Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Page 1045

That's because he was corrupted by the Yamata no Orochi curse.

Continue purifying and piecing together the resurrected items to use as helpers.

Yes, the artifact is powerful.

It's enough to give them a chance to turn the tide in future battles, so they definitely need to be revived.

In short, the subsequent development is definitely a case of "reconciliation after a breakup"!

Is it troublesome or not?

Kousaka Kyosuke just wanted to say that he definitely wouldn't be idle by then.

The specific time should be when the spiritual energy in and around Kyoto was almost completely absorbed, forcing Seimei to take action.

Clearly, Seimei's caution was quite normal.

The mastermind behind it all, Orochi, is even more cunning.

They have long since reached the level of "I predicted your prediction".

In response, Kyosuke Kosaka silently observed the situation and did not take any rash actions.

Ultimately, it doesn't possess the power to change everything.

Therefore, we should proceed cautiously and steadily.

Most importantly, Kyosuke Kosaka didn't want to make any rash moves that could introduce even greater variables.

"At least we can still make some inferences and predictions about how things will develop, and judging from the situation, it won't affect my life or the lives of those around me..."

This is precisely what Kyosuke Kousaka is paying more attention to.

While it may seem cold-hearted, there's really nothing wrong with living a refined life.

At most, it just wears down one's conscience a bit.

This is his principle in life.

It will never change easily from beginning to end.

"There seems to be something strange over there," Kagura suddenly said.

Kousaka Kyosuke, who had thought of many things in an instant but never revealed anything unusual, said:

"Okay, I'll send a paper effigy to check."

Although it was just a strange change in the celestial phenomena and was still a bit far from him, he still felt obligated to take care of it.

Because in this era, being an Onmyoji carries this responsibility.

Having said that, he tossed a paper figure in the direction of the unusual celestial phenomenon.

"Are you alright?" Princess Kaguya asked worriedly.

Kyosuke Kosaka smiled and shook his head: "I think this kind of thing will be very common in the future. Since we haven't found the reason yet, you'll have to get used to it."

"...It looks terrifying."

"Don't worry, can't you see I'm perfectly at ease?"

"In any case... Lord Kyosuke, please be careful..."

Princess Kaguya did not easily let go of her worries.

I am very clear about Kyosuke Kousaka's responsibilities and understand that he has always been at the forefront in previous wars.

She certainly didn't think that what Kousaka Kyosuke was about to face would be easy.

"Don't worry! Everyone's here, right? Kagura and Susou are helping me in battle. You guys are in charge of logistics. I'm tired, so make sure to comfort me."

Kyosuke Kosaka smiled and placed his hands on Kagura and Susou's shoulders.

Their attention was focused on Princess Kaguya and Fujishikibu.

"I will do my best." Fujishibu smiled faintly, bowing his head as he spoke.

The response was quite quick.

In fact, Fujishikibu had guessed some of Kousaka Kyosuke's thoughts and understood that he was definitely hiding something.

But she didn't worry too much about this.

Ultimately, worrying is useless.

It will also affect Kyosuke Kousaka's condition, so it's best to maintain the usual routine.

All she could do was what Kyosuke Kosaka said—take charge of logistics.

This is the most correct way to deal with it.

"I will do my best!"

Princess Kaguya quickly continued Fujishikibu's words.

Kyosuke Kousaka released his arms from Kagura and Susou, and smiled at Princess Kaguya.

"Not only that, you also need to take good care of yourself. Remember to come to the manor if you have any problems, okay?"

"Since there's a problem, I'd better go back to the manor to avoid it for a while."

"There's no need for that. It's just a few steps away, and I've already set up a defensive barrier here, which is enough to handle any trouble. Don't make yourself suffer."

"I never feel wronged. Being with Mr. Kyosuke... I am very happy!"

Princess Kaguya clenched her small hands in front of her chest, her cheeks flushed, and spoke the words in her heart.

Cough, cough.

When Kousaka Kyosuke met Kaguya's honest, sincere yet shy and straightforward gaze, he felt unusually embarrassed.

Everyone's here.

Is confessing your love in public too intense?

No, at this point, we should definitely forge ahead!

"I'm very happy with Princess Kaguya!" Kyosuke Kousaka said without much hesitation.

What's embarrassing?

They were instantly wiped out!

The reason? Need I even explain?

The adorable Kaguya-hime confessed her love in public; she'll probably be incredibly shy when she realizes what she's done.

Given this situation, Kyosuke Kousaka should "turn the tables" and try to minimize Kaguya's psychological burden in the future.

"what……"

When Princess Kaguya saw Kyosuke Kousaka confessing his love to her in public, she instinctively covered her face with her hands and looked away with trembling eyes.

Kagura, Susou, and Fuji Shikibu all maintained a very calm demeanor upon witnessing this scene.

Kagura: "Kyosuke's words are always very nice, and I like listening to them too."

Su Chang asked, "Why isn't Princess Kaguya shy after expressing her love, but becomes incredibly shy after hearing Lord Kyosuke express his love?"

Fujishikibu: "Kyosuke-sama must really like Kaguya-hime's reaction..."

Just as Fujishikibu had imagined, Kousaka Kyosuke was absolutely thrilled!

Princess Kaguya's adorable little rabbit-like demeanor decisively activated the slowly flowing blood in his body—he was about to explode!

The process of Kaguya taking the initiative and then becoming shy was too exciting for him.

Especially when you see her big, watery eyes filled with spring mist, and her little body swaying back and forth...

If Kyosuke Kosaka says he has no reaction, then that's definitely not normal.

Unfortunately, Princess Kaguya was still very young.

He certainly cannot break the law.

Hmm, let's try to calm down and continue chatting to relax~

Day 370 of crossing

Yesterday, Kousaka Kyosuke, who had taken Fujishige out, originally planned to continue towards the manor with the group.

Unfortunately, no one was willing to go there anymore.

Fortunately, the environment inside Kyoto was not particularly smelly, so he simply went to visit other friends alone to maintain his political relationships.

Incidentally, the strange phenomenon in the sky yesterday reappeared today, but it was all for naught.

Nothing really happened; at most, it only caused panic among some timid people.

During his subsequent visits to his friends, Kyosuke Kosaka gradually learned that many of the nobles in the court were afraid of something, and that many of them were simply living in houses around the Imperial Palace these days.

All I can say about this is "666" (a Chinese internet slang term for "awesome").

What else can we do?

Meanwhile, Kyosuke Kosaka also heard that land along a major road was more valuable than ever before.

It's probably a main road that serves as a gathering place for Onmyoji, where you'd feel incredibly safe, right?
