Eumi's Journey to the forbidden mountains (3/5)

As we finally go to where the shrine is at, sister Xiare speaks, "Eh?! The shrine is floating?!"

Although I saw it earlier before sister Xiare did, I merely remain innocent as usual and pretend to not know anything, saying, "Eh? How are we gonna get to the shrine?" I lied to sister Xiare. Tee hee~

But the problem still remains— How do we get to the other side? Should this lady hug the chains and the shrine gates as this lady go to the other side? Uuuuuuu…

I must hurry! I cannot let go of such event tonight! Uuuuuh!

Without thinking, I let go of sister Xiare's hand and keep the blood-colored crystal on my other hand in my pocket. Yes, this lady's kimono has a pocket which acts similarly to the ones the rich masters' pouches can store huge amounts of items. This was gifted to me by my master.

Although the one that gave this kimono to me is the sect master instead of my master. I even remember the sect master's words when sh— he gave me this kimono. Oops, I almost slip up there.

"This is your master's gift to you, Hyare for being his sole disciple. Take care of it as this gift your master gave to you is something that even kings from other countries and states could not afford in their entire lifetime."

This was the words the sect master said to me as he gave my master's gift to me. Pretty cool right? This lady thinks so too.

Anyways, as I put the crystal in my pocket, I roll up my sleeves as I prepare to go up to the shrine by hugging the chains tightly. Although sister Xiare looks at me with her dumbfounded face, she also rolls up her sleeves as she too prepares herself to go to the shrine.

Oh! I forgot the tell you that in front of us lies a cliff that would lead us to our entire doom. Although it's kinda scary to look at, with the power of determination, I could overcome my fear and go to the wretched place!

Oops, this lady here did not mean to curse at something. Forgive this lady, kay? Tee hee~

Tightly, I grasp the giant chains being chained up at the ground and began hugging them like a monkey. As I look at the water below, I gulp as I knew that I would not survive if I fall.

You could be reading stolen content. Head to Royal Road for the genuine story.

Well, think about this: What if someone just casually drops you at over two-thousand meters? That would mean the end of you right? That's what this lady here is feeling right now.

As I hug the giant chains and start moving very slowly, I took a quick glance to see how is sister Xiare holding on. Eh? Why is she walking on the chains like an acrobatic on a tightrope? Is she not fearing death?

I once again gulp hard as I think about sister Xiare fall down and die. Just the mere sight of it makes me puke.

Slowly, I try moving as carefully as possible to avoid falling. Sister Xiare however, was instead seeking death by tightrope walking the chains. Although she's having such a difficult time trying to get to the first shrine gate in front of us, she looks like she's having fun instead.

Weird. Sister Xiare is truly weird. This lady cannot even imagine what's going on inside sister Xiare's head right now.

As I slowly reach the first floating shrine gate, a wind suddenly shows up and blows everything on its path, causing the chains to move. Because I am tightly hugging the chains like a daughter hugging tightly her mother, I was safe from falling. As for sister Xiare however…

"Eeehhh!!" I hear sister Xiare's cry. I look back and instead of seeing sister Xiare, I instead see nothing but thin air on the other side of the chains. Eh? Where's sister Xiare?

I look down below and I also saw nothing falling to the sea. Wait… did the wind blew sister Xiare to god-knows-where?!

I feel my heart beating loud as soon as I think that I'm the only one left. Nuuuu! Please don't leave this lady! This lady is good! I am a kind lady! So please, don't leave this lady wuwu…

Silently, I slowly head to the first shrine gate with my tears slowly falling. As my tears silently falling on my face, I gently wipe my tears out and continue walking. Wuwu... This lady will not steal sweets again from sister Xiare so please, forgive me god for doing bad thing wuwu.

After I'm finally in front of the first shrine gate, I slowly change my position from crawling the giant chains to hugging the gate as I go to the side part of the shrine gate to get to the other chain chained on the other side the first shrine gate.

"Steady and slowly. Steady and slowly." I murmur softly to ease my worries from falling. Please, if there's anyone here, please save this poor lady from falling.

Finally going to the second chain, I silently cheer up as this lady here actually manages to cross the shrine gate by hugging it. Yay! This lady is truly smart.

However, just as I am about to cheer myself by softly murmuring it, a wind once again blows the chains and the floating shrine gates, causing them to move. Uuuuuu! This lady here is tired of being almost blown by the wind!

Just as I slowly reach the other chain, I fell because of my grip at the shrine gate is not tight enough.

"Ahhhhhh!" I cry as I fall. Is this the end of me? Am I truly going to die? Wuwuwuwu! This lady here is now going to die! Why?! Why is this happening to me?

Sect master, master, and my friends, please, do not forget this lady as she is now going to leave the world. I'm truly sorry for saying my farewell suddenly. I truly am.

Silently, I prepare for the worse— dying
