Chapter 238: I Want to See Her Again
"Anson Deer, I have to go first." Asuka Uesugi's eyes were filled with unease.
"Let's go."
"Use props, Mythic Remnants."
The game command fell, and the key in her palm gradually faded, and a gray mist rushed out of the cracked key, like a beast engulfing her body in one gulp.
Anson Deer also knew that it would be a good time, so he reached out of his pocket, grasped the key that bloomed with red light, and read the same command.
After seeing that Asuka Uesugi and Anson Deer both used the Mythical Key to leave, Yuri did not hesitate and directly used the Key Remnant and dissipated into the classroom in the same way.
There was a brief dead silence that hung over the classroom.
The others were powerless, as they had been assigned to another Mythic Carrier in the crusade at the beginning, so they didn't have the Mythic Remnants on Surtr's side.
At this time, you can only wait for good news.

..................
Five years ago, in Tokyo, a mahogany corridor in the Uesugi Mansion.
Ruri Kamiyo breathed a long sigh of relief, stretched out her hand, which was half covered by her wide sleeves, and gently pushed open the shoji door to the right, entering a room littered with manga and skirts.
There was no one on the tatami mats, and there was no one on the bed.
She moved her eyes, and soon saw Asuka Uesugi cowering in the corner.
"Miss, you don't seem to be very happy...... "Ruri Kamiyo held the handle of the knife and raised her eyebrows, "Isn't it, someone in the school is bullying you?" β
"Nope."
"No, there should be, right?"
"No is nothing!"
"Please name him." Kamidai Ruri's voice was a little colder.
"What are you going to do, take a wooden knife and knock someone on the head like you did before?!"
"Hmm."
"I'll be reported, they'll say I'm a princess of the underworld, and then I'll have to transfer schools!"
"I'm sorry, Miss."
"Compared to this ......"
"What's wrong?"
"Lately, you seem to be talking a lot."
"Really? Maybe it's because of staying with the eldest lady. β
"You've become, there's some love to laugh."
"I'll admit it."
"Well, that's good, it's not good to be as cold as before."
"Because the eldest lady said it......," Ruri Kamidai whispered, "I hope I smile more, and I hope I'll be more cheerful." β
"Oh, is it all because of my orders?"
"No, I'm happy, it's not an order...... Rather, it was the advice of the young lady. β
"That's good." Asuka breathed a sigh of relief, "I'm really worried that you're forcibly distorting your personality or something for me, so I'll be unhappy, so I must be myself." β
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
The downpour was sprinkled, and at the end of London, every step of the girl was like walking on thin ice.
"Miss is ......"
The blood-colored half of the body of the god was exposed to the cold rain curtain in the scorched black.
"She's ......"
She slowly raised her eyes and raised her sword to face the giant shadow covered in flames.
"The first person who didn't use me as a tool......"
Even the torrential rain like a waterfall was directly dispersed into steam the moment it touched Surtr, and not a single drop of rain could touch this huge divine body.
"I must, I have to go back to her......"
Ruri Kamiyo muttered to herself as if in prayer, her messy hair dipped down from the rain.
"Because I still want ......"
The mutilated half of her face was dripping with rain, but the corners of her cracked and bleeding mouth were raised high, confident but ugly.
"See her again."
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
Four years ago, the Uesugi Mansion.
Ruri Kamiyo lowered the handle of her knife on the floor of the corridor and gently pulled open the shoji door, almost instinctively moving her gaze to the corner of the room.
"Miss, when you're really unhappy, you like to squat in that corner." She smiled helplessly.
"Xiao Liuli, they all say I'm a monster, no one wants to deal with me, do I have to transfer again?"
Asuka Uesugi huddled in the shadows in the corner of the room with a bear pillow.
"How so? It's just too much for these people. Kamidai Ruri comforted, "I've been by the eldest lady's side for the longest time, and I know you better than anyone else, you are simply the gentlest person I've ever met." β
Uesugi Asuka was silent for a long time and said:
"Xiao Liuli, don't be reckless to find their business."
"But ......"
"Hey, you're just too straight, if only you could be a little more sleek."
"I just don't want to be said like this by the eldest lady." Ruri Kamiyo sighed, "But I'll try to listen to your advice." β
"Do you know, when the people in my class saw you pick me up from school, they all said that you were a nervous and carried a knife handle every day!"
"I don't care."
"But I care, I had a fight with them."
"I see...... Kamidai Ruri was stunned, "The reason for being isolated this time is actually because of me?" β
"It's not just ......" Asuka shook her head, "They found rumors that I was at my old school and showed a dragon's tail or something during swimming lessons, and then it was the same as before." β
"But it's not Mademoiselle's fault."
"I said......" Asuka whispered, "Little Ruri, I've always wanted to ask, why don't you go to school?" β
"I'm Miss's entourage, how do I have time to go to school? Taking care of your personal safety is my biggest task. β
"Is it possible that if I leave, you can go to school?"
"What?"
"I secretly heard my dad talking to those people in the family, and he said that if I leave Japan, then you can't follow me anymore, and my dad agreed."
Kamiyo Ruri's face was surprised and speechless.
"I'm going to go to high school next year because I skipped a grade." Asuka said again.
ββ¦β¦ Congratulations, Miss. β
"Then, I plan to go to the United States to go to high school, go alone, and when I leave Japan, Xiao Liuli will be free, and you don't need to be by my side every day."
"In fact, for me, true freedom is to be there for you."
"No, that's because you've only been with me, that's why you feel that way." Asuka said, "Little Ruri, you're sure to find something you like." β
"Ms. Asuka...... You're really strong, you've never relied on me, and even when you're isolated, ostracized, and miserable, you'll force yourself to laugh. Kamidai Ruri lowered her eyes and whispered:
"Although it seems that I am protecting Miss, but in fact, I was saved by Miss Asuka, if it weren't for you, I might have already regarded myself as a puppet of the family, and lived my life as a tool in peace."
"Please, I'm not as good as you say, okay?" Asuka Uesugi slowly stood up, took a deep breath, and patted her cheek, "...... I've decided! β
"What?"
"Even if you say that, I must go to the United States." Asuka threw the bear pillow on the bed and said fiercely, "When I go to high school, I will go to the United States to study, and then you will also have a good high school in Japan." β
"Miss, can you do it alone?"
"I can do it alone!" Asuka crossed her waist and snorted and said, "I've already decided, absolutely not dependent on anyone!" Daddy too, Xiao Liuli, you too. β
"Hehe......" Kamidai Ruri hugged the handle of the knife and smiled lightly.
"What are you laughing at, I'm serious!" Asuka is annoyed.
"I'm just sighing, I really have the style of a young lady."
"Really?" Asuka lay down on the bed in a large figure.
"Also, I'll try to be who Miss wants me to be." Kamiyo Ruri said, "At least I love to laugh a little, I'm always lifeless, but I can't get along with you, Miss, and besides, Miss, you're too straightforward, maybe you need a more sleek person to accompany you and help you deal with a series of things." β
"Huh? There's no need for this, I'm just mentioning it casually. β
"No matter what, I support whatever decision the eldest lady makes, but as long as you need me, I will come to you."
"It's so numb!" Asuka's face turned red, "Compared to this, why don't you change me to your side." β
"Really?" Ruri Kamiyo smiled at her.
"I'll come, after all, I've been taken care of by you for so long, and when I become the head of the family, I'll take you around the world and help you get rid of the shackles of the family thoroughly."
"Okay, I'll wait for you."
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
The world was gray with a torrential rain, and it was for this reason that the crimson shadow standing in the middle of London was so dazzling, like a god who judged the world.
The Yan Sword, which was enough to open the world, slashed down, and the right foot of the god generation Ruri stepped out of a spider web-like pit on the ground, and the whole person burst out to the side, passing by the tip of the Yan Sword.
"I can't die here......"
Ruri's voice was hoarse and muddy, and her throat was so dry that she couldn't make a sound, as if it was clogged with coke.
"I haven't fulfilled my promise ......"
Kamidai Ruri dragged her scarred body, stumbled and moved forward.
"Miss, she needs me ......"
Her sword was filled with thousands of cherry blossoms, and the petals swayed wildly in the torrential rain.
["Peerless Sakura Knife"'s Sequence Skill - Falling Sakura Vientiane Slash (Turns all the body and blade into cherry blossoms, merges into one, and sends a forward stab) (The lower the user's health, the higher the damage value of the move)]
"I really want to see her again......"
She screamed in the rain, unable to tell the difference between tears and rain.
"Say I miss her so much."
Ruri Kamiyo raised the sword with her only remaining right arm and aimed the tip of the knife at Surtr.
"Say I don't want to leave her."
Every inch of her flesh and blood, and every inch of the sword's cold iron were scattered at the same time, and the two converged into a sea of cherry blossoms in the air, rushing towards Surtr like moths to a fire.
............
............
Two months ago, Kabukicho, Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo, Japan.
"You've really changed a lot, little Liuli."
"So are you, miss." Kamidai Ruri put away the fan and looked at Asuka with beautiful eyes.
Asugi Uesugi hugged her shoulders and stared at her with her eyes: "In that copy of Disney, you stabbed me when you met, and I wondered if it was you." β
"I'm really sorry, that knife was just for the fastest way to die for Miss."
"Hey, then I should thank you, it wasn't very painful at the time." Asuka said helplessly, "So why are you staying in the law enforcement team?" β
"I received an order from my family to go deep into the law enforcement team to consolidate power, and in the original Disney copy, I just had to talk to them."
After a pause, Kamidai Ruri smiled slightly: "Well, I can't always stand in their camp, and I keep speaking for the eldest lady, isn't this contrary to the 'tactfulness' that the young lady wants me to learn." β
"I really just said casually, 'I want you to be smooth,' and I didn't expect you to do it."
"After all, people change."
"But it's become too much!" Uesugi Asuka raised her eyes and looked at Ruri Kamiyo dissatisfied.
"But I also confirmed one thing, Miss is still the same as before, when she is unhappy, she likes to find a corner and shrink like a kitten."
Ruri Kamiyo smiled, she was referring to the fact that it was naturally a Disney copy At that time, Asuka shrank to the corner of the corridor after losing the first battle, and at that time, it was basically up to Anson Deer to get her morale back.
"You guy!" Asuka raised her forehead and sighed, "Really, I'm so angry that I want to break up with you." β
"I'm so sorry, Miss."
Ruri Kamiyo said as she suddenly smiled and handed the hilt to Asuka.
They had agreed that whenever they quarreled, as long as one person reached out their hand, they would immediately settle after shaking hands, and if they were so awkward that they couldn't reach out, they would use the handle of a knife instead.
Uesugi Asuka raised the corners of her mouth, shook the handle of Kamiyo Ruri with her hand, and shook it vigorously.
"We reconciled?"
"Yes, reconciled." Uesugi Asuka whispered.
"The reason why I said that you have changed, Miss, is because you say that you absolutely do not want to rely on anyone, and Miss who left Japan and went to the United States alone has also begun to have people to rely on."
"Huh?"
"Anson Lu, he's the first person who can make Miss so dependent, right?"
"Why!" Asuka blushed, "That guy is stupid!" It's like a split personality, one will be cold and the other will be hot, who will not want to rely on him! β
"So, does our original agreement still count?"
"Huh? Isn't this looking at you? β
"I don't think you need me anymore, Miss, because Anson Deer is by your side."
"What does this have to do with him!" Asuka said angrily: "Listen to me, when I become the head of the Uesugi family in the future, I will come to you, and we will go on a trip together." β
Ruri Kamiyo was stunned for a long time and smiled softly at her.
"Okay, that's a deal."
.............

London's Big Ben could no longer mourn, its body had been run over by Surtr, and even the scum was no longer there in the sharp heat.
At this moment, directly in front of Surtr, thousands of petals trembled in the torrential rain, and they surged towards Surter like a cherry-colored sea, shuttling through Surtr's body.
"Roarββ!!!
The health bar on the top of Surtr's head dropped dramatically, but despite this, it maintained more than seventy percent health.
The sea of cherry blossoms vanished, and Ruri Kamiyo's figure appeared behind Surtr, and she fell to her knees weakly, her body burning with scorching fire.
Every inch of skin cracked in the flames, bursting with blood.
"Miss Asuka, I'm going to miss my appointment......" Ruri Kamiyo stabbed the sword into the ground, forcing herself to prevent herself from falling completely.
In the next moment, Surtr slowly moved past the unshakable body, raised a sword of fire that was enough to evaporate the rain and clouds, and vibrated out in a rage.
"It would be nice if people had a next life."
She fell to her knees, the sword used to support her body burst open at this moment, piercing deep into her spine.
"Wherever you go, I'm sure to ...... will not leave you. β
Before being engulfed in the monstrous flames, in her cloudy eyes, she seemed to be standing on the empty corridor, and the girl gently pulled the corners of her mouth with her hand, and whispered to her:
"Laugh a little, Ruri Kamidai."
The firelight came from the surface, enveloping every corner of her body, and the blackened face of the god of Ruri was so hideous, so unbearable, but with a shallow smile.
"I'm laughing, Miss."
