"...Could this be Lord Inspector of the Bureau of Investigation and Punishment?"
Komachi, who was being pulled along by Hachiman Hikigaya, didn't move but instead tried to squat down.
His bright, lively eyes gazed intently at Kyosuke Kousaka.
Kyosuke Kosaka lowered his head and chuckled.
Memories inexplicably flood my mind.
—Isn't this my stepsister's special skill from when she was little?
If they're unhappy, they'll just squat down on the ground, and no one can pull them away.
"I'm sorry, sir..."
"It's ok."
Kyosuke Kosaka smiled at Hachiman Hikigaya, who looked apprehensive.
The older brother has absolutely no resistance to his younger sister's coquettishness and stubbornness.
A quarter of an hour later.
After chattering away with Kyosuke Kousaka for a long time, Komachi was pulled away by her older brother, Hachiman Hikigaya.
Before leaving, Hachiman Hikigaya kept apologizing.
Kyosuke Kousaka shook his head secretly, lowering his eyes and humming softly...
Day 68 of crossing
A wasteland near the non-human tribe on the Eight Great Avenues.
Hachiman Hikigaya was brought before Kyosuke Kousaka by Kiyotaka Ayanokoji.
"Lord Inspector General, regarding yesterday's matter..."
"No need for words, just slash me with your knife."
Kyosuke Kosaka interrupted Hachiman Hikigaya quietly and threw a knife at him.
Hachiman Hikigaya, who had instinctively taken the money, was stunned.
"I……"
"Go ahead and chop, it's fine."
"Then please forgive my rudeness."
Unsure of what Kousaka Kyosuke was up to, Hikigaya Hachiman gritted his teeth, drew his sword, and slashed at Kousaka Kyosuke.
boom.
In the blink of an eye, an invisible barrier appeared and stopped the blade from falling on Kousaka Kyosuke.
"I'm too tired, keep going."
Kyosuke Kosaka said calmly.
Hachiman Hikigaya did not hesitate any longer and continued to swing his sword.
bang bang bang...
And so, for the next half hour, Hachiman Hikigaya began to continuously swing his sword.
Ayanokouji Kiyotaka watched silently from the side, his mind racing with thought.
What exactly is this for?
Kyosuke Kousaka only sighed when Hachiman Hikigaya finally couldn't even lift his sword anymore.
"To truly master martial arts, if you don't even have the courage to seriously chop down a blow before trying to fight monsters and demons, you won't have enough lives even if you have nine."
"Meow?" A puzzled meow sounded from somewhere.
"I wasn't calling you."
"Meow~!"
Kyosuke Kousaka, who still wants to educate Hachiman Hikigaya, is speechless.
Looking at the three sharp blades before him, he raised his hand to catch them, easily grabbing a fleshy beast claw.
Then it grabbed another animal's claw.
Then he took out a rope from his person...
Without saying a word, Kyosuke Kousaka tied up the cat-eared girl who had suddenly attacked him.
"Alright, let's continue."
After thinking for a moment, somewhat tired, Kousaka Kyosuke simply sat on the cat-eared girl's lap.
The homemade cat meat chair is quite nice.
Mmm, soft and fleshy.
There are pictures here, which can be viewed after the updated version
42. Nine Lives Cat / Education / The Cat Under the Snow
"Uuuuuu——"
The cat-eared girl, whose mouth was sealed with a talisman, struggled desperately, whimpering.
Unfortunately, the disparity in strength rendered all their efforts futile.
Kyosuke Kousaka remained calmly seated on the cat-eared girl's back.
Hachiman Hikigaya was somewhat embarrassed.
They believe that the incident is inextricably linked to them.
Ayanokoji Kiyotaka's feelings were quite complicated as he watched the whole process of the incident unfold.
He found out.
The master is not only skilled in the magical arts of Yin and Yang.
They might even be quite skilled in martial arts.
This reminded Ayanokoji Kiyotaka of Minamoto no Yorimitsu.
"Minamoto no Yorimitsu was the most famous and bravest samurai in history."
"Now he is a very famous Onmyoji..."
Perhaps many Onmyoji possess the superb martial arts skills of samurai?
Kiyotaka Ayanokoji secretly speculated.
This also puts renewed pressure on the upcoming detoxification efforts.
He had vaguely seen some of the strange creatures like demons and monsters before.
But he had also heard Kousaka Kyosuke casually mention it before—
In other words, the Four Gods Barrier set up in Kyoto can block the invasion of many evil spirits and monsters.
The remaining few who managed to get in were not very strong.
Unconscious evil spirits that arise naturally from human beings' vengeful spirits and foul air generally pose less of a threat.
Nobles would usually have a sorcerer perform magic to ward off evil and bring good fortune when they went out.
"A martial artist should first cultivate a bit of fierceness in his heart. If you can't do that, you might as well use the remaining days to have some fun."
Kyosuke Kosaka then slowly lectured Hachiman Hikigaya.
be honest.
He wouldn't have bothered if it weren't for Hachiman Hikigaya's sister pleading with him in a special way.
Good advice is useless to those who deserve to die; compassion is useless to those who cut themselves off.
Even though Kyosuke Kousaka harbors deep affection for Hachiman Hikigaya, who doesn't do evil.
But that doesn't mean he has the time to help.
There wasn't much of a relationship between the two.
"Three parts resentment?" Hachiman Hikigaya murmured.
Kyosuke Kosaka narrowed his eyes.
"Is 'evil' truly evil? When people are driven to the brink, it's difficult to call anything they do truly evil."
When a person is extremely hungry, some of their actions may even be beyond their control.
What if a person knows that he is going to die?
It's understandable that people might do things out of a survival instinct.
