Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Page 1551

Longkui chimed in, "We can't be too busy and exhaust ourselves. It's not worth it. Only when we're in better shape can we do more of what we want to do."

"Eat on time and go to bed on time," Kagura reminded her as well.

Ji blinked, a little confused, as she listened to what the others were saying.

Why does she feel like a little kid right now?

Ah!

Ji took a bite of the slightly burnt potato sprinkled with a little pepper, and his bewildered expression instantly turned into a happy one.

Why think so much? Let's eat first!

"The potatoes are so delicious!"

Ji couldn't help but praise it again.

Kyosuke Kosaka said, "The way to grow potatoes and sweet potatoes is very simple, but you still have to see if there are any other changes after they are grown. If they are not edible for humans, that would be bad."

"So for now, it's best not to spread this information unless you can confirm it. Also, you can't reveal your whereabouts casually. You know there are good people and bad people among humans."

Mmm...

Ji kept nodding his head, because what Kousaka Kyosuke said made a lot of sense, so he could only nod.

When Kyosuke Kosaka placed several slices of grilled meat on her plate with tongs, her face, which had been gradually becoming dazed, perked up again.

Pick up your chopsticks, take a bite, and eat!

With a gentle bite into the tender meat, she first encountered a slight, spring-like resistance, followed by a surge of rich, flavorful juices that relentlessly attacked the fortress in her mouth.

Season, unable to resist.

"The meat is so delicious!"

"..."

Kyosuke Kosaka felt both happy and a little conflicted.

He noticed that Ji treated the small animals very gently, but what if he wanted to eat meat later? Wouldn't something bad happen?

Before you leave, leave some dried meat.

I just hope that this god, who may or may not have inherited the will of gluttony, can live a happier life in the days to come. There should be a chance to meet again in the future. His simple personality is really worrying. Perhaps at some point, Kousaka Kyosuke and that gluttonous evil god felt similar feelings...

475. Return/The atmosphere remains the same/Go back for a trip

Chili peppers, tomatoes, bananas, watermelons...

Over the course of one night, the shikigami dispatched by Kousaka Kyosuke collected many vegetables and fruits that are readily available in modern times but not found in Japan.

Some of them seem to have changed in taste due to being out of season.

That's alright, it's just for research purposes, I don't plan to eat it directly.

If you give this to Shizuko, Chitanda, and the others, they will be very happy.

As for the issue of the aura of evil spirits?

Kyosuke Kousaka thoroughly examined the area with his own conscious clone and found no problems whatsoever.

Noshii-gami has completely disappeared.

The only thing they left behind was their primary purpose for coming here—divinity.

After all, the current goal is to strengthen Ame no Habakiri with the power of the evil god's divine essence.

It's been achieved, and we've checked and rested.

It's time to leave.

"Kyosuke, Aoi, Kagura... take care of yourselves."

Ji, who was very reluctant to part with them, did not try to persuade them to stay any longer.

She even expressed a strong desire to travel with everyone.

However, as the goddess of the four seasons, she also has her own responsibilities; at the very least, she must restore the four seasons of this world completely...

"The same goes for Ji," Kagura said softly.

Longkui bluntly stated, "You are the one who needs the most attention."

"Yes, yes! I understand, I'll be careful..."

Ji nodded quickly in agreement.

Last night, Longkui gave her a lot of advice, but as she listened, she felt a little... unwilling to listen anymore.

Although this is out of concern for her, she's not a child anymore.

You can live a good life even if you're alone.

"Never mind, I'll come see you when I have time later." Long Kui noticed Ji's expression and stopped nagging to avoid bothering him.

"I just hope that Ji will always remember my words: some bad people are more terrifying than evil gods when they are in their worst condition."

Leaving aside his past experiences, in terms of the environment that Kyosuke Kosaka faced, there were quite a few bad people like him.

Once the war is truly over, the inevitable occurrence of "discarding the bow after the birds are gone, and cooking the dog after the rabbit is dead" will happen.

That will definitely cause a lot of trouble.

Never mind, I'm thinking too far ahead.

"In the future..."

"They'll come."

Seeing Ji's expectation, Kousaka Kyosuke affirmed her words.

"Don't come here specifically for me; your matters are more important," Ji said anxiously.

Kyosuke Kosaka: "What are you thinking? I'll at least defeat all those evil gods and take care of everything before I come over."

To be honest, Ji has shown signs of becoming the group's darling these past two days.

On the one hand, their previous experiences were quite tragic.

On the other hand, she is too naive and easily taken advantage of by those with ulterior motives.

This is what they are worried about.

That's why Kyosuke Kosaka secretly planted a hidden trap here, which will be triggered when the seasonal aura weakens.

Ultimately, he never underestimated humankind.

Once a person turns evil, it's not impossible for them to come up with any vicious trick.

He's seen a lot.

Ji, being such an innocent little rabbit, can be easily tricked and sold out by someone with ulterior motives, who will even help count the money.

Kyosuke Kousaka would absolutely not tolerate such a thing.

Beautiful people and things should not be destroyed in this way.

"That's good……"

"I won't say anything more. Let's part ways here. I'll cook some other dishes for you next time."

Kousaka Kyosuke then stopped delaying.

After saying that, he activated an item given to him by Huang, and a large door appeared in front of them.

Kyosuke Kosaka waved to Ki and walked straight toward the door.

"Don't push yourself too hard." Kagura waved her little hand just like Kousaka Kyosuke, smiled at Ji Qianqian, and followed Kousaka Kyosuke away.

"Never reveal the identity of a god to strangers!"

Longkui, still feeling uneasy, gave one last word of advice before turning to follow Kousaka Kyosuke and Kagura.

Not a moment later.

A large gate that appeared out of nowhere then vanished.

Ji Jiujiu stared at the spot where the three had disappeared, and the disappointment in her heart was inevitably revealed on her face.

“I don’t mind if Longkui talks about it again… When can I learn how to weave flower wreaths from Kagura? Fried rice, barbecue… Kyosuke…”

In the present world, at the Rashomon front in Kyoto.

Kyosuke Kousaka, Kagura, and Aoi all returned safely.

They returned to the same place they had left from. Kousaka Kyosuke immediately handed over the divine power to Ara, and after recounting everyone's experiences, he inquired about the situation on Seimei's side.

"They haven't returned yet, but I have a feeling they will definitely return safely in the next couple of days."

"Is that so? Then, Lord Ara, is there anything else that is particularly urgent?"

"No, you go and rest with Kagura and Longkui first. You don't need to worry about anything else," Huang said in a detached voice.

Yaobikuni laughed: "Lord Ara means that we can leave the rest to him."

"Actually, we weren't too tired. In the other world, we rested for a night after our battle before coming back."
