Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Jingzi couldn't help but laugh.

“Madam Sushang, I think you should just be yourself. The ladylike demeanor doesn’t suit you.”

Chitanda said helplessly, "Shizuko, don't say that... It's not right to mock other people's pursuits like that."

Shizuko: "Alright, that was my fault. But if Lady Sushang tries to act like a lady, I'm afraid Lord Kyosuke will find it very difficult to adapt."

Su Chang: "Actually, I don't want to be a lady forever, I just want to be one for a while..."

Shizuko: "There shouldn't be such a good thing in the world. If Lady Sushang could live a day like Lady Xiangzi, composing waka poems and appreciating fragrances, then she should be considered a lady."

Su Chang: "Never mind, I was just saying it offhand. Let's change the subject to Hiyoribou—how's Hiyoribou doing today?"

Hiyoribou was surprised that Sushang brought up her so quickly, and immediately replied in a slightly flustered manner.

"It's so good! Kyosuke-sama taught me how to use demonic power, and also practical demonic arts! He's really amazing!"

what……

Yingcao tried her best not to let her whispers be noticed.

"Does Lord Kyosuke personally teach Hiyoribou sorcery?"

I felt even more disappointed.

Yingcao was merely practicing archery with Kousaka Kyosuke.

If Kyosuke Kousaka could personally teach her... that would be even better.

No, why would she think that?

That's very incorrect.

As the master, Kyosuke Kousaka had neither the need nor the obligation to do so.

She should try her best to master the healing magic, as well as the basic martial arts and archery skills that can protect her!

That might earn me some praise?

"..."

Kagura, who noticed Yingcao's hidden disappointment, seemed to be deep in thought.

"Does Yingcao also want Kyosuke to teach her magic? But Yingcao's magic is already excellent."

"In terms of the use of demonic power, swordsmanship, and archery, both Yaodao-hime and Hakuro are excellent teachers."

Kagura, who was seriously considering Yingcao's situation, was coming up with an idea.

For example, how can Yingcao help Kousaka Kyosuke?

If that's the case, Yingcao will definitely be very happy.

That way, you won't feel disappointed.

Time flies.

After the group finished eating and taking a bath, it was time for them to go to sleep.

Menreiki suggested sleeping with Hiyoribou and Hotaru while she was sleeping.

The reason given was that "the three are demons, and the use of demonic power can be better explored."

Others were used to it.

It was common for close friends to sleep together in the bedroom.

This is normal.

"Does Yingcao also want to learn sorcery from Kyosuke?"

They had just finished making the bed together when Mian Lingqi asked a question without realizing it.

Yingcao crashed instantly.

It took a long time for him to come to his senses.

"I……"

After stammering for a while, Yingcao still couldn't say anything specific.

At this point, Hiyoribou offered a suggestion.

"Since Yingcao is Lord Kyosuke's shikigami, it's perfectly normal for you to ask him for advice. Don't be shy."

"Yingcao is embarrassed."

"No, I am, I am... I don't want to bother Lord Kyosuke."

Yingcao's face turned bright red, and she finally quickly gave her reasons.

Seeing this, Menreiki understood the situation perfectly.

"These things need to be said out loud so that Kyosuke will know. If you make Kyosuke guess what you're thinking, it will only bother him more. He cares about you a lot; he mentioned you to me before."

Although I felt it was strange to help Kyosuke Kousaka comfort Yingcao.

But Menreiki doesn't mind helping.

a piece of cake.

It's too much trouble to deal with it, and I can't stand the sight of it.

Remembering how much trouble it was for Kyosuke Kousaka to take care of her, Menreiki felt she should do the same.

Otherwise, wouldn't that mean she didn't take their relationship seriously at all?

"Lord Kyosuke has always cared about me..."

Hearing Mianlingqi's explanation, Yingcao felt dizzy.

"Since both the White Wolf and the Demon Sword Princess, who are shikigami, have become Kyosuke's wives, it's quite reasonable for me, as a shikigami, to become Kyosuke's wife as well."

Hiyori-bo listened quietly, her emotions beyond words.

Ever since she arrived at the manor, she had been hearing the name Kousaka Kyosuke.

It's still the same now.

She wasn't surprised.

In the end, Kyosuke Kousaka is a very good person.

Isn't it natural that it's become a topic of discussion?

"Yingcao is so lucky to be able to become Kyosuke-sama's shikigami."

Hiyoribou Secret Passage

She admired him, but she wasn't jealous.

Being hired is already a stroke of luck for her; how could she possibly hope for more?

Then again.

Hiyoribou became curious about another question—what is the relationship between Menreiki and Kousaka Kyosuke?

Even now, it seems she hasn't confirmed anything.

It must be because of the master's shikigami, right?

should be.

Before long, the three of them stopped chatting and went to sleep.

Day 427 of crossing

Kyosuke Kousaka, who had just returned from Kyoto, was surprised that Kagura had recommended Yingcao to come and help as well.

Kyosuke Kousaka, who trusted Kagura implicitly, agreed.

Come to think of it, she had always regarded Yingcao as a healing support and semi-combatant.

It seems that it can indeed be helpful in researching corn seeds nowadays...

"It's so effective at promoting growth—"

Chitanda's exclamation rang out first, her large amethyst eyes fixed on Yingcao.

Kyosuke Kosaka understood that they could add another person to the corn research team.

The logistical tasks should be completed soon.

328. Preliminary Completion / Pokemon / I Consider You a Friend...

Day 428 of crossing

The abilities of Yingcao and Rihebo to promote crop growth appear to complement each other.

The research progress has accelerated further.

The time required for trial and error began to shorten rapidly.

The first batch of fixed species was studied, and preparations for formal planting began.
