Chapter 268: , Finally Reached This Step

At night, the exhausted Ryosuke returned home.

At this moment, the moon was already in the treetops, and the night was deep.

After the succession ceremony ended during the day, Mizunuki Ryosuke hosted a banquet at night for Kuroshima Morita, Hozuki Mangetsu, Maeda Yuanshi, and other Kirigakure high-level officials to connect with each other.

After three rounds of drinking, Ryosuke dealt with some problems after the succession ceremony during the day.

After handling everything, Ryosuke also returned home for the first time in four days.

Perhaps it was the sound of Ryosuke entering the door that alarmed Liuhua and her daughter, so the two hurriedly came to Ryosuke to serve him in changing clothes.

"Welcome back, Ryosuke."

The mother and daughter greeted Ryosuke in unison.

Seeing two somewhat haggard pretty faces, Ryosuke felt a little distressed.

"Aunt Liuhua, Lian."

"Why haven't you slept yet."

While speaking, Ryosuke took off the imperial robe symbolizing the Mizukage status and handed it to Lian.

"It's okay, isn't it because you haven't returned yet."

Lian shook her head gently, and after taking Ryosuke's imperial robe, she revealed a gentle smile.

"Hungry, right, Ryosuke."

"There is dinner reserved for you in the kitchen, eat it before going to sleep."

Seeing this situation, Liuhua also smiled faintly and said slowly to Ryosuke.

"Okay."

Mizunuki Ryosuke touched his stomach; he had been busy for half the night and was indeed a bit hungry, so he didn't refuse Liuhua's proposal.

Seeing this, Liuhua revealed a smile and turned to heat up the food for Ryosuke.

"I'll go prepare bath water for you, Ryosuke."

"You rest in the living room first."

At the same time, Lian also got up to prepare bath water for Ryosuke.

Looking at the backs of the two women, Ryosuke's heart suddenly warmed.

A warmth unique to "home" dissolved the fatigue Ryosuke had felt for several days.

Under the busyness of Liuhua and Lian, after Ryosuke finished dinner and took a bath, he was alone in his room, looking at the moon in the night sky that was faintly tinged with blood, lost in thought.

Perhaps because he possessed the soul of a Chinese person, Ryosuke often couldn't avoid being sentimental about the moon.

Even in this world, the meaning represented by the moon is not beautiful, but Ryosuke still couldn't avoid the custom.

After a long time, Ryosuke sorted out his chaotic thoughts and stretched out his hand towards the moon slowly.

In his perspective, it was as if the entire moon was held in his hand at this moment.

"Finally reached this step..."

Ryosuke stood silently on the spot, reflecting on everything.

From an ordinary Chunin in Kirigakure Village to the Mizukage above ten thousand people in the Ninja World, Ryosuke did it in just a few months.

Originally, Ryosuke thought that with his personality, he would never choose to do the hard work of Mizukage in his life. ===== CHAPTER 270 =====
