"DO YOU STILL WANT TO SAY YELLOW AND GOLD SYMBOLIZE HAPPINESS, SHINOBU!?" Shouted Shira loudly until she regained her composure.
Shinobu would certainly be surprised until she put on a look that looked frightened because she had seen Shira rampaging like that, the feeling she endured began to crack little by little.
The word for word that Shira kept coming out slowly changed Shinobu much more effectively as her mind began to design all of them one by one in order to annihilate the enemy within her.
"I don't think the color yellow can be called happiness.I saw Minami and Shuan fall to attract peace and tranquility..."
"...seeing that my cousins, sisters, and even my parents were killed as well, it was not happiness but bitterness that needed to be accepted because their efforts were simply forgotten because of this world."
"You already have that power.the power that can open the eyes of many who humble yourself, they will all be afraid if you do not hold back!"
"Only mass murder through the book is not effective enough because they do not know who caused it! From there you understand, right!? You're still holding yourself back when it comes to killing...!"
Shinobu continued to stare at the face of Shira who looked miserable now, she also endured all her sadness when recalling the two children and her family who had already fallen.
It turned out that the strong man could also cry, Shira for now did not want to cry but rather gave a lot of lessons to Shinobu in order to open her mind and heart even further.
In addition, he can make himself cry so that all the feelings he craves are released, if it is successful then he can develop and continue his journey to the door he chose.
"What have you seen all this time...? Who do you think our enemy is...?"
"If there is someone who brings change, that person will be able to sacrifice what he loves like Minami."
"If you really want to have monster power through that Beast-changer then reduce your excessive kindness and put darkness in it!"
"A legend that can't sacrifice anything can't change anything!" Shira exclaimed with a threatening look to the point of making Shinobu feel even more guilty.
"Koneko... Koneko knows. I'm still inexperienced..."
"Yes, that's why you have to move forward. This time being your new self by reaching for balance, something excessive will not bring good."
"Your kindness will only be taken advantage of by all of them, you need to have the desire to kill those who interfere and you think are wrong..."
"...if you kill what you think is wrong but everyone thinks they're right, you don't have to care about it..."
"...you just need to show them that evil and evil can turn something into a positive thing forever!"
"Shinobu, in this cruel world, a good attitude will only bring us closer to death, you can show your good attitude to others.
"But if in the presence of the enemy, it is the same as approaching death itself, you can also burden your friends, so if while fighting, fight seriously, without showing mercy."
"Why are you that determined to fight against an enemy who has spent your life several times...? You're still showing mercy...!"
"You know that I've been watching you all along, haven't you!?" Shira asked who started yelling at herself again until Shinobu nodded slowly.
"All Legends have their own reasons, sometimes, you have to solve them without the help of others..."
"...or you won't be able to move forward. If you want to be neutral and put in that darkness then you can definitely go ahead."
"All Legends are weak, only we can continue to grow stronger thanks to the help of effort, hard work, and of course self-esteem.The only thing we can trust until the end!"
"The weak can do nothing...!!! We can't do anything but cry, Grandpa...!" Shinobu replied with a serious look.
"Crying doesn't always show you're weak. Crying is an impingement, all the effort you feel includes all the challenges..."
"...you will surely feel tired until he gives up everything, crying is the way because weakness does not always come from our cries."
"Crying can give us a positive thing as well.Everything we dwell in our hearts will feel light if you want to cry, that's why I want you to let go and vent that cry on me."
"I repeat, Shinobu... Why are you being so kind to all of them...? Those I'm referring to are someone who's been oppressing and thinks you're trash."
"I just want to help, at least change their thought patterns about me, gain their trust all in order for a sustainable life to be filled with genuine trust."
"Nothing has changed.You will only continue to be used until you are oppressed indefinitely, you better kill them and help yourself..."
"...kill in the view of Legends is sometimes good and bad, whereas in other races, it's just that you need to realize that we Legends fight and kill for the good that's to come!"
"Why did Grandpa fight so far...? Trying to change the pattern of thoughts and open the padlock of feelings that I kept...?" Ask Shinobu.
"I beg you to give up. I promised Mama I wouldn't cry... Koneko will remain strong."
"Surely I will not be able to give up until the thing I want has been achieved, we are Shiratori..."
"...the promise you made with Kou was your mother's remorseful mistake, she nurtured you in the wrong circumstances and conditions in this rotten world." When Shira spoke like that, Shinobu immediately read her mind.
"Grandpa himself really wants what from me!?" Ask Shinobu who started fighting now.
"It's obvious, isn't it? I want you to change and let go of all the feelings you've been holding..."
"...if you need a reason then I have so many, one of which is that I am only a temporary light and hope that may not last long!"
"Shinobu, almost every second people will die and be hit by problems..It could be soon I will die, my own hope is still not even enough to change this world!"
"Just temporarily like stopping Zangetsu resistance, maybe it is the last hope that shines on this world...! I couldn't radiate that hope when I lost against Zoiru..."
"...that is because my hope will continue to the next generation that is Minami.he fell with a large grave that is a golden tree in space, it continues to shine with ordinary light."
"Hope has moved on to you permanently.all the hopes of the descendants of Shiratori and Comi... My hope and Korrina's all within you, will not be lost!"
"Do you want to see me die...?"
"Why is Grandpa talking like that!?"
"You really want me to die, huh...?"
"No--"
"IS THIS WHAT YOU REALLY WANT!?" Shira snapped with a look of annoyance as her patience had run out, turning Shinobu turned out to require an angry impulse like advising a child in a way of scolding her.
"If you don't want to change then that hope will only move to me...! Even I will fight myself!!! Letting your naive and still merciful self die...!!!"
"Suffering and all the conflicts that keep popping up...!!! We have to end it...!!! You gotta change, damn it!!!" Shira knelt down then gently slammed into the ground as she did not want to destroy that Realm on purpose.
His gentle punch was enough to crush the land until it extended backwards, Shira was already at a loss for words but Shinobu looked even more dejected until she wanted to cancel the promise.
Shira immediately looked at the teary-eyed Shinobu, her body trembling while using The Mind to read the entirety of Shira intending to help and transform herself into a worthy Legend.
"Either why... Koneko had gotten used to holding back until it was very difficult to let go. Opening the padlock that closed my heart was also difficult..."
"...if someone wants to die, say let them... Koneko will be lonely without family..."
"...Koneko doesn't have any parents anymore." Shira raised both eyebrows when she saw Shinobu's expression look so sad because she started to remember all the suffering and sadness she had to feel alone.
From the age of four, hold everything alone with the help of the system that accompanies him. Considering the world treated her badly, it was sad until tears slowly started to come out through her eyes.
"I've known it all along... Koneko was indeed restrained by showing mercy, harboring all negative feelings, even to the point of accepting all that suffering without telling a story."
"...all that is to blame, I have charged many people, including Grandpa himself..."
"...i'm the lowest of the low, I really hate myself." Shinobu immediately held onto her hair quite tightly as all those feelings of sadness and tiredness started to appear.
The words and behaviors that Shira showed him had an effect now. Shinobu has been living by both her parents including a family member who she knows very closely.
If Shira brings death to her then she will grow sad even to the point of recalling everything, the events of her birth until now... The Mind keeps reminding him.
"Are you tired...? Are you in trouble...?" Shira immediately realized, she could change if she wanted to vent all her feelings of sadness and fatigue to herself.
With it the pattern of his mind and heart will open for good, receiving guidance and of course the upbringing that Shira will give to him until he is ready to live alone again without relying on his Grandpa and Grandma.
"It feels rough, doesn't it...? Cruel... suffer..The world is treating you badly since infancy..."
"...you still want to multiply that kindness without being a little cruel...?" Ask Shira.
"It feels so rough inside you, you have a strong mentality, son..."
"I feel sorry to see you have to step forward even though the world and everyone is forcing and pressuring you to stop..." Shira could see Shinobu continue to put on a sad look.
"I'm in a lot of pain..." Shinobu.
"I'm so scared..."
"I..m very.sad..."
"I tried very hard..."
"At least. I want to follow my Mama. to change everything right..."
"I'm not trying to be strong..."
"...or try...make everything be..."
"...I just keep thinking and thinking.. to justify myself..."
"...to say that.. I'm trying.. that I. not like doing.. nothing." Shinobu's tail and both ears instantly descended, showing her who was starting to grieve.
"I want to. say that I can't hold it back anymore. I want to be told that it can't help..."
"...even if life is painful and difficult.people need to appreciate the meaning in their lives..."
"...I've been thinking of disappearing and running away.but that's not the way Legend deserves, I can't dirty my descendants either..."
"...that's the best, I'm just afraid.whatever I do will just let someone else die..."
"...or maybe more, depending on what will happen. I have had enough.I continue to suffer and endure it in order to share the good I want..."
Shira put on a shocked look when Shinobu did not say anything after that, at first she thought she would say something related to giving up until going berserk and kept saying despair.
As it turned out, he chose to be silent with a regretful look like he understood what Shira wanted, which was the best thing for him until Shinobu still refrained from letting go of all those tears.
"Indeed, you may be able to achieve your wishes to others. But there is no hope of saving yourself in doing so..."
"You will repeat the cycle until you die.still clinging to the ideals you can no longer carry out in this world..."
"...no one comes to help others, in the end, you cannot save others nor yourself."
"With the last wit and hope you receive, you will surely solve the mystery and free everyone trapped in this labyrinth..."
"Koneko Shinobu..."
"If you let go of all the feelings you hold and vent them on me then I will accept them at any time..."
"...since there's still time, don't you want to regret it anymore? Your father and mother are gone, including with Tech who always accompany you."
"Kou was late in warning me something about that kindness.he wanted you to get dirty too in order to change the world, solve all the mysterious things including solving the challenge."
"He cannot give you that message.What he really wants is you to keep shining..."
"The shine that blinds people when they see it for too long, it's the kind of person who trusts you just to use, after all, light is not always good."
"There are only those who endure the light, that is, a protector in their eyes, that they may see the hope of the light forever without receiving blindness or darkness."
"The protector is their trust.those who trust you and understand your purpose."
"I want to say your mother's words.he apologized, because he was no longer there to receive the lanterns..."
"...then I'm always ready, Shinobu. You're not alone, there's still your grandmother and of course I'm the one who wants to babysit-" Shira widens her eyes.
...
...
Tears flowed out through her right eye, just looking at her made Shira feel guilty because her words and snapping were able to break the seal and her restraint.
This was the first time Shinobu had been able to let out tears that flowed down through her chin, "I'm here..."
Shinobu immediately fled the place because she realized that she had cried, reneging on Kou's promise until she could not show Shira the cry.
"Shino-bu!!!"
