiful amber eyes is not only the seal of the seven feathers on the back of the hand.

At this moment, she closed her eyes and looked at her memory.

Fragments of memory scattered in the distant past.

The Queen God of Takamagahara fell into painful but happy memories
