Please. Stop rampaging.
My wish for the Orochi to stop rampaging outside wasn’t heard.
There was an even louder sound, and the ground shook violently.
The Orochi’s eyes opened.
“No good!” (Sakura)
I poured more magic power into the circle. I kept pouring more and more that I almost fainted. But I can’t stop here. I poured in magic power as if I were squeezing out the very last drop.
Please. Stop!
The Orochi’s eyes slowly close.
I felt relieved and woozy at the same time.
I hit a wall and clumsily fell when I was about to stumble sideways.
I don’t remember there being any walls next to me.
I should have been in the middle of the room, to begin with.
I looked to the side with blurry eyes and saw a fluffy white wall.
`Ku~u ~ n’
“Hugging Bear-sama?” (Sakura)
It was Hugging Bear-sama who supported me. Hugging Bear-sama was very, very warm and comfortable.
I feel very relieved.
“Thank you, Hugging Bear-sama.” (Sakura)
I leaned on Hugging Bear-sama and kept the magic power flowing.
I could feel warmth flowing in from Hugging Bear-sama’s body. Thanks to Hugging Bear-sama, I will be able to work a little harder.
I have lost track of how much time has passed since I started pouring magic power. If it weren’t for Hugging Bear-sama, I might have gone crazy.
I could still hear the sound of the ground being pounded. Amid the chaos, there was a loud noise, the earth trembled many times, and there was an audible tremor. This time the quake felt the closest I have ever been. I have a terrible feeling.
In the beginning, the sound was coming from a short distance away. Then it came closer, and this time the sound was very close.
The ground quaked, and the building shook.
Perhaps one of Orochi’s heads sealed at Ruimin-san’s area had been unsealed.
Ruimin-san…
I got Ruimin-san involved, who had nothing to do with this.
Please be safe. I don’t care what happens to me, so, please.
I made such a wish.
Then there was the sound of something repeatedly hitting the ground nearby. And each time, the building shook.
It might break.
But I can’t leave this place. It’s my role to keep the serpent sealed.
The wards repeatedly flashed red and black, and Orochi’s eyes opened again.
My consciousness was fading, but Hugging Bear-sama gently hugged me and supported me.
`Ku~u ~ n’
“I, I’m okay.” (Sakura)
I managed to remain conscious.
Nearby, the loud thumping quieted down. The sound of the ground-pounding a few moments earlier was no longer audible.
Hugging Bear-sama gently made a small “ku~n” cry.
Hugging Bear-sama, what’s wrong?
I cannot ask. I could only lean on Hugging Bear-sama while I continued to place my hands on the magic circle as I continued to squeeze out my remaining magic power.
At that time, there was a person who approached me.
“Are you okay, Sakura?” (Yuna)
With half-closed eyes, I looked in the direction of the voice and saw Yuna-sama rushing toward me from the stairs and Ruimin-san riding Swaying Bear-sama.
“Yuna-sama?” (Sakura)
Yuna-sama rushed over to me.
“Sorry I’m late. It’s okay now.” (Yuna)
What does she mean by okay?
“Sakura. You can let go now.” (Yuna)
Yuna-sama touched my hand and took it away from the magic circle.
