"it is good."
Looking at Minamoto no Raikou's receding figure, Ian knew that this was the last time he would see her go out.
After hesitating for a while, he said:
"Yakou."
"what happened?"
Minamoto no Raikou turned around and looked at his lover with a puzzled look.
After all, he rarely stops himself like this.
"nothing."
Ian looked at her in front of him.
"I just want to remind you to eat well in the future."
“Don’t work on an empty stomach just because you are busy with official duties.”
"..."
Minamoto no Raikou didn't quite understand what this meant.
But she still nodded seriously.
"Well, I will."
[Minamoto no Raikou's report on the demon-killing plan was not blocked at all - after all, the current ruling Fujiwara no Tokuko is your lover.]
[From reporting to being ready, it only took one morning. 】
[Of course, this actually has something to do with your prior arrangements - after all, you have been planning this.]
【The people of Heian-kyō cheered. 】
[After all, they have suffered from ghosts for a long time. 】
【But they don’t know that this is also the day you die. 】
Night falls.
The howling of ghosts echoed in Heian-kyo.
According to the previous deployment, ordinary people have already retreated back to their homes.
They used the talismans prepared in advance by the Yin-Yang masters to avoid the ghosts that looked extremely ferocious.
As the commander-in-chief of the entire operation, Minamoto no Raikou held his knife and stood at the front of the team.
"Let's go!"
As she shouted these words, the team composed of Onmyoji and foot soldiers started to move on the empty streets of Heian-kyo.
Minamoto no Raikou walked into the night alone - having learned the art of swordsmanship to kill demons, she did not need help from others.
One.
two.
Three.
Minamoto no Raikou did not forget the swordsmanship that his lover taught him because of his busy political affairs.
She could handle ghosts alone faster than a group of people.
"Ghosts are really nasty."
"They come to invade Heian-kyō time and again - is there another place like Ōeyama that is nurturing them?"
Minamoto no Raikou thought so, but the speed of swinging the sword did not slow down at all.
She has to kill all the ghosts as soon as possible.
Walk around the corner.
Minamoto no Raikou came to a somewhat familiar location - this was the place where she had killed Tu Bi.
Taking this as an opportunity, she became the wife of her sweetheart.
Many beautiful images suddenly appeared in Minamoto no Raikou's mind.
And in this trance, a dark shadow appeared in front of her.
There was a bang.
Flames burst out from the black shadow's body, a sinister and terrifying heat.
Almost instantly, Minamoto no Raikou realized that this was a very powerful ghost.
but--
Why does it feel familiar?
But before he had time to think about it, the black shadow threw a fireball at Minamoto no Raikou.
The heat passed by her cheek and fell on the street.
A whoosh.
A curtain of fire rose behind Minamoto no Raikou.
She knew what this meant—an inevitable battle.
And it seems that the strength of this ghost should be much stronger than the previous one.
This is going to be a tough battle.
But she was not afraid.
"Drink——!"
The warrior raised his sword and rushed towards the monster in front of him.
however--
Things did not develop as Minamoto no Raikou had expected.
The sword penetrated the black shadow's body, extinguishing the flames as well.
All sounds are silent.
The overly simple battle surprised Minamoto no Raikou a little.
But she didn't have time to think.
Because she still remembered what her husband had said: "There is absolutely no room for hesitation in getting rid of ghosts."
Minamoto no Yorimitsu drew his sword.
She took one last look at the motionless black shadow on the ground, put away all her doubts, and walked into the darkness again.
Everything seemed so normal.
It was as if only a ghost had died.
[You died on the night when hundreds of demons entered the capital.]
[Minamoto no Raikou will never find out that she killed you herself. ]
【This is the best outcome for you. 】
[The talent Depleted Chalice+ has been replaced with Overflowing Chalice+: Your death refills the Chalice. ]
[Minamoto no Raikou gained the power to suppress the Bull-Headed Devil through your sacrifice. 】
[She will never become Ugly Gozen again. ]
[Shuten-douji and Ibaraki-douji took back your body with great sorrow.]
[After crying for a few days, they buried you at the highest point of Mt. Oe, and never returned to Heian-kyo.]
【After that day, you "disappeared". 】
【One day, two days, one month, one year. 】
【You never appeared in Heian-kyō again. 】
[Almost everyone thinks that you died in the one-hundred-demon night parade. ]
【Only Minamoto no Raikou doesn’t believe in such things at all. 】
【She is still waiting for your return. 】
"Today is the day I met your foster father."
"When he comes back, you have to listen carefully to all the glorious things he did back then!"
Minamoto no Raikou said this with a smile on his face, and then he glanced at the four adopted sons present, his eyes becoming puzzled.
"What's wrong with you?"
"Why don't you say anything?"
"..."
Bube Jiwu's lips moved slightly - he wanted to tell his stepmother in front of him that the majestic Onmyoji would never come back.
But before Bube Susumu could speak, Watanabe Tsuna stopped him.
He shook his head, and then with a smile he said to his adoptive mother who took him in out of kindness:
"Nothing, stepmother."
“The four of us brothers are looking forward to that story.”
"Yeah." Minamoto no Raikou nodded with satisfaction.
"Tsuna, Jiwu, Sadamitsu, Kintoki, you will definitely be very surprised then!"
"He... is an extremely powerful Onmyoji!"
Minamoto no Raikou said all this with great enthusiasm, just like the girl who admired the great Onmyoji back then.
"Come, have a good meal."
“No matter how busy you are, you can’t work on an empty stomach.”
[Heian-kyo has not stopped because of your passing. 】
【Spring goes and winter comes, year after year. 】
【Tamamonomae gave birth to a child in Heian Palace. 】
【After years of training, he became the 76th emperor, and was later known as "Emperor Konoe". 】
[He is strong, intelligent and energetic - it seems that he was not originally like this.]
【After he came to power, the government quickly turned to the Genji clan. 】
[The dispute between the Heike and Minamoto clans that had lasted for many years ended quietly. 】
[The future of Heian-kyō is moving in a good direction. 】
【But no one expected that "Fujiwara no Tokuko" would become a monk at this time. 】
[She rejected all requests to stay and came to Kongo Shoin Palace. ]
"donor."
The abbot looked at Tamamonomae in front of him.
"You don't seem to be an ordinary person."
Tamamonomae was stunned for a moment.
"Then I can't cross this door?"
"Do not."
The monk shook his head.
"Buddha not only saves mortals, but also saves ghosts and demons."
"But if you enter this door, you may never be able to return to the mortal world again."
"Really? That would be great."
