Epilogue: The Price of Miracles
Tragedies were "made" in front of Kii one after another, and Yubari gradually sank into her psychological defense, no matter how bad her personal relationship with her third brother Terumasa was, but that one was her brother, and Yubari who was about to join their Sanjo family. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
She couldn't accept that she would die here because of her persistence. It was even more uncomfortable than stabbing her in the chest with a blade, and she had done her best in this battle, but it was only a repeat of the decisive battle of the New Hebrides, where many ships were sunk, and finally Nagato died with his own life with the battleship Suhime.
And this time, it was all because of the tragedy she incurred, and the Moored Water Ghost was completely sunk one by one by the ships close to Kii.
"Don't ...... No...... Stop it! ”
Ki Yi choked and sobbed quietly, she didn't care about the Moordi Water Ghost's request, but in exchange for the scarred Moordi Water Ghost's contemptuous ridicule of her.
"No, not to ask me, but to order me as a true member of our camp. You are the daughter of the deep, and as long as you return to the deep sea fleet, you will be our new commander, and of course I will do what you order. But now you're not, and you've repeatedly turned down our invitations. So I can't listen to you. ”
The water ghost of the park deliberately did not fire another cannonball at Yubari because she had found a better way. The sinking Yubari attracted the rescue of other ships, and the other shipwives could not save Yubari, but they were able to pick up Yubari's surviving crew.
But the shipwrecks who came to the rescue seemed to have forgotten that they were still within the range of the shelling of the moored water ghosts......
The ones who went to the rescue were the setting moon and the May rain, and the water ghosts couldn't help but laugh out loud when they saw this scene. The best materials for torturing Kii appeared one after another, and the battle plan was too smooth for her.
"Kii, I'll give you one last chance. For a minute, you can do anything to try to stop me. But when the time comes, if you are not willing to 'surrender'. Both of them will also fall victim to your beliefs. ”
Grief-stricken, Kii saw the moon and the May rain docked on the edge of the Yubari from afar, and in an instant Kii's whole body disappeared, and she wished that she had passed out, and took what was happening now as a dream.
Sato Gonjun noticed that Kii was slumped and kneeling, and ran forward to support Kii first. "What's going on?"
"Mayrain and other ships trying to rescue the crew of the Yubari, they ...... All within the range of the shelling of the Moorland Water Spirits...... I can't stop it. Kii has lost her ability to think and judge, and the change in her situation is beyond her bearing. She couldn't imagine the reality of the Mayrain being sunk after Yubari, probably driving her crazy completely.
"Tell them to retreat from the May Rain!" Gonjun Sato yelled at the crew on the side, "There is also a radio under the bridge for communication within the team. ”
"Only for a minute...... It's useless. ”
Kii's words made Sato Gonjun feel powerless, he should have thought that the water ghost of the berland would not wait kindly, and the so-called staying for a minute was just relying on this time to torture Kii and make her spirit collapse step by step.
"Damn!" Sato stomped hard, showing his emotions in a rare way during the battle.
At the same time, Yubari's life also burned to an end. The two hugged each other tightly, and the chaotic shouts outside could no longer affect them.
"I'm sorry, please forgive me for breaking my promise with you this time. Not only for you, but also for Kii, I, as an older brother, have been selfishly venting the accumulated resentment on her, and have never had the opportunity to apologize for her, and even naturally speak coldly to her. Only this time, for you, for my sister. Even if I go to hell, I will reverse the situation! ”
Sanjo Terumasa let go of Yubari in his arms, as if recalling the life he had spent with Yubari in the past, and more than 6 years ago, when he confirmed that Kii was Sanjo Kirin, he only felt that he was guilty of a serious crime.
He has always wanted to wash away his sins against Kii, but the long-term habit of getting along has already made Sanjo Teruma a sinner who constantly pours out his resentment on Kii. Even though he knew it was a mistake, he couldn't give up this unique way of relieving pressure after sucking on the poison of trampling on the dignity of others.
Today, when the moment of life and death was decided, he was able to get rid of the heavy shackles and be able to use his identity as an older brother to protect his sister.
"Yubari, I'm a wicked person, but please keep this secret for me forever. I'm a very good-looking person, and when I have the chance, I'll tell her that I, Terumasa, Sanjo, will be mocking her incompetent command until I die. ”
Terumasa Sanjo pulled the gemstone pendant out of his pocket, and he pulled open his shirt, ready to give his life directly.
Yubari's eyes were half-open, she had no strength left, and if Sanjo Terumasa didn't use the power of the previous generation of the Daughter of the Deep Sea, her last bit of vitality would also be lost.
The tip of the gem shard pierced into Sanjo Terumasa's chest, and in a trance, he seemed to hear endless words of resentment from the deep sea, and a black figure appeared in front of him.
"Unleash all your resentment on me! Please give me the power of your illusions. ”
Terumasa Sanjo didn't know that he could hold on for a few seconds, repair Yubari's broken core, and then launch a full blow at the water ghost as much as he could. It may be that the moment he gains power, he can only rely on willpower to carry out two impossible things.
The gem pendant touched the blood of Sanjo Terumasa, and it immediately wrapped Sanjo Terumasa's whole person under control, frantically sucking the blood of Sanjo Terumasa. The revenant who remained on the gem shard heard Terumasa Sanjo's request, but she instinctively resisted Terumasa Sanjo, and humans were very incompatible with her.
A miracle happened at this moment, when the jewel pendant that had caused Sanjo Terumasa's death slipped from him and fell on Yubari, who was covered in blood, and all the negative effects were split in two. One is a person who is bent on dying, while the other is looking forward to living, and the gemstone pendant that cannot come up with a perfect solution stops at the fragment of what it understands as a prayer - resentment, and is born into a result called a miracle.
Sanjo Teruma fell into a coma at the same time as Yubari, and all the wounds and injuries on their bodies were changed to their initial state in an instant.
The sinking of the Yubari was unstoppable, and when Mayrain heard the warning from the Kii, the water ghost of the berland once again revealed her hideous face.
"When the time comes, blame yourself for your indecision! Kii! It's because you don't want to return to the deep-sea fleet that so many people and ship mothers died here. And I'm scarred trying to get you back, it's all your fault! ”
The water ghost also chose to bet her fate on this persecution, as long as she could shake and loosen Kii's heart, even if she violated the law and directly polluted Kii's spirit, she would let Kii's will be destroyed. In order to put an end to the fate of their friends who had fallen into tragedy to kill each other, she no longer cared about this level of loss.
The towering single-mounted main guns had locked onto the Mayrain, and the Moored Water Ghost was confident that he could sink the fragile destroyer with a single shot.
"Stop...... I want you to stop! Kii's shout was pale and weak, probably only Sato Gonjun beside her could understand her helplessness and anxiety at the moment, it was impossible for the deep sea to have mercy on the weak, and the water ghost could continue to threaten even if he sank the May Rain and the North Ship and others, although the effect of continuous coercion would be reduced, but this risk would not affect an extremely cool-headed Suhime to make a wrong act.
Kii climbed up from the deck and rushed to the guardrail at the bow of the ship. Meaningless behavior, even if he stretched out his hands, he couldn't touch anything from a distance of 10,000 meters, and Kii was already desperate.
"I order with the authority of the Daughter of the Deep Sea, the Mooring Water Ghost, I ask you to kill yourself immediately!"
In desperation, Kii chooses the exact opposite of what she believes, as she is the Daughter of the Deep, with many powers granted by the will of the Deep, including an instantaneous order to execute traitors.
When the water ghost heard Kii's declaration, he was also stunned for a moment, stopped shooting and turned to look at Kii. "Huh? Kii, is your brain already burning? Even if you stab yourself, the command to choose to take my life force can hinder me. Invalid, I did not commit an act of betrayal. ”
Disintegrate...
The water ghost could understand Kii's inner situation at this moment, and panicked and thought that she had special permissions, and then realized that there was the only order to kill a deep-sea ship of the Suhime level immediately, so she hurriedly used it on herself.
Disintegrate......
In a sense, Kii is the betrayer of the Deep Sea Fleet, and her orders make the moored water ghosts laugh. The guns fired, but not a single shell came out of the barrel of the Moored Water Spirit, because she hadn't finished laughing at Kii's funny commands, and didn't want to open fire to sink the Mayrain and the other ships.
"This ...... How can it be?! ”
The moored water ghost felt the continuous explosions in his ship's interior, and the carrier-based aircraft, fuel tanks, ammunition, and various instruments and devices all exploded one after another.
As the scale of the explosion continued to increase, the giant roadbed-type perched in the light of the fire that illuminated the white clouds, and she did not realize that the will of the deep sea was not only looking forward to the destruction of human civilization in the form of war to enjoy the accumulation of resentment, but also the deep sea inhabitants were also the source of her spiritual food.
[Hehehe...... Everyone is back together...... How nice it would be to be able to do it. 】
The hull of the Moored Water Spirit gradually shattered into several pieces, and her body was separated from it in the baptism of water and fire, and until her death she was fantasizing about the happy scene of all her friends reunited in the depths of the sea.
The flesh turned to dust in an instant, leaving nothing behind.
Gonjun Sato and many others have witnessed the self-detonation of the water ghosts in the berland, and they don't have the same eyesight as the ship's mother, but they can still clearly see the clouds illuminated by the firelight in their line of sight.
"It's over......" Gonjun Sato didn't understand what was going on, but he understood what it meant for the water ghost to blow himself up. The IJN Combined Fleet was victorious, and the next attack on Hawaii was just around the corner.
"Kii, let's ......" Sato Gonjun looked at the bow of the ship again, and the desperate figure just now had disappeared.
Victory is always accompanied by sacrifice, and in the pale sea and sky, the sea reveals its fierce appearance.
