--- Chapter 186 ---

"Tenji... My husband."

When those words escaped Kaguya's mouth, Yunlong's body was suddenly frozen, and a deep frown quickly was plastered onto his face.

Yunlong's eyes have become somewhat diluted with confusion. "...Huh?" He slowly tilted his head in puzzlement.

"You gotta be kidding me." He silently continued while looking at Kaguya.

Kaguya's face was full of contempt for a moment because Tenji's soul should have become one with her thousand of years ago, but it somehow escaped and reincarnated again into this world.

"That shouldn't be possible..." Kaguya muttered solemnly with a cold tone because her power is absolute.

She slowly activated her eyes to see what normal couldn't see and an imaginary chakra of her husband behind Yunlong, who faintly connected to him.

"It's really him." Kaguya's face became somewhat sad.

Kaguya quietly looked at Yunlong's face and quickly transferred herself through her dimensional portal to him.

"Don't you dare-," Yunlong was about to attack her, but Kaguya touched his face already.

She warmly caressed Yunlong's face and gazed at him peacefully like he was someone so close to her, which is weird for him.

"Tenji..." Kaguya softly cried.

'Why couldn't I move?!' Yunlong thought while feeling his entire mind blank for no reason.

A bizarre tingling sensation swept over Yunlong, and a familiar yet unfamiliar scene appeared in his mind.

.

.

Yunlong stood in a vast land, and a giant tree stood in the center with such a prominent atmosphere, but then hundreds of people set this land on fire with fiery arrows.

A pale-skinned woman followed with her maid hurriedly ran toward the god tree.

"Kaguya." Yunlong looked at the pale-skinned woman.

"At this moment, her servant got shot by an arrow and died... She arrived at the god tree and ate the chakra fruit."

As Yunlong finished his words, Kaguya's servant was suddenly impaled by fiery arrows and fell to the ground crudely.

"Aino!" Kaguya shouted with a worried tone.

"Go... Kaguya-sama. I'm sorry for being incompetent." Aino hardly supported herself and smiled slightly at Kaguya.

Kaguya looked at this scene with a somewhat sad yet indifferent expression. She turned around firmly and hurriedly ran again toward the god tree.

Yunlong blinked his eyes slightly, and he directly stood in a different point of view. He was definitely inside of someone's body, but he couldn't control even a finger.

"Kaguya!" The person shouted and quickly pursued Kaguya with a bow in his hand.

"Tenji..." Kaguya stopped below the god tree, and she already had the chakra fruit in her hand, which she harvested prematurely.

"Why did you kill those people, Kaguya?" Tenji asked solemnly. "I thought you already knew peace truly was needed in this land, but your action was different compared to your words."

Kaguya didn't respond to him for a second, and she silently returned, "What's peace for you actually, Tenji?"

"This nation needs its peace, but you are afraid of war."

"This nation requires its prosperity, but you blindly agree with another nation to mend their desires."

"Have you seen it yourself with your eyes? What actually happened when I killed those people."

Kaguya clenched her hands slightly in a cold fury because the only person who was close to her died because of Tenji's weak-willed mindset.

"Tenji, they called me a monster when I showed them my power." Kaguya coldly stared at certain people in the area. "But the truth is it was my self-defense."

"Do you expect me to stay quiet when they want to kill and defile me?" She indifferently continued, which shaken her supposed husband.

As an emperor who wanted peace for his land, Tenji was pretty naive and never thought about how cunning others could be, but it was already too late.

Tenji was an honorable and good-hearted person who always cared about his land and people.

He was very much a seeker of peace and was willing to do anything to avoid violence and death, even making peaceful negotiations with his enemies.

When they framed his own concubine as a monster, he quickly believed them and had never investigated the truth by himself.

It was because of the sense of peace Tenji needs to achieve, which ironically blinded him.

Tenji loved Kaguya dearly, but sadly his love for peace was much bigger than his love for her, which is why he needed to kill her so that he could preserve peace.

"I'm sorry, Kaguya." Tenji suddenly drew his katana out.

"Stupid..." Yunlong suddenly commented.

If this man is really his past incarnation, then he'd really be disappointed because such a man is worth nothing but death itself.

Yunlong has seen such leaders, but what happened to their lands later was nothing but pure chaos.

An emperor, Tenji, can be kind to his own people, but he should not ever think to welcome his enemy warmly because what they're doing next is biting him back.

"Kaguya. I needed you to die." Tenji firmly declared while pointing his katana at her.

Kaguya closed her eyes and took a bit of chakra fruit, which instantly awakened something within her.

The ground shook violently, and Kaguya slowly floated to the skies, shocking everyone in the area.

Kaguya had lost her faith in humanity but still longing for peace, so she could only do one thing to achieve that.

"I will shape this world by myself..." Kaguya's forehead suddenly slit slightly, and a Rinne-Sharingan appears upon her sudden awakening.

The red moon illuminated the entire world.

"Shine upon the world, Infinite Tsukuyomi."

Kaguya cast Infinite Tsukuyomi upon this world, and humanity quickly caught in the illusion world.

Tenji looked at his concubine with surprised looks and felt a sudden regret in his heart like he was losing something important.

"Peace over love."

"Regretted past, huh..." Yunlong could feel Tenji's hands trembling in guilt, but there was nothing he could do.

Kacha!

The surroundings started breaking like fragile glass, and Yunlong quietly looked at Kaguya with a calm expression.

--- Reality ---

Yunlong gradually opened his eyes and felt soft lips pressed against his lips, which caused him to sigh inside because he still couldn't move his body.

Kaguya hugged Yunlong's body in a somewhat intimate yet distant position and slowly parted her red lips away from him.

"Kaguya... Sadly, I'm not your husband." Yunlong calmly said while overloading his entire body with spiritual energy.

Kaguya frowned and silently asked, "So who are you? I'm pretty sure you're Tenji's reincarnation."

Yunlong looked at her and naturally answered, "I'm Yunlong."
