Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Page 1530

To put it simply, current historical records state that the Emperor is a descendant of Amaterasu, who was the divine ruler of Takamagahara. Therefore, the Emperor, as a descendant of Amaterasu, is naturally of unparalleled nobility.

It is precisely because of this that the Emperor is able to lead the nobility and commoners and manage the entire country.

According to Kyosuke Kousaka.

Amaterasu initially only acknowledged the legitimacy of the emperor's ancestral power, but gradually other changes occurred.

After all, rumors can become exaggerated and untrue over time, let alone something that happened a long time ago.

"In other words, I, as a human who inherited Amaterasu's power, should be sensible and cooperate in doing something?"

"That's too rude of you. No one would treat a hero who has saved Kyoto so easily these days."

"Don't use the word 'hero,' it's not a good word. Anyway, what's the opinion over there now?"

Kyosuke Kosaka still gets straight to the point when asking about his purpose.

He felt that it was indeed necessary to handle this matter quickly to avoid causing more trouble.

On the other hand, he also hates trouble.

At this time, Kyosuke Kousaka was focusing more on understanding Susanoo's lightning power and Amaterasu's solar fire, and didn't have much time to deal with these trivial matters.

Unfortunately, this point cannot be ignored, so resolving it as soon as possible is the best approach.

"It's pretty much about seeing what your attitude is," Fujiwara Michitsuna said ambiguously.

Kyosuke Kousaka immediately understood.

—Compliance test!

Kyosuke Kousaka, who is very sensitive to this kind of thing, picked it up immediately.

Moreover, Fujiwara no Michitsuna deliberately emphasized the word "attitude," so how could he not understand what was going on?

"I see... What do you think I should do? I'm currently thinking very seriously about the battle, and I don't have much time to think about anything else. After all, I'm not sure if I'll ever be able to come back after this departure."

Kyosuke Kosaka tried to be as subtle as possible in his words.

Fujiwara no Michitsuna in front of him was just a mouthpiece, so all he had to do was say some nice things and get Fujiwara no Michitsuna to pass them on.

As for other obsequious behaviors?

Kousaka Kyosuke can't do it.

He thought to himself, "That's about enough."

If the county is really planning some kind of conspiracy, then I'm sorry, but once everything is settled smoothly, he will settle all accounts before going to the Central Plains to handle matters, in order to avoid any unexpected events in the future.

The Emperor and nobles, just deal with them all directly.

"Although it might seem like I'm ruthless, that's just the kind of person I am..."

Kyosuke Kosaka remained calm, without even the slightest emotional fluctuation.

He was already powerful enough to act with impunity in Japan, but he quite liked the harmonious atmosphere here.

But if the situation gradually changes, then I can only say sorry!

With Kousaka Kyosuke's current strength far surpassing his former abilities, changing the landscape of Japan is merely a matter of a thought for him.

The prerequisite is that these most important and urgent problems must be solved first.

"No, no! It would be enough if you offered to marry a woman from the royal family."

Fujiwara no Michitsuna said quickly.

He vaguely sensed a hint of indifference emanating from Kousaka Kyosuke...

Indifference might not apply to him, but it certainly includes certain people who make Kousaka Kyosuke unhappy.

In the eyes of many nobles, Kyosuke Kousaka is no longer just a top-tier Onmyoji.

Judging solely from Fujiwara no Michitsuna's perspective.

He prefers to refer to Kyosuke Kousaka as a "living god".

Humans and gods.

Literally, it refers to a god who appears in this world in human form.

Although it appears in human form, it is still essentially a god.

"A human so powerful that they can fight against evil gods and stand shoulder to shoulder with the god of execution—are they really human?"

"In my opinion, Kyosuke definitely considers himself human, but others think more than that..."

Fujiwara no Michitsuna thought to himself.

But that's not the most important thing.

Instead, Fujiwara Michitsuna could also sense Kousaka Kyosuke's somewhat undisguised personality.

Whether it was because of the countless life-and-death battles they had gone through, or because it was always like this, Fujiwara no Michitsuna always understood that Kousaka Kyosuke was a very good person.

Therefore, he also didn't want anything unpleasant to happen.

“Hmm… that’s not impossible,” Kousaka Kyosuke said, resting his chin on his hand. “But I’m not familiar with the other princesses, and I don’t have the time or opportunity to contact them. How about Princess Horie from my estate?”

"can!"

Fujiwara no Michitsuna agreed without even thinking.

Even knowing that this well-regarded prince had become a monk, it was no longer appropriate to consider that matter.

Fujiwara Michitsuna never questioned Kousaka Kyosuke's kind nature, but when it came to his temper... Fujiwara Michitsuna really didn't think that Kousaka Kyosuke, who was always smiling, liked to joke, and didn't mind flattering others, would have no temper at all.

On the contrary, Fujiwara no Michitsuna had long ago discovered that Kousaka Kyosuke had a very domineering temper.

It's just that almost no one can touch his heart.

until now.

Kousaka Kyosuke has already revealed methods that are very different from those of other Onmyoji, as if he doesn't want to continue acting.

In addition, some nobles in the court who were wary of Kousaka Kyosuke's power gradually developed fear, even rejection... and more...

Fujiwara no Michitsuna was too lazy to grumble about those dim-witted nobles over the above matters.

He knew that what he should do now, and what he needed to do even faster, was to resolve this matter as soon as possible!

"..."

Kousaka Kyosuke watched Fujiwara Michitsuna leave in a hurry after saying goodbye, as if the fire had spread to the back of the house.

Kagura, who hadn't said a word the whole time, finally spoke up: "Kyosuke, you seemed to be thinking about something special just now."

"It's nothing special, it's just for your own good."

Kyosuke Kousaka reached out and touched Kagura's hair, then chuckled and brushed it off.

He was just thinking about dangerous things.

But this still means there's no action yet?

"Is there no problem with Horie-dono?" Kagura asked about another matter.

Kyosuke Kosaka said, "I can only apologize to her later. I am indeed very guilty for forcibly dragging her out of the Buddhist temple."

Kyosuke Kousaka was serious when he said sorry.

You still have to do it, otherwise marrying a woman whose personality is hard to define as good or bad would be too much of a headache.

Although Fujiwara Michitsuna could have used other methods, what he suggested was indeed a more optimal solution.

Kyosuke Kosaka didn't entirely agree.

I also have my own opinion. As for whether Fujiwara Michitsuna can do it or not, Kousaka Kyosuke doesn't think there's any problem.

Throughout the entire process, the one who suffered an undeserved misfortune was Horie-dono, Tennoji Mirei, whom Kousaka Kyosuke had once known...

"Hopefully there won't be any major problems later on."

Kousaka Kyosuke sighed inwardly, then stopped dwelling on it and decided to continue pondering the power of Susanoo and Amaterasu.

the other side.

Fujiwara no Michitsuna had no choice but to get busy with Kousaka Kyosuke's affairs.

It was clear that Kyosuke Kosaka's suggestion still carried a hint of dissatisfaction, or even a probing tone.

If this matter leads to significant conflict, Fujiwara Michitsuna suspects that Kousaka Kyosuke might do something... terrible.

How awful! I never expected such a rare description to come from my own friend... Sigh.

Day 502 of crossing

Kyosuke Kousaka, who didn't go out all day yesterday, plans to continue doing so today.

Unexpectedly, another visitor arrived.

Fortunately, it wasn't Seimei, but Yaobikuni.

In any case, in Kousaka Kyosuke's mind, Seimei had already become a character who would bring him important tasks.

If it's Yaobikuni, then she's most likely just here for a chat.

That's exactly what happened.
