Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Page 874

The bold language is too direct.

The handwriting, bolder and more elegant than before, seemed to be filled with deep emotions.

Fujishikibu's body felt weak after watching for a while.

Sometimes, she was very curious about the letters her husband wrote to his other friends and what they contained.

It was just curiosity, nothing more.

Ultimately, Fujishikibu felt the letter's contents were too...

She really liked it, it was that...

Fujishikibu didn't know what to say.

She tilted her head slightly and spotted Komachi, Moeha, and Megumi walking into the courtyard, seemingly intending to tend to it.

After lingering for several seconds, Fujishikibu gently covered her mouth to hide her weariness, then closed the shoji screen and went to sleep.

Every day her husband was away at war, she had no time to appreciate flowers or admire the moon.

In the courtyard.

These days, the group of people tending to flowers, vegetables, and fruits are chatting.

Moeha: "I really want to reply."

Komachi: "Yes! Me too!"

Megumi: "After all, I want to talk to Kyosuke-sama."

Moeha: "Huh? Megumi didn't even try to hide it?!"

Hui: "Because..."

Moeha: "Because?"

Hui: "...I miss you."

Komachi: "I miss Kyosuke-sama too!"

Moeha: "Everyone is."

Seeing Hui was somewhat disappointed, and Mengye stopped teasing her.

No matter what, it's impossible not to worry when your husband goes to war.

Even the dim-witted second sister, Qianhua, rarely plays board games anymore; she spends almost all her time sleeping.

If I hadn't eaten so little, I would have become very fat.

“I don’t think we need to worry too much about Kyosuke-sama,” Komachi said earnestly. “Since Kyosuke-sama has the leisure to write a letter, there must be no problem.”

Mengye blinked: "Yes, that's what I think too. The only concern is that it's just Sister Suyi, Sister Sushang, and a few others. I wonder if that's enough..."

Hui, who was about to continue speaking, slowly closed her mouth.

Well, she was also well aware that her husband was very bold in matters of love and sex.

The contents of the letter made Hui hesitant to read them.

Whenever Hui sees the letter, she always thinks of her husband's appearance as if he were the Big Bad Wolf trying to kidnap Little Red Riding Hood.

She didn't mean to think that way.

However, Hui always had this kind of illusion in her mind.

Especially when Kyosuke Kousaka said he wanted to help her develop...

Thinking about it, Hui's mind became a bit confused again.

Suddenly.

Komachi started talking about things outside Kyoto.

"I only found out this morning that there was a siren attack at Kyoto Port..."

"Is it like this?" Mengye asked hurriedly.

She only learned shortly after arriving in Kyoto that there were many students from Shuchiin Academy and their relatives in the Kyoto port area.

So, some of her classmates and friends were also there.

Therefore, it is natural to hope that nothing bad will happen to these people.

“It doesn’t look good,” Komachi said. “Some of the victims have been temporarily moved to the Mizubu-ji, which is not far from here.”

"That's really..."

Mengye's emotions were complex and hard to describe at that moment.

The husband is just like the protagonist.

Things always seem to come to him.

I hope all my classmates and friends who came into this world are alright.

"Kyoto is definitely safer..." Moe sighed inwardly.

"Everyone will be alright!"

Seeing that Moeha was a little down, Komachi quickly comforted her.

Mengye laughed and said, "It's nothing. I also believe that those bad sirens will definitely be defeated."

Komachi clenched her little fist and replied, "Yes! That's definitely how it will be!"

While saying this, Komachi unconsciously began to worry about her older brother.

In contrast, Kousaka Kyosuke, who remained cheerful even when injured in the letter and even sent a photo of Kagura feeding him, is much more cheerful.

Komachi suddenly felt a little worried about her brother.

And what about Komachi's older brother, Hikigaya?

He was in the same spot in Ukyo with his acquaintances Ayanokoji, Horikita Manabu, and Shijo Teishoki.

For the past two days, they have been placed here by the Genji people, guarding the area alongside numerous Onmyoji.

The reason? Naturally, it's to defend against potential sea monsters.

"It seems the other adults believe the siren will bypass the Arakawa River and the shores around Kyoto Port, and land elsewhere to attack Kyoto..."

Ayanokouji spoke slowly.

After pondering for a long time, he finally came to a prediction of what was most likely to happen.

Shijo Tei: "That's possible, but the most important thing is that the defensive strength of Ukyo is always weaker than that of Sakyo."

Hachiman: "In short, just follow orders."

Horikita Manabu remained silent, expressing his agreement.

They chatted for a few more minutes, and just when they thought the time would slip away while they were on duty, someone walked over.

"Lord Raimitsu!"×4

Everyone bowed to the newcomer, Minamoto no Yorimitsu.

Minamoto no Yorimitsu gave a light "hmm" and, without any formalities, got straight to the point.

“I need your help with something, Ah Ba, as the leader.”

"Yes, Lord Raikou!"

Knowing he couldn't refuse, Hachiman immediately agreed.

At this moment, the siren is attacking. He is not sure what changes will occur in Kyoto afterward, but he knows very well that if he can do his best, he must help!

“Very good, I hope you can find a monster and talk to him.”

"..."

Hikigaya seemed to have thought of something and was slightly taken aback, but outwardly agreed.

But a man with a face that seemed to be both crying and laughing, whose eyes showed no attempt to hide his hatred yet wavered several times, flashed through his mind.

Moon Goddess Shrine.

Inside the cubicle, Zhuiyue placed another full porcelain bottle into the cabinet space, looking dazed.

"I wonder how he is? Will Lord Enmusubi heal him?"

Unconsciously, thinking of Kousaka Kyosuke's whispers in her ear and his occasional gentle caresses, Tsuki-gami's legs went weak.

She felt like she hadn't seen Kyosuke Kousaka in ages.

He raised his hand, counted on his fingers, and muttered a few words.

"I remember it started the day Yukino and the others stopped coming... one day, two days, three days..."

When the count reached "seven days," the Moon Chaser stopped.

He tilted his head, looking at the drums of all sizes and types in the room, a glint in the depths of his eyes.

Just as he was about to mutter something to himself, the Moon Chaser suddenly looked up at a certain spot.

As if traversing distances, one could see countless people riding horses towards the shrine.
