Extra 19: Change the World (55)

"Me?" - Kaguya said as she raised an eyebrow - "The question is... Who are you?"

"My name is Irasue, Inu no Kami and guardian who protects the gate of hell" - Irasue answered seriously - "Now, who are you?"

"My name is Kaguya Otsutsuki, the rabbit goddess, wife of Kurama Uzumaki" - Kaguya answered as she crossed her arms.

"His wife?" - Irasue said with surprise - "I see, it makes sense, I mean, I can sense in you a power similar to Kurama-dono's."

Kaguya didn't say anything about it, she just walked to Kurama and put her hand on his head, so he could regenerate some of his chakra - "Are you okay?"

"Yeah, a little better, although it was harder than I thought" - Kurama answered while wiping the sweat from his forehead - "Can we get started?"

"It's better if we wait for you to recover" - replied Kaguya while shaking her head - "By the way, I plan to check the place."

"Sure, I'll call you when I'm in good shape" - nodded Kurama as he watched Kaguya's silhouette disappear like a mirage.

"Is she really your wife?" - Irasue asked in surprise because Kaguya possessed an ethereal aura with every move she made, instead, Kurama seemed to live mundanely, as if he was part of nature itself. It was strange yet complementary, Kurama was like the material world while Kaguya was all about the mystical, the two seemed to be different yet similar at the same time.

Kurama smiled without saying a word as he snapped his fingers.

Irasue fell silent as she watched everything around her begin to distort, though after a few seconds she saw that she was no longer in Kurama's room, but on the outskirts of his mansion.

"That was rude" - Irasue said as she shook her head before walking to a nearby house, the same one that one of the city animals had indicated she could use as a temporary dwelling - "This place is perfect for meditating, besides, the energy consumption to connect me to hell doesn't seem as high as in my sanctuary..."

Irasue slowly closed her eyes before she began to meditate so that she could improve her connection to her power.

"This place is interesting" - Kaguya said as she looked around calmly, completely ignoring the gazes of the Yokai wolves that seemed to be following her every move.

"Who are you?" - said a feminine and youthful voice.

"?" - Kaguya looked towards the source and saw a cute girl of about 16-17 years old, reddish brown hair and emerald green eyes.

Kaguya decided to ignore the girl and continue to observe the surroundings, though if she was honest, the best place was the mansion Kurama had built in the center of this city, mostly because it was the place with the best spiritual concentration.

"Hey, I'm talking with you!" - Ayame exclaimed in annoyance as she ran after this strange silver-haired woman who was very similar to Kurama's for some reason.

"What do you want from me, girl?" - Kaguya asked with a frown because she hadn't been troubling anyone, and now this strange girl was coming to disturb her when she was just checking out the surroundings.

"I'm asking you who you are and what you're doing in this place" - Ayame replied with a frown - "Besides, how did you get into the city if there's a barrier?"

"Who am I, it's none of your business" - Kaguya said neutrally - "What is it that I'm doing in this place? I'm looking around, and I entered thanks to the owner."

"Kurama-san gave you permission to enter?" - Ayame said in surprise as she frowned at the presence of this beautiful woman - "What are you? Some kind of Yuki-Onna?"

"Snow woman?" repeated Kaguya with surprise as she started to think - "You mean because of my appearance?"

"That's the only type of Yokai that wears so much white in their appearance, not to mention that your hair and eye color give you away" - Ayame replied as she wiggled her little nose.

"My hair might be for other reasons, and my eyes might be like that because I'm blind..." - Kaguya replied as she gave her a blank look. Honestly, she didn't know how to feel after hearing the girl's hypothesis, after all, the first thing many people would think upon seeing her Byakugan, would be that she was blind.

"You're blind?" - Ayame asked in surprise.

"No, I can see normally, in fact, I can see better than many species in this world" - Kaguya replied while shaking her head - "I was just trying to make a point, that my appearance is not necessarily proof that I am of a species that you know of"

"I feel like you're messing with me, though I understand what you're trying to say" - Ayame said while gritting her teeth - "How did you meet Kurama-san?"

"How did I meet Kurama?" - Kaguya repeated as she started to remember the past - "It was when I was released from my prison on the moon and came down to earth, so I could turn all the inhabitants into my unwilling slaves, he managed to save me from my corruption and in the end we ended up falling in love, now we're a happy couple with a beautiful son."

"Huh? Couple? Son?" - Ayame said with surprise because she didn't think that this strange, but beautiful woman, was Kurama's wife - "Wait.... Sealed in the moon, plan to control the world?"

"Yes, let's say I was corrupted by a certain entity that made me lose my sanity, in the end I almost destroyed the world twice, but Kurama stopped me during my second attempt and without sealing me in the moon" - Kaguya answered while nodding.

Ayame didn't know what to say at this, after all, Kaguya's words sounded like something out of a story her grandfather would have told her during her childhood.

"Anyway, if that's all, I have to keep checking the city before going back to the mansion, I still have something to do with Kurama" - Kaguya said before walking towards the entrance of the city.

Ayame blushed when she heard Kaguya's words, after all, there weren't many things that a couple could do alone at home, besides, she, as a woman, could detect the slight seductive tone of the silver-haired woman's words.

"Wait, I'm going to show you around town!" - Ayame exclaimed as she ran after the silver-haired woman, though she didn't understand why she did so.

"¿?" - Kaguya gave her a confused look before nodding calmly.

The two ladies continued to look around the small town for about 30 more minutes, until they saw a small white rabbit run up to Kaguya and hand her a scroll.

Kaguya smiled slightly before placing her hand on the bunny's head and giving it some of her energy.

Ayame watched in surprise as the little animal's eyes glowed slightly, though the surprises didn't end there, because what happened next left her much more perplexed.

"Thank you so much for this gift, Kaguya-sama!" - The rabbit exclaimed before hopping onto a tree branch and disappearing from the scene.

"How!" - Ayame exclaimed as she watched the silver-haired woman set about reading the scroll - "How did you do that!"

"Give the rabbit enhanced cognitive power?" - Kaguya asked as she kept her eyes on the scroll - "It's simple, I just amplified its spiritual power, so it could create an ego of its own."

"You turned an animal into a Yokai, that shouldn't be possible!" - Ayame exclaimed in terror because such it seemed that this woman was much more powerful than she first thought.

"I'm sorry if I surprised you, though this little walk will have to end because I have something to do" - Kaguya said as she shook her head. If she was honest with herself, she wasn't even a little bit interested in Ayame's reaction, much less now that she had received the message from her beloved husband telling her that he was ready to continue with the relocation of their family.

Ayame tried to say something else, when she saw that the silver-haired woman had disappeared - "That was a bit rude."

Without a second thought, the wolf girl ran towards Kurama's mansion, though to her surprise, she felt something impact against her face as she was about to set foot inside the place - "Ugh.... What was that?"

"A barrier, and a very powerful one too" - a female voice replied.

Ayame looked in the direction of the voice and noticed that behind her was a beautiful white-haired woman - "Who are you?"

"Before asking someone's name, it is polite to introduce yourself first" - said the unknown woman as she folded her arms.

"My name is Ayame, and I am the granddaughter of the northern wolf clan" - Ayame replied while stroking her sore nose.

"Oh? Are you Oki's granddaughter, by any chance?" - Irasue said in surprise.

"You know my grandfather?" - Ayame asked in surprise, after all, not many people knew her grandfather's real name.

"Not directly, although he was my husband's subordinate when he was still alive" - replied Irasue calmly.
