Chapter 467: 467
Kurumi’s incapitation is not enough to convince Mana to stop . She drew out a large lightsaber and she approached the dying Kurumi in order to deal the final blow just in case she’s still alive .
She’s doing this for a good reason . No matter how many times Mana killed Kurumi, she would come back seemingly from the other side and continue her killing spree .
At this point, even when Mana saw the huge hole in her heart and the pool of blood beneath Kurumi’s body, Mana felt nothing, Kurumi’s blood-stained countenance also didn’t affect Mana in any manner . This just shows how many times Mana had already done this .
Mana decided to deal the final blow, a clean cut to her neck, hopefully the last time she will need to do this . Before she can deliver the coup de grâce, a hand stopped her by firmly grabbing her sword wielding arm .
Mana reflesively looked at the one who stopped her . Wu Yan’s expressionless face made her flinch in surprise, even the AST members hovering in the air are shocked .
“What are you doing?”
Mana questioned him . She knew he’s not a normal person but why is he trying to stop her from finishing off someone who tried to devour him .
He saw how confused she looked and Wu Yan sighed .
“Stop doing this to make yourself feel better . You and I both know this won’t work . ”
Mana lowered her head .
“You don’t understand, Tokisaki Kurumi is a special spirit that would come back no matter how many times I kill her . ”
“And you think killing her one more time is going to make a difference?”
Wu Yan interrupted Mana . She was rendered speechless and Wu Yan decided to stop for now . Tokisaki Kurumi who is barely alive at the moment tried her best to look at Wu Yan . She longed for him but she didn’t forget to shoot a sarcastic glance Mana’s way . She is also rather calmed even at death’s door as if she has expected this all along . There is just one last thing on her mind, confusion as to why Wu Yan did what he did .
Wu Yan crouched down, he wiped away the blood on her face much to everyone’s bewilderment .
“Abandoning your past is just another way of running . Without facing it and embracing it, one can never truly move forward . If you lack the courage to face your past self, how are you ever going to steadily face the future . At this point, you can’t even change the past even if you went back there . ”
Kurumi is befuddled by the warmth Wu Yan showed her in her last moments . Her lips moved but due to her dying state, no words came out, the slow and insidious reach of death has taken a hold of her . She is too weak to do anything than to stare at Wu Yan with wide eyes .
After cleaning up the blood on her face, he caressed her .
“See? You look much better this way…”
Wu Yan stared intently at Kurumi before mumbling .
“I wanted to save you at least one time…”
Kurumi’s fading eyes had a strong will behind them for just a brief moment before death won the tussle once more, this time, in a more decisive manner .
During the last few seconds of her fading life, Kurumi showed regret and desire at the same time . She didn’t want to part with Wu Yan like this . Finally, the string of life broke as evidenced by the lack of life in her eyes .
