In the world of Type-Moon, it all begins with becoming Morgan's husband!

You knew that Minamoto no Yorimitsu would find out about this sooner or later.

And that's exactly the result you wanted.

Moonlight streams into the room.

Ian was waiting for something in the room.

He had a premonition that Minamoto no Yorimitsu would definitely come looking for him tonight.

that's the truth.

The shoji door was pulled open and then quickly closed again.

Minamoto no Yorimitsu walked in carrying a knee-shaped pill.

Her expression was very serious, something she had never shown before.

but--

This serious expression lasted for less than a second before crumbling.

Minamoto no Yorimitsu put down the yakumaru that her father had given her, then pounced on Ian and pinned him to the tatami mat.

The martial artist, who was usually extremely gentle, seemed to have lost all his reason at this moment.

She kissed her husband's lips tightly, not giving him even the slightest opening.

Her tongue rolled back and forth in the Great Onmyoji's mouth, as if trying to devour all the air inside.

This was a suffocating kissing experience.

But Ian did not refuse.

Because he sensed that Minamoto no Yorimitsu was afraid.

for a long time.

The beautiful warrior finally stopped.

Her beautiful purple eyes were already filled with glistening tears.

She, who is usually incredibly strong and never admits defeat, looks like a wronged little child at this moment.

"lady."

Ian reached out and wiped away the tears from Minamoto no Yorimitsu's eyes.

"Why are you crying?"

"Because I am about to lose my husband."

Minamoto no Yorimitsu, riding on Ian's back, spoke with a sob in his voice:

"They all say you have another woman on the side."

"You drank from the same cup...you walked hand in hand in the street, and you even lived in the same house."

"My lord!" Minamoto no Yorimitsu cried out in anguish, "Why did you do this?"

Is it because I don't have time to spend with you?

"In that case—"

"Why don't you just say it?"

"I won't take this Mino governorship..."

Before Minamoto no Yorimitsu could finish speaking, Ian reached out and covered her mouth.

"Madam, you mustn't say such things."

"The revival of the Genji clan still requires your efforts, my lady."

Upon hearing this, Minamoto no Yorimitsu removed Ian's hand from his lips.

"But my husband—"

"You said you'd be there for me until then, didn't you?"

"But why have you betrayed me now?"

"lady."

Ian was not afraid of the questioning from Minamoto no Yorimitsu at all—because he did indeed have a plan.

He opened his mouth and said:

"Why would you rather believe a stranger than someone you've known for so many years?"

"..."

Upon hearing this, Minamoto no Yorimitsu seemed to realize something.

She frowned slightly and asked in a low voice:

"Husband, what do you mean by this?"

"Are you saying... that everything they said was false?"

"Do not."

Ian shook his head.

"It's not fake."

“I did do that kind of thing—Madam, please don’t get agitated.”

"..."

Minamoto no Yorimitsu nodded.

She truly didn't want to believe that the man in front of her would betray her.

Looking at the beautiful warrior who had temporarily calmed down, Ian continued:

"lady."

"You've been so busy lately, is it because of that 'Algae Girl'?"

“Yes.” Minamoto no Yorimitsu nodded.

"We've been searching for almost two months now... and there's not a single trace."

"Perhaps 'Zao-onna' is no longer in Heian-kyo."

“No.” Ian shook his head.

"Madam, she is in Heian-kyo."

Just as Minamoto no Yorimitsu was about to press Ian for an explanation, he suddenly realized something.

"Husband, you wouldn't..."

"Yes, ma'am."

Ian grasped Minamoto no Yorimitsu's hand.

“I have found traces of the ‘Algae Woman’.”

"The actions you heard about from others were also things I did to keep her calm."

"Madam, her true form is a fox demon."

"Please report this matter to the Retired Emperor in the name of the Genji clan."

"…husband."

Looking at the great Onmyoji beneath him, Minamoto no Yorimitsu's sorrow finally faded somewhat.

"Were you doing these things before?"

Why didn't you tell me sooner?

"because--"

Ian looked at Minamoto no Yorimitsu on his body with a meaningful look in his eyes.

"Madam has already taken on too much."

"I don't think it's necessary to cause your wife unnecessary trouble before things are settled."

[Minamoto no Yorimitsu did not doubt your words.]

Or perhaps this is the explanation she wanted to hear.

"Very good……"

Minamoto no Yorimitsu lay down on top of Ian.

"My husband didn't betray me. I thought I'd need to use the knee pill tonight."

"Use knee pills?"

Ian glanced at the famous sword that Minamoto no Yorimitsu had placed aside.

"Madam, do you intend to kill me?"

"Do not."

Minamoto no Yorimitsu slightly raised his head and shook it at Ian.

"I can't bring myself to lay a hand on my husband."

"so--"

“If my husband really falls in love with someone else, I will choose to commit suicide in front of him.”

"In this way... no matter which woman my husband is with in the future, he will never forget me."

"..."

Ian stroked Minamoto no Yorimitsu's beautiful long purple hair.

"Madam, please don't worry."

"You will absolutely not die in front of me."

"I know."
