Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Since that's the case, Kyosuke Kosaka doesn't mind letting them learn about things through safe channels.

This way, you can think about things more comprehensively.

Suddenly I noticed that I was almost at Luocheng Gate, and my first destination was fast approaching.

Kyosuke Kosaka couldn't help but ask.

"Menreiki, are you really not coming to play with us?"

"No, I'm worried because I can't smell the house after almost a day."

"Didn't you ever think of using my flavor as a substitute?"

"...I never thought about it."

Menreiki paused for a moment, then thought for a second or two before answering.

The others remained silent.

Shizuko was still the first to complain.

He was internally complaining.

She muttered, "Kyosuke-sama, please don't flirt in front of us. Although I'm absolutely certain you don't have any ill intentions towards the spirits opposite you..."

To be honest, Shizuko didn't know if her husband was a lolicon.

Based on many past events, the husband has shown favoritism towards younger people.

Just like yesterday, when we all slept on makeshift beds on the floor in the mother's room.

The husband always kept the youngest members of his family by his side.

It's probably also related to the Hyakumonogatari gathering—judging from the video, some of the stories are quite terrifying, so it's normal for younger people to be scared.

The fact that the husband takes such good care of the younger members of the group demonstrates his thoughtfulness.

His current behavior really does resemble that of a lolicon.

"Alright, I won't try to persuade you anymore."

Kyosuke Kosaka chuckled and said nothing more.

After escorting the spirit to the door and handing her a day's worth of food and snacks, he led the others on their way to the manor.

Menreiki watched the group of people leave with a calm expression.

Only when she realized that the group of small dots moving in her eyes had completely disappeared did she turn her gaze to the food box in her hand.

The exquisite food box is engraved with hidden and profound runes.

Menreiki speculates that the food box likely had a heat-insulating function.

Open it and take a look.

A pleasant, warm scent wafts towards you.

Menreiki carefully examined the small pastries arranged in the shape of a cat, and unconsciously tilted her head.

Aren't cats cute?

I always felt that his personality was unpredictable.

She didn't like it very much.

Just as she was about to close the lid, Menreiki suddenly noticed a letter stuck to the inside of the lid.

"A letter every day..."

Menreiki didn't immediately grab it, but instead muttered to herself.

She remembers it very well.

Ever since she wrote to Kyosuke Kosaka asking him to send her a letter, she has received a letter every day.

When they went to the place called the "Sea of ​​Immortality," the time it would take for Menreiki to receive the message was somewhat uncertain.

After Kyosuke Kosaka returned, he became very punctual every day.

In terms of content, Menreiki couldn't tell whether Kousaka Kyosuke was just going through the motions, but she clearly realized that she was observing the world through Kousaka Kyosuke's perspective...

Often, when Menreiki stays at home, she waits for letters to arrive.

Shashasha~

The spirit that temporarily levitated the food box slowly opened the letter.

The contents of the letter came into view.

[This is a letter of comfort, to console the stubborn Minaret who refuses to come and play with us. Later, I'll tell you in detail about the fun things that happened, so you'll be envious... Okay, now for the comforting part—]

Just from the beginning, Menreiki once again clearly sensed Kyosuke Kousaka's wickedness.

It was as if she could see Kyosuke Kousaka grinning at her mischievously.

"Ugh, you're always tempting me."

Menreiki's gaze returned to the direction where Kousaka Kyosuke had left, and she looked out into the distance.

Just then, a gentle breeze blew by.

The sensation, like a warm, large hand caressing her cheek, made Menreiki involuntarily close her eyes.

Next time, I'll ask Kyosuke Kosaka to touch her face.

Then she will continue to repay in that way.

But I wonder if it's enough?

After all, she had been treated to a very warm welcome yesterday, and the food, clothing, and accommodations she had experienced were unlike anything she had ever enjoyed in her life.

Such a strong expression of goodwill actually made Menreiki feel quite uncomfortable.

However, Menreiki's expression was originally bland.

It's naturally difficult for others to see that he's uncomfortable.

"Then let's do it a few more times?"

Menreiki asked in confusion.

Seemingly satisfied with the answer, she turned and carried the food box back to her residence.

mansion.

After Kousaka Kyosuke, Fuji Shikibu, and the others left, those who had also woken up in the bedroom went about their own business.

However, the matter is far from over.

For example, those who ate, bathed, or even stayed overnight in the palace for the first time yesterday.

Currently, they are all caught in a vortex of thought.

Kiryuin Fuka, Kushida Kikyo, Ichinose Honami, and Sakayanagi Arisu, who often hang out together and are also alumni, are exchanging information and assessing the current situation.

Horikita Suzune sat on the other side, offering insightful opinions from time to time.

"As long as things continue like this, I believe that will be enough."

“Yes,” Kiryuin Kaede nodded, “I think so too, but I really want to take the initiative myself, since being passive in matters of the heart isn’t my style.”

Horikita Suzune's feelings were complicated: "...You're the person Kyosuke-sama mentioned who became restless from practicing martial arts?"

"No, I can control my emotions at all times."

"I'm sorry, I misunderstood you."

"At least pretend to admit you were wrong, right? But you still don't believe me."

"In some ways, I have great faith in you."

"In some respects..."

Kiryuin Fuka rolled her eyes.

be honest.

She didn't deny that she was a little restless.

I've been pretty free these days.

I really want to go out and explore, and even help deal with some monsters, just like Horikita Manabu, Ayanokoji and others.

Unfortunately, this era is marked by discrimination against women in all aspects.

It is extremely difficult for women to contribute in combat.

Unless you're someone who's so incompetent that everyone has to hold their noses.

Kiryuin Fuka didn't think she was capable of doing that.

Speaking of which, yesterday was a good opportunity to go out.

Unfortunately, Kiryuin Fuka didn't seize the opportunity.

Because she could tell that the group of women in the bedroom wanted Kousaka Kyosuke to go out for a walk and not stay in the room all the time, lest he become decadent.
