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

"Mr. Abe, do you know how to clean the house?"

"What you said is true." Ian laughed bitterly, "Onmyoji also have to have a daily life, right?"

"Besides -"

"Even if you don't know how to do it, as long as you are willing to learn, you will definitely be able to master it."

"Yeah?"

"Come on~ let's start our cleaning!"

[You and Tamamonomae begin to clean up this old mansion. ]

[It's not complicated, but it's hard work.]

【After all, there are only two of you. 】

[You were busy from the afternoon till the evening, and finally managed to clean it.]

【You are deeply aware that this is not an easy task. 】

"Finally done."

Ian breathed a sigh of relief as he looked at the mansion in front of him, which, although not completely new, had become slightly more pleasing to the eye.

"Yes, it is."

Tamamonomae brought a basin of hot water with a clean cloth floating in it.

"Mr. Abe, please let me wipe your sweat off."

"..."

Before Ian could answer Tamamonomae, the other party had already taken the initiative to wring out the cloth and began to wipe the sweat from his head.

It was a cautious and extremely gentle look.

"Ah."

After wiping Ian's sweat, Tamamonomae pulled the cloth, supported her waist with both hands, and looked very happy.

"Okay~"

"In this case, Mr. Abe will be much more handsome!"

【You realize that Tamamonomae is not the gloomy type by nature.】

【She is actually a very lively girl. 】

[It makes you wonder what she went through along the way.]

[You feel that your decision has some meaning beyond exchanging benefits.]

"That'll be it for now."

Ian stood up.

The tall Onmyoji opened the shoji door a crack.

He faced the setting sun outside and squinted his eyes slightly.

"I have to go back first."

"Miss Zao Nu, please be careful."

"Migu!"

Tamamonomae nodded.

Having found temporary shelter, she indeed looked a lot more relaxed than before.

"Be careful on the road, please?"

Just after she said this, she suddenly realized something.

"Um, Mr. Abe, can I ask you for one more favor?"

"...Say it."

"that is--"

Tamamonomae stretched out a finger and pointed at herself.

"From now on, please don't call me 'Algae Woman' anymore, Mr. Abe."

"That is a name that is very uncomfortable to me."

"Then what should I call you?" Ian turned around and looked at the fox demon.

Tamamonomae smiled slightly.

"Please call me Xiaoyu~"

"okay."

[You left the mansion under Tamamonomae's gaze.]

【You returned to the mansion you and Minamoto no Yorimitsu lived in. 】

[As mentioned before, Minamoto no Raikou has become even busier. 】

[She did not return to this mansion that belongs to you at the original time.]

【You decide to use this time to sort out your thoughts. 】

There should be no need to doubt Tamamonomae's origins anymore.

But the crux of the problem lies in the strange attitude of the Emperor of Heian-kyo towards it.

To be fair.

Although he had almost no contact with the Pope, Ian didn't think that he would be the kind of person who would go on such a high-profile hunt for a fox demon (or should I say woman) in the mountains.

After all, if that were the case.

As the Lord of Mino, Minamoto no Raikou would certainly have complaints - she was a person who hoped to revive the Minamoto clan, so naturally she was unwilling to be ordered around by a mediocre lord.

But if you think along this line of thought -

There will be a new problem before Ian.

Apart from the fact that she is a woman, what else could possibly make the French emperor order a massive manhunt?

The Great Onmyoji always feels that things are not as simple as they seem.

Also.

Although he agreed to help Tamamonomae, Ian had no idea at the moment.

How to make the French emperor stop chasing?

How can I get the mirror back for Tamamonomae?

These are not easy things to do and are accompanied by great risks.

but--

If this could give me the chance to "contact" Yuan Manzhong, I would have to give it a try no matter what.

That is the key to preventing Minamoto no Raikou from becoming Ugly Gozen.

Ian rejects that future.

You have sorted out your thoughts.

【You find that a lot of time has passed. 】

【Minamoto no Raikou returned to the mansion. 】

[She looked very tired - it seemed that the affairs of the court had indeed increased a lot.]

"Ma'am, you're back."

Although he looked very tired, after seeing Ian, Minamoto no Raikou still forced himself to greet Ian.

"Well, husband, I'm back."

After saying this, she hugged Ian.

For her, this is the most relaxing moment of the day.

but--

Minamoto no Raikou quickly raised his head.

There was a hint of confusion in her beautiful purple eyes.

"Husband, what did you do today?"

"Eh?

Ian had never expected that Minamoto no Raikou would suddenly bring up this topic.

"Ma'am, what do you mean by that?"

"My husband smells wrong."

Minamoto no Raikou stared at Ian and replied.

"My husband, you are not usually like this - you must have done something and worked up a sweat, which is why you are like this."

"Husband, are you doing something secretly?"

"..."

Only then did Ian realize that when Yuan Laiguang hugged him, he was not just enjoying the action, the smell was also a part of it.

But he wasn't panicked.

"Ma'am, have you forgotten?"

"Because of you, I now have to lead some foot soldiers on patrol. Perhaps that's why it has become something that Madam is not familiar with, right?"

"……right."

Minamoto no Raikou knocked his head and gave an apologetic smile.

"There were so many things to do that I forgot about this."

"but--"

The warrior raised his head, looked at the great Onmyoji in front of him, and said very seriously:

"Husband, please don't be so intimate with other women."

"otherwise--"

"I will definitely kill that man."

Ian was about to answer when he found that Minamoto no Raikou had fallen asleep on his chest.

It seems that she is really exhausted today.

But this does not affect the fact that what she said just now were all her true words.

It seems that it is better not to mention Tamamonomae's affairs to her.

To prevent any unpredictable problems from arising later.

Seeing Minamoto no Raikou lying in his arms, so exhausted that even his breathing became rapid, Ian felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

He stroked her hair gently and then kissed her lightly on her fair forehead.

"Do not worry."

"Madam, you will definitely have some leisure time in the future."

[The French Emperor's manhunt continues.]

[Thanks to your protection, Tamamonomae did not encounter any danger. ]

[After all, the place where she lives is a mansion purchased in your name. ]

[The foot soldiers in charge of the investigation, even if they didn't expect you, have to give Minamoto no Raikou some face. ]

【But you didn't let your guard down. 】

[You know the Emperor will definitely not give up.]
