Chapter 37 - Chapter 37: Pakura's Heart

Early in the morning, before the sky was completely bright, Rasa had already packed his luggage.

He wrapped himself up tightly.

Wearing a yellow trench coat on the outermost layer.

When Rasa arrived at the most famous defense system of the Sand Village, the One-Line Sky...

He saw Karura, Yasha Lian, Pakura, Akatsuki, and others as expected.

Yesterday, Rasa asked Akatsuki to notify them for him.

So he wasn't surprised that they came to see him off this morning.

Seeing Rasa appear, Karura's eyes lit up.

Ignoring the gaze of the dozens of ninjas silently watching around...

Karura trotted directly to Rasa and hugged him!

She just established a relationship with Rasa yesterday, but today her boyfriend was going far away.

This made Karura feel very sad.

But she also knew.

This was the fate of ninjas.

They were always apart more than together, especially in this special period.

The two hugged silently for several minutes until Rasa gently pushed Karura away.

Karura took a half step back. Her eyes were red, but she wore a gentle smile on her face:

"Be careful on this mission."

Rasa only asked Akatsuki to tell Karura and the others...

That he was going out on a mission from Chiyo.

He didn't tell them that leaving the village was entirely his personal wish.

So they all thought...

Rasa went out because he accepted some important mission.

This was also Rasa saving himself trouble.

And also covering up his tracks to some extent.

The Chiyo siblings also tacitly accepted this.

Yasha Lian waited until her sister spoke before walking to Rasa's side and taking his hand:

"Brother-in-law, why would Elder Chiyo send you on a mission at this time? No matter how important the mission is, you shouldn't be sent out at such a critical moment."

Rasa smiled at Yasha Lian and said vaguely:

"This mission is very important, a top-secret mission. Apart from me, it's hard to find other suitable candidates in the village."

After saying this, Rasa gently broke free from Yasha Lian's delicate hands.

He walked to Pakura, who had been standing silently and acting extremely abnormally.

Rasa patted her round shoulder boldly and said:

"Why aren't you talking? The expression on your face doesn't look like the one you should have."

"And why are you wearing a jacket?"

Pakura, with a trace of melancholy on her face and a jacket draped over her body...

Covering the exposed skin on her back tightly.

She seemed to react only now.

She looked at Rasa with complex eyes, and a smile suddenly appeared on her slightly cool face:

"Be careful outside. You haven't been on many missions before. Don't fall for someone's dirty tricks accidentally."

"As for wearing a jacket..."

"Hmph, do you think I don't know your thoughts? Last night I saw you hesitating to speak about my clothes several times. Considering you are my best friend, I did this."

After saying this, Pakura ignored other people's gazes.

She gave Rasa a big hug directly.

Because the two hugged too tightly...

Her full breasts were squeezed into a meat pie shape.

Karura raised her eyebrows slightly. The gentle smile seemed to freeze for a moment.

But soon the smile became even brighter.

Karura walked slowly in front of the two with graceful steps, seeming not to care at all:

"Rasa, you must stay at my house after you come back."

Hearing this, Pakura, who had recovered her spirit, recalled the conversation she heard not long ago.

Pakura frowned involuntarily but still didn't loosen her embrace, just whispering:

"When did you confirm the relationship?"

Karura narrowed her eyes and put her hands together:

"Big Sister Pakura, we confirmed the relationship when he went to our house for dinner yesterday afternoon."

"Oh, is that so?"

Saying this sentence which sounded emotionless...

Pakura gently loosened her embrace on Rasa and took a step back.

Rasa smiled awkwardly at Karura.

He waved to Akatsuki, who was wearing an eagle mask, and then walked straight out.

Akatsuki, who hadn't spoken a word, bowed deeply to Rasa's back.

Then she used the Body Flicker Jutsu and disappeared from the spot.

"Big Sister Pakura, do you want to visit our house?"

Karura asked Pakura, who was standing still and looking at Rasa's retreating figure with complex eyes.

After Rasa left, Pakura seemed to have lost all her vitality. She just waved her hand listlessly:

"No need, thanks. I'm going to the village library to read some books."

After saying this, Pakura walked elegantly in a certain direction.

Although she looked listless, her posture was still upright.

Pakura had been troubled by that strange dream for three consecutive nights.

Originally, she wanted to talk to Rasa about this situation just now.

But when she heard that Karura and Rasa had confirmed their relationship...

Pakura felt very painful in her heart.

Like a thorn piercing her heart, it hurt severely.

Under this circumstance, she wasn't in the mood to tell Rasa about this matter.

Now Pakura just wanted to go to the library.

She wanted to find a book that could answer the doubts in her heart.

Why did her heart hurt so much after hearing Rasa confirm a relationship with another woman?

Weren't she and Rasa just simple good friends?

Opposite-sex bros?

Logically speaking, she should be happy and wish Rasa and Karura well.

But why was she jealous, wanting to break them up?

Even wanting to curse and question them on the spot?

She wanted to see what was going on with her situation.

Pakura didn't have many friends.

And she didn't want to tell those friends about her doubts.

She just wanted to find the answer alone, not letting anyone know her situation.

"Sister, Pakura is too arrogant."

"Sister, you are both Jonin. You proactively showed kindness and invited her to your home, but she refused and left after saying just one sentence. That's too rude!"

Yasha Lian whispered indignantly only after Pakura walked away.

Karura shook her head gently and sighed:

"Trapped by love. It seems her situation is far more serious than I imagined."

"But the more so, the more I rejoice that my decision to take the initiative before was correct."

"Sister, what's wrong with Pakura? What's serious?"

"Hmm... Sister, you are too young. It's too early to understand these things. Wait a few more years."

"What! I'll be eighteen in half a year!"

Rasa walked quickly in the desert.

His figure formed afterimages in high-speed movement.

Although he could also use sand to lift himself and fly in mid-air to travel, which would be more convenient...

But in that way, this method would be too eye-catching. Rasa just wanted to go to the capital of the Land of Wind quietly.

The environment of the Land of Wind was like most deserts.

Although the territory was vast...

Most of it was desolate places where birds didn't shit.

Except for a few settlements...

Other places were not suitable for ordinary humans to survive.

Leaving the Sand Village was a boundless sea of sand.

Walking alone in this boundless sea of sand for a long time, ordinary people would easily suffer a mental breakdown.

But fortunately, Rasa wasn't an ordinary person.

A few years before transmigrating, Rasa was sent to an assembly line for an internship for half a year by that trash school.

The assembly line wasn't beautiful.

Twelve hours a day on the assembly line, repeating tens of thousands of movements, standing until his legs were weak every day.

In such repetitive and numbing labor...

Dozens of students ran away every day.

Rasa was also one of the twenty or so students who persisted until the end of the six-month internship among the more than a thousand students sent to the assembly line.

For Rasa, the boring time of running alone in the desert for a long time without anyone communicating with him was completely bearable.

Rasa multitasked, running while browsing the exchange page.

A few hours later, Rasa stopped abruptly, staring at the exchange page in front of him.

"Genjutsu and Soundproofing Barrier?"

"Not bad. Dozens of skill points, so cheap. I can exchange for it after midnight tonight."
