The next second, she suddenly stepped back. The table blocked her way, so she lifted her legs and swept across the tabletop, retreating to her workstation.
"Wait a moment!"
Yakushi Nonou's cheek twitched: "Nebula Jonin, I'm sorry."
"I've thought about it, and I'm not ready yet."
Shingetsu Nebula: "I see~"
"Why don't you think about it? If you agree, we can... be together right now."
"Otherwise, I'm very busy with work, and I don't know when we'll meet again."
"I...I've thought it through. I'm not ready to date right now," Yakushi Nonou said. "Besides, as long as fate allows, we'll meet again eventually."
Looking at the notification that popped up on the panel in front of him, Shenyue Xingyun shook his head with a smile: "What a pity."
"In that case, I won't bother you any longer. I'll be going now."
Under Yakushi Nonou's wary gaze, Kamitsuki Seiun left without lingering, closing the door behind her.
Staring at the tightly closed door, Yakushi Nonou let out a long sigh of relief, her body sliding down the wall to the floor.
Recalling the terrifying experience just now, and Shenyue Xingyun's remarks, she gritted her teeth and spat after a moment.
"Pah! What a scumbag!"
"Hungry ghost!"
Recalling how ruthlessly the other party launched their attack, she felt a chill of fear.
Quit it!
No matter how generous the offer from Lord Danzo, she wouldn't take the job!
That's so cruel!
After a while, her anger subsided, and she began to worry again.
How am I supposed to explain this to Lord Danzo...?
...

Shenyue Xingyun was in a good mood after receiving the reward.
Although she went a bit too far in order to complete the mission, given Yakushi Nonou's integrity as an intelligence operative, she probably wouldn't reveal such things.
...
A month later.
Kakashi Hatake stood for a long time in front of Might Guy's house.
After a long while, as if he had finally made up his mind, he held a scroll in his hand and strode into Matt Kee’s house.
Embroidered on the scroll was a line of small gold characters—
—From "The Fallen Daimyo's Retreat (Lady)"
Chapter 278 Kakashi's Premeditated Scheme
"Kakashi, what brings you here today?"
"Aren't you very busy with work?"
At Might Guy's house, when asked by his friend, Kakashi Hatake paused for two seconds before replying, "It's a day off today."
To be precise, it's not a holiday, it's skipping work.
Since promising Shingetsu Nebula that he would do his best to help Might Guy complete the outfit change, Shingetsu Nebula has been prioritizing other people whenever there is any urgent work.
On one occasion, when there was a severe shortage of manpower, he even went on a field mission himself, which was unprecedented for him.
This was like opening a door to a new world for Kakashi Hatake, who finally discovered that there were actually benefits to doing personal favors for his superiors.
Of course, in return, he had spared no effort during this period, and this time he came with the confidence that he would definitely succeed.
Might Guy: "Perfect timing, I haven't finished my training this afternoon yet. Kakashi, let's have a youthful training session together."
"Wait a minute." Kakashi Hatake stopped Might Guy's warm-up exercises.
"I've come to see you for another matter."
Matt Kai asked in confusion, "Something else?"
Kakashi Hatake took out the scroll in his hand and showed it to me: "A friend of mine recently shared something good with me."
Matt Kai immediately became curious: "Test what? A secret martial arts technique? Or some kind of training posture?"
Kakashi Hatake turned his face away.
“I don’t know. My friend sent it to me. I haven’t had a chance to look at it yet, so I came to you as soon as possible.”
Might Guy was unaware of the flaw in Kakashi Hatake's words and was deeply moved.
At Kakashi Hatake's signal, he took the exquisite scroll and saw the small print on it.
"The fallen Daimyo of Kumogakure... what is this?"
Slowly unrolling the scroll, one is greeted by a dense array of sealing incantations and runes, imprinted in concentric circles on the scroll.
"Kakashi, how do we make this?"
"I'm not quite sure either," Kakashi Hatake said. "Perhaps we could try injecting chakra?"
Upon hearing this, Might Guy laid the scroll flat on the floor. He extended his right hand and placed it in the center of the scroll's seal, his chakra surging into it. As the chakra flowed in, the scroll's seal and runes gradually lit up.
"It really works!" Might Guy exclaimed, as if he had found something fun: "Kakashi, let's do it together."
“Okay.” Kakashi Hatake responded, then stepped forward, unleashing a torrent of chakra even more powerful than Might Guy’s.
With each breath, the spell runes on the scroll lit up layer by layer, and then shone brightly.
Might Guy was taken aback and quickly took a step back. Kakashi Hatake also stopped and retreated to a distance from Might Guy.
It's a pity it's too late.
The light shone on the two of them.
"Where...where is this?" Matt Kai exclaimed.
What lay before me was no longer my familiar home, but a dark and gloomy world.
Just then, lightning flashed across the sky, and large white characters on the sky became exceptionally conspicuous.
'The Fallen Daimyo's Curtain-Covered Pavilion'
Just as Matt Kai was on guard, the light and shadows shifted before his eyes, revealing a magnificent palace and buildings bustling with people. He saw groups of servants and, on a high throne, a voluptuous and beautiful daimyo behind a curtain.
Matt Kai discovered that even if he stood still, the changing images would not be affected.
"Kakashi, I think I'm under a genjutsu!" Might Guy cried out.
Fortunately, I heard Kakashi Hatake's voice.
"Kai, don't worry."
"It shouldn't be an offensive illusion; there's no danger."
"It's just light and sound; let's see what's going on first."
"Do not act rashly."
"Oh~" Might Guy believed Kakashi Hatake's words, and after realizing that the 'people' in his environment could not see him, he was relieved.
Then, scenes changed around him.
A diligently trained Jonin from Kumogakure.
The daimyo of the Land of Lightning, known for his tyrannical rule and extortion.
Lady Daming, out of compassion for her people, traveled incognito to observe their plight.
trap.
Banditry.
A high-ranking ninja from Kumogakure passed by and rescued the terrified daimyo's wife.
The lady fell in love with the big black man, and from then on, the worlds of black and white intertwined.
At first, Kakashi Hatake could still hear Might Guy shouting, but eventually, all he could hear were the sounds created by the genjutsu in his mind.
half an hour.
As the light and shadow faded, the familiar scene returned to before my eyes.
Kakashi Hatake glanced at Might Guy not far away, who was standing there with his back bent, looking dazed and empty.
Kakashi Hatake cursed.
"**!asshole!"
"How could they send me such filthy stuff!"
He stepped forward, grabbed the scroll in his hand, and made as if to tear it to shreds, but after only half of the action, he slowly put it down.
"Forget it, I'll settle the score with him later!"
After rolling up the scroll and stuffing it into his ninja tool pouch, Kakashi Hatake looked at Might Guy with concern: "Guy, are you alright?"
"Sorry, I didn't know my friend would send me something like this."
Of course it's a lie.
This is a special scroll that he obtained after traveling to many places with the storybook in hand, finding a Jonin colleague who was proficient in illusion and sealing techniques, and spending half a year's mission salary.
I feel a little heartbroken, but it's okay.
