Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Page 126

As they were talking, Kyosuke Kousaka suddenly felt a chill run through his body.

Suddenly, he felt no danger at all, so he could only secretly become more vigilant.

Youshi.

The sun is westward.

After leaving the clan with Su Chang, Kousaka Kyosuke was exhausted.

He didn't put on airs when answering various proactive questions.

I haven't become anyone's boss yet.

You can start taking care of it step by step after you start working.

"Lord Kyosuke, I will serve you well tonight!"

"Don't approach it with an attitude of repaying a debt of gratitude."

Kousaka Kyosuke tapped Su Chang, who had a serious expression on her face, with his finger.

He and Su Chang had only met a few times before they started dating.

That breaks the record for the worst scumbag.

Of course, it broke again last night.

It's fine no matter what.

Kyosuke Kosaka has a strong liking for Susho, a pure, lively, and cheerful girl.

They're incredibly endearing!

And Fujishikibu was just as generous last night.

"Hehe..." Su Chang chuckled, covering her forehead. She glanced at the sky and said, "We still have half an hour left. How about we go for a stroll around Qijiao Mountain?"

Kyosuke Kosaka nodded: "That works too. I was just looking to check out the changes over there."

Kyoto's geographical location is bordered by the Seven Corner Mountain to the north, Mount Ōe to the west, Mount Kuroya to the south, and the entire Omahara Plain to the east.

In addition, there is the Arakawa River at its southeastern estuary.

Together, they formed a pentagram-shaped barrier to suppress the evil god.

The only troublesome part was the Omahara Plain, which required crossing a sea.

Other places are very close to Kyoto!

Given Kousaka Kyosuke and Susou's abilities, they could arrive in less than the time it takes to brew a cup of tea.

"Wow! So much miasma!"

Su Chang asked in surprise as soon as she arrived at Qijiao Mountain.

It was her first time leaving Kyoto, so she was quite surprised by this.

Kyosuke Kosaka explained:

"Seven Horn Mountain can be said to be the place with the most miasma. The miasma in some ghost forests is so dense that even great demons cannot ignore it."

The Great Demon is the standard by which the nation's fighting strength is measured.

It's roughly equivalent to "The Strongest Onmyoji" or "The Great Onmyoji".

"It's quite awful. I've heard it's like that in other parts of Kyoto too..."

"I haven't been there, so I don't know, but it shouldn't be fake, otherwise officials wouldn't cry and write their wills every time they leave Kyoto."

"Yeah, there doesn't seem to be much to see around here."

Su Chang glanced around, her interest waning considerably.

She felt it would be better to go back and chat with the rest of her family.

Everyone's talking is so interesting!

Just as she was about to say she was leaving, she sensed something...

"Someone is calling for help."

Are you sure it's a person?

Kousaka Kyosuke asked a question, then released his senses.

"Come with me, I've found it."

"Hmm!" Su Chang quickly followed Kousaka Kyosuke, who had transformed into a gust of wind.

The two arrived at a deep, dark forest where even the light was not visible.

There is a wolf there.

"I also see that the miasma is very thick; it's somewhat dangerous."

Su Chang could vaguely see a white wolf howling and struggling.

The dry, withered branches clung to the wolf's limbs like ghostly claws.

"It's not too dangerous. I'll test it with my bow and arrow."

Kousaka Kyosuke, who felt that the miasma resembled the tentacles of a monster, thought for a moment and then took out a bow and arrow from his magical space.

His body was hunched over, like a crescent moon.

Kousaka Kyosuke focused his mind and fired an arrow.

In Su Chang's eyes.

The arrow shot by Kyosuke Kosaka vanished without a trace, and the next moment, an ear-splitting explosion was heard.

"Ouch!"

The white wolf suddenly broke away from the area and rushed anxiously towards the two.

"Woof woof!" Su Chang barked immediately.

The white wolf retreated abruptly, stopping in its tracks.

Kousaka Kyosuke: "..."

After a few seconds of silence, Kyosuke Kousaka raised his hand and threw a healing talisman onto the white wolf.

"Ow~"

"Ouch!"

"..." Kousaka Kyosuke watched silently as Su Chang imitated the howl of the white wolf.

After a long pause, he asked softly, "Do you understand?"

"I can't understand it, but I want to try to communicate with it."

"You should wait until it turns into a monster before you talk about it."

"Oh."

Su Chang tried to imitate the wolf's howl a few more times, but eventually gave up.

I just tried touching the white wolf's fur.

The white wolf, having lowered its guard, yawned: "Haaah~"

"Look, the wolf seems to have an owner; it even has braids!"

Su Chang carefully lifted a ponytail from the white wolf's head.

The ponytail was tied with a red ribbon, adding a touch of cuteness to its fierce appearance.

Kyosuke Kosaka looked at the white wolf.

The white wolf gave him a handsome and refined appearance.

Half an hour later.

As Kousaka Kyosuke and Su Chang prepared to leave, the white wolf seemed to know and quickly wagged its tail.

Sensing that the white wolf was watching his hands, Kousaka Kyosuke took out the bow from his spatial storage...

"You want this?"

"Awoo~" The white wolf howled joyfully, its head tilted back.

Kyosuke Kosaka couldn't resist touching the white wolf's tail, which was swaying vigorously and even sweeping away the dust.

"Ouch..."

"I feel like I've been bullied," Su Chang said curiously, peeking her little head over.

The white wolf collapsed, limp and powerless.

Kousaka Kyosuke smiled awkwardly.

"Consider this a small gift."

After saying this, Kousaka Kyosuke placed the bow in front of the white wolf and patted its head.
