Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Well, he only did it because of Kagura and Yamausagi.

419. Komachi / Preparations Before the Trial / Rabbits and Rabbits / Migration

Having obtained information about the mutated sweet potatoes and potatoes from the Inari deity, Kyosuke Kousaka, after sending the others back, went straight to find Michitsuna Fujiwara.

"At the cost of consuming the vitality of the land?"

Fujiwara Michitsuna calmly examined the two seemingly ordinary crops in his hands.

Both crops seemed to be missing a small section, but that didn't matter; he had complete trust in the person in front of him.

Kyosuke Kosaka said, "Anyway, I'm handing the things over to you. How you use them is up to you."

"You should consult with Lord Lai Guang."

"Shouldn't you be informed about something like this?"

"I think you just want to dump all the trouble on us."

"Isn't this normal? You guys are much better at dealing with those pointless attacks than I am."

"That's true. Then, be more careful in your future actions."

With a slight smile and a complaint, Fujiwara no Michitsuna said to Kousaka Kyosuke.

He understands.

The chances of Kousaka Kyosuke, Kagura, Seimei, and the others succeeding in their mission to fight Yamata no Orochi are slim, and they are likely to die.

Gods are beings that no one can defy.

As the oldest evil god in the world, Yamata no Orochi is naturally unmatched by any other being.

However, if they cannot survive without fighting the Yamata no Orochi, what else can they do?

"decide as things go."

Kousaka Kyosuke replied to Fujiwara Michitsuna, at a time when he couldn't bring himself to make any jokes.

They're treating this meeting as their final farewell.

That's pretty much the case.

Even Kyosuke Kosaka isn't sure if he'll be able to return unscathed from this trip.

Will they be able to return in more complete form?

Well, he wasn't entirely sure either.

Farewell to Fujiwara no Michitsuna.

Kyosuke Kosaka returned to his residence, ready to comfort his partners.

"Kyosuke-sama!"

The girl with small tiger teeth and a little ahoge on her head suddenly hugged Kousaka Kyosuke.

It's Komachi.

I haven't received such a warm welcome in a long time.

If I lived in the original old house, I would receive such a welcome every day. I really miss it.

"You waited for me all this way?" Kousaka Kyosuke stroked Komachi's short, shoulder-length hair, his face full of affection.

"Yes, Kyosuke-sama, so that you can feel truly valued~"

Komachi, who was clinging tightly to Kousaka Kyosuke, replied in her usual slightly sharp yet sweetly childlike voice.

Kyosuke Kosaka quickly half-lifted her up, preparing to move her to a quieter place to talk.

This area is located on the way to the sleeping quarters, and other servants may pass by. It wouldn't be good if they saw the two of them being so affectionate.

"Ah... Kyosuke-sama, now?"

Komachi let out an alluring low moan, her cheeks flushed with shyness.

Kyosuke Kosaka was speechless. He knew perfectly well that Komachi understood him and wouldn't do anything reckless. He almost wanted to tap Komachi on the head, but he held back in the end.

"How could that be? I just wanted to have a private chat with you first."

"But Lady Xiangzi and the others are still waiting for Lord Kyosuke."

"I'll just chat with you for a little while because I'm a bit worried about you, Komachi."

"Kyosuke-sama, you don't need to worry about Komachi so much. Komachi is very strong!" Komachi said immediately.

After thinking for a moment, Kousaka Kyosuke said, "Then you will comfort me?"

"Hmm, this is an option that will earn Komachi points, so there's no reason for Komachi to refuse! How about Kyosuke-sama lying on Komachi's lap? Kyosuke-sama, you like that, don't you?"

"I didn't really like it that much..."

Kyosuke Kosaka's gaze reflexively fell on Komachi's front.

Komachi, seemingly having anticipated this, confidently leaned forward, as if showing off something.

"Kyosuke-sama, Komachi has really grown up!"

"Yeah yeah."

Kyosuke Kosaka immediately looked away.

Strange words like "three years," "death penalty," and "execution" kept flashing through my mind.

He probably shouldn't be paying too much attention to certain things.

"Lord Kyosuke, please look directly at Komachi!"

"I probably can't do what you're saying, since I'm about to lie down."

"Then look up and you will see a beautiful view."

Komachi's words became increasingly bold, and her eyes grew more and more intense.

Kyosuke Kousaka, who vaguely sensed something, was already sweating profusely—cold sweat.

Slowly and carefully, she lay down on Komachi's soft, white thighs, using them as a pillow, and then closed her eyes.

serene.

Yes, act calmly.

“…Kyosuke-sama.” A pitiful voice, as if about to burst into tears, rang out softly.

Kyosuke Kosaka had no choice but to open his eyes, only to find that the gloomy, deep sky was mostly obscured.

The world is so beautiful.

This is bad! Are middle school students these days really that good?!

No, no, Komachi is already a high school student. She was very naive back then, and she still is now; she's quite mature.

It turns out that so much time has passed.

Kyosuke Kosaka was surprisingly melancholic.

"Komachi, after I defeat Orochi this time, I will be with you forever."

"...Then, Kyosuke-sama, you must do your best for me!"

"Yes, you didn't hear me say 'repel' him. That's because I'm aware of my limitations; I know I can't defeat him, just holding him back is already a stretch."

Kyosuke Kosaka explained patiently and in detail.

He believes that Komachi has already cried, but she just doesn't look like she is.

Other couples are more or less the same.

The enemy is too strong, and you have to take the initiative to face him, which inevitably makes people very worried.

"Lord Kyosuke, you must come back! Komachi will grant you anything you desire!"

"Now I'm increasingly eager to complete the mission right now."

"Mmm, mmm! Anything is fine! Like this... like that..."

Komachi spoke in a softer voice.

As Kousaka Kyosuke listened, he almost blushed for Komachi.

So many styles!

cos? Bubble 〇?

Where did this knowledge come from?

"Alright, let's go back." Kousaka Kyosuke tilted his head slightly before starting to sit up.

The gloomy sky was finally visible in its entirety.

Dark, chilling, and indescribably terrifying, like thick, inky clouds that filled the entire sky.

Just looking at it makes one feel physically uncomfortable.
