Because the magic could not create distance all at once, the only option was to use all one's strength to completely obliterate the ghost hand.

Ibaraki-dōji finally closed the distance to Kōsaka Kyōsuke enough for close combat.

"bring it on!"

"I'll come!" Kyosuke Kousaka didn't refuse this time either.

He simply summoned a sword from his magical space and engaged Ibaraki-doji in close combat.

He thought about it.

If this drags on, Ibaraki-dōji's impression of him will worsen.

It will be very inconvenient to ask this person for help in the future.

It's better to fight like a real man.

After all, he is an important plot device in the future storyline, so not only can he not die, but he also has to protect Kyoto well for him!

Kosaka Kyosuke believes it very much.

If these powerful monsters don't help according to the original storyline in the future, they will be the ones who collapse from exhaustion in the end!

"Hahaha...good!"

Ibaraki-dōji laughed loudly, suddenly raising his one hand and then slamming it down.

The pure and astonishing demonic power exploded out in an instant.

Kousaka Kyosuke, who was only a few steps away from Ibaraki-dōji, smiled and swung his sword.

The sound of blades roared like thunder!

The dazzling blade flashed like the blazing sun, slicing through the air in an instant.

The endless, sharp, whistling sound of the air being torn apart continued...

Boom! !

A tremendous sonic boom erupted from the area centered on Kyosuke Kousaka and Ibaraki-dōji.

The sudden surge of air completely drowned out all other sounds.

The force of the explosion spread to the surrounding area, and the resulting dust and smoke drifted and filled the sky and earth.

"Come again!"

"……Um?"

Amidst the billowing smoke and dust, Kousaka Kyosuke discovered that Ibaraki-dōji's white hair had turned red.

With a slight change in expression, streaks of sword light instantly swirled around him like air currents, his long robes fluttered, and his black hair flew wildly.

An extreme sharpness rose higher and higher, as if ascending to the heavens...

"Onmyoji, I'll show you my true power, descend now!"

His entire body surged with demonic power!

Inside the semi-transparent dome that seemed capable of deflecting any attack.

With an arrogant laugh, Ibaraki-dōji crouched down and stabbed the ground hard with his hand.

Familiar picture.

A familiar scene.

Without a second thought, Kyosuke Kosaka leaped into the air and immediately launched an attack!

The feeling of being locked in made him realize that simply retreating wouldn't be enough.

The next instant, a gigantic, sinister, purplish-black ghostly hand emerged from the ground, causing the earth to tremble...

"cut!"

Kyosuke Kosaka uttered a low, cold sound.

With the shout, a surge of powerful energy vibrated throughout his body!

The surging spiritual energy, like a flowing river, rushed into every tiny part of his body!

Kyosuke Kousaka felt an intense heat, as if his entire body was surrounded by faint flames, like a furnace...

The dazzling, colorless sharpness transformed inch by inch into a color even redder than flames as the slash landed.

boom! !

The earth shook violently, as if millions of earth dragons were turning over.

The surging air currents roared, and giant dragons of earth and stone flew about wildly...

Rumble, rumble——

"Oh no, there's an earthquake..."

A childlike, charming voice rang out.

Fujiwara Kaori glanced at her niece, with whom she had no idea how distant a blood relation she was, and said nothing.

A feeling of unease welled up inside me.

Kyoto is not immune to earthquakes.

It's just that the probability of it happening is relatively low.

At this point, Fujiwara Kaori already knew from her aunt that Kousaka Kyosuke had met a Genji who was looking for him and then left.

Therefore, it's hard not to make associations.

For example, why was there an earthquake not long after Kyosuke Kosaka left?

"Xiangzi, it seems you've adapted well to life in this era."

Aunt Fujiwara Manho said softly.

With a face almost identical to her daughter, Fujiwara Chika, her mature demeanor makes one realize her advanced age.

Today, thanks to the arrival of my "adopted daughter" and a highly sought-after hero from Kyoto.

She even spent most of the day getting ready.

Her already beautiful face became even more exquisite and radiant with the addition of a touch of makeup!

He was wearing a red-fronted, blue-lined formal dress with a white-fronted, blue-lined shirt underneath.

The colors are perfectly coordinated, creating a fresh and vibrant feel.

They were dressed very lavishly.

Her daughter, Qianhua, was no less remarkable.

Her fair, rosy cheeks showed a touch of childishness and innocence.

The color of her large eyes evokes images of the vast sky and sea.

It gives people a refreshing yet cheerful and pleasant impression.

She was wearing a white jacket over a soft, light purple coat.

Her attire was not extravagant, but she possessed a delicate and charming beauty.

"It's alright, Auntie."

Xiangzi glanced casually at the mother and daughter's very formal attire and gave a perfunctory answer.

She never expected that today's "family reunion" would be so dramatic.

His distant uncles, aunts, and sisters, who were related to him by blood, all came over.

Although I was somewhat surprised, it was nothing special.

At the same time, there was some resistance to this matter.

Come when she wants to.

Recognizing relatives is at most just a formality.

The extra female companion can also be properly cared for.

The cousin in front of her, whom she had known since childhood but who had "gone astray," was the one she least wanted to accept.

Because that unrestrained imagination and mischievousness could only make Xiangzi feel annoyed.

After all, Kyosuke Kosaka was very good to her.

He was willing to tell her everything and entrust her with the management of his assets.

Therefore, she had complete control over the mansion.

Even if a noblewoman were to challenge her in the future, she would not back down at all.

Fujiwara Chika is different.

Fujiwara Kaori felt like she was out of control.
