Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Page 1491

As the name suggests, the Moon Sea possesses the power of the moon, which naturally includes the lunar energy that the Moon Chaser absorbs from the moon through his talent.

"Looks like this guy is still planning to play dirty tricks."

Kousaka Kyosuke secretly thought.

Is he angry? He is very angry.

The problem is that we can't go and settle scores with Tsukuyomi right now, because it's inefficient. It's better to wait until we actually see him before taking action.

Considering that he is actually the God of Lies, and his power in illusion might even surpass that of Indra, it is estimated that his appearance might be that of a fake. Therefore, Kyosuke Kousaka can only secretly find the real one before taking any action.

Regardless, Tsukuyomi ultimately possesses the added power of divine authority, so she could indeed escape if she wanted to. Given the integrity of this god, she might actually do it.

Well, anyway, let's try to settle the score with him first.

—Kousaka Kyosuke, who originally wanted to recuperate, quickly made up his mind.

This is not the time to back down.

If you feel offended, you'll fight back and take action, even against the god-king of Takamagahara!

"...Impurities? What do you mean?"

Looking puzzled, the Moon Chaser hurriedly asked.

She wanted to use this power to increase food production even further, so how could she just say she wouldn't use it?

That would be a waste.

Kyosuke Kosaka replied, "The moon in the sky isn't just under the jurisdiction of the Moon Palace. And the evil god openly told me before that he had people from Takamagahara. You must have heard that, right?"

What is a "pig teammate"?

These evil gods are a prime example of something extremely powerful.

They could have dealt with the enemy much more cleverly, but they just didn't!

Kyosuke Kousaka really likes enemies with such high intelligence.

"Could it be that they're talking about—"

The Moon Chaser reacted extremely quickly, immediately thinking of the most famous deity related to the moon.

Kyosuke Kosaka gave a soft hum: "I already knew, but I figured there was no point in telling everyone, so I kept it a secret. But Tsukuyomi is getting more and more unruly these days..."

Perhaps sensing that he posed a significant threat, they prepared to take action.

The saying goes, "The first to strike wins."

There's some truth to that, but Kyosuke Kousaka never expected that he would become the target of others' actions.

To be precise, he is now a victim.

"It was actually... him." The Moon Chaser was extremely surprised and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Kousaka Kyosuke gently flicked the light pink rabbit ears of the Moon Goddess.

"—Eeya!"

The Moon Goddess cried out in surprise and instinctively stepped back. When she came to her senses, she glared hatefully at Kousaka Kyosuke.

Kyosuke Kosaka was quite surprised to see that Tsukuyomi did not appear to be in a particularly "disheveled" state.

It seems that the resistance has increased.

"In short, you must listen to me. Now, I will remove the impurities from your body's lunar energy, and after that, you must not absorb any more lunar power."

"What about Princess Kaguya?"

"Don't worry, I've been protecting her the whole time. It's so dangerous over there, how could I not be careful?"

Kousaka Kyousuke smiled at Chasing the Moon God.

Princess Kaguya is the child of the moon, and her will is sufficient to represent the moon itself, giving her the ability to cope with dangers in the moon palace.

Furthermore, given that her existence is related to Ara's power, Kousaka Kyosuke believed that Ara would take notice. More importantly, Kousaka Kyosuke himself also had a backup plan...

It would be very unwise of Tsukuyomi to act rashly again.

"It's unnecessary to anger me for now, and it would also alarm other gods... Tsukuyomi probably doesn't have complete control over everything in Takamagahara."

Kyosuke Kosaka couldn't help but think of the high priest of the Snow Mountain Clan, the god of thought in Takamagahara.

This deity is clearly not of the same ilk as Tsukuyomi.

Upon careful analysis, Takamagahara has always belonged to the true God-King Amaterasu, not to the pseudo-God-King Tsukuyomi.

"Then I..."

"Then you should get some rest like me~"

Kousaka Kyosuke chuckled and gently embraced Tsuki-no-Kami as they sat on a tatami mat to the side.

The Moon Goddess seemed quite used to Kousaka Kyosuke's affectionate gestures, and her expression showed no reluctance, only a furrowed brow in deep thought.

Seeing this, Kyosuke Kosaka had no choice but to offer a reminder.

"You've forgotten, you are my shikigami."

"No, you're injured now, I'm not going to cause you any more trouble!"

"There is more than one way to borrow my strength; you can also borrow my wisdom."

wisdom?

Chasing Moon God turned his head to look at Kousaka Kyosuke, speechless.

Sorry, she really couldn't figure out what kind of wisdom this man possessed.

"Don't be so rude as to wear your feelings on your sleeve," Kousaka Kyosuke remarked. Then, with a thought, he transmitted some of his knowledge about cultivation related to the Five Elements to the mind of the Moon Chaser.

The Moon Chaser was stunned: "This is..."

"The power of Yin and Yang encompasses everything, but unfortunately, comprehending it is extremely difficult. The Five Elements also encompass everything, and I have many insights into this. Try to study the sections on 'absorption' within them; this will prevent the problems you encountered before."

Kyosuke Kosaka patiently explained to Tsuki-no-Kami.

From the moment he first saw the Moon Chaser, Kyosuke Kousaka guessed that Tsukuyomi must have been manipulated during the process of the moon sending its light down to the human world.

But actually, it doesn't matter how you manipulate things, as long as you're strong enough, there won't be any problems.

To strike iron, you have to be tough yourself.

That's just how it is.

"……Thanks."

"That's unnecessary."

Kousaka Kyosuke touched the hair of the Moon Goddess, then stood up to leave.

The Moon Goddess quickly grabbed him: "Wait a minute! I have some..."

"No need, you go ahead and do your own thing," Kyosuke Kousaka said considerately.

He knew that the Moon Chaser God really enjoyed taking on the role of a deity.

Therefore, he did not want to disturb the Moon Chaser.

While it's true that he jokingly adopted a cool name in the past, it doesn't mean he lived that way.

"Who isn't the protagonist of their own life? I can't stop the people around me from doing what they love."

Kosaka Kyo said heartily.

“No,” Tsukuyomi gently tugged at Kousaka Kyosuke again, “I’ve prepared some special things for you here.”

Kyosuke Kosaka hesitated for a moment: "...That's really thoughtful."

"Don't you like it?"

"No, I just regret not coming sooner."

"……snort."

With her mind in turmoil, Tsukuyomi glanced at Kyosuke Kousaka, then quickly reached for the drink that had been prepared not long ago.

Kousaka Kyosuke felt a little embarrassed watching Tsukuyomi busy herself around.

After a while.

Kyosuke Kousaka returned home with a full load of goodies...

Day 492 of crossing

Kyosuke Kousaka hasn't rested.

He was preparing to cause trouble for Tsukuyomi.

Just like his actions before Tsukuyomi, he was prepared to strike first.

Otherwise, who knows if we'll continue to suffer?

“It probably won’t be that easy,” Longkui, who was traveling with Kousaka Kyosuke, frowned. “Since he is a high-ranking god, the authority he wields is likely enough to protect himself. We’ll be covered in mud then.”

Kagura, who was still acting alongside Kyosuke Kousaka, had a special idea.

“Since Tsukuyomi made a deal with the evil gods, there will be traces. Even if we try to hide it, it’s not impossible to find some evidence. Perhaps we can find clues from the evil gods.”
