Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

"What elegance? Masculinity is what matters!"

"hehe."

Yaobikuni couldn't help but laugh.

Minamoto no Hiromasa's face darkened.

Yaobikuni nodded at him with an embarrassed expression, without saying anything more.

She thought to herself, "Is this the kind of manly courage to argue with a fox?"

Of course, inviting Suzuka Gozen is more important right now, so she won't ruin the atmosphere.

"Mr. Seimei really hopes that the siren and the people here at the manor can put aside their differences, but this matter is bound to be difficult for some people to accept. Let's do our best to help them as much as we can."

The secret passage of the Eight Hundred Bhikkhunis.

She was well aware that many people on the manor would not like the siren.

The problem is that this place is relatively polite to siren, so it's most appropriate to try to improve the relationship between us here.

Otherwise, in other places, it wouldn't be surprising if Yaobikuni were to have demons actively fighting for her life.

—The invasion of Suzuka Mountain was not long ago, and to any human or yokai, they were nothing short of a group of terrorists.

The impact of those indiscriminate blood sacrifices was indeed far-reaching.

It is highly unlikely that you can change other people's opinions in a short period of time.

It was precisely because the manor was Kousaka Kyosuke's territory, and the people there completely obeyed and trusted him, that they were able to calmly deal with Suzuka Gozen, the current leader of the siren.

Otherwise, it's not a good thing for hatred to be expressed openly.

No matter how serious the situation is, it's not a good thing.

"I'll leave after I've finished recording the fireworks tonight..."

Suzuka Gozen, who had easily borrowed the recording equipment, quickly responded.

Actually, she knew what was going on in her heart.

However, she didn't think she could resolve the hatred, so all she could think about at that moment was making amends.

The other sea monsters of Suzuka Mountain suffered just as much as Ōtakemaru.

Like Ōtakemaru, they all only wanted to protect the land of Suzuka Mountain. They invaded Kyoto because they heard from Kaiming that the humans in Kyoto had used evil magic to absorb the spiritual power of Suzuka Mountain and wanted to take back everything.

But when they truly realized that they were just an aggressor and a perpetrator, they all felt extremely uncomfortable.

However, telling the victims and their families will only bring more dissatisfaction and resentment.

It would be better to let them prove their remorse through their actions.

“We can record it now. How about we go outside for an interview?” Yaobikuni suggested.

Looking at the lively scene of laughter and joy outside, Suzuka Gozen was tempted and agreed in less than a second.

“The place where I live with my people is being rebuilt day by day, and I hope that one day it can be as lively as it is now, so I want to record it for them to see!”

"That is indeed a very good idea."

Yaobikuni walked out with a smile.

Just as Minamoto no Hiromasa was about to follow, he was met with a sidelong glance from Yaobikuni.

“Mr. Boya, this is an activity that only women can participate in.”

"Oh, is that so? Then I'll go with Seimei too..." Minamoto no Hiromasa didn't seem to mind.

Since Kagura, his younger sister, obviously can't accompany him because of her husband, it's not bad for her to be with her friend Seimei.

Seimei smiled and said, "I've already made plans with Shiro and Fuyuka. If you don't have any plans with anyone else, you might as well join us."

"Don't make it sound like I've been abandoned!"

"Minamoto no Hiromasa called out."

Xiaobai pressed her advantage: "After all, Lord Hiromasa isn't as popular as Lord Seimei or Lord Kyosuke."

Minamoto no Hiromasa glared at Shiro with displeasure.

"What does it matter if someone is popular or not? These are all unimportant things."

After Xiaobai said that, Minamoto no Hiromasa felt extremely uncomfortable.

But he couldn't deny it either.

Seimei was a man whom even he had to admire, and who was also very charming.

As for Kousaka Kyosuke?

As Kagura's husband after all, Minamoto no Hiromasa could only say that he trusted Kagura's judgment.

He declined to comment on the rest...

Well!

In the secluded manor where the experiment was being conducted, Kyosuke Kousaka, sensing a peculiar resentment, raised an eyebrow.

As if guided by some kind of intuition, the name Minamoto no Hiromasa flashed through his mind in an instant.

"It seems that he has gradually adapted to the rules of this world, and his spiritual consciousness has also recovered to a considerable extent."

Kosaka Kyo said heartily.

At my peak, I truly possessed a strong sense of perception. I could keenly detect and easily investigate when others called my name or thought of things related to me.

And now it seems that he has slowly recovered a little bit since coming here.

If it's to the other continent, it should be possible if the world's rules are favorable...

No, this isn't the time to think about that.

Why does my brother-in-law, Minamoto no Hiromasa, suddenly seem to have a problem with me?

But upon closer reflection, Minamoto no Hiromasa had already sentenced him for the "crime" of being a womanizer.

Sorry, he was just too greedy.

Kousaka Kyosuke muttered secretly.

He then continued to do the things that Shizuko and Chitanda had asked him to do.

About half an hour later.

The three of them finally stopped working completely.

"Where do you want to go after the 15-minute break?" Kyosuke Kosaka asked casually, taking a sip of tea.

He's come to terms with it.

Let's wait until tonight to watch the fireworks together.

During the daytime, having Shizuko and Chitanda, these two little angels, is enough.

I feel a little bad for Senhime. I was planning to take her around, but it turns out everyone gets along very well with her.

In that case, let's make it up another time.

Compared to the elegant yet enthusiastic atmosphere on the side of Xiangzi, Fujishikibu, and Sei Shonagon, he could take his time.

The main reason is that Senhime is not familiar with everyone at this time. If she gets to know everyone today, it will be much more harmonious for them to communicate together in the future.

I want to eat barbecue.

"Then everyone will have to hide their identities."

When Kousaka Kyosuke heard Shizuko's suggestion without hesitation, he added his own without much thought.

Shizuko exclaimed in surprise, "Kyosuke-sama, you're not finding fault at all..."

"Although it's strange to eat barbecue before lunchtime, and there are many things to criticize, I can't do anything to spoil the mood right now."

Kyosuke Kosaka paused to drink his tea and began to explain slowly.

Shizuko glanced at Kousaka Kyosuke, then at Chitanda, and noticed that Chitanda was indeed blushing.

"Lord Kyosuke, you did this on purpose, didn't you? 'Taste' and 'refined interest' have very different meanings."

"Yes, yes, I have to correct that."

"Forget it, let's not dwell on this. Let's go get some barbecue!"

Jingzi didn't pay too much attention to Kousaka Kyosuke's "hidden needles".

Anyway, the worst outcome is just bowing deeply in apology, so what's there to be afraid of?

And I was really angry, I don't know who was more agitated, but what can I do when she has such a good temper?

"Is Eru okay with that?" Kyosuke Kousaka asked again.

"Don't make it sound like Eru is accommodating me, Kyosuke-sama! She's made a menu that includes grilled lotus root slices, grilled mushrooms, and grilled eggplant."

"Jing, Jingzi——"

"So Eru unexpectedly likes grilled food?"

Upon hearing Shizuko's words, Kousaka Kyosuke lowered his head and fell into deep thought.
