In Naruto: Reborn With Talent

After enjoying the night together, Rei and Kaguya woke up in the late afternoon and it took them two more hours, shower included, to finally get to their breakfast slash lunch.

Kin and Riful were with them too, Riful contently sitting opposite Kaguya and swinging her feet back and forth as they didn't reach the ground due to her childish body.

Kin, on the other hand, approached the sitting Rei, making him look at her in a deadpan as she dramatically fell to her knees next to his chair, "Thank you for saving me from the death from exhaustion, Master!" She exclaimed with a tearful expression, her lips quivering.

Rei was briefly stunned and... weirded out but before Kin could get closer and hug his thigh while 'coincidentally' rubbing her hands on some more intimate part of his, he chuckled and abruptly poked her forehead with two of his fingers, putting into it enough strength to make her body fall over and causing the bewildered Kin to end up lying on her back on the floor as she stared at the ceiling with wide eyes.

"A weak attempt, Kin. Don't forget that I know where you came from and how you were raised." Rei hummed before turning back to his food, having a hard time believing Kin actually did try to seduce him in such a half-assed way.

Sure, the former Oto kunoichi was still just a kid and obviously not trained in the art of seduction but that was just... sad.

'She must really hate cooking for Kaguya if she resorted to something like this.' Rei amusedly thought.

Kin sullenly pouted, "I meant what I said." She insisted only for Kaguya to rebuke her.

"Stop lying on the ground and make yourself useful by eating your lunch, girl." Kaguya disgruntledly said, giving Kin an unamused stare with her narrowed eyes.

That prompted Kin to instantly stand up at attention before she obeyed Kaguya's words as if she had months-long training under the woman instead of just being her cook for the last several days.

Rei looked straight at Kin who was seating herself down on her chair opposite him and raised his eyebrow... only for her to bow her head down in shame.

He could understand. Kaguya could be... difficult to handle even for him. For someone as powerless as Kin, this might have been the worst punishment she could have received.

Just imagining having Kaguya breathing down his back as he cooked and demanding him to make cookies faster while he could do nothing about it was making him shudder at the nightmarish notion.

'I will have to swap her out soon lest she goes crazy.' Rei mused.

Seeing that Kaguya didn't stop staring at Kin in discontent and it was making the girl really uncomfortable, Rei decided to intervene. Of course, only after he had his share of amusement due to Kin's discomfort.

"Stop wishing you could combust the girl with your eyes, Kaguya." Rei admonished his rabbit-girl, ruffling her hair a bit, much to her hidden delight but outward huff of irritation.

"She is a calculating bitch who wouldn't mind climbing on the table and spreading her legs for you if she saw you wanted her. You gotta be strict with these kinds of sluts." Kaguya muttered, making things really awkward in the room.

Kin's face went beet red and Rei let out a dry laugh while Riful was blissfully ignoring the happenings and just munched on her food.

Unfortunately for Kin, Rei would not be defending her from that accusation. In their world, strength mattered and if nothing else, this experience of being Kaguya's maidservant should be very valuable, motivating her to reach greater heights.

Unlike Tayuya who had a similar ability to Kin, the girl's progress was abysmal. She lacked Tayuya's drive. Kin was mostly a follower, a pawn, a cannon fodder. And she was fine with that. She didn't strive to improve herself at all. It was no wonder Orochimaru was fine with sacrificing her for the Reanimation Jutsu. With this kind of attitude, she would have never grown past low-chunin rank anyway.

Of course, Rei didn't expect Kin to become S-rank in a week. She didn't have Tayuya's advantages, skills, or chakra levels. Hell, she didn't have what it takes to be S-rank, period.

But he did expect her to show at least some effort to improve, which she didn't and that earned her this little apprenticeship under Kaguya to remind her that power mattered. Kaguya had a very special way of motivating people. She was a miracle worker when it came to that.

A few days under her and Kin wanted nothing else than to leave this hell.

Frankly, Rei was happy for the lucky addition of Riful. The female Abyssal One could cook quite well and loved serving someone as strong as Kaguya. She was honestly god-sent.

At the end of the day, Rei only wanted the best for Kin. He wouldn't mind her being just an ordinary servant with rudimentary ninja training if that's what the girl really desired. But he could clearly see she wanted more.

The way Kin looked at Rei's other wives with jealousy and desire in her eyes...

The girl wanted to be powerful but her mentality belonged to someone who never tried to attain her desires. Rei didn't mind helping her a bit even if it meant mentally scarring her in the short term.

"Heh~, this is actually delicious. Your cooking is getting better and better, Riful." Rei suddenly praised the food.

"Thank you. I will become the best cook for Lady Kaguya!" Riful enthusiastically exclaimed, her eyes narrowing in happiness.

It was quite weird but oddly endearing to see this murderous human-eating monster find such a simple joy in serving Kaguya simply because she was strong.

Throwing Riful a playful look, Rei jokingly teased, "I hope you didn't add some special ingredient of your liking, though."

Riful didn't get the joke...

"Don't worry. The only plate with mashed human intestines is mine." She said in a matter-of-fact manner and happy-go-lucky tone, causing Kaguya to raise her eyebrow at that admission while Kin went promptly green, her fork stopping just an inch short of entering her mouth as the girl now eyed her food warily.

"Too much information." Rei sheepishly chuckled, suddenly losing his appetite.

After that, the only two who didn't care and were stuffing their cheeks were Riful and Kaguya while Kin was doing her best not to throw up and earn herself the punishment for spoiling Kaguya's appetite.

She had seen many messed up things in her service for Orochimaru but the image of having human meat mixed in her food made her stomach turn anyway.

The lunch lasted ten more minutes... because it simply took that long for Kaguya to completely finish every dish on the table, finishing even Rei's and Kin's unfinished portions, only leaving the Riful's food untouched. She really loved to eat a lot and Rei couldn't bring himself to stop her.

It wasn't as if she could grow fat anyway so he let her enjoy herself.

"Well, then, now that we are fed and watered," When all the food was finished, Rei turned to the side, looking at Kaguya with a small mirthful smile on his lips, "Ready to scream yourself hoarse at your dead son?"
