My mother's love song

"I can't even see Ugly Gozen lately! It's all your fault! Why do you think I kept a female dragon like you who can only wag its tail and beg for mercy?"

"Please forgive me... ouch"

"Hongye, you are not just trying to fool me!?"

"No, that's not the case... How dare I... Master, um"

"Why on earth is that? Don't just stick your butt up and enjoy it. Explain it to me!"

"Please...please forgive me. I will definitely negotiate properly in the future, my Lord~~~~"

the other side.

"…………"

The crane covered its eyes with its wings, and with its cheeks burning, it peeked at the scene in the corner through the gaps between its feathers.

how come……

How is it possible that the Lord of Light is a boy who would abuse a woman older than himself...

Although it's hard to believe, your eyes don't lie.

As gentle as the boy usually is, he is now as rude as he is gentle.

Although the woman seemed to be enjoying it, even if they were in love, this behavior was too extreme...

This is probably what is called an idol collapse...

Crane felt extremely complicated after seeing the unexpected and "manly" side of the Lord of Light.

"But why... the sadistic Lord of Light is also so dazzling."

He stared at the two people in the room intently, thinking quietly with a blushing face.

"...I still like it after all."

Chapter 655: The Big Female Ghost Violently Kills the Little Female Ghost

At dinner time later, Xiangzi readily agreed to Rod's request to keep the picked-up crane at home.

"You don't need to discuss this with me. I have long regarded the Lord of Light as the male owner of this family... ahem, w-nothing!"

Xiangzi blushed and lowered her beautiful head.

I came to discuss this with you just to see this beautiful view, Rhodes thought to himself.

“Although we are going to keep it, but after two days its injuries are completely healed, it will fly away on its own, right?

Hongye's medical skills are trustworthy. It woke up just before dinner. After a check-up, it seems to be fine... The reason why it didn't fly away directly might be that it was scared by the earth spider.

Well, I don’t know why it jumped into my arms as soon as it woke up. Phew, what a clingy child. ”

Hearing him say this, Xiangzi and Musashi both looked at the white crane lying on the boy's head.

Oh...it turns out you didn't put it on your head on purpose?

Considering that it was Rod, it seemed more like his style to raise the Pokémon he picked up on his head.

“That’s true.”

Xiangzi agreed, saying that creatures like cranes probably wouldn't like the noisy life in the city.

"Hey, Lord of Light. Have you ever heard of the story of the crane repaying a favor?"

After Xiangzi asked this, Rhodes said, "Don't underestimate me, Miss Xiangzi. Even I know it."

"Crane's gratitude?" Musashi tilted his head curiously.

"Are you really Japanese?"

Rod explained to her, “There’s a type of story called the Animal Gratitude Story.

Basically, it is a story about birds and animals that have been rescued by humans, and in order to repay their kindness, they bring corresponding happiness to humans. "

In Japan, the story of "The Crane's Gratitude" is particularly famous.

It serves its benefactor wholeheartedly, weaving cloth using feathers plucked from its own body. If anyone sees it working, it will immediately change back into the form of a crane and leave.

"By the way, animals that repay a favor often appear in the form of beautiful girls."

Rhodes said as he stroked the white crane.

"This child will grow up to be a lovely little girl one day and repay me for my kindness."

"That's absolutely impossible! People like you who help others with a utilitarian mindset will never have a good outcome!"

After Musashi said this, everyone laughed.

"What's wrong, Miss Hongye?"

The only person present who had a strange expression on her face was the ghost girl Hongye.

"Ah, nothing."

She shook her head.

Among the four of them, Rhodes, Xiangzi, Musashi, and Hongye, she was the only one who saw through Crane's true identity.

That is not an ordinary small animal, but the reincarnation of a crane.

She stared at the crane on her master's head with a fierce look. The latter was frightened by the look of the carnivore and immediately fled into the boy's arms and trembled.

"Hey! Hongye, you can't scare it like that!"

Rhodes scolded as he stroked the crane's feathers.

"…………yes."

The ghost girl Hongye lowered her head and returned to her dinner.

Tsk... you are really good at trying to please others. Are you a crane fairy or a fox spirit?

Although she is a little unhappy, she doesn't seem to have any intention of harming my Lord, so I'll just leave her alone for now...

Well, it's a bit annoying though.

At this time, the ghost girl Hongye was surprised to find that the crane in Rod's arms took the initiative to look at her.

"what……?"

The ghost girl Hongye put down her chopsticks with a tense face.

The reason was that the look Crane gave her was full of provocation.

That look seemed to be saying "You'll never be able to act like a spoiled child to your master like I do."

The ghost girl Hongye's mouth trembled and the chopsticks in her hand broke.

"What happened..."

Musashi carelessly opened the collar of his yukata, revealing a glimpse of spring, while looking around.

"Does anyone feel that the room has suddenly become hotter?"

Xiangzi wiped the sweat from her forehead and replied, "Yeah, the room was cool just now...how come it suddenly..."

Rhode realized the culprit for the room's warming, so he secretly kicked Hongye under the table to stop her from emitting heat from her body.

What a joke! If it was any later the house would have caught fire.

Since Rhodes became the master of the demon girl Momiji, this was the first time she showed her demonic nature at home like today.

When Rhodes observed Hongye, he found that she was staring at the crane in her arms.

Ah... Could it be that the ghost girl Hongye and this crane don't get along?

At this moment, the boy suddenly remembered what he learned in junior high school biology class: dinosaurs are the biological ancestors of birds.

The ghost girl Hongye is a dinosaur, which is essentially a bird like the crane, so it is normal for her to dislike cranes.

The so-called like repels like.

Oh my, you are so cute that you get jealous over a bird, Miss Hongye.

Let's treat her well tonight...

It is my job as the master to consume the excess energy of the demons, which is as vigorous as a volcano, in bed.

"By the way, Master. Since you are going to keep it, would you like to give this crane a name?"

"Yeah, it would be more convenient if we had a name."

Rhodes looked at the crane in his arms and found that it also responded to his sparkling gaze, which was full of expectation.

The young man, feeling a great sense of responsibility, thought hard for a long time, and then said, "Why not call her Miss Crane?"

"Hahahaha! What a lame name!"

Musashi burst into laughter, and Xiangzi beside him also showed a subtle expression.

Everyone unanimously decided that the task of naming should be left to the talented lady Ping An.

Murasaki Shikibu pinched her chin and thought for a while, then said, "The name of the crane? Or maybe use the one from The Song of the Pipa... It hurts!"

When the name was halfway through, Xiangzi's hand was pecked by a crane. It seemed that the bird in question was very satisfied with the name that Rhodes had just given.

So in the end we decided to call her Miss He.

……

……

……

The next day, the long-awaited preliminary rounds for the Genji Festival began.

Because this Genji Festival is a martial arts tournament open to invitations from all over Japan, there are a large number of applicants, so a preliminary selection must be conducted first.

Rhodes, Musashi and Kiyoko had agreed to go to the conference together a few days ago. They were accompanied today by the demon girl Momiji and Miss Crane, who had been inseparable from Rhodes recently.

"Wow! It's a crane! This is the first time I've seen one alive! Can I touch it and kiss it?"

As Qingzi spoke, she wiggled her ten fingers in an obscene manner and reached towards the boy's arms.

"No, Miss He seems to only be close to me..."

Before he could finish his words, Sei Shonagon was pecked on the head.

"Ahahaha, is it my illusion... I always feel that Crane-chin is not very friendly to me..."

"She is not very friendly to any woman who approaches the Master with ulterior motives."

Musashi muttered quietly, the evidence is myself.

After a brief introduction, the group walked to the bustling preliminary venue.

Although it was only the preliminary stage, the city was as lively as a festival, and everywhere was crowded with Kyoto citizens and samurai from all over the country.

They walked to the back of the long line of contestants and started lining up.

"So the Raiko Four Heavenly Kings don't need to participate in the preliminary selection. How cunning."

"That's natural, right? The Four Heavenly Kings are known as the strongest in peace... So, what is that in your hand, Light Qin?"

"Ah, this is a bento." said Rhodes.

This morning, Miss Xiangzi got up early and prepared a wife's bento for him, which was filled with the unspeakable taboo feelings of the big-breasted widow for the young man.

By the way, Musashi and Momiji also had some, but they ate them up in no time on the way here.

"Hey~ You actually made a lunch box for Guang Zhiqin. The family you are staying with now is really nice to you."

Kiyoko put her hands behind her head and asked casually, "Speaking of which, I mentioned before that the family you were staying with was named Fujiwara. What was their name…"

When Rhodes was hesitating whether to give Xiangzi's name, a huge figure appeared beside them.

The broad body, over two meters in height, was covered in fully armed Japanese armor, and underneath the exaggerated helmet was a red demon mask, making it impossible to identify his face and age.

Although his expression could not be seen due to the mask, the strong hostility emanating from this ghost warrior made passers-by around him retreat.

The ghost warrior shouted: "Haha! You actually found a woman to accompany you to the Genji Festival. Who do you think you are? If you like women so much, go home and suck your mother's milk, shorty!"

Um, are you talking to me?

Rhodes glanced at the ghost warrior next to him and found that he was indeed staring at him.
