In the world of Type-Moon, start by becoming Morgan's husband!

Minamoto no Raikou's words suddenly woke Ian up.

"Ma'am, you have a point."

"But it sounds like you're just teasing a child."

"You are right, my lord."

Minamoto no Raikou did not hide his thoughts.

"That's really what I've learned as I've been learning to be a mother."

"Husband, you said it."

"I am the eldest daughter of the Genji clan. I cannot be weak."

"so--"

"Whether it's 'wife' or 'mother', I'm trying hard to learn how to do it."

[The Talented Strange Couple has been enhanced to Strange Couple+: You find that taking care of you as a "mother" seems to have become one of Minamoto no Raikou's spiritual pillars. 】

She had a lot of fun doing it.

【Her life has become much more meaningful because of this. 】

【You think this is not a bad thing. 】

[According to Minamoto no Raikou's idea, you plan to attract Kintaro's attention by using an object. ]

To be fair.

If Kintaro was really a ghost, Ian wouldn't have such a headache.

After all, the birth of monsters is often closely related to the "thoughts" to which they are attached.

As long as you can find the "thought", you won't be afraid of not being able to kill the monsters, nor will you worry about not being able to communicate with them.

But the problem is that Kintaro only looks like a ghost.

This method that Onmyoji is good at is completely infeasible to him.

and so--

To maximize the possibility of communication.

Ian prepared a lot of conspicuous things.

Jade, antiques, famous paintings, etc.

They are all extremely easy to attract the attention of ordinary people.

Ian showed these things to Kintaro one by one, trying to facilitate communication in this way.

But the situation is not as easy as imagined.

These things that are very tempting to ordinary people seem to be completely meaningless to Kintaro.

He just watched Ian silently as he passed them past his eyes, and then burst into laughter.

He means no harm.

But for the great Onmyoji, it was a difficult thing to accept.

Ian realized that the man in front of him seemed to be in an abnormal mental state - probably even worse than a child.

Is it going to fail again?

Just as Ian was thinking this, things took a turn for the better.

I saw that it was the last tool he prepared - a piece of gold.

Ian hadn't originally planned to bring it over.

I brought it along simply with the mentality that "it won't be a big deal if I keep it".

but--

Ian soon discovered that Kintaro in front of him was interested in it.

His eyes followed wherever his hand holding the gold bar moved.

The Great Onmyoji who noticed this asked tentatively.

"Want it?"

"Yeah!" Kintaro responded.

[This is the first time you see Kintaro say other answers. 】

【You realize that Minamoto no Raikou is right. 】

[She is indeed very good at thinking in terms of “motherhood”—this is also an unexpected gain.]

【You handed the gold nugget to Kintaro. 】

[You find that the way he looks at you has changed.]

[But he still seems a little unskilled in answering your question. ]

[You decide to come again and order someone to bring more gold.]

【But Kintaro refused to accept it. 】

[You are in trouble again.]

[You decide to ask Minamoto no Raikou for help again. ]

"You won't accept the gold again?"

Minamoto no Raikou asked this while tapping his chin and tilting his head slightly.

"Yeah, he obviously accepted the first piece, but he refused to take the rest."

Ian had a headache.

For him, interacting with people is quite troublesome.

Now the trouble has become even more complicated.

"That--"

Minamoto no Raikou stretched out the ending sound.

"Maybe it's because he's very polite?"

"Speak, be polite?"

Ian heard another unheard angle from his wife.

"What does it mean?"

"Husband, please think about it." Minamoto no Raikou explained.

"Since Kintaro's mental state is only at the level of a child, you can't understand his thoughts from an adult's perspective."

"He took the first piece because he thought it was your way of showing friendship."

"The latter one doesn't want it because he thinks it's impolite."

"..."

Although it seemed absurd at first, Ian found that it made some sense after careful consideration.

This is Minamoto no Raikou's unique perspective.

But this also brings up new problems.

"Madam, what should we do next?"

Ian asked further.

"Well... in this case."

Minamoto no Raikou looked at him beside the pillow.

"I think, husband, you may need to make him realize that you are the same kind of people."

"The same kind of people?"

"Yes." Minamoto no Raikou nodded, "As long as he can accept you, we can continue to communicate."

"As for how to do it specifically—"

"I think you can do it if you also take a piece of gold and say it's yours."

"..."

"Husband, what's that look in your eyes? Are my ideas really still ridiculous?"

"No." Ian shook his head.

"Ma'am, you make a lot of sense."

"It's just that I think your attainments in the matter of 'mother' are slightly beyond my imagination."

"of course."

Minamoto no Raikou answered with a bit of pride.

"Because I promised my husband that I would not be weak...so I will try my best to do my best."

"I hope one day—"

"As a mother, I will also be loved by my husband."

"Then madam, you have already done it."

"Yes, really?"

"Yes."

Ian took Minamoto no Raikou's hand and gently pressed it against a hot patch.

"Whether it's 'wife' or 'mother', I have the same desire."

"That--"

Minamoto no Raikou used a little force and slid his hand up and down.

"Just let mommy see what you need."

【You spent an unspeakable night. 】

[Minamoto Yorimitsu is greatly satisfied with your care. 】

【Your relationship is still praised by others. 】

【But you haven't forgotten what you have to do. 】

[According to Minamoto no Raikou's idea, you start to act. ]

[You come to him with a gold nugget similar to the one you gave him before.]

Kintaro was no longer resistant to Ian's arrival.

The big guy who was released from the cage was still watched by the people around him, but at least his range of movement was much larger.

Holding the gold, he just stared blankly at Ian walking towards him.

The Great Onmyoji took a deep breath, adjusted his emotions, then bent down and showed his gold nugget to Kintaro as Minamoto no Raikou had mentioned.

He smiled and spoke in the friendliest tone possible:

"It's not for you this time."

"It's my own - I have a piece of gold just like you."

[You said it according to what Minamoto no Raikou said.]

You look forward to its effects.

[Your expectations have not been disappointed. 】

[Kintaro has a new reaction as expected. 】

"Great!"

"You have it, and I have it too."
