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

In a sense—

It's more like using tea leaves to preserve Tamamo-no-Mae's precious treasure.

Ian took out a white porcelain teacup that had been prepared beforehand and gently stroked Tamamo-no-Mae's lower abdomen with his fingers.

The fox demon's body reacted quickly.

As the ropes touching his hands and feet trembled, the brewed tea was slowly poured into the teacup.

That was a delicacy that had been brewing overnight in the fox demon's treasure.

Ian reached out and took the towel that Tamamo-no-Mae was biting.

"Xiaoyu, have a taste."

Although the fox demon was blindfolded and couldn't see anything, she still nodded.

The great Onmyoji placed the teacup against her lips.

Gulu gulu——

Tamamo-no-Mae's throat twitched slightly.

"Mr. Abe...this tea is really good."

"Ah."

Ian removed the blindfold from Tamamo-no-Mae's eyes.

Under her gaze, he turned the glass to the side she had just drunk from.

Gurgling.

The great Onmyoji took a sip of tea.

"Xiaoyu."

"I really like your taste."

Upon hearing this, Tamamo-no-Mae blushed.

She responded shyly:

"In that case, please enjoy the tea I have prepared, Mr. Abe."

[The "Fox Spirit Teapot" talent has been upgraded to "Fox Spirit Teapot+": You received the blessing of "demon" from Tamamo-no-Mae.]

You decide to savor this flavor a little longer.

The rope has been untied.

Having regained her freedom, Tamamo-no-Mae looked shyly at Ian, who was lying on top of her and enjoying tea, and drew a heart shape on the tatami mat next to her with her finger.

She is not stupid.

Although the other party kept saying that he wanted her to be his tea set, it was actually just a different way of allowing her to have contact with him.

This has clearly crossed his bottom line.

Tamamo-no-Mae understood this.

but--

It's rare for him to be able to enjoy it so legitimately.

The fox demon found herself unable to refuse.

after all……

Now like this.

It looks like a wife satisfying her husband's quirks.

“Xiaoyu.” Ian’s voice rang out.

"Would you be unhappy if you were treated like this?"

"..."

Tamamo-no-Mae shook her head.

"Nothing."

"I brewed a pot of hot tea and then waited for Mr. Abe to arrive."

“Every day spent like this is already a series of miracles.”

"I already feel happy enough."

"Xiaoyu..."

Ian looked at Tamamo-no-Mae, who was speaking such sensible words, and felt a pang of guilt.

"If I hadn't been the one to save you, you'd probably be better off, right?"

"But besides Mr. Abe, who else would be willing to lend me a helping hand?"

Tamamo-no-Mae gave a self-deprecating laugh.

"Without Mr. Abe, I would probably have been killed long ago as a monster who is harming the government, wouldn't I?"

You were unaware of Shuten-dōji's existence.

You probably never imagined she witnessed the entire tea-tasting process.

"This……"

Shuten-dōji frowned slightly.

At first, she thought it was a monster that the great Onmyoji had subdued and trained in this room.

But now it seems.

Things don't seem to be like that at all.

The fox spirit didn't dislike him at all; in fact, she was very grateful that he came to taste the tea there.

and--

He actually called her "Xiaoyu"!

This name is so intimate!

I've been by his side for so long, but I've never been called "little wine" by him!

Shuten-dōji became more and more excited as he thought about it, and in the end, he accidentally fell directly into the room from the window on a high floor.

She landed on the tatami with a dull thud.

Such a loud noise naturally drew Ian and Tamamo-no-Mae's attention in that direction.

Tamamo-no-Mae was puzzled.

Ian recognized Shuten-dōji at a glance.

"Shuten-dōji?!"

"You're back?"

"What kind of tone is that?!" Shuten-dōji scrambled to his feet. "You really don't want to see us?"

"Or--"

Shuten-dōji glanced at Tamamo-no-Mae, who was completely exposed beside the Great Onmyoji.

"Did we disturb your intimate moment with this fox demon?"

Upon hearing this, Tamamo-no-Mae suddenly felt embarrassed.

She didn't mind Ian looking at her body.

But if he loses face, that won't do.

"I'm sorry, I'll get dressed right away."

[Tamamo-no-Mae has changed her clothes.]

Shuten-dōji then brought Ibaraki-dōji in as well.

All of this was done in the quietest possible way.

Ultimately, in a sense, none of the people in the room could face Minamoto no Yorimitsu alone.

"These two are..."

Tamamo-no-Mae looked at Shuten-dōji and Ibaraki-dōji in front of her.

She could tell that the other person was not human, but she didn't know them either.

Upon hearing Tamamo-no-Mae inquire about his identity, Shuten-dōji patted his incredibly flat chest and proudly declared:

"I am the Demon King of Mount Ooe!"

"How about that? Scared you, huh?!"

"..."

Tamamo-no-Mae gave an awkward but polite smile.

"It does sound really impressive."

"but--"

"I've never heard of this name before..."

"Right! We knew it would happen as soon as we mentioned... eh?"

Shuten-dōji's eyes turned into beady eyes.

"You don't know Mount Ooe?"

This is not something difficult to understand.

During the time when Shuten-dōji was active, Tamamo-no-Mae had not yet been born.

By the time Tamamo-no-Mae appeared in Kyoto, Shuten-dōji had already been beheaded by Minamoto no Yorimitsu.
