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

A beautiful atmosphere lingers in a place that is a replica of that first encounter.

Ten minutes later.

Minamoto no Raikou snuggled up to Ian, his face blushing.

"My husband is really amazing~"

"If we say we can do it at the same time, then we can really do it at the same time."

"Of course." Ian smiled. "After all, my lady has asked me to do this, so I must work hard."

“I’m so happy…”

Minamoto no Raikou looked up at Ian with longing in his eyes.

"I really hope I can be so loving with my husband every day."

"But..." She sighed, "I'll be busy again starting tomorrow."

"Ma'am, has something happened again?"

"No." Minamoto no Raikou shook his head.

"It's just that the Pope has ordered that we must find that 'Algae Girl', so there will definitely be other actions next."

[Hearing what Minamoto no Raikou said, you recalled the woman you saw on the street. ]

[Your mind is filled with her extremely sad eyes. ]

[This makes you feel that the Emperor's anxiety seems a little off.]

[You decided to ask more questions from Minamoto no Raikou. ]

"lady."

Ian looked at Minamoto no Raikou, who was blushing beside him, and asked;

"Why would the Pope care so much about a woman?"

"Given his status and position, even if he were to choose based on beauty standards, he would probably have a lot of choices, right?"

"As for feelings, that's even more impossible - isn't that the woman who is about to enter the court?"

"I'm not sure about that." Minamoto no Raikou tilted his head slightly.

"My husband, you also know that it is not so convenient to ask about the decision of the Pope."

"……Too."

Ian nodded thoughtfully.

"Husband." Minamoto no Raikou looked at Ian who was thinking beside him, "You seem to be very concerned about this matter."

"If you count this time, you have asked me this several times, right?"

"..."

Ian smiled calmly.

"Ma'am, this is a great opportunity for Genji."

"Of course I have to care a little."

"As expected, my husband is also a member of the Genji..."

Minamoto no Raikou quickly accepted Ian's explanation.

"But then again, weren't there two little girls in our mansion who were always pestering you?"

"Why can't I see them now?"

"Oh...something happened to their neighbor, so I allowed them to go back first."

"That's okay, right?"

"No." Ian shook his head. "Ma'am, you seem to be concerned about their appearance?"

"I don't really care..." Minamoto no Raikou muttered, "I just simply thought one of them looked familiar."

"……I see."

【You did not name the woman you saw.】

[You didn't mean to deceive Minamoto no Raikou. ]

[But the other person disappeared so quickly that you wondered if you had seen it wrong.]

[You don't want to add unnecessary worries to Minamoto no Raikou.]

[After you decide to confirm that such a thing really exists, you can mention it to her. ]

But that's strange.

Ever since that encounter on the street that day, the Great Onmyoji never saw that beautiful figure again.

Everything seems to be just a bubble illusion.

Ian couldn't help but wonder if he had really seen something wrong.

but--

He hoped it wasn't fake.

He wanted to see her again.

After all, that sad look always made him feel that there was some unknown secret behind her.

【Your wish has not come true after all. 】

【Things developed just as Minamoto no Raikou predicted. 】

[Because of her, you were able to lead a group of foot soldiers to search the city. ]

[This is something worth being happy about - after all, it can be considered as being reused in a certain sense. ]

[But your life has become a little strange because you frequently appear on the streets of Kyoto. ]

[It seems like someone is watching you secretly. ]

here we go again--

The kind of gaze that came from nowhere.

Ian frowned slightly.

This was not the first time he had felt this kind of gaze.

Ever since he took over some of the foot soldiers, he would feel this kind of gaze from time to time.

And as time goes by, this sight appears more and more frequently.

But this is not the most serious problem.

But I couldn't detect the source of the gaze.

If I have to describe it——

It was as if the owner of this gaze had taken the initiative to conceal his own breath.

If it weren't for my identity as an Onmyoji, whose sharp senses were developed.

Maybe you won’t even be able to discover that you’re being monitored.

[You realize there might be something wrong.]

[You must find out the owner of this gaze.]

You took action immediately.

"Just do as I say first." Ian ordered the foot soldiers around him.

"Yes! Lord Abe!"

The foot soldiers dispersed.

Ian's side became quiet again.

However, he could still clearly feel that the gaze was still there - this meant that the other party's target was indeed him.

That would be much easier to do.

Ian began to wander the streets of Kyoto.

He is sometimes fast and sometimes slow.

The sight hidden in the darkness also adjusted its rhythm.

The Great Onmyoji walked to the corner of the street.

A figure followed hurriedly.

But when the figure turned around, he found that there was a dead end in front of him.

Where did he go?

next moment--

The ground beneath the figure's feet began to sink, trapping his feet tightly.

This is a "prison" built using the earth among the five elements.

Then, Ian's voice came from above.

I saw that he was already sitting on the walls on both sides of the alley, looking down at the people who had been watching him in secret.

"Have you seen enough?"

"If I've seen enough... I should send you, who is so suspicious, to the Ashigaru."

"Migu!"

The watcher let out a panicked sound.

"Please do not do this!"

"I... am just looking for an opportunity to meet you alone again!"

"See you again?"

Hearing this, Ian suddenly thought of something.

He jumped down from the wall, came in front of the other person, and lifted the black veil that concealed his face.

The moment he saw the other person's face, Ian was stunned.

Because although he had only seen it once, it was a face that he had memorized deeply.

Pink hair, fox ears, golden eyes and white skin.

"You were that guy that day!"

"Yes, it is my concubine Tamamonomae."

The fox-eared girl who calls herself Tamamonomae has sad eyes, a look that would make anyone who sees it sad.

"Although it may sound a bit offensive to say it now, but——"

"Can you please help me, who is now in prison?"

137. Tamamonomae: Help me, Mr. Abe! (-word chapter)

"..."

Tamamonomae is indeed very beautiful.

If it were accompanied by this pleading tone, it would appear even more charming.

If another man saw this scene, he would most likely agree to all her requests without hesitation.

But Ian didn't do that.

The friendship between Shuten Douji and Ibaraki Douji made him realize that many things in this world cannot be judged by a single impression.

It’s like ghosts are evil, but they also have a kind side.

Only after a deep understanding can you have enough say.
