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

"Lord Abe has just gone in a little bit."

"what?!"

Shuten-doji realized that he had underestimated his enemy.

But it all seemed too late.

There were some strange marks on the back of the female ghost.

"what--!"

【You fulfilled your promise. 】

[Shuten-doji completed her first experience——but it was a little bit exciting for her. 】

[The ghost king of Mount Oe was completely conquered by you. ]

【This is the first time she begs for mercy.】

[But you don't have any intention of torturing her. ]

[After she has tasted the delicious food, you end it all by leaving her a warm meal.]

[Shuten Douji collapsed from exhaustion, and Ibaraki Douji helped you clean up the traces on the magic weapon. ]

[You carried them back to the room.]

[They lie down beside you, one on the left and one on the right.]

"Why, are you still scared?

Ian looked at Shuten-doji beside him.

"I told you not to try."

"Who said we were scared?"

Shuten-doji, whose lower body was trembling, held Ian's left hand and spoke toughly with a flushed face.

"It was me who conquered the uncle, how can you say I'm afraid?"

"But Shuten--"

Ibaraki Douji, who was holding Ian's right hand, stuck his head out.

"You just shouted, 'Please let me go, Lord Abe' and 'I know I was wrong'."

"I heard it clearly."

"Ibaraki!" Shuten-doji was ashamed, "If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb!"

"You two really know each other well, so you won't be lonely."

Ian said this while feeling the body temperature of the two little ghosts.

"That's great - I was worried you wouldn't be comfortable living here."

"..."

Shuten-doji buried his head in Ian's arms and muttered softly.

"I'm not that careless."

"Uncle, have you been nice to us... We all know it."

"But uncle——"

Shuten-doji looked up at the man beside him.

"Can we ask you a quick question?"

"what is the problem?"

"that is--"

Shuten-doji held Ian's hand tightly, like a spoiled child.

"If I change my appearance in the future, you won't pretend not to know me, right?"

"Why do you have such a strange question?"

"Just promise us first!"

"Okay, I understand."

Ian looked at Shuten-doji beside him as if he was coaxing a child.

"I promise you, I will never pretend not to know you."

"That's good!"

[Shuten-doji is not joking. 】

[She does have another identity.]

[That is the nickname of "Ibuki-douji".]

[However, after staying in the environment of Dajiangshan for a long time, she gradually forgot this name. ]

[Now, as "Shuten-doji", she hopes to do something for you, so she thought of this name. ]

【only--】

[Things don't seem to be as easy as Shuten-doji thought. 】

I can't remember.

The side of him as "Ibuki Douji".

The Ghost King of Oeyama sat in the corner of the room, covering his head tightly, looking quite uncomfortable.

How come you can't remember it?

Obviously, they all came by themselves...

"Shuten, what's wrong with you?"

Ibaraki Douji looked at his friend's painful expression, then came over to her side and sat down.

"I see that you seem to be in pain."

"..."

Shuten-douji looked around and confirmed that no one other than Ibaraki-douji was present before continuing:

"Ibaraki, I... seem to have forgotten something."

"Forgot something?"

"Yeah." Shuten-doji nodded, "I forgot how to become my powerful self again."

"this--"

Ibaraki Douji pursed his chin and thought for a while, then answered:

"Then why don't we go find Lord Abe... If it's him, he will definitely know what to do, right?"

"Don't!"

Shuten-douji grabbed Ibaraki-douji.

"How can I go to Uncle at this time? I will only cause trouble for him!"

"Let's think about what to do..."

Seeing his friend's distressed look, Ibaraki Douji frowned.

She looked at the question again and came up with an answer.

"Then, Shuten, could it be that you have been drinking too much that caused this to happen?"

"alcoholism?"

"Yeah." Ibaraki Douji looked at Shuten Douji.

"Ever since I met Shuten, you've never gone a day without drinking, right?"

“I think that might be the root of the problem.”

"This……"

Shuten Douji recalled and found that what Ibaraki Douji said was right.

I really like drinking.

Especially after arriving in Heian-kyo, thanks to the special care of the Great Onmyoji, I have been able to come into contact with countless fine wines.

And he doesn't take care of himself much.

He brought as much as he needed to drink.

"So that's how it is..."

Shuten-doji, who finally came to a conclusion, lowered his head.

Her throat moved slightly, as if she was thinking about some difficult decision.

Finally, she said:

"We understand."

"Let's not drink alcohol from now on!"

[This is not an easy thing for Shuten-doji. ]

[After all, this is a habit that has been developed over the years. ]

[If you want to change it, it can't be done in just a few words. 】

[But for you, she is willing to go through this. ]

one day;

two days;

Three days;

A month has passed.

Shuten-doji hasn't touched alcohol for a whole month.

She could feel sparks coming out of her lips.

but--

She knew she must not drink.

I haven’t accomplished what I promised to the uncle!

Shuten-douji continued to pray to his other self, Ibuki-douji.

"please!"

"No matter what, please help us!"

"We don't want to be considered a liar by the uncle!"

Shuten-douji had never had such a strong wish in his heart - and it had lasted for a whole month.

Although if you trace back the roots of this wish, you will find that it is something very outrageous.

A ghost summoned his powerful side just to take the blame for his favorite Onmyoji.

If I tell this to others, I will probably become the object of ridicule by hundreds of ghosts.

But even so, Shuten-doji hopes that his wish will come true.

She likes him.

So I don't want to see him looking distressed.

"please."

"Please respond to us once!"

Shuten-doji bowed his head heavily in the direction of the sunrise.

Perhaps her sincerity touched God, or perhaps some other coincidence happened at this time.
