"Human Pillar..." Zuo Cun felt a heavy hammer hit his head.
He naturally knows what a human pillar is.
"This is...an unthinkable disaster."
"After we die, all our grievances, resentments, and sorrows are condensed into the girl's soul that remains in the lake and refuses to leave for a long time."
The white girl didn't care about Zuo Cun's reaction and just told the story to herself, as if the person in the story was not her.
"At this time, the girl has no trace of her former self. Her hair has turned as black as snow, and her gentle eyes only contain resentment and rage."
"The powerful monster girl left the lake. She discovered that the bear who raised her was resurrected and turned into a monster because of resentment."
"They want... revenge."
Zuocun suddenly felt a chill.
Because, he saw a huge black object appearing on the ridge.
The giant black shadow's eyes flashed with red light, extremely conspicuous in the black night sky.
The black figure was nearly ten meters tall, lying on all fours, full of oppression.
"Roar......"
Zuo Cun put his hand on the handle of the knife and stared at the black shadow.
This is...a bear demon.
"Don't worry, she won't attack you." The white-haired girl spoke to comfort Zuo Cun.
The bear demon did not come in this direction, but just watched from a distance.
"She is equivalent to my mother. Even the reason why she became a monster is just to continue to protect her daughter. If it were not for my black request, she would not attack you during the day."
"Was it her who attacked me?" Zuo Cun sighed.
The white girl continued to narrate: "The black me came to the village, wrapped all the sleeping villagers in my hair, and then returned to Kurokawa Lake and returned to the lake."
"And those villagers...are them." The white girl pointed to Kurokawa Lake below.
Zuo Cun remembered Hideo Kurokawa whom he met in the village before.
"So, the reason why the monster is bloated and has the characteristics of a fish is because it drowned..."
The white girl nodded.
"They are guilty people, and they deserve to die by drowning."
Her eyes were cold, looking at the drowned corpse on Kurokawa Lake.
Zuo Cun did not respond.
His mind is very confused now.
"However, after revenge, pleasure did not make the girl become a Buddha, but... twisted her will."
"She began to long for the lives of others, so she let the souls of the guilty villagers return to the village."
"During the day, she stayed in the lake, and the souls of the villagers were hidden to recuperate. But at night, all passers-by passing by Kurokawa Shimo Village would be lured by the driven villagers, taken to Kurokawa Lake, and then drowned.
."
"And when she killed the first innocent person, I was born."
"Maybe it's a remnant of good nature. She took the initiative to separate me from me. The purpose is naturally to find a way to stop her atrocities."
thump.
Zuo Cun sat on the ground in a daze.
"So it's... like this, right?"
"But, blessed by her spiritual veins, she is invincible." The white girl sighed and squatted next to Zuo Cun, "You gave me hope to stop the atrocities, Mr. Zuo Cun."
"So, I will tell you her only weakness."
"... Just tell me." Zuo Cun covered his head.
He didn't understand why this happened.
Who is wrong?
Is it a girl?
Is he a passerby?
Why would such an unforeseen disaster happen? And how did the villagers, who just wanted to pray for safety, feel when they arrested the girl?
Zuocun doesn't know the answer to all this.
But there was one thing, he understood.
The girl at this time may no longer be the victim.
Instead, he has become a perpetrator who extends a sharp knife to innocent people, and is also a guilty existence.
Such an existence...should not exist.
But weren't it the same villagers who made the girl become like this?
If you just want to kill the girl who became a monster, does that mean that you will become a mob no different from those villagers?
Snapped.
Zuo Cun was tapped on the shoulder.
He slowly raised his head and saw the girl's flawless eyes.
"Are you sympathizing with me?" The girl smiled slightly.
"...The villagers are evil, and you who turned into a monster are also evil, but...what is the source of evil? And if I kill the monster, you, who is not evil, will also
Disappear."
"Does this mean that in order to kill evil, I also killed good?"
"if that is the case......"
"Please don't be burdened, Zuomura Anno." The girl stood up, showing an expression completely different from the previous indifference.
"Don't think of me as a good person." The girl looked down the mountain and at the lake. "From the beginning, my purpose was not to save the villagers."
"They are undoubtedly rotten people, sinful and filthy."
"Their souls are not worthy of redemption. What I care about... is that I don't want anyone to enter this deep quagmire of resentment."
Zuo Cun looked at the girl.
A trace of red clouds has risen in the sky, and the floating corpses on the surface of Kurokawa Lake are slowly sinking and disappearing into the lake, turning the clear lake water into darkness again.
"...I'm just atonement, not a good deed. You know, the guy over there and I are the same person."
She pointed to a stone pillar on the west side of the lake. Standing on the stone pillar was the black monster.
"Thank you for listening to my story, Anno Samura."
"Now she is invincible and invincible."
"You are a good person and the only strong person who survived. Therefore, I ask you here to put an end to my crying."
"As a monster, my only weakness will appear on the day when I am made into a adult pillar, that is, August 5th."
"Only on that day will she become weak and likely to be killed."
"And if you can, please remember me."
"Remember this, the person who made the agreement with you."
"My name is, Hoshikuma Yukina."
Zheng——
Zuo Cun held the handle of He He's knife and looked at the big stone at the entrance of the village.
Hoshikuma Yukina, I'm back and I've fulfilled my promise.
