Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Page 256

Wearing Su Chang on her back, Yang Nai was unable to make a move.

Kyosuke Kousaka acted swiftly, killing the evil monsters with a series of spiritual strikes.

The monster died before it even saw Kousaka Kyosuke make a move.

Having witnessed all of this, or rather, having only caught a fleeting glimpse, Haruno gained a profound understanding of Kyosuke Kousaka.

At least it made it clear that Kousaka Kyosuke himself was much more powerful than the Onmyoji in Heijō-kyō.

"Do people live on five main roads?"

"Yes, Lord Kyosuke."

"Give it to me."

Kyosuke Kousaka, who had already obtained Hinano's blood, felt a slight chill in his heart.

As soon as he and Su Chang sneaked into Heijo-kyo, he felt a great deal of pressure.

That power, akin to Shinto, Buddhism, and other curses, enveloped Heijō-kyō like a giant, intricately woven net.

When Kousaka Kyosuke faced him, he felt a sense of suffocation.

He finally realized that Emperor Kanmu still had so many people supporting him when he moved!

This barrier is practically a curse.

If you are not careful when casting spells, it may cause a backlash!

The sheer number of people building Buddhist temples and shrines has turned Heijō-kyō into a "forbidden zone for demons"!

Even Kyosuke Kousaka had to bow his head and say:

I admire you.

“Something’s a bit strange…” Su Chang muttered.

She felt very uncomfortable.

It's as if something dirty is blocking my way.

Even the flow of internal energy within the body slowed down.

"We've found him; he should be on the Eighth Road."

Kyosuke Kousaka released Hino's hand and said.

“Then let’s continue!” said Su Chang, who was still carrying Yang Nai on her back.

She wasn't planning on doing anything this time.

She was simply helping her husband rescue his friend's parents.

"go!"

Kyosuke Kosaka's speech remained concise.

He was secretly relieved to find that the two people connected to Yang Nai by blood had stable auras.

They moved forward at an even faster speed.

He knows it.

Yukinoshita, my partner, is gentle, but also fragile.

It's too easy for them to become withdrawn!

These days are the peak of Kyosuke Kousaka and Yukinoshita's passionate romance.

When faced with what happened under the snow, Kyosuke Kosaka's emotions were higher than usual.

Although I know this is wrong.

But I still get excited whenever I think about my sweet moments with Yukino.

Poverty alleviation program... no, that's not the time to think about that.

Look for signs of kinship in other partners to see if you can find any.

—This time, Kyosuke Kousaka wants to solve the problem once and for all.

He didn't believe that a place as terrible as Heijō-kyō could exist again.

Therefore, since no relatives of the partners were found this time, it seems there are none left...

"There really is!"

Kousaka Kyosuke's pupils narrowed.

He secretly and rapidly channeled his spiritual energy to cast spells, searching through hair and blood, and he actually found it!

One, two, three, four...

Kousaka Kyosuke is particularly weak.

Looks like today is going to be tiring.

"Father, mother."

Not long after, Yang Nai found her parents in a stinking, crowded place.

"Yang No?"

A middle-aged father and a middle-aged woman.

Kyosuke Kosaka could tell that both of them had extraordinary looks and demeanor.

But clothes make the man and a saddle makes the horse.

Wearing a drab gray linen outfit and messy hair, even the most beautiful woman would be humbled.

By the way.

Before arriving in Heijō-kyō, Kōsaka Kyōsuke and Susō had also disguised themselves.

At least they dress like ordinary people.

Therefore, it is not very conspicuous in similar refugee camps.

"Haha, it's you—"

Kyosuke Kousaka, who was deducing the locations of the other people, looked up and his eyes flashed.

A ruggedly dressed, bearded man walking towards his father and mother in the snow suddenly froze.

"Let's go."

Su Chang, realizing that it was her husband who was casting the spell, spoke to Yang Nai and her parents.

The group immediately understood and followed Su Chang.

Soon, a group of people gathered in a secluded alley.

Ignoring the unpleasant stench around them, Kousaka Kyosuke said to Su Chang:

"You take the men out of the city first, I'll go find the others."

Su Chang, who had assumed they were leaving, was taken aback: "Is there anyone else?"

"When I was bored, I looked around for other people as well and found that there seemed to be quite a few people here who were related to them."

"Then be careful."

Su Chang did not try to persuade Kousaka Kyosuke again.

It would be easier for her to search for someone alone, as she needed to take care of her companion's family.

The two sides then split up.

Su Chang led people to a secluded, steep high wall, very close to the outside of the city.

A cold wind was blowing.

Changwu saw his wife forcefully return the clean, thick silk cloth, and then he saw his wife looking at him.

After thinking about it, he no longer refused and covered his body with it.

At this time, his wife also had the same thick silk cloth as him, which she covered herself with to keep warm.

Today's weather is cloudy with no sun.

It's cold.

It was early autumn, but it was just as cold as winter without snow.

When he thinks of "snow", Shogo thinks of his daughter.

I started to feel anxious again.

Changwu tried his best not to delve into it, lest it affect his emotions and cause internal strife.

Now, he hesitates whether or not to go up and talk to the tea-haired girl who rescued them, and thank her.

Noticing his wife's suggestive look, he decided to remain silent.

They cautiously scanned their surroundings, fearing that some monster might come to eat them.
