Menreiki answered slowly.
Kousaka Kyosuke thought for a moment, then asked, "What kind of combination is it?"
"It's like the color of paint mixed together, but it looks surprisingly good. I can try to mix it and show it to you."
"No need for that. I have a general idea of what color it will be. I'd rather have time to make you some jewelry and decorative items in that regard."
"Don't change the subject, at least reveal a little bit."
Menreiki asked Kousaka Kyosuke with a serious expression.
She was very worried, but she also knew that Kyosuke Kousaka probably didn't intend to tell anyone else.
Suspecting there was great danger, she felt it was necessary to at least have some understanding of the situation, so that if Kyosuke Kousaka encountered a similar situation in the future, no one would be at a loss as to how to deal with it.
"I think I traveled through time and space, became an emperor, and was just about to unify other countries when I was disturbed by a group of annoying people. That's roughly what happened."
When Kousaka Kyosuke saw that Reiki's handsome face was almost touching his own, he could only helplessly offer a simple explanation.
Menreiki looked slightly surprised upon hearing this explanation: "What a complicated situation."
I believe it.
Then, Menreiki realized that it was indeed difficult to explain in detail.
"I also find it complicated, so I'm too lazy to explain it and just add to everyone's troubles." Kousaka Kyosuke laughed, then suddenly changed his mind, "How about the others?"
This time, it was assumed that Kyosuke Kousaka could change the subject, and Menreiki didn't press the matter further.
"As you know, everyone is very busy. Besides, you emphasized before you took a break that you didn't need anyone to accompany you. So now it's just me and Lianhua, two people with nothing to do, who have come to keep you company."
"I can still catch my breath for a while now. I wonder how things are in Kyoto? Oh right, I'll write a letter first, so I don't feel sleepy again after I finish my porridge..."
When Kyoto was mentioned, Kousaka Kyosuke remembered that he also needed to reassure his other spouses in Kyoto, so he calmed himself down and started writing letters.
Seeing this, Menreiki stopped talking to Kousaka Kyosuke and naturally focused her gaze on the letter he had written.
Kousaka Kyosuke noticed this scene and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but his thoughts immediately returned to the matter he was currently facing.
"The evil gods have been corrupted by my Blood Binding Technique, and it won't be long before they recover. It will take them quite a while to return and deal with me again. Orochi is probably busy creating a new world and doesn't have time to deal with anyone else."
"The false god-king Tsukuyomi is probably very troubled by the return of the execution god Susanoo and the awakening of the true god-king Amaterasu. He is obsessed with becoming the leader of the divine realm and may cause trouble. We need to be careful about that."
"The contractual relationship between the Red Spider Lily and Kinnara is very stable, so there shouldn't be any major problems. The Underworld will most likely be rebuilt just like in the original story."
"Five colors... Time travel is something I don't need to think about for now, but I never imagined I would become the protagonist one day."
When recalling the last events, Kyosuke Kousaka was speechless.
After hearing the five colors mentioned by the spirit, he was completely certain that he might have been affected by the "Return to the Immortal Dream" from the world of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy".
The so-called "returning soul to the immortal dream".
That is a special time-traveling magic unique to the descendants of Nuwa.
Kyosuke Kosaka strongly suspects that it was Nuwa who cast the spell.
He is very averse to this kind of thing.
Unfortunately, faced with absolute power, Kyosuke Kousaka was truly helpless.
He can only act as he sees things and takes things one step at a time.
In the dream, the world's living environment was extremely harsh, and humans were still the weakest creatures. Then there was a large group of people similar to the Celestial Dragons who lorded it over humans. On one occasion, they even "accidentally" wiped out a human village right in front of Kyosuke Kousaka...
Then, Kyosuke Kousaka, who had been trying to play it safe, couldn't take it anymore and started fighting. Sigh.
Suddenly, the thought of waking up to find himself facing such an apocalyptic world made Kyosuke Kosaka feel increasingly exhausted.
He wanted to complain.
But it's best not to talk about things that put too much pressure on you.
Otherwise, the already heavy atmosphere would only become more oppressive, which is not what he wants.
Soon after, Lianhua brought over some meat porridge, which Kousaka Kyosuke drank before going back to sleep...
Day 489 of crossing
After a quick breakfast, Kyosuke Kosaka went back to sleep.
However, he did not expect that he had just fallen asleep when two groups of guests arrived at the manor.
A batch, from the Moon Palace.
A batch, from the Sea of Immortality.
Yes, reinforcements for Princess Kaguya and Princess Senhime have also arrived!
Since both of them were still guarding important areas, they did not come in person, but instead sent a group of elites to provide support.
"Naiko, I didn't expect you to come too."
Su Chang greeted the familiar mermaid Cai Zi happily.
Naoko said apologetically, "We originally wanted to come quickly, but due to the judgment of the evil god that day, much of the seawater was polluted, so Lady Senhime has to deal with this matter first..."
"It's nothing, it's nothing," Su Chang hurriedly said. "At this time, everyone is too busy to care about anything else. We are already very grateful that you were able to come."
Cai Zi said, "You're too kind... Speaking of which, we also brought some fish fry that are relatively easy to raise and very filling. Would you like them?"
"Eh?"
Su Chang froze, her thoughts somewhat scattered.
As a mermaid, it's not unusual for Naoko to eat fish, but if she raises fish to eat... something just doesn't feel right.
No, it's not exactly wrong either.
It's the same principle as raising chickens on a farm; there's no need for her to make a fuss about it.
It seems she is still not knowledgeable enough.
Compared to Su Chang and Cai Zi, their interaction was relatively pleasant.
The support personnel from the Moon Palace were rather reserved, which made Fujiwara no Koremasa, who had previously hosted them, quite embarrassed...
How is Kyosuke?
Princess Goldfish, who had temporarily returned from the underworld, asked Shiranui, who was currently taking care of Kyosuke Kousaka, with concern.
Shiranui said softly, "He's fine, sleeping soundly, and I can hear his even breathing. Should we go check on him? He won't wake up so easily."
"No, thank you... Please give this to Kyosuke, Shiranui-neechan. It's a reward from Lord Enma. She said Kyosuke will need it."
"I understand, but... are you just leaving like this? Shouldn't you take some more food with you?"
"Well, that's fine."
Princess Goldfish swallowed unconsciously.
Her mind reflexively flashed through the various delicious sweets Nino made; the delicate flavors, more refined than any food she had ever tasted before, were truly unforgettable.
Eat something, and working with everyone else will make it less tiring.
"When Kyosuke woke up, he ate a lot of sweet and greasy food. He said that the satisfaction brought by his appetite was very fulfilling."
“Then I want the same menu as him.”
Princess Goldfish almost had to cover her stomach, which was about to start "groaning".
She wasn't hungry, but the thought of those delicious foods made her feel physically hungry!
"It's a pity that Princess Kaguya didn't come. I wonder if she has dumplings to eat?" Princess Goldfish said with a regretful expression.
Shiranui, who was about to tell Nino, stopped in her tracks: "Why don't I go and bring her some food? I haven't seen her in a long time."
"This won't do. It's too dangerous outside. Even a strong youkai like you, Shiranui-neechan, would be in danger!"
"I want to check on Princess Kaguya's condition."
"Don't worry, Kyosuke's contract is the strongest protection! He said that his contract is not just a bond, but also mutual support... When we are in real danger, the contract will unleash its strongest power, just like that trial..."
Princess Goldfish gave a vivid example with a subtle expression.
On the day of the trial, Kyosuke Kousaka borrowed all of everyone's power. At that moment, Princess Goldfish was also able to feel how powerful Kyosuke Kousaka was through the intimate connection of the contract.
No wonder she values him so much~
Two quarters of an hour later.
Princess Goldfish returned to the underworld with hot food to continue helping rebuild the Netherworld.
Shiranui then took the reward that Enma had mentioned and went to the room where Kousaka Kyosuke was resting.
Unexpectedly, Kyosuke Kosaka had already woken up.
Shiranui originally thought that Kousaka Kyosuke would not wake up until after dinner.
"Lord Kyosuke, this is a reward from Lord Enma."
Shiranui met Kousaka Kyosuke's burning gaze into her eyes and immediately spoke.
For some reason, being met with that gaze... made her feel weak all over, and she just wanted to escape.
“I feel like this would be perfect for me,” Kousaka Kyosuke said with a smile, taking a box from Shiranui. “As the ruler of the underworld, Lord Enma is knowledgeable and experienced, and his judgment is certainly very sharp.”
Upon opening the box, Kyosuke Kosaka stared in surprise at the fist-sized, round crystal that resembled a glass bead.
