Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Page 1374

Yui Yuigahama discovers something amazing: whenever she takes a step forward, Kyosuke Kousaka readily takes a step back as well. It's not for any particular reason; he just enjoys chatting and talking, though sometimes the things they say are quite embarrassing.

In general, it's just normal chatting.

Oh, and there's also the situation of taking a step back.

In that situation, Yui Yuigahama noticed that Kyosuke Kousaka wasn't making any moves, but in Yui Yuigahama's eyes, he seemed a bit... distant, which she didn't like.

"A little to the left, a little to the left, yes, that's it!"

A familiar yet strangely accented voice suddenly rang out, growing louder and louder.

Yui Yuigahama was slowly moving closer to the voice.

Her cheeks immediately flushed red.

Is he massaging my back?

Yui Yuigahama didn't misunderstand.

She had witnessed other people in the bedroom giving Kousaka Kyosuke back massages and spinal manipulations before.

Arrived at the location.

Yui Yuigahama discovers that it is Kagura who is massaging Kyosuke Kousaka's spine, which is not unexpected for her.

Yukino didn't even show the slightest surprise.

"Lord Kyosuke, Lady Kagura, we need to start counting the corn again."

“Okay, I’ll try my best not to bother you,” Kousaka Kyosuke said.

Yui Yuigahama quickly said, "Kyosuke-sama, please feel free to do as you please..."

random?

When Kyosuke Kosaka saw Yui Yuigahama's delicate appearance, he wanted to tease her a little, but seeing that Yukino had a blank expression, he had to give up for the time being.

When working, Yukino is even more serious than usual.

Kyosuke Kosaka shouldn't cause trouble.

"Yukino is beautiful even when she's working; you should really appreciate it."

Now, all that's left is to welcome our guests.

Seeing some beautiful scenery can make you more motivated at work.

"..."

It's strange that Yui Yuigahama started helping to fill in the gaps.

During the work session, Kyosuke Kosaka quietly watched Yukino, while Yukino worked naturally and calmly.

The two of them really have great chemistry!

"Come on, it's time for a change."

Suddenly, a soft voice caught Yui Yuigahama's attention.

Then he realized that Kousaka Kyosuke was already giving Kagura, who was resting her head on his lap, a massage.

"Yes, Kyosuke-sama will give the same feedback as when he helps you scrub your back."

The thought of rubbing her back made Yui Yuigahama's cheeks flush.

She hasn't yet.

If I helped, wouldn't that mean...?

Skip over Yui Yuigahama's various thoughts.

Yukino continued her work methodically while also thinking about other things.

"About two-thirds of the corn will be taken away by the Genji, and half of the remaining one-third will be given to the Kamo clan."

"That means one-sixth of the corn will be used as seed and planted again. I wonder if we can harvest it before winter?"

"War is likely to break out in the fall and winter, so a lot of cold-weather gear will be needed. Fortunately, there are many paper mulberry trees planted."

"However, if the paper garments to be made have a certain degree of water resistance and durability, special processing is required, which requires many steps and manpower. How can we effectively utilize the existing labor force...?"

Yukino is very talented and works very efficiently while multitasking.

Ever since hearing Kousaka Kyosuke's confirmation of the war's outcome, she felt it was essential for her to exert her influence.

Even just a little bit would be fine.

Therefore, things that were previously only slightly noticed are now being digested and absorbed at an extremely rapid pace.

Yukino believes that only by having the most specific understanding of the manor can she better exert her power.

"Alright, the quantity is correct. Yui, is there anything you need to add?"

"No, it's very accurate."

Yui Yuigahama carefully inspected the corn pile that Yukino had just checked before replying.

Despite her wandering thoughts, she did not forget her responsibilities.

"Then Kyosuke-sama..."

"Don't rush into business. Let Kagura show you around the rest of the manor more carefully. I also need to go out to meet the Genji people."

Kousaka Kyosuke smiled and raised his hand to collect all the corn into his spatial storage.

“…Okay.” Yukino met Kousaka Kyosuke’s smiling gaze and nodded gently.

At that moment, Kagura's face next to Kousaka Kyosuke was as rosy and adorable as a ripe apple.

Seeing Kagura's dazed look, Yukino tried her best not to let her expression show any signs of twitching.

"Then I'll leave the rest to Lady Kagura."

"Thank you for your trouble, Lady Kagura."

"it does not matter."

"I'm leaving."

Kyosuke Kousaka patted Kagura's hair again before reluctantly leaving.

The girl's longing was visibly strong.

How could a normal man like Kyosuke Kousaka not be moved?

Lolicon (a person who is obsessed with young girls).

Yukino finally uttered a sentence silently in her heart.

After walking quite a distance, Kyosuke Kousaka felt a pang in his heart and silently turned back.

With heightened perception, sudden, fleeting emotions are more easily stirred.

However, there are downsides, especially for couples bound by fate...

"I'm not a lolicon, what can I do if Kagura just looks so young?"

She murmured to herself.

Kyosuke Kousaka decided to pretend he couldn't hear Yukino's words.

Yukino is just jealous. He'll make it up to her later. That's all.

"..."

Yukino, who had been paying attention to Kousaka Kyosuke, suddenly became uneasy.

Was I too cold just now?

But that's how it usually is.

Kagura, who had noticed Kousaka Kyosuke and Yukino's unusual behavior, pondered for a moment before speaking.

“Yukino, Kyosuke has a very keen sense of perception. He often pretends not to notice.”

"—?!"

An earthquake occurred in Yukino's pupils.

In an instant, I remembered the thought that had flashed through my mind for some reason.

Did they find out I was telling my true feelings?!

"Lady Kagura, may I ask to what extent Lord Kyosuke can sense it?"

"I don't know, and there's really no need to figure it out. If you and Kyosuke can be of one heart and mind, Yukino, you probably wouldn't mind, right?"

"……Yes."

Yukino's anxiety quickly disappeared, and a faint smile appeared on her face.

She believed that their relationship wouldn't be affected by boredom in any way.

To be honest, she was really being incredibly nonsensical just now.

They still view the world through a modern lens.

"I never imagined that my way of thinking was so flawed. The bond between Kyosuke-sama and Lady Kagura cannot be nitpicked about based on their age."
