The clear, noble female voice echoed in the misty white space. Before Lin Yu could respond, the white mist in front of him parted automatically, and countless blue-white long hairs instantly wrapped him like a zongzi, leaving only his face exposed.
"I say, Kaguya, you don't have to be so hospitable, do you?"
Lin Yu grinned. Before him stood a woman of clear, beautiful features, exuding an innate noble aura just by standing there. This was Kaguya Otsutsuki, the goddess worshipped by everyone a thousand years ago.
Kaguya's gaze was cold, her long hair tightly restraining Lin Yu. She lightly parted her cherry lips and asked, "Who are you, and how did you get here?"
This was her will space, similar to a sealed space, but more special and mysterious. Logically, only she and the Ten-Tails could enter this place. Yet today, two uninvited guests had arrived.
Lin Yu was not worried about his situation at all and chuckled, "Don't you feel that we share the same aura?"
Kaguya frowned, her Byakugan activated, as if she truly saw a thread of chakra connecting tightly to herself from Lin Yu.
"Are you the only one who supplies me with chakra?"
Kaguya was astonished. The chakra she used to reshape her will and restore her soul power had all come from this person.
At first, she hadn't noticed, but now, she could indeed feel a sense of familiarity from Lin Yu.
After all, her entire consciousness had been reshaped by this person's chakra. Chakra was the refinement of a person's spiritual and physical energy, equivalent to the essence of that person.
"Perhaps we can sit down and talk, Kaguya, I..."
"You are quite good. I've decided to take you as my male consort. From now on, you will call me Master."
Kaguya's tone was cold, showing no sign that she thought her words were out of line. She was on the verge of revival, and the ninja world would soon return to her hands. Being her male consort should be an honor.
Of course, in Kaguya's mind, Lin Yu, as a male consort, was only useful for providing her with chakra. She was an ascetic.
Lin Yu looked at Kaguya, who was turning to leave, his eyes bewildered. It was the first time someone had told him they wanted to take him as a male consort to his face. She was indeed the Otsutsuki Kaguya.
Lin Yu followed her, patting her shoulder, "Kaguya, I..."
"How dare you! Call me Master!"
"Kaguya, I want to..."
"Call me Master!"
"Kaguya, I... Woo woo woo!"
Kaguya, rolling up the zongzi-like Lin Yu, slowly flew towards the depths. She wanted to properly educate this disobedient male consort and teach him about rules.
The closer they got to the depths, the louder the roars became. Although Lin Yu's mouth was covered by Kaguya, he knew what those sounds were: the will of two Ten-Tails fighting.
*Crack!*
Lin Yu was thrown onto the ground. Kaguya retracted her long hair and waved her hand, summoning a throne behind her. This was her will space; she could do as she pleased with a single thought.
"Male consort, what is your name?"
"Damn it..." If this wasn't Kaguya's will space, where she could do whatever she wanted, Lin Yu would have already taught this woman a lesson.
Lin Yu swore that once he got out, he would pin Kaguya down on the bed and grind her.
"What you were called before doesn't matter. Now that you are my male consort, I will bestow a name upon you. You shall be called..."
Lin Yu decided to break his oath. He would fight Kaguya here.
*Bang!*
Just as Kaguya was about to name Lin Yu, she felt her important symbol being grabbed. Flames erupted in her beautiful eyes.
"How dare you!"
The two smaller Ten-Tails fighting not far away were also stunned and stopped their battle.
Ten-Tails (Gedo Mazo): What a terrifying human, daring to grab that spot.
Ten-Tails (Seedling): What a great human! Beat up this bad woman!
Lin Yu held one of Kaguya's small horns and gently squeezed it. It was soft and elastic, surprisingly not hard, and felt exceptionally good.
However, before Lin Yu could fully experience it, a pale fist magnified in his pupils, instantly blowing up half of his body. No blood flowed, as this was merely a consciousness formed by chakra. There was no pain either; as long as the Lin Yu outside continued to supply chakra, the consciousness could be endlessly reformed.
In just a few seconds, Lin Yu reappeared intact before Kaguya, still holding one of her horns. He smiled and said, "I almost forgot, between us, I am the one in charge."
"Let go of me!"
Kaguya's Byakugan flared. Since her birth, no one had dared to grab her horn. This male consort actually...
The angrier Kaguya became, the more the perfect shape of her chest was outlined. She extended another hand and slapped at Lin Yu.
"I must remind you, this chakra is all for you. If you destroy me, it is Kaguya herself who will suffer the loss."
A pale, fair hand stopped before Lin Yu. Kaguya's expression was conflicted. This detestable male consort was right; if these chakras were scattered, she would be the one losing out.
But how could Kaguya accept being dominated by a male consort?
"Let go. I am magnanimous and can spare you this time."
Lin Yu reluctantly let go of Kaguya's small horn, but he had to do so for the sake of the conversation that was about to follow.
"Kaguya, I can help you resurrect, but you must agree to a few conditions. Firstly..."
"Call me Master!"
What the heck! This conversation cannot go on!
Lin Yu instantly pounced on Kaguya and pushed her onto the throne, grabbing her wrists with both hands and saying fiercely, "Who taught you this bad habit? Always calling me Master, Master. Say it to me!"
Kaguya, about to punch Lin Yu to pieces, hesitated again. This chakra was the power she used to reshape herself; she couldn't waste it.
Although it was only a consciousness, her sense of touch was still sharp. Never having been so close to a man's aura before, Kaguya flusteredly turned her head away, avoiding Lin Yu's gaze, and whispered, "Get off me!"
"No. Say 'Master,' and I'll..."
*Boom!*
Half of Lin Yu's body was blown away again. Kaguya's face regained its clear, noble expression. She sat upright on the throne, glared at the two stunned Ten-Tails nearby, and said sternly, "What are you looking at? Get aside!"
The two Ten-Tails immediately perked up their tails and scurried away fearfully, looking somewhat wronged.
Lin Yu's consciousness was restored again. He glanced at the two Ten-Tails and found it strange. The situation seemed different from what he had imagined. The art style was a bit too anime.
"Kaguya, can we talk properly now?"
Kaguya coldly glanced at Lin Yu. She no longer made Lin Yu call her Master, perhaps fearing he would "lose his beastly nature" and she would have to lose a lot of chakra again.
Seeing that Kaguya had finally calmed down, Lin Yu told her about the Otsutsuki invasion of the ninja world, adding fuel to the fire by saying that Isshiki, Urashiki, and Momoshiki had all come for her, Kaguya.
However, the facts were indeed as stated, except Lin Yu had dumped all the blame on Kaguya, while he himself was the unlucky fellow cleaning up after her.
"Before Isshiki died, he said that even stronger members of the Otsutsuki clan would go to the ninja world, and Kaguya, you wouldn't be able to escape then either. I think we can cooperate."
Kaguya did not reply, still staring at Lin Yu coldly.
"However, the basis of our cooperation is that you cannot arbitrarily destroy the ninja world. The current era is no longer the ancient past, Kaguya. You cannot arbitrarily absorb human chakra anymore."
Seeing Kaguya still not responding, Lin Yu frowned, "If you think my strength is not enough, we can make a pact. After we go out..."
"Before that, I still need to do one thing."
Kaguya slowly stood up, a smile blooming on her beautiful face, "You just reminded me. I need a lot of chakra to restore myself and cannot waste it like this."
As soon as she finished speaking, countless blue-white long hairs instantly bound Lin Yu's limbs. Kaguya sat on Lin Yu's body, reached out, and pinched Lin Yu's cheek. She exhaled like orchid near his ear and said,
"So, I've decided to drain you dry. What do you say, male consort!"
