Chapter 760 [Chapter 4] 183
Even though she said so, she didn't seem to be really surprised, turned her feet, walked slowly down the corridor, and came to the courtyard.
Tsurumaru Kuninaga was wearing a pure white bathrobe, standing in the courtyard with folded hands, slightly raised his head to look at the new moon in the sky.Hearing the sound of the Goddess's fine footsteps gradually approaching, he did not appear as surly and defensive as she was on the first night when she came to this hommaru.
He just raised his head slightly, and his slender neck looked even more graceful from behind—if the pure white bathrobe was added, and he was bathed in the bright moonlight, the whole person seemed to be shrouded in a layer of silvery white halo The posture in it can indeed remind people of the beauty of the crane.
The Goddess came to stand beside him, and didn't look at him, but followed the direction of his gaze, and also looked at the new moon in the sky.
After a moment of silence, Tsurumaru Kuninaga chuckled.
"You, you are really a woman who likes to put on airs." He said with emotion.
The eyebrows of the female judge moved slightly, and then she maintained a calm demeanor.
She didn't respond.
"...A look of being brave who likes to take care of everything by himself and doesn't rely on others-ah~ah, maybe it's because of this that you can use this method to attract the attention of others~" Tsurumaru Kuni With a somewhat nasty smile on Yong's face, he continued to speak casually.
Hearing this comment, the female examiner seemed a little surprised for a moment.She raised her eyebrows, still looking at the new moon in the night sky, and replied half-jokingly: "Uh...thank you for the compliment?"
Tsurumaru Kunei sighed.
"This kind of character is really not cute at all." He said.
The female examiner burst out laughing.
"Let's face it." She responded in a nonchalant tone she had never used before in front of Tsurumaru Kuninaga.
Tsurumaru Kuninaga: "..."
The female judge put her hands behind her back, with a naughty look on her face.
"Temporarily, bear with me a little longer~" Her voice was as light as the water droplets splashed by a small stream winding and jumping down from the mountain.
Tsurumaru Kuninaga didn't smile.
"Temporary?" He twisted his lips, repeating the word playfully—and bitterly.
"'Temporary' until when?" He asked coldly.
The female judge didn't seem to hear the coldness in his tone.
"Ah, of course it's up to—"
Before she could finish speaking, Tsurumaru Kuninaga interrupted her slightly rudely.
"... until this time tomorrow, right?"
The female judge: "...!!"
She happened to open her mouth to continue, but after hearing this sentence, her lips trembled slightly, and she swallowed the next words.
Tsurumaru Kuninaga sneered.
"No, maybe we don't have to wait until this time tomorrow," he said sarcastically.
"Who gave you such blind and reckless courage, making you think that as a judge of God, you can do whatever you want?" His cold voice sounded a little aggressive.
Maybe, he wasn't really talking to her, but through her, talking to someone in his memory?
The female judge opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she tried her best to hold back, pulled the corners of her lips, and showed a slightly teasing smile again.
"Uh...Liang Jingru?" She asked tentatively.
Tsurumaru Kuninaga suddenly turned his face, his face full of smog.
"Who is that?!"
His clear and youthful voice sank due to anger, showing an inexplicable sense of oppression.The attitude of the Goddess seems to have finally angered him—or, from the very beginning, her existence was enough to anger him?
The female examiner directly acknowledged the anger, and touched her nose embarrassingly.
"No, no one..." She forced a smile, as if she was puzzled by the fact that Tsurumaru Kuninaga didn't get mad at her, she forcibly changed the subject with a little embarrassment.
"No, that... So, are you here to talk to me about this...?" She stretched out her hand and compared herself, "Talk about how annoying I am...?"
Tsurumaru Kuninaga's golden eyes fell on her face, and after a while, he looked away.
"Of course not." He replied firmly.
The female examiner sneered. "But... you appear here in the middle of the night, of course there is a reason...?"
Tsurumaru Kuninaga took a deep breath as if he couldn't bear it.
"I heard that you were urgently summoned by the Government of Time, and you will go to accept an important task tomorrow morning." He said succinctly.
The female judge thought for a while and nodded. "Well, there is such a thing."
That nonchalant look was really annoying.Tsurumaru Kuninaga had to take another deep breath.
"Since it's an important mission... have you decided who to bring out?" he asked.
The Goddess looked a little surprised.She glanced sideways at the other kanban man in the original work, thought about it, and finally shook her head.
"No, no." She said, "Maybe there are just a few people... Well, maybe I should listen to the mission before deciding?"
This perfunctory attitude did not satisfy Tsurumaru Kuninaga.He frowned slightly, and asked abruptly: "...Haven't you already made a decision?!"
The female appraiser paused for a moment, slowly moved her neck, turned her head that was tilted mischievously just now, and straightened her back.
Tsurumaru Kuninaga sneered.
"Let's stop playing around," he said. "I can probably guess what you're going to do tomorrow."
The female interrogator: "...Oh."
Her dry response was clearly not what Tsurumaru Kuninaga wanted to hear.
"I'll give you a suggestion," his tone suddenly sank a bit, sounding almost rough.
"Even if you don't consider the opinion of the person from the Sanjo family when making a decision, at least inform him before you act."
The breath of the female Goddess froze slightly.After a while, she spoke slowly.
"……why?"
Tsurumaru Kuninaga grinned -- but there was no smile in his eyes.
"Because...don't make that guy seriously angry, it might be a big shock?" He resumed his usual half-joking tone.
The female judge lowered her eyes and stared at a clump of flowers and trees in front of her.Her eyes flickered, as if she was thinking about something; after about a minute, she suddenly burst out laughing.
"Maybe you don't know, he killed me once before," she replied with a smile, "That's the worst~"
Tsurumaru Kuninaga subconsciously sucked in a breath.When he saw the expression on her profile, he realized she wasn't lying.
...So, what is the Sanjo family going to do?Did he realize that he admired her after killing this woman? !
Also, how big is this woman's life!Not only did he escape from one of the five swords in the world, but he also turned into his master as if nothing had happened, and nonchalantly said what happened before as a joke——
Tsurumaru Kuninaga thought for a while, and thought of the other members of the Sanjo family: Yanrong, Jinjian, Ishikirimaru, Kohomaru... Which one seems to be less elusive than the five swords under heaven? !
No, it's better to say that that one is like an outlier in the Sanjo family.The other members of the Santiao family that he thought of were all honest, serious, steady and a bit simple in character.Compared with the Five Swords of the World from the Santiao family, they are simply two completely different extremes.
...This kind of knife, not—or, this kind of person—is admired by people, it should have her value, right?
Tsurumaru Kuninaga slowly flattened his frowning brows.
"...Then, let's put it another way." He said coldly.
"Because if you disappear without authorization, it's very unfair to others - those who are not ready to say goodbye to you, are you going to leave them behind without authorization?"
Female examiner:! ?
These words seemed to really hit her heart.She was shocked, and immediately raised her eyes to look at Tsurumaru Kuninaga.
Gone was the former attitude of joking to hide something genuinely deep, of abundance.
Tsurumaru Kuninaga watched her change coldly, and finally felt a little bit satisfied.
"...Ah, that's right, she was like this at the beginning." He said lightly.
After going through a long time, even though he didn't want to admit it, the feeling that was more painful than being forgotten and being smashed by a knife at the beginning is lessening; to this day, when he brought up the matter of that person again, he originally thought that he would not even speak words. Can't get organized.
However, when some sentences about her came out of his mouth, they were surprisingly smooth.Only then did he realize that although it was still impossible to let go, his own time would always be stuck on the day she left; however, compared to before, he was able to face up to [that important person has already left, and may never come back] That fact too.
Tsurumaru Kununaga raised the corners of his lips and sighed with a smile.
"I said it was fine, and then just disappeared..."
He also turned his face slightly, and turned his gaze to the successor beside her who had inherited her Honmaru and had actually taken her Honmaru for his own use.
Time is passing, and people's hearts are changing.This is a fact that has remained unchanged for thousands of years.
...However, no matter what, the new female judge in front of me has never tried to attack him in such a long time since inheriting the main pill. , or summon a new "Tsuramaru Kuninaga" from other swords who will obey her and recognize her as the master—then, at the end of the day, let him also repay this small favor a little bit. Be kind.
He finally said, "I don't care what you're going to do tomorrow."
When the female judge heard this, a wry smile appeared on her face.
Tsurumaru Kuninaga continued: "...But, I think someone would care."
Female examiner: "...Huh?"
Tsurumaru Kuninaga: "Since you are so good at speaking nicely, let's talk nicely now."
The female interrogator was stunned for a moment, then suddenly burst out laughing.
"...Thank you for your advice." She replied in a particularly frank tone.
"...However, I really didn't expect this kind of advice to come from you."
Tsurumaru Kuninaga slightly arched his eyebrows.
"Life always needs a little scare, doesn't it." He said lightly.
"...And, after all, this is still her Honmaru. I want to take care of everything here for her—"
Before the female judge showed a knowing smile, he added this sentence mercilessly.
"So, I will watch you carefully."
The smile on the female judge's face faded, she was silent for a moment, then nodded slightly.
"Then, please," she said.
Tsurumaru Kunei raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"...Why, are you so unconfident?" He asked rhetorically.
"...tomorrow."
The Goddess sighed silently, raised her head slightly, and looked at the new moon in the night sky.
"Not without confidence..." she said.
"If it's really desperate time, if you leave everything and escape, it shouldn't be impossible..."
Tsurumaru Kununaga's eyes widened in surprise.
Ho, dare to say it.he thinks.
And, she wasn't done yet.
"...However, if you want to go with everyone, the situation will become 'you can't abandon your companions at any time'....So, in order to achieve this goal, I have to work hard." She said with a smile.
Tsurumaru Kuninaga let out a long breath.
"...You still, how dare you say it." There was a hint of a smile in his voice.
