Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Page 1423

In terms of logistics, he provided various agricultural knowledge and high-quality fixed seeds, and Fujiwara no Michitsuna and others would take care of the follow-up problems, so he didn't need to worry too much.

In terms of combat... especially head-on battles, Kousaka Kyosuke believes that this is what needs to be taken seriously.

"I'm afraid you'll be disappointed. The snake demons that have appeared these days have all been dealt with by me, Seimei, Yaobikuni, and the Onmyoji from Yorozuya. Now we're just waiting for the Yamata no Orochi to appear."

Then Minamoto no Hiromasa began to explain the current situation.

Kyosuke Kosaka chuckled, "I never expected to come and help when everyone is at their most relaxed."

"Lord Kyosuke, why don't you rest for a while longer?" Shiro suggested.

Kyosuke Kousaka felt somewhat helpless.

"You don't know, I just boldly told Yaobikuni that I would handle all kinds of affairs in her place, but I went back without doing anything. Isn't that a bit embarrassing?"

Minamoto no Hiromasa smirked: "Kyosuke, don't you think Yaobikuni is just watching the show? How could she not know that these past few days have been a period with almost nothing to deal with?"

Kyosuke Kosaka: "I did think of that, so I figured I should do something worth mentioning before I went back."

"Going out of nowhere to cause trouble?" Seimei revealed a sly smile. "Kyosuke, do you think this won't make Yaobikuni laugh at you?"

"She is a truly sinful woman."

"Xiaobai thinks that Lady Yaobikuni would be very happy to receive such a compliment."

Xiaobai started complaining again.

Kyosuke Kosaka said he couldn't refute it.

He probably didn't know what to say and wanted to help, but nothing came of it.

It was just a little joke, but it didn't feel right if he didn't take it seriously.

Shouldn't we at least retaliate?

Since Yaobikuni was still a "patient" who needed psychological treatment, Kyosuke Kosaka let her go.

Next, Kousaka Kyosuke bid farewell to Seimei, Minamoto no Hiromasa, and the others, and began to explore the surrounding area in the suburbs.

Concealing his presence to save people and monsters who happen to be in danger, dispelling miasma, guiding people and monsters... wait, what is he doing?

In the end, Kyosuke Kosaka went to the Oitsuki Shrine somewhat exhausted. He chatted with Oitsuki for quite a while before heading to the Enmusubi Shrine. He needed to take advantage of this free time to meet Kasumigaoka, with whom he had only recently begun to establish a relationship.

Upon arriving at the entrance of the Enmusubi Shrine, Kyosuke Kousaka first encountered a woman wearing a golden crown and gorgeous attire.

The woman smiled gracefully when she saw Kyosuke Kosaka.

"Sir, you've also come to this shrine where prayers are most effective?"

Kyosuke Kosaka's face darkened: "...You don't actually think I won't recognize you just because you changed your clothes, do you?"

412. Enmusubi God Transformation / Kasumigaoka's Concern / Tamamo-no-Mae's Visit?

"You are--"

The woman in the gorgeous clothes looked surprised and puzzled.

Kousaka Kyousuke had a blank expression on his face.

"You still have a red hair tie, and the only change in your appearance is that you look a little older."

"What do you mean by 'older'? I'm forever young and beautiful!"

The familiar self-designation undoubtedly reveals the identity of a certain god.

That's right, the woman that Kyosuke Kousaka met at the shrine entrance was none other than the goddess of predestined union.

This deity thought that by changing his clothes and making minor adjustments to his appearance, he could be unrecognizable. No matter how you look at it, it's a very "wise" move.

Kyosuke Kousaka was utterly speechless.

"Get to the point. How did you suddenly become like this?"

"Because I just dealt with an important matter outside. No, wait, I don't need to explain anything to you."

"Okay, I was just being nosy."

"Ahem, I suddenly realized that this is also because you care about me, so I feel I should tell you."

"No need."

Seeing that the Goddess of Fate seemed about to reveal her true colors, Kyosuke Kousaka immediately refused.

Oh no!

A bright light flashed.

In the blink of an eye, the Goddess of Fate returned to her usual attire.

To sum it up in one sentence: "She's gone back to being a country bumpkin."

"Phew~ My divine power is almost gone, and you've seen me naked. It's time to lend a hand."

The Goddess of Fate, now back to normal, let out a sigh of relief and looked at Kyosuke Kousaka with a relieved and relaxed expression.

Kyosuke Kosaka tilted his head and glanced at Enmusubi with disdain in his eyes.

"I say, why do you make asking for a favor sound so refined and elegant?"

“I didn’t say anything wrong!” the God of Fate retorted.

Kousaka Kyosuke felt a slight stirring in his heart, and the scene of Enmusubi staying overnight in Kyoto inexplicably flashed through his mind.

In an instant, countless alpacas galloped through his mind. He suddenly wanted to deny something, but he felt that no matter what he said, he would probably end up helping the God of Fate, so he simply stopped talking.

However, Enmusubi, who noticed the subtle change in Kousaka Kyosuke's expression, suddenly changed his look, now giving him the gaze of someone looking at a pervert.

"So you actually watched it?!"

He's had so many adorable wives of different types, I never thought he'd set his sights on her too?

It seems Kinnara is in danger; we need to hurry and advise her to be careful!

It can only be blamed on her excessive charm causing this trouble.

Boom!Boom!Boom!

Crisp sound.

"It hurts! It hurts! Help!"

The spirit of fate, whose mind was racing with thoughts, immediately covered his head and instinctively tried to move away.

Unfortunately, Kyosuke Kosaka had already considered this matter carefully and helped very considerately.

"Lord of the Goddess of Bondage, what's wrong with you—Kyosuke-sama?"

Kasumigaoka, who had come out of the shrine after hearing the noise outside, was about to ask something when he saw Kousaka Kyosuke with one hand on the shoulder of the goddess Enmusubi and the other hand forming a chopstick, repeatedly striking the goddess's head...

It's obvious without even trying that the God of Fate has caused trouble again.

"Shiha." Kousaka Kyosuke smiled and nodded to the newly appeared Kasumigaoka, while simultaneously raising his hand in a chop motion, transforming it into a weapon to cover the mouth of a certain god.

"I apologize for my rudeness, Lord Kyosuke. Lady Enmusubi has troubled you again today."

"No, that's not true. Lord Enmusubi is as energetic as ever today."

The two greeted each other naturally.

The situation is like a mother disciplining a disobedient child.

Kyosuke Kousaka almost burst out laughing when he thought of this scene.

"Speaking of which, has something happened here?"

Kousaka Kyosuke didn't bother with pleasantries and went straight to the point, asking about the matter.

Since the god knew that the goddess had "transformed" and asked for help, he understood that there must be something she needed his assistance with.

Given that he didn't know the details or the urgency of the situation, Kyosuke Kosaka thought it best not to delay.

Finish it as soon as possible, so I can spend more time with Kasumigaoka sooner.

Yes, since you're doing nothing, don't worry about so much. Go on another date with your partner whom you haven't been communicating with much, or do something to nurture your relationship.

As for Yaobikuni?

Kyosuke Kousaka was prepared to be ridiculed.

Kasumigaoka: "It's about Irukenshi. Do you know this youkai?"

“Yes, I have heard about his dealings with the Lord of the Underworld.”

Enter the frugal teacher.

Their whereabouts are uncertain, but they have been quietly disposing of the corpses of people and demons who died in the wild.

Kyosuke Kosaka saw this monster doing the work of disposing of corpses on many occasions.

If I'm not mistaken, just like the ghost messengers of the underworld, the mortals also perform hard labor in the underworld.

"Due to the pervasive miasma, the coffin of the 'Irukenshi' was partially corroded, and his lover inside the coffin was also affected. Therefore, he sought help from the God of Fate."

Kasumigaoka explained the whole story in concise language.
