Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

"I understand, Lord Kyosuke. Please be careful!"

Su Chang couldn't help but give a word of advice.

Kyosuke Kosaka said, "Don't worry, you know about the preparations I made before, so I'll be fine."

"Ok!"

Su Chang nodded, then glanced longingly at Kousaka Kyosuke before heading towards the core area of ​​the manor.

After Su Chang left, Kousaka Kyosuke gave Kagura some instructions.

"Kagura, be ready to guide me at any time."

"Ok."

Kagura replied softly, her gaze mostly fixed on her surroundings.

Knowing full well that she couldn't be a main fighter, Kagura has always positioned herself as a support character.

"Next, we might have to coordinate with shrinking the battle lines, otherwise the power to maintain the barrier will become increasingly stronger, and even if Kyosuke can manage it, it will eventually become a burden for him..."

In fact, Kyosuke Kousaka was thinking about the same thing as Kagura—

Since the end of the Battle of Suzuka and the beginning of Orochi's actions, Kyosuke Kousaka had long been prepared to shrink the size of his manor and even use a magic circle to take a group of people away from Kyoto.

Therefore, those in the know understood that the manor could be abandoned at any time.

However, considering the severe material shortage that would result from abandoning the manor, they tried their best not to do so.

Otherwise, the cost of food, clothing, and daily necessities for such a large group of people would be a huge expense, and objectively speaking, it would be difficult to find anyone to handle it.

Even if it's the sect leader or Taoist priest, he probably still has to take responsibility for these problems involving a group of vassals.

After all, most places outside Kyoto are probably out of contact. Even if they are lucky enough to be safe, how to transport supplies from there is another problem.

Kyoto has abundant spiritual energy, but little land is used for agriculture; most of it is used for other purposes.

Let's get back to the main topic.

Kyosuke Kosaka never imagined that, on the eve of battle, he would be thinking not about his own safety, but about the survival of his subordinates. It was truly ridiculous.

"They're all my subordinates, after all, so it's reasonable for me to cover some of their normal expenses..."

Kyosuke Kosaka convinced himself of this.

"I gonna go see."

After observing the "nothingness" outside for a while, Kyosuke Kosaka finally decided to head towards the source of the void.

The most important thing to do now is to block the source and divert the "nothingness" elsewhere, like a diverting a stream. This will alleviate the problem.

This is certainly not about sitting idly by and waiting to die.

The deeper reason is still a matter of time.

Yes, time.

If we can simply delay until the time of the battle with Yamata no Orochi, then all the problems will be solved, and we won't need to think about it anymore.

In short, after telling Kagura, Kyosuke Kousaka set off.

As a result, not long after leaving the manor, Kousaka Kyosuke almost got lost.

"Yes, nothingness is the element that constructs all things, encompassing everything, including time and space. It should contain everything. The reason I didn't get lost before was because Ara was by my side."

"Perhaps it also has something to do with the concentration I'm in right now; the void here seems to be even denser than in the underworld..."

Kyosuke Kosaka looked around, growing increasingly wary.

It's obvious he believes this situation is directed at him; otherwise, how can such a coincidence be explained? An accident?

No, such a dangerous coincidence does not exist!

wrong! !

Kousaka Kyosuke, who was gradually unable to sense anything yet unexpectedly had a sudden urge to react, immediately used a forbidden technique.

The next moment, Kyosuke Kosaka appeared in the air above the manor.

What came first was that deathly, pitch-black substance...

"—!"

A flash of bloodlust crossed Kousaka Kyosuke's eyes.

Ang~

It sounded as if a dragon's roar had pierced the sky, and the rolling thunderous sound spread for miles around.

Countless people in the manor looked up and saw a colossal dragon shadow, almost blotting out the sky, dancing about. The substance, which looked like thick black mud and seemed about to cover the entire manor, vanished in the blink of an eye...

A large expanse of sky revealed a rare clarity and brightness, even more so than in recent days.

"Join us! You are different from those humans."

"Join us in creating a new world, and you will become a creator just like us."

"Hahaha, you actually believed Takamagahara's lies. It seems you didn't know that some of our comrades were already among them."

"Join us, and we'll help you and those you care about find liberation in reality..."

Somewhere in the sky, countless "nothingness" surged and churned, forming an ever-growing vortex.

Countless ghostly hands danced within the vortex, accompanied by a constant stream of seductive voices.

Kyosuke Kousaka, whose eyes still held a red glow, smiled.

"Then thank you all."

Before the conversation had even ended, Kyosuke Kousaka had already vanished.

Another dragon roar resounded, and many people who were looking closely at the sky clearly saw a blood-red dragon's tail sweeping upwards.

That was truly a sky-covering phenomenon!

Countless people only saw a hazy, eerie pale red, the darkness in their eyes completely gone, and some with keen hearing could even hear faint screams...

"Kyosuke-sama!"

"a!"

In the manor, many people were worried about Kyosuke Kousaka's situation.

No one expected such a terrible thing to happen, and it happened almost without any warning!

"The scent of Kyosuke-sama is everywhere."

Su Chang's eyes were red and she understood what this red mist, which almost covered half the sky, was about.

Kagura didn't shed tears; she just lowered her head, pondering how to advise Kousaka Kyosuke, who was clearly overly angry.

If it weren't for the fact that they were still in the midst of a tense battle, she would have contacted Kousaka Kyosuke right now, but since she didn't even know the situation, she naturally couldn't act rashly.

"Dragon..."

Han Lingsha stared blankly at the sky, her mind a complete blank.

She remembered hearing many people say that Kyosuke Kousaka's spirit was a phoenix... but now a dragon had inexplicably appeared, almost indistinguishable from a real one.

Han Lingsha almost thought that Kosaka Kyosuke was a dragon. Could it be true?

"dragon……"

Murong Ziying, who knew a little about dragons, had a complicated expression. He knew very well that Kousaka Kyosuke was not a mythical creature like a dragon, and had probably used some kind of terrifying secret technique.

However, this forbidden technique is no different from that of a dragon... It's similar to some methods from the Central Plains, as well as previous martial arts and swordsmanship.

Suddenly, Murong Ziying frowned slightly again.

Whenever dragons are mentioned, he thinks of the monstrous dragons that wreak havoc in the East Sea.

According to news from the Heavenly Realm, this dragon is disobedient to the Heavenly Realm's management and even insults the Heavenly Emperor. Previously, when epidemics broke out in various places, those dragons forbade humans from picking the spiritual herbs in their areas.

No, the medicinal herbs on that island are clearly not from the East Sea! They just need to pass through the East Sea, but that demonic dragon won't allow anyone to pass!

Because of this, countless people have died in the Central Plains. It is said that the divine realm has already dispatched divine generals to capture this demonic dragon and its other dragon clan members.

It is also said that there have been quite a few such rebellions, which is why someone from the divine realm descended to the mortal world and found their sect...

Within the enormous "void" vortex of the sky.

Covered in blood, Kyosuke Kousaka quietly straightened his clothes. At one moment, he felt someone watching him, and he raised his eyes, which had turned cold and unsettling.

"Tsukuyomi, if you continue to test me, I will come find you right now."

As soon as he finished speaking, the extremely subtle investigation disappeared.

Kyosuke Kosaka seemed to have recovered and patted his face with both hands.

"Still so cute."

Her emotional control is perfect.

I'll go back and tell everyone what happened.

The evil god fought back, and that was basically a perfect outcome.

What's wrong with it?
