Water flowers burst into bloom in the pure moonlight, and the faint fragrance permeates the silent night.
There was a snap.
The brush fell to the ground, lying quietly in the lake reflecting the crescent moon.
This was Minamoto no Raikou's most strenuous chanting.
Her proud chest rose and fell slightly, and hot air came out from her lips.
But Ian's mind at the moment was entirely on something else.
That is the failed waka.
【“Waka” did not take effect. 】
[This means that even if you pay the price of your life, you will not be able to glimpse everything she carries. ]
[What on earth did it touch to become like this? ]
[You realize that the 'Nan' in the foundation of the Genji family may be Minamoto no Raikou himself. ]
[You know this isn't a good thing.]
【But you will never escape. 】
"Master." Minamoto no Raikou's voice came with a slight breath.
"Is my performance this time okay?"
"..."
Ian knew that he shouldn't tell Minamoto no Raikou what he was thinking.
At least--
This wasn't the right thing to do on her much anticipated wedding night.
"Yakou, I am very satisfied."
"The waka poems you composed are so beautiful and full of life."
"And now——"
Ian walked in front of Minamoto no Raikou.
She was sitting on the desk and saw the magic weapon hovering in the air above her face.
No further words needed.
Feeling the warmth flowing on his cheeks, Minamoto no Raikou closed his eyes and felt extremely happy.
Because this was what she wanted for her wedding night.
A night to spend with him without any restraints.
This will be the most unforgettable time in her memory.
【You spent a sweet night. 】
[You officially become Minamoto no Yorimitsu's husband. ]
[After accepting all this, Minamoto Manzhong began to use his power to plan a career path for his daughter.]
【And Minamoto no Raikou was indeed very competitive. 】
[She followed the same path as her father and became friends with the courtiers, the Fujiwara clan.]
[As her husband, you also rose rapidly and became a well-known figure in Heian-kyō. ]
[The harmonious relationship between you and Minamoto no Raikou spread widely in the capital and was even made into a ballad.]
[And the waka you composed on your wedding night was also sought after by the nobles. ]
[But whether it's you or Minamoto no Raikou, what you miss more is the good times when you were chasing demons. 】
[It's just that the ghosts in Kyoto have already fled everywhere because of your name, and it's hard to find your trace. ]
[You can only recall the past days in your spare time, and then look at each other and give each other a knowing smile. ]
[Several years passed like this.]
[When you thought everything would remain calm, the situation changed.]
A young boy named Watanabe Tsuna appeared on the streets of Kyoto.
He was seriously injured and on the verge of death.
But he was still muttering words that both Ian and Minamoto no Raikou missed very much.
"I want to kill ghosts." said the young man.
119. A boy named Watanabe Tsuna (-word chapter)
This is a very thrilling scene.
A young man covered in blood was staggering on the streets of Kyoto.
It is perhaps natural for anyone to feel scared when seeing him like this.
But no one dared to stop him.
The reason is simple -
The young man in front of me exudes a murderous aura.
Walking on the streets of Kyoto, he looked like a walking corpse.
But the coldness revealed in his eyes did not seem like something that a man of his age should have.
Someone panicked.
Some people remain sane.
"Quick! Go tell Lord Abe, he has experience in this area!"
"Yes! I'll go now!"
[You soon learned about the young man.]
【Minamoto no Raikou is still handling government affairs at this moment.】
【You decide to go alone to find out what is going on. 】
[After all, you are quite sensitive to the word "killing ghosts".]
Ian came out onto the street alone.
The boy's figure is not difficult to find - after all, when many people are paying attention to the same person, the rest of the people will soon notice that person.
But it has to be said.
He does look a bit scary.
Under the bloodstains was a tattered piece of clothing.
The exposed skin was covered with large sections of claw marks.
It can be said that it is a miracle that he can still stand here.
Ian could feel that the young man in front of him was carrying some powerful aspirations.
Facing everyone's gaze, he walked up to the young man.
"What's wrong with you?" Ian asked.
"..."
The young man slowly raised his head and stared at the man in front of him who was much taller than him with his red eyes.
All the muscles in his body were shaking, and he finally managed to squeeze out a few words.
"Teach me to kill ghosts. If you can't do it, don't stop me."
"..."
Ian didn't move out of the way.
"Can't you hear me?"
The young man raised the half-broken sword in his hand and pointed it at Ian in front of him.
"Teach me how to kill ghosts, or go away!"
Even though he was yelled at a few times, Ian wasn't angry at all.
The sight of the young man in front of him raising his sword reminded him of Minamoto no Raikou.
Ian couldn't help but laugh.
"You still want to kill ghosts like this?"
"I'm afraid you've already collapsed before you even saw the ghost."
Hearing this, the boy's eyes flickered.
His lips trembled, as if he was about to say something, but his whole body trembled and then fell down.
Ian knew that this was his limit - or rather, when he roared like that, he had used up all his remaining strength.
Give me a little helping hand.
He is the first person who can remind him of what Raikou looked like at that time.
[In front of everyone's surprised gaze, you brought him back to your and Minamoto no Raikou's residence. ]
[This is the residence arranged by Yuan Manzhong - he is actually quite satisfied with your performance. ]
[The servants were very surprised by this.]
[After all, in their impression, you don't seem like the kind of person who would provide assistance for no reason.]
【What's more, he was a young man covered in blood. 】
【But you don’t care about this prejudice. 】
[You order them to give the young man the best possible help.]
[After everything was settled, Minamoto no Raikou happened to come back. ]
"Ma'am, you've finished your business."
"Ah."
Minamoto no Raikou looked at the somewhat chaotic scene in the mansion, with a hint of confusion in his purple eyes.
"Husband, what happened?"
There is nothing to hide between husband and wife.
Ian answered directly:
"I brought back a wounded man."
"..."
Minamoto no Raikou's eyes were surprised at first, then turned calm, and finally into a gentle understanding.
"Ma'am, do you want to say something?"
"No." Minamoto no Raikou shook his head.
"Since you have chosen to do this, you must have your reasons."
"How can a wife tell her husband what to do?"
"but--"
"Although I don't doubt my husband, I still want to know why you brought such a person back to our home."
"..."
Ian smiled.
"It's because of you, ma'am."
"I?"
