Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

"For humans, defeating an ancient evil god like Yamata no Orochi is undoubtedly wishful thinking. However, after the battle at Suzuka Mountain, I also feel that some forces cannot be ignored..."

Minamoto no Yorimitsu smiled and continued speaking.

Minamoto no Hiromasa retorted, "Are you going to try to achieve 'justice' by sacrificing others again?"

Kyosuke Kosaka coughed, interrupting Hiromasa Minamoto's continued speech.

"Boya, we shouldn't worry too much about these things. The evil god's target is very likely all existence in the world, probably even the so-called underworld. So all we can do is resist."

"'We' doesn't just refer to ourselves, but also to any being we can win over. After all, only in this way can our power be further enhanced. Even if this power is still insignificant in the face of an evil god..."

It seems that Minamoto no Yorimitsu also supported cooperation with yokai.

As a result, humans and monsters will be in a honeymoon period from now until the end of the world-ending crisis.

Ultimately, Minamoto no Yorimitsu can be said to be the spokesperson representing Kyoto, or even, to exaggerate, the power of all humanity in the region.

It's safe to say that there will be no objections to anything he approves of.

On the one hand, Minamoto no Yorimitsu represented the imperial family, whose power was still centralized, so no one would dare to cause trouble for him.

on the other hand.

Minamoto no Yorimitsu was originally a representative figure in the military field of the imperial court.

Both his command and combat abilities and his personal strength were recognized by the royal family and nobles.

Well, there is one advantage to the court – no one will give arbitrary orders or cause trouble.

"Boya Yan, it's useless if you don't agree with my 'justice,' because we're all in the same boat now."

Who's on your side?

"Isn't that right? Don't you intend to join the human army I'm uniting?"

Minamoto no Yorimitsu watched with a smile as Minamoto no Hiromasa gritted his teeth.

Kyosuke Kousaka was speechless.

He could almost feel that his brother-in-law, Minamoto no Hiromasa, was so angry that his blood pressure was so high.

The problem is, Minamoto no Yorimitsu wasn't wrong at all.

"Because of Kagura's situation, Hiromasa has absolutely no positive feelings towards Raikou. And from my perspective as Kagura's husband, it's also a delicate matter..."

Kousaka Kyosuke is in a strange mood.

how to say?

After Kagura gradually regained her memories, she also told Kousaka Kyosuke that she had volunteered to sacrifice herself.

In response, Kyosuke Kosaka simply corrected her, telling her never to do such a foolish thing again.

And then the matter was never mentioned again.

Ultimately, the incident occurred before Kyosuke Kousaka met Kagura, and since Kagura sacrificed herself willingly, Kyosuke Kousaka couldn't act recklessly because of that.

It would be more appropriate to make the decision to "absolutely prevent Kagura from getting hurt again and make Kagura happy".

As for why Minamoto no Hiromasa was angry?

Kousaka Kyosuke couldn't very well tell him not to be angry because of his sister Kagura.

Otherwise, we wouldn't even know which side we're on.

"How about you two just have a fight?" Kousaka Kyosuke thought for a moment and made a suggestion that seemed pretty good.

Minamoto no Yorimitsu smiled: "I happen to have some time."

Minamoto no Hiromasa clenched his fist and suddenly smiled: "Coincidentally, I also have plenty of time!"

Kyosuke Kosaka thought to himself, "Letting Hiromasa fight should calm him down."

We cannot allow too many conflicts to remain on the surface at present.

Otherwise, some troubles that shouldn't have happened might arise.

then.

The three of them went out the door, preparing to go to a suitable place for sparring and fighting.

During this time, Kousaka Kyosuke casually inquired about Minamoto no Yorimitsu's plans to return to Kyoto, and his assessment of the future situation became increasingly clear.

However, Kyosuke Kosaka actually realized that he had forgotten a small detail.

For example, a clear, childlike, and ethereal voice suddenly came from inside.

Such a sweet voice came from a girl with short hair adorned with an adorable goldfish headband.

Kagura.

"Kyosuke, Hiromasa-nii, Raikou-nii."

"..."

Kyosuke Kosaka opened his mouth to respond, but found that his body seemed to have become stiff.

His mouth seemed to have stiffened as well.

"...Kagura."

"It's Kagura."

Minamoto no Hiromasa seemed as stiff as Kousaka Kyosuke, even his greetings were somewhat unnatural, while Minamoto no Yorimitsu remained calm and composed.

Kyosuke Kosaka felt that he needed to learn from Minamoto no Yorimitsu.

What are you all going there for?

"Oh, I think I forgot to bring some things—"

Kyosuke Kosaka turned to leave, but found a small hand grabbing his sleeve.

At this moment, Minamoto no Yorimitsu said, "Hiromasa said he wanted to have a friendly spar with me, and I thought it would be a rare and interesting opportunity, so I naturally agreed."

“Brother Boya”.

Kagura stared at Minamoto no Hiromasa with a blank expression.

"Haha, haha..." Minamoto no Hiromasa chuckled dryly, wanting to say something about how handsome he was, but in the end, he didn't say anything at all.

I guess he didn't know how to respond for a moment?

Kosaka Kyosuke sympathizes with Minamoto Boya's experience.

Suddenly, he felt that the treatment he was about to receive might not be so good.

In fact, it is true.

Minamoto no Yorimitsu slipped away like a hateful pigeon.

Kyosuke Kousaka and Hiromasa Minamoto were forced to confront Kagura's expressionless face together...

"It's all my fault!" Minamoto no Hiromasa took full responsibility.

Kyosuke Kosaka immediately said, "No, this is my suggestion."

While he was grateful for Minamoto no Hiromasa's manly actions, he still couldn't bring himself to deceive Kagura.

Kagura suddenly sighed.

"Don't make things difficult for Brother Laiguang like that anymore. He's lonely too."

"How could he be lonely—ah, yes, yes..."

Minamoto no Hiromasa, who instinctively wanted to refute, wisely corrected his offhand remark.

Kyosuke Kosaka nodded solemnly in agreement.

In his mind, he was thinking, "Can't Raikou just use Onikiri?"

When he practiced archery in the morning, he heard from Minamoto no Yorimitsu that Onikiri had been traveling with Minamoto no Yorimitsu all along.

Onikiri even claimed that he wanted to supervise Minamoto no Yorimitsu's behavior.

Upon hearing this, Kyosuke Kosaka felt a slight chill run down his spine.

“Then, Hiromasa, tell me about what happened in the land of the Celestials,” Kousaka Kyosuke chuckled and looked at Kagura. “Minamoto no Hiromasa hasn’t told me the specifics of what happened before.”

Kagura nodded obediently: "I'll pour you some tea now."

Obvious.

Kagura is not a girl who gets angry easily.

To be precise, Kyosuke Kosaka had never actually seen Kagura angry.

"I really want to hug Kagura."

Kousaka Kyosuke secretly thought.

Considering that his brother-in-law, Minamoto no Hiromasa, was still alive, he reluctantly gave up the decision.

Afterwards, he and Kagura listened quietly to Minamoto no Hiromasa's experiences over the past few days.

Half an hour passed.

After finishing his business and exchanging a few more words with Kagura, Minamoto no Hiromasa took his leave.
