Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

"..." Kaguya Shinomiya was shocked as she clearly saw Kyosuke Kousaka's injuries.

Kousaka Kyosuke's eyes were tightly closed, his brows furrowed, and a large, gruesome wound on his chest and abdomen almost split him in two diagonally.

The fresh internal organs inside the chest were writhing violently...

Doesn't it hurt?

Does it really not hurt at all?

Kaguya Shinomiya, observing the slight twitching on Kyosuke Kousaka's face, could tell that Kyosuke Kousaka was capable of feeling pain.

Maki, Hayasaka Ai, Kei, and others standing beside her could also see it clearly.

Such a horrific and tragic scene did not make them nauseous?

They had already seen many bloody things along the way, so they didn't care about this one.

Ayanokoji and Hikigaya were exchanging glances.

"Run further away?"

"...Running any further probably won't make a difference, right?"

"That's true."

The two had been working together for less than a year, but they had already developed a great deal of understanding with each other.

Several months ago, it was possible to have basic, simple communication through facial expressions and other means.

No one around dared to speak.

So quiet you can hear a pin drop.

She was afraid of attracting Kyosuke Kousaka's attention.

Everyone was eagerly anticipating that Kousaka Kyosuke would quickly defeat the evil dragon and bring this trial to a complete end.

They just want to go back!

After recovering, Kyosuke Kousaka was fighting the evil dragon again in a quarter of an hour!

"Its strength is about the same as mine, but I expended at least half of my strength and energy on the way, so my recovery is extremely poor. On the contrary, this dragon's injuries will be almost gone in another fifteen minutes..."

Kousaka Kyosuke thought calmly.

It was discovered that there was no other way besides "exploding".

"Explosive power" is actually the burning of one's own soul, which greatly enhances one's strength in a short period of time and quickly resolves the battle.

Of course, if you don't want to do that, you can take the initiative to break the deadlock, which means breaking up the game and overturning the board, and see if you can find the serpent's back move on Kagura.

However, integrity is a problem.

As he gradually became familiar with this era, Kyosuke Kosaka realized that the spirit of contract was extremely important.

Whether it is a human, a monster, or a god.

Breach of contract means that one has no integrity to speak of in the future.

If I have contact with Orochi in the future, can I still expect him to uphold integrity and the spirit of contracts?

Considering their own weaker position.

Kyosuke Kosaka believes it's better to be a little "stubborn," uphold integrity, and adhere to the spirit of contracts.

Make a decision.

With a thought, crimson blood patterns appeared all over Kousaka Kyosuke's body, and his blood surged violently...

The murderous intent in his indifferent eyes was chilling!

The long sword in Kousaka Kyosuke's hand trembled like a raging dragon soaring into the sky, and the air in its path split in two!

Boom!

The sky exploded, and the air currents surged endlessly...

A huge, evil dragon was cleaved in two by a flash of light and fell heavily to the ground.

The loud thud resounded heavily in everyone's hearts.

died?

The dragon is dead!

"Congratulations on passing the final challenge. Hero who slayed the dragon to save the princess, please enter the castle."

The soft voice carried a hint of joy and laughter.

Kousaka Kyosuke, his body covered in blood, sighed inwardly. He had long understood that this god had never lost out.

"Does he want my soul to be wounded so that some of his plans can proceed smoothly?"

"Or perhaps you intend to release the miasma that corrupts my mind through some means—just like Susanoo?"

Speaking of which, is it really good to use Western fantasy elements in the Heian period?

The art style is definitely off.

It can only be said that time travelers can always influence things in various ways.

Hopefully, the giant snake won't go crazy again.

The Heian period should be about appreciating Japanese style.

While complaining, Kyosuke Kosaka walked into the castle without any worries.

Upon entering the main hall, he saw a young girl sleeping on a bed woven from countless beautiful flowers.

The girl's delicate face was fair and flawless, with a small nose and a small mouth. At this moment, she was sleeping soundly with her eyes closed...

"Where's the reward?"

"Isn't this... half a soul?"

"I see..."

Kyosuke Kousaka finally understood.

Orochi originally connected with the original Kagura through half of Kagura's soul.

Is this the backup plan?

That means the Orochi fragment might not be there... No, maybe it is. We should have Kagura's body checked properly in the future.

"Thank you very much, Lord Snake God."

"I see no gratitude whatsoever. It's a pity you ultimately failed to completely please me."

"hehe."

Kyosuke Kosaka just chuckled twice for no apparent reason.

Slaughtering his brothers-in-law, his subordinates, oh, and his fiancée... a whole host of innocent people?

Even if they don't ultimately die?

But is this correct?

"Return to the past." The faint voice finally rang out.

Kyosuke Kousaka, holding Kagura tightly, waited calmly.

As he watched the world gradually become chaotic and empty, his gaze suddenly turned cold, and he struck out with his palm towards a certain point in the void.

The surging divine intent roared and soared into the sky!

Boom!

A burst of the most dazzling light erupted from the chaotic void.

Kyosuke Kosaka vaguely saw a serpentine figure writhing...

"We still need to deal with the potential problems."

Countless people who thought they had left were stunned, vaguely seeing a mysterious figure tightly holding a child flying towards them.

“Arrogant brat, you’ve pleased me again…”

"I've given you my most beautiful, pure white soul. I look forward to you using your arrogance and conceit to please me again next time."

The pleasant chuckles grew softer and softer.

Kyosuke Kosaka muttered "pleasant monster" and used magic to safely remove those who had participated in the trial from the dream.

In everyone's eyes.

He only saw a burst of light that illuminated the entire world before he completely lost consciousness.

Even the strongest and most determined Ayanokoji and Hikigaya were no exception.

When the two woke up again, they found themselves standing next to their master, Kyosuke Kousaka, and instinctively bowed in hushed tones.

"Kyosuke-sama."
