Chapter 21: Chapter 21 - The Rising Sun
November 28, 1875.
6 AM
After the life threatening battles. The bad weather changes and the sun finally rises in the morning.
Ryujiro and Vasilisa go together at royal palace.
They threaten Dowager Cixi's family. By saying that they would kill the 4 year-old emperor. If they don't let them take over the country.
The only strong fighter of the family was Cixi.. who was dead now.
They give up and Ryujiro takes over the throne.
The absolute emperor of China..
Ryujiro Kurogane.
Vasilisa smiles looking at him.
"Ryujiro.. I bet Yuki will be proud when she wakes up... The bullet did not touch her heart, fortunately.
It was close.. slightly above the heart. It didn't hit any major blood vessel or organ.
She will survive. But the recovery will take time."
Ryujiro: "That's great.. Vasilisa.."
-"Hmm?"
-"Can you tell her something when she wakes up?"
Vasilisa: "What?"
Ryujiro blushes: "That.. I.. I love her.
I'm afraid to tell her by myself."
Vasilisa smiles: "You're soft from inside.. But not me.. you'll be the one to tell her.
In case she loses her mind or faints.. you can calm her down."
Ryujiro: "Huhh.. Whatever..
The sun is rising again.."
