Soon, the low outer wall began to burn, and the wind helped the fire continue to spread inward.
Mori Ranmaru, who was in the courtyard, also decisively lit the firewood around the house, then walked to the courtyard and sat with a group of remaining minors.
They shouted loudly, committed seppuku, or stabbed each other, and soon became corpses all over the ground.
Oda Nobunaga in the room had already closed his eyes, feeling the rising heat around him and recalling his life.
When I was young, I was so envious of my younger sister Nobuyuki for being able to stay with her parents. In order to attract their parents' attention, she kept doing inappropriate things, but she was accused time and time again of not being as well-behaved as Nobuyuki.
After his mother died, his father hated him and his retainers did not trust him. The inherited family business was in danger and could be snatched away by Nobuyuki at any time.
Oda Nobunaga refused to accept it. She wanted to prove herself to her dead mother and to everyone that she was the best!
Oda Nobunaga, who was working hard to accumulate strength and longed for a blockbuster, learned that that man had fled to his castle and claimed to return the crotchless pants he had left behind.
Thinking of this, Oda Nobunaga couldn't help laughing.
That guy was really interesting. Just because he opened the door that time, the two of them were destined to be together. From then on, Oda Nobunaga's cold heart also had a little more brightness.
The path of the world is simpler than imagined, but conquering his body and mind is more difficult than imagined.
Everyone said that Nobunaga's ambitions were world-wide, but who knew that she was no longer the same person as before.
The bloodless and tearless Demon King fell step by step in the whirlpool of emotions and became a mortal with flesh and blood who could be hurt.
Oda Nobunaga felt that the surroundings were getting hotter and hotter, and her breathing was a little difficult. The burning took away the oxygen, lighting up her mind, and she had never faced her heart so calmly.
Akechi Mitsuhide's words deeply hurt Oda Nobunaga. Is it a political compromise when Yoshihiro Shiba is with him, or is there really a trace of affection?
At the last moment of his life, Oda Nobunaga never thought about her four-million-koku territory or the unfinished business of the people of the world. He just repeatedly asked himself...
Does he love me? Does he love me?
Having lost the ability to love, that wild child Oda Nobunaga suddenly longed for love.
The memories become more and more lonely, and the tears in the corners of the eyes slide down the cheeks. Is the gentle and lingering love just wishful thinking?
In a trance, Oda Nobunaga seemed to be back when she was a child again. She was sitting under the tree in loneliness, peeling off the petals one by one.
He loves me, he doesn't love me, he loves me, he doesn't love me...
Suddenly there was another person in front of him. The handsome young man looked at him curiously as he peeled off the flower.
"what are you doing?"
"Fortune telling."
"Oh? So how does this count?"
"Just like this, petals are peeled off one by one. If the last petal is love, then the person I love will also love me."
The young master squatted in front of little Oda Nobunaga, and used his white and slender fingers to peel off the skin like little Oda Nobunaga.
"I love you, I don't love you, I love you, I don't love you... I love you, I'm done peeling it off, I love you!"
Little Oda Nobunaga looked up at the young master in front of him, his face already filled with tears. The two seemed to be growing up little by little, and finally became a perfect couple.
Oda Nobunaga smiled and hugged him in front of her. He was her lover.
Her Sibo Yiyin is so passionate, like a burning fire, even if she knows that she is drawing a moth to the flame, she is unwilling to let go.
Let her get drunk in this dream and never wake up from it.
Oda Nobunaga's smile became brighter and brighter in the midst of the blazing fire. He took the initiative to embrace the merciless fire, but he was as gentle as embracing the man he loved most.
Who secretly stole her heart, leaving her with no regrets in her life? The tears in the corners of her eyes were evaporated by the flames, and her murmured words echoed in the firelight.
"Thirty years of life are like a dream and an illusion..."
———
Akechi Mitsuhide slowly woke up, the tears in the corners of his eyes had long dried up in his dream, and he couldn't get rid of the nightmares one after another in his coma.
She didn't have the courage to reach out and touch her belly. The fetal movement and vitality that had been there had disappeared, making her feel the cruelest reality.
I thought I had prepared for the worst, but when I really had to face this cruel reality, Akechi Mitsuhide found it so difficult.
She was always stubborn and kept going against the wishes of the saint. She thought she could bear the price of her willfulness, so she ignored her, which ultimately led to the bitter consequences today.
The crystallization of her relationship with the man she loved deeply became the price of her persistence. At this moment, she still had no regrets in her heart, only sadness.
This world is not just about light, light and darkness coexist.
For the sake of the saint's world, Akechi Mitsuhide is willing to sacrifice everything, become a martyr in the darkness, and eliminate the weeds and rocks in the shadow for the saint in the light.
She once thought that her heart was as solid as a rock and she could give up everything for the saint, but this time, tears burst out of her eyes.
Her child is gone. She and her child have not yet come into this world, let out their first cry, opened their eyes to take a look at the world, and then left.
Akechi Mitsuhide, whose heart was cut by a knife, still tried her best to cover up her sadness. Even if it was pain, even if it was tears, she would taste it silently and not let anyone discover her weakness.
Because she is Mitsuhide Akechi, a poisonous warrior feared by the samurai family, and a poisonous snake under the command of the saint.
Oda Nobunaga died and was relieved, but Akechi Mitsuhide is still alive and still struggling in this world.
Saito Toshizo, who was standing by, saw Akechi Mitsuhide open his eyes and hurried forward.
"Lord, are you awake?"
Akechi Mitsuhide's eyes were distracted and he didn't even look at Saito Rizo, but he asked immediately.
"Is Oda Nobunaga dead?"
"Hey, when we set a fire outside the yard, it also burned inside the yard.
Afterwards, I personally entered the fire scene to investigate, and found His Highness Oda’s body burned by the fire in the house.”
"Where's that bastard of hers?"
"Well... His Highness Oda is currently under the care of the Tenkai people."
"What!"
Akechi Mitsuhide stood up suddenly, and the severe pain in her abdomen immediately made her break into a cold sweat. Saito Rizo was so frightened that he quickly supported her and said.
"Take care, Lord, you were in a coma for five days after the miscarriage, and the doctor almost thought you wouldn't make it.
You were lucky enough to survive in the end, but your body is already extremely weak and you still need to take good care of yourself." Akechi Mitsuhide looked back at Saito Rizo.
"I was in a coma for five days? Forget it, where is my child?"
Saito Rizo lowered his head, not daring to face Akechi Mitsuhide's gaze.
"His Royal Highness's body is parked outside. The doctor said that your internal injuries were severe this time and you may never..."
Akechi Mitsuhide's eyes were as calm as water.
"You can't have children anymore, right?"
"...,Hi."
"Give me the baby."
"My lord... His Highness's body has been resting for five days. It's already a bit... why don't you let me bury it?"
"I said...give me my child, don't you understand?"
"Hi."
At this moment, Akechi Mitsuhide had put aside everything and just wanted to hug his miserable child, even if the child was already cold...
Although Oda Nobunaga, a close confidant, is dead, her evil legacy is still there, and the external political environment must have undergone earth-shaking changes.
Akechi Mitsuhide has no time to feel sad, she just wants a hug now, and then she has to face new challenges.
