"Miss Yae Sakura." Theresa's face suddenly turned red when she saw Yae Sakura, and she covered her cheeks with her hands, remembering just now when Yae Sakura fed her medicine with her mouth.

"Before that little girl appeared, there had never been a monster in this village!"

At this time, a very loud accusation came from the house, followed by more accusations.

"She must have brought disaster! She must be driven away immediately!"

"My...my husband was killed by a monster. The white-haired witch must pay the price!"

The villagers denounced each other one by one. The recent misfortunes that occurred in the village due to the attack of the Honkai Beast were all attributed to Theresa, a stranger.

"Currently... there is no basis to prove that the girl is connected with the monster that appeared recently." Yae Sakura closed her eyes slightly, lowered her head slightly, leaned down gently, folded her hands to support the tatami, and said lightly: "Please

Give me some time and I will investigate everything clearly."

"What else needs to be investigated?!"

"Isn't it the shrine maiden's duty to protect the village?!"

Yae Sakura, whom the villagers criticized relentlessly.

"Miko-sama." At this time, a middle-aged man's cold voice sounded, "Even if that little girl has nothing to do with the monster, don't forget that the day of sacrifice is coming soon."

"Father... Lord God, do you want to use her as a sacrifice?" Yae Sakura was stunned and looked at the middle-aged man who spoke. This man was none other than her father: Lord Yae.

She remembered again that a few years ago, it was this ruthless father who killed her sister as a sacrifice on the altar.

"It has not rained in the village for three months, so we must carry out sacrifices as soon as possible." Lord Yae said, "She who appears at this time must be a blessing bestowed upon us by the gods."

"But..." Yae Sakura frowned.

"For the sake of the village, the sacrifice must be carried out." The Yae God Lord said: "If we don't sacrifice this stranger, we must sacrifice the boys and girls in the village."

Lord Yae narrowed his eyes slightly, stared at Yae Sakura and said, "Do you want Rin's sacrifice to be in vain?"

"cold..."

Yae Sakura thought of the dead Yae Rin Rin, and what Yae Rin said to her before her death echoed in her mind: "My sister must become an outstanding miko!"

At the same time, countless noisy and chaotic thoughts rang out in her mind, including the so-called responsibilities that had been imposed on her, and the words of Heigomaru that kept tempting her into darkness.

All of this made Yae Sakura's thoughts become confused, and she bent down holding her head in some pain.

"Stop!" Theresa, who was already furious outside the door, pushed open the door and stood in front of Yae Sakura, yelling: "So many people are surrounding and bullying a girl...

"

Theresa suddenly pushed open the door and entered, causing all the villagers present to look at her. Even Yae Sakura, who was leaning over with her head in her arms, glanced at her.

"That's too much! Aren't you ashamed!" Theresa pointed at the villagers and angrily shouted: "You still talk about gods and gods. Are you primitive people?"

Yae Sakura straightened up, raised her head, and watched in astonishment as Theresa spoke angrily against the villagers.

"It is not the gods that determine fate, but human beings' own will!" Theresa shouted loudly.
