Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Page 525

His feelings were so complex that words could not describe them!

But Minamoto no Hiromasa immediately realized that Kagura was looking at him like a stranger, and he came to his senses.

Compared to others, it is more important to find out about Kyosuke Kousaka's situation.

"..." Seeing that Minamoto no Hiromasa was about to follow, Kagura's gaze towards him began to turn unpleasant again.

Kyosuke Kousaka noticed, but instead of explaining, he simply patted Kagura's head.

Kagura understood and resisted the urge to squint her eyes in comfort, secretly resolving not to cause any trouble.

"This guy seems to know me, but he's treating Kyosuke terribly..."

Despite not knowing the specifics, Kagura still had her own guesses.

What upset me the most was actually the rude behavior of this guy named Hiromasa towards Kousaka Kyosuke.

And then she'll interfere in her interactions with Kyosuke Kousaka.

She was a little unhappy.

Having just been intimate with Kyosuke Kosaka, her heart was filled with sweetness and joy.

Therefore, Kagura became increasingly fond of Kyosuke Kousaka and disliked the obvious and aggressive interference of men.

Even if you know yourself, you shouldn't treat your husband like that.

In short, Kyosuke Kousaka still started working with Kagura and her brother Minamoto no Hiromasa.

"Lord Boya—"

"Call me Boya, I have not yet received a title."

“Alright, Hiromasa, this time I'll patrol the interior of Kyoto first, and then…”

Kyosuke Kosaka calmly recounted his day's schedule.

At this point, the source of the yin energy still had not been found.

Therefore, we can only strive to improve public security within Kyoto, and this requires everyone's joint efforts.

For example, the Minamoto clan provided powerful samurai and Onmyoji, the Kamo clan provided Onmyoji, and the Fujiwara clan offered conveniences in various aspects...

The three major Onmyoji factions are cooperating very actively.

Minamoto no Hiromasa's anxiety subsided somewhat as he listened attentively to Kousaka Kyosuke's words.

"I've been away from Kyoto for too long, but I do remember hearing rumors about this guy when I first came back."

"I've heard he's a rare 'womanizer' who doesn't even spare maids and peasant girls..."

The thought of being called a "playboy" made Minamoto no Hiromasa feel very depressed.

He really didn't want his sister to marry a man with that kind of title.

However, it has been discovered that the younger sister has completely lost her memory, and at the same time, she is very close to Kousaka Kyosuke.

Minamoto no Hiromasa had no choice but to hold his nose and observe Kousaka Kyosuke in person.

He has already made up his mind.

If Kousaka Kyosuke is terrible, he will take his sister away no matter what.

If Kousaka Kyosuke is a bit bad, teach him a lesson and let him know what he should do next.

If Kyosuke Kousaka is still capable, then let's leave it at that...

We can't let my sister, who's old enough to get married, be unhappy, can we?

"Were those people lining up to receive food?"

Seeing someone hurrying in a certain direction on the road, Minamoto no Hiromasa couldn't help but ask.

Kyosuke Kosaka: "Yes, some relief points have been set up temporarily."

"I saw some people heading to the outskirts early this morning. Were those people also there?"

"People who go to the suburbs belong to a rather special group."

"special?"

“Groups like homeless people, unruly monks, and those with impure eyes.”

"Oh," Minamoto no Hiromasa replied, having roughly understood what was going on.

Even though it had been five years since he had much contact with aristocratic circles.

But he still clearly understood some common sense.

As Kyosuke Kosaka just mentioned, those groups seem to be people even servants don't want to come into contact with.

For this reason, Minamoto no Hiromasa did not ask any further questions.

They just started nitpicking.

"With so many people in such a chaotic situation, aren't you afraid something will go wrong?"

"We have already made the necessary preparations."

"Look! Someone over there fainted because of the food rations!"

"He is dead."

Following the direction pointed out by Minamoto no Hiromasa, Kousaka Kyosuke looked and offered a brief explanation.

No sooner had he finished speaking than a man with a black band around his arm examined a person who had fainted. Soon after, the man with the black band carried the person away.

“Dead…” Minamoto no Hiromasa stared blankly.

Kyosuke Kosaka continued, "Perhaps he died from emotional turmoil, or perhaps he died of cold or starvation."

Minamoto no Hiromasa looked at him: "You expected this all along?"

"If I hadn't anticipated and prepared for this, then I would have been extremely negligent."

"What do you value life for?"

Minamoto no Hiromasa asked a question.

It's less like an interrogation and more like an examination.

"Life is precious, and its passing will always make people feel sad. I'm used to it."

"a……"

Kagura, who hadn't said a word from beginning to end, suddenly hugged Kousaka Kyosuke.

Kyosuke Kosaka coughed lightly: "Hiromasa, let's end this topic here."

Minamoto no Hiromasa, who had almost pulled Kagura away from Kousaka Kyosuke, had a dark expression on his face.

"...I have something to do, I'll come see you tomorrow."

"According to etiquette, it would be more appropriate for me to visit in person."

"talk later."

Minamoto no Hiromasa left after saying that.

Kagura seems to be living a happy life for the time being.

He also realized that it would be difficult to fully understand Kyosuke Kousaka in a short period of time.

Then you might as well leave!

Out of sight out of mind!

Kyosuke Kousaka, who was touching Kagura's hair, was extremely embarrassed.

"Showing affection for someone else's sister in front of them...that's really cruel."

It's clear that Kagura's feelings for him have intensified dramatically with their close interaction over the past two days.

He finds it difficult to avoid.

It seems we'll have to wait until the emotions have calmed down a bit more.

As Kousaka Kyosuke gazed at the blissful expression on Kagura's rosy face, he felt the problem was quite difficult.

Well, if the minor issue is difficult to resolve, then let's focus on proper treatment!

Kousaka Kyosuke looked stern.

—The breakthrough the night before last finally gave him the determination to gradually make up his mind.

Yeah, as long as it doesn't cross the line!

That's right, that's right.

"Kagura, continue patrolling."

"I'm sorry, Kyosuke..."

"It's something I can't help, and I'll do it too."

Kyosuke Kosaka simply smiled at Kagura.

Kagura blushed, her heart pounding.
