Sorry, you scumbag woman, you can do whatever you want.

Mom, I'm so worried about you coming home with such a big belly.

Eternal Pavilion.

The wind rustles through the bamboo forest, creating a peaceful and tranquil sound that seems to make one forget all the troubles of the world.

however.

"Sigh." A soft sigh escaped into the wind. Yagokoro Eirin stood in the front yard, gazing at the azure sky, a trace of sorrow appearing on her pretty face.

"Eirin, are you worried?" Kaguya Houraisan moved gracefully to Eirin Yagokoro's side, a gentle smile appearing on her pretty face. "Don't worry about us, you should go back to the Lunar Capital first."

“I’m not too worried, just… a little helpless.” Yagokoro Eirin turned her head and looked at the gentle and considerate Houraisan Kaguya beside her, explaining softly, “The Lunar Capital’s public search for our whereabouts is… tantamount to publicly admitting that they are powerless against the monsters appearing on the moon and that I need to return to the Lunar Capital.”

She shook her head slightly.

"The monsters on the moon are probably looking for us now. They'll attack us as soon as we show our faces."

"Is it even possible for them to find us?" Kaguya Houraisan frowned. "We are in Eientei and have no contact with the outside world."

“They shouldn’t be able to find us outside Eientei.” Shaking her head, Eirin Yagokoro explained, “However, it’s not certain if I contact the Lunar Capital.”

"Why?" A hint of doubt appeared on Kaguya Houraisan's beautiful face. Her older sister, Toyohime Watatsuki, possessed the ability to connect the sea and the mountains. This ability could connect the distance between different things, and it could be said that she controlled distance.

In other words, as long as Yagokoro Eirin contacts the Moon Capital and sends Watatsuki Toyohime to the Earth, she can immediately be taken back to the Moon.

No matter who it is, there isn't enough time to stop it.

“That monster on the moon is most likely capable of intercepting electronic information networks.” Yagokoro Eirin sighed. “Nowadays, information exchange in the Lunar Capital largely relies on the network. Even if I use other means, the liaison officer in charge will immediately upload the information to the network hub before reviewing it.”

"..." Kaguya Houraisan remained silent. The technology in the Lunar Capital was indeed very advanced, enabling timely information exchange. Moreover, the youkai were not good at this aspect and it was difficult for them to intercept the Lunar Capital's information exchange. However, if they encountered a civilization that surpassed the technology of the Lunar Capital, it would have an overwhelming effect.

Our once-proud technological civilization is now exposed and exposed in the face of our enemies.

"Can't we just communicate mentally?" she asked Yagokoro Eirin, only to see Yagokoro Eirin shake her head.

“Yes, but there’s no need,” she explained to Kaguya Houraisan. “This is also an opportunity to test the person behind the scenes.”

"Eirin, are you planning to use yourself as bait?" Kaguya Houraisan understood Eirin Yagokoro's plan: to use this opportunity to lure out the mastermind behind the scenes, fight directly with the person behind the scenes, and resolve the crisis in the Lunar Capital.

"Yes." Yagokoro Eirin nodded slightly. "Princess, you can stay at Eientei and wait for my news. Don't worry about my safety."

At this point, she quickly added another sentence.

“Princess, I am from Penglai. I will not die. As long as I want to leave, no one can stop me.”

“I understand, Eirin.” Houraisan smiled trustingly, accepting Eirin’s explanation, and did not insist on leaving with her.

At least verbally, he agreed to Yong-rin's request.

……

……

It does not exist in the realm of reality.

Yakumo House.

"..." Yakumo Yukari's alluring figure leaned against a pillar in the corridor, gazing at the gap that had opened up ahead, observing the battle situation in the Lunar Capital.

After a long while, she closed the gap.

She stood up, stretched, and looked at Yakumo Ran, who was kneeling to the side eating fried tofu, and asked her a question out of the blue.

"Lan, who do you think is the enemy?"

"..." Yakumo Ran swallowed the fried tofu in her mouth, her nine fluffy tails swaying behind her. After a moment, she spoke her mind:

"The mastermind behind the lunar monsters is more dangerous than the Moon Capital."

"Is that so?" Yukari Yakumo nodded slightly, her eyes narrowing slightly. "Someone invited us to join forces to kill the mastermind behind it all."

"...Was it the collaboration proposed by the Moon's Mind?" Yakumo Ran asked, almost certain that the Moon's Mind had secretly contacted Lady Yakumo Yukari. Only the Moon's Mind would value the power of the youkai and be willing to set aside the pride of the Moon People to break the deadlock in the most reasonable way, even if it meant cooperating with a former enemy.

"Do you think it's necessary to agree?" Yukari Yakumo asked, indirectly confirming Ran Yakumo's guess.

"...What conditions did she promise?" Yakumo Ran asked, asking the question she was most concerned about. Then, she heard Yakumo Yukari recite a long list of rewards.

There's wine, technology, an elixir of immortality, help that doesn't cross any lines, and other attractive conditions, even... including, depending on the circumstances, granting a portion of the moon as territory.

The offers were so good that it made one suspect it was a scam.

“This reward isn’t just for us, is it?” Yakumo Ran sighed. “Does she want us to gather the forces of the youkai to attack the mastermind behind it all?”

“…That’s right.” Yakumo Yukari nodded slightly, a smile on her face, but her eyes were icy cold. “We cannot allow that mastermind to grow stronger.”

The existence of monsters that are constantly growing and being born on the moon has exceeded the limits of tolerance, and they may one day descend upon Earth.

Wouldn't that devour all the resources of the entire planet?

……

……

The next day.

Maple Village.

In front of the villa.

"Inuyasha's mother?" Mebius's expression was somewhat subtle as he looked at the woman with long silver hair and a noble demeanor in front of him.

Then, she turned around and called out to Inuyasha in the living room.

"Inuyasha, your mother is here to see you!"

"Huh?" A puzzled female voice rang out, followed by hurried footsteps. A silver-haired girl arrived at the door.

Then, the atmosphere fell silent.

"..." Inuyasha twitched his lips, looking at the beautiful woman at the door with a smile on her face, a noble demeanor, long silver hair, and a crescent moon mark on her forehead.

Isn't this just Sesshomaru in a feminine form?

"Anyway, come in first." Mebius chuckled and instructed Inuyasha, who was standing to the side, "Inuyasha, go and make some tea."

"Why should I, the great one, make tea?" Despite complaining, Inuyasha's body language betrayed him, and he turned and went into the living room to make tea.

"Inuyasha, he listens to you very well." Lingyue Fairy looked at the obedient Inuyasha making tea and had a subtle feeling.

That boisterous young man has transformed into a refined young lady.

“Inuyasha is just being a bit hypocritical,” Mebius said with a smile, beckoning Lingyue Xianji, who was standing at the door, to enter the room.

The two sat down around the tea table, and Inuyasha brought over two cups of tea and placed them on the table.

Then, she tried to leave the villa, but found that her wrist was being grabbed. When she turned around, she saw that it was Mebius who had grabbed her wrist.

“Don’t go, your mother is here to see you,” Mebius said, but Inuyasha twitched his lips and explained.

"My mother died many years ago."

"I'm so sad." Lingyue Xianji's voice was mournful as she wiped away imaginary tears. "Inuyasha, do you hate me that much?"

"...This isn't a matter of whether I hate her or not." Inuyasha explained expressionlessly. Theoretically, she did indeed have two mothers: one was her birth mother, an ordinary human, and the other was her father... Inu no Taisho's original demon wife.

Therefore, in a sense, Lingyue Xianji is indeed her mother.

"What's the problem?" Lingyue Fairy sighed, her melodious voice filled with sorrow. "For your brothers' safety, they risked their lives to come and save you."

“…I feel like you’ve misunderstood me.” Mebius picked up his teacup, took a sip, and said, “I haven’t restricted Inuyasha and Sesshomaru’s freedom. They can leave at any time. You don’t need to come and save our sons, Madam.”

“I’m not talking about Miss Mebius,” Lingyue Fairy shook her head slightly and explained with a smile, “This area has been chosen by monsters and gods as a battlefield.”

"Battlefield?" Somewhat surprised, Mebius blinked her beautiful eyes and asked curiously, "Are monsters and gods about to go to war?"

"..." Inuyasha didn't mention leaving, but looked at Lingyue Xianji with curiosity, wondering what big event was about to happen here.

Could it be that Fairy Lingyue really meant well for her?

"The situation is complicated." Lingyue Fairy thought for a moment, "In short, the gods and monsters have decided to ambush a troublesome being here."

"It requires the combined efforts of all the gods and demons, is it some kind of evil god?" Mebius asked curiously, tilting his head.

However, the answer lay in her heart.

“…He is a visitor from another world.” Lingyue Fairy subconsciously observed Mebius’s residence. Although it had a style that did not conform to the current era, it was also the residence of many powerful monsters, and the cost was similar. For example, the great monster Kazami Yuuka had a similar architectural style.

So she temporarily put aside her rising suspicions.

"The gods, who dwell high in the heavens, were nearly driven to the brink of despair by that evil god from another world. Therefore, they joined forces with monsters to set a trap to ambush and kill the evil god's true form."

"What kind of evil god is that?" Mebius asked with a serious expression, revealing a hint of apprehension, but Lingyue Fairy shook her head.

“I don’t know,” she explained. “Nobody knows what that evil god’s true form looks like.”

The atmosphere fell silent.

Both Mebius and Inuyasha seemed shocked by the news and fell into a brief silence.

Subsequently.

“Inuyasha, leave this place,” Mebius sighed. “Take your mother and flee from the impending war.”

"I, this great one, can leave on my own." Inuyasha raised his hand, his five fingers forming a claw. "Now, I am..."

"No, Inuyasha, you're too weak." Lingyue Xianji shook her head. "It's very easy for a girl like you to run around like that and get into danger."
