Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

The caterpillar seemed startled and began to move, then started to crawl.

Not only caterpillars, but also other tiny insects, some no bigger than sesame seeds... Well, Shizuko's pesticide is still a bit too weak at repelling insects.

"There are too many. Should I burn them?"

After a while, Kyosuke Kosaka felt his trypophobia kick in and couldn't help but speak up.

Kagura nodded her little head: "Pests are different from other insects; they need to be dealt with."

In fact, Kagura felt that Kyosuke Kousaka was being too kind to her.

As far as Kagura is concerned.

She wouldn't casually destroy life, but if there's a reason, she won't show mercy to humans.

When she and Kyosuke Kosaka occasionally encountered vicious thieves, she would help them deal with them.

They will never let someone go just because they beg for mercy.

Kagura believed that evil people would not feel pity because of other people's pleas for mercy.

So what right do evil people have to demand sympathy from others when they face the same situation themselves?

As for how to judge a bad person?

Kagura can identify them through the magic taught to her by Kyosuke Kousaka.

Besides, she could also tell by her intuition.

Evil people, like demons, have harmed too many innocent people, and their bloodlust is hard to conceal.

Ordinary people, even Onmyoji, wouldn't notice it, but for Kagura, it was as if she could sense it instinctively.

Of course, when someone becomes a powerful yokai, like Tamamo-no-Mae, it becomes very difficult for Kagura to detect them.

Speaking of which, many nobles in Kyoto were quite spirited.

Kagura never cared about these things.

She believed that Yama, who controls reincarnation, would give these nobles a fair and just judgment after their deaths.

Moreover, as Kyosuke Kosaka said, many nobles did indeed have some merit in maintaining order.

"Many nobles knew what punishment they would receive after death, which is why they believed in the so-called 'Buddha'."

As Kagura watched Kousaka Kyosuke burn the pests, a question she had pondered for a long time flashed through her mind.

With the upcoming Buddhist ceremony, the number of monks and nuns in Kyoto has increased, and the imperial court has also temporarily issued many decrees to treat them leniently. Kagura has naturally begun to consider this issue.

Finally, a conclusion was reached.

The non-existent Buddha probably has a good effect on comforting people's hearts.

That's roughly it.

"There are quite a few pests," Kousaka Kyosuke remarked, feeling a chill run down his spine.

Kagura became embarrassed: "I'm sorry to have troubled you, Kyosuke."

"It's nothing, I'm happy to go to the trouble for you, Kagura!"

Kyosuke Kosaka seemed much more energetic, as if he had been injected with adrenaline.

Kagura's cheeks flushed slightly, and a sweet, gentle smile radiated from her, making her feel genuinely happy.

“Then let’s continue. I’ll give Kyosuke a back massage in a bit.”

"it is good!"

Kousaka Kyosuke was in a particularly happy mood.

Kagura is the same.

With the men and women working together, all the corn weevils were cleared away, leaving only ashes...

the other side.

The outer area of ​​the manor.

Yukino was doing errands with Yui Yuigahama.

On ordinary days, it's not very convenient for Su Yi to come into contact with too many people, and the available manpower is relatively limited.

With the arrival of some people in the bedchamber, many things indeed became much easier.

"The next step is to count the corn one last time," Yukino said slowly.

Yui Yuigahama, who was following Yukino like a little tail, looked surprised.

"Is this too late?"

“The corn is bundled in groups of ten, and a hundred are stacked together. It’s not too difficult to count them—leave this to me, you can take care of checking for any omissions.”

"Ok!"

The response was very powerful!

Yui Yuigahama's determination is unwavering!

After hearing encouragement from Kyosuke Kosaka, Yukino, and everyone else yesterday, she felt it was necessary to put in even more effort!

"Huh? The corn is stored in the inner area?"

"Yes, there are also large warehouses on the inner side."

"But how do we move the corn here later?"

Yui Yuigahama thought of a question.

The inner part of the manor is not large compared to the whole manor, but it is the central area of ​​the entire manor.

A structure similar to a mansion.

The manor owner, head of the family, Kyosuke Kosaka, and his female relatives lived here, in a similar arrangement to the sleeping quarters.

Closer retainers and their families also lived not far away, on the inner perimeter.

However, according to the rules, generally no one will enter the inner core area at will.

"Do not overlook Lord Kyosuke."

"Ah, it's Lord Kyosuke!"

Yui Yuigahama immediately thought of Kyosuke Kousaka's Onmyoji abilities.

That invisible, enormous spatial ability that seems capable of storing anything at will!

"So that means Lord Kyosuke is coming too?"

"They arrived half an hour ago."

"I see... Lord Kyosuke has arrived."

Yui Yuigahama subconsciously tidied the ends of her hair.

Yukino could sense Yui's nervousness without turning around, and could only try to comfort her in a low voice.

"If you can refrain from showing your emotions on your face, Kyosuke-sama will probably reduce his harassment of you."

"It wasn't harassment...it wasn't harassment! Kyosuke-sama was probably just showing concern."

Yui Yuigahama panicked and shook her hands frantically, looking completely helpless.

Even if this action has no effect on Yukino who is walking slowly ahead, since Yukino is unlikely to turn around to look at her.

"If you like this attention, then just do it the same as usual... He never ignores anyone."

"Yukino and Kyosuke-sama already have a very strong understanding."

"--It's not a tacit understanding."

Yukino denied it with even more emphasis.

After saying this, she quickened her pace.

Yui Yuigahama had no choice but to speed up and catch up.

"Yukino clearly likes Kyosuke-sama a lot, but she never says it out loud. But I think Kyosuke-sama must have known all along."

Yui Yuigahama was whispering to herself, her feelings were complicated.

Since coming into this world, she has always been quite worried about marriage.

Especially knowing that her marriage, which would determine the rest of her life, was decided by the steward himself, the fear she felt when she heard the news is something she will probably never forget for the rest of her life.

That is, after arriving at Kousaka Kyosuke's residence, she was specially taken care of by Yukino and her teacher, Hiratsuka Shizuka.

Only then did Yui Yuigahama have the mind to consider her marriage.

In reality, there was little choice in this marriage.

Once you know the best and most suitable target from the beginning, any normal person would choose it.

However, Yui Yuigahama has always been conflicted... wondering if this counts as a form of deception?

As her interactions with Kyosuke Kousaka increased over time, Yui Yuigahama realized that there was nothing left to agonize over!

Kyosuke Kousaka is like a special existence.
