Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

That is, Asura became a god of destruction.

Having the divine nature of a god of destruction would affect one's mind, so he made a deal with Yamata no Orochi to borrow Ame no Habakiri to destroy the divine nature.

All they had to give was to pull out the item that truly sealed Orochi's power—the Ame no Habakiri!

Kyosuke Kosaka didn't intend to do much to stop it.

First of all, it's impossible to stop it by force. Okay, once you know that, all you have to do is give up.

Therefore, the safest approach is to follow the original plot and risk your life to contribute at crucial moments, which will yield twice the result with half the effort.

Right now, we still need to carefully collect information and intelligence, even if we're unsure if it matches our understanding.

This facilitates the analysis of the situation and the formulation of better plans.

"I'm tired right now, and my mind isn't very clear, so I might not be able to explain things in detail..."

"It's ok."

"Let's talk about it tomorrow."

"Alright, then you should get some rest. Tomorrow I'll have Kagura listen to your heroic deeds too."

"What heroic deeds? I wouldn't praise myself like that!"

"I called out awkwardly," Minamoto no Hiromasa said.

However, his gaze did not fall on Kyosuke Kousaka, who found it quite amusing.

"I'll take you to your sleeping place now. By the way, are you hungry?"

"I'm not hungry. You don't need to see me off. I'll be staying at the same place you arranged tonight, right?"

"Yes, that place was specially prepared for you, Seimei, and Yaobikuni."

"By the way, what about Yaobikuni?"

"She has successfully purified the Cloud Mirror fragments from the Sea of ​​Immortality and is currently living in the same old place."

"What old place?"

"Isn't that the Seimei Residence where you usually live?"

"...Sometimes I just feel like we can't connect."

"Try to adapt more," Kyosuke Kousaka sincerely advised.

He thought to himself, "Kagura listens to me with great interest, so why is she so difficult to please when it comes to you?"

Of course, Kyosuke Kosaka was also aware that he had spoken too casually.

But that's how he talks to people he knows.

If it were someone else? That would definitely be a very proper social expression.

"..."

Minamoto no Hiromasa remained silent, almost unable to say anything.

Finally, he turned around and left.

Minamoto no Hiromasa didn't really want Kousaka Kyosuke to have a frivolous personality.

However, having long realized that his younger sister Kagura seemed to really like Kousaka Kyosuke's personality, Minamoto no Hiromasa didn't interfere too much.

Being too serious is indeed not good.

Thinking of his younger sister Kagura, Minamoto no Hiromasa felt even more convinced of what Kousaka Kyosuke had just said.

No matter how the future unfolds, there's nothing wrong with being happy all the time.

Get it!

Kyosuke Kosaka silently made a successful move.

Minamoto no Hiromasa can be considered a rather difficult brother-in-law to deal with.

Although he is rather impatient in personality, fortunately he is quite reasonable in his thinking.

If I think it's in my sister's best interest, I'll agree without hesitation.

She also cares a lot about her brother-in-law.

The thought of this made Kyosuke Kousaka feel rather awkward.

Being aged by an actual age... cough, he's forever 18, or maybe I shouldn't think about anything else.

Let's analyze the future situation carefully now.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, both Seimei and Minamoto no Yorimitsu will make significant moves upon their return.

Seimei will likely gather more yokai he knows, as well as Onmyoji he knows who do not belong to the three major clans, to prepare for battle.

Needless to say, Minamoto no Yorimitsu was also involved!

Kousaka Kyosuke didn't even need to guess to know that the situation in Kyoto would change drastically after Minamoto no Yorimitsu returned.

"The fact that samurai were being transferred from various provinces had already alerted the local nobles. If even greater changes are made, many local nobles might 'flee' to Kyoto..."

Thinking about all this gave Kousaka Kyosuke a headache.

But upon closer reflection, he immediately realized that he was being overly anxious.

Kousaka Kyosuke could easily think of something like this, but other superiors wouldn't?

Therefore, it is estimated that some decrees will soon be issued prohibiting local nobles from coming to Kyoto.

This is strikingly similar to certain historical fragments.

that's true.

History always repeats itself.

After rubbing his temples, Kyosuke Kousaka decided to go for a walk outside.

He didn't go back tonight.

While on the road, he used magic to send messages to his partner at home, so that they didn't have to wait for him to return.

Since Minamoto no Hiromasa and the Minamoto army were staying overnight here, and he had only entertained them before returning to Kyoto, it was clear that he did not take them seriously.

Furthermore, Seimei, Minamoto no Yorimitsu, and others might also come, so he would have to stay even more.

It is still very necessary to communicate with these two people.

"Hey, Master Kyousuke..."

A voice pulled Kousaka Kyosuke back to his senses.

He turned his head and saw a short-haired girl.

To describe it more accurately.

She is a girl with light golden eyes, short, melancholic blue hair, and a beauty mark under her left eye.

She is Yamada Ryo.

She is a potential partner for Kyosuke Kousaka, or rather, a potential lover.

At least after they established their relationship, Kyosuke Kosaka could clearly sense a subtle change in Ryo Yamada's attitude towards him.

He was beginning to realize that Yamada Ryo was a very delicate girl.

Therefore, they are very careful in their attitude.

"Lord Kyosuke, it's rare to find someone like this." Yamada Ryo said again.

Kyosuke Kosaka was quite annoyed: "Don't make it sound like I've been abandoned. I just finished dealing with something."

"Then...should I leave? It's rare for me to take a walk alone."

"There's no need to emphasize that it's just me. Besides, I don't need this kind of experience."

"I think so too. Then I'll keep Kyosuke company."

Yamada Ryo placed his hands in front of him, looking confident.

Kyosuke Kosaka's lips twitched slightly, thinking to himself, "Ryo, your confidence is overflowing..."

However, despite having interacted with him several times, he never once criticized Yamada Ryo's inexplicable self-confidence.

Because he could sense that Yamada Ryo was always telling him the truth.

Then there's no point in complaining.

all in all.

The two then began to stroll along the flat street.

Incidentally, the location where Yamada Ryo lives, that is, the residence of the band members, is within the territory of Kousaka Kyosuke's mansion.

The outer perimeter is guarded day and night, but there are few guards inside.

Because it has a powerful protective barrier inside, it does not need guards.

That's why no one noticed Yamada Ryo leaving so late at night.

The same applies to Kyosuke Kousaka.
