However, after Momo saw Eientei, he temporarily lost interest in Inaba Tei, the rabbit whose current situation and whereabouts were unknown.

Clearly, the Bamboo Grove of Lost Souls had lost its purpose of guiding people, and Eientei had naturally lost the "eternal" quality it carried. Eientei, already simple in its design, was now utterly dilapidated. If it weren't for the fact that the building's structure was largely intact, Momo would have seriously doubted whether it had been abandoned for centuries.

The name "Eientei" (永鈴亭) clearly hints at Kaguya's abilities. Using Kaguya's power to stop the timeline of Eientei is the simplest and most perfect way to maintain it. Kaguya could easily keep Eientei forever at the point when it was perfectly completed, allowing her to enjoy the pleasure of living in her new house every day.

Perhaps that is why, without Kaguya Houraisan, Eientei completely lost its original novelty and aged by several hundred years, becoming utterly uninhabitable.

What surprised Momo even more was that not only had Kaguya Houraisan entered the afterlife, but Eirin Yagokoro, the leader of Eientei, had also disappeared, and Reisen, the other rabbit, had also vanished without a trace.

Reisen is quite strong, but as a pet, you can't expect too much from her. As for Eirin Yagokoro, the leader, her strength is absolutely top-tier in Gensokyo. She's never truly fought before, so she has no idea how terrifying her power is. And now, even she has disappeared?

An old woman who has lived for hundreds of millions of years was outsmarted by Yukari Yakumo, who has only lived for a few thousand years.

As Momo's mind raced, admiring the beautiful view of the abandoned Eientei Pavilion under the moonlight, a voice rang in her mind, saying, "Daddy, Daddy, why don't you summon me there? I really want to see what my old home was like!"

"Cough cough!"

Mo Mo coughed violently, almost choking on his saliva as he struggled to breathe. The reason was simple: the girl calling Mo Mo "Dad" wasn't his beloved daughter Yui, but rather his recently adopted daughter, Houraisan Kaguya.

Now that Kaguya Houraisan has become a Heroic Spirit, she's different from Fujiwara no Mokou, Marisa Kirisame, and Sakuya Izayoi. It's clear that even in the afterlife, she retains memories of Gensokyo. Furthermore, even if she lost her memories of Gensokyo, as a Heroic Spirit, Kaguya Houraisan can still easily regain her memories of the afterlife.

In other words, Kaguya Houraisan has completely remembered the time she attacked Momo at night to try to kill him, but ended up inexplicably becoming Momo's obedient daughter and loving to kiss her father.

Yes, this is definitely an embarrassing dark history, belonging to both Momo and Kaguya Houraisan.

However, when it comes to embarrassing pasts, especially between two people, it depends on who has the more charisma when they bring them up to tease each other.

Simply put, whoever is more shameless and can tolerate making the other person feel ashamed first is the winner in this battle of dark history.

Mo Mo was a little embarrassed by Kaguya Houraisan's obviously seductive "Dad," but he quickly recovered and joined the battle of embarrassing pasts.

"Ahem, my sweet baby daughter, Daddy is just worried that you'll catch a cold. You're still so young, if you get cold while out at night, your sister's mother won't let me into bed."

As soon as he finished speaking, Mo Mo heard a suppressed sneeze, clearly indicating that Mo Mo had hit Kaguya Houraisan's weak spot.

Perhaps Kaguya Houraisan, who was playing the dark history game with Momo, was prepared to be even more shameless than Momo, but she clearly did not expect that Momo would shamelessly bring up Fujiwara no Mokou from the very beginning.

It was only then that Kaguya Houraisan remembered that she not only had Momo, this perverted father, but also Fujiwara no Mokou, her adoptive mother. Moreover, Kaguya Houraisan could still feel the warmth and touch of when she ate Fujiwara no Mokou's grandmother on her lips, giving her a dizzying, feverish sensation.

“It’s okay, Daddy,” Kaguya Houraisan cleared her throat and said in a sweet voice, “Kaguya won’t catch a cold. Daddy is here. Daddy can hold Kaguya in a warm embrace!”

"Also, it's okay if Mom doesn't let Daddy sleep in the bed. Daddy can sleep with Kaguya, Kaguya loves sleeping with Daddy. Then Daddy can hold Kaguya and we can play kissing games."

"Kaguya hasn't kissed her daddy in so long, Kaguya is so lonely."

Mo Mo's lips twitched slightly. Sure enough, compared to a monster like Kaguya who was hundreds of millions of years old, once she really started playing without any limits, Mo Mo's young age of over 200 years old was really not enough to withstand it.

Not to mention Mo Mo couldn't take it anymore, Yui, who was nestled on Mo Mo's shoulder, was already blushing furiously, her small chest heaving violently. This high-energy teasing and dialogue throughout had opened a door to her life, allowing Yui to see a new world ahead.

At this moment, Yui wished she could become Kaguya Houraisan... Hmm, that seems feasible!

Having considered this, Yui completely concealed her presence and began using her privileges to fully monitor Kaguya Houraisan's physical condition. To better experience Kaguya's condition, she even created a copy of Kaguya's physical state for herself, essentially playing a deep-dive immersion game.

Yui could have done this, but she still had some principles and didn't dare to truly put herself in her mothers' shoes. She knew that if Momo found out, Momo would be furious.

But for now... Kaguya Houraisan is fine!

We're all Dad's daughters. Yui just wants to learn more about the daily life of Dad's other daughter. Is that okay?

Absolutely no problem, and even if there are problems, it's no problem at all, it's perfect!

Mo Mo was unaware of Yui's little action, nor was Kaguya Houraisan, and it was clear that even if Mo Mo asked, Yui would never admit it.

Therefore, Mo Mo naturally focused all her energy on Kaguya Houraisan, who was now offline. Clearly, Kaguya Houraisan harbored resentment towards her current status as a daughter and was deliberately venting her dissatisfaction in this way.

If Momo could sincerely apologize at this point, Kaguya Houraisan would most likely let it go. After all, what happened that day couldn't really be considered Momo's fault, and now Kaguya Houraisan is a Heroic Spirit, Momo's subordinate. It would be better for everyone to ignore some things.

What a pity, who is Mo Mo?

As a businessman, compromise and negotiation are often Mo Mo's most common tactics. However, when it comes to matters of personal principle, Mo Mo will not back down in the slightest.

For example, right now, if Mo Mo backs down in the face of Kaguya Houraisan's malicious provocation, wouldn't he lack any manly spirit?

For Mo Mo, whose wife is about to turn thirty, the lack of manliness is a huge insult.

Hmph, so what if she's Kaguya Houraisan? So what if she's shameless and has no morals? Who's afraid of who? Who's going to slap who?

"Kaguya, that's a good idea."

Mo Mo let go and said, "Daddy misses you too, Kaguya. I want to hold you in my arms and feel the warmth and softness of your body. I want to measure my good daughter's growth inch by inch with my own hands. I want to kiss you and tell you what Daddy's love is."

"Since Kaguya wants to come to Daddy's side, then Daddy agrees. Remember to explain to Mommy properly when you see her later!"

Having said that, Momo summoned Kaguya directly to his arms. In the blink of an eye, a beautiful young woman appeared in Momo's embrace.

Kaguya Houraisan had a strange blush on her face as she glared angrily at Mo Mo, while Mo Mo playfully winked at her and said, "My dear daughter, welcome to your hometown, Gensokyo."

Kaguya Houraisan didn't seem to care about her surroundings. Instead, she pointed to her smooth legs and feet with her chin and said, "Why, why did you summon all of me, but leave out my shoes?"

"Didn't you say you wanted Daddy to hold you? Well then Daddy will hold you the whole time. Anyway, Kaguya, your body is light and soft, and Daddy will be quite happy to hold you."

"Then why don't you just summon my body? I won't even wear clothes. Wouldn't your naked body make you happier, Dad?"

Kaguya Houraisan practically spat out the word "father" with a fierce, almost clenched tone, as if she were gritting her teeth. Mo Mo, however, seemed oblivious to her tone and said, "That's the kind of Kaguya Daddy likes best, but if you really do that, Kaguya, you'll catch a cold, and your mother Mokou will definitely blame me."

"My dear daughter, do you really want your father to be hit by your mother?"

Hearing Mo Mo bring up Fujiwara no Mokou again as his trump card, Kaguya Houraisan trembled as if she had an allergic reaction. She lowered her head and suddenly began to struggle violently, her legs swinging back and forth as she shouted loudly.

"Ugh, you bastards, you're all bad guys! How am I supposed to face anyone now that you've made such a mess of things?!"

Hearing the sob in Houraisan Kaguya's voice, Mo Mo wondered if he had gone too far in his teasing. Just as he was considering whether to comfort Houraisan Kaguya, a pair of hot lips came close, leaving behind the taste of Houraisan Kaguya.

Their lips touched briefly before parting. By the time Mo Mo realized what was happening, Kaguya Houraisan had already slipped out of his embrace and was standing barefoot on the grass.

The bright moonlight shone on Kaguya Houraisan, and at this moment, the beautiful Kaguya Houraisan seemed to become a goddess under the moon, greedily absorbing Mo Mo's gaze.

Unfortunately, the goddess's speech and mischievous eyes were not very elegant.

"Pah, you perverted dad! Now you won't dare let Mom know, will you? Otherwise, I'll tell Mom you're bullying your daughter!"

199 Dad, please heal my wounds with your own mouth.

Mo Mo touched her lips, recalling the taste that was gradually becoming familiar, and felt a little surprised.

He had imagined many scenarios for his meeting with Kaguya Houraisan, most of which would result in them becoming bitter enemies and fighting to the death. But Mo Mo never expected that Kaguya Houraisan didn't seem to hold a grudge against him or show any anger over those events.

From a moral standpoint, Momo's defeat of Kaguya Houraisan after being attacked should be considered self-defense. Even if there were some unpleasant frictions between the two sides, it was excessive self-defense and Momo should not be held responsible.

However, girls, as special beings, have the privilege of being spoiled, willful, and unreasonable. Therefore, even if Kaguya Houraisan really embarrasses Momo and makes her lose face, Momo will temporarily forgive her. After all, having such a lovely daughter is a win for Momo no matter what.

However, Kaguya Houraisan didn't act spoiled or willful. While her banter with Momo carried a hint of sarcasm, it was mostly a friendly exchange. In the end, unable to win the verbal battle, she even playfully shut Momo up. This left Momo completely baffled as to Kaguya Houraisan's thoughts. Had Kaguya Houraisan already succumbed to her father's charming and charismatic advances?

"Thank you."

At that moment, Kaguya Houraisan's "thank you" seemed to provide the answer to Mo Mo's doubts. Leaning against the bamboo, Kaguya Houraisan gracefully bowed to Mo Mo. In the moonlight, she seemed to transform into a true princess of the bamboo grove, especially with the sincere and elegant smile on her lips, which seemed to transport Mo Mo through time for a moment, allowing him to see Kaguya Houraisan from different eras.

"You're welcome."

Mo Mo smiled in return, though he wasn't entirely sure why Kaguya Houraisan was thanking him. But seeing her sincerity, Mo Mo knew she was genuine. As for the reason, did it even matter? "Aren't you curious why I'm thanking you?"

"You will naturally tell me what you want to say and what you want me to know."

"You're supposed to be the King of Heroes, can't you show some backbone? At a time like this, when facing a disobedient subordinate like me, you should be brutal and force yourself on me. That way, I'll have enough reason to hate you!"

Kaguya Houraisan kept complaining about Momo, seemingly because Momo was causing her great distress. However, Momo remained unmoved by Kaguya Houraisan's complaints, because Momo knew that what Kaguya Houraisan hoped for was definitely not a real breakdown in their relationship.

Seeing Mo Mo's expression that said, "I know everything but I'm not going to tell you," Kaguya Houraisan shrugged helplessly and said, "Fine, I knew it would be like this. You just won't reveal a single flaw, and you won't give me even the slightest reason to dislike you."

After saying that, Kaguya Houraisan walked step by step towards the dilapidated Eientei and said, "Come with me."

Mo Mo followed step by step, and Kaguya Houraisan's somewhat heavy voice came, saying, "Do you remember what Kaguya told you? She told you that when I first arrived in the afterlife, my emotions were not right, right? At that time, I was almost giving up on myself. It's just a pity that as a Hourai person, I can't die, and besides, it's the afterlife, so I can't die anyway."

Kaguya Houraisan spoke in a deliberately lighthearted tone, but Mo Mo could sense how utterly devastating it was when someone was plunged into despair and could no longer even yearn for death.

"As for the reason... it's simple: his family was destroyed, and his wife and children were separated."

"Cough cough," Mo Mo almost spat out his drink, and said, "I can understand the destruction of families and the loss of loved ones, but what the hell is this about wives and children being torn apart?"

"Oh dear, I thought you could understand."

Kaguya Houraisan turned around with a playful smile and said, "In the main world, don't they often describe my relationship with Mokou as a yuri relationship? Isn't yuri just love between girls? If I could, I would really like to have a yuri relationship with Mokou, then she would be my wife... Or should I become her wife? Well, it doesn't matter, anyway, we'll have to personally compare who's the top and who's the bottom before we can reach a conclusion."

"So, are you jealous?"

Mo Mo smiled and retorted, "What a pity, you won't have the chance to realize your ambition. Mokou is now my wife. You've been NTR'd by me... Hmm, thinking about it, this is actually quite exciting. My daughter's girlfriend became her mother, and my daughter was NTR'd by her own father. How ruthless!"

Fujiwara no Mokou remains Kaguya Houraisan's Achilles' heel. Speechless at Momo's words, Kaguya Houraisan puffed out one cheek and glared at Momo for three seconds before turning away and ignoring the topic altogether.

“The only person I feel I owe in this world is Mokou,” Kaguya Houraisan continued, “After all, the Tale of the Bamboo Cutter was just a little game I played casually back then, and I never imagined it would cause such a tragedy.”

“If Mokou were an ordinary person, it wouldn’t matter; these years would be enough for me to forget these things. But now, she has become my compatriot, and she often appears in front of me. As a result, I can no longer hide my guilt towards her.”

"So I choose to beat her up, or get beaten up by her, heh heh!"

Mo Mo ignored Kaguya Houraisan's malicious attempt to act cute and said, "To put it bluntly, one of you is a stubborn tsundere, and the other is obsessed with saving face. In reality, after fighting and killing so many times, there shouldn't be that much of a barrier between you two anymore, right?"

"Ah."

Kaguya Houraisan nodded gently and said, "After all this time, I've long forgotten much of my past guilt. I guess it's the same for Mokou. Her resentment towards me has been diluted by the harsh reality over the years."

"However, we can't just let bygones be bygones without doing anything, can we? I refused to admit my mistake, and she refused to forgive, so we naturally started fighting. Since neither of us would talk, then we'll just fight."

Kaguya Houraisan stepped onto the floor, her smooth white feet covered in dust, but she ignored it and began to clean up the debris that had fallen by the door. Mo Mo watched from the side, not offering to help, because he sensed that this was Kaguya Houraisan's way of comforting herself.

"Looking back now, I wish I could have put aside my pride back then. At least... at least I could have apologized to her beforehand. Even if she didn't forgive me or accept my apology, at least I could have faced that situation more calmly."

"That matter?"

Kaguya Houraisan shuddered, her hand halting its movement as she raised the bamboo stick. After a long silence, she said, "Yes, about that matter. She suddenly stood in front of me, intercepting the spear that was supposed to kill me. The spear destroyed her heart, and the power of the curse even interfered with the power of the Hourai people, bringing her true death."

"I haven't even apologized to her yet, but she suddenly saved me. I haven't even thanked her yet, and she's already dead."

"This is why I'm separated from my wife and children. Oh right, as for the child I'm talking about, hehe, she's actually my pet Reisen. You'll only see her in a little while."

Mo Mo nodded and stepped forward to help Kaguya Houraisan clear away the debris. Kaguya Houraisan looked at Mo Mo with surprise, and Mo Mo said, "I didn't want to bother you just now, but now I can't bear to see you hurt. Your beauty shouldn't be marred by a scratch in a place like this."

Kaguya Houraisan's surprise softened, and she released her grip, looking at the cuts on her jade-like palm from the broken bamboo. She said, "It feels so good to no longer be a Hourai person. This is the pain of life, this is the true feeling that a human being should have."

"If the bleeding doesn't stop, Daddy will be heartbroken."

"Hmph," Kaguya Houraisan gently pulled and hugged Momo's shoulder, saying, "How about Daddy disinfects my wounds with his saliva later? I don't just have cuts on my hands, it seems like I have quite a few wounds all over my body. If Daddy treats my wounds with his own mouth, I won't tell Momo."

"Ahem," Mo Mo said seriously, "Isn't this a bit inappropriate?"

With Kaguya Houraisan holding his arm, Momo naturally began using his abilities to clean up the mess. Compared to the two of them manually cleaning up, Momo's abilities were quickly putting everything back in place, restoring it as much as possible.
