Chapter 13: The Marriage Ritual
______________________________________________________________________
- Kazuya -
I sat with Grandpa and the Stairs Daimyo in the meeting room.
“Are you sure that’s a good idea, Kazuya-kun?” The Stairs Daimyo, now my grandfather-in-law asked me. “Don’t you think declaring the merger of the kingdoms would deter people more against making moves against us?” He asked.
“Other countries of our size, sure. But none of the five great nations would care. With the inclusion of the Land of Stairs, the Land of Flowers would become a country directly connected with both Earth and Fire, who are currently at war. Our condition would be no different than Rain. Actually, no, our condition will be worse than Rain as we don’t have someone like Hanzo protecting our borders. Lightning will obviously not fight against two of them for us. Even if they did, the amount they would charge us will be beyond anything we can imagine. But in either case, our land is destroyed. For an agriculture based land like ours, that is just a death sentence. The best time to announce the merger will be around six months to a year after the war ends. They would be licking their wounds and not attack anyone for a few more years.”
“That’s…” The man tried to find a reason to refute but couldn’t.
“We take it you will need to prepare for the merger too. Please take your time. In the meantime we will do the same. The trade and alliance between our nations can last as proposed.” I assured him and finally he calmed down a bit.
“By the way, I sent off my granddaughter with such an odd gift. Are you sure that's fine?”
“Yes. We have taken a liking to Kasumi-san’s personality and we are lucky to have her as our wife. As for presenting us with a gift, please don’t worry. Those areas will be more than enough for us.”
“But those mountains… they are cursed. It is believed that a demon was sealed there which still rebels to this day, making the mountain burn. It hasn’t stopped for as long as we have known. Are you sure you want such a cursed place?” He asked.
This fool.
“During this time of war, if you were to give us something expensive or important, the people of your country might be dissatisfied with you. The nobles might cause trouble and when the time for the merger comes, it might cause problems. But if you were to give away such a place, no one would blame you. We believe that no one even lives in those mountains, do they?” I asked.
“No. The entire area has no people staying due to people fearing the curse. In fact, even the area several kilometres away from the mountains are empty because no one wants to even live in the view of those mountains. This was the area given to you without anyone complaining.”
“Well, if no one lives there then it’s fine. No one has to be bothered. Even the transfer of land can be done easily. All problems solved.” I smiled lightly.
“If you say so.” The man smiled in return and left after discussing several other things.
“Why those mountains, Kazu-kun?” Grandpa asked when we were alone.
“Those mountains are treasure troves, Grandpa. Treasures that these people don’t recognise.” I smiled. “It was also the main reason I pushed for the merger initially.”
“Oh. And what about the curse? You shouldn’t underestimate that kind of thing.”
“There is no curse. The fire is because of the reserves of natural gas under the earth. Think of it as a gas which can burn, a very valuable fuel similar to coal and oil. Those mountains have enough reserves to put our wealth on par or even surpass the five great nations if we can utilise them properly.”
“What?!”
I won’t lie, seeing Grandpa shocked like this was always worth it.
“To be honest, I didn’t think that guy would agree to transferring that land to us. Now, even if we don’t agree to the merger, we lose nothing. That land is already legally a part of the Land of Flowers now. Land of Stairs and its daimyo can do nothing.”
“So you are planning to back off from the merger?” He asked.
“Obviously not. Since they are giving us that land, why should we reject it? As for their plan… I have more than one way to take care of it.”
“Well, just don’t be careless.”
“I won’t.”
“By the way, you said you agreed to the marriage for those mountains initially. What has changed now?” he asked with a knowing smirk.
I rolled my eyes at the man.
“Oh come on. You are married to a pretty girl like Kasumi-chan. Get to work. I want a great grandchild by next year.”
“You know what?…”
“Hmm?”
“You are right. I am married to an incredibly pretty girl. Why am I here with my grandfather?” I returned his trick back.
“That’s right. Go on. Get your ass to work.”
…
Yeah, this guy was too shameless to fall for that.
I went ahead and gave him a hug.
“I am proud of you, Kazu-kun.” He patted my back.
“Thank you for everything, Grandpa.”

It was a week later when all the guests had left and things finally calmed down a bit.
“Thirty seven ninjas. Can you believe it? A total of thirty seven ninjas tried to infiltrate the warehouse and I got eighteen of them.” Kuroka cheered.
“Eh, I thought it was alright. Too bad they weren’t stronger. All chunin or lower. I heard you guys fought a jōnin the first time. Why didn’t those come when I was on guard? At least I still won against Shorty here.” Toji complained, making me roll my eyes.
“It’s good that they didn’t come. I didn’t want a ruckus on the day of my marriage. Also you guys were playing games.”
“To see who got more kills. Also, don’t you think having a battle in the background made for an excellent show?”
“Nope.”
I was taking a rest after the entire fiasco for the last two weeks.
Kuina, Rose and Kanae were training the kids. Saitō and Sera were investigating the capital for any leftover spies. Which only left Toji and Kuroka with me.
“Anyways, you guys have fun. I need to get some work done today.” I got up and left to prepare for the ritual. We have planned to do it tonight.
“Good luck, boss.”
_________________________________x____________________________________
I sat on the bed in the middle of the ritual room with Kasumi. The entire place was sealed so that no one could enter inside without our permission.
The ritual needed Kasumi to formally invite me into her family and then for us to consummate the marriage.
Normally the ritual didn’t require both sides to be virgins but the results were better if they were. After all, virginities could be a sacrifice too.
On reading further I found that the virginity sacrifice actually purified the bloodline of the person. It was basically sacrificing one purity for another.
And this was a type of sacrifice I could get used to without feeling guilty.
I gave her a nod.
“Kazuya-sama, would you join our family?”
“Yes.” I replied and pulled her in for a kiss which returned enthusiastically.
I removed her kimono letting it fall to the sides as I moved to her neck, placing soft kisses all the way.
She brushed her fingers through my hair, enjoying my ministrations.
I moved back, taking a look at her face. There was both joy and lust in those eyes.
“I am going to make this day unforgettable for you.” I whispered in her ears before licking her ear, making her yelp in surprise and me laugh.
With that I made her lay on the bed and moved on to her breasts while my hand went into her kimono and down between her legs, caressing her lower lips.
She actually opened her legs more, giving me access.
I rewarded her actions by caressing her folds, before finding the clitoris and giving it a light rub. Her body jerked up by the sudden stimulation.
“Anhhh.”
“Did you like that?” I asked, looking at her confused face. “Let me do that more.”
I went between her legs and took a good look at her core. She was cleanly shaved, pink lips with slight wetness due to the foreplay.
“Kazuya-sama?”
I leaned in and placed a kiss directly on her lower lips, without breaking eye contact with her. This was her first time having this done to her.
The look of surprise and embarrassment on her face was just delicious.
Maybe I was a sadist… or maybe her expressions were just too cute.
I gave her slit a lick and her hips jerked at the unexpected stimulation but I just continued, licking every corner of her pink folds before moving to her clit.
“Mmmhh Kazuya-samahhh this…”
My hands went to her breasts and found her nipples, rolling them between my fingers, and her words stopped in between as she clamped her mouth shut with her hands to stop her moans.
Well, that’s no fun.
“Remove your hands and don’t stop your moans, Kasumi. I love hearing your voice. It makes me feel good knowing I am able to make you feel good so let me hear your lovely voice.” I told her before placing a light kiss on her thigh.
She hesitated but removed her hands from her mouth.
“Good girl. Now, enjoy. Today is our first night together as husband and wife. I am going to keep you awake the whole night tonight.”
With that, I lifted her waist up to my chest height, her back still on the bed so that she could clearly see what I was doing and began working on her core.
Melodies of her moans resounded through the large ritual room and within minutes, her body shuddered violently
I however didn’t let go until she came twice more.
When I let her down, she was drooling from the corner of her mouth, eyes dazed from pleasure. I didn’t think I would be so glad to have an eidetic memory for such a time.
I took the scene in, imprinting it on my mind, before undressing myself too, my length was rock hard, almost painful.
She was wet enough and I didn’t want to wait anymore so I got on top of her, first taking her lips for myself. The kiss woke her up from her daze and her hands went around me, hugging me and returning my kiss with equal vigour.
My length was rubbing on her sodden core and was wet from her juices already, so I took a hold of my length and rubbed the tip at her entrance.
“Remember this moment, Kasumi-chan. From now on you are completely mine. Do you agree?” I whispered into her ear.
“Yes.”
With that I pushed forward.
She was tight. Her training for the past few months made her fit and develop strong muscles underneath that soft flesh.
Her development speed was faster than any samurai student we had taken in, the Senju blood showing its power.
We had plans to use the ritual for her too, to increase her speed of training. But all that for later.
My tip felt surrounded by hot, soft and yet tight feeling sending me into a world of pleasure. She winced slightly and I leaned in and kissed her lightly.
“Relax your muscles, take deep breaths.” I whispered.
“Yes.” She nodded and slowly relaxed and I felt her muscles loosen down there and took the chance to push more, the lubrication helping me get inside more.
Almost half went inside and her body jerked, her breathing heavy.
I paused and gave her a chance to adjust while I kissed her neck and shoulder helping her calm down.
When she relaxed again, I took the chance to push in the rest of my length inside her.
“Agghhhhh.”
“It’s all done, Kasumi-chan. I am completely inside you now. You did a great job.”
“Really?”
“Absolutely. Now relax.” I moved slowly, one of my hands on her clit, slowly rubbing it to help her ease her pain. After a while when she relaxed more and bit by bit, she got used to it and that’s when I started increasing the pace.
Her moans changed from ones of pain to pleasure and I leaned to kiss her once more.
She hugged me, struggling between moaning and kissing me at the same time and yet trying her best.
I pulled back and my hands went to her breasts, playing with them as I thrust more. Perhaps it was her Senju body or her training but she had completely gotten over the pain and was now lifting her hips, reciprocating with my movements.
The sounds of our bodies clashing echoed in the huge ritual room. Minutes later, I felt my climax approaching and increased the speed of my thrusts. Her moans became louder until I thrust inside her one last time shooting rope after rope of my cum.
The ritual circle lit up at the same time, painting the whole room in a soft light.
We groaned in pleasure and I collapsed on top of her.
Almost immediately afterwards, I felt a warmth entering my body through the place we were connected and travelling to every corner of my body.
The feeling made me groan in pleasure and regain my hardness once more. My hardened length inside Kasumi also made her groan.
I could feel the changes in my body, my strength and chakra felt invigorated… but I couldn’t care less about them.
“I hope you are not tired already, Kasumi-chan. We are just beginning. I am not going to let you sleep tonight.”
And I did as promised.
She passed out after her twelfth climax.
__________________________________x___________________________________
I woke up the next day and found Kasumi in my arms, still sleeping.
I guess I did go a bit too hard yesterday. Then again, with my vitality, that was nothing. If I wanted to, I could keep going.
And now that vitality… was further enhanced. I clenched my fist and felt a surge of power completely different from before.
While I would have to test the full extent of the changes, there was one thing I could feel very clearly… and that was my chakra
My chakra had increased by leaps and bounds. It was at the level of a Kage finally.
I finally had Kage level reserves and I had a feeling that I could still improve with training, reaching and even surpassing Shiroyasha Uzumaki in terms of chakra alone
But my goal wasn’t her.
My goal was Kaguya. I wanted chakra surpassing even that of Kaguya Otsutsuki… and one day, I will surely achieve that level.
I looked at Kasumi beside me. The blanket covering her had come off and the ropes of dried up semen were visible on her thighs along with the hickeys all over her body.
After the first few times, we had completely lost control. While she was getting stronger this was too much for her for now.
But the ritual did a lot of good to her too.
The principle of the ritual was to trade one purity for another. What we did was sacrifice both my own and her virginities, which can also be considered as a type of purity to increase the purity of her bloodline powers. This means her Senju-Uzumaki bloodline was now stronger than before.
All this also explained our increased chakra levels.
I could feel her chakra had increased and was almost tokubetsu jōnin level now. It went from simple genin levels directly to tokubetsu jōnin levels at once. I will have to teach her the Chakra Suppression Technique to keep her chakra hidden.
I will also have to prepare the mutated animals for her ritual. That would easily be enough to ensure that she has kage level potential if she didn’t already have one.
I waited there till she woke up.
She looked around groggily and it took her a moment to realise where she was and she quickly got up.
“Kazuya-sama!”
“Good morning.” I greeted and kissed her forehead. “Are you tired? If so then we can rest for a bit longer.”
“I… “ She blushed at the words. “No… I am fine.”
“You don’t have to force yourself, you know?”
“N-no, I am really fine. I actually feel… refreshed.”
“Hmm. The ritual worked perfectly. I will teach you some new things to keep your power hidden. We cannot let outsiders know about your sudden increase in strength. That would only bring danger to us.”
“Yes. I will work hard.”
I couldn’t help but smile at her determined expression and leaned in to kiss her once more. “How can you be so cute?”
_________________________________x____________________________________
“I don’t want you to hold back, Kuina. I am much stronger than before.” I warned as I unsheathed my sword and took my stance facing her.
“Heh, feeling very confident are you? Very well. I don’t believe I can’t kick you ass.”
The first thing I had done after coming out was test my new strength and the results were astonishing.
My physique had been upgraded by almost an entire level. I was pretty sure that with just a bit of work, I could open the Sixth Gate. At that point, I would be able to fight a strong Kage, even if only briefly.
The Senju Bloodline really is something. Then again, she has Uzumaki blood too. Another thing which increased due to that was my vitality and healing factor.
Normal scratches completely disappeared in minutes now and cuts in a few hours. If I were to do the second stage of the Healing Factor Ritual now, I was pretty sure I could boost it further.
My affinity for Water and Earth chakra has also increased, especially Water. My original affinity was Water and Earth. Senju were good in Water and Earth while Uzumaki were good with Water and Wind so the affinity which was raised the most was Water. Earth was second and Wind was last.
Kuina didn’t hold back either.
We clashed for almost an hour before separating and I was barely winded by all that high intensity combat.
After an hour, it was time for Kuina to leave for her teaching duty so Toji accompanied me and this time I was able to keep up with him quite easily. My base stats were higher but his experience and skill were still higher. We didn’t use the inner gates but the speed and strength behind the attacks were our best.
I could feel myself getting stronger with each passing moment, adapting to his moves.
The Senju Clan didn’t have any clan specific technique. They learned everything they could and diversified their skills to an insane level. That’s what got them their name- Senju, meaning ‘thousand skills or thousand hands’.
They had amazing adaptability and instinct which enabled them to achieve this and now I was getting to experience this thing first hand.
“That’s more like it. Now I feel like I need to start training seriously too lest I get left behind by everyone.” Toji said as he stretched after the fight.
We had fought for four hours before I felt the strain of battle.
The results of the ritual were far beyond my expectations and I couldn't be happier about it.
________________________________x_____________________________________
“Your Highness, congratulations on your marriage.” Genshiro bowed as he greeted me. Behind him were Rina and Mina as well as three new faces who were looking at us. Two old men and one old lady.
“Please don’t do that sensei. You are not only my teacher but also Kasumi’s granduncle. I am not using a formal tone with you either so just call me by my name.”
“I…”
“Please, I insist.”
“Oh don’t be such a hardass, Gen-kun. The boy is not wrong.” The old lady said, making the man relent finally.
“Thank you.”
I nodded and looked at the new faces and Genshiro took this opportunity to introduce them. The old men were Disuke and Minoru Uzumaki while the old lady was Hiromi Uzumaki. They were three of the most experienced Seal Masters in the Uzumaki Clan with Hiromi-san being a classmate of Mito Uzumaki herself.
I bowed politely.”Welcome to the Land of Flowers. We hope you enjoy your stay here.”
“Oh lay off with the formalities. As you said, you are family now.” The old lady was the one who spoke, as the eldest of the group.
In the Uzumaki Clan, everyone was related to each other in some way so it was easy to find a connection.
Since she said that I nodded with a smile and she looked at Kasumi.
“Is this Ken-kun’s granddaughter? She looks adorable, has Tōka-chan’s eyes. That woman was one deft hand with Genjutsu. She could even make those pink eyed bastards run in circles. Ken-kun was smitten at first look but was too much of a chicken to confess. I was the one who introduced them and proposed the marriage and Mito took Ken-kun as her attendant to Konoha.”
“Well, Tōka-san could be intimidating. She was the left hand of Hashirama-sama, directly below Tobirama. There are very few kunoichi of her level.”
“Pfft, she wasn’t going to eat him alive. The guy was just too shy. Although Tōka-chan was a fearsome kunoichi, no doubt. You don’t seem that bad yourself. I had heard that you weren’t trained but you still have decent chakra. I am sure we could fix that soon. You have Uzumaki and Senju blood. Chakra will never be a problem for you.”
This made Genshiro take another look at Kasumi and his eyes widened and he looked at me in surprise. “This is…”
“Something new I have developed recently.” I said and they didn’t enquire further.
Hiromi-san came forward and the other two followed her. Each of them brought out a huge scroll and presented them to me.
“This is a present from the Uzumaki Clan and Uzushiogakure for your marriage as well as the future marriages with Rina and Mina. We have heard about Kasumi-chan’s situation and want to say that it doesn’t matter what those fools from Stairs country think. She will always be a part of our family. This is a gift from her family.”
I accepted the scrolls and Hiromi-san continued. “These are the complete knowledge of Fuinjutsu as well as other ninja arts the Uzumaki Clan possesses.”
It took me a few seconds to understand her words and then my eyes widened. “This… this is too much. How can I accept this?”
“Oh don’t be a wuss. Didn’t you say earlier that you are family with the Uzumaki Clan now? Then it’s only right that you have the right to learn this. Moreover, after what you have done for the Clan, I doubt anyone would have any problem with you learning any of this. Either way, it’s not like it’s going to change anything for the Clan when they leave the Elemental Nations. So don’t sweat it so much. You are developing your forces. You need this.”
“I… thank you.” I accepted the scrolls with a bow.
I really wasn’t expecting all this… even when the Uzukage had promised to teach us the Uzumaki Fuinjutsu. I had only expected the basic ones, at best till the Expert level and even that would have been a treasure in the Elemental Nations. I just wasn’t expecting… everything they had.
“We wanted to do this on the day of the marriage but we thought it would be better not to appear there with so many people from other nations. It wouldn’t do well for anyone to catch wind of our relationship at this point of time.”
“Thank you. That was very thoughtful of you. We indeed had many spies snooping around.” I said massaging my head.
“Was it that bad?” Genshiro asked.
“Worse.” I explained the whole thing with Kumo and other countries trying to infiltrate my warehouse and the newcomers looked pissed.
“Those mountain bandits really have no sense of honour. To try robbing your own allies… you don’t have to worry. All of them will pay for their actions.” Hiromi said and the hatred in her voice was easy to hear.
The Uzumaki must be planning something big for them. I didn’t pity them either.
If anything, it just meant I had to increase the speed of training people to defend against Iwa when this is over.
We sat down and discussed the future. With the knowledge they had given me I didn’t even have the face to ask them anything more.
They had just waved it off saying that all the elders in Uzushiogakure had agreed to this.
I guess I will have to find some way to repay them.
We also discussed what they will be teaching our people.
I gave them a brief rundown of what I was teaching my people.
“So you want us to teach Fuinjutsu to your people, right?”
“Yes. I myself will be the first student. I wish to develop this art more.”
“You do understand that people will start fearing you just like us if you do it.” She asked.
“I understand but we are prepared for that.” I said resolutely. With how things were going, we were going to be targeted either way. Better to be strong when that happens. “I do not want my people to provide services like ninjas. Their own job will be to protect and develop the Land of Flowers. We do not wish to start wars but that doesn’t mean we will take it lying down and let people take advantage of us.”
“Sigh… I understand. Who are the students you want us to teach?”
“Apart from my immediate subordinates and Kasumi-chan, you can select any student who wishes to learn or has the talent for the art. I will ask Saitō and Kensho to open up time in their schedule to include the Fuinjutsu lessons.”
“Samurai with Fuinjutsu… now I have seen it all. By the way, you do realise that if you only make them work for the Land of Flowers, you might have problems supporting the army. Even with the increased income of the Land of Flowers, that will be hard to do.” Hiromi-san said.
Her experience was showing. She must have a lot of experience in maintaining the finances of Uzushiogakure.
“I know. I have plans for that too. The Land of Flowers will be expanding towards other industries soon. You will see.”
“Well, since you have already thought of all that, then it’s your business. I mean it’s not like there are no such examples in the world. The Land of Iron also has a similar thing. I will meet the students later and select a few of them.”
“Thank you. I will have your identities ready by tonight.” I plan to make them appear as people from the villages that were destroyed in the Land of Flowers and have moved here. Their request was for them to appear as priests who maintain a shrine. The underground part of the shrine will contain the Uzumaki Mask Chamber.
I agreed as it wasn’t that odd either.
After leaving them behind, I went to my Ritual Room.
It was time for summoning and now with my new chakra level, I wanted to see what I could summon today.
“Kuina, hand me a strand of your hair. I want to try something new today.” I asked.
“You are not going to do something weird with it, are you?” She asked, narrowing her eyes even as she broke the strand of her hair and handed it to me.
My lips twitched at her question. “No no, nothing weird. I was just wondering how it tasted.” I answered, with a smile.
The girl rolled her eyes. “Moron.”
“I wanted to try something new.” I had changed the ritual circle for the summoning ritual a bit to try to focus on summoning from Kuina’s world.
I made the ritual circle and placed a magic spear as a sacrifice. I summoned this spear last month by chance. This spear needed magic to run on which only Rose had and she didn’t want it because it wasn’t her type. I could use it due to the Grimoire but I had better swords than it. So I am planning to sacrifice it and see if it works.
This time I want to summon something from Kuina’s world. Last time I had pushed myself too much so this time I wanted to summon an item.
With everything ready, I stepped back and I started to pour chakra into my Grimoire.
The summoning circle lit up and the spear rose up into the air before getting lit up too and started spinning quite fast.
After a while, the light slowly faded and the item descended.
A sword.
“It’s a sword.” Kuina, as expected, was the first one to speak while I went forward and checked the sword.
It had a distinct white reverse wave hamon and its tsuba had flower-like edges in the shape of an octofoil. It also had no accessories on the hilt, being wrapped with black silk. Kashira, tsuba and kojiri end caps were golden, and the sheath was black, decorated with dark red circles split into even thirds.
“So pretty.’ She exclaimed as she looked at the sword.
I stored it in my Grimoire to know more about the details and lo and behold, the blade in my hand was the famous Shisui, one of the twenty one Great Grade Meito, the sword of Ryuma Shimotsuki, the greatest swordsman of Wano.
“Which sword is it? Hey Kazuya, answer me?” Kuina jumped on the side excitedly. It was rare to see her so excited.
“It’s Shisui, one of the twenty one Great Grade Swords, the same as your Wado Ichimonji.” I summoned the sword and handed it to her. “Here, take this. Kinda fair that you have it. After all, it is the sword of Zoro’s ancestor and the Shimotsuki Clan. Since he has the sword of your ancestors, you can have his.”
“Really?”
“Yup. Just treat it with care. It was stolen from Wano along with Ryoma’s body by a pirate. It’s considered a national treasure there so… be careful.”
“I will. In fact, when we go back, we can return it back to them. Just let me use it for a while.” She grabbed the sword from my hand and began swooning over it. I rolled my eyes and left.
The experiment was a success. It just opened so many doors for me.
_________________________________x____________________________________
A few weeks had passed since the arrival of the new Uzumaki and they had taken to their roles very well.
All three of them had genuine passion for the art of Fuinjutsu and teaching the younger generation was something they enjoyed at this age.
They even suggested that I use seals to prevent anyone from disclosing the secrets of the Land of Flowers and information about what they learned here. These seals also protect their minds from the likes of Yamanaka. The only problem was that it was a complicated seal and needed someone to be at least at the Expert level to use.
I checked the seal using the Grimoire and found nothing that could harm the ones under it and approved.
We had six Uzumaki at that level already and they could easily complete using that on all the students in a month.
Another thing which happened was that I got the information about the Gelel Stone near me. Kuroka was able to easily find it and bring it back.
It was when I scanned the stone that I realised how truly insane they were. It could not only increase the basic stats of someone, but also give them regeneration comparable to jinchuriki and also increase the lifespan of the user.
There was apparently a vein somewhere too. No wonder it showed years of time to find the location of the vein.
Good news was that the only thing left now was the necklace of Hashirama Senju and I could do the next ritual.
Unfortunately, that was also the bad news as the necklace was with Tsunade and getting it from her would be extremely hard.
Maybe I should wait until she gives it to Dan Kato and have Kuroka swipe it off of him?
Fortunately, there was another thing we could do in the meantime.
The Uzumaki had come through with their promise of telling us the places where beasts and demons were sealed in the Elemental Nations.
I had the information about three demons and we were planning on getting them first.
Demons existed in the Elemental Nations. They mainly existed in a different dimension or parallel world similar to the Pure Land or the place where the Shinigami lived.
Oftentimes some of them slipped into this world or were summoned here by others. This is something which has been happening even before Kaguya’s time.
In the past, the priests and onmyoji fought and defeated or sealed them or just banished them back into their dimension.
They used a different type of energy than chakra and their art was quite advanced too. One of the examples of this was the Sage Mode used by animals. They existed even before Kaguya came to the planet. The talismans made by them could do things which today’s fuinjutsu cannot do. They just got lost in the annals of time and war. The Demons however lived.
Now they were even summoned by ninjas and a few of them even used them as summoning beasts. They however only did so with the weaker ones.
The stronger demons needed bigger sacrifices to be summoned and could be extremely dangerous, rivalling even the Tailed Beasts. That’s why summoning demons is generally frowned upon.
The first demon we were informed about was called Sōma. It was a demon who consumed memories who wrecked havoc in the Elemental Nations a few hundred years ago. There it was confronted by a miko who sealed it in the Daidai village. Unfortunately the miko lost her memories before the seal could be completed and a part of the demon was free and succeeded in cursing her. The demon’s curse has passed through her bloodline even now. Every hundred years, the seal loosens and Sōma is able to influence the cursed individual. The Uzumaki were called to reinforce the seal to prevent the demon from escaping and that’s how they knew about it.
With Kuroka’s skills we can restrain and seal it using the Totsuka no Tsurugi for use.
The second demon was in the possession of Kusagakure. The Box of Bliss was a treasure of Kusagakure which contained a youkai sealed inside it. The box would need very high amounts of chakra to release the youkai but when released, it was a being at the level of tailed beasts.
The third was something I found by sheer coincidence while searching for medicinal herbs. There were rumours about a village called the Tree Felling Village where a tree of life grew. The leaves of this tree had extremely miraculous properties and could cure many diseases.
The villagers sold the leaves of this tree to make a living.
I had someone fetch the leaves of the tree to see if I could find anything and found something else completely.
First thing was that it was impossible to grow the tree anywhere else as the reason for its powers was in that village.
The tree grew on a crystal mine which had a demon sealed inside it. Very long ago, some priests used the tree as a focus to seal the demon inside the Crystal Mine. The crystals had a special chakra which was the reason for the Tree’s Miraculous properties.
Even if someone took the seeds or tried to replant the tree somewhere else, it wouldn't have the same properties as the original one… that said, if the crystal was powdered and mixed with the soil, the medicines grown on it could have enhanced effects. It could also be used to enhance the effects of Blood Tulips.
While everyone was busy with the war, it was the best time for us to gather these as our tracks could be hidden better.
I immediately got ready for the plan.
We were going to gather all three spirits in the next three months. Worst case, we can summon a demon if required, although that would be the last resort.
__________________________________x___________________________________
Three weeks had passed since the Uzumaki group had taken over training us.
During this time, I had been working on my own projects.
With my new chakra reserves, I could keep Shadow Clones for training different things. Two of them accompanied the Uzumaki to train in Fuinjutsu.There was also the fact that I could only use it due to my Mind Enhancement Rituals and regeneration rituals to heal any damages in dangerous cases.
Normal people could harm themselves when using it.
I had offered them the technique but the old ones denied as they were too old to have any use for it.
The only ones who learned the technique were Rina and Mina.
This time I had gotten a read on Hiromi-san and the other two guys too.
While the Uzumaki had sent the people and even offered us so much, a part of me couldn’t help but be doubtful and want to verify things.
Thankfully, they were actually here for no nefarious reasons and actually mean well.
The information really made me feel guilty. Man… was I really too paranoid?
Was Grandpa talking about this… the price of being a Daimyo?
Sigh…
They had been paying special attention to Kasumi. Even Rina and Mina were taking their time to get to know her and help her in training.
I was also not able to rest in these three weeks, dedicating all of my time to gathering resources for the Uzumaki.
Summoning gold was not that hard and I had enough of it by now. It was collecting the food and other resources which was the real challenge.
It wasn’t rare for people to collect those and wouldn’t even be suspicious. Unfortunately, I wasn’t some normal person. I was the Prince of a nation which specialised in agriculture. If I were found collecting such resources on such a large scale, it would obviously raise some eyes. I couldn’t even take that much from the reserves of the Land of Flowers without it being noticed. Not to mention with Kumo’s last move, we had to pay extra tribute.
That’s why I had to send Saitō, Kuorka and Toji under disguise to different nations and order the merchants there to buy things for us. Kuroka then erased any traces of us.
It did cost me some money but it was far safer in the long run.
Finally after three weeks of hard work, I was able to get some free time.
“Mmhhh.” The girl in my arms moaned as I slowly kissed the nape of her neck.
Due to our busy past few weeks, I wasn’t able to spend much time with her. She was doing her own work so when we got some free time today, I brought her out on a date and went to a hideout we had built nearby to spend some time together.
My hands slowly cupped her breast over her kimono before one of my hands went down to her thigh, caressing it.
She turned towards me and looked at me with half closed eyes before leaning forward. I didn’t disappoint her and took her lips, our tongues wrestling against each other for domination. I took the chance to push one of my hands inside her kimono and into her bra, grabbing her naked breasts.
Her breaths became heavier as I played with her breast.
We broke our kiss as a bridge of saliva formed between our tongues.
There was something about that lust filled look on her face which made me hard in an instant. Kanae, as sweet and kind as she was, was extremely lustful.
While it was me who initiated any intimacy, once she got into the mood, she was always proactive in our plays. Who could have thought that the sweet Kanae-sama or the Maiden of Butterflies, a title she was given by the residents of the Land of Flowers… could show such a look?
Truly, it’s always the quiet ones.
It’s just that I was the only one to know this side of her and I was too possessive to let anyone else see it. This was only for me.
I sucked on her earlobes, earning another moan from her. “Did you miss this, Kanae-chan?” I whispered into her ear.
“Nooo, I didn’t…ahhh.” Her sentence ended in a moan as I pinched her nipples.
“Then why are your nipples so hard?” I pulled them and rolled them between my fingers. “See, they are so hard. Did you want me to do this when we came here?”
“I didn’t. You were the one who…”
“Oh, so it’s only me? In that case, should I stop this?”
Her reply was pulling me into a kiss to stop me from teasing her anymore.
I accepted her answer with full enthusiasm. While kissing my hands worked their way from her thighs to her core, slowly tracing the outlines of her crotch without touching her sensitive areas. I continued avoiding her core, playing around but never going there directly. She moved her waist trying to get my fingers to touch her so I pulled back. “Answer me first… what do you want?”
“Noooo….”
“Then I am not going anywhere.” I kept teasing her.
“Kazuya-sannn.”
“Hmm?”
“Please…”
“Please what? You have to tell me what you want, dear.”
“I…”
“Yes.”
“Please… there….”
“Speak clearly, I cannot understand what you are saying, love.”
“P-p-lease touch me there….”
“Where? Say the word I taught you…”
“P-ussy.”
“Very good.” I rewarded her with exactly what she wanted. My hand slipped inside her panties, tracing her slit slowly. Her body shivered at the touch, hips jerking as she came.
She came… from just my touch…
Her sensitivity was beyond amazing.
I however didn’t stop and played with her lower lips, making circles around her clit before finally finding her entrance and pushing a finger inside her inviting cave.
“Mmhhh.” She held my hand but didn’t do anything.
“Oh, do you want me to stop?” I asked with a smirk as she quickly shook her head. I pushed my finger more, slowly until I reached deeper and then pulled out.
“Ahhhh.”
“Do you like this?”
“Y-e-ss.”
“Do you want to do something even more fun?”
“Eh?”
“Get up and put your hands on the table.” I pulled her up to stand up and made her put her hands on the end of the table and bend before pulling her kimono up, revealing her ass for my eyes to enjoy. Kasumi had a slightly petite figure. She was growing and will soon become a very buxom woman in the future but Kanae… she already had a figure that could be called sinful… especially this ass of hers.
I slapped her ass lightly, making her yelp in surprise before spreading her cheeks to reveal her glistening lower lips.
I got between her knees and did what my mind had been shouting at me to do for so long… bury my face in that ass and start eating her pussy.
She gripped the table and moaned loudly and I pushed my finger back inside her, massaging her insides.
This time however, I took my time to explore her insides for a while before finding her g-spot and concentrating on it.
Her legs shook as she tried to remain straight. All it did was to make her fabulous ass jiggle in front of me, giving me an even better view.
Stimulated by the scene in front of me, I grabbed her ass and started fingering her g-spot hard. Almost instant, her knees bent as she came violently on my hand with a loud moan.
I pulled my hand out as she collapsed on the ground on her knees, in daze from her climax. Seeing her collect herself, I stood in front of her, my rock hard cock making a tent on my yukata. “Now see what you have done. I don’t think I can go out like this. So, help me out, Kanae-chan.” I asked as I patted her head.
She looked up at my crotch and lifted her hand to grab my length over my yukata and began caressing it.
“That’s it. But you know that’s not going to cut it, don’t you.”
She didn’t need another reminder as she loosened the band of my yukata and moved it to the side. I was in my underwear in front of her which she pulled down to release my length from its painful confinement.
It wasn’t her first time seeing me so she wasn’t surprised and grabbed me, slowly jerking me off.
While publicly both Kanae and Kasumi were similar, having a kind and caring personality, always helpful, they were quite different when it came to sex.
The difference between Kanae and Kasumi was that Kasumi was always obedient. She would do whatever I say, to make me happy. I didn’t hate it. In fact I think it was a charm of hers, a part of her character that made her who she was.
Kanae however was different. She had an amazing sex drive and was willing to say her thoughts out to me. She was quite adventurous when it came to sex, willing to try new things of her own initiative and enjoy them.
I didn’t mind either. In fact, I was all for it.
We experimented to our heart’s desire, exploring new things.
“Now hands to your side and take it in your mouth.”
She nodded and did as I say.
A handless blowjob was the first time for her but she was doing amazingly as usual.
I stood there enjoying her efforts as she sloppily sucked on my length. After a while, I held her head.
She knew what I was going to do and relaxed her body as I thrust inside.
We had discovered something very interesting during our experiments.
Kanae didn’t have any gag reflex. Or maybe she did but it was not gone. Her training of the total concentrating breathing and breathing styles had trained her body to resist and even completely ignore any gag reflex. It was a happy discovery as it allowed us to do something like this.
I held the side of her head as I began to fuck her face with long hard strokes, her spit coating my length, making it shine in the light of the room.
As I felt my climax approaching, I pulled out. She looked at me slightly surprised as I made her get up and bend on the table.
She looked at me questioningly.
“We are trying something new today.” I answered as I put my length between her pillowy asscheeks and pressed them together before I started moving.
She was already wet from her previous climax while my cock was covered in her spit, making my movement easier.
Everytime I thrust, my balls slapped against her pussy with a clapping sound.
The scene, the sounds of clapping and her moans and the feeling of pleasure was too much for me and a few minutes later, I released my seed all over her back, covering her already spotless skin with another layer of white.
I leaned and kissed her cheek. “Let’s go to the bath.” I pointed towards my still hard length. “I am not stopping anytime soon and it will be easier for us to wash there.”
With this I picked her up and carried her to the bath.
I wasn’t joking.
I didn’t stop until I came four more times and she came eight times total.
At the end of it all, the two of us rested in the bath. Sex really does wonders against stress.
