Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Kyosuke Kosaka nodded without hesitation.

Kagura was concerned about the fledglings, and he was also somewhat concerned about them.

It is an innocent little life, just like a baby.

He has no reason to ignore it!

"I'm truly grateful. I'll leave it to you, Kyosuke-sama!" Zashiki bowed deeply, her voice trembling with emotion.

It was only then that Kyosuke Kosaka realized that the mountain and river fan behind her was floating, hanging there like a background.

It also possesses considerable spiritual power, making it a decent weapon.

"It's nothing, let's go quickly."

"Not paying much attention," Kousaka Kyosuke said casually.

"Yes."

He was much more respectful than before.

Kousaka Kyosuke thinks.

Some things I lost from Shan Tu and Ying Cao should be able to be made up for from Zhen.

No, now is not the time to think about that.

Let's save a few baby birds first!

It didn't take long.

Kousaka Kyosuke and his group followed the poisoned bird, winding through the gloomy trees until they reached a relatively flat area.

A closer look reveals that even the miasma is less than in the surrounding area.

If you continue walking forward, you will come to a large cave entrance.

This is the home of the poisonous bird and its chicks.

"Is no one looking after the chicks?" the mountain hare asked.

Zhen looked guilty: "I'm the only one taking care of them. Because I usually have to go to the sea to find food, I can only set up a magical barrier here to prevent the children from running around."

Kousaka Kyosuke thought to himself.

Isn't this similar to the situation where parents go to work outside and have to lock their children at home because they are worried that the children will wander off?

Essentially, it's something that can't be helped.

"You've already worked so hard, don't push yourself too hard," Kagura gently comforted Zashiki.

Kinnara clenched his fists and encouraged her, "Yes, that's amazing! Don't blame yourself anymore."

White Wolf, Demon Blade Princess, Yingcao, and Mountain Rabbit also offered words of comfort one after another.

"Your energy is ultimately limited, so taking good care of yourself is also very important."

"Don't do things beyond your capabilities, or you'll lose more than you gain. You can also try to find external help."

"Miss Zhen, you can do it! I will..."

Eh?

Zhen was somewhat bewildered.

Having learned about Kyosuke Kousaka through certain channels, she was somewhat surprised by his helpful behavior.

The enthusiasm of everyone around Kyosuke Kousaka far exceeded her expectations.

For a moment, Zhen was stunned and speechless.

“Alright,” said Kyosuke Kosaka, “I’ll go in with Yingcao to check the situation first. You guys stay here for a while.”

Kinnara was not happy: "I'm not afraid of poison."

"Let me take a look first. Yingcao, let's go."

"Yes!"

Yingcao quickly responded and followed closely behind Kousaka Kyosuke, who had taken the lead into the cave.

After realizing what was happening, Zhen followed closely behind Kousaka Kyosuke.

"Oh dear, we won't be able to see those fledglings now," Kinnara said with a hint of regret.

White Wolf reminded, "The chicks probably haven't grown many feathers yet."

That wouldn't be very cute.

It's cuter when it's fluffy.

The mountain rabbit asked in confusion, "Now I'm more curious about how Jumpy Sister's two brothers got poisoned."

Yaodao-hime slowly raised her hand to signal everyone to pay attention to some claw and footprint marks on the ground.

“The chicks were not locked in the cave, but had some space to move around, and the barriers set up by the poisonous bird were not actually very tight.”

The white wolf seemed to have been reminded.

"Then we should search around for the chicks' poisonous feathers, otherwise it would be terrible if innocent people got them on them."

Kagura's expression was strange: "It's to the east, at the weak point of the barrier."

Kinnara noticed something amiss and asked, "Kagura, did you discover something else? Tell me~"

"It's similar to a certain aura that I'm familiar with."

"Tell me quickly! Tell me quickly!"

"..."

Kagura remained silent as Kinnara shook her arm.

Her heart was surprisingly shaken, albeit slightly.

In the end, he fell into despair.

"Kyosuke probably still prefers bigger ones."

Kagura already lacked confidence while watching, but after experiencing it in real life, she realized just how weak she truly was.

It's a bit uncomfortable.

Kagura thought for a moment and decided to act cute with Kousaka Kyosuke later, then she could get comforted.

After all, her heart was indeed a little hurt.

the other side.

Kyosuke Kosaka also carefully began to check on the fledglings who seemed to have come back to sleep soundly after playing.

The chicks were no different from ordinary birds, except that their outer feathers were a disturbingly green.

A vibrant green!

That's definitely a "warning color"!

It's practically a declaration that they're not to be trifled with.

Any carnivore that sees this would probably turn tail and run.

Biological genes instinctively tell their owners which things are not to be trifled with.

There may be errors; it's not absolute.

But it's enough to deter most creatures.

Kyosuke Kosaka could feel himself being deeply intimidated by the green.

"Lord Kyosuke, please be careful. Even I could be poisoned if I touched it."

Zhen anxiously repeated the reminder.

She hadn't expected it.

The tribesmen who had been missing for only two hours had grown a layer of poisonous feathers on their bodies.

This is probably the last thing she wanted to happen.

The chicks had shown very obvious signs of starting to grow feathers, so she couldn't keep deceiving herself.

Now, it has actually happened.

All she can do is try to find a solution!

“These poisonous feathers are caused by the miasma. I can remove the toxins from these feathers, and then you can move to another place without miasma. That should solve the problem.”

After examining the situation for quite some time, Kyosuke Kousaka finally spoke.

Upon hearing this, Zhen looked incredulous: "Lord Kyosuke, you can remove the poison from the poisonous feathers?"

After a moment's consideration, Kousaka Kyosuke slowly replied:

"Indeed, it is possible. Speaking of which, the reason you produce poisonous feathers is probably due to your survival instinct. As long as you go to places with abundant spiritual energy and maintain a good mindset, they will almost certainly stop appearing."

"But that can't be certain, so you need to take the antidote I prepared regularly to ensure absolute safety—so, what are your thoughts?"

be honest.
