Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Page 1480

Kousaka Kyosuke glanced at the spider lily that had already walked up to him, and almost wanted to reply, but he held back in the end.

"I've already given you my body, what more do you want?"

"Kinnara, let's begin," Enma suddenly commanded.

"it is good!"

Kinnara quickly responded.

Kyosuke Kosaka also slowly summoned an ordinary sword, preparing for battle.

Because the Sanzu River is filled with many dead souls, and it also hides countless ghouls and corrupted demons. Their strength is not great for Kousaka Kyosuke, but their immortality is quite troublesome.

clang clang ~

Kinnara began to play the biwa, and the plaintive sound touched the deepest parts of countless souls. Soon, heart-wrenching howls echoed from the Sanzu River...

Meanwhile, the demons that had been temporarily held back by the barrier began to riot, and the barrier was on the verge of collapse.

After a moment's thought, Kousaka Kyosuke decided not to use his power to maintain it.

Compared to defense, stopping the demons' next attack by killing them should be more time-saving and less strenuous, even if it's a bit disgusting.

"Curse!"

Countless streaks of starlight transformed into a silver rainstorm, relentlessly reaping the demons that had charged out.

Kousaka Kyosuke secretly analyzed the situation and realized that Ara's use of the power of the stars was also very powerful; he needed to learn more about that...

In short, the group worked together to save the spirits of the dead in the Sanzu River, and naturally, they didn't forget their main task of exploring and even collecting the "Void." All of this was being carried out quietly...

Day 486 of crossing

"Nothingness" has been successfully collected.

Seimei and Ara went ahead, while Kousaka Kyosuke, Kagura, Kinnara, and Yaobikuni stayed behind to contribute to the reconstruction of the Underworld.

After a quick breakfast, Kousaka Kyosuke, who was quietly maintaining the weapon for Princess Goldfish, suddenly found his vision go white.

"Give."

It was the spider lily that handed something to Kyosuke Kousaka.

Kyosuke Kosaka looked puzzled: "This fabric feels somewhat familiar..."

The red spider lily bluntly stated, "It's the opposite of what the cotton tree offers in return."

"...I feel that your fabric is more attractive."

"don't want?"

"Yes, but could you have a little more?"

Kyosuke Kosaka honestly accepted the cloth offered by Higanbana, intending to try it out later, imitating Enma.

Just as Kousaka Kyosuke received the item, he heard a "Dream on!" drift over, only to see Higanbana turn and leave with a flourish. That woman…

437. The Reconstruction of the Underworld / Watching the Show / Temporarily Back

"Kyosuke, the weapons of the demons have also been brought."

Not long after the spider lily left, Princess Goldfish and Princess Blue remotely controlled several open boxes to come over.

Even without careful smelling, Kyosuke Kosaka could sense the nauseating, bloody stench so strong it would knock a normal person unconscious.

Inside the box were the weapons used by the demons.

—In fact, Kousaka Kyosuke, who has not taken a break or done anything else for the time being, is not only protecting the weapons of the Goldfish Princess, but also plans to deal with the demons as well.

After all, Kousaka Kyosuke did see the dead members of the Qin clan among the undead army.

Most of them died in the Battle of Suzuka, and some had just died recently. In short, almost all of them were killed by Yamata no Orochi.

Let's get back to the main topic.

When Kyosuke Kosaka saw these dead wives and their families, it was impossible for him not to offer some assistance.

Finally, considering the influence of some dissenting opinions, we decided to treat everyone equally.

They simply imbued their weapons with more power in secret, so as not to completely disappear from the world.

"Sorry... I've been cleaning for a long time, but the smell is still so strong."

Qingji wore a very guilty expression.

Princess Goldfish lowered her head in shame, looking as if she was ready to be punished at any moment.

Kyosuke Kosaka chuckled, "It's alright, I'll take care of these."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and summoned crimson flames, waving them at the boxes that were already placed on the ground.

The unpleasant smell vanished without a trace in an instant.

"The box... didn't burn at all?" Princess Goldfish stared wide-eyed, seemingly finding Kousaka Kyosuke's actions quite miraculous.

Qing Ji, who also uses fire as a weapon, showed obvious respect.

"Actually, once you reach a level of complete control over fire, you can easily achieve this. Just like your control over water, when you reach a high level, you might be able to trap enemies with water without letting them get wet at all..."

"Huh? Is it possible to do that?"

"It should be possible... Isn't it the same principle as controlling flames? Besides, the water you control isn't necessarily liquid; can't you treat it as a solid?"

"Liquid? Solid?"

Princess Goldfish was completely dumbfounded. She suddenly felt that she might not have seen enough.

Kyosuke Kosaka noticed that Princess Goldfish's worldview was being shaken, so he helped her out: "That's right."

As he spoke, he conjured water out of thin air and closed one of Goldfish Princess's hands.

Eh? !

Princess Goldfish watched in surprise as Kyosuke Kousaka performed his actions. At that moment, she could feel the familiar touch of water, but she didn't feel any moisture; at most, it felt cool.

"You can't be too rigid in your thinking," Qingji advised.

Princess Goldfish stared blankly, "Let me calm down first..."

Qingji encouraged, "Yes, keep it up."

She also knew exactly what Princess Goldfish was thinking: how could liquid water not lose moisture when it comes into contact with other things?

This is indeed a bit counterintuitive.

Just like how Aohime was shocked when she saw Kousaka Kyosuke wielding flames as if he were manipulating solid matter, this is something that definitely needs to be carefully considered.

"Then I'll begin maintaining the weapons."

"Okay, I'll just watch from the side, it'll be very quiet~" Qingji quickly said.

Princess Goldfish chimed in, "Me too."

“No problem.” Kousaka Kyosuke smiled; he knew the two girls wanted to stay by his side.

Meanwhile, Higanbana has her own things to deal with. Ever since Kagura heard about her situation, she has often been thinking about magic on her own these days. After finishing her thoughts, she comes over to discuss them with Kousaka Kyosuke. It is estimated that she will come to find him in a while.

Kinnara, on the other hand, was resting quietly.

The performance that guided the emotions of the dead had taken a lot of her energy, and she still had to continue, so she was paying extra attention to her physical condition.

Yes, Kinnara hopes to work even harder to utilize her skills in the days to come.

Kyosuke Kosaka understood Kinnara's joy perfectly.

After all, the role of music in this era is difficult to express concretely; for most people, it is merely a stabilizer for regulating their emotions.

Needless to say, the estates were used as a weak substitute for cigarettes and alcohol.

While this may sound crude, that's the reality.

As if on cue, Aohime suddenly said, "Kyosuke, aren't you bored? Actually, I'm pretty good at playing the biwa~"

"Okay." Kyosuke Kousaka agreed without even thinking.

If a spouse wants to prove themselves, are we not going to give them a chance?

"I……"

"Give me a back massage."

Seeing that Princess Goldfish had stopped thinking about water control and, like Princess Blue, wanted to show off, Kyosuke Kousaka smiled and made a suggestion.

Princess Goldfish pouted: "I didn't say anything, but if your back is sore, I can help you massage it."

Kyosuke Kosaka chuckled but said nothing more.

Tsundere characters, like Yukino, Nino, and Tsukuyomi, aren't they all tsundere?

They may be stubborn in their words, but their actions tell a different story.

As soon as she thought of that, Princess Goldfish quickly started gently massaging Kyosuke Kousaka's back as if she were snatching something away.

Seeing this, Qingji had no choice but to go find the pipa. She had many more ways to massage backs... But Jinyuji wasn't having an easy time either, so she had to be understanding.

Two more hours passed.
