Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Page 443

It seems that Kyosuke-sama did not completely eradicate the Tsuchigumo clan back then.

They must have come to the sea via the ocean in the Blue Forest...

The deepest part of the Blue Forest on the outskirts of Kyoto connects to the sea, and it just so happens that the Tsuchigumo clan roams there.

I wonder if the Great Manor can withstand it?

127. The Shijo Family / Minamoto no Yorihira Protagonist / Miyuki Shirogane

Da Zifu.

Less than a month later.

Following the Lobster Monster Shinkirou.

Another monster is attacking.

A gigantic, terrifying spider, nearly ten meters tall, floated on the sea, hissing.

A piercing, ghostly wail suddenly rang out!

Several vengeful spirits and evil spirits could be vaguely seen in the air.

It surges in with the powerful waves!

Several Onmyoji stood on the dock, using magic to fight against them.

The battle has reached a stalemate.

"...I didn't expect there to be any remaining earth spiders here."

On a distant high platform, Fujiwara Michiyoshi, a middle-aged man with a mustache, was both angry and helpless.

He felt that life was getting harder and harder lately.

In the past, at most, it would come with some sea monsters, which we could barely kill or repel.

And recently?

Every now and then a troublesome monster appears.

The Onmyoji on the Daijifu side are barely competent.

But that's not enough to see.

After all, sirens can rely on the advantages of the sea to advance or retreat at will.

Any slightly intelligent monster that saw the situation was bad immediately ran away!

As a result, each time they left behind a considerable mess.

Righteousness and morality are lamenting the hardships of life.

Suddenly, he saw a group of people sneaking onto a boat at a riverbank.

Upon spotting the familiar figure again, he immediately rubbed his temples.

"Bring them here."

A command was given.

Immediately afterwards, one of the guards next to Daoyi mysteriously disappeared into thin air.

In the blink of an eye, the guards arrived at the border.

Soon they brought the two people who were just about to board the ship.

He no longer rubbed his temples and looked seriously at a handsome young man standing in front of him.

The other boy knelt down without hesitation when he came to Daoyi.

Two boys came over.

They were all around sixteen or seventeen years old.

One was dressed in a white dress, and the other in a black and gray linen dress.

The huge difference in social status can be seen just from their clothing.

Daoyi glanced at the boy in the black and gray linen clothes without realizing it.

Only then did he look at the awkwardly standing boy in front of him and slowly say:

"Yumen, what's going on? Why are you in such a hurry to go and die?"

The boy who was drained of water gave an awkward response.

"I'm very sorry, Lord Daoyi, but I've actually noticed a characteristic of that spider monster."

"When you're floating on the sea, your body produces a lot of oil, so I wanted to try igniting it with a prop I made myself."

Daoyi sighed.

"I won't hold it against you for acting on your own, but why didn't you report it?"

Royal Gate.

It is a branch of the Minamoto clan.

It's not appropriate for me to interfere too much on moral grounds.

Furthermore, his father, Makoto, is very capable.

I have given him some reasonable and useful suggestions on several occasions.

He can be described as a very good subordinate.

Therefore, he did not want to be too harsh on his subordinate's only son.

"...I spoke with Lord Lai Xin before, and he said he would consider it."

"If you were to say the same thing to me, I would give the same answer."

"I have overstepped my bounds, Your Honor, please punish me!"

Mikado bowed deeply in apology.

He also realized that he had acted far too recklessly.

But knowing there's a way and not doing it isn't in his nature.

Just a quarter of an hour ago, two acquaintances died.

He finds it difficult not to act when there is a solution!

"Alright, I'll send someone to give it a try." Daoyi waved his hand.

Makoto, my subordinate, is very useful.

Therefore, there were preparations for a marriage alliance, and the person in front of them was the candidate.

He treated Mikado as a junior relative.

"Lord Daoyi, this bottle of stuff might come in handy..."

"No need! I can just order the Onmyoji to attack with fire, can't I? Stop messing around with all those weird and ingenious tricks."

Morality directly interrupted Mikado.

He realized his tone was too harsh, so he softened it.

"Is this kerosene you concocted? But you know that powerful monsters can't be defeated with something like this."

"...Yes, Lord Daoyi, I understand. Thank you for your guidance."

"Give me pointers? You should think carefully about the biggest mistake you made."

Daoyi chuckled and didn't say anything more.

With a look of guilt, Yumen bowed deeply once more.

Daoyi didn't look at him, but instead looked at the servant who was kneeling prostrate behind the gate.

The servant had golden hair.

They also have a fierce look in their eyes.

It's so disgusting.

How could they not even try to dissuade their master from going to his death, but instead go with him?

Haha, it's rare to see someone who would sacrifice their master's life to improve their status.

"Go back."

"Yes."

Mikado left helplessly.

The servants behind him also carefully got up and followed behind the gate.

The two arrived at a deserted and empty piece of land.

Mikado spoke first: "Mikado, you should go back first."

The man called Yuyuki sighed.
