Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Day 467 of crossing

By 7:00 AM, Kyosuke Kosaka was already instructing the band on the use of their instruments.

This includes the members of Hoshika's team, Kotobuki, and Kinnara's students.

Kagura, Sushou, Miku, and Kinara watched from the sidelines, joining in the fun.

Nino and Miharu Mafuyu, who came specifically yesterday, seemed to prefer work, and since Kyosuke Kousaka was surrounded by many people, they didn't come.

Meanwhile, Yukino, Yuigahama Yui, Horikita Suzune, and others continued to do things according to Su Yi's arrangements, just like before, and each of them lived a very fulfilling life.

"Kyosuke, your teaching method is a bit strange. Some steps seem unnecessary..."

Kinnara, who had been watching the whole time, seized the opportunity to say something.

Kyosuke Kosaka replied, "Because playing with spiritual power will produce a stronger effect, I plan to make a special instrument for everyone to use. I will specially store spiritual power in this instrument so that everyone can activate it."

Miku looked thoughtful.

"Does Kyosuke-sama feel that ordinary music is not enough to soothe everyone's hearts, so he has decided to strengthen this aspect?"

Kousaka Kyosuke: "Yes."

Kinnara seemed a little displeased: "Kyosuke, this method is a bit domineering."

"To put it bluntly, call it 'The Demonic Path' if you want, I accept criticism—but I think that ordinary music will likely not be enough in the future, and I don't want you to push yourself too hard, you know what I mean?"

Kyosuke Kosaka was smiling, but he spoke calmly, giving off a strong and powerful feeling.

Kinnara seemed to see Kousaka Kyosuke's figure growing larger at an exaggerated speed, and he became somewhat timid, even shrinking his neck a little.

"I wouldn't push myself too hard..."

Kagura spoke up: "Kinnara can't stand seeing people suffer, so he'll definitely force himself."

Su Chang nodded her head in agreement.

"Kinnara, let's follow Kyosuke-sama's method. You need to use your power in the right place."

Su Chang understands everything!

She knew what Kyosuke Kousaka was talking about.

It is said that when war is about to break out in the future, if Kinnara cannot bear to see everyone suffering too much, he will play music to appease them, which will definitely consume a lot of his strength.

"So that means there will be new musical instruments? And they'll be different from ordinary instruments."

Yamada Ryo's eyes lit up.

Whenever the topic turns to musical instruments or anything related to them, this seemingly aloof girl becomes incredibly excited.

In fact, it wasn't just Yamada Ryo; Hoshika, PA-san, Nijika, Kita Ikuyo, Pochi-chan, and others also expressed interest and curiosity.

After all, the musical instruments they used were all made by Kyosuke Kousaka, so they naturally knew just how good Kyosuke Kousaka's instrument-making skills were.

Those who were not yet familiar with Kyosuke Kosaka, such as Kotobuki, Ritsu Tainaka, and Akari Takamatsu, adopted a wait-and-see attitude.

They were still not quite sure what Kousaka Kyosuke was talking about.

Having been tempered by the modern world and society, Toyokawa Shoko was very perceptive and vaguely sensed something.

"Is ordinary music not enough to soothe everyone's hearts? Should Lord Kinnara's power be used in a more appropriate way?"

As he carefully considered the meaning behind the words, Toyokawa Shoko was taken aback.

For some reason, she recalled the intense shock that had occurred to the manor a few months earlier.

At that time, tens of thousands of sea monsters attacked, and even Kyoto was invaded... Could it be that an even greater crisis is about to strike?

Thinking about how the manor had suddenly started expanding its entertainment offerings and even the band, Toyokawa Shoko realized that she might have guessed the truth.

When she saw that Kousaka Kyosuke, Kinara and others were communicating without any attempt to hide their feelings, she felt a strange mix of emotions.

On stage, Kyosuke Kosaka began explaining the specific uses of his specially made musical instrument.

When he finished speaking, everyone started asking questions with great interest.

Xingge: "Does it have a speakerphone function?"

Kyosuke Kosaka: "Yes, actually, if you want, I can make guitars specifically for you."

Ryo Yamada: "I feel like I could make a tool that can amplify the sound of all musical instruments."

Kyosuke Kosaka: "Maintaining the original sound quality while doubling the sound amplitude is not an easy task, so don't make it sound so easy."

Nijika: "Ryo, really... don't make things difficult for Kyosuke-sama."

Kita Ikuyo: "The musical instrument is quite valuable."

Kyosuke Kosaka: "Isn't it people using it? I think people are more precious. But you're getting a bit off-topic."

Kita Ikuyo: "I'm sorry..."

Kyosuke Kosaka: "There's no need for an apology. Does anyone have anything to say?"

Kousaka Kyosuke then looked at the students Kotobuki and Kinnara had recruited. These girls were not familiar with him and would eventually be quite reserved.

Kotobuki looked surprised: "Kyosuke-sama, we have that too?"

Kyosuke Kousaka rubbed his temples: "There will always be outstanding people, so let's strive to become even more outstanding."

Su Chang: "Lord Kyosuke is so handsome!"

Kyosuke Kosaka: "Now is not the time to praise me. What do you think, Ritsu Naka?

Ritsu Tainaka: "Eh...can I hypnotize you?"

Kyosuke Kosaka: "It depends on how you use it, but if you want to hypnotize someone by playing drums, you'll probably need a very high level of skill. I can show you once I've made it."

Upon hearing this, Ritsu Tainaka's eyes lit up as well.

"Such an amazing instrument! That's incredible!"

PA-san: "If used properly, wouldn't it become a terrifying weapon?"

Kyosuke Kosaka: "That's true, it depends on how the user uses it. By the way, the lead singer will also have amplification equipment, so there's no need to worry."

"I……"

When Takamatsu Akari saw Kousaka Kyosuke looking at her, she immediately understood that Kousaka Kyosuke was talking to her.

But what right does she have to accept these things?

She ruined the performance yesterday, and in the end, this noble gentleman in front of her had to clean up the mess.

Speaking of yesterday, that music was truly beautiful.

Kyosuke Kosaka: "Your voice is very beautiful. Please let everyone enjoy it by singing."

"...Yes, Kyosuke-sama."

Tall lights should be used to maximize sound response.

Kyosuke Kosaka chuckled. "Very good."

As he spoke, he looked at the other girls who hadn't spoken yet and who didn't know if they had any questions.

Kotobuki saw all of this.

"Lord Kyosuke is so gentle... considerate. He's a really good man."

Suddenly, Kotobuki, whose expression had been calm, blushed slightly and felt her heart beating faster.

What am I thinking?

Time flies, and it was noon in the blink of an eye.

Kyosuke Kosaka discovers that the invitation from Kyoto Port is for a banquet related to Minamoto no Yoritsugu, and the invitation casually mentions something about Kotobuki...

"This is bad. Things are definitely not going to be that simple."

Kyosuke Kosaka held the invitation in his hand and couldn't help but let out a soft sigh.

He was too careless before.

What should we do now? He's still busy with the cultural and spiritual development of the manor. Never mind, let's deal with Kotobuki's matter first. This time, he'll be more careful!

394. Encountering Minamoto no Yorimitsu / Shuten-dōji and Ibaraki-dōji's Reflections / Something's Not Right

In the afternoon, Kyosuke Kosaka took Kagura and Kotobuki with him to Kyoto Port.

Before that, he had only said a few words to Kotobuki's father, and then he took Kotobuki and didn't return for several days.

It looked very strange to other people.

Originally, Kyosuke Kosaka was supposed to take Kotobuki back to Kyoto Port after only one day.

However, with an unexpected event occurring in the snowy region, everything became complicated.

In the end, Kyosuke Kousaka was too exhausted to care about Kotobuki, and thought it wouldn't hurt to let her wander around the manor.

After all, I had promised Kotobuki that I would take her to the snowy region, but I broke my promise, so I definitely have to make amends.

Of course, Kyosuke Kosaka also overlooked some rather troublesome issues.
