Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Page 430

On the one hand, he knew that Minamoto no Yorihei would give him an explanation.

on the other hand.

He discovered something quite interesting.

Yes, just now when Hachiman was talking about himself, a strange fluctuation of demonic energy appeared somewhere.

It is so minute that it is almost impossible for anyone to notice.

"By the way, where did your good friend Prajna go? Aren't you going to go play with him?"

"I have a job, and he has things to do too..."

"There's nothing going on in Kyoto right now, let's go visit him."

Kousaka Kyousuke smiled and waved.

Upon hearing this, Hikigaya seemed to realize something, and his pupils contracted slightly.

Ayanokouji looked slightly taken aback. Who was Hannya?

Yang Nai was surprised. What was going on?

Prajna?

Who is Prajna?

After Kyosuke Kousaka led Haruno into the manor, Ayanokoji looked at Hachiman.

Hikigaya seemed to hear the silent question and subconsciously touched his nose.

"He's a pretty good friend..."

As he spoke, his gaze swept around.

After being reminded by Kyosuke Kosaka, he guessed that Hannya should be nearby.

Should I leave?

"it is good."

"..."

Ayanokouji, who was about to leave, did not move.

He was curious.

I'm curious about who this friend of Hikigaya is that even Kyosuke Kousaka knows.

"...Wasn't the plan to avoid it?" Hachiman asked, annoyed.

He discovered that Ayanokouji's controlling nature was indeed very strong.

What do you take him for?

Ayanokouji said calmly, "My legs are sore."

Hachiman didn't care anymore; he quickly ran to the side based on his intuition.

"Prajna!"

If we don't call them to stop, something terrible is about to happen!

This monster is too extreme!

Ayanokouji followed silently behind.

"I'm here, Hachi."

A sweet, gentle call rang out from around a bend in a side street.

Hachiman breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that you're here."

"...Sorry, I followed behind you, Xiao Ba."

The seemingly innocent boy emerged from the darkness of the side path.

Beneath her light yellow, fluffy hair.

Her long, slender eyes were filled with deep regret.

"It's nothing, it's nothing, I don't dislike it..."

Seeing that the young Hannya was heartbroken, Hikigaya hurriedly replied.

He didn't care at all about being followed.

Anyway, ever since he came into this world, some people have been following him.

I'm used to it.

"Hehe, Xiao Ba, do you mean you like it when I follow you?"

Prajna, who had been wearing a sad expression, suddenly broke into a smile.

Hachiman hummed in response: "...I don't care."

"Then I'll continue following Xiao Ba~"

"That's good too."

After thinking it over, Hikigaya decided to discuss the matter of the officer's son with Hannya in private.

“And this one…” Hannya looked at Ayanokouji with a puzzled expression.

Ayanokouji immediately introduced himself.

"My name is Kiyotaka, and like Hachi, I am a vassal of Lord Kyosuke."

"Oh, I'm Hannya, a friend of Xiao Ba. Nice to meet you."

"You're too kind."

Ayanokouji smiled, expressing his friendliness.

Hannya herself also showed a smile similar to that of Ayanokouji.

Hachiman's eyelids twitched; where was this place?

Despite his inner turmoil, he decided he still wanted to have a serious talk with Prajna.

To avoid situations that would put everyone in an awkward position.

That's it.

Hikigaya, Ayanokoji, and Hannya strolled along the street together.

During this time, Ayanokouji brought up what had just happened again.

"Who is that bald man?"

"Huang Guang, the eldest son of an officer transferred from Kyoto Port to the Outer Guard Office, is a ridiculous idiot."

"Wow, Xiao Ba actually gives such a high evaluation of someone."

"Because it was really stupid, the father tried to use his power to form a group even before he took office."

Knowing he couldn't hide it any longer, Hikigaya simply revealed some of Huang Guang's shady tactics.

For example, he pushed aside Minamoto no Yorihira's retinue.

Or perhaps it was an imperious command to give orders to other officials of higher or lower ranks.

Ayanokouji listened quietly, his expression unusually dazed.

"...Are you sure he doesn't have a grudge against Father?"

"That officer is over seventy years old."

"Oh, I see."

"Huh? Xiao Ba, what happened?"

"When you get old, you don't have the energy to take care of your children's affairs."

Hikigaya's explanation of the doubts of the Prajna.

"Oh, I see." Prajna seemed to understand.

He stared at Hachiman with a strange look in his eyes, a sudden sense of tension rising within him.

Humans will die within a few decades.

Will his only friend die by then?

"What should we do then?" Ayanokouji asked again.

In contrast, the Prajna that suddenly appears should be harmless.

He is still more concerned about the current situation of Hikigaya.

Hikigaya smiled bitterly.

"At that time, Huang Guang made too much noise ordering me around, so it just so happened that Lord Lai Ping was seeing Lord Kyosuke off when he left."
