On the hill behind the village, a dense crowd of people gathered, watching with heart the water at the foot of the mountain that had flooded the village.

"Ah, Sakaki is back, is he fleeing back? Or have you successfully dealt with the monsters? I'm looking forward to it! ”

With the sound of the full moon of the ghost lamp, a group of people suddenly looked into the distance and saw a half-shark man stepping on the waves, moving towards this side!

"Monster!"

Screams rang out one after another, regardless of men and women, young and old, because many people had never even seen Xiaobai's shadow, they only knew that there were monsters, and Sakaki was like a monster at the moment, so naturally the fear of Xiaobai in the past was transferred to Sakaki!

The ghost lantern full moon looked at these panicked and spitting evil words, and couldn't help but smile evilly, he was very much looking forward to Sakaki's reaction when he saw and heard this, and he didn't know how much psychological shadow area would be left!

Only Nanako saw the essence of the sakaki tree from the new appearance of the sakaki tree, and tried her best to appease the crowd and defend the sakaki tree!

"Don't panic, everyone, he's another alien ninja who subdued the monster for us, and now that he's back, it's likely to be ......"

However, Nanako's words drowned out the exclamations of the crowd as the Sakaki trees were rushing towards the top of the mountain where they were.

"Do you have ......?"

Nanako looked at Sakaki with anticipation on her face, and opened her mouth cautiously, afraid of disappointment, and immediately got the good news of Sakaki!

"I do what I say! Xiaobai has been solved by me, and there will be no more Xiaobai in this country in the future! ”

"Great!" Nanako's face suddenly showed ecstasy, and she couldn't help but jump up happily, just like a girl... At least a psychological girl!

Bang bang bang ~ Rhythmic applause sounded, and the ghost lantern full moon said with a smile: "It's worthy of a sakaki tree, it's really amazing!" However, you, the hero who subdued the monsters for them, are treated like a monster, I wonder how you feel? ”

Nanako hurriedly said: "Don't blame everyone, they have no malicious intentions, it's just fear after misunderstanding!" Besides, with your current appearance, you really look like a monster, and even I feel scared! ”

At the end, Nanako couldn't help but laugh! Laughing and putting the finishing touch, unlike others who said that he was a monster that made him unhappy, Nanako said this, but it made him feel a sense of closeness!

Suddenly, Nanako asked with a worried face, "Why are you like this?" Could it be that he was cursed by a monster? Don't be discouraged, there is always a way, even if it is ......"

For Nanako's brain, Sakaki couldn't help crying and laughing.

"Okay, don't think too much about it, it's just a trick of mine, it feels good and keeps it up, I'll unravel it for you now!"

Syllable~

The shark muscle is separated from the body, and the sakaki tree returns to its original appearance, but then again, this is at most a little improvement, because the appearance of the ghost shark is already ugly like a monster!

The exclamations of the crowd eased slightly, but the real fear was not alleviated, and it was a little scary to see Sakaki's appearance, but seeing that he could switch between a half-fish man and a strange man, suddenly had a very bad association.

For example, when you say that a monster in human skin is very suitable for the scene in front of you!

"Don't worry, I'll tell them the truth!" said that Sakaki should not be in a hurry, but Nanako herself was in a hurry, and immediately said loudly: "Everyone be quiet!" Please don't get Sakaki wrong, he's not a monster, he's a hero who subdued monsters and saved the country......"

The crowd did not calm down, there were still some frightened whispers, Nanako was even more anxious, the volume was raised higher, and she worked hard to resolve the misunderstanding!

"Forget it!" Sakaki grabbed Nanako's arm and said nonchalantly, "It's just a trivial matter, I don't care at all!" ”

Who cares about the misunderstanding of irrelevant people? Even they themselves are not worth talking about in his heart!

"But you ......"

"Hehe, you don't have to work hard for me!"

"Hey~ I'm not here for you! I'm just out of righteousness, and I don't want a hero who has helped everyone to be misunderstood! Nanako's cheeks flushed slightly, and a pair of beautiful big eyes stared at Sakaki, and she said angrily, "Let go!" You're so rude, don't let go of my hand yet! ”

"Well, don't care, it's just a habitual action!"

Sakaki smiled and let go of her hand, and Nanako looked at her with suspicion.

"Habitual movements?"

This question stumped Sakaki, where did he get his habit, he didn't have an impression at all, he did it completely subconsciously, he didn't feel abrupt at all, so strange!

The crowd was talking one after another, and some people even saw Sakaki grabbing Nanako's hand, so they suspected that Sakaki had held Nanako hostage, and they were quietly discussing whether to summon up the courage to save their shrine maiden-sama!

Nanako sighed and told Sakaki to go to the other side to talk, she felt that she had to change the environment, otherwise even if she didn't have evil thoughts, maybe she would be made evil by the attitude of the villagers!

"Let's go! Go with confidence, I promise you won't let anyone disturb you in the world together! "The ghost lamp full moon paid the price for one of his mouths, and the shark muscles attacked and gave him a mouthful of stuff again!

"Sakaki, I said don't make such jokes anymore, I'm really going to die!"

The full moon of the ghost lamp that lost his head frightened the crowd into screaming, which made him not know what the hell idea was, so he turned around directly in a headless state, and rushed towards the screaming crowd with his teeth and claws, and another round of monster sounds were endless!

"Your companion is so delicate, and he is so good to you!"

"Nanako, you're wrong, this guy just thinks it's fun, and it doesn't mean anything else!"

While Sakaki and Nanako were talking, they walked under a big tree on the other side of the mountain, which is a no-man's land, probably because they can see the flooded village under the mountain from here, and they are afraid of touching the scene, so no one wants to stay here, just giving them a quiet space to be alone!

"I'm sorry, I apologize to you on their behalf!" Nanako seriously bowed apologetically to Sakaki.

"It's completely unnecessary! After all, I really destroyed their home, and if they didn't escape in time, it would be me who would kill them, so they deserved to behave like this! ”

"No, it's not like that! I know you didn't mean that, so I won't force them to abandon their homes for the reasons you deliberately gave! Fortunately, my shrine maiden still has some prestige, everyone is willing to believe me, and at the same time, everyone is willing to sacrifice their own homes for the sake of the bigger family, for the common home of all people in this country! So, you don't have to think too much about Sakaki, just give them a little time to get used to it, and I'm sure they'll know you're a good person! ”

"Good guys?"

"Well, it's a good person, that's what I think anyway!"

It seems that some people once said that he was a good person, but who is it, why does the image of the woman in front of him always linger in his mind when he thinks about it?

When Sakaki was puzzled, Nanako saw the strange sword behind Sakaki's back and asked, "This little snake is... Offspring of monsters? ”

Sakaki smiled, reached out and took off the Tiancong Cloud Sword, only to see Xiaobai being skewered on the sword like a skewer, and said, "It's Xiaobai, that is, the monster you saw!" ”

"What?!" Nanako was taken aback, "Why did the monster become like this?" ”

"To put it simply, I absorbed the chakra, and then Xiaobai shriveled and shrunk like this!"

Nanako didn't understand, but this wasn't the point, the key was that she saw it, the skewered Xiaobai was still squirming, and the snake pupils were wandering by themselves, obviously still alive!

"Why isn't it dead yet? No, the monster that hurt this country must die, even if it is your so-called pet, it is unforgivable to commit such a sin! ”

"Oh, if you want to kill it, feel free, but I warn you, Xiaobai has an immortal body! Forget it, I'm not used to getting blood when I look like you, so I'll give you a demonstration! ”

Tiancong Cloud Sword shook, Xiaobai's body immediately turned into two sections from the middle, and then in Nanazi's surprised gaze, the two sections of Xiaobai fused back together, and then Tiancong Cloud Sword stabbed, and the skewered Xiaobai appeared again, still alive!

"It's... It seems that this country can only completely let go of the past hatred and pain and start anew! And ......" Nanako stared at Sakaki with big eyes, and said in a few words, "Although you said that you forgot why you let the monster appear here, since you are the owner of the monster, you are responsible!" So, even if you subdue the monster and help the country get out of the shadow of the monster, it can only be regarded as a merit and a demerit, so I won't thank you, and of course I won't blame you anymore! ”

"That's enough!"

Sakaki smiled gently, Nanako's big eyes blinked, fluttering, and couldn't help but say what she felt in her heart!

"You're such a gentle man!"

Mild?!

Sakaki raised his eyebrows in confusion and smiled, "I've rarely heard such incredible comments!" I have the impression that only a few people who are very important to me will say that about me, isn't ......?"

duang~

An evocative voice sounded, Sakaki covered her head, and looked at Nanako in disbelief, only to see her hiding the 'sinful' hand behind her back with a pink face, and reprimanded in disgust.

"What nonsense are you talking about! I just gave a fair evaluation at random, and it doesn't mean anything else, don't think about it! ”

“？” Sakaki blinked his eyes, and there was a hint of stupidity in this terrifying countenance.

"Don't pretend to be innocent! Anyway... Hmph, I won't tell you, go back! Nanako turned around, her heart pounding, this feeling is so strange!

What's even more strange is why she feels itchy when she sees each other? Moreover, I couldn't help but really do such a violent thing! You know, she Nanako, whether from the evaluation of others or her own self-feeling from the heart, is undoubtedly the most gentle, the least violent existence!

But why would she be the only one who did it to him? It seems that from the bottom of her heart, she should do this kind of thing to him, why is this?

Not only Nanako's heart is surging, but Sakaki is also full of incomprehension.

You know, with his violent temper, it's not a random existence that can make people smash their heads, this is a serious event that will kill people, but why did he not have any stress reaction in the face of this woman's fist, and even had a feeling that this was just a general adaptation of daily life.

The two walked silently in parallel, full of thoughts, who knows!

Soon after, the water gradually receded, and everyone went down the mountain to clean up their homes that had been washed away by the current!

Sakaki came to this country in order to subdue Xiaobai, and since the purpose has been achieved, it is natural to say goodbye and leave, although there is an inexplicable voice in his heart that tells him not to leave.

Nanako warmly invited him to have a meal before leaving, and cooked for Sakaki herself, making a simple but delicious meal for Sakaki, this familiar taste made Sakaki eat unbelievable!

In the end, Nanako personally sent Sakaki to the entrance of the village, and followed him with a complicated gaze without blinking, until ......

The two maids finally couldn't help it: "Miko-sama, you shouldn't really be attracted to that monster, right?" ”

"He's not a monster!" Nanako corrected seriously, and at the same time frowned slightly and said, "It's not attractive, it's just that seeing this man always makes my heart feel uncalm......"

"Aren't you attracted to it, Mikome-sama?!"

"Anyway, your vision is really strange, even if he is not a monster, he is an ugly man like a monster, he is completely different from you! It's the handsome guy called the Ghost Lantern Full Moon, who looks like a good match for you! ”

Nanako smiled dumbly: "Don't be foolish, the handsome guy is more suitable for you, then again, haven't you visited the village with him, so the two beautiful girls, what do you have to gain?" ”

The two maids glanced at each other, and they saw the loss in each other's eyes: "We can feel that he is only doing that to us for a certain purpose, although he always smiles at us along the way, but in fact, it is far, far away from us......"

"Alright, stop thinking about these sad things!" Nanako opened her arms magnificently, hugged the two girls, and comforted with a smile, "It seems that you have indeed reached the age of spring, don't worry, leave it to me, I will definitely find a husband for you who is 10,000 times better than that guy!" ”

"Miko-sama......" the two maids blushed in disobedience, "Let's not get married!" We're going to be by the shrine maiden's side for the rest of our lives, and we'll be waiting for you! ”

"You guys......"

After laughing, in the following days, Nanako will unconsciously think of Sakaki from time to time, she is a little unbearable for the wrong perception of Sakaki in the village, although Sakaki said that she doesn't care, and the person has left, but she is trying very hard to rehabilitate Sakaki on various occasions.

She says that Sakaki is not a monster, but a hero who saved the country!

Although the villagers believe that the shrine maiden will not tell lies to deceive them, in their hearts, they do not want to believe that Sakaki is not a monster, but a hero!

Among the children in the village, there is a trend of using Sakaki trees as monsters to play games.

"The monster is coming, I've got you! Hey, it's boring, now I'm playing a monster, it's scary, you should be afraid of me! ”

"I'm not afraid of monsters, because I have the blessing of the witch, but I saw it at that time, the scene of the witch teaching the monster with her fist, the monster faces the witch, just like Xiao Ming was beaten by his father, just like the good behave!"

"Hmph, you were just beaten by your father, and you are not only good, but you also cry! However, I also saw the scene where the monster was taught by the shrine maiden.,I don't know if you've heard of the legend about Shikigami.,You say this monster is not Shikigami summoned by Mikoma-sama.! ”

The idea of Shikigami started among children and quickly became popular throughout the village, because it perfectly catered to the beautiful and simple wishes of the masses of the people!

Sakaki is ugly like a monster, and it makes perfect sense to be a Shikigami! And as a shrine maiden with mysterious powers, it makes perfect sense to be able to summon Shikigami!

The whole thing,Actually, it's the beautiful and kind shrine maiden.,Summoned the god of Sakaki.,Destroy the monster.,Protect everyone.,It's just that the shrine-maiden does good deeds without leaving a name.,That's why I made up such a story!

Ah, what a holy and noble shrine maiden!

It is already the limit for the ugly monster to be a god who walks with beauty, only good people do good things, and then reap all the glory, this is the perfect story that is most in line with the good wishes of the masses!

So much so, when the refugees in this country settled down and the displaced people returned one after another, this story spread wider, farther and deeper, and was quickly accepted by the people!

And after the toss between Sakaki and Xiaobai, especially Xiaobai's scourge, the country was originally under the domination of the Kazama clan, and the order established was completely shattered, and now this order has not been established, and the greatest suffering is just far away, the people need to rebuild their homes, and their hearts urgently need a pillar period, and the existence of the shrine maiden undoubtedly caters to their needs!

As a result, Nanako was stunned to find that she was not only regarded as a witch by the people of the village, but also gradually respected as a witch by the people of this country!

Although this is not her original wish, she sincerely hopes that this country can become better and the people can no longer suffer, she may not be able to do much, but at least, she can do her best!

In the fields, in various towns, there have been Nanako's figure, in her heartfelt gentle smile, the pain experienced by the country is gradually gone, order is re-established, the people are gradually full of hope, the enthusiasm is in full swing step by step to rebuild their homes, a peaceful life is beckoning to them not far away!

Although Nanako didn't want to get anything out of it, it was this mindset of no profit that made her image in the hearts of the people rise unlimitedly, and soon her reputation in this country far surpassed that of the whirlpool who had ruled the country for a long time more than 20 years ago.

It's as if there is a providence in the dark!
