Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

That's how couples in the tribe are.

White Wolf had always thought that Kousaka Kyosuke wouldn't do such a thing, but he never expected that Kyosuke would know so much about these things.

The Demon Blade Princess, who was secretly watching, also blushed a little.

Seeing the white wolf being held, she felt a surge of empathy.

She had been puzzled by some of Kousaka Kyosuke's actions during the previous campaign against Mount Oe, but now she had gotten used to them and even liked them.

Whenever I'm a little more lucid, I wonder if it's a bit absurd?

Then I thought about how everyone does it when we hold banquets, so it seems like these things aren't such a big deal.

Kagura was very calm.

She rarely leaves Kousaka Kyosuke's side and spends a lot of time being held.

Therefore, there was nothing to envy.

As time passed, Kyosuke Kosaka stopped hugging anyone and the group started talking about serious matters.

"It's raining now, and I wonder if the siren will take advantage of this time to attack," the white wolf suddenly said.

Kyosuke Kosaka said, "Yes, their spells to control the ocean waves will definitely be stronger when they attack at times like this. But what's the benefit of attacking? They can only profit if they win the battle."

Yaodao-hime quickly offered her own insights on this matter.

"That's not to say it's impossible. The main thing is to create some chaos in the situation, making it difficult for our forces to support other places."

Kyosuke Kousaka fell into quiet thought.

He carefully considered the current situation—

A significant portion of the Arakawa area has been captured, but some aquatic monster warriors are still guarding it. The blood sacrifice is essentially complete.

Ōtakemaru often leads troops here, probably still trying to confuse the public and deceive everyone.

If I'm not mistaken, Kousaka Kyosuke believes that Ōtakemaru probably won't come back many more times.

Since the ritual in Arakawa is complete, there's no benefit in coming over.

What about Qijiao Mountain? It seems many people died there, so it's highly unlikely they'll go there again.

The same applies to the Plains of Oma, and it's unclear what Tamamo-no-Mae is like.

Even if Tamamo-no-Mae were to fight her, it would be a 50/50 match at best.

That's just how unreasonable these magical artifacts are.

Then there's Mount Kuroya and Mount Oe.

These two places are the key.

Mount Kuroya has no protective forces; the most powerful yokai, Ōtengu, resides in the Yokai Market.

What will happen to the monsters inside? That's up to fate.

Then there's Mount Oe.

The demons and monsters there are naturally violent and fond of fighting, and when they see sea monsters coming, they are more likely to greet them with great joy.

When Kyosuke Kosaka was fighting the Ōeyama tribe, he had a full experience of their ethnic customs.

One or two of them are all competitive and eager to win.

He particularly enjoys fighting.

What else could Kyosuke Kosaka say?

Have fun.

But ah.

Both his brothers-in-law have gone there; this is not a good sign.

Kyosuke Kosaka couldn't meddle too much; he could only hope they wouldn't act impulsively.

Under normal circumstances, the hidden tricks he provides are sufficient.

Furthermore, Minamoto no Yorimitsu would never send them on missions that would result in certain death, so their survival rate was very high.

Why would Kyosuke Kousaka care?

Ultimately, we cannot allow people to do nothing in such a time of crisis.

"When the crucial moment of attacking Mount Oe comes, I still have to go and see. I'll ask Higanbana to help guard the house then."

Kyosuke Kousaka made up his mind.

In the storyline of Onmyoji, the fight against Mount Ooe during the invasion of the Sea Kingdom was the most desperate.

Since the Sea Kingdom had carried out blood sacrifice rituals in places such as Arakawa, Oma no Kagami, Shichikakuyama, and Kuroyayama, the remaining Mount Ooe became the final and most important target.

Under these circumstances, it is perfectly normal for the Sea Kingdom to mobilize all its forces.

The problem is that the demons of Mount Ooe are truly among the most powerful of all the monsters.

Furthermore, Minamoto no Yorimitsu, seeing that things were not going well, completely ignored the conflict between humans and transvestites and simply proposed cooperation.

Therefore, it goes without saying how desperately the Sea Kingdom would fight...

Thinking about all this, Kyosuke Kousaka felt a little melancholy again.

It looks even more tragic than the original story.

The perspective shifts to the other side.

Because of the rain, Princess Goldfish took Princess Kaguya to her residence to take shelter from the rain.

Like most people's houses, it only has an area of ​​70 pings.

Moreover, considering the land area, Kyosuke Kosaka, at Shizuko's suggestion, built a modern-style multi-story building with Kagura when they were building the house.

The monsters found it novel and interesting, and had no complaints whatsoever.

It's a win-win situation.

"It's so high! You can see so many places..." Princess Kaguya exclaimed softly as she stood on the balcony.

Princess Goldfish smiled smugly: "I like it here too~"

As he spoke, he looked regretfully at the Arakawa River, which could only be seen as a line in the distance.

That was her and her people's homeland.

However, the sea monsters could attack at any time, and only the bravest and most skilled warriors of the tribe could stay there; otherwise, they would lose their lives in vain.

Everyone is unable to return home.

"Princess Goldfish..." Sensing Princess Goldfish's emotions, Princess Kaguya hesitated before speaking.

Princess Goldfish instinctively straightened her head and puffed out her chest: "I'm not lonely at all!"

"I will stay with you, Princess Goldfish."

"You don't need to come with me. You can go ahead if you have something to do."

"Didn't you ask me to stay with you temporarily...?"

"Oh, right. I almost forgot about that. The siren is awful. For your safety, you shouldn't go back to the bamboo forest yet."

Princess Goldfish concealed her panic.

Princess Kaguya nodded her head knowingly: "Please."

"It was mainly Kyosuke, Kagura, and Susa who helped. We owe a lot to them for what happened in Arakawa this time."

"Yes, I owe it all to everyone when I first woke up..."

"Don't take this too seriously. The promise of repayment was just a joke."

"But I also want to do my part..."

"No need, no need," Princess Goldfish waved her hand and then poured tea.

Afterwards, the two drank tea and chatted for a while.

This time, it was Princess Kaguya who spoke first.

"Princess Goldfish, you and Mr. Kyosuke..."

"Hmm! Something happened."

Princess Goldfish blushed immediately.

Without any hesitation, she briefly explained how they met.

Princess Kaguya listened in a daze, her mind going completely blank.

For a moment, I felt as if I had been abandoned.

"Princess Goldfish has grown up, and she's with Mr. Kyosuke..."

"Hey, Princess Kaguya, want to come with me? That way we can play together from now on."

"C-can it?"

Princess Kaguya, who had been looking down at some point, suddenly raised her head, her face full of hope.
