I Don't Want to Be a Valkyrie

"Where should I go now?"

Yae Sakura stood on the treetop, lost in thought. The story hadn't even begun yet; Kikyo hadn't even taken possession of the Sacred Jewel.

Perhaps she should look for Kikyo, not just for the yokai who would come for the Sacred Jewel. If possible, Yae Sakura didn't want Kikyo to die.

Although, if Kikyo didn't die, Kagome wouldn't appear.

But... compared to Kagome, Kikyo was simply too pitiable!

That's settled! She'd go find Kikyo, both to hunt yokai and to prevent Kikyo's death.

However... how should she get to Kaede Village?

Looking at the endless forests, Yae Sakura felt... she seemed to be lost again.

That night, Yae Sakura caught a pheasant and found a place to sit down, starting a fire.

At this moment, Yae Sakura regretted leaving so quickly. She should have stayed in Tanihara Castle for a few days! This kind of wilderness living was truly troublesome!

Also, Yae Sakura felt like taking a bath.

"Huh? I actually have a friend? What the heck?"

While eating roast meat, Yae Sakura suddenly noticed that in the main system interface, under friends, there was actually a friend.

This friend was Xia Ji!

But what use was this friend?

There was even... private chat?

She could send private messages... Yae Sakura was completely convinced.

After thinking for a moment, Yae Sakura tried sending a private message to Xia Ji.

"Are you there, Xia Ji?"

"Wha-what! Who's talking?"

Xia Ji's voice suddenly reached her ears, and Yae Sakura was also surprised.

"It's Yae Sakura. Can you hear me?"

"Lord Yae? Where are you? How come I can't see you?"

"I'm not in Tanihara Castle..."

After chatting with Xia Ji for a few sentences, Yae Sakura was truly convinced!

It felt like a transmission over a thousand miles, or like making a phone call.
