Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Therefore, it's not unreasonable that the God of Fate dislikes monotony.

"It's good enough to have food to eat. If you encounter someone like Ieyasu, you can only eat rice."

Kasumigaoka is not attached to matters of the heart.

Of course, she didn't mean to treat it casually or perfunctorily.

eat.

You can taste the flavor of the food.

This is what makes Kasumigaoka realize that it is still "alive".

She is living in a different form now, not dead.

Thinking of all this, Kasumigaoka couldn't help but look at Kousaka Kyosuke, who seemed to notice her and smiled back at her.

Kasumigaoka calmly turned her head slightly, her gaze drifting...

Uh.

Kyosuke Kousaka thought to himself, "Is he shy?"

He didn't dwell on what he couldn't understand; he decided to cook first.

It's still an hour before noon.

We ate a bit too early.

"Let's appease the Goddess of Fate first, and then continue to inquire about the Snow Region."

Kousaka Kyosuke secretly thought.

Soon, all sorts of large fish and meat dishes began to be prepared...

The God of Fate, who had been watching from the sidelines, clicked his tongue in amazement: "Kyosuke, you really are a remarkable granary."

They have all kinds of food, I really want to tie it to my body!

"Just bring some food with you, don't treat me like some strange tool."

Kyosuke Kousaka began his first rant of the day.

Kasumigaoka chuckled: "Actually, I've always had this thought."

Kyosuke Kosaka nodded: "It's my honor."

"Hey, hey, hey, don't try to target me! Let me tell you, I control all the intelligence in the Snowfield!"

"The God of Marriage is already a deity with quite remarkable abilities."

"Hmph~ It's no use mocking me~ I'm about to become a heartless goddess."

The God of Fate crossed his arms and raised his head.

It's obvious they're trying to push their luck and get Kyosuke Kousaka to continue trying to please them.

is it possible?

Kyosuke Kousaka decides to use a special method—to ask Kasumigaoka for help!

However, before Kyosuke Kousaka could do that, Kasumigaoka had already begun to take action.

"Lord of the Bonds, it's time to eat."

"Oh right, let's eat! Kinara and Tsuki haven't arrived yet, right?"

"I'll go get them."

Kagura said that she used to invite people to dinner at the Tsukijin Shrine next door.

Kyosuke Kosaka said, "We went together. We ate a little early today, so I should explain why."

"Just one explanation will suffice; it's very simple. In the past, Kyosuke, you would only have received a few more words of criticism from Oitsuki."

"It feels good this way too."

"It's not too late to tell Zhuiyue after we finish eating."

After Kagura finished speaking, she left with soft footsteps.

The young woman remained as quiet and elegant as ever.

It's especially fun to tease them.

No, no, now is not the time to think about that.

What should I say at this point?

"By the way, how's the corn going over there?"

Unexpectedly, the God of Fate spoke first.

Kyosuke Kousaka replied, "Once they mature, most of the seeds will be given to Genji."

"Ah, that Minamoto no Yorimitsu."

The expression on the face of the god of marriage was unusually subtle, indescribably subtle.

What is your opinion on Minamoto no Yorimitsu?

Despite his confusion, Kyosuke Kousaka answered without hesitation:

"Because the promotion by the imperial court is more effective than private promotion, but it is very likely that it will not benefit the common people first as you wish."

"Hmm..." Enmusubi pondered for a moment, then looked at Kasumigaoka, "Utaha, what are you thinking?"

Kasumigaoka said, "Kyosuke-sama's approach is not wrong. I have been observing the village and found that people actually prefer to grow crops such as beans and millet, and don't really like sorghum."

"Huh? Didn't I already say that, given the fertility of the soil over there, only growing millet can fill our stomachs?"

"This is not something that can be persuaded with just a few words. The same principle applies to corn—ordinary people feel bewildered or even fearful when it comes to new things. Lord Enmusubi, you must understand this deeply, right?"

"Uh, I suddenly remembered that when I traveled to some villages before, the attitude of the villagers really made me clench my fists."

The God of Fate sighed.

Kyosuke Kosaka and Kasumigaoka silently watched as she clenched her little fists.

“Alright,” Enmusubi quickly came to her senses and looked at Kousaka Kyosuke. “I think I understand now just how difficult it is to promote corn. It’s best left to you nobles to handle it.”

"You should praise Genji more in this regard. I can't be of much help with the corn issue right now."

"Who said that? As long as you switch your farm's staple food to corn, I guarantee that all the humans and monsters in the surrounding area will start planting it!"

"This matter is not that simple."

Kyosuke Kosaka did not say anything more about it.

You can't say, "We still need to grow a considerable amount of rice to preserve value, and incidentally provide it to the rentiers on the estates."

Things are too realistic; it's best to say less.

"Eat breakfast so early!"

A joyful cheer came from the doorway.

When Kousaka Kyosuke looked, sure enough, he saw Kinara flapping its little wings vigorously on its head.

Behind her followed Kagura and a rabbit-eared woman, namely Tsuki-no-Kami.

When Kyosuke Kosaka met the Moon Goddess, he subconsciously and secretly observed her ears.

I noticed a pair of light pink rabbit ears, one half-folded up and the other slightly curved and drooping down naturally.

It seems that the Moon Chaser is in a good mood today.

"Hehe~ This is an apology meal~"

The triumphant voice of the God of Fate rang out.

Kyosuke Kosaka smiled and raised his hand to remove the protective barrier on the surface of each dish, which served to insulate against heat and mask odors.

Let’s eat!

Time flies...

By noon, everyone had finished eating some time ago.

Kinnara and Tsukuyomi have also officially joined the team exchanging information about the snowy region.

"Over there in the snowy area north of the Ōeyama Ghost Domain? There's actually a village living there? Hmm, I'm absolutely certain that they have divine protection there!"

Upon hearing the news, the Moon Chaser spoke with absolute certainty.

Enmusubi coughed dryly: "It is indeed more complicated over there."

Both people and land possess...divine power.

No wonder crops can still be grown in such cold weather, and no wonder everyone has the ability to withstand extreme cold.

What is going on?

The Goddess of Fate still doesn't understand it; it's too complicated and troublesome, and she doesn't want to think about it.

In short, aren't we doing just fine right now?

Just live from day to day.
