"To them, I am now a relic of the past that they want to erase. So why do I exist and survive? Every time I think about this, I can't find the answer, but... As long as I am alive, I need a reason, otherwise it's no different from being dead..."

Sakura slowly turned around and looked at him in silence.

"So I came to this conclusion. I exist to kill people other than myself. In the fear of being assassinated at any time, I finally settled down. By constantly killing assassins, I realized the reason for my life. I only fight for myself and love myself. As long as I think of others as existing to make me realize this, then the world can't be more beautiful. As long as there are people in this world who can make me feel happy to be alive and who deserve to be killed... my existence will not disappear."

Watching the sand slowly flowing out of Gaara, Sakura knew that Gaara was in a very unstable mood at the moment. She then walked straight towards Gaara, and looking at the red in his eyes and his shocked expression, Sakura couldn't help but hug him in her arms.

"Although I don't understand why this is happening... ...but there must be a reason to live... ...just like your absolute defense. Although sand is lifeless, it is always protecting you and preventing you from getting hurt when facing danger."

"Protect... me?"

"I heard from Kankuro that your sand will automatically form a layer of protection without blind spots when you are in danger. I think this situation is not innate... ...but acquired by others..."

"..." Confusion appeared in Gaara's eyes. It was the first time that someone could get close to him without being repelled by his sand... Was it really like this?

Then, as Sakura was holding her hand, she felt it sink, and then she sat on the ground... No, how could she fall asleep like this?

Looking at Gaara sleeping, Sakura suddenly felt helpless. Was there something on her that could help her sleep? Otherwise, why was it so outrageous? It was impossible that the Sand Village didn't allow people to sleep well every day, right? That was too much. Wasn't it just using people as tools to complete tasks, and then using a round-robin strategy to destroy them after the task was completed?

This has given me two dark circles under my eyes...

The problem was that Gaara looked so small, and Sakura was a little overwhelmed by his sudden fall. She could only slide down slowly against the wall until she landed on the ground.

"System, is there something in me that can make the tailed beasts... not go berserk? Or... is the chakra in my body the medium?"

"Host... ...."

"I was thinking, the last time Gaara touched me, I fell asleep. I've been sleeping all this time. Even today, I fell asleep again when he touched me... I don't remember what Gaara experienced before... Is it because of you?"

"Host, the speed at which you forget is directly proportional to the speed at which you integrate into this place. If you want to stay here, your previous memories will begin to blur."
