Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Page 410

At the hour of You (5-7 PM), which should have been the time of sunset, a heavy rain began to fall.

The entire convoy had no choice but to stay.

It was nearing dusk, and the sky had already fallen into darkness.

Inside the shrine, however, lights illuminated the scene, creating a clear and bright atmosphere.

After standing outside the shrine all day, Kyosuke Kousaka felt like stretching.

Using their senses, they explored the outskirts centered around the shrine.

He discovered that some more evil demons had arrived.

I plan to take care of it when I come over tomorrow.

That's right, we're getting ready to go back now.

I don't plan to work.

"Spending a day as a staff member at the shrine is enough."

"I definitely have to touch Tsuki's ears and tail afterwards."

It was as if she remembered the way the Moon Goddess blushed and murmured every time her ears were touched.

Kousaka Kyosuke was somewhat excited.

He unconsciously looked at the Moon Chaser, who was sitting by the statue, seemingly oblivious to everyone else.

The Moon God was very perceptive and immediately noticed that Kousaka Kyosuke was looking at him.

She immediately squatted down!

A pair of slightly folded ears suddenly stood up!

His eyes were wide open, as if he were staring at someone.

"I won't give birth to your rabbits!"

The Moon Chaser God seemed to have said something like that.

If there hadn't been so many people, Kyosuke Kousaka would probably have grabbed Tsuki no Kami and kept stroking her ears.

The Moon Goddess has very sensitive ears.

Every time she knew in advance that he would touch her, she deliberately didn't change her pants.

Just thinking about it makes Kyosuke Kousaka want to laugh.

Despite knowing that this might be seen as taking advantage of the Moon Chaser's ignorance, he still did it.

"Shall we go back? It's getting late."

Kousaka Kyosuke sent a message to Chasing the Moon God.

The Moon Chaser shook his head violently, pointing at the people around him.

Kousaka Kyosuke immediately understood and continued to transmit his thoughts.

"A barrier has been set up here, so there shouldn't be any problems."

The Moon Chaser continued to shake his head, his face serious.

"Then I'll save some food for you."

Kyosuke Kosaka didn't force the issue.

A temporary cognitive impairment was imposed on the surroundings.

Then, he remotely transmitted several meat and vegetable buns from the magic space to the Moon Chaser.

Thank you.

The Moon Goddess parted her cherry lips slightly.

You can understand what someone is saying just by looking at their lip movements.

Kyosuke Kosaka smiled and didn't send any more telepathic messages.

Learning from the Moon Goddess's actions, he silently uttered three words—

"—?!"

Get away from me!

I won't help you have rabbits!

Originally feeling warm inside, the Moon Chaser was angrily waving her little fists at Kousaka Kyosuke.

But as Kousaka Kyosuke turned and left, his figure disappeared into the rain...

The pair of once erect ears drooped.

A sense of loss hangs low.

"I hate people who lack perseverance even more."

"The Moon Chaser God said unhappily."

Kyosuke Kousaka's departure was gradually noticed by others.

The people at the shrine were vaguely uneasy, feeling anxious and uncertain.

Some people even started to wonder if Kyosuke Kousaka was a man-eating monster?

It's next to a partitioned area in the shrine.

Use a screen to create a private space.

Kaguya Shinomiya was chatting in hushed tones with her attendant, Ai Hayasaka.

“After I arrived in Kyoto, my parents prepared to find me a husband.”

“That’s normal; it’s better than having your other brothers interfere.”

"I understand that, but I don't know what life will be like after I get to Kyoto..."

“After all, the head of the family is a fifth-rank official, and no one would provoke him,” Hayasaka Ai said.

Having come into this world, Hayasaka Ai is well aware of some of the rules.

At the very least, they understood that the patriarch, with his advanced age and status, was truly an important figure, like "Optimus Prime"!

As long as there is one day, there is absolutely no need to worry about any crisis.

Even the Dai-ji Prefecture specially dispatched several warriors capable of easily killing monsters to protect the group.

"Hmm..." Kaguya Shinomiya nodded gently, then brought up the matter of her eldest and second eldest brothers.

Hayasaka Ai was her intimate maid.

Therefore, there is absolutely no taboo surrounding this matter.

Hayasaka Ai listened quietly, a sigh escaping her lips.

"Lord Yan'an, as a father, must be experiencing very complicated emotions, right?"

once Upon a time.

Hayasaka Ai also felt resentful about Shinomiya Kaguya's disregard for Shinomiya Karian.

Now, she has long since let go of the past.

At the same time, I gradually began to understand Shinomiya Gan'an.

Ultimately, he was always helping out, doing things like serving tea and water.

Hayasaka Ai gradually realized that the "Shinomiya Group" was in a very precarious situation in this world.

When the elderly Shinomiya Yan'an could no longer control her eldest son.

It seems that Kaguya Shinomiya's situation is going to be quite dire.

Fortunately, Kaguya Shinomiya's mother, Takeya Nagare, miraculously woke up and appeared in this world.

This improved Kaguya Shinomiya's situation somewhat...

"As long as you find a suitable husband, then Lord Huangguang will no longer be able to make things difficult for Miss Kaguya."

"...Yes, I understand my father and mother's concern for me."

Kaguya Shinomiya softly agreed with Ai Hayasaka's words.

He was thinking about something more profound.

For example, the matter of my older brothers.

Perhaps no one expected that Kaguya Shinomiya would be the subject of such detailed historical research.

This gave Kaguya Shinomiya a better understanding of the upcoming situation.

"My eldest and second eldest brothers, who didn't have much education, probably don't know how difficult it was to get to Kyoto."

"Even if the order is successfully established, it will only be a subordinate position above the eighth position and a subordinate position below the eighth position."

"Thinking that he could easily inherit his father's position as a deputy commander in the Outer Guard is just wishful thinking."

"How can one achieve hereditary succession to a high-ranking position without accumulating a certain network of connections?"
