"I'm a very humble person."

Or night, the courtyard of the Ionian East Islanders.

Sitting in the cherry blossoms, so said.

"When I was very young, I didn't have parents. It was the teacher who adopted me, he taught me ninjutsu, taught me literacy, taught me to be a man, my life, the greatest wish, is to hope that one day, the teacher can recognize me, proud of me, but it's a pity that ......" is like talking to himself there, he said this, and smiled self-deprecatingly, the laughter in the empty courtyard with only dark incense, like some kind of lonely sigh, "I have a senior brother who is stronger than me, he learns ninjutsu faster than me, he knows more words than me, and even he is more humble and polite than me, and I can't win him in every competition." And most importantly, he had a father, and I didn't. ”

Chen Senran still didn't interject, he sat quietly opposite the robbery, listening to the life of the man opposite.

"Do you know the way? I hate and envy him. He chuckled and repeated, "I was so jealous of him that I looked for ways to become stronger like crazy, and finally I found it, and in the forbidden land of the clan, there was a voice telling me, come on, I can make you stronger, I didn't hesitate, even though it was an untouchable taboo, I didn't hesitate, in order to defeat him, in the end I really won him, but...... The teacher looked at me, but it was not what I wanted, he was very disappointed, I was disappointed, I thought he would be happy, proud of me, but I was wrong. ”

Chen Senran was still silent, he knew that he didn't need to speak, he just needed to find someone to talk to.

"During the years of my exile and wandering, I thought a lot, I thought about what the teacher didn't like about me, what I did wrong, I didn't figure it out, I was angry. I think he abandoned me, obviously he adopted me back then, gave me everything, I regarded him as a father, but he didn't want me anymore, I was like an abandoned cat. Pretty stupid idea, right? He pressed his head as if he was laughing at his stupidity, "It's stupid, and now that I think about it, he has always been, he loves me, like a son, but...... I was so stupid that I ...... later"

"Then I came back here with my people. I don't actually want revenge, I just want him to see, what I did is not wrong, I want to prove to him that I can, but ......" and sighed, with deep helplessness. "He thought I was here for revenge, and he stood in the doorway. Having cast away his sword at his feet, he said to me, "Come, my child." ”

"Come back......"

"Come back......"

"Come back......"

"Come back......"

The catastrophe was repeated several times in a row, as if enchanted.

"But......" he roared suddenly. I can't come back, everything has changed. ”

There was a moment of silence in the courtyard, the silence of the night, the anger of the night, and some past that could never be returned.

"Actually. For a moment, I was shaken. "So I followed him here, right here. ”

Right here, this courtyard full of cherry blossoms.

Many years ago, there was an old guru who sat here with his misguided disciple and tried to persuade that disciple to return to the right path, when he might have boiled a pot of tea and said to his disciple, "Come back."

"Do you know my name? Tribulation, do you know what the word "robbery" means? He asked, but immediately replied to himself, "Robbery, in the ancient Ionian language, means great calamity, calamity, and my teacher told me that he gave me this name because when he saw me for the first time, he knew that I was a doom in his life, and that he might one day die at my hands." ”

"You really killed him, too." Chen Senran finally spoke.

"Yes, I killed him because he wanted me to destroy that box, he wanted me to return to the so-called equilibrium, and he felt that I was going the wrong way." Zhai suddenly laughed when he said this, "Are you going astray? That's what he said to me at the time, "Misdirection, Tribulation, come back, don't go further and further down this path!! ”

Many years ago, on that bloody afternoon, the old mentor poured a cup of tea for his disciple, and roared like a lion with angry eyes.

"Astray." He bit almost word by word, "The so-called misguided path is just a road that is a little more difficult to take." ”

No one knew what was going on in the courtyard that afternoon when only Zai and his mentor were there.

It is known as the Tao of the Devil, except that, after a cry of pain, he killed his own teacher, the man who had raised him for more than ten years and taught him everything.

Perhaps, when the knife in his hand pierced that old heart, he was also sad.

"The cherry blossoms are about to bloom." He said so again after the robbery.

The cherry blossoms, the cherry blossoms here, are probably stained with the blood of the year, so they will bloom very brightly.

"Now, then, what shall I call you? Robber Master? Or ......" Chen Senran suddenly asked an inexplicable question.

"You can call me a calamity, for I am both a calamity and a ...... Lord of the Void Shadows. ”

When the early morning sun shines on the makeshift camp of the Equilibrium Sect.

Chen Senran walked out of his tent and stretched.

It's a nice day and everything smells so good.

After breakfast, Irelia interrogated the Noxian messenger once more.

After going through the necessary cutscenes, Irelia finally offered to leave.

She now needs to hurry back to the rebel camp and report the news to Karma while Karma makes a final decision.

"So, Miss Irelia, I hope I have good news." Kennan's childish voice sounded so steady and unpredictable at the moment.

"I hope so, too, after all, Ionia, the Ionia of all of us." Irelia nodded, and with a wave of her whip, she headed off into the distance.

As for Chen Senran, he followed Irelia and pulled his horse forward, but when he was about to leave, he glanced at the direction of the valley intentionally or unintentionally.

The cherry blossoms are about to bloom.

————————————

Valley.

The Shadow Knights' station.

In the Higashijima Garden, which is full of cherry blossoms.

He sat in the middle of the courtyard, a pot of tea boiling in front of him.

A bird flew into the yard and came to rest on a branch.

On the branches, the cherry blossoms finally bloomed.

It's open, so gorgeous as blood. (To be continued......)

PS: First update.

I asked for a monthly pass, but no one spoke in the book review area, and I felt lonely about what I wrote.
