Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 1593 1565. The flaw in the mind

On the tenth day, Saito Yoshitatsu was controlled by Kashin Koji and the entangled monster army was defeated.

Outside the city of Iwamura, on a small hill that was raised due to changes caused by the tearing of the terrain.

The half-demon beauty was kneeling in front of a cenotaph with her eyes closed, praying.

At this time, the distant Iwamura City was bustling with noise. The reconstruction of the city and the daily lives of the city residents and the army were all busy to maintain.

For a moment, it seemed quite lively.

After all, after such a great battle between humans and demons, not many humans died. This is the most worthy thing to celebrate in this cruel and chaotic era.

The cenotaph on this small hill was erected by Saito Dosan.

In fact, it was just a pile of stones with some weapons and clothes placed inside, and a monument erected in front.

The huge terrain changes caused by the spirit stone were almost like a large earthquake with a very small range and no spread. How could there be no deaths at all?

Most of the samurai who followed Saito Yoshitatsu to fight their way up the raised stone beam and remained loyal even after turning into monsters were old acquaintances of Saito Dosan.

Even if it was to commemorate this hateful and regrettable blind loyalty, Saito Dosan also wanted to build a tomb for those samurai who had turned into monsters.

Therefore, the humans who were swallowed up by the changes in the terrain, as well as the warriors who turned into monsters and turned into foul air and dissipated after death, were all counted in this small pile of stones.

The half-demon beauty in front of the tombstone was wearing a pure black kimono, without any military uniform, as if she was attending a funeral.

She clasped her hands together, knelt in front of the tombstone, closed her eyes, and continued to chant Buddhist scriptures about rebirth in paradise.

"You haven't been around much in the past few days since I cured you, and that must have made your father very upset."

A calm and gentle voice came from the wind, and it came behind me without me noticing when.

Lan En stood behind the beautiful half-demon who was wearing mourning clothes, clapped his hands towards the cenotaph, and finally bowed with his hands clasped together.

After he finished worshipping, he turned his head and looked down at the beauty who was still kneeling and praying and asked, "Do you come here to worship them every day?"

The breeze blew the half-demon's colored hair, brushing across her cold white skin, delicate chin, and corners of her mouth.

She sighed and opened her eyes.

Her pupils were blood red.

"I started a rebellion, and it was suppressed in the blink of an eye. In the end, I found that even my own body was out of my control from beginning to end. I was like a clown on the stage. I was burdened with such sins. How could I ever meet my father again?"

The body and appearance are exactly the same as A Xiu, but the half-demon beauty in front of him started talking!

The timbre of the voice sounded gentle, making people feel that it was a mature and virtuous woman, but due to the language habits of the person in front of them, it carried a strong and decisive momentum.

When Lan En heard the voice of this strong and powerful lady, he had an association - if Ah Xiu could speak, her voice might be similar to this one, right?

"Tell me how you're feeling first? You haven't told me how you're feeling in the past few days."

Lan said after shaking his head.

"His Highness Lan En's medical skills are outstanding." Saito Yoshitatsu still knelt in front of the tombstone without getting up, but leaned sideways in the direction of Lan En and bowed. "Except that the demonic energy in my body has become more intense, I don't feel anything else."

"There was nothing I could do at the time." Lan En half-knelt down, looking her over and saying, "In order to maintain the balance of yin and yang in you, I could only give you the soul cores of Night Blade God and Train."

"I am very grateful, although it would be better if I died."

"Don't just think about dying because of this. How is that any different from shirking responsibility?" Lan En said seriously. "The main responsibility is not yours."

The rebellion launched by Saito Yoshitatsu in Mino used monsters as the main force, which naturally caused great damage to the land and the people.

But she did these things because she was completely out of control, so it's hard to say how much responsibility she has.

In Lan's home world, people are mostly resentful of the legal tolerance given to mental illness.

But why is that?

That’s because spiritual issues cannot be laid out for everyone to examine like real evidence.

This creates a sense of absurdity in the eyes of the public: "You did the bad thing, and the mental illness report came from you. So just because you have this thing, you can get a lighter sentence?"

This is almost as angry as "I let you play in the game, and it's fine if you cheat, but you also act as the referee."

This kind of anger is justified. After all, no one wants to or can show a person's spiritual world to the outside world.

Even if he really has a problem, a big problem, and even in his feelings it is more painful than death! But who can guarantee that he is telling the truth? Is he not acting?

And the doctors who make pathological judgments are just ordinary people.

Coming back to the point: I question whether this person is really mentally ill. If you give him a certificate, then of course I will question whether you gave him the certificate out of hand.

Another result that cannot be proven.

That's why people mock and hate the statement "I am mentally ill".

But what is Saito Yoshitatsu like in front of Lan En and A Xiu?

Guoxin Jushi was like a parasite that had drained all the nutrients from its host and was ready to run away to seek another way of life! He crawled out of Saito Yoshitatsu's body alive!

The cruelty and malice of this process, as well as the despair and fear of being unable to control their own bodies, were clearly displayed before them through supernatural power.

She had no control over her body.

In a world with extraordinary powers, such things can be investigated, used as evidence, and believed by others.

But Saito Yoshitatsu remained cold and hard: "It was my knot in my heart that gave him the opportunity to take advantage of me."

"You mean your worry about not being able to live up to your father's expectations, and your jealousy and self-pity?" Lan En looked down at her speechlessly. "Do you think you need to die to atone for these emotions?"

Saito Yoshitatsu was brought up by Saito Dosan with great effort.

Because Ah Xiu was taken away, all his energy was focused on Yilong.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

This often brings tremendous pressure to children in the family education environment.

Children who cannot bear it will give up on themselves and degenerate into disappointment, causing their parents to stop caring about them and no longer have to bear the psychological pressure.

Children who can bear it will naturally strive to move forward, but deep down they will still be filled with endless anxiety and fear, and be mentally fragile.

Saito Yoshitatsu, without a doubt, endured it.

But several years ago, during a meeting with his son-in-law Oda Nobunaga, Saito Dosan said with emotion, "Perhaps my successor will only be able to lead your horse in the future."

This sentence triggered Saito Yoshitatsu's fragile spirit of fear of loss.

To this day, even Saito Yoshitatsu himself is not sure whether it was because he had been in contact with the spiritual stone for too long that the flaw in his mind became bigger, allowing Master Guoxin to take advantage of the opportunity.

Or is it that my spirit is so fragile that I have no ability to resist the other party?

But the deepest darkness in Saito Yoshitatsu's heart is just this, the shadow of a childhood that was burdened with too much family pressure and parental attention.

If she is to be held accountable for something like this, then in today's world, who can say that they are not guilty?

"They've given you enough time," Lan En patted Saito Yoshitatsu's shoulder, "Minong is in need of people right now."

"Instead of dwelling on the sins for which you are not primarily responsible, you should think about how to make up for it. Clean up the escaped monsters, rebuild the city, and..."

Lan En looked at her and said, "Hunting down Master Guo Xin, or something like that."

Having said that, Lan En doesn't plan to say any more.

She just stood behind Yilong, showing a semi-forcing attitude of "Hurry up and come back with me, otherwise I won't move away."

Lan En couldn't adjust Saito Yoshitatsu's current mental state in just a few words.

It would be better to let her get busy directly, and let Dao San and A Xiu care about her as family, and let time and family heal her.

For Lan En, psychological damage is much more difficult to deal with than physical damage.

Just like the Aretuza coup he had experienced before, facing Tishaya who was on the verge of collapse, Lan En could only keep her "busy" to soothe her spirit.

Under Lan's semi-forced stance, Saito Yoshitatsu sighed.

But he still stood up from the ground.

She patted the dusty knees of her kimono, because the style of the kimono restricted her figure, so that when she bent over, she could only adopt a very graceful sideways posture.

The white hair hung down, revealing the slender, cold, white and delicate neck.

"I think my father's 'letter of surrender' has already been written on the desk. Why do you have to drag a criminal like me to do it?"

"Give up the throne? To whom?" Lan En chuckled when he saw that she was willing to stand up. "Oda Nobunaga? Isn't it too early?"

Saito Yoshitatsu glanced at the man with his red pupils, wondering if he really didn't react or was just pretending to be stupid.

But you are also right, a letter of surrender written by a daimyo of a country on his own initiative and voluntarily has probably never appeared before.

But now he had already started a rebellion and lost his reputation. And his father had indeed wanted to retire back then.

In fact, people who know Saito Dosan have some guesses about how Mino Kokumiku will develop today.

But those who don’t understand will only be confused.
