I Don't Want to Be a Valkyrie

"Love my ass! Don't call me Big Sister."

"Okay, Big Sister! Got it, Big Sister!" Hiyamaru quickly nodded upon hearing this.

(?`∧?)

Yae Sakura punched Hiyamaru on the head.

I regret this. Can I return it? I'll even take 10 Crystals!

Chapter 18: The Days Without Big Sister, Missing Her

"That hurts! Big Sister."

Hiyamaru clutched its head with both hands, its large eyes welling up with tears as it looked at Yae Sakura.

"I told you not to call me Big Sister. Call me Big Sister again, and I swear I'll cook you, make you into roasted fox!"

"Roasted... roasted fox? Big Sister, I was wrong! Don't turn me into roasted fox, fox meat doesn't taste good!"

Upon hearing this, Hiyamaru let out a wail and hugged Yae Sakura's leg.

"You're really too much!"

Big Sister, Big Sister. Yae Sakura had nothing but those two words echoing in her mind.

"Big Sister, is this the different world? That's great! I can stay by Big Sister's side often from now on." Hiyamaru gently let go of Yae Sakura and looked around, appearing very happy.

"..." Not good! It's not good at all...

Being called "Big Sister, Big Sister" all day made Yae Sakura feel like she was going crazy.

"Big Sister, do you know? I missed you so much!"

"Ever since the open-world Schicksal HQ opened, you haven't returned to Yae Village. I haven't seen you for over half a year.

Every day, I just stayed in the shrine, hoping Big Sister would come back. But I waited and waited every day, and Big Sister never returned...

I know Big Sister has an Ai-chan at Schicksal HQ who accompanies you just like I do, so Big Sister wouldn't be lonely, but... I'm just so unwilling.

I really miss the days when we collected things and took on commissions together in Yae Village..."

As she spoke, tears began to fall from Hiyamaru's eyes.

Hiyamaru loved grilled meat and fried tofu the most. But in the days without Big Sister, the fried tofu and grilled meat... Hiyamaru couldn't taste anything.

"Sigh... Alright! Don't cry..."

Seeing Hiyamaru actually crying, Yae Sakura felt a little flustered.

It was true that she hadn't visited Sakura Samsara for over half a year, having been busy grinding Schicksal HQ.

After all, she had almost finished everything in Sakura Samsara, and Schicksal HQ offered more worthwhile things to grind.
