"I know. But we must not attack the people of the Land of Pi," His Majesty said.
"But..." The Guard's face was full of resentment.
"What I want is peace. Once war breaks out, many people will die."
"Find a way to negotiate with the people of the Land of Pi. If anyone dares attack them, execute them in my name," His Majesty said grimly.
But His Majesty had not expected his restraint to look like weakness to the Land of Pi. Faced with a ruler they considered weak, its people struck with increasing speed.
Morning sunlight streamed in.
Uchiha Yin opened his eyes and looked at Kaguya Otsutsuki lying in his arms.
Time had flown. In the blink of an eye, half a year had passed.
Uchiha Yin could faintly sense that he would soon return to his own era.
And Uchiha Yin had, in the end, fallen for Kaguya Otsutsuki—a woman whose face was usually expressionless, but whose eyes spoke volumes.
At first, Uchiha Yin had wanted Kaguya Otsutsuki out of possessiveness. Now he genuinely liked her.
Only yesterday had Uchiha Yin truly acknowledged Kaguya Otsutsuki as his wife and made her his woman.
Carefully setting Kaguya Otsutsuki down, Uchiha Yin went into the kitchen.
Ding! Congratulations, host. You have completed the Main Quest. Rewards: advanced combat techniques and keen combat instincts.
After Uchiha Yin left, Kaguya Otsutsuki opened her eyes.
Emotions flickered in her eyes. Kaguya Otsutsuki felt a little unsettled.
Just yesterday, she had finally completed that Main Quest.
Yet Kaguya Otsutsuki could feel that she had gained far more than the Main Quest rewards.
Chapter 214: Honesty
Ding! Congratulations, Master. Combat technique +2, combat instinct +2.
The system's voice sounded in Uchiha Yin's mind.
Another reward?
*Combat technique +2, combat instinct
