"The weeping child is the purest cloud that floats through the top of the mountain, and when the pollution falls, Toyojin's sleeping subconscious divides him."

In front of Aoi Keisuke is a mist-shrouded lake, and on the shores of the lake, there are several natural stone benches.

At this time, a woman in green clothes was sitting on the stone bench, talking with her back to him.

"Welcome, Keisuke Ao."

Aoi Keisuke looked around and didn't answer, this place was no longer in the dream realm, after he learned the truth of the dream in advance, he had already obtained the qualification to clear the customs, so he returned to the pure realm and came to the deeper part of the dream world.

But the question is - in the pure domain of Daze Mountain, is there still a place that has not been infected by the curse?

"Who are you?"

Keisuke Aoi walked forward and came to the woman's side.

The woman's face is covered with a wooden mask, drawing the spring scene of the past.

"I'm the fastest wind in the mountains, leaving the last consciousness in the collapse, you can call me 'Maple Leaf'."

The sound of the maple leaves is light and warm, like a spring flowing down in spring, reminiscent of small fish roaming in the transparent water.

She bowed her head to Keisuke Ao, smiled gently, and invited him to sit down.

"It was the mountain that went crazy, and in the end took the initiative to carry everything, and his name was 'Daze'."

Osawa, Maple Leaf, and Weeko are all part of the god Toyotsu, and the purest spirituality that this mountain can gather is all condensed in that hidden lake.

"I see." Keisuke Aoi examined the maple leaf for a while, and finally sat down beside her, and said to himself, "Toyotsu God himself took the initiative to divide his consciousness into the three parts of you, no wonder his resistance to pollution is so weak. ”

"Yes, He was so lonely." Maple also nodded in acknowledgement.

"And that's why he fell into a deep sleep?" Keisuke Aoi asked with interest.

"Not really."

Maple denied Keisuke's speculation, and instead said a word that the Demon King had never heard at all, and she asked rhetorically, "Do you know? ”

"That's ...... What? ”

"You're so powerful, and you don't know anything about it?" Maple Leaf also looked very surprised.

Aokeisuke spread his hands.

"The blood of the gods is not the blood that the gods themselves have cultivated, but the blood that must be supported when they want to become gods."

Seeing this, Maple Leaf did not shy away from telling him about the secrets that only belonged to the gods: "At that time, Toyojin accidentally got the second drop of god's blood. ”

Keisuke Aoi understood what she was trying to convey and continued to ask, "So, what exactly is the blood of the gods?" ”

"I don't know."

Maple Leaf shook his head: "All I can understand is the meaning of 'God's Blood'. ”

Qing Keisuke frowned when he heard this, but still motioned for Maple Leaf to continue.

"The blood of the gods is one of the most important cores of the gods, and the more blood there is, the stronger the power and the more revered the gods.

But instead of absorbing this blood, Toyotsu wanted to use it to recreate a god......

From me, Osawa, and Weeko. ”

This is the truth that the god of Toyotsu fell into a deep sleep.

The calamity that was finally brewed because of a drop of god's blood was narrated in the mouth of Maple Leaf, so that it seemed a little absurd.

At the same time, an incomparably strong desire to explore hits Keisuke's heart, and the secrecy represented by the blood of the gods holds him firmly - he is already extremely close to the true part of this world!

"There is no doubt that Toyotsu has failed.

He even created a disaster with his own hands. ”

When Maple Leaf said his conclusion, he didn't have any emotion, and he was surprisingly indifferent.

"After the destruction, Mt. Osawa was explored twice, and the corpses of Toyotsu and the blood of the gods were all plundered, of course...... Just a drop of it.

The last drop of blood was placed in the deepest part of the Pure Domain, supporting the internal forest.

They thought they had robbed them all, and it was because the Pure Domain was refusing to visit that I was able to exist until now. ”

The maple leaves got up, floated into the lake, stepped lightly on the top of the lake, and the sleeves of the hands flew up, dancing like the wind.

"Keisuke Ao, you were chosen by Osawa.

So, please put an end to this. ”

"However, since there is still the blood of the gods in the pure domain, why don't you become a god yourself and sweep it all up?"

Maple Leaf, which was born from the god Toyotsu, obviously has this qualification.

The maple leaves stopped dancing, the mask on his face suddenly became "sad", and the dripping rain wet the spring scene, leaving the petals that were knocked off all over the ground.

She said slowly, "What dead person would be willing to kiss the knife that killed him?" ”

The last dance of the maple leaf began, and the cyan cold robe became a fiery red, and she sang:

"When the wind is no longer light,

When the cloud is no longer free,

When the mountains are no longer thick,

The tragedy has already begun,

The spring glory of the past,

Never again!

Never again! ”

Eventually, she turned into a few fiery maple leaves, flew into the sky, and vanished.

Keisuke Aoi paused for a long time, thinking back to the gesture of the maple leaves dancing, and suddenly, he thought of Yui Kamihata who was far away in Tokyo.

Who is better in the dance between the two?

……

Fujiko Hoshino and Sonoko Ozawa finally escaped from Ozawa Village, gasping violently, and their panic made them consume more of their physical strength.

In particular, Fujiko Hoshino has been nervous, and now she is getting more and more tired.

But she knows the area swept by the flood and knows that now is not the time to rest, and no matter how much power the weeping child can burst out and how long it delays, she still believes in Keisuke Ao's warning that "everything is irreparable".

"Garden, keep running, don't stop."

"But...... But ......"

After a few breaths, the viscous rainstorm poured down, and the dark mountain forest looked more and more strange and terrifying.

"Run!"

Fujiko Hoshino took out a waterproof flashlight from her bag and pulled Sonoko Ozawa towards the mountains and forests.

But the flashlight of this era only illuminates a few meters at most, and after the rain, they can only tell whether the place under their feet is safe.

Hoshino and Sonoko Ozawa fell several times in quick succession before finally finding the trick to advance through the muddy mountains.

"Let's go around and then walk back to the village down the mountain."

Hoshino judged that it was unrealistic to run in a straight line to run to safety, and she and Sonoko Ozawa did not have that ability, and they could only use the groomed mountain road to leave.

The only thing that made her feel relieved was that although Ozawa Sonoko was tired and scared, she never complained about herself.

"The flash flood is coming soon, we have to run quickly."

"Are we going to die?"

"No!"

Hoshino said categorically, "I'll take you away!" ”

They trudged through the darkness, their clothes soaked by the rain and torn by the branches, and their bodies covered in mud and scars, but they never let go of their hands.

Finally, they are back on the way down the mountain, and they can speed up!

At this moment, in the darkness in the distance, a violent roar was heard—

Lake Toyotsu, which has an amazing amount of water, has completely burst its embankment!

Wails and screams of countless curses mingled with calamity that eroded the roots of the mountain.

The mud carried the uprooted tree and poured downward.

"Who?"

"Brother?"

"Yes...... You guys? ”

The three Ozawa siblings, as well as a few young men who were following Takuto Ozawa, took a photo on the mountain road—they were also preparing to escape down the mountain.

"Are you alright?" Takuto Ozawa's expression of surprise was slightly distorted.

"Get out of here!"

Hoshino didn't hesitate to take out the last fish-slaughtering knife in his leather bag, and with an arrow step, he waved it indiscriminately, forcing several people away, and he didn't plan to go with them at all.

- These are all of them.

Behind all, the flood engulfs everyone equally, embraces all sins equally, and destroys them.

"Brother...... What to do? ”

"He's not family." At this moment, Fujiko Hoshino returned to her former coldness.

She pulled Ozawa Yuanzi and stubbornly ran downward, like two fragile dandelions dodging the waves, about to be swallowed up in a raging storm.

"Boom—"

The two men fell in a violent shock, and looking back, it was a frenzy that swept everything.

"Smoked!"

Sonoko Ozawa shouted in despair.

"Don't be afraid!"

At the final moment, Sonoko Ozawa tried to get in front of Hoshino, but fell hard again.

Then, a white umbrella swayed from the sky and fell into the hands of Fujiko Hoshino.

"Boom ——!"

The bright white light suddenly lit up.

As a result, the mighty torrent instantly stood still in front of her.

This is the last gift of the weeping son.

Some people died, but not completely......
