That's why Yalin uses his talent so casually.
Well, it wouldn't be a big deal if Kaguya found out, but it would still be quite troublesome to explain.
As they passed through the streets, Yalin selected some desserts based on Kaguya's preferences.
The Otsutsuki clan can survive without ordinary food, but they do not deliberately refuse to eat.
Even while in a critically injured and near-death state, Shiki still had the interest to drink red wine and eat steak, thoroughly enjoying life.
.....
On the Divine Tree, Kaguya withdrew her gaze.
Although she was puzzled by Yalin's sudden return and subsequent deep sleep, there was no need to ask him unless he told her on his own initiative.
However, the ninjutsu he created was indeed quite interesting.
While it cannot compare to the power and wonder of divine arts, and its effect on the Otsutsuki is only average, its strength lies in its complexity and diversity, with an extremely rich array of effects, sufficient to deal with gods and monsters.
Moreover, it has only been five years since he came into contact with chakra. For the Otsutsuki, this period of time is quite short.
If Yalin were to become a member of the Otsutsuki clan, with his talent, he might grow up very quickly and even have the opportunity to become one of the most powerful Otsutsuki.
Even those at the highest levels couldn't stop his growth; it's truly a pity he was born on this planet.
While feeling regretful, Kaguya couldn't help but smile.
This is a treasure she discovered herself; those Otsutsuki clans wouldn't have such insight.
Those people would only plant trees to absorb all the planet's energy, and then move on to the next habitable planet to repeat the process.
Until er蹴/镏]诌伊伞罢六成 became a god who transcended the universe and dimensions.
The will of the Otsutsuki clan always permeated every member.
Even she, this "traitor," may not have been without such thoughts.
As Kaguya pondered this, Yarin arrived at the Divine Tree, carrying a large bag of sweets for a casual chat.
Even though the army of the Forest Kingdom was at war, the atmosphere in the capital city of the Ancestral Kingdom did not change much. Everyone was doing their duty and living as usual.
Therefore, it is easy to buy a wide variety of desserts.
For the people of the Forest Kingdom, the biggest difference is that they occasionally hear news of victories from the front lines, and how many countries have sworn to submit.
The maps haven't been updated yet; they're planning to replace them completely after unification.
No army of any other nation on this planet can compare to that of the Forest Kingdom.
Moreover, with that famous person around, they weren't afraid at all.
......
"Lord Kaguya, don't you get bored sitting here all alone?"
As Kaguya picked up a cookie and slowly chewed it, Ayrin's words came, causing her to stop for the moment.
"I will tell you the reasons for this once you have completely pacified the world and brought peace."
Kaguya said, then continued to enjoy the cookies.
From an energy perspective, it offers no benefit whatsoever, but the taste is rather good.
The humans on this planet always manage to create something special.
After tasting several pastries, she offered a rather casual explanation.
“When we first met, you told me the story of the Tale of the Bamboo Cutter. My situation is similar to that of Princess Kaguya, who shares the same name, only much worse.”
Soon we'll all have to be honest about everything, so it shouldn't be a problem to let slip a few hints now.
This is to prepare Yalin mentally.
"I see... Are there any Celestials in this world similar to Lady Kaguya?" Yalin said with a sudden realization, then changed his tone and began to guide Princess Kaguya.
"...No, those celestial beings you think of are all in the starry sky." Princess Kaguya paused for a moment after hearing this, then warned solemnly.
"Their arrival is not a good thing. If you ever encounter someone like me, don't hesitate, run away at all costs."
In her eyes, although Yalin's strength was progressing very quickly, he was still too immature compared to the Otsutsuki members whose lifespans were often hundreds or thousands of years.
In the short term, they simply do not have the qualifications to compete with their own people.
"If that really happens, I'll rush over as soon as I sense the violent fluctuations in your chakra and try my best to hold on," Kaguya said seriously, without a hint of joking.
"So, those celestial beings are all your enemies?"
Yalin spoke thoughtfully, then said solemnly, "Lord Kaguya, please rest assured, your enemy is my enemy. No matter how strong they are, I will face them alongside you."
This foreshadowing will provide him with a legitimate reason when he solves the problem in the future.
After all, Kaguya's enemy is my enemy. Isn't it only natural that I help Kaguya deal with her troubles? (laughs)
Upon hearing this, Kaguya opened her mouth as if to warn him again, but then she couldn't bring herself to speak.
His gaze softened as he looked at Yalin.
This affection was so fervent that she couldn't refuse.
Given her personality, it's unlikely she wouldn't consider Yalin her only friend.
How could they possibly be willing to part with even a tiny amount of chakra?
As for the other party's growth, that was an unexpected bonus.
Kaguya felt that Yarin's attitude made her realize that this friend also regarded her as his most important friend.
That's enough.
However... looking at Yalin's increasingly handsome and mature face, and his extremely determined expression, Kaguya was somewhat stunned again.
Compared to the young daimyo he once was, Yalin has undoubtedly grown up completely and become a very handsome young man.
Given that humans live for a hundred years, Yalin should be getting married by now.
Based on her observations of the humans on this planet, ordinary people of Yalin's age would have already married and even had children, passing on their lives.
Human couples have all sorts of ways of getting along, but most couples with good relationships regard each other as the most important person in their lives.
Perhaps one day in the future, Yalin will find a suitable human woman. Then they will marry and become the most important person in each other's lives.
Wouldn't her friend end up in second place?
Once she realized this, Kaguya felt inexplicably irritated, with a sense of resentment like a cabbage she had personally raised being eaten by a pig.
However, she couldn't stop Yalin from doing so.
Without this stance, one cannot bring oneself to speak out.
As she pondered this, Kaguya's originally indifferent expression kept changing, her pure white eyes staring straight at Ayrin without saying a word.
"Lord Kaguya?" Yalin sensed Kaguya's emotions changing suddenly and inexplicably.
After all, he only had a general sense of it; he wasn't truly reading minds.
"What's on your mind?" he asked tentatively.
Such a dramatic change in emotion is quite rare in the past five years.
Even when she first gave Yarin chakra, it was just a simple feeling of reluctance and heartache, not the repeated feelings she has now.
"It's nothing serious!" Kaguya's tone suddenly rose, as if she had done something wrong.
Realizing he had lost his composure, he fell silent again, making the atmosphere inside the sacred tree quiet and oppressive.
Her loss of composure is truly unlike that of an Otsutsuki.
Kaguya was unaware that over the years, she had become increasingly human in personality.
"How's your progress in pacifying the world going?" Kaguya asked, trying to cover up the previous topic.
"Progress is going well so far, with most countries having pledged allegiance. Only a few remote or overseas islands remain outside our jurisdiction."
Yalin understood perfectly and cooperated.
The four legions launched expeditions across the continent, and the officials they trained followed closely behind to supervise and govern the conquered nations. They imprisoned the former daimyo and nobles, dealt with their past crimes, and then promulgated a series of laws.
Thanks to the cultural invasion of the Forest Kingdom over the years, the local people did not strongly resist it; on the contrary, they looked forward to the arrival of the Forest Kingdom.
Those basic manuals alone made their lives much easier. In the mouths of tourists, the Forest Kingdom was portrayed as a paradise on earth, inspiring countless people to yearn for it.
Compared to the exploitation in their original countries, it is only natural that they would make such a choice.
Yalin's past strategies are now paying off.
Everything is proceeding smoothly, and it is expected that the world will be completely conquered within six months.
"Not bad," Kaguya said curtly.
In the past, it was Yalin who brought up the topics; it would be too much to ask her to speak up now.
Fortunately, Yalin took the initiative to speak up and defuse the situation.
"Lord Kaguya, after the war is completely over, would you be willing to travel the world with me?"
I'll give you a special gift then; I'm sure you'll like it.
Yalin spoke these words in an extremely mysterious tone.
Otsutsuki Isshiki's life would definitely satisfy Princess Kaguya.
"I'm sure I'll like it?" Kaguya was surprised by Yalin's confidence.
The only thing she cared about on this planet was Yalin.
The only person she could like was the one in front of her.
Could it be that he's planning to give himself away?
Kaguya thought to herself, then fell silent, finding the idea far too far-fetched.
Then he suddenly remembered what Gamamaru had said years ago and fell silent for a moment.
That's unlikely; that toad is just trying to mislead people.
However, my heart started beating faster than I could have imagined.
I was actually looking forward to it?
