Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

He didn't object to Komachi being nicer to his brother.

This is normal.

Why be jealous of someone else's pure brother-sister relationship that has lasted for over a decade?

However, what happened today was somewhat unexpected for Kyosuke Kousaka.

How come Komachi didn't pick out the clothes that suited Hachiman Hikigaya so well?

Not scientific.

"It's time for you to get married. If you find someone suitable, just let me know, and I'll have someone take care of the arrangements."

"...No, that's not true!"

Hachiman Hikigaya waved his hands frantically.

Kousaka Kyosuke's ambiguous smile—wasn't that a sign of his guilty conscience?

"Marriage is a fundamental human relationship, so you should decide as soon as possible."

“I can still help you bring over farm girls from the village, or even private slaves from other officials.”

"As for your unwillingness, I won't force you, but I suggest you think it through carefully."

"If you don't choose the women who favor you today, then don't do anything to make things difficult for me in the future..."

Undoubtedly, women in this era are tools.

Kyosuke Kosaka disliked this very much.

However, they wouldn't even think about changing anything.

This is something that's hard to change.

Add your own opinion of not complying.

At least within the mansion, Kyosuke Kosaka still treated his partners in a way that aligned with his own beliefs and values.

They were unwilling, and Kyosuke Kosaka did not force them.

Let's get back to the main topic.

Currently, Kyosuke Kosaka is facing some problems with his brother-in-law, Hachiman Hikigaya.

Therefore, I was thinking of taking care of it while I was at it.

"...No, no."

"Okay, then no."

Seeing that Hachiman Hikigaya was stubbornly shaking his head, Kyosuke Kousaka didn't say anything more.

People bring this upon themselves.

Or perhaps, Kyosuke Kosaka's assessment was just too apt.

On his way back in the afternoon, Kyosuke Kosaka met Hachiman Hikigaya, who immediately showed a complicated expression upon seeing him.

Hachiman Hikigaya, who was about ten meters away, ran over without hesitation when he saw Kyosuke Kousaka.

Take a running start, kneel down and glide, then push off with both hands and slam your head down!

Move - Ultimate Tiger Landing Stance!

boom!

"Lord Kyosuke, you must help me!"

Komachi, who was chatting with Hikigaya, was dumbfounded.

Her small mouth was slightly open, and the little tiger teeth that were showing this time had a bewildered look on them.

What is my brother doing?

"You get up first."

With a twitching eyelid, Kousaka Kyosuke forcefully helped Hachiman up.

He witnessed this guy's shamelessness today.

"Brother..." Komachi finally realized what was happening and ran over.

"You should listen too, I don't know what happened yet."

Kyosuke Kosaka quickly patched up his own image.

Does that mean—I don't know what I did, but your brother knelt before me?

To Kyosuke Kousaka, Komachi is adorable.

She is also very sensible.

She is the kind of girl who should never lose even the slightest bit of goodwill.

"Brother!" Komachi was a little angry!

She realized what was happening, raised her hand to pat Hachiman Hikigaya, and in doing so, brushed the dust off his clothes.

Hachiman Hikigaya, realizing he had acted too impulsively, gave an awkward laugh.

"Let's go to the ferry hall first; there are too many people and too many eyes here."

Kousaka Kyosuke said.

Hachiman Hikigaya and Komachi usually meet at the outer residence.

Servants frequently come and go from the outer quarters, so it's not safe to speak freely there.

Crossing the palace.

To stop Hachiman Hikigaya from kneeling again, Kyosuke Kousaka commanded him to quickly explain the situation.

Here's a chance to increase Komachi's affection level.

He decided he wouldn't let any of them get away!

"The thing is like this..."

Under Komachi's angry glare, Hachiman Hikigaya honestly explained the problem.

After listening carefully, Kyosuke Kosaka immediately understood the whole story.

Brief summary.

The personal servants who frequently helped Hachiman Hikigaya and brought him food were to be married off to other people of the same status.

Hachiman Hikigaya finally couldn't sit still any longer.

Which noble family?

"...Genji."

"Lately, I've been wanting to avoid any contact with this force."

"..." Hachiman Hikigaya remained silent.

Komachi was sad.

She knew that the Genji clan was a very powerful family in this era.

They wield immense power, both within the Onmyoji faction and in the imperial court…

"You'd better bring more people, otherwise this will be a very bad deal for me."

Kyosuke Kousaka, who had intended to tease Hachiman Hikigaya, immediately said...

He quickly spoke up after realizing that Komachi was also unhappy.

"Is this alright?" Komachi finally couldn't help but interject.

Kyosuke Kousaka, who really wanted to pat Komachi's head, just smiled:

"That's not a problem, because it's not difficult for me, although the timing is a bit tricky."

subtle?

Hachiman Hikigaya's expression shifted slightly.

In an instant, the image of Minamoto no Yorimitsu immediately came to mind.

After the destruction of Mount Ōe, Minamoto no Yorimitsu became the clan head, but many things happened within the clan afterward.

Due to his position, he could only live near the Minamoto clan's territory.

Hachiman Hikigaya could always smell a familiar stench of blood in it...

Even in the darkness, one could clearly hear faint sounds of fighting and arguing.

This gave Hachiman Hikigaya a very bad feeling.

Therefore, he could immediately confirm that Kyosuke Kousaka was not lying.

"that……"

"You don't want them?"

Kousaka Kyosuke looked slightly cold.
