No matter how monstrous the last eight gods are, they must be fought by Raikou.

"Is that what you think, Raikou?"

"Ah."

She nodded vigorously.

"Great! It seems the other party specifically mentioned you."

"Hey?"

Raikou was stunned.

"You said the other party... Where is that enemy now?"

Asked subconsciously.

Then, the moment he blurted out the question, Minamoto no Raikou began to regret asking the question itself.

Then, Rhode's words deepened this regret.

"The last eight general gods have already been here."

Rhode pressed against Raikou's body from behind, buried his face in her long hair, and held her waist with his left hand.

Raikou's pupils trembled.

"Wait, wait... Lord of Light..."

Then, she saw a peculiarly shaped curved dagger appear in the boy's free right hand.

Different from the style of Japanese wakizashi, these weapons do not belong to Tang or India. They are magical weapons from a more distant country.

"Lord of Light, what are you going to do..."

Being hugged from behind by a young man holding a weapon, Minamoto no Yorimitsu asked, at a loss and unable to move.

"If you hate me, you can always push me away..."

The young man said this while holding the golden short sword in reverse, with the tip of the blade pointed at Raikou.

"You are so cunning... You know I can't do it... Mother loves you the most!"

"I'm so happy that you think so, Raikou..."

Rhodes stood on tiptoe and bit her earlobe with his teeth: "I'm the same, I love mom the most."

"...!"

Minamoto no Raikou watched helplessly as the ominous short sword named [Gold Invasion], a magical gift, pierced his body.

……

……

……

The dagger was deeply inserted between Minamoto no Raikou's breasts.

She neither screamed out in pain nor shed blood, and her body simply stopped trembling in fear.

As if time had stopped, Lai Guang stood there in a daze, looking forward.

Look to the end of the room.

The women there had the same majestic beauty as Minamoto no Raikou, with Japanese armor and tights wrapped around their bodies, outlining their sleek curves full of tension.

What was different from Raikou was that the woman's eyes flashed with a bewitching red light, and her smiling crimson lips revealed a hint of cruelty.

"The last of the Eight Generals, the position of Jupiter, Tai Sui God, Chou Yuzen."

Minamoto no Raikou's demonic personality was forcibly removed from her body by Rhodes.

"…………"

How long did Minamoto no Raikou and Ugly Gozen stare at each other?

In Rashomon, which is outside the ordinary world, the concept of time is extremely confused.

After a long time, Minamoto no Raikou moved his gaze away from Ugly Gozen and turned towards Rhodes.

Rhodes was no longer behind her.

After stripping off the ugly Gozen, he came to the seat of honor on the side of the room.

At the center of the distance between Minamoto no Raikou and Ushigozen, the young man sat casually cross-legged, lazily supporting his cheek with the back of his hand.

"Ah, is that so? Is that so? The new leader of Mount Oe is the Lord of Light."

Minamoto no Raikou spoke softly about his inner feelings.

She touched upon the truth behind the strange feeling that had been vaguely present since she entered Rashomon.

In the process of conquering Rashomon, every ghost they met showed a strange and strong obsession with Rhode.

Perhaps others couldn't see it, but as a mother, Raikou couldn't possibly miss the fire burning in the eyes of those ghost girls when they looked at her children.

It was an obscene look that was a mixture of lust, desire and adoration.

The only person who can make them do this is the king of Oeyama, Tianmo Xiongming.

Moreover, if Genji is Amano Yumei, it can also explain why Kiichi Hōgan appears among the sixth.

From the very beginning, Oeyama's submission to the imperial court was a political show.

Minamoto no Raikou and the Four Heavenly Kings are just chess pieces on the chessboard. The ones manipulating everything behind the scenes are the Lord of Light and the Emperor.

Because the ghosts of Mount Oe have surrendered to the imperial court, the young emperor will gain a good reputation in the court because of this.

At the same time, the two parties who signed the peace treaty, Lord of Light and Demon Yumei, will also be praised, which is equivalent to one person getting two merits.

Moreover, from now on, Oeyama will exist legally as the autonomous territory of Genji, the emperor's favorite.

There is a strange army stationed on a mountain less than 100 miles from Kyoto that can sweep across Japan. What does this mean?

The Fujiwara family's control over the imperial court will probably end here, and from now on the world will be ruled by the emperor and the Genji.

"This is a rare opportunity. Raikou should also submit to me."

Rhodes stared at Lai Guang with a condescending gaze and said lightly: "I can climb very high.

Soon Onigashima will be under my command and become my private territory, and in this way, I will become the de facto largest warlord in Japan.

His official title is… oh yeah, Second Rank. Second Rank Right Minister.

The official position is the highest honor and the pinnacle of power that a Genji person can reach, and the elder Genji is the Shogun. "

"........."

Lai Guang was silent, and Rhodes continued speaking in a condescending tone.

"Yakou, your father is getting old, and it's about time for him to retire and enjoy his life, leaving it to you, the pillar of the Genji clan, to take on the responsibility.

"The garrison general Minamoto no Raikou... well, that sounds like a good pronunciation. As long as you nod, I will arrange it for you. What do you think?"

"Lord of Light."

"Ok?"

Minamoto no Raikou stared at Rhodes closely, a relieved smile appearing on the corners of his mouth.

"Although I felt you were extraordinary when I first met you, you are still far beyond my imagination...

Before I knew it, it had grown to a place that was beyond my reach.

Hehe, you are really amazing...Shogun, I feel a little lonely when I think about calling you Genji-sama from now on."

Minamoto no Yorimitsu's gentle face was filled with emotion.

"but……"

The female warrior changed the subject and her expression became serious.

"Lord of Light, you are wrong. Humans and demons cannot live in peace. What you have done will only bring destruction upon yourself, because demons are the enemies of humans who are evil and cunning by nature.

Even if the ghosts are afraid of your power and submit to you now, one day they will kill you when you are not paying attention.

Mom, I can’t allow this to happen, so…”

"I'm sorry to interrupt you while you're preaching.

But, Raikou, you are no longer the child's mother."

came a voice.

It's Ugly Gozen.

She said with a charming smile: "From now on, the relationship between you and the Lord of Light is that of master and retainer, and I will be his mother. The Lord of Light has decided on our child."

"Lord of Light!?" Minamoto no Raikou widened his pupils in disbelief.

"Don't you agree?"

Rhodes raised his eyebrows.

He said with a teasing and evil smile: "If you are not convinced, then let's fight. The final battle of the Eight Generals, Raikou and Ushigozen, the winner can be my mother."

“Hehehe…As you command.”

Ugly Gozen smiled happily, while Raikou bit his lips with a serious look on his face and remained silent.

"This is just what you want, Raikou. You have always wanted to eliminate Ushigozen, right? I allow you to do so."

As he said this, Rhodes took out two swords from the void.

One was called Onikiri Yasutsuna and the other was called Spider-Kiri, both were thrown in front of Ushigozen and Minamoto no Raikou.

"Pick one of them up, and fight Ugly Gozen right here, Raikou.

Kill Ugly Gozen and take me from her if you can."

"……I reject."

Raikou simply glanced at the sword on the ground, then looked away, and then gave a reply that surprised both Rhodes and Ugly Gozen.

"!?"

She had always hated Ugly Gozen and rejected the demon blood in her body, but she actually refused the opportunity to fight Ugly Gozen to the death.

Cold sweat oozed from Rhodes' forehead.

Although he looked very calm on the surface, he was actually a little panicked inside. Minamoto no Raikou's answer was completely beyond the script he had thought of.

According to Rhodes' plan, Minamoto no Raikou will have a life-and-death duel with Ugly Gozen in front of him.

Both of them have exerted their potential to the limit. The two bull women fought until the sky and the earth changed color and thunder roared, smashing the foothold of Rashomon to pieces.

Rhodes also fell into the abyss because of this.

Afterwards, Minamoto no Raikou and Ugly Gozen worked together to rescue the boy. The two also understood each other in the battle and cooperation, and shook hands and made peace.

The plan that Rod was thinking about to make Minamoto no Raikou change his mind about demons and reconcile with Ugly Gozen was probably just such a cheesy family-friendly plot.

However, his plan went wrong at the first step.

Raikou actually refused to duel with Ugly Gozen.

Rhode was stunned for a moment, then wiped his sweat and said, "Well, if you are worried that killing Ugly Gozen will lead to your own destruction, then that is unnecessary worry.

I will grant a new life to the winner among you. If you want, eternal life is not impossible, okay?

After all, she is my mother, and I would be very troubled if she died young before reaching 200 years old."

Minamoto no Raikou shook his head.

"No, that's not the reason."

"What is that?" Ugly Yuzen asked in confusion with a frown.

Lai Guang said: "Ugly Gozen, you are free to become the mother of this child. I will not blame you or stop you..."

"Oh?"

"And... maybe you are really more suitable to be the mother of this child than me."

Raikou said with some sadness: "You understood the troubles of the Lord of Light and were willing to share his burden, but I just kept denying him and even now I still doubt the Lord of Light's actions.

If you become the mother of this child, the Lord of Light will surely be happier in the future."
