Twelve Lies I Told Shingen Takeda Chapter 27: Shelter (Shingen POV)
The third of five "gacha" chapters, retelling the events of the past three chapters from Shingen's POV. These chapters sneak in unannounced between regular uploads.
Chapter Excerpt:
Yuki was worried – worried enough to send Katsu all the way up here. Shingen wasn’t going to leave, couldn’t leave in the middle of this project, but he could at least send back some reassurance. “Tell him this is worth the risk. And not to worry. I’m doing fine.” For now. He was doing fine for now.
She nodded and turned around without saying goodbye, slowly making her way down the muddy path toward the river. If all that had happened over the past couple of days, well, if it hadn’t happened, he would have been happy to see Katsu, might have taken a moment to show him what they were doing here. Actually, if things had been different, Katsu would have been with him up here from the start. But everything was different now.
His friend Katsu didn’t exist.
Because it had been Yuki who asked him, via Katsuko, not to push himself, Shingen decided to follow the suggestion and grab a few morsels to eat. He’d only just picked up a bowl of now-cold rice, when Sasuke appeared at his elbow, slipping into his vicinity in that silent way he had.
