Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Page 871

Kousaka Kyosuke was speechless.

It seems Kagura can't offer much good advice on relationship issues.

"It's okay! I want to get along well with you!"

Princess Goldfish seemed to have regained her spirits. She moved her knees and walked to Kyosuke Kousaka, her head bowed.

Kousaka Kyosuke, feeling helpless, simply hugged Princess Goldfish gently.

"Kagura, come too. Princess Goldfish will be nervous."

"May I?"

"Yes, Kagura, let's come together!"

Princess Goldfish quickly said.

Even though Kyosuke Kousaka's embrace was very gentle, she couldn't help but feel nervous!

If Kagura were there, things would be much better.

"Then I'm here."

Kagura found the empty space in Kousaka Kyosuke's arms and slipped inside with practiced ease.

Kagura was so used to being held and nuzzled by Kyosuke Kousaka that she couldn't be more familiar with it.

"It's warm." A clear, childlike voice rang out.

Kyosuke Kosaka felt a warmth in his heart and hugged Kagura tightly.

Princess Goldfish gradually calmed down.

"This is definitely much better..."

"After facing things head-on, I realized it wasn't such a big deal."

Yes, that's exactly it.

"After we defeat the Sea Kingdom, I will search for the vessel to hold the soul of the Lord of Arakawa and revive him. During this time, you must also diligently fulfill your responsibilities to the aquatic tribes, okay?"

"I understand... I will definitely protect my people!"

"That's not all. After all, your strength is still somewhat lacking, so it's also necessary to ask others for help."

"Yes, I also feel that my strength is still lacking..."

"It's okay. These kinds of things are hard to solve in a short time. After all, nothing can be accomplished overnight."

Kyosuke Kosaka gently comforted Princess Goldfish.

Princess Goldfish was originally just an innocent child, and everyone cared about her.

As a result, the Lord of Arakawa has now entrusted the responsibility of protecting his people to Princess Goldfish, which naturally puts a lot of pressure on her.

Growth is definitely possible.

However, Kyosuke Kousaka hoped that Princess Goldfish wouldn't grow too much because of this.

At the very least, there needs to be a buffer period.

Otherwise, it would be too heartbreaking.

"Whether or not I'm matched with her is irrelevant to me. In any case, Princess Goldfish has a very close relationship with me, and I will definitely help her if I can."

Kosaka Kyo said heartily.

To be honest, he definitely still has some integrity.

I just want to protect Princess Goldfish, just like everyone else.

But a small "accident" happened, so let's just go with it.

Ultimately, he was still a man, and he wouldn't let such a lovely girl be sad.

He's just too much of a jerk, yeah, he admits that.

They hugged for about fifteen minutes.

Kousaka Kyosuke then let go of Kagura and Kingyo-hime and started chatting with them.

With the siren not attacking, the group was quite idle.

This is no way.

If we don't defend this area, are we supposed to fight on the water or at sea, where it's advantageous for fighting sea monsters?

All I can say is that defense is truly the best strategy.

Furthermore, Kyosuke Kosaka was well aware that the longer the Sea Kingdom fought the inland war, the more time they would have to buy later. Kyoto, which was defending during the war, had a natural home advantage, and if the Sea Kingdom did not invade and occupy it in a short period of time, the disadvantage would become more and more obvious.

"By the way, Kiku and Hoshika play really well, everyone loves it."

Princess Goldfish suddenly brought up another interesting story from the manor.

Kyosuke Kosaka smiled and asked, "If it sounds good, that would be even better. These past few days have been so hectic, it's easy to get restless, and some music is really good for calming the mind."

Suddenly, he remembered that he had just started learning guitar and bass.

"I've learned some myself, how about I play it for you?"

"Okay!"

"it is good."

Afterwards, Kyosuke Kosaka played music for Kagura and Princess Goldfish.

The days without the sirens were spent leisurely like this.

at the same time.

Hiroi Kikuri, Hoshika, and others mentioned by Princess Goldfish are resting.

They toured the estate with their instruments, performing all day long and were very tired.

"It's really going to go to heaven..."

Hongxia lay helplessly on the edge of the corridor and began to expel her soul.

Yamada Ryo lay quietly beside him, silent, his eyes gazing listlessly at the sky.

"Senior Liang, please don't die!"

Kita Ikuyo hurriedly shoved Yamada Ryo, who seemed to have lost his soul.

Hiroi Kikuri burst into laughter upon seeing this.

"Haha, so energetic..."

Xingge rolled her eyes, saying, "Don't drink too much, we still have to continue."

"I understand, I understand..."

Hiroi Kikuri continued to pour sake, the exquisite porcelain bottle tilting as it landed on a small cup, allowing for a light sip.

This was something that could never have happened before, but now it has.

This is quite reasonable.

Since wine was very precious in this era, it naturally had to be savored carefully.

Although the alcohol content is pitifully low, it is still very precious.

Kikuri Hiroi has no right to complain.

"Hi, I brought some snacks!"

A lively voice swept past everyone's ears.

A young girl suddenly appeared in the pavilion where everyone was resting.

"Lady Su Chang..."

"Lady Su Chang!"

One after another, voices, some hurried and some surprised, rang out.

Su Chang waved her hand dismissively: "No need for formalities, let's eat something first."

"Wow! It's a rice ball—"

Hiroi Kikuri cheered and took one of the foods Sushang handed her, putting it in her mouth and eating it with relish.

"Rice ball?"

Yamada Ryo and Nijika, who were struggling to stand up to bow, quickly stood up and rushed towards the food.

"The filling is garlic and pickled pork, which I made!" Su Chang said enthusiastically.

Xingge picked up a piece, took a bite, and couldn't help but exclaim, "So delicious..."

Amazing!

Is she an all-around perfect wife?

Xingge was almost completely taken aback.

Let's leave aside Kyosuke Kousaka for now, because he's a legend in his own right.
