My mother's love song

The crowd, who were laughing and talking just now, suddenly became agitated after hearing this.

Men, women, young and old, all dressed in kimonos ran in panic in opposite directions, shouting and shoving each other as they ran away from Rhodes.

"Hey, hey, hey... Isn't this supposed to be a peaceful and tranquil Heian-kyō? What on earth are you samurai masters doing?

But it’s good, because this way the road becomes much wider.”

Rhodes held his sleeves and continued to walk leisurely towards the playground.

Although there is a large barrier set up by the Onmyoji in Kyoto that can keep all kinds of monsters away, it can actually only stop the vast majority of villains.

Facing a monster with truly extraordinary power, a barrier covering the entire city would not be of any use.

Coincidentally, on Mount Oe, not far from Kyoto, there lived two female ghosts who were immune to any barrier set up by Onmyoji.

One of them was named Ibaraki Douji.

The leader of Oeyama, Type-Moon's famous problem child, Ibaraki Douji.

Rhodes had met her once in the seventh singularity.

After being summoned by Gilgamesh as the Berserker among the Seven Riders, Ibaraki Douji immediately abandoned his duties as a Servant, ran to Mount Ebifu, became the king of the mountain, and recruited a large number of magical beasts as his followers.

She still did not leave after the crisis of the seventh singularity ended. In the end, she was severely punished for intruding on Rhodes and his mothers' tryst at the seaside and was kicked back to the Throne of Heroes.

By the way, according to the rumors Rhode heard from the prostitutes, Ibaraki Douji seemed to be a hybrid between a demon and a human, just like Tomoe Gozen.

The other one on Oeyama is even more heavyweight.

If Ibaraki Douji is the Last Boss of Oeyama, then she is the Extra Boss, the final boss of the route that can only be unlocked after clearing the level without taking any damage.

The ghosts that originally lived alone would gather on Mt. Dajiang, contrary to their usual behavior, because of her existence.

Shuten-doji, who is known as one of the three great incarnations of Japan along with the white-faced, golden-haired nine-tailed fox, is the closest to the demon country ghost praised by the demons. She is praised as a king who does not consider himself a king, and an invincible supernatural being.

Recently, Shuten Douji and Ibaraki Douji would come to Kyoto to cause trouble every once in a while.

The reason why the imperial court did not send troops to suppress them was not because of fear, but because compared with the power they commanded the ghosts, the evil they did was really insignificant.

"Anyway, this time he came to steal the wine and money and kidnap two girls to drink. He is not a cannibal. Every time he captured someone, he released them unharmed... although he would be left with severe PTSD.

Why not just distribute supplies and maids to them every month?"

Rhode hesitated whether to take a detour through the alley to the entertainment area. He really didn't want to have anything to do with the two female ghosts, nor did he want to disturb them from causing trouble in Kyoto.

Shuten-douji is a powerful enemy that even he finds difficult to deal with, and Ibaraki-douji is a stubborn and vengeful kid. Once he is entangled by them, his carefree life in Heian-kyo will be completely over.

It's not that we can't teach these lawless people a lesson, but...

Can you imagine that when you are having a profound conversation with the Oiran, two female ghosts suddenly rush into the VIP room, knock you over with the tatami, and then escape through the window laughing! ! !

Rhodes definitely didn't want to go through this situation again.

He turned and moved towards the alley at the side.

"There's an old Chinese saying that goes 'Wei Xi material things', Wei Junjie."

At this moment, Rhodes collided with a woman who was walking quickly along the avenue, and the woman fell on her back with a cry.

"Ugh...it hurts!"

Why do you fall down when you are touched? Are you Lin Daiyu or Cristiano Ronaldo?

Rhodes glanced at her out of the corner of his eye. She was a silver-haired woman wearing a gorgeous dress.

Although I couldn't see her face clearly, I could tell from her posture that she was definitely a beauty. Could she be some kind of otaku?

"Ouch... My legs can't stand up anymore..."

The woman covered her ankle, lay on the ground with a painful expression and looked at her calf, as if she had sprained her foot just now.

Seeing this, Rhodes sighed and squatted in front of her.

“…There’s really nothing I can do.”

But please don't fall in love with me, okay?

Mumbling to himself, he placed his hands on the woman's ankles.

"Ah! What are you doing?"

"Be quiet."

Rhodes performed healing magic while speaking suggestive words.

The redness and swelling on the woman's ankle, which was enveloped by the light, gradually disappeared.

"Wow, that's amazing! The pain is gone, is this Yin-Yang magic...?"

Rhodes did not answer her question, but stood up after healing his injuries.

Now he has the magic power to make any woman fall in love, so it is better to reduce contact with innocent and decent women.

Rhodes pulled up the woman sitting on the ground and said calmly, "Be careful next time."

"Ah, yes. Thank you, young man."

She stood up and nodded slightly to Rhodes.

What a big deal, Rhodes thought to himself, shouldn't he bow 90 degrees according to the Japanese etiquette?

He looked at the woman.

Finally, at this moment, the two looked into each other's eyes for the first time.

Then they both stood there in a daze.

As expected, the woman opened her mouth slightly after seeing the boy's handsome face.

“Wow…what a cute child, no, it would be rude to describe him as cute!

This is the first time I have seen such a pretty and handsome boy. "

too exaggerated.

But compared to Rhodes's reaction, it was nothing.

"M-Marie Antoinette!?"

Rhodes shouted and stared in disbelief at the beautiful woman in gorgeous clothes.

Her long silver hair was tied into two ponytails, her pure and dignified beauty revealed her elegance, and she had a pair of light blue eyes that were as noble as sapphires.

Be it her exotic beauty or her graceful and charming temperament, her hairstyle, hair color, eye color... no matter how you look at her, she is Marie Antoinette in a kimono!

"What a joke! Is this the end of my dream of achieving eternal fame through literature?"

A desperate thought flashed through Rhode's mind that this was not real history, but a singularity where a funny event festival was being held.

"Mali Anto... Ilete?"

The woman murmured the strange name curiously, and then said, "What is that? It sounds like the name of a delicious Japanese confectionery!"

"It's not Japanese confectionery, it's cake."

She blinked: "Egg...high?"

Rhodes narrowed his eyes seriously, observed and asked, "Are you really not Marie Antoinette?"

Yes, very similar.

The silver-haired woman shook her head: "My name is Teng... ahem, my name is Ading. I got separated from my companions because of the commotion just now."

Seriously, this idiot Zunzi...what on earth was he thinking when he said he wanted to catch ghosts?

She murmured softly, and then said to Rhodes very politely: "Thank you very much for helping me just now. If possible, can you tell me your name?

I would like to visit you sometime to express my gratitude to you more formally.

"Genji."

Rhode immediately gave the fake name he had just obtained: "Just call me Lord of Light. I appreciate your kindness, it's just a small favor, there's no need to visit me."

After hearing the name, Ading covered his lips with his hands and said in surprise: "You are from Genji... No wonder you can use such magical skills..."

No, it should be the Fujiwara clan, right?

Rhodes thought that after all, the woman who gave me the name was Fujiwara.

The woman named Ading was not scared even when she heard the name of the Genji, which represented the highest class of Japanese samurai. Instead, she was more interested in the name than the clan name.

"Lord of Light... hehe, your name really lives up to your name.

You are just like your name, a shining and beautiful gentleman."

After obtaining the skill of Charm EX, Rhodes was fed up with hearing such praise.

But he soon discovered something unusual. How could this woman stand and talk to me normally? How come she wasn't fascinated by my extraordinary charm?

Normally, when a girl meets Rhode face to face, her expression will be dazed, her legs will be clamped together, and her mind will be blank. However, she just politely complimented Rhode's appearance, and there was nothing unusual other than that.

Putting aside those who are naturally strong against magic or women like Xiangzi who have learned Yin-Yang magic, how could an ordinary woman like her resist my demonic charm?

You know, at this moment, Rhodes' body still has the lingering scent of the beast.

It's impossible that this Japanese cake has resistance to Class Beast, right?

After coming to this era, she was the first woman who did not fall in love with Rhodes at first sight.

This subtle feeling made Rhodes' heart move.

What you can't get is always the best, and this sentence also applies to him.

Woman, you have succeeded in arousing my interest...

The young man stared at her face, already secretly figuring out how to capture this impregnable castle.

At this time, Rhodes did not know that the person standing in front of him would be Queen Fujiwara no Sadako of the Heian period.

But even if he knew, it would not change his determination to make this woman his own.

"Lord of Light, what was that magic you used just now? It was truly magical." The silver-haired noble lady asked with a smile.

If it was Rhode from before, he would definitely be very impatient, but now his attitude changed 180 degrees, and he replied gently like a Sichuan opera performance: "Miss Dingzi, what you just did was a magic."

Although I really want to say it is magic, it is too difficult to explain, and fairy art sounds bigger.

Dingzi was surprised and said, "Immortal arts!? Lord Guang, have you ever been to China?"

Rhodes nodded and said nonchalantly, "Yeah, I stayed there for a while. I also learned magic and martial arts."

"I see, you're still so young... and you've already been to the mainland.

It's incredible that he has learned magic at such a young age. He is so amazing."

Stingzi tilted his head thoughtfully.

"Lord of Light, I actually have a friend. She...Ah! My companions are here!"

She looked over Rhode's shoulder and excitedly called out to the boy behind him, "Zunzi! Shonagon! I'm here!"

"I should go." Rhodes said suddenly.

"Hey? Please wait a moment, Lord of Light. You are my benefactor, please allow me to introduce you to them..."

"No, I'm not very interested in them."

As Rhodes spoke coldly, he suddenly tightened his grip on Dingzi's hand. This sudden and extraordinary action made the cheerful lady pale with fright.

"Light, Lord of Light!?"

"We will meet again, Miss Ading." Rhodes asked, looking at her face seriously.

Perhaps it was because she rarely had physical contact with men, the silver-haired lady's cheeks turned red.

She said with an uncertain look in her eyes: "Huh? Eh? Wait... No, I don't know... Maybe it won't work..."

Rod: “Why?”

Dingzi turned his head and said intermittently: "Because of that... I'm afraid it's not convenient for me... Uh, anyway, it's impossible to achieve. Sorry!"

Rhodes shook his head: "You don't need to apologize. We will definitely meet again, Miss Ading."

"..."

Dingzi looked over in surprise, and saw a determined light flashing in the boy's eyes.

Her mind went blank, she felt her heartbeat quickening faster than ever before, and her cheeks getting hotter.
