Chapter XVII: Exceptions within Exceptions
"Hey, that's the case, you can't go back, Wuye, huh...... How to say, congratulations. ”
"Hey, you're here to gloat on purpose! Fake Kaguya-hime! ”
"Who's an impostor!"
In the luxurious room on the innermost side of the Forever Pavilion, surrounded by many mansions, Takeya and Kaguya met again.
After some unnutritious mutual targeting, Kaguya gave up on Takeya's downfall and turned to other topics.
"Anyway, I've been bored lately."
The abandoned house-type Kaguyahime, who stared at the palm in his hand without squinting, turned over on the ground like a salted fish, and then fiddled with his two little feet, complaining casually:
"I don't have to worry about the moon anymore, but it's not interesting to live without a sense of crisis."
"You're shaking this guy, aren't you?"
Takeya had already learned from Yakumo Purple why Kaguya was hiding in the Lost Bamboo Forest, and he was also clear about the truth about Kaguya's "Ascension" thousands of years ago.
The other party is a sinner who took the "forbidden medicine" like Mei Hong, that is, the medicine of Penglai, and was banished to the ground, she liked the free lifestyle here, so she refused to return to the moon capital.
This is also the reason why Kaguya has been hiding in the Lost Bamboo Forest for thousands of years, and even with the last false moon, it is also a helpless move made because he is worried that the messenger of the Moon Capital will find his traces.
"By the way, aren't you a princess? Is it better to live in the moon than to live in hiding in Tibet like this? ”
"Of course."
Kaguya Bai Wu is the same, and slowly explains:
"Although the Moon City is luxurious, if you want to live in it, it is better to be on the ground."
"Really?"
Wu also couldn't understand Kaguya's realm, after all, he had received an ordinary civilian education since he was a child, and he couldn't feel the fatigue unique to such a real "high society".
"The Moon Capital is the purest place, and the Moon People regard 'purity' as a necessary part of their lives, and on the other hand, the earth is a place full of filth for them, so I was banished to the ground in the first place."
Speaking of the unpleasant past, Kaguya didn't have too much remorse, but felt a little lucky:
"Now that I think about it, it's nice to be banished, and thanks to that, I know that the ground is so much more comfortable than the moon."
"Also, if you're as powerful as you, you can do whatever you want on the ground."
"Do whatever you want? Hmph, what a joke. ”
"Isn't it?"
"Of course not."
Kaguya looked at Takeya with the same gaze as an idiot:
"Didn't I just say that? The People of the Moon have made 'purity' a part of their lives, and as long as the Moon Capital maintains its 'pure' character, the Moon People are immortal, but once the Moon People are detached with 'filth'......"
"What will happen?"
"Ordinary people of the moon will just disappear, but if someone like me does, at most they will lose their power because they are contaminated with filth."
Kaguya shrugged, lowered his eyes and said:
"So, it's absolutely impossible for you to say that you can do whatever you want on the ground, and when I was just banished to the ground, I was no different from an ordinary girl."
"That's a shame that you survived."
Takeya's tone revealed a hint of admiration.
If the historical Kaguya is the Penglai Mountain Kaguya in front of her, then she can actually deal with those big people who covet her beauty with an ordinary girl's body, which is really amazing.
"Huh? Is it hard to survive on the ground? ”
Kaguya shook his head disdainfully, and said in a very unobtrusive tone:
"Yonglin is by my side, if it weren't for the fear of letting those people in the Moon Capital find out, I wouldn't have embarrassed those idiots in such a peaceful way as 'Problem'."
“...... Give me back my touches! You liar! ”
Wu Ye complained with a dark face, and then said curiously:
"Wait, didn't you say that the people of the moon lose their power when they are contaminated with the filth of the ground? So why are you still ......? ”
"Ah, that's for most ordinary Lunarians."
“......”
Kaguya's tone revealed that he was special and so natural and very unpleasant, and he heard that Wu was full of black lines, but he couldn't think of a reason to refute it, so he just continued to listen to her:
"Ordinary people of the moon don't lose their strength immediately after they come to the ground, but they disappear little by little, and finally die, well, for example, it's like ice cream, which slowly melts away in the air."
"Let's not mention what kind of strange metaphor you have...... By the way, why do you know about ice cream? Aren't you a thousand-year-old antique? ”
"It's really rude, the concubine is a princess, it's much more noble than you earthly people, don't use that barren thinking to imagine the living standard of the concubine."
While stimulating Takeya with the latest handheld in his hand in the shape of a fan, the lazy nobility that Kaguya deliberately showed was simply infuriating:
"If the people of the moon are exposed to the 'filth' of the ground for a long time, they will inevitably lose their power, just like me, but there is a special case among them, and that is Yonglin."
Speaking of his own servant and master, although Kaguya's face did not mean to show off, the meaning of "we are different" revealed from his bones was fully revealed:
"Yonglin will not increase or weaken his own strength because he is on the ground or on the moon, probably this is the level of a god."
"Gods?"
Wu Ye was a little surprised, he hadn't heard Yakumo Zi talk about this:
"Is Miss Yonglin a god?"
"What, isn't that weird?"
"It's weird."
Takeya nodded:
"Aren't the gods all a race that exists by faith? I've never seen anyone here who believes in Miss Yonglin, could it be the rabbits? ”
"Yonglin doesn't need that kind of thing."
Kaguya's tone sounded meaningful, and he seemed very smug:
"Although I don't know how to explain it to you, Yonglin is completely different from the gods you know, and the rules of ordinary gods can't restrain her."
"Why do you always say special, special...... Is Miss Yonglin really that powerful? ”
Wu also didn't believe it, Yonglin's strength he admitted, after all, not everyone could beat the Hirori witch, but to say that she was really as strong as Kaguya described, he couldn't see it.
However, this question did not bother him for long, and there is no way to determine the strength of a person by the judgment made by different people, because the object of comparison is different, so the safest way is to unify the benchmark of comparison.
In simple terms –
"That's it, Kaguya, let me ask you, Miss Yonglin or Purple, who is more powerful?"
