Bloodline Limit - Chapter 536
“The moon, heh, above the moon, there’s a tailed beast, to be more precise, it’s the collective leader of all tailed beasts, the Ten-Tails. I really want to see how strong the Ten-Tails is in its complete form. It’s a pity that even if the Sage of Six Paths were to combine with it to become the Ten-Tails’ Jinchuriki to oppose me, he still wouldn’t be my match. Perhaps in today’s ninja world, the only one who could go up against me is my wife.”
Ryoha gazed at the moonlit sky appreciatively. He had gone through so much, and his mindset and perspective had long changed from the time he was an otaku on Earth. It could be said that he had undergone countless transformations. If he were still the otaku from Earth, he wouldn’t have had the time to appreciate the moon’s beauty, even if Earth’s moon was larger and more beautiful than the one here.
“Come out, you should know that playing invisible in front of me is a foolish move.” Ryoha gently sipped a cup of tea, savoring the bitterness and sweetness on his palate while not forgetting to speak.
Beneath the moonlight, a graceful figure descended from the sky as if she had come from above, observing Konan’s exquisite beauty and temperament. In this moment and setting, she seemed like an angel falling to the mortal realm under the moonlight.
“If you’re going to bring up today’s events again, let’s forget it,” Ryoha preemptively cut off Konan before she could speak. However, he underestimated a woman’s determination, especially when it was Konan. Before making up her mind, it was fine, but once Konan had decided, there was no turning back. Even if she later regretted her choice, she wouldn’t go back on it.
Konan didn’t pay attention to Ryoha’s words. She had already made her decision. In the short time she had spent living with Ryoha, she had come to understand this man’s character. It was truly hard to imagine that such an ordinary man had achieved so much.
In Konan’s view, someone with Ryoha’s strength was not necessarily an evil villain. He was either someone completely unforgivable or one of those kind-hearted people who helped others in need. However, what she didn’t expect was that Ryoha’s personality was quite ordinary, just like any normal man. No, he was even more lecherous than many men, sometimes acting on impulse, other times being incredibly cold and, one could even say, occasionally capricious and willful.
But it was precisely this kind of man who had achieved so much. In terms of power, he could be said to have shaken the history of the ninja world like no one else. It left Konan unsure of what to say. However, there might be one aspect that was possibly the only one that made Konan admire him, and that was how well he treated his women, especially the ones he truly loved. People might call him a pervert, and he really was one. He had many women around him.
But today, he had unexpectedly turned down the advances of this stunning woman. Konan was confident in her own grace, figure, and beauty. She was no less than Bulma, Hinata, and others. Yet, Ryoha straightforwardly and unapologetically refused, without any room for negotiation. Was he not a lecher? Not really. It was truly hard to understand. Maybe at certain moments, his rationality could override his desires, just like today.
Konan remained silent and walked up to Ryoha, and Ryoha didn’t move. He knew very well that even if Konan’s power were to increase tenfold or a hundredfold, or even if she were to launch a sneak attack under circumstances he didn’t know, she wouldn’t be able to harm him in any way. Since that was the case, Ryoha saw no reason to act. As long as Konan didn’t disturb his mood for enjoying the beautiful scenery, it was enough.
Though a decision had already been made, when it came down to it, Konan was still extremely nervous. Her breathing became slightly constricted, and her face had a blush that hinted at desire, making her look like a fallen angel with earthly desires.
Honestly, Ryoha hadn’t expected this outcome. He had planned to use words to drive Konan away.
Thinking about it, when a woman, especially a stunning and noble one, makes a request to offer herself, being rejected without any hesitation twice would typically result in embarrassment and anger, and fleeing from the scene would be a good outcome. To his surprise, Konan not only stayed but also willingly embraced him. If it weren’t for feeling too shy to show her face, she might have already initiated the next step.
Therefore, Ryoha was now certain that Konan’s decision wasn’t a whim but a carefully considered one, filled with unwavering determination. Without such determination, given Konan’s personality, she would never have taken such action. She seemed to be trying to reverse the situation, but it seemed she had failed at the start. Indeed, beginnings are always the most challenging part, and it appeared that Konan had faltered at the beginning.
It was precisely this behavior and the determination visible in her eyes that changed Ryoha’s decision about her. He wanted to see how far she would go, to gauge the depth of her resolve.
He had made up his mind. He wouldn’t initiate anything, but he also wouldn’t stop Konan if she made a move. In other words, if Konan took the initiative, he wouldn’t mind her pushing him forward. However, if she couldn’t handle her embarrassment and decided to leave, Ryoha wouldn’t stop her. It all depended on how far Konan was willing to go.
Konan seemed to sense that Ryoha was regarding her like a joke, and she suddenly lifted her head, which had been buried, her eyes shimmering with determination and stubbornness. She extended her hands, grabbed Ryoha’s head lightly, tilted it down, and then she lifted her own head upward, directly kissing Ryoha’s lips. That’s how their first close encounter began.
Ryoha was surprised as he looked at Konan. From her actions and expressions, he was a hundred percent sure that this was her first kiss, which she had been saving for years. He hadn’t expected Konan to go this far. Could it be that she really intended to push him forward next? Ryoha’s thoughts took an evil turn.
