Goddess of Ice; Reborn as Naruto's twin sister-Chapter 472: Yet another Story of the past... again... again

Chapter 472: Yet another Story of the past… again… again

***Author note***

Well, I usually write these when Yuna tells someone her backstory, but writing Bee’s dialog is giving me a headache. I’m already pretty bad at coming up with rhymes in German, so doing so in English becomes even more problematic. Initially, I actually decided not to write this one, but I might as well do it since it’s better than posting nothing at all.

By the way, in case you are interested in another Naruto ff, where mc banters with Kurama, I recommend “Other world chimera” by minimi22 on scribblehub.

***End of Author note***

Inside a vast hall, a woman with blue hair and pure white eyes sat on a throne that seemed to be entirely made out of ice. The throne was cushioned with materials that looked like they were woven out of snow, giving the throne a mysterious feeling.

Behind her stood a single maid. She would occasionally twitch while weird buzzing sounds were constantly radiating from her position. There were more people in the room, but neither of them paid any attention to her.

In front of the said woman and her maid were eleven people. Ten of them were standing with their backs straight, while one was kowtowing on the ground. After a few moments of silence, a mature man with blue hair, black cat ears and tail stepped forward. He glanced at the person kowtowing on the ground for a split second before his gaze returned to the person sitting on the throne.

“Mother, why did you summon us?”

A wide smile appeared on the woman’s face when she saw the serious expression on her child’s face. She looked at her eldest son with love-filled eyes and started speaking.

“Today, I have decided to initiate a plot I have been planning for quite a while. So, I have invited my ten most prominent children to help me with it.”

The backs of the ten people straightened even further when they heard that her mother wanted to rely on them. So far, it was always the other way around, so they couldn’t help but anticipate finally being able to help her. A woman with crimson, almost fire-like hair and a pair of dog ears stepped forward with an eager expression on her face.

“Mother Yuna, please tell us what to do. We will succeed no matter what you order us to do.”

The woman on the throne, Yuna, nodded in satisfaction when she heard the words of her eldest daughter. Funnily enough, Yuna’s eldest daughter didn’t inherit Yuna’s affinity for ice in the slightest and actually had an affinity for fire of all things. Naturally, Yuna didn’t care and simply found it rather curious. She wouldn’t discriminate against her children just because they had an unusual affinity.

“Well, as most of you had undoubtedly guessed already, this gathering has something to do with the single person in the room who is not of my bloodline.”

As Yuna said that, eleven pairs of eyes landed on the still kneeling young man, causing him to shudder.

“You may get up and raise your head.”

The kneeling person hesitated for a short moment before he got up and lifted his face, revealing the face of a relatively innocent-looking young man. That, paired with his overall meek look, made him look incredibly frail.

“Disciple greets the founder.”

The moment the young man saw Yuna, he immediately bowed to her and spoke a respectful greeting.

Yuna couldn’t help but chuckle at the young man, causing a chill to go down his spine.

“Although your words sound rather respectful, isn’t it rude to greet me while you are using a technique to change how your face looks like?”

Another chill went down the young man’s back when his secret was revealed so casually as he instantly turned around and fled the room, resulting in another chuckle from Yuna.

“You don’t actually believe you can run away from me, do you?”

Seemingly without any movement from Yuna, the young man’s feet froze to the ground preventing him from running away. As soon as the young man was caught, he glared at Yuna with hatred, making her laugh in amusement.

“Now, now, no need to glare at me like that. How about you release that face-changing technique first so everyone can see your real face?”

The young man hesitated for a short moment before he simply did what he was told to do. After all, he was already captured, so he could only wait and see whether he would get an opportunity to flee.

Moments later, he touched his face, causing it to change quite a bit. A few of Yuna’s ten children couldn’t help but reel back in shock when they saw the innocent-looking man’s real face.

It was a visage filled with nothing but hatred and vengeance. Now, he looked like someone who was willing to sacrifice everything he had just to get what he desired. Seeing the young man’s real facial expression, Yuna couldn’t help but smile. This was precisely the kind of person she was hoping to find.

“Good. Very good. Someone like you is exactly the person I need for my plan. But first, I will ask you a very important question. Obviously, you desire revenge. I don’t know who your target is, so let me ask you this: Is the target connected to my sect in any shape, form, or fashion?”

The young man was taken aback for a short moment before realizing what was going on.

‘She wants to use me. Or rather, she wants to use my desire for revenge for something. However, if my target has something to do with her sect, she will eliminate me here and now. Luckily, that is not the case. Additionally, I don’t mind being used as long as I can get my revenge.’

“No, my target has nothing to do with this sect. I joined with a fake identity to gain the strength necessary to get my revenge while staying anonymous. I hold no grudges against this sect.”

Yuna and the young man locked eyes for a moment, and after Yuna confirmed that she could see no lies in the eyes of the young man, she nodded in approval as a broad smile appeared on her face.

“Very well. In that case, I have a rather interesting mission for you.”

The young man straightened his back when he heard Yuna’s words as his expression showed nothing but determination. He realized that this might be a chance to increase the pace at which he got stronger significantly.

“Please tell me what you want me to do, sect mistress.”

A rather peculiar smile appeared on Yuna’s face as she answered the young man’s inquiry.

“Hehe, I want you to get bullied~”
