"Are you talking about the course?" Huanji asked in a low voice, still looking into the distance, her expression detached.

After the incident involving Queen Himiko, Xu San felt that Huan Ji seemed to have changed.

It's unclear whether this change was due to Himiko or something else entirely.

Xu San felt that it was a combination of both.

As the sun slowly rose, Huanji looked at it and suddenly said, "Let's go back to the same cabin as before."

"Has she come again?"

"Hmm! This time she was even more intense than before. I could feel it; she really wanted my body."

"This queen is quite sunny~" Xu San said with a lewd grin, "She has good taste, just like me."

Huanji blinked and smiled faintly. "Perhaps I'm too outstanding, or..."

After a moment of hesitation, Huanji finally spoke, "Perhaps it is because I am too outstanding that the Queen chose me."

"Hmm~~" She turned around and left Huanji with her back to her. "Huan-chan, maybe it wouldn't be bad for you to become a queen."

"Hmm?~" Huanji was a little confused. She followed Xu San and said, "You...you don't want to taste the Queen's flavor, do you?"

Xu San turned a corner, went into the cabin, and then stopped. "I love your queen cosplay!"

Huanji also stopped and shook her head, feeling that what Xu San wanted was difficult to achieve.

The medicine Xu San gave her earlier did calm Queen Himiko down for a while, but now, as the medicine's effects weaken, the queen's call seems to be getting stronger.

Moreover, she now has a vague feeling that her body is starting to react sluggishly.

In modern terms, his body experienced a delay, and his brain and body began to become uncoordinated.

She hadn't told Xu San any of this yet. After sunrise, the lights in the cabin were mostly turned off.

Following his memory, Xu San led Huan Ji back to the original hidden warehouse.

After much fuss, Huanji finally decided to open the box.

She now wanted to take a closer look at what was inside the box.
The box was placed in the same spot in front of Huanji.

Huanji, on the other hand, is kneeling in front of the box, with a very formal expression and demeanor.

She reached her hand in front of the box, took a deep breath, and then looked up at Xu San. "Xu San, I have a question."

"Ask away!" Xu San took Murasame off his back again and walked behind Huan Ji.

Huan Ji didn't turn around to look at Xu San. Her hand gripped the lid of the box tightly, as if she was about to open it. I said, "You just said 'Queen,' it's not just about being lustful, is it?"

"Well, I guess so. Back then, I was wondering whether an island nation was more suited to be ruled by a 'heavenly locust' or by a queen?"

Xu San's voice wasn't loud, and his tone was light, but to Huan Ji, it was like a thunderclap.

As a ninja, she always knew only how to obey, never how to resist, and never thought of turning over to become a superior or ruler.

"Oh, by the way, as someone who knows China well, you should know that we Chinese have a saying: 'Are kings and nobles born with a special destiny?'"

"I've heard of it!" This time, Huanji emphasized her words, while her thumb, which was pressing on the box, lifted slightly upwards.

Xu San took a breath, opened his mouth again, and began to focus all his attention on Huan Ji and everything around her.

The box was opened, and there was nothing inside except a snakeskin cut in half.

Xu San looked at the snakeskin and thought to himself, "Is this what I just painstakingly cut off?" (End of Chapter)
