It was as if a door shut for a long time had opened in Saburo Nagatoâs heart. He growled at the dark shadow in the room.
âMe? Probably to you, I am just an illusion.â
âYouâ¦â
In front of Saburo Nagato, a man dressed as a samurai but much younger than him walked out of the corner of the room. The samurai met his gaze. He didnât know why he couldnât see the samurai in the eye. He subconsciously looked away and immediately retreated. The appearance of this guy was too abnormal!
No, this samurai already knows my purpose for coming here! A trace of murderous intent suddenly buds in Saburo Nagatoâs heart. But this killing intent disappeared in an instant.
Perhaps this is the end of my sins.
âYou want to die, right?â
âWhat did you say?â Saburo Nagato met the mysterious samuraiâs gaze again and said in a deep voice, âWho are you!?â
âYou donât dare to face Haru Narukami, even if you know she is trapped under the dungeon of Nagatoâs house.â
âWho are you!?â Saburo Nagato was crazy for an instant, rushed forward, and directly grasped the collar of this mysterious samurai with both hands. His eyes were ferocious, like a wounded wolf hiding in a dark cave and licking his wounds.
âSaburo Nagato, you dare not face Haru Narukami, you dare not fight Nagato Munechika, and even the reason why you returned to Unripe Rice Village is not to come back to recover your injury. The real reason is that you are a deserter on the battlefield.â
Saburo Nagatoâs breathing was violent like sea tides, while this mysterious samurai was like a breeze on the grassland.
âI can give you a chance to end it all. Would you want it?â
âChanceâ¦â Saburo Nagato stopped suddenly and took two steps back. He felt pale and weak, only to say with a wry smile, âYou donât know. You donât know how terrifying my brother is. He is powerful! He doesnât look like a human at all!â
âBecause Nagato Munechika canât be considered a human in the first place.â
âWhat?â Saburo Nagato was taken aback.
But when Saburao Nagato saw this mysterious samurai smile, it was the kind of scholastic smile. Saburo Nagato found it incredible because this mysterious samurai was twenty-seven years old, but this smile looked like a young man.
âMy name is Mo Xiaofei. How about you?â
âSaburo⦠Saburo Nagatoâ¦â He answered softly.
Mo Xiaofei nodded, âSaburo Nagato, would you like to purge the nightmare of Unripe Rice Village with me?â
Saburo Nagato smiled bitterly, âPurge? Do you know what it means behind this? Itâs impossible for me.â
Mo Xiaofei said, âYou are afraid that once this curse scam is known to the villagers, the Nagato family will no longer be able to gain a foothold in this place, right? Committing such a crime will also tarnish the Nagato familyâs glory. I think Nagato Munechika should have used this kind of reason to restrain you? But, I donât think this is the main reason.â
âYou know everything!â Saburo Nagato had horror painted on his face, feeling that everything about him was seen through. There was no secret in front of this mysterious samurai at all.
âItâs not important. The important thing is â are you willing to do everything with me to wipe out this nightmare?â Mo Xiaofei sent out the invitation again.
âWhat do you want to do?â Saburo Nagatoâs heart suddenly thumped.
This feels so real. If I didnât know that everything in front of me was just a memory that the little girl couldnât resolve, I would regard these as reality.
Mo Xiaofei sighed slightly, âListen, I donât want to reveal this scam because no one can bear it. Those innocent girls and those who are full of expectations when they grow up will be shattered by reality. This reality is too cruel. I donât even know how long it takes to heal a wound like this.â
âYouâre thinkingâ¦â
âItâs not to tear it down.â Mo Xiaofei whispered, âIf you are willing to join, we need to heal it. Since there is this curse, we just need to get rid of this curse.â
Mo Xiaofei said, looking at the two women bravely using pills in this room, âJust wait quietly for the arrival of tomorrow. Everything will be better.â
Saburo Nagato was uncertain. He couldnât find out the origin of the other party, but he found that this might be the best solution after careful consideration. The villagers did not need to know the reality, but they could be reborn and free from the clutches of Nagato Munechika.
âYou will face my brotherâs wraith. You donât know how powerful he is.â Saburo Nagato was still a little timid at last.
âI think I can deal with him.â Mo Xiaofei shook his head suddenly, âDonât talk about him. I asked you for the last time, are you willing or unwilling? Do you want to continue to be a deserted soldier, or do you get the courage to go to that dungeon to apologize in front of the woman you once loved so much? By the way, I can let you know some additional info.â
âWhat else?â Saburo Nagato asked subconsciously.
Mo Xiaofei said calmly, âI feel no burden in killing you now because I recently learned the truth. If I can save more people by sacrificing a few, it will be a good deal.â
In fact, heroes donât need to be merciful. I should throw away the kindness in my past.
Then, I need to become strong to prevent tragedy from appearing. From crawling forward to firm footsteps, even if the road ahead is filled with thorns, I will still take every step forward.
Looking at Saburo Nagato, whose lips moved slightly, Mo Xiaofei took a deep breath and thundered, âSaburo Nagato, I dare you to use the three-foot-long katana and cut off the sins of the Nagato family!â
Clingâ!!!
Saburo Nagato instinctively pulled out the katana from his waist and then quickly cut a wound on his wrist, letting blood flow down, âSuddenly, I donât want to be drunk.â
