Raising a hand, Xiao Yexiao asked.
"Eliminate them all together. Supernatural beings are supernatural beings. There are no innocent people."
"They are born evil, and they are beings that will seek revenge and inflict evil on living humans."
"No mercy, no compromise, fight when you see, and kill when you fight."
"Kill and destroy."
"It's that simple."
What I got was such a cold and heartless answer.
Sakurai...
For all existences that threaten human life...
Detested.
If it weren't for his lack of ability, he would have destroyed and conquered all the supernatural beings in this world long ago.
Chi Ran Ji in Xiao Ye Xiao's arms was trembling slightly. She could feel that Sakurai was serious about what he said...
I will put it into action and answer seriously.
The person in front of me was born...
It is the natural enemy of the supernatural existence.
Tightening the polar bear doll in his arms, Xiao Yexiao said...
Leave it to her.
"Sakurai, you said before that the purpose of this time is to hunt enough spirits to serve as my substitutes, right?"
With her head lowered, Xiao Yexiao didn't want Sakurai to see her expression.
"Yes, what do you want to say?"
With his head slightly lowered, Sakurai looked at the snack.
"In that case, I should have the right to dispose of them."
"Is it okay if I understand it this way?"
,
Xiao Yexiao's voice was very soft, and she was confirming Sakurai's thoughts.
"That's fine. This is your property. You can do whatever you want with it."
Sakurai continued to nod, indicating that Xiao Yexiao was right.
"In that case, I want innocent souls to go to the afterlife?"
"May I?"
The real purpose was revealed. After all, this was really a seven-year-old girl's midnight snack. She didn't have much scheming and directly expressed her thoughts.
Sakurai was silent...
He had already realized that this situation might happen when Xiao Yexiao opened his mouth, but he still felt it was a little weird when he heard it.
How should I put it? It's as weird as the little lamb and the sheepdog saying to the big bad wolf, "He's so pitiful, can you please not kill him?"
Even though your important family members are being targeted by ghosts, do you still have sympathy for them?
Sakurai actually couldn't understand Xiao Yexiu's thoughts.
In the end, he could only say helplessly, "What a willful child."
but...
This compassion may be the reason why she can complete this incredible [art] of using the supernatural as a form.
never mind...
At worst, I'll just have to put in a little more effort.
Try to capture a few stronger psychics as reserve personnel for Xiao Ye Xiao.
But before that—
After touching Xiao Yexiao's hair, Sakurai's expression suddenly became cold.
"Little Night Snack, you have to understand, for you."
"[No distinction between good and evil, accept all who come], as long as the power can be used, you must grab it without hesitation, and never let it go no matter what."
"In the shortest possible time, a supernatural army is formed. Dozens, hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of them are formed. The number of supernatural beings is continuously stacked to achieve qualitative changes, and eventually an extraordinary and powerful force is achieved."
"This is your only chance as a mortal to kill a god."
"It is also the most appropriate path I have planned for you."
“It may be cruel, but it is the right thing to do.”
Staring at the little midnight snack, Sakurai sighed softly.
"Little Snack, I don't know if I am unqualified as a teacher, but I still hope you understand this."
"For your parents, and for yourself."
"Rather than naively thinking that everything is as beautiful as in a fairy tale."
"Justice triumphs over evil, provided that justice is stronger."
"You have to know that in most cases in this world, the size of the shadow is far greater than the light."
Sakurai, who was about to continue speaking, noticed the tears in Xiao Yexiao's eyes.
Only then did he realize that the person in front of him was only a seven-year-old child.
Children of her age all enjoy the joy of childhood under the protection of their parents.
I seem to...
A bit too harsh on the midnight snack.
Should I give Xiao Yexiao some opportunities to grow?
This is better for her.
At worst, it just takes a little more time.
Sakurai Eito, what are you in such a hurry for?
Sakurai asked himself this and finally came to a conclusion.
He seemed to be forcing his own ideas on Xiao Yexiao.
But, Xiao Ye Xiao is Xiao Ye Xiao, and he is him.
Their situations and circumstances are similar but by no means the same. Xiao Yexiao is his student, but not his vassal.
I hope that one day in the future Xiao Ye Xiao can find her own way, and when people mention her, they will refer to the evil Pokémon Master Bao Yue Ye Xiao.
Instead of——
Oh, it's her. I know. Isn't she the student of the supernatural killer Sakurai Eito?
This is the future I want to see.
If I think about it, I seem to have been imitating Mafuyu-san's teaching style.
But I am not Sister Mandong, and Xiao Yexiao is not me, so we cannot generalize.
Realizing this, Sakurai finally stopped talking.
For some things, it’s better for Xiao Yexiao to experience them personally.
At worst, if something makes a noise, I can just keep it for Xiao Ye Xiao.
Isn't that what teachers do?
Thinking of this, Sakurai forced himself to soften the stern look on his face.
15. Novice teacher Sakurai's first lesson
Sakurai ruffled Xiao Yexiao's hair, smiled faintly and continued speaking.
"But you just need to listen to those little midnight snacks I just mentioned."
"What I told you is just my opinion."
"As a teacher, I can only give suggestions, I can't make decisions for you."
"But I have to remind you, if you die for such a reason."
"Or don't cry if you are in a desperate situation."
"It will be too late to regret then."
"You know, even I am not omnipotent. My [Future Perception] cannot fully read the dangers you will encounter in the future, so there will be times when it is too late."
"I want you to remember that."
"No matter what time, you must not give up thinking and use your brain. Now you are smarter than me."
Sakurai wiped the crystal from the corners of his eyes for Xiao Ye Xiao, and there was a smile on his face.
"Don't forget, your enemies are gods. It won't be over until you get the power to protect them."
"Remember?"
Squatting down and touching Xiao Yexiao's head, Sakurai said softly.
"Got it, Sakurai."
An almost inaudible voice came from Xiao Yexiao, and she hugged Chi Ran Ji tightly and whispered that she understood.
She also knew that Sakurai was thinking about her, and that his arrangements might be cruel and unreasonable, but...
All of them are considered based on one's own safety.
But even so, it doesn't matter if you say she is naive or ignorant, she still wants to be willful for once.
