"Kaguya, are you all right?"
Upon opening the door, she saw only Princess Kaguya sitting quietly on the floor, looking like a Yamato Nadeshiko. Beside her was a beautiful woman with the air of a mature older sister type.
The two of them looked remarkably harmonious together.
"Who are you?"
Fu Hua narrowed her eyes, warily staring at the unfamiliar woman before her. From this woman... Fu Hua sensed a considerable amount of power.
"Immortal Mother, you're back!"
"Let me introduce you. This is my teacher, Yagokoro Eirin! She is my most important family in the Moon Capital." Seeing Fu Hua return, Princess Kaguya hurriedly rose and went to her side, introducing her teacher.
"Teacher?"
Fu Hua remembered now. Kaguya had indeed mentioned that she had a teacher in the Moon Capital whom she cared about deeply. She had not expected it to be the woman before her.
"I am Yagokoro Eirin, and I was also Kaguya's former guardian. It is a pleasure to meet you!" Yagokoro Eirin likewise stood and came to Kaguya's side, speaking to Fu Hua politely in a gentle tone.
Though she could not sense Fu Hua's power at the moment, she knew this immortal... was very strong. After all, she had witnessed it with her own eyes...
"Is that so? But Kaguya is my adopted daughter now. Are you here to take her back to the Moon Capital? Then... you'll have to ask whether Kaguya herself is willing. Otherwise... no one can force her." Fu Hua could not shake the feeling that this woman had come to steal her daughter away.
"Immortal Mother, Teacher isn't here to take me away."
Hearing Fu Hua's words, Kaguya was very happy...
But she was also worried that Fu Hua might misunderstand her teacher, so she hurriedly explained.
"Hm?"
