Chapter 926 The Herald
In the empty living room, Yuzurina was wearing a cherry blossom kimono on a black background, quietly kneeling on a round cushion.
The breeze rolled down a few cherry blossoms and drifted into the tatami mats inside the room, her light pink cherry blossom hairpin swirled a faint halo in the sunlight, she looked down at the radio in front of her, her eyes slowly closed ……
Creak-!
A tall figure dressed in white, opened the door and walked in.
Yuzuri Nai looked back and saw Yuzuri Takubai standing behind him, a gentle smile surfacing on that bloodstained face.
”Sister, I’m back.” He said softly.
”Why did you get all bloody again?” Yuzurina quickly stood up and walked over to him, tilting her head to look at him worriedly, “No injuries, right?”
”No, this is all the blood of corpse beasts, I’m very strong, they can’t hurt me.”
Yuzuri Takeru said with a smile.
”Take off your clothes, let me help you wash them.” Yuzuri Nai helped Yuzuri Takubai take off his outer clothes while frowning, “This is already the fourth one today……. If you keep going like this, even if you’re strong, your body will be worn out.”
”I’m not tired.” Yuzuri-Takubai gently took off her coat and laughed, “Wherever a monster appears, I’ll go there to defeat it and then save everyone …… Sister, I’m like Ultraman right now!”
Hearing this, Yuzuri-nai snorted out a laugh, “You’re such a big man, why are you still looking at such childish things.”
Yuzuri-Takubai was stunned, “But sister …… I’m only thirteen years old?”
Yuzuri Takeru’s hand paused in the air.
She stared blankly at the blood-stained white dress in her hand, like a statue, standing in place.
”Sister?” Yuzuri Takubai’s pure eyes looked at Yuzuri Nai suspiciously.
”Eh?” Yuzuri Nai returned to her senses and blinked her somewhat moist eyes hard, “Oh, I’ll go help you with your laundry ……”
She turned back and headed off in the other direction.
Boom-!
Just then, a vague boom came from the distant sky again.
Yuzurina’s body shuddered.
”…… Insert an urgent news item, a black beast has once again appeared in Tokyo City’s Edogawa District, two residential buildings have collapsed, and the scene is chaotic …… This time, will the God in White show up in time to save these people in peril? ”
The sound of the radio echoed in the empty living room, and the pair of siblings stood beside the sliding door of the cherry blossom-flecked courtyard, simultaneously falling into silence.
After a moment, Yuzuri Takubai still spoke, “Sister …… give me back my clothes, I’ll come back after killing this one, and you can wash it for me.
Otherwise …… it’s going to get dirty again.”
Yuzurinai’s small hand clutched the blood-stained white dress between her arms, no longer able to hold back the aggression in her heart, a single teardrop couldn’t be controlled as it slid down her cheeks, haloing on the white dress’s blood stains.
”Why ah?!” Yuzurina turned around violently, and with all her strength, she cried out, “Why are you taking all these burdens on yourself! Why should you be responsible for the deaths of these people? You’re only thirteen years old! Obviously the world hasn’t treated you well, why do you have to do this?
At thirteen, you should just stay at home and watch special effects movies and be a kid who fantasizes about being a hero all day long. ……
Only an idiot would really want to be a hero, right!”
Looking at the tearful Yuzuru Riina in front of him, Yuzuru Takeshiro froze in place.
After a long period of silence, he stepped away and walked over to the sobbing Yuzuru Riina, slowly squatting down, a warm smile emerging on his bloodstained face.
”I’m no fool, sister, we don’t have fools in the Yuzuri family.” He whispered.
”Brother Amamiya used to be the person in this world who hated this corrupt nation the most and wanted to destroy it completely …… But do you know why he is now in a desperate situation, searching for a way to keep this nation alive alone?”
Yurina shook her head blankly.
”What Brother Amamiya hates is the theocracy, the outdated ideas and society that have been eroded by the theocracy to the point of decay …… not the people.
Any human group is complex, some of them may be so sick that there is no cure, but there must still be some that still have the possibility of being changed, all they lack is the right environment.
There are too few people in this ‘circle of people’ who are able to break free from their old prison and awaken themselves, and among them, those who have the power to change it all are even more rare.
The only ones I know of are Brother Amamiya, Father, Sister, and me ……
When the crisis comes, those of us who have been awakened and have the power either choose to save ourselves and become deserters of this heaven and earth, or …… come forward to be the pioneers who will save the day.
Sister, I don t want to be a deserter.
Maybe we won t be understood, maybe this journey will be very bumpy and difficult, but we want to give this country a possibility …… a possibility to return to the right track.
That, is what brother Amamiya and I are doing.”
Looking at Yuzuri Takubai’s pure and serious eyes, Yuzurina froze in place.
She had never imagined that her simple, game-loving otaku brother’s thoughts were already so far-reaching.
Sure enough, there are no fools in the Yuzuri family …… In front of him, Yuzuri Nai felt that she was the fool.
Yuzuri-Takubai reached out his hand and gently brushed away the tearstains at the corner of Yuzuri-Nai’s eyes, smiling like a big boy, ”And ah, a child like me who can be a hero, I don’t know how many of my peers dream of it.
In a child’s world, there aren’t so many disputes of interest and hooks, we just want to be heroes, that’s all.
Even if it’s only a little bit possible, I want to carry these children’s wish to become their light.”
Yuzuri Takubai reached out her hand and pointed to the blood-stained white coat in Yuzurina’s arms:
”Sister, can you return my Ultraman holster, to me?”
Hearing these words, Yuzuru Riina, who had already stopped her tears, couldn’t help but smile again.
She pursed her lips slightly, and returned the white coat in her arms to Yuzuri Takubai, with an unprecedentedly serious expression, “No matter what happens, make sure to protect yourself, okay?”
”Got it, sister, I’ll be back soon.”
Yuzuri Takubai stood up from the ground, smiled and waved his hand at Yuzuri Nai, and turned towards the door.
He donned the blood-stained white coat, the fluttering cherry blossoms fluttering in the wind, and this tall young man of no more than thirteen years of age used his own hands to carve out the path called hope in the thorn bushes on behalf of tens of millions of lives.
His figure shifted and disappeared.
Yuzurina stared at the direction of his departure for a long time in silence, and as if she had made up her mind about something, she called out to the door:
”Takuya.”
A young man stood out and bowed respectfully to Yuzurina, “House Master.”
”Call all members of the Kazamatsuri family in Tokyo, and in ten minutes, follow me out the door.”
”Go out? Family master, it’s chaotic outside right now, what are we going to do?”
”Go to …… to enforce the law on behalf of Heaven.”
