Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

“There’s no need for that. I am already Lord Kyosuke’s person. Please bestow a name upon me.”

"...Put your clothes on first."

With his eyes closed, Kyosuke Kousaka walked out by instinct.

To be honest, he couldn't understand what the suddenly appearing monster was doing.

I was already surprised to encounter the mirror automatically binding issue.

Then came the storyline where the beautiful girl directly recognized him as her master.

This is inevitably a bit melodramatic.

Kousaka Kyosuke needs to calm down.

Stepping outside the room, he pondered the whole story.

"My purpose in coming here has changed from finding the Zashiki-warashi and resolving the hidden dangers in the mansion to obtaining the mirror to increase my strength."

"So, my current goal is to get the mirror. As for this extra monster, it also has some control over the mirror..."

"So I need to communicate with her carefully and try to get full access to the mirror?"

Kyosuke Kosaka unconsciously rubbed his chin.

Immediately, some of those thoughts were discarded.

Because he could sense that the mirror's level hadn't reached its limit yet.

If the Cloud Mirror is a divine artifact, then this mirror is at least a few levels below.

There is a tiny bit of comparability.

But it should be strengthened to the level of a cloud-like mirror.

In terms of potential, there is still a considerable possibility.

"Kyosuke, you can come in now."

Menreiki came out and called for Kousaka Kyosuke to come in.

"it is good."

Kyosuke Kosaka re-entered the room.

Even after careful tidying, the room, which was filled with a bunch of dolls, still only had a little space.

It's roughly where we eat.

"Lord Kyosuke, please bestow a name upon me."

Dressed in a gorgeous kimono, the exquisitely beautiful girls around her, who resembled dolls, spoke up to offer a reminder.

Her bright green eyes were fixed intently on Kyosuke Kousaka.

Kyosuke Kosaka paused for a moment, but tried his best not to show his emotions.

Oh no, I forgot to think about that.

"How about the lotus?"

"..."

The girl silently lowered her head and crossed her arms over herself.

Is this a sign of autism?

Or are you injured?

Why does it seem more like he's protecting himself?

"Lotus! What about Lotus?"

Kyosuke Kosaka probably guessed that the girl thought he had chosen a name too casually.

But how to say it?

His first impression of the girl was of a lotus flower...—he had thought about it seriously!

"Thank you, Kyosuke-sama, for bestowing upon me a name."

The girl, whose name was officially changed to Lotus, raised her head.

Despite his seemingly indifferent gaze, Kousaka Kyosuke could almost see a soft smile in it.

"Then let's get ready to eat. By the way, you should be able to eat now, right?"

"..."

Lianhua immediately fell silent.

Half a day passed.

She then spoke softly.

"Kyosuke-sama. Even I can talk, breathe, eat, and sleep. I can even fall in love. But I can't excrete, so don't get me wrong."

"—I've got it! Absolutely!"

Kyosuke Kosaka answered quickly, his tone very certain.

It's still not good.

This monster that inexplicably recognizes itself as its master is so strange!

"I guess I was careless with my words. I suspect that Lianhua is just as sensitive as Menreiki was back then, and is afraid of being treated differently."

Menreiki couldn't help but interject, "Kyosuke, me too."

"Okay, I got it! Absolutely!"

Kyosuke Kosaka responded exceptionally quickly.

He is successful in all endeavors.

He is a professional!

Fortunately, the Zashiki-warashi was well-behaved and very quiet.

After that.

The group dined together, and nothing unusual happened during the meal.

At least Kyosuke Kousaka breathed a sigh of relief.

After a brief encounter, he gained a basic understanding of Lianhua's personality.

She's a bit sharp-tongued, but seems somewhat dependent on others—well, Kousaka Kyosuke noticed that Renka's gaze almost never left him.

Even if it's hard for others to notice, how could Kyosuke Kousaka, who often secretly observes people, not know?

"Now that you, Lotus, have been born, I can leave in peace."

After finishing their meal, the Zashiki-warashi, who hadn't said much to Renka, took the initiative to say goodbye.

Lianhua said, "Won't you stay a little longer?"

"No, I'm planning to go home and visit..."

"Then I'll see you off."

"No need. You should have a good talk with Lord Kyosuke and Menreiki."

The Zashiki-warashi covered her mouth as if trying to suppress a laugh, then silently nodded to Kousaka Kyosuke and Menreiki before leaving.

For a moment, Kousaka Kyosuke was at a loss for words, his heart filled with mixed emotions.

It seems that Zashiki-warashi's mental age far exceeds her apparent age.

"Lord Kyosuke, I seem to be newly born and cannot stray too far from here..."

After watching the Zashiki-warashi leave, Renka spoke about her situation.

"That's it."

Kyosuke Kosaka murmured, suddenly realizing that there would probably be one more person writing to him in the future.

However, this girl should be a special exception, since she only writes letters to her partner.

346. Reconstruction of the Noble District / So Thoughtful / The Songstress Relocates

Day 439 of crossing

Early on, Kyosuke Kosaka went alone to talk to Michitsuna Fujiwara about the situation in Kyoto these days.

After finishing his business, he returned to his residence.

Seeing that Su Yi and Su Chang had not left, they decided to gather everyone together.

Meeting —

"I'm here to ask if you have any relatives who are struggling to make ends meet?"

"Lord Kyosuke, it would be better if you clarified the situation a little."
