Two Worlds, Starting with Kaguya of Penglai Mountain

However, halfway through his sentence, he saw Reisen standing in front of him, also holding a note in her hand.

Kazuya Kurokawa: "What did Kaguya say to you?"

Reisen: "..."

The rabbit on the moon remained silent as it handed the note to Kurokawa Kazuya.

"From now on, I can call you Reisen-chan, or rather... given my current state, you might be even faster, Reisen, and I'll have to call you 'older sister' instead. Also (sorry, I'm out of space, turning to the back)"

Kurokawa Kazuya flipped the note over.

"Hehe~ I know you, Reisen, find it hard to trust me. After all, it's a bit of a joke for a Moon Rabbit to trust a Moon Human. So you should understand my implication, right? It's normal for a Moon Rabbit who betrayed its master for its own feelings to want a reward, isn't it?"

Kazuya Kurokawa: "..."

He looked up and met Reisen's gaze.

The rabbit on the moon also looked at Kurokawa and Mi with its red eyes.

Reisen: "When we first met, Lord Kurokawa had designs on my ears. They were the color of male desire. Shall we try them out now?"

She lowered her head slightly, bringing her white, slightly furry ears closer to Kurokawa Kazuya.

What is the implication of Kaguya Houraisan?

Reisen may not believe in Kaguya Houraisan, but she can believe in the man Kaguya chose, and in his sincerity and purity in matters of the heart.

After all, she is the princess of the moon, who is very passionate about human emotions. How could the person she chooses to be devoted to or even give herself to not be trustworthy?

Speaking of which, Reisen developed feelings for Kurokawa Kazuya while filming her role as the yandere Princess Kaguya.

At the beginning, there might have been an element of "the other person is the object of Kaguya Houraisan's affections" in it.

Reisen: "Lord Kurokawa, the paper the princess gave you actually has a back side."

The purple-haired bunny girl pointed to the note in Kurokawa Kazuya's hand.

Similar to the one given to Reisen, the paper Kaguya Houraisan handed to Kazuya Kurokawa also had writing on the back, though she didn't specifically remind him of it.

Kurokawa Kazuya turned the paper over.

"It's amazing, even in human form, I don't seem to feel much wariness towards Reisen. It seems the Moon Rabbits are really not threatening at all (Princess's sarcastic expression)."

The last drawing on the paper was a chibi-style portrait of Kaguya Houraisan that she had made for herself.

Despite spending all her time online, Princess does actually seek out and learn things that interest her.

For example, in drawing, Her Highness is now probably at the point where she can draw some relatively simple sketches.

Kazuya Kurokawa: "..."

After reading the note, he glanced at Reisen, who, despite appearing timid, was now unusually brave as she secretly peeked at the contents of the note.

Kazuya Kurokawa: "Reisen, what are your thoughts?"

Reisen: "Actually, I think it's a good thing."

The girl quickly looked away when Kurokawa Kazuya looked at her, and spoke in a rather serious tone.

Regarding being looked down upon.

Reisen wasn't upset at all, but the rabbit seemed to take it all for granted.

At that moment, she shook her ear at Kurokawa Kazuya again.

After learning that there was nothing special on the back of the book, Reisen focused all her attention on Kurokawa Kazuya.

She felt that the timing of her arrival today was really coincidental.

When they entered, Kurokawa Kazuya was in a state of heightened desire.

In this state, some of her ideas seem to be easier to realize.

Once a rabbit makes a decision, it will carry it out with exceptional determination.

This is related to his abilities, as well as the effort he put into his past military-style training.

Reisen, who was sitting, brought her ear even closer to Kurokawa Kazuya, pressing her cheek against Kurokawa Kazuya's legs.

The timid girl, under the influence of her own abilities, gradually began to enter a state of single-minded fanaticism.

As the girl approached, Kurokawa Kazuya reacted almost instinctively, taking a step back.

Reisen: "I can tell that Lord Kurokawa has feelings for me."

From Reisen's perspective of observing fluctuations, Kurokawa Kazuya's psychology is almost completely revealed.

Kazuya Kurokawa: "..."

Reisen is clearly a submissive rabbit.

But being stared at by the other party's red eyes at this moment, he felt even more pressure than when facing Kaguya.

After all, when facing Reisen, one's mind can be completely read.

There's a feeling that all my dark thoughts have been completely seen through by the other person in an instant.

It's still that indisputable situation, presented to the other party in the form of a visual image.

Reisen: "Kurokawa-sama must have had thoughts of completely possessing me, the Moon Rabbit, and everyone else in town now."

The rabbit recounts the information it gleaned from observing Kurokawa and Miya while filming and engaging in various activities in this small town.

For a rabbit that can see emotions, even the darkest mind has nowhere to hide.

To put it another way, those dark thoughts might actually attract Reisen's attention even more, making her focus on them even more.

PS1: It's time for the cute bunny! (laughs)

PS2: Hehehe~ Vote for me~ 10,000 chapters~ (Seriously)

Chapters 1-3 Reisen Proposes a Deal

From a fluctuating perspective, everything appears as a constantly pulsating arc.

From a fluctuating perspective, everyone's emotions are laid bare.

The rabbit on the moon, from the moment it came to the ground.

The scenery around her that she saw was completely different from that on the moon.

The filthy earth was indeed as the moon people had described, filled with all sorts of filth.

Compared to the less desireful Lunarians, and compared to the selfless and devoted Rabbits.

The emotions of people on Earth, which they themselves cannot even understand, are like mixing all the colorful paints together and splattering them randomly on paper.

That's definitely not good-looking, at least not as good-looking as the Moon Rabbit and the Moon People.

This may explain why Reisen was only interested in the role she played in "The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter" and not in Kurokawa Kazuya.

Because the other party is also a person from the ground.

The other person's emotions are equally chaotic, murky, and constantly shifting, with dark thoughts always lingering in their heart.

Reisen dislikes Lunarians and Moon Rabbits, but this never means that Reisen is not prejudiced against Earthlings.

If Kurokawa and Mi have an obsession with emotions...

So, the selfish rabbit, because she has been surrounded by the selfless moon rabbits for many years, also has a certain tendency towards the purity of her individual emotions.

Compared to people on land, perhaps the wild animals in the forest are more in line with Reisen's perception of cleanliness.

"Clearly wanting to possess it, yet restraining and hesitating; clearly having desires in one's heart, yet stubbornly insisting on taking things slowly. Evil thoughts occasionally surface, but are stopped by cowardice. When facing me, desires arise as well, yet one still does not act, even though it is clearly within reach."

"If we're talking about who has the strongest desires and the widest reach in this town, it would have to be you, Lord Kurokawa."

The rabbit on the moon stared intently at Kurokawa Kazuya as it spoke.

She was leaning against the wall, her snow-white thighs standing straight, her body also slightly tense.

She was observing the other person's current emotions and recounting everything she had observed in the past.

Kazuya Kurokawa: "..."

I had just lain down to sleep when a strange rabbit came to my door and brutally exposed my true feelings.

What should I do in this situation?

That's a really good question.

Logically speaking, given the current superior-subordinate relationship between Kurokawa Kazuya and Reisen, it's unreasonable for her to say such things to her.

Not to mention…

The purple-haired rabbit openly displayed its disgust towards Kurokawa Kazuya.

The girl's red eyes reflected Kurokawa Kazuya in the darkness.

His emotions were genuine and quite disgusted.

Kazuya Kurokawa: "So if you hate me, why did you come over so late at night to remind me about Kaguya?"

Looking at the rabbit in front of him, Kurokawa Kazumi made a sarcastic remark.

Reisen: "Because I didn't want Shirakawa to just disappear like that."

The roles played by Shirakawa and Kurokawa in "The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter".

Kazuya Kurokawa: "Is that so..."

Nodding, Kurokawa Kazuya showed no particular emotion whatsoever at Reisen's words.

After all, Kurokawa and Yano clearly saw the rabbit in the moon before them.

The disgust she was showing at this moment, apart from that directed at Kurokawa and Mi, was primarily directed at Reisen herself.

Reisen hates herself more than she hates Kurokawa Kazuya.

There's no reason why a rabbit, who can directly observe emotions, wouldn't be able to notice something that even Kurokawa and Mi could see.

But the other person just stared straight at Kurokawa Kazuya, waiting for an answer.

Kazuya Kurokawa: "If we're talking about possessiveness, I guess I do have it. It's probably a bit like PTSD symptoms? I always have this feeling that if the people I met when the town was first built, everything might fall apart."

Perhaps it was because of the timidity shown by the rabbit in front of me, and its self-loathing.

At this moment, Kurokawa Kazuya spoke in a comforting tone.

People who lack inner security tend to think they are always surrounded by emotions and always look for reasons to justify everything they have.

Those who were truly close to Kurokawa and Miya, such as Kaguya, Hanami, and Yuyuko, were all destined to leave. In the past, their relationship had always remained at a relatively superficial level.

It's normal for Kurokawa and Miyako to feel insecure at times like this.

This insecurity prompts a change in mindset.

Ironically, the most important figures in the town these days are all women, so Kurokawa Kazuya's thoughts naturally tend to gravitate in that direction.

Of course, just as he told Yukari Yakumo, he had no intention of actively developing a romantic relationship.

After all, love is something that's too offensive and too unstable no matter how you look at it.

What he actively promoted was to help those around him gradually align their life direction and expectations with his own.

Let them see living with you as something so commonplace that they would never even think of refusing it.

To put it bluntly...

— Gradually transforming their ideals and pursuits into their own shape.

Reisen: "This is actually more extreme and ugly. Although you don't actively pursue love, you don't mind developing love in the process. Love is just an emotion, but you want to possess all emotions."

The moon rabbit symbolizes Kurokawa Kazuya's inner thoughts.

Kazuya Kurokawa: "Now that you mention it, Reisen, I do seem pretty wicked."

He was making fun of himself, but his tone was lighthearted.

If it were Reisen who had just arrived, and they had been caught off guard by such a surprise attack, Kurokawa Kazuya would probably have felt genuinely uncomfortable, as if his inner thoughts had been laid bare.
