Kirito looked at Kazumi Kuroki's firm eyes at this moment and hesitated. But he immediately thought that if he didn't save Kazumi Kuroki's emotions now, then in the future, if he wanted to help Kazumi Kuroki resolve this heart demon, it would be more difficult than ascending to the sky. So now, he also gritted his teeth and said to Kazumi Kuroki: "Kazumi, you say it, I'm listening."
Seeing Kirito's decisiveness, Kazumi Kuroki also seemed to have made a great decision at this moment. She also gritted her teeth and said to Kirito: "Well, since you really want to hear it, then I'll tell you. After you hear it, you have to be mentally prepared. The reason why I'm like this is all because of you!"
Kirito was originally squatting in front of Kazumi Kuroki. When he heard Kazumi Kuroki suddenly say this sentence, he was so frightened by Kazumi Kuroki that he directly stood up and took a few steps back. His face was full of shock. Kirito said to Kazumi Kuroki in a trembling voice: "I, what happened to me, Kazumi, why did you say that?!"
Kazumi Kuroki, who was usually frightened by Kirito, would laugh or smile at Kirito. But now, Kazumi Kuroki was still expressionless, without a ripple on her face. She said to Kirito word by word: "Yes, Kirito, it's because of you, it's because of you that the emotions that I have been accumulating for so long suddenly exploded. You are the fuse of my emotions!"
At this time, Kirito also felt very shocked, but he quickly calmed down. Kazumi Kuroki was actually right. If it wasn't because he was angry with Kazumi Kuroki, Kazumi Kuroki wouldn't be like this because of this matter, let alone be as desperate as now.
So Kirito stood there and restored his calm expression. He quietly looked at Kazumi Kuroki in front of him, waiting for Kazumi Kuroki's next words.
Kazumi Kuroki didn't seem to want to hear Kirito's answer. He only saw Kazumi Kuroki say to herself: "When I was very young, I worked very hard, very hard, hoping to be the most successful one among everyone. Although my talent wasn't good, I believed that as long as I worked hard, I would definitely succeed!"
Kazumi Kuroki paused and then said: "However, when I grew up, I met a person. No matter how hard I worked, I couldn't surpass him. He was like a mountain. That person was very similar to you. Although his talent wasn't as good as yours, it was also very good."
"Later, I found that no matter how hard I worked, no matter how I competed, I couldn't compare to that person. What I spent half a day to complete was easily done by him in a moment. From then on, I felt that he was a big mountain in my life, a mountain that I couldn't surpass."
"Then, he left the place where I was, and I slowly forgot about him. But this matter has always been in my heart. There has always been this thorn in my heart, this thorn that can't be removed."
"Later, when I met you, I thought that we were all the same, the same person. Although you learned things faster than me, if I worked hard, it seemed that I was about the same as you. But it wasn't until that time when Yamamoto said about your talent that I realized that I was overthinking."
"I couldn't compare with you at all. You were like the dazzling sun in the sky, and I was just a dim star that fell into the mortal world. With such a gap, how could I compare?"
"However, at that time, I didn't take this matter to heart, because this matter couldn't suppress me and make me like this. What really made me feel hopeless was that after you overdrew your body again, you didn't become weak for a few days. Instead, you improved your overall strength. From then on, I felt a little hopeless."
"And just now, you used half a day to unravel the secret that I spent several days studying. This made me feel as if a huge mountain had appeared in front of me. The two of you are like two huge mountains blocking my way, making me feel suffocated. And you, you are taller and wider than him, making me feel even more despair."
After Kazumi Kuroki finished speaking, she looked directly at the sky. Her eyes were empty, and no one knew what she was looking at.
After Kirito listened to Kazumi Kuroki's words, he also lowered his head and pondered, as if he was thinking about something. He didn't expect that his very ordinary actions could have such a big impact on the people around him. It could affect the mood of the people around him, and even the hope of the future!
But Kirito also knew that now was not the time for him to be sentimental. He had to seize the time to resolve Kazumi Kuroki's emotions. Otherwise, it would only drag on for a long time, and the longer it dragged on, the more difficult it would be. So now, no matter what Kazumi Kuroki said, he must take the right medicine and let Kazumi Kuroki recover her mood!
So Kirito pondered for a moment, and said to Kazumi Kuroki in front of him, "Kazumi, I understand what you said. I have also experienced the things you said, but shouldn't you think about it carefully? Are you doing these things for yourself, or to surpass others?"
Kirito paused. Looking at Kazumi Kuroki's expression, he knew that there was a turning point, so he said to Kazumi Kuroki, "Kazumi, I know that you are feeling very uncomfortable now, but we have to look forward now. There are many things that I can't compare to you, and the person you mentioned can't either. Everyone has their own value, do you understand?"
At this time, Kazumi Kuroki also looked at Kirito. When she saw Kirito's determined face, there was an inexplicable peace of mind in her heart.
Kirito saw Kazumi Kuroki's reaction, and also said, "Kazumi, it's good that you can listen now. You have to remember, there are many things that I can't compare to you. Between people, it's not just a competition of strength, there are many things that can be compared. What's more, we don't need to compare with others!"
"We have to live for ourselves, why should we live so tirelessly?
Right, Kazumi! "
When Kazumi Kuroki heard this, a layer of haze that had been covering her heart was instantly lifted. She saw him stand up in an instant, as if full of strength. The confusion and despair in his eyes also disappeared in an instant. At this moment, he was also filled with determination.
He said to Kirito, "Yes, Kirito, you are right, we only live this once, why should we always compare with others?
Living is to be happy, we have to live for ourselves! "
