Update

That week, I managed to create my first yuujin under Kannon's tutelage.

"Good lord! What is up with these things being so huge?!"

My breath was taken away as the chakra I had managed to expel manifested before me, taking the form of a large tiger, with snow white fur and black stripes. It softly turned around and padded in my direction, looking straight at me with its icy blue eyes. I felt a shiver run down my spine; I was mindblown.

"Hey man!" I greeted the animal cheerfully, raising my hand for a high five. I don't know what I was expecting, but I definitely was not expecting it to rear up on its hind legs and lift a paw to my outstretched hand. As it did, it towered over me, and in the background I could hear Kannon and Yukata's gasps.

"Nice!" roared Kannon in approval, marching over and slapping me on the back as my yuujin dropped back to the ground on all fours. "She's huge!"

I blanched as the yuujin turned to Kannon, who immediately stopped laughing.

"Hey, don't you attack me now," she chastised, wagging her finger at it. And I'm not sure whether or not I was seeing things. but the yuujin rolled their eyes at her.

"Yup, that's definitely yours," sighed Kannon, patting the yuujin on the head. "Well, one of them anyway. You picked up fast. Now you just have to learn how to create two at the same time. I'm sure you can release the yuujin if you can make it. Try releasing this one."

For the rest of the session, Kannon focused on getting me to balance my chakra evenly so that I could create two yuujin, because hey, the more the merrier, right?

It had already been days since she first began teaching me the art of seijutsu; and now, I could quite proudly say I had almost gotten the hang of it.

An hour passed with Kannon lounging lazily behind me with Yukata and Ayumi, calling out words of encouragement here and there as she scrolled through her phone.

"You're not even watching me!" I groaned as I doubled over, breathing heavily.

"You're doing fine!" she called back nonchalantly. Beside her, Yukata smiled and gave me the thumbs up as she pushed Ayumi's pram back and forth. "Don't work too hard! Sasuke will kill me if anything happens to you."

"Whatever," I sighed, having enough for the day. "Look, I'm tired now. Can we finish now?"

"Mkay."

***

I pulled off the double yuujin feat the next day, and once I was confident it was something I was capable of doing more times in the future, I took Ayumi with me to see Sasuke right away.

"Tera! Where are you going?!"

"Gotta update Sasuke! Thanks for today!"

I made it to the prison in no time, pushing Ayumi as fast as I could muster, and was greeted by the one and only Shibuki.

"Hey! Visiting already?"

I sighed as I got into the lift with him, wheeling in the pram.

"Yeah, just needed to tell Sasuke something. How's your staff room gossip about us going these days?"

"Nothing new in the romance department, but a couple of our guards walked past you training the other day," he shrugged. "They were impressed by what they saw. The thought of you and Sasuke being a power couple is the newest rumour popping up these days. Sometimes they talk about how powerful your kids would be. You know, just standard gossip. You could say you're a bit of a celebrity these days."
