Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

For now, it's more important to appease this hair-eating demon.

If they stubbornly refuse to help with the recovery, the consequences are something no one wants to see.

Arrived at Fujiwara Yukinari's residence.

Kyosuke Kosaka asked everyone else to leave for the time being, including Kagura.

I brought the Hair-Eating Demon to see Fujiwara Yukinari.

"Hair, hair..."

"Don't worry, the person is here, and I guarantee that they will make your hair even blacker, shinier, thicker, and smoother than before."

Upon seeing Fujiwara Yukinari emerge from behind the curtain, Kousaka Kyosuke immediately reassured him.

Although Fujiwara Yukinari was still very handsome, he was clearly more concerned about his hair, which probably made him no different from the hair-eating demon.

After waiting for more than an hour, people must have been extremely anxious and their mental state was definitely not good.

The important thing is to appease them.

With the appearance of a strangely smooth, waist-length hairstyle, the worry and distress on Fujiwara Yukinari's face completely disappeared.

"It's even better than my hair before..."

"Hehe, I'm an expert when it comes to hair care."

"Hearing your self-praise, I have no choice but to agree..." Fujiwara Yukinari's expression betrayed his unusual reaction.

He had nothing to say to the hair-eating demon.

He's clearly the perpetrator, so why does he look so smug and proud?

Given that he has now fully recovered and there are other victims like him who need to recover, he decided not to cause any more trouble.

As long as my hair comes back, everything will be fine.

"Is it the same as before?" Kyosuke Kousaka asked, still feeling uneasy.

The hair-eating demon felt insulted and became somewhat angry.

"I can only say it's better than before! And there haven't been any other problems or troubles!"

"Okay, I'll just ask. Let's go restore the next one."

Kyosuke Kosaka didn't care about the hair-eating demon's attitude at all.

Once he truly got to know and interact with this guy, he realized that he shouldn't have any conflict with him.

Having already encountered both the demon princess and the white wolf, Kyosuke Kousaka wholeheartedly agrees with this principle.

That is, many monsters themselves possess a certain stubbornness and fierceness.

There's absolutely no benefit to stubbornly resisting it.

Like the Demon Blade Princess, even though she was originally a human, when she gets angry she can be so terrifying that she would kill even a god.

Like the white wolf, even though it is obedient and gentle, it is also very stubborn and fierce.

The wolf's ferocity gradually diminished to the point of being undetectable as its archery skills deepened.

"I'm leaving now, come back tonight."

Kousaka Kyosuke gestured for the Hair-Eating Demon to follow, while simultaneously raising his chin to signal Fujiwara Yukinari.

Fujiwara Yukinari waved with a faint smile, looking nonchalant and natural, without saying a word.

If it weren't for seeing his questioning manner towards Minamoto no Hiromasa that morning, Kousaka Kyosuke would have truly believed that he was being so reserved.

"I'm afraid Boya will be listed as the 'most unwelcome guest'."

Kousaka Kyosuke muttered secretly.

People don't like others to see their embarrassing side.

Clearly, he, Kagura, and Minamoto no Hiromasa all saw this side of Fujiwara no Yukinari this morning.

Among them, Kyosuke Kosaka had seen the embarrassing scene of Yukinari Fujiwara being caught in a sandstorm before, so they were acquaintances.

Kagura is a bound accessory.

Therefore, the outspoken Minamoto no Hiromasa must have made Fujiwara no Yukinari very wary.

Fujiwara Yukinari certainly wanted to keep his dark past a secret.

Even the people running around doing everything were a retainer and an attendant; no one else in the mansion had any idea that their master had lost his beautiful hair.

This shows that Fujiwara Yukinari placed great importance on secrecy.

For this reason, he probably also worried that Minamoto no Hiromasa might accidentally let something slip one day.

"No, I should still remind Boya."

Kousaka Kyosuke secretly thought.

The higher the rank of the noble, the more they care about their reputation.

We should try our best to eliminate shortcomings and dark history.

It's not impossible that they might even resort to silencing witnesses.

Similarly, this also makes those with privileges appear to pay great attention to morality in all aspects.

The most typical counterexample is still Yi Zhou.

The eldest son of the former Kanpaku.

Before his father's death, this Grand Minister had reprimanded the palace servants and maids.

As a result, the backlash began as soon as the father passed away.

Compared to his two uncles, Daojian and Daozhang, Yizhou looked very young.

There was no doubt that the two uncles were watching their nephew make a mistake with smiles on their faces...

Skip over the irrelevant stuff.

Kyosuke Kosaka, along with the hair-eating demon and the newly reunited Kagura and Minamoto no Hiromasa, head to the location of the other victims.

As for Minamoto no Yorihira?

After returning to Kyoto, he left on his own initiative.

Indeed, there is no need to continue participating.

Time flew by and it was already evening.

After finishing his busy work, Kyosuke Kousaka returned to his residence with Kagura.

I was completely exhausted.

When eating or taking a bath, Kyosuke Kosaka did not discuss these private matters with anyone else.

There's no need to elaborate on Fujiwara Yukinari's dark past.

"Lord Kyosuke, are you satisfied with the arrangement of the main hall?" Xiangzi asked with a smile.

Kyosuke Kosaka nodded: "Kagura and I have seen it, and we are both very satisfied."

Kagura looked grateful and said, "Thank you, Kaori."

Today is the third day.

A "revealing" ceremony will be held in the evening.

She and her husband would go to the main hall.

At that time, when we held a banquet to celebrate, all of my and my husband's relatives and friends would come to the gathering.

Only then will the husband formally meet his father, mother, and other relatives for the first time.

Admittedly, Kagura no longer recognizes her former father, mother, and other relatives.

But she absolutely did not want any mishaps to occur at her wedding.

Kagura wants to formally marry Kousaka Kyosuke.

"No need to thank me, I'll trouble you later." Xiangzi's smile remained unchanged.

Seeing Kagura's charming and lovely face these past few days, she knew that Kousaka Kyosuke had made his move.

It depends on the situation; it will probably be the same approach as with Komachi, Moeha, and Megumi.

Thinking of this, Xiangzi felt a sense of joy and comfort for some reason.

"Many of Kyosuke-sama's methods were taught to me..."

Looking back at Kyosuke Kousaka's youthful innocence and comparing it to his current maturity, she couldn't help but feel a sense of感慨 (gan3kai3, mixed feelings).

Congratulations, Kagura!

They offered their congratulations in simple white robes.

No sooner had she started that than Moeyo chimed in, "Be happy, Kagura!"

And so, people began to offer their congratulations one after another.

Congratulations poured in.
