Chapter 12

Ye Dou didn't know if he was deliberately dragging it out or if it was really difficult. He had been carving a statue for several days but still couldn't finish it. During this period, he had been eating and drinking at Honmaru. He was lucky enough to see Honmaru's first expedition since Ye took over.

Leaf was arranging the candidates for the expedition. Night Fight was lying in the corridor with snacks and tea in front of him. He looked like he was enjoying a good show.

"Captain Komusubi, team members Tsuru Maru, Guoyong, Jiazhou Qingguang, Qie Hasebe, Kendo, Fujiro, and Hillman Qie Guoguang. I'm counting on you this time."

After reading the name list, she went forward and put a guard on the hilt of Six Blades. Her spiritual power was sealed in the guard. If necessary, it could pull them back from the line of life and death.

"Don't force yourself. Compared to eliminating the Reverse March Army, your safety is more important to me."

"Master, don't worry."

Komusubi reached out and patted the head of God's Inquisitor. He promised her in a gentle and firm voice, "I won't let you down."

Every time she put a guard on, the sword in question would say something to her to show his determination. He was not afraid of death and wanted to kiss her again. However, he was slapped aside by Hasebe.

However, when it was Hillman Qie's turn, he stuffed half of his face into his collar.

Leaf didn't say anything and silently helped him put a guard on.

Yamamochi Kokuhiro didn't expect that she would send him out. It was impossible to say that he wasn't happy. However, this happiness was quickly destroyed by the invisible awkward atmosphere between the two of them.

She … didn't like him. Because he was an imitation … No, it was because he wasn't likable enough.

They didn't have Komusubi's steadiness, Jiazhou Qingguang's understanding, Hasebe's absolute dominance, Kendo and Fujiro's multitasking, or even the cuteness of the Five Tigers Retreat …

The moment her hand left the hilt of his knife, he immediately retreated to the corner furthest away from her. Leaf took a deep breath and pulled out a piece of cloth from somewhere. With a swish, she pulled the knife back.

She helped him fix the cloth and then rubbed his soft short hair. "I'll wait here for you to come back."

"… Oh."

！！！

Oh!

I will come back safely!!!

After sending off the group of people, Leaf brought a cup of tea and sat beside Night Fight. She did not urge him to work.

Someone had tied a wind chime on the eaves. When the wind blew, the sound of the wind chime was very pleasant to the ears.

Night Fight suddenly sat up and patted the dessert crumbs on his chest. He then crossed his legs and looked at Leaf. "Are you really going to do it yourself?"

Delta Ophiuchi took a shawl and put it on him. She wore a white kimono with red stripes and a red shawl. She looked gentle and charming.

He sat behind her and squinted at the back of her white and delicate neck. It was as if with a little force, this person would disappear forever.

The swords were naturally unwilling to let her carry out her plan, but after all, she was the master and they were her servants. There were some words that their master did not want to hear or care about, so they could only swallow it back into their stomachs.

Virtuous servants might boldly advise for the master's safety, even if the consequence was that they would be abandoned by their master.

But they were just swords in human form. As swords, they would naturally do whatever their master said.

Ye Zi didn't notice the burning gaze behind her. She said coldly, "He's been bullied to this extent. Thirteen lives. I don't think it's enough to let him fill in only one.

Of course, I am not crazy to think that I can easily kill a god with my own strength. "

She held the tea and took a sip. After a satisfied sigh, she turned and said, "Night Fight -sama wants a shrine even in his dreams. Although I can't become your believer, if it's just a shrine, I can help you build one."

"Really!?"

"Of course not unconditional."

Night Fight looked at her for a while, then turned to look at his companion. His blue eyes were the same as Leaf's. There was a bit of struggle, but more than that, there was a desire.

Even if there were no believers, it would be good to have a shrine first!

But a shrine was not built by believers, and he felt that it was not perfect.

Xingyin knew what he was struggling with, but when she thought about how she had followed him through wind and rain to eat one meal after another, she immediately nodded without hesitation.

"If there is a shrine, at least people will know that there is a god like you. Every time after a mission, maybe someone will go to the shrine to worship. After a long time, maybe your wish will come true …" Little by little.

"Then it's a deal!"

It was easy to leave the decision to someone else. Night Fight, who was only responsible for using his sword and not his brain, was immediately happy when he heard his companion's answer. He rubbed his eyes and looked at Leaf with sparkling eyes. "What is your request?

Beat Buru half to death, and then you will stab him one last time?

Or you will stab him and then I will kill him? "

"No, no, you misunderstand."

She finished the tea in her cup, then put down the teacup and stood in the courtyard.

"Majesty Delta Ophiuchi, can I borrow your body?"

"Eh?"

"The Five Tigers Retreat and the others went to take a nap. Komusubi and the others will not be back soon. So, please, I promise that I will not die so easily."

Delta Ophiuchi could understand the desire and pleading in her eyes.

Just like how he was a sword but was shelved, she had the power but could only look at flowers and drink tea.

Delta Ophiuchi was moved.

So he went back to the house and took out his body, and solemnly put it in her hand.

"Please … use it well."

She had thought about it a long time ago. He could not refuse her, so he did not arrange for him to fight today.

Thinking of this, Delta Ophiuchi's depression finally dissipated.

He quietly sat alone in the corridor and looked down at her teacup. There was a half circle of light red on the edge. That was the color of the lipstick Jiazhou Qingguang gave her.

Who was the one seducing who?

One by one, they were all going to fall for her.

But just as Delta Ophiuchi was deep in thought, his body suddenly trembled, and he quickly turned his head to look at the courtyard.

When he held his body, he did not feel anything. At most, his sword moved according to his heart's desire. But when she held the sword in her hand, it felt different.

She was clearly caressing the blade, but Delta Ophiuchi felt as if his entire body was being touched.

This feeling … Delta Ophiuchi gritted his teeth, but in the end, he did not say anything.

"Night Fight -sama, can you give me some pointers?"

"Then I'll be your whetstone?"

As Ye Dou spoke, he sneered twice, but still obediently got up and walked to the opposite side of her.

"Companion!"

"Hey, hey ~ Night Fight -sama."

The god shouted, and the short-haired girl who was kneeling on the other side of the corridor turned into a ray of light — — and was caught by the god.

It was a short sword.

"Death God Fu?"

Leaf was somewhat surprised.

"It's a divine artifact ~ The souls of humans who have died are pitied by the gods and are allowed to accompany them and be used by them ~"

Companion seemed to like Leaf a lot. Every time she spoke to her, her voice would ripple with mysterious emotions.

"I can also temporarily enter my own body, my lord."

Delta Ophiuchi ran his fingers through his hair. To be honest, he was somewhat looking forward to it.

"No need."

"Stop talking nonsense, come!"

Night Fight seemed to be somewhat impatient. He arrogantly raised his head, looked at Leaf with his chin, and then licked the blade of his sword.

But as soon as the tip of his tongue touched the blade, Companion immediately transformed into a human. She screamed and kicked the god who took pity on her to the ground.

"Disgusting, disgusting!!!

Night Fight!

You're not human!!

Ahhhh, you licked my leg with your saliva!

How can there be such a disgusting god in this world!

I want to resign!!

If I continue to follow you, I'll be angered to death a second time sooner or later, you big idiot!!! "

Leaf raised her hand and half-covered her mouth, afraid that her smile would provoke a certain god.

"If it's my lord, I don't mind ~"

Delta Ophiuchi was still forcefully stealing the limelight.

Leaf was surprised to hear this. She felt that the Delta Ophiuchi in front of her was slightly different from the one she had learned about over the past few days.

Companion also stopped kicking Night Fight's leg. After secretly glancing at Leaf, she coughed twice, then stepped over Night Fight's body and stood to the side.

Night Fight was also well-behaved after being beaten up. He picked up the short sword again, feeling aggrieved, and fought with Leaf again.

Night Fight's sword was decisive and fatal. There was no hesitation in his movements. This was the result of his many years of experience on the battlefield and during assassinations.

Surprisingly, Leaf's methods were exactly the same as his, but compared to him, she was still a little immature.

However, she was only 16 years old.

Half an hour later, even though Night Fight deliberately helped her with her moves, the battle was still over.

Night Fight's sword was pointed at her back, where her heart was. Leaf was forced to kneel on the ground in a sorry state.

"You lost."

"Thank you for the lesson."

Delta Ophiuchi hurriedly went forward and half-carried her into the room. Then, he rummaged through the cabinets to find something to clean her wounds.

Although Leaf's strength was exhausted, she still had her spiritual power. After Delta Ophiuchi cleaned her wounds, she began to heal herself manually.

She still had to change her clothes later. If the group of knives saw her like this, she would be in trouble.

"Delta Ophiuchi, it's a little secret."

"… Yes."

Although Night Fight looked a little sorry, there was not a single wound on his body.

He sat on the threshold of the room with his back facing her, not looking at the girl's sorry state. This action received a look of approval from Companion.

"If you have to fight by yourself, it's not like you don't have a chance of winning."

"Although Buru's character is bad, he's not good at fighting. With your current level, you probably have a 20% chance of winning. The remaining 80% will be made up for by this Great God."

"As long as you make this Great God's shrine strong enough, it's fine."

Leaf smiled but did not say anything.

When did I say that this was all my strength?
