The world in the moon begins with becoming Morgan’s husband!

Shuten Doji looked at the magnificent mansion in front of him and couldn't believe what he was hearing.

"Ah."

Ian nodded to dismiss Shuten Doji's concerns.

"You guys go in and take a look first."

"……All right."

As soon as he entered the mansion, Shuten Doji smelled the faint aroma of wine.

The little female ghost's little nose moved, and then she began to search around the mansion.

Soon, she discovered the wine piled in a room somewhere.

That's an astonishing amount. Even Shuten Doji, the ghost king of Dajiangshan, has never seen so much wine!

"That's a lot of wine!" she exclaimed.

Almost at the same time, Ibaraki Doji’s shout came from the other side.

“So many sweets!”

"..."

"..."

The two imps left the room at the same time and looked at the Great Onmyoji.

Ian smiled slightly:

"how?"

"Don't like it?"

"I remember Shuton, you love drinking, and Ibaraki is particularly fond of eating sweet things."

"That's what it says."

Shuten Doji looked very suspicious.

"But why does uncle prepare these things for us and Ibaraki for no reason?"

"It feels... so strange."

[Shuten Doji finally realized the problem. 】

[But you are not surprised. 】

[Because it will happen sooner or later. 】

[You told the truth to the two little ghosts who like you. 】

[This is what you prepared for them in advance. 】

[Money, wine, sweets. 】

[This way, even if you are no longer here, they can still live a good life for a long time. 】

[This is the only thing you can do for them, and it is also something you must do. 】

"no!"

Shuten Doji shouted anxiously.

"Uncle, are you crazy?!"

"Why should you trade your life for cows..."

Halfway through his words, Shuten Doji froze.

Because she suddenly understood everything.

Why?

Just because he loves her...

Such a simple truth can be seen at a glance.

Of course Ian knew what Shuten Doji was thinking at the moment.

But he had no reason to comfort her, so he could only silently touch his half-dead head.

At this time, Ibaraki Doji said:

"Lord Abe, is there really no other way?"

"For example—"

Ibaraki Doji pointed at himself.

"Let me die in place of Abe-sama."

"..."

Ian looked at Ibaraki Doji with a serious face - he knew she was not joking.

The Great Onmyoji bent down and reached out to pinch Ibaraki Doji's soft cheeks.

"Sorry, Ibaraki."

"I know you do have this determination, but... you really can't do this."

"Yeah...I know."

"Well, it's good to know."

"Hey!" Shuten Doji became anxious, "Ibaraki, how can you be so calm!"

"Uncle is going to die!"

"I know."

Ibaraki Doji took the Great Onmyoji's hand.

"But Shuten."

"I think since Abe-sama has made up his mind... the best thing we can do is support him."

"Although I am reluctant to part with Mr. Abe's big stick."

"but--"

"I also don't want to see Abe-sama unable to protect what he cherishes."

"That's a cruel thing."

"..."

Shuten Doji didn't know this.

She just doesn't want to accept that the person she likes has to die for another person.

"Hate!"

Shuten Doji shouted.

"We don't want to support it!"

After saying these words, the female imp turned around and ran out of the mansion purchased by the Great Onmyoji.

"Drunk!"

Just when Ibaraki Doji wanted to chase him out, he was stopped by Ian on the side.

"Ibaraki, let me go."

"You should familiarize yourself with the environment here."

"..."

Ibaraki Doji looked at the great Onmyoji next to him and nodded.

"I see."

[You left this mansion. 】

[You start looking for Shuten Douji. 】

[Your goal is very clear. 】

[You arrive at the liquor store. 】

[You found Shuten Douji. 】

"Shutun, I found you."

Ian looked at the Shuten boy hiding in the alley wiping his tears and said softly.

"You run so fast."

"Eh?"

Shuten Doji looked at the great Onmyoji who appeared in front of him in surprise.

"Uncle, how did you find us so quickly?!"

"Because you like it here so much."

Ian glanced at the liquor store next to him.

"You may not realize it...every time you come out, you will turn this way intentionally or unintentionally."

The Great Onmyoji is not talking nonsense.

Shuten Doji likes wine so much that sometimes even she herself doesn't understand how scary it is.

"..."

Upon hearing this, Shuten Doji stood up and immediately ran away.

But this time, Ian grabbed her hand.

"You can't run away if you drink too much."

"We always have to deal with this."

"..."

Shuten Doji turned around.

She looked at this man who was much taller than her, and her little body began to twitch up and down.

"Ahhhhhhhhhh!"

The little female ghost started to cry, and the whole ghost looked very embarrassed.

"But we don't want to!"

"Watching my uncle die would be more uncomfortable than not being able to drink!"

"..."

Ian bent down and held Shuten Doji in his arms.

He gently stroked her back and said softly in her ear:

"I know."

"It's something that's hard for you to accept."

"But--"

"Shutun, if it were you."

"When Ibaraki is in danger and you have a chance to save her, what will you do?"

"Uh, uh... of course we will save Ibaraki!"

Shuten Doji cried so hard that his voice became trembling.

"But ugh...this situation is different!"

"Do not."

Ian wiped away the tears from Shuten Dozi's eyes and kissed her on the forehead again.
