"Return..."
Hamura Otsutsuki followed Kaguya to the place where the Sage of Six Paths had been shattered and began casting his technique.
His hands moved back and forth through the air.
Soon, specks of starlight began gathering from all around.
After this continued for half a minute, the outline of a humanoid figure appeared before Hamura Otsutsuki.

Kaguya's pupils trembled slightly as she looked at the humanoid outline before her, its eyes closed.
"Just a little more..."
Cold sweat beaded on Hamura Otsutsuki's forehead, and the hand guiding the starlight through the air was already beginning to ache.

Only then did Hagoromo Otsutsuki notice that, besides Hamura Otsutsuki, his mother Kaguya Otsutsuki was also standing before him.
A bitter smile appeared on his face. "It seems I really didn't die after all."

Hamura scratched his head awkwardly. "Mother... weren't you the one who told me to bring Brother back?"
"What are you talking
