Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Page 1367

In fact, Tennoji Miri was a little confused.

She was unaware that Minamoto no Yorimitsu was building an army to fight against Yamata no Orochi, but she did know that he was building an army to fight against some terrifying enemy.

Therefore, she subconsciously believed that the orders issued by the imperial court were not necessarily good things.

"Although my thinking is cruel, I still understand what kind of disaster a crisis in Kyoto would cause to the entire country."

Tennoji Temple is beautiful and has a basic overall perspective.

Knowing what kind of huge upheaval would occur in the country when the situation in Kyoto, the capital, became known.

“It’s good news,” Tennoji Miri said. “I just don’t know if you, Kyosuke-sama, are overworking yourself.”

Kyosuke Kosaka was slightly surprised, but secretly raised his opinion of Tennoji's beauty, and gave a reply.

"That's alright. The people who went to escort the other monks and nuns to the outskirts just happen to lack some experience, and this operation will fill that gap. Besides, the troops that Lord Raikou has assembled show no intention of taking action..."

"It seems everything is going according to Kyosuke's plan."

"You flatter me, I'm not particularly special."

Kyosuke Kosaka said modestly.

Seeing that the matter had been discussed sufficiently, he left with Kagura and Kinnara beside him.

Speaking of Kagura, she fed that little nun snacks again. What a kind and considerate child.

"..."

After saying goodbye to Kyosuke Kousaka and watching him leave, Misaki Tennoji's feelings for Kyosuke also increased.

During the conversation, she quickly noticed that Kyosuke Kosaka had sensed her concern about the safety of Kyoto and offered an explanation.

This not only demonstrates Kyosuke Kousaka's keen observation skills, but also his respect for her, as he was willing to take the time and effort to explain the situation to her.

Many men in the modern world wouldn't necessarily be willing to patiently explain.

"Kyosuke-sama is truly a good man."

Tennoji Beauty once again comes to this conclusion.

Having just left the nunnery, Xixi tactfully allowed the beauty of Tennoji to continue to be imagined.

Secretly, this increased the assessment of Kyosuke Kousaka's charm index.

Even this well-traveled heiress of a major conglomerate was "conquered"? That's quite a terrifying charm.

After barely exchanging a few words with Kyosuke Kosaka, Xixi began to doubt her ability to resist unknown temptations...

Click, click-click~

A strange, crisp sound.

Coming to her senses, Xixi looked towards the source of the sound and discovered that Haiyue was secretly eating something in a corner.

Yes, the girl named Kagura always gives Kaigetsu snacks and candy.

Then Xixi immediately became confused—Is Kyosuke-sama a lolicon?

So, she has no hope.

Well!

In the suburbs, Kousaka Kyosuke, feeling a subtle malice forcibly covering him, suppressed the urge to investigate.

After further adapting to the rules of this world, his perception became more acute, and he was able to notice more and more things.

Kyosuke Kosaka is especially able to detect those who have no morals and like to speak ill of him.

My head is a little sore, and my mood is sometimes a bit off.

If we haven't fully adapted and taken control of it, then we can only continue to maintain this state.

The advantage is that it allows you to discover all sorts of small, big, and critical problems anytime, anywhere; let's ignore the disadvantages for now.

"Kyosuke, are you just going to ignore the Snow Mountain Clan's affairs?" Kinnara suddenly asked, addressing a question that had been bothering him.

Kyosuke Kosaka replied, "Relocation isn't that simple. Like some crops, they probably won't leave so easily until harvest time."

Like Nicole's parents.

They left because they wanted to get the fruits of their labor.

In economics, this is called sunk cost. In real life, how many people can grit their teeth and be ruthless when faced with sunk costs?

"Perhaps it is as Suzuhiko-hime said, the simplest and easiest way is to order them to move away as a saintess."

"Tell her not to just talk the talk, but to take action first and then talk the walk."

"Then I'll tell her next time we meet."

“Tomorrow, I’ll take the Snow Mountain Clan members who live in the manor back again,” said Kousaka Kyosuke.

Having witnessed prosperity, it is difficult to return to a simple life.

This is Kyosuke Kosaka's assessment of the new generation of the Snow Mountain tribe.

For these people, saying things like "simplicity is the ultimate sophistication" is probably just empty talk.

If you have a better life, you won't choose a worse one. We're all ordinary people, so why wouldn't we envy others who eat well, drink well, and have fun?

Unless you've experienced everything, you can't take things calmly. Otherwise, isn't it normal to be blinded by the allure of prosperity?

Kyosuke Kosaka didn't think his manor was anything special, but it was definitely enough compared to the stagnant environment of the Snow Mountain Clan.

Let these people from the snowy mountains see more new things, and when they go back, they will definitely want to leave again.

This can be deduced without even thinking about it.

Kyosuke Kousaka is quite adept at guiding people to recognize their own desires.

"Should we split up? That would be more efficient."

Kagura then spoke of the imperial decree.

Kyosuke Kosaka glanced around and nodded: "Split up. Set up barriers along the edges of the Kinai region and place the spirit talismans I made."

"Ok."

"Good~"

Kagura and Kinnara responded one after another.

Then the group split up and began their work.

As for the government offices?

Kyosuke Kosaka had already given orders to begin the operation.

In terms of efficiency, they are definitely no match for that group.

Of course, appearances still need to be put on a good show, which is sometimes more important than the results.

Ultimately, some of the monks and nuns who come to participate in the Dharma assembly will inevitably suffer misfortune; you can't blame all the deaths on him.

It's better to pretend that "I've already tried my best".

To question him further would be incredibly inhumane.

the other side.

The others, who were already acting on orders, proceeded along the various official roads.

Hikigaya, who did not travel with Ayanokoji, Shijou Tei, Horikita Manabu, and others, simply led Hannya to search various hidden paths.

Hachiman's mission is different from everyone else's.

He was in charge of searching for and protecting some monks who might have come to Kyoto via side roads.

"Xiao Ba, I still don't quite understand why people would rather worship Buddha than pray to the gods around them, even though there is no Buddha here."

"Uh... for psychological comfort, and also because gods are actually very busy."

"Pfft!"

Hannya couldn't help but laugh. Hikigaya was practically saying that the gods wouldn't care about these nobles at all.

Just as Hikigaya had said, a look of disdain and sneer flashed through Hannya's mind.

"Having done too many bad things, I know that the gods probably won't forgive me, so I feel guilty."

"Speaking of which, I heard from monsters who have adventured overseas that Buddhas exist in the Tang Kingdom," Prajna said, bringing up what she knew.

"Even if they did, they probably wouldn't be able to come."

"That's hard to say. In recent years, I've felt that the power of many gods has diminished."

"Let's talk less about these things..."

Hachiman coughed, almost startled.

The gods in the heavens were terrifying beings in his eyes!

"Okay, I won't say anything, but I think you need to be prepared for this. In the future, we will definitely encounter many incredible beings."

"Yes, I was already mentally prepared!"

Hikigaya spoke to Hannya in a firm tone.
