The rising sunlight dispelled the darkness in the room, revealing the boy and girl in the room. The girl was tightly wrapped in quilt and lay in the boy's arms, while the boy looked at the sleeping girl helplessly. The cherry blossom tree was blown by the morning breeze, and one or two cherry blossoms on the cherry blossom tree slowly fell.

Hey, I just want to sleep peacefully. Although I don’t need a quilt, you’re wrapped up like you’re going to survive the winter, and you’re still trying to stick something to people’s bodies! Liuyun complained silently in his heart.

"Ah woo~" Theresa let out a roar of a hungry dragon in her arms, and her cute appearance was as cute as Liu Yun's.

Today is the so-called festival, a festival that requires the selection of virgins for sacrifice. It is really dark.

"Teresa wake up."

"No~"

She gently shook Theresa in her arms and received such a confused answer.

He tapped Theresa's forehead lightly. If he was holding a girl like Yae Sakura or Himeko in his arms, Liuyun might not be able to control himself. But he was holding the petite Theresa in his arms, and Liu Yun could only feel as if he was holding his own sister.

In her sleep, Theresa furrowed her cute brows and reached out to swat away the boy's mischievous hand. Feeling that the people around her gave her enough sense of security, Theresa wanted to be nostalgic for a while. Because, Theresa hasn't been this stable for a long, long time.

"Teresa, how does the raspberry cake I just learned to make taste?" In her memory, Cecilia gently put the raspberry cake in her hand into her mouth. I can still remember the slightly bitter taste, but as a bitter melon juice lover, I liked it very much. Now, from the boy next to her, Theresa felt the same reassuring feeling as Cecilia.

……………………

"Get out, those two outsiders, get out of here."

"Miko, please hand over that white-haired witch. Otherwise, my daughter, Jing'er, will become a sacrifice."

The big man who took the lead in speaking in the group held the note in his hand tightly. Under the note was a bright red cherry blossom mark, indicating that the sacrifice this time was his daughter.

Tears fell from the corners of the man's eyes. For the daughter he only got when he was almost 40 years old, the man really didn't want to sacrifice his daughter to beg the gods for rain. In this regard, the white-haired virgin Theresa from outside is his last hope, as long as she can be sacrificed in place of his daughter.

"Miko-sama——"

"Miko-sama——"

"It's really noisy." The knocking on the door and the noisy voices of the group of people below reached Liu Yun's ears.

Putting aside the so-called gods, this is the method you decide for yourself: drawing lots. Now that you've been drawn, you can't bear to part with it. So when Yae Rin was chosen before, did you feel a little bit of regret in your heart, or did you have any conscience?

The answer is obvious, no. All they care about is whether the gods will send rain in time after sacrificing the virgin Yae Rin. As for Yae Rin who was sacrificed, it was just a tool used to beg the gods. Even if you grew up watching it, so what? It's not his own child.

This village really has a abnormal way of living.

bump--

The door to Liuyun's room was roughly pushed open by Yae Sakura. Yae Sakura had a look of confusion on her face, because she didn't know what to choose. Should he choose to obey his father's order and sacrifice Theresa in front of him to the gods, or should he choose to follow his heart and make a decision. But all he can do now is let the two people in front of him leave quickly.

"Liu Yun, take Theresa out of here quickly and out of the back door." Yes, there is no need to involve irrelevant people in matters in your village. If it were you...how would you make a decision? Karen.

"If we are allowed to leave, sister Yae Sakura, what are you going to do?" Being awakened by Yae Sakura's rough door opening, Theresa looked at the confused Yae Sakura worriedly.

With a smile on her face, Yae Sakura squatted down slightly and reached out to touch Theresa's cheek. Her voice was still as clear and ethereal as ever. "I'm fine. I will definitely stop this sacrifice, for Rin and myself. Before that, please leave here. This is dry food I prepared in a hurry. The taste may not be satisfactory, but forgive me. Sister."

"Xiao Yun, take Theresa and leave here." Yae Sakura stood up and looked at Liu Yun, calling out Liu Yun's most familiar title.

Hearing Yae Sakura's name, Liu Yun's consciousness flashed. My thoughts went back to the first time I met Yae Sakura a few months ago.

A young boy with his body covered in straps, a naive but somewhat naive miko. At that time, the shrine maiden called the boy the name Liuyun heard now. Now, with just this short sentence, the miko evoked the boy's inner memory.

"Yes, I understand." Taking the dry food from Yae Sakura's hand, Liu Yun took Theresa's hand and walked toward the back door pointed by Yae Sakura.

"Get her!"

"We can't let them escape!"

At the exit of the back door, Yae Sakura's father, the so-called God Lord, appeared at the back door with a group of villagers 'just in time', and the villagers who followed were also cursing. Seeing Theresa coming out of the back door is like the Africans holding on to their last hope and trying to sneak into Europe, and Theresa is their last hope. His eyes flashed red, and he stepped forward and reached out to catch Theresa.

But now there is no Judas, and Theresa, who does not have the strength of an S-class Valkyrie, can only hide behind Liu Yun. Fortunately, Liu Yun did not disappoint Theresa. He stretched out his hand and directly locked Du's hand.

If Kiana and the others paid attention to Liuyun's hands, they would definitely find that Liuyun's hands were not only slender, but also had whiter skin than their girls.

It was just such a pair of hands that were more delicate than a girl's but firmly locked the thug's hand, unable to move even an inch away from Theresa.

Dots of light lit up from the hand, and gradually the light turned into a soft light green, like a new bud, full of life.

Gradually, a magic circle with the same color as the light was condensed and appeared in Liuyun's hand. The round magic circle is engraved with line after line of sacred text, which is very mysteriously combined on the magic circle. A vine emerged from the magic circle, tied up the man who wanted to reach out to catch Theresa, and then took root in the ground.

This is the magic of Liuyun, its true name is the Heart of Wood. Under Liuyun's development, the compatibility between magic and the core of the Herrscher has become stronger and stronger, and the hardness of the plants produced is comparable to that of super alloy.

Fixing this person in this place, Liu Yun focused his eyes on the group of people in front of him.

"Is there anyone else coming up?"
