but--

As his married wife, Minamoto Yorimitsu felt that the husband in front of her was thinking of something.

Without hesitation, she took out Genji's token and tied it around the Great Onmyoji's waist.

"I understand."

"Husband, do what you think is right."

"I'll handle the situation here."

Nothing needs to be said.

The Genji couple looked at each other and completely believed each other.

[You temporarily left the court meeting hall. 】

[This should not be allowed. 】

[But Fujiwara Tokuko doesn't seem to have time to care about you - she looks really anxious. 】

【You are walking in the silent Palace of Peace. 】

[You start to think about all this. 】

Ian always felt that this series of things was a bit inconsistent.

It is certainly true that Fujiwara Tokuko wanted to participate in government affairs.

but--

It is not a good way for Onmyoji to set up formations in the Peace Palace to connect with the outside world.

After all, this is extremely risky behavior.

As the number one onmyoji in Kyoto, I might be aware of all this at any time.

Naturally, the great Onmyoji who was hiding behind Fujiwara Tokuko would not be unaware of this.

So--

This shows that he is disgusted and can still let things continue in an orderly manner after being discovered.

Should this be said to be confidence?

Or should I say conceited?

In addition, there is another point that Ian cares about very much.

Why does Fujiwara Tokuko wear a veil to cover her face?

Among this...is there any secret that cannot be known to others?

[You are thinking about these questions. 】

[The tracking of Shuten-douji and Ibaraki-douji continues. 】

Ghosts and humans are different.

As a creature that relies on "thoughts" to survive, ghosts can easily hide their aura.

This is also the reason why the profession of Onmyoji was born - the people need people who can uncover hidden ghosts.

As ghosts with extraordinary abilities, Shuten-douji and Ibaraki-douji naturally know how to hide their auras.

So even if they follow the unknown Great Onmyoji at such a close distance, the two ghosts will not be discovered.

"What a stupid Onmyoji."

Shuten Doji looked at the figure of the Onmyoji in front of him and couldn't help but comment like this.

"If we were uncle, he would have discovered us by now."

"Ah."

Ibaraki Doji nodded.

"If it was Abe-sama, he should have discovered us."

"Eh?"

Shutendouji turned back to look at his friend.

"Abe-sama?"

"Ibaraki, when did you use this title?"

"Well... that's what I just thought of." Ibaraki Doji answered very seriously, "Because I thought it was a suitable name for him, so I called him that."

"Shutun, shouldn't I use this title?"

"you……"

Seeing Ibaraki-dōji's sincere and undisguised eyes, Shuten-dōji's face turned red.

"up to you."

"You are free to call me uncle however you want!"

"We don't care!"

"Yeah." Ibaraki Doji nodded, "That's good."

"..."

"..."

Shuten Doji turned his face away.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore! Let's quickly follow the Onmyoji in front!"

"it is good."

It's a coincidence.

Although Shuten-douji and Ibaraki-douji followed slowly, they were always able to keep close to the great onmyoji in front.

The two little ghosts passed through most of the Peace Palace.

"Where is he going?"

Seeing this seemingly endless movement, Shuten Doji couldn't help but murmur in his heart.

She began to wonder if there was something wrong with her judgment.

Is it difficult-

Does this Onmyoji really know nothing?

Shuten Doji was a little puzzled.

But at this moment, something unexpected happened.

I saw Ibaraki Doji say at this moment:

"Shutun, he's gone."

"Eh?!"

Shuten Doji came back from his thoughts and found that the Onmyoji the two ghosts had been following had indeed disappeared before his eyes.

"Where...has he gone?"

It was obvious that he could keep up no matter what.

Why did he turn a corner and disappear?

Shuten Doji sensed that something was not right.

She restrained her previous cheerfulness and said to Ibaraki Doji next to her:

"Ibaraki, be careful."

"We feel like something is wrong."

"..."

Although Ibaraki Doji did not respond directly.

But the clenched fist showed that she had listened to Shuten Douji's words.

"Then what should we do now?" Ibaraki Doji asked.

"..."

The Ghost King of Dajiangshan returned to his super serious appearance during battle.

She looked around cautiously, paying attention to anything that might cause an accident.

"Ibaraki, let's look around here first."

"Maybe you'll find something."

[Shuten-douji and Ibaraki-douji began their investigation. 】

[At the same time, your thinking has also achieved a staged result. 】

face.

Thinking about Fujiwara Tokuko's veil, this word came to Ian's mind.

Of course, wearing a veil cannot be for beauty, let alone to create some sense of mystery.

The only function it can provide is to hide Fujiwara Tokuko's face.

but--

Why cover it up?

It must be impossible to make it public.

So--

Why can't it be made public?

Fujiwara Tokuko is a respectable person, right?

Why do you even have to cover your face?

Ian thought hard about this question, and the pitiful little information he got from Fujiwara Tokuko kept floating in his mind.

"Concubine."

This is the same self-proclaimed name as Tamamo Mae, and it is also one of the few pieces of information that Ian has remembered in his mind.

and many more.

Ian suddenly found that he had fallen into a misunderstanding.

It's like Tamamo Mae, who calls herself "concubine", is actually not a evil monster at all.

The relationship between Fujiwara Tokuko and the hidden great Onmyoji may not be as it appears.

If you think about it this way——

It was not Fujiwara Tokuko who invited this onmyoji.

Instead, this onmyoji approached Tokuko Fujiwara.

No.

It's not just that.

Since he was able to hide in the Peace Palace and even set up a Yin-Yang magic circle, it might not just be as simple as "finding him".

The more likely outcome is——

"Decide".

Because she can "decide" who is the new Fujiwara Tokuko anytime and anywhere, she cannot be allowed to show her true face to avoid suspicion.

If you continue to think along this line of thought——

There is a reason to explain "Fujiwara Tokuko"'s current anxiety.

She is going to be "replaced".

To put it in a better way, it is death.
