TSSITWON Chapter 125: Kurisu's Past 2
🕑 Added 2024-12-11 12:05:15 +0000 UTCNo one cared about Kurisu. Without support, without direction, Kurisu was on the verge of giving up.
Until finally, Kurisu met Mira. Mira was the only person willing to extend a hand when the world seemed to shut its doors tightly.
Mira taught Kurisu how to survive, introducing her to the Five Great Nations and cultures different from what Kurisu knew.
Kurisu owed everything to Mira. In return, Kurisu decided to become stronger. Under Mira's guidance, Kurisu began training to become a ninja.
The journey was not easy. At first, Kurisu was just an ordinary Genin, but she continued to grow, facing various challenges, and slowly becoming tougher.
While training, Kurisu began looking for ways to make money. From helping people around her to starting an unconventional business—a Brothel.
Although many looked down on such a business, Kurisu saw it as a way to provide protection for those who had nowhere else to go, just as Mira had protected Kurisu before.
However, that happiness did not last long. Mira, who had returned to Konoha to fulfill her duties as a member of the Senju Clan, came back with a body full of wounds. Mira was being pursued by people targeting her clan members for inhumane purposes.
Seeing Mira injured, Kurisu did not hesitate. Without a second thought, Kurisu vowed to protect Mira, no matter the risk. Mira was the one who had once saved Kurisu, and now it was Kurisu's turn to repay that kindness.
...
That night in the cave, Kurisu took a deep breath, reflecting on all the steps she had taken up to that point. Kurisu looked at Mira, who was sleeping peacefully in the corner of the room, her body still wrapped in bandages. In her heart, Kurisu promised that she would not let anyone hurt Mira again.
"Miss Kurisu, we are ready." A woman's voice broke the silence in the cave. The woman stepped closer with a firm expression, but there was a glimmer of tension hidden behind her eyes.
"I understand." Kurisu nodded slowly, then stood with a look of determination.
As Kurisu looked around, the women who had become part of her life stood there. They were the ones who had been with Kurisu through various storms, the ones Kurisu trusted more than anyone else.
But behind Kurisu's confidence, she could not hide the anxiety lurking in the corner of her heart.
They had to survive. All of them. Until they safely arrived in Yugakure.
Without wasting time, the group left the cave. Their steps were quick yet silent, following the dark path through the forest. The thick night still enveloped them, but dawn was peeking over the horizon. They knew time was not on their side.
The silence of the forest felt strange. Too strange.
Kurisu kept running ahead, but her eyes were observing every shadow and movement around her. The forest at night was indeed quiet, but tonight the silence seemed to carry an unseen threat.
Kurisu felt a different chill, not from the wind, but from a bad omen gripping her heart.
A few hours later, they finally arrived in the Land of Hot Water, leaving the borders of Konohagakure and Yugakure behind. Their journey so far had been undisturbed, but instead of feeling relieved, Kurisu's mood grew more restless.
"Is this too smooth?" Kurisu thought. There were no signs of danger, yet this silence felt like an invisible trap.
"Pick up the pace!" Kurisu finally broke the silence, her voice calm but filled with urgency. "Use your chakra to speed up!"
Without question, all the women in Kurisu's group obeyed the command.
