Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Page 602

I haven't paid much attention to my brother lately.

"It's okay, I've almost forgotten I have an older brother." Shizuko scratched her face and comforted Komachi.

Komachi looked on with envy: "Kiyotaka-nii-san makes me feel very safe."

"Ah ha ha……"

Shizuko gave a dry laugh, unsure how to respond.

While the older brother may possess robot-like intelligence, his emotional intelligence is not necessarily high.

She still felt that Hikari was better than Kijima in terms of making people feel comfortable with her words and actions.

"Then I'll set off."

Seeing that everyone else was alright, Kyosuke Kosaka glanced at the group of people he was about to take on a mission and stood up.

The other couples also got up one after another, and then saw Kousaka Kyosuke off.

"Yukino, go to the east room and help pack Father's clothes."

"Yes."

Yukino responded to her sister, trying her best to suppress the reluctance in her heart.

Her husband and father were both very busy, and both might be in danger, so she was very worried.

However, worrying was of no use.

She understood that what she should do was take good care of herself and not cause trouble for others.

The same applies to others.

Miku: "Should we bring a few more packets of incense for Father?"

Yotsuba: "You can try the perfume, I mixed it~"

May: "Please bring more food for Father!"

Ichika: "It would be better if the clothes were prettier."

Nino: "Smoked clothes plus some sweets will do, let's go quickly..."

The five sisters hurried to the east room.

Shizuko overheard their conversation and, as if struck by a revelation, began preparing some perfumed clothes for her brother, Ayanokouji.

"Eru, you still have some of the meat sauce you made before, right?"

"Yes, it's delicious! I made twenty bottles! There are sixteen left!"

"One bottle is enough... I'll also get my brother a big jar of miso soybean paste."

Shizuko rested her chin on her hand, deep in thought.

He's my brother, after all. No matter how annoying he is, I still have to send him my regards.

Compared to Yukino, the five sisters, Shizuko, and others, no one from the families of Kaori, Fujishikibu, Fumino, and others joined the Kenbishi Agency, so they didn't need to do anything.

In fact, Kyosuke Kosaka never thought about what value his spouse should achieve.

As long as I'm happy, that's all that matters.

"Yoto Hime, Hakuro, go to the eight and nine main roads of Ukyo to sweep away evil demons and some thugs. Wait around the Rasho Gate."

"Yes."×2

The two shikigami left decisively.

"Plain clothes, divine music."

"Lord Kyosuke!" his two wives replied in unison.

Kyosuke Kosaka laughed and said, "Just follow me..."

Su Chang is clingy, and so is Kagura. Let's find Kuro Seimei and the others while also being affectionate with our wives. Anyway, things can't be changed.

Su Chang and Kagura were both delighted to hear what Kousaka Kyosuke said.

The three then began patrolling and sweeping.

In less than half an hour, the sky over Kyoto suddenly turned dark and oppressive, and large amounts of yin energy and miasma began to surge...

A hint of seriousness flashed deep in Kousaka Kyosuke's eyes as he faintly caught a whiff of snake odor.

The Witch Orochi is really coming.

158. Hachiman's Wrath / Situation / Haruno and Yukino, Challenge / Miasma Emerges

"Lord Kyosuke, look! The giant serpent has appeared again!"

The perceptive Su Chang immediately pointed to the southwest.

A large amount of yin energy was rapidly surging into Kyoto, seemingly resonating with some terrifying entity within the city.

Miasma, appearing from an unknown source, gradually enveloped the entire capital.

In the blink of an eye, the terrifying giant snake from yesterday morning reappeared, its heads appearing and disappearing in the sky.

Kyosuke Kosaka looked on calmly:

"The great serpent is about to emerge from its seal. Its power is immense, and I'm not sure if I can fight it."

"For now, let's protect the area north of the four main roads and prevent it from being too affected."

Su Chang nodded her head and said, "It's my duty!"

The husband has it very tough.

I've encountered many troubles since marrying into this family, so it's best to be cautious.

Seeing that Kyosuke Kousaka was about to bend down and carry Kagura, he eagerly said, "I'll carry Kagura."

Kyosuke Kosaka refused outright.

"That won't do. I'll be happier carrying Kagura on my back, and I'll carry you on my back when I have time."

Su Chang looked at the position of Kousaka Kyosuke's hand and suddenly realized, then looked at Kagura with envy: "That's so nice."

A blush crept across Kagura's calm face.

"...I should actually learn some travel techniques."

"Learning is necessary, but I still think it's faster to carry you on my back."

With his hands supporting Kagura's thighs, between her buttocks and knees, Kyosuke Kosaka deftly hoisted Kagura onto his back.

Kagura, who casually hooked her arms around Kousaka Kyosuke's neck, gave a soft "hmm" and nuzzled her face against Kousaka Kyosuke's side like a little animal.

Su Chang was even more envious when she saw this; being young has so many advantages.

Of course, she still doesn't need such benefits.

After all, it's not right for young people to engage in marital relations.

As for Kagura...

As long as I can be with Kyosuke Kousaka, I don't care whether we have a married life or not.

"lets go."

As he spoke, Kousaka Kyosuke quickly headed north.

Su Chang quickly followed.

First they arrived at the government office.

After making a brief appearance, Kyosuke Kosaka told the rest of the staff to continue working.

Everyone is working very hard.

Some people even fell asleep leaning against a corner, and Kyosuke Kosaka didn't seem to mind.

Everyone's job is predetermined, and they still have to work when the time comes.

Kyosuke Kosaka even arranged for people to deliver their salaries to their homes.

Ultimately, the vast majority of firefighters relied on their daily wages to support their families.

A family in this era isn't just about a wife and children; it also includes many elderly relatives...

"Lord Kyosuke, what will the future hold?" a lieutenant couldn't help but ask.

Kousaka Kyosuke replied:

“A sealed being is about to be born. During this time, a large number of evil spirits will appear. Be prepared. I will work with the other Onmyoji in Kyoto to find a way to seal or deal with that being.”

As soon as these words were spoken, the surroundings immediately fell silent.

A sealed existence?

Kyosuke Kosaka spoke vaguely, but how could anyone with a brain not guess what was going on?

Ultimately, the celestial phenomena of the past two days have explained everything.

The countless snake heads that suddenly appeared in the sky yesterday and today clearly demonstrate that the situation in Kyoto is more tense than imagined.
