The traitor Ziyang Hana stood in front of the three of them, the pine, plum, and bamboo, who were at the top of the White Lily Corps. Now we have all three of the three moons. We are responsible for the betrayal of ourselves. Such enthusiasm appeared with a desire to fight.

"... Pine,... Plum,... Tsubaki?"

"Bamboo, I'll buy you a little time." Breathe. "

"... purple sunflower. How dare you, my father!" Mother! I will never forgive you! Definitely! "

A plum that burns with hatred. She was about to be slashed, but she opened her mouth to control it.

"Fufufufu. Finally, the day has come to settle with you, Ziyanghua." I knew you were hiding your true power from us. Since that day, when you took a bottle in a mock fight! "

Then why didn't you tell me? Such a tsukumi floats in my head, but now that I'm serious, I can endure the bamboo.

Although the sense of one-person misunderstanding is increased, the presence of such a hammer relieves the air that is stretched slightly. The relaxation reminds the angry girls that killing Ziyang Flower is not the only option.

... um. That's what we're after. No, it must be. Tsubaki is a pervert of the three magicians, but he can read the air and do his work. A child who can do what he wants.

Yeah, let's believe it.

It was a pine that slightly frustrated his nose, but it changed the air in the field by coughing once.

"Nnh!... There's a traitor in the White Party." When you told me about it, I suspected the first people to join the White Ladies. "

……

Matsu said so clearly as he scratched his chest. As a chief, I suspected my compatriots even though I knew it was an unacceptable act... The bamboos, who knew its weight, clasped their hands and endured while feeling irresistible.

Once the pine exhaled deeply, it turned its gaze back to Ziyanghua.

"I want to help you save my life." For this to happen, it is essential to expand your forces and increase your power. At that time, we ran around Hinomoto to collect many orphans in order to plant loyalty to you.... thanks to you, we have gained as many compatriots as planned. But at the same time, it is a dangerous act that can draw in enemies. In fact, I also used the help of adults to build a hideout.... so I turned to the newcomers with suspicion. I thought it would be much easier than doubting your family. I wanted to believe in you... "

"...... ah"

From the pine-eye with a sad expression on its face, a tear passes through its cheek. Immediately thereafter, the atmosphere of the purple sunflower that I was listening to changed. The first thing I noticed about the change was the centipede.

(... hm? You just reacted to something. I wonder if this is anger...? No, but I can feel some regret.... if so, what did Ziyang Hwa react to?)

While observing the behavior of Ziyang Flower, consider the identity of the discomfort I felt earlier. I'm sure that's why Tsubaki betrayed the White Leopards. I hoped that there was a way to get her back from the Tokugawa demons.

... but that wish can no longer be fulfilled.

"Family? Want to believe it?... more than that, you, the eldest daughter, will say that!!"

OH!?

With a focus on purple sunflowers, the guren burst into battle. It's as gravitational as it gets. The pines opened their eyes to the pressure and held their weapons in place. Negotiations ruptured... no, we should call it an immediate war. The pine was unable to meet her expectations, and she touched the upside of Ziyang Flower.

Shrinkage. As she stepped into the pine nostrils without a sound, Ziyang Flower pulled out her sword from the sheath and swung it across the side.

"--Fufu!"

"Ugh... ahhh!!"

I managed to prevent the first hit by the sudden attack, but I stepped on the rotating slash that led to two or three streaks without taking hold of the pine. After a few seconds of commas, without missing the moment when the center of gravity of the pine shifted, Ziyang Hua stepped one step further and released a sharp thrust.

As soon as the blade pierced the body, I managed to catch the blade with a sheath, but I could not scatter the impact, and the pine was blown off while bouncing off the ground several times.

It was a purple sunflower that wanted to pursue it, but two shadows appeared to block its path.

"... let me go!"

"Yes, it's easy for you to do it!"

……

Bamboo and plum that hold quiet fighting spirit in their eyes if you don't let them do whatever they want anymore. With those two in my back seat, Ziyanghua held up her weapon silently... but as if aiming for that moment, the mysterious blow from Ziyanghua's blind spot attacked her right hand.

Dullness. Slight numbness. Ziyang Flower censors those who attacked without trying to hide their frustration.

"OH!? Tsk, you!!"

”Fufu, don't be alarmed.”

"...... Damn!"

A small sword fell from Ziyang Hua's right hand. The back of red and swollen hands. A pebble falling to the ground. Yes, that is the true nature of the mysterious blow unleashed by Tsubaki. I put my right hand on my waist and shot a pebble like a thumbs-up.

Don't underestimate it as just a pebble. Technology using Luo Han coins has also been established in China. As a kind of dark weapon.

Sure enough, it's just a coin toss. However, the blow from the master smashed his bones. Tsubaki's skill hasn't reached the master's realm yet, but it can be accomplished in a hundred percent if you disarm the opponent's dominant hand.

Ziyanghua stretched out her left hand to the small sword that danced in the air while tonguing, but the bamboo and plum moved.

"... put it together!"

Yeah! Leave it to me!

"--Fu!!"

As the bamboo swung away the left hand of Ziyang Flower with its sword, it kicked the left flank of Ziyang Flower with its right foot.

"...... ah"

Ziyang Flower twists her face in dull pain. However, their attacks are not yet over. At the place where the purple sunflower was flying, there was already a plum figure holding its right hand. Push your left hand forward, aim, and exhale deeply. Then, the moment the sole and Ziyanghua's bodies overlapped, a straight fist that captured the core of the body was released.

”Haaaaaaaa!!!”

"-Oh!?"

An unvoiced scream. Purple sunflowers are blown away by the shock waves. "... yes. In the view of the plum, which was still alive as I breathed, I jumped on the ground many times and rolled around. Finally, there was a figure of purple sunflower squatting against the trunk of a giant tree."

A deep and heavy sound echoed, and the birds flew in a hurry. After all, we were outnumbered. No matter how much Ziyang Flower hid his strength, it was inevitable that this would happen if four powerful cultivators with the same rank or higher were taken at the same time.

It's settled. When everyone thought so, Ziyanghua stretched out her right hand trembling, grabbed the trunk, and began to scratch again.

”-Kahaha!”

Hematemesis. A slight blood throws up the earth. Have you lost your guts? But even so, Ziyang Flower's heart was still not broken.

"Hugh, Hugh, Hugh"

You're breathing. Your head's on the ground. It has an unusual atmosphere.

”I'll lose...! I'll do it for her...”

......

Eyes peeking from the drooping forehead. The pines inadvertently took a breath at the terrible murderous intent that dwelt there.

What was there was a boiling incarnation of hatred. What are you so angry about? Why did you get there? Normally, anger doesn't last. Nevertheless, anger, hatred, and resentment were swirling in Ziyang Hua's eyes. I couldn't see anything but the sole.

- It's dangerous.

Is that your instinct as an organism?

Instantly, the bamboo and plum that made the decision were about to run out of the ground, but before that, the voice of the pine dominated the two.

"Wait!"

-Oh, but!

"Just wait!" Stand back, both of you. I'll... go. As a leader, you must accept the words of Ziyanghua! "

...... will

While holding down the right flank, the two reluctantly give way to the words of the chief with strong intentions. However, are you unwilling to give in to your presence? The two pursued the back of the pine naturally. At some point, I joined the ranks. Neither Matsu nor the girls had any right to ask.

And finally, I arrived under the purple sunflower.

Already, she stands up completely, with no weapons in her hands, but no shadows in the black hatred that rises from her body.

In this situation, the bamboo stops in front of the purple sunflower without a pine hand, even though the bamboo is not afraid to put its hand on the sheath. The gaze exchanged. However, Ziyang Flower's eyes were slightly empty, as if she was looking at someone through the pine...

(After all, Ziyang Hua hates......)

To his appearance, Matsu was convinced that his hypothesis was correct. And he opens his mouth quietly.

"Purple sunflower. Tell me why you betrayed our land."

"... to protect my sister." We had no choice but to save her from the demons of the lunatics. "

"... lunatic?"

"Yeah, that's right. Taku-sama, there was only a madman in that town. All the lunatics who don't think of people as people.... if it's Matsu-sama, you know him, don't you? It belongs to the eldest daughter. I'm sure you've heard of it. Um, if it's Matsumoto who draws blood from the outer road that's not worth living for!"

...?!

The sole spoken by Ziyanghua was stupidly dark in the home of the White Lily Walker Shrine Maiden.
