Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Page 669

"Mmm mmm mmm—"

The anxious voice was very hurried.

Kyosuke Kousaka's hand trembled along with his head, and finally he let go.

"I get it! All I have to do is look at you with disdain!"

Aohime stood with her hands on her hips, glaring disdainfully at Kousaka Kyosuke.

Kyosuke Kosaka nodded: "Yes, yes, yes..."

It's stronger than the clingy, yandere attribute.

"Heh, what a strange man," the spider lily laughed.

Kousaka Kyosuke rolled his eyes at her, then looked apologetically at Aoandon.

"I'm sorry for causing you so much trouble."

"It's nothing, just an accident." Aoandon picked up her book and stood up, seemingly preparing to leave.

Kyosuke Kosaka smiled and said, "Don't rush off. I'd like to prepare a New Year's feast. Why don't you stay and have a meal? There are some of the foods described in the book, so you can learn about them."

While he was surprised that the group was sitting together drinking tea and chatting, he was even more surprised by how quickly Abe no Seimei, Minamoto no Hiromasa, and the others were progressing with their mission.

That's why he had time to prepare for eating and drinking.

It would be best to properly resolve the issues concerning the spider lily and the blue princess for now.

"Then I'll have to trouble you." Aoandon immediately stopped in her tracks.

This is difficult to control.

She had inquired about the food mentioned in the book before, but it was difficult to find out the details because nobles were usually surrounded by Onmyoji (yin-yang masters).

Now that the opportunity has arrived, let's not be coy.

“I’m a pretty good cook, so I might consider helping you if you ask.” Aohime clung to Kousaka Kyosuke, her eyes gleaming.

Kyosuke Kosaka was annoyed. "Your attitude feels even stranger than before."

Considering it's better than being a yandere, he decided not to complain.

"Kyosuke usually doesn't need help cooking," Kagura reminded Aohime.

Aohime was stunned: "So his name is Kyosuke..."

As she spoke, she looked at Kousaka Kyosuke with a resentful gaze.

When she woke up, she knew that the names Kousaka Kyosuke and Higanbana used were definitely pseudonyms.

It wasn't until today that we learned their real names...

Kyosuke Kosaka felt a chill run down his spine.

Go straight to the flat area where the red spider lilies had just created and were in full bloom to cook.

Although it's strange to cook in the underworld, the problem is that we definitely need to ease the atmosphere like this.

The red spider lily is a source of amusement.

Moreover, he had tricked her during their last meeting, so if she could still forgive him, Kousaka Kyosuke absolutely did not believe it.

Therefore, he prepared the dish to ease tensions and prevent the spider lily from causing trouble.

Judging from the personality of the spider lily, she is not an ungrateful person.

"Get out of here quickly! As for Qing Ji, try to find an excuse to brush her off."

Kousaka Kyosuke was thinking in his mind.

Regarding Aohime and the spider lily, Kousaka Kyosuke had briefly mentioned it to Kagura before.

After all, Kagura must have known about Orochi's first trial, so there was even less need for her to hide it from the second one.

So just now, Kyosuke Kousaka provided more information.

Kagura signifies understanding.

How should it be understood? Kyosuke Kousaka didn't quite understand, but at the very least, he thought Kagura was really good.

At this moment!

While Kyosuke Kosaka was preparing the dish, Aoandon and Higanbana sat watching, Kagura was talking to Aohime.

"Qingji, how did you and Kyosuke meet in your dream?"

"Hmm, Kyosuke came over specifically to seduce me back then..."

seduce?

Kyosuke Kosaka almost went on strike and gave Aohime a few chop-like attacks.

After thinking it over carefully, he realized that he had indeed approached Qing Ji multiple times in order to complete the mission, and he couldn't say that Qing Ji was really wrong.

Something's not right.

"Due to the influence of Buddhist philosophy, the desire for food is considered trivial, and therefore great importance is attached to the cutting and appearance of food..."

Aoandon is a dish I made while reading a book and referring to the recipe by Kyosuke Kousaka.

Kagura, with her sharp ears, immediately turned her head and said, "Kyosuke not only pays attention to the cutting technique and appearance, but also has a very good grasp of the taste."

"Now that you mention it, I'm starting to look forward to it."

"Qingxingdeng said with a smile."

Kyosuke Kosaka muttered to himself, "It's just sashimi. If you remove the blood and cut the fish meat properly, it's all the same."

Wouldn't it be better to just look forward to boiled fish?

Of course, Kyosuke Kosaka could only keep those words to himself.

The vast majority of spouses like to eat sashimi, which makes perfect sense since they are from Japan.

Since that's the case, then we should adapt to their food culture.

Anyway, Kyosuke Kosaka didn't have many requirements when it came to food.

"Kagura, do you eat this often?" Aohime noticed the crucial detail about the gorgeous dish.

Kagura said shyly, "Kyosuke often makes this for me and other people, I feel so ashamed..."

“That’s not how it works,” Kyosuke Kosaka had to say. “Didn’t I say before that only the main characters at a banquet are qualified to prepare the dishes?”

"Sorry, I forgot." Kagura smiled faintly, her inner softness touched once again.

She likes the dishes made by Kyosuke Kousaka.

However, she also wanted to cook for Kyosuke Kousaka.

Fortunately, Nino and Yukino were willing to teach her, and she has been secretly learning these past few days.

I just think that you shouldn't say anything if you haven't reached a certain standard.

Woohoo...

Qingji was in so much pain that tears were about to stream down her face.

She longed to become one with Kyosuke Kousaka right now, without any distinction between them.

But Kyosuke Kosaka is preparing a big meal, and everyone is getting along so well. Shouldn't we not disturb them?

In fact, that was Kousaka Kyosuke's goal.

It's clear that both the spider lily and the blue fairy are somewhat concerned with appearances.

As long as they are not overly provoked, both of them will generally restrain their tempers and maintain their image in public.

Cultured people value these things.

"The banquet was a great success, with everyone enjoying themselves. Finally, the group parted ways, and all the guests were happy."

Kousaka Kyosuke secretly thought.

Seeing the mess around him, he knew very well that the three of them must have been fighting.

What exactly happened? He certainly wouldn't be so tactless as to ask.

Are we supposed to expect rivers of blood to flow?

I was thinking about it as I made it.

Kyosuke Kousaka's production speed is getting faster and faster.

The utensils and tableware that he made in his spare time were taken out one by one.

"No help is needed. Next is plating. While it's impossible for people to make food taste better, they can make it look better."

When he's with his spouse, Kyosuke Kosaka is very attentive to his spouse's feelings.

He talked about traditional Chinese style with Kaori, about literature with Fujishikibu, and about history with Miku.

Among them, Miku had the greatest influence on Kyosuke Kousaka.

Perhaps because she was too serious, Miku would always take advantage of her breaks to enthusiastically talk to him about all sorts of traditional Chinese things.

Pottery, porcelain, tea sets, tableware, tea... a whole range of things, you could talk for ages about just one type.
