Ibaraki Doji looked at Tamamo Mae.

"Can I ask you a question?"

"..."

Looking at Ibaraki Doji, who was much smaller than him, Tamamo Mae did not look down upon him.

She nodded very seriously:

"Excuse me, if I know, I will definitely answer clearly."

"That--"

Ibaraki Doji glanced at Tamamo Mae and then at Ian.

"What is your relationship with this Onmyoji?"

"Eh? This..."

[Tamazo Mae didn’t know how to answer this question. 】

[After all, she never dared to ask such a thing from beginning to end. 】

[She looks at you. 】

[You realize that she both wants to know the answer to this question and is afraid of knowing the answer to it. 】

[But what she doesn’t know is that you already have a very clear identity for her in your heart. 】

Ian patted Tamamo Mae's shoulder and said softly:

"I'll answer it."

The Great Onmyoji looked at the confused Ibaraki Doji under Tamamo Mae's gaze.

"Ibaraki."

"If I have to describe the relationship between Xiaoyu and I -"

"That's probably 'the person you want to marry but can't marry'."

"..."

All the eyes of everyone present fell on Ian, but their thoughts were different.

Tamamo-mae was a surprise.

She originally expected Ian's answer to be more sympathetic.

But now it seems...

It doesn't seem entirely pity.

I had more or less given him some ideas, right?

Shuten Doji was surprised.

Although before leaving, she had somewhat understood that the Great Onmyoji would not be as overly hostile to ghosts as before.

but--

Does he actually have the idea of ​​accepting a monster as his wife now?

Then do you also...

Ibaraki Doji's face was expressionless.

But she glanced at Shuten Doji and then at the Great Onmyoji, and suddenly understood something.

"Then Onmyoji, can I understand this relationship as lovers?"

"lover?"

Ian glanced at Tamamo Mae and found that the other person's eyes were full of expectation, so he smiled and replied:

"Well, you can put it that way."

The Great Onmyoji just finished speaking.

Ibaraki Doji bowed before him with a plop.

"Then please."

"Please take my good friend Shutun as your lover!"

"She talks about you every day and every night. I really can't stand it anymore!"

"Eh?!"

Shuten Doji's cheeks turned red in an instant.

"Ibaraki! What are you talking about!"

"We never did that, it's just..."

The more Shuten Doji talked, the less confident she became - after all, she had indeed been thinking about the great Onmyoji in the past season.

Otherwise, I wouldn’t have returned to Kyoto as soon as spring began.

But the next moment, she heard an unexpected answer.

"Okay." Ian smiled slightly.

"It's not impossible if Shuten is willing."

"Eh?!"

Shuten Doji was stunned for a moment, then blushed and shouted.

"Who will be uncle's lover?"

"Uncle, why did you have such a relationship with a fox demon?"

"Shutun, this is what happened."

[You told Shuten Douji about a series of things that happened recently. 】

[She looked surprised, but then thought of something. 】

"Uncle, you mean that there is a mirror in the Peace Palace that must be taken away, right?"

"Yeah." Ian nodded.

"That's it."

"That--"

Shuten Doji hesitated for a moment and continued.

"Do you want us to take it out for you?"

150. Shuten Doji’s new goal on the road to secret love ([-] words chapter)

"Shutun..."

Ian's eyes fell on the female imp in front of him.

Although he looked like a child, he knew that the other party was definitely not kidding him.

She is serious.

"Shutun, are you sure you can do it?" Ian asked again.

"Uncle, what's that look in your eyes?"

Shutendouji put his hands on his back and looked very unhappy.

"After all, we are also the ghost kings of the country. We are just going to get a mirror. What can be the problem?"

"Yes." Ibaraki Doji nodded following these words.

"When we were in Dajiangshan, we would often ask for a few bottles of wine from passing merchants."

"I won't tell them though."

"Ibaraki! If you don't speak, no one will think you are mute!"

Shuten Doji was very anxious.

She was very concerned about how she looked in front of Ian.

but--

She soon discovered that the Great Onmyoji didn't care too much about this kind of thing.

I saw him say:

"Shutun, I'll leave it to you."

"Eh?"

Shutendouji originally thought that the other party would ask more questions, but he didn't expect that he agreed so quickly.

"We know."

"but--"

"Uncle, you have to at least tell us why you have to get that mirror, right?"

When Shuten Doji said this, Tamamo Mae also realized the exact same problem.

"really."

"Although I have reached a contract with Mr. Abe, I still don't know why Mr. Abe wants to use that mirror."

Ibaraki Doji said nothing.

But judging from the expression she looked at Ian, she was also very curious about this question.

"..."

Ian's eyes swept across the women in front of him.

After hesitating for a moment, he said:

"Everyone, the reason why I need that mirror is because..."

[You begin to tell about what you saw and heard on Ghost Island. 】

[That was a strange meeting with Chou Yuqian under the influence of mysterious power. 】

[You learned the truth about Minamoto no Yorimitsu a long time ago. 】

[She was a "sacrifice" sacrificed by Genmanzhong to the King of the Ox Head for the development of the Genji, with the assistance of another Onmyoji with the same surname as "Abe". 】

[Her existence is the foundation for Genji’s continuous development and growth. 】

[But it’s not without cost. 】

[If Minamoto Yorimitsu keeps using this power, she will become Ugozen at some point in the future. 】

[You have to prevent this from happening. 】

[For this reason, you need the mirror in front of Tamamo to "contact" Kaminari Mitsuru again to find a solution. 】

【This is your true purpose. 】

"..."

Shuten Doji curled his lips.

"Did uncle ever encounter something like this on Ghost Island?"

"Yeah." Ian nodded.

"That's why I rushed to take you away at that time - after all, the entire island is actually part of Chou Gozen."

"But will that Ugly Gozen lie to us?" Shuten Doji was a little doubtful, "After all, if it were that cow... I mean, if Minamoto no Yorimitsu really didn't continue to use that power, she wouldn't exist, right? "
