How did I, an Onmyoji, become the Lord of Yokai?

I promised to show Reiko and Yoko around Heian-kyo.

As Shimizu Asahi had predicted, the two sisters, who had spent two hundred years in the underworld, had never seen such a prosperous city. The magnificent scenes they witnessed along the way almost made their eyes overflow with astonishment.

"So, isn't Heian-kyo more prosperous two hundred years later than it was before?"

With a slight smile, the young man asked softly.

"Hmm, it's much more prosperous than the previous Mountain City Kingdom... I never imagined that the human world would become so prosperous two hundred years later."

"I'm getting more and more excited to see what Suzuka Mountain looks like now."

Although the Mountain City Kingdom was prosperous in the past, it was definitely not as prosperous as this.

Seven- or eight-story pavilions and towers, bustling streets teeming with people, and all sorts of unique goods—the changes here are truly enormous.

"Only now do I truly feel like two hundred years have passed."

"This country now... is it called Heian-kyo? It's such an unfamiliar name."

The leaves couldn't help but whisper softly.

"You'll get used to it."

After showing the Tamura sisters around Heian-kyo, Reiko suddenly suggested that she go and visit the Onmyōryō (Bureau of Yin and Yang).

They were still very curious about the place that had produced Qingshui Chaoyang.

They were also curious about the teacher, Qing Shui Chao Yang.

It would be best to express your gratitude in person.

Unfortunately, Kamo no Tadayuki was not at the Yin-Yang Bureau today. He had handed things over to his son, Kamo no Yasunori, and then disappeared.

Although somewhat surprised that their teacher wasn't in the Onmyōryō, Shimizu Asahi didn't pay too much attention and didn't disturb them further. After bidding farewell to Kamo Yasunori, the group left the Onmyōryō.

And since they were already here, Shimizu Asahi suggested that they go see Kidomaru.

"Kidomaru? That's Asahi's good friend? Is he around here too?"

"Yes, not only him, but also Lord Enmusubi."

"Lord Fate God?"

"It's the deity who helped us tie the red string."

Seeing the confusion in Reiko's eyes, Shimizu Asahi smiled and explained.

When he said that, Reiko remembered it too.

Didn't I tie the knot with Shimizu Asahi at the Enmusubi Shrine?

I never expected that the deity would be here too.

Reiko became interested and nodded, indicating that she wanted to go.

Additionally, if possible, you can also ask Ye Zi for a red string.

These sisters had relied on each other for a hundred years, sharing the same father, the same clan, and the same husband. What she had, she should have too. (Chapter 518, Chapter 515: The Master really doesn't understand love.)

Following Shimizu Asahi into Kidomaru's house, Reiko and Yoko met the carefree God of Marriage, who was pleasantly surprised and welcomed their arrival.

Of course, there was more surprise than anything else.

She was one of the people who knew that Shimizu Asahi was going to the Sea of ​​Immortality, so it was perfectly normal that she couldn't see Reiko for a while. But she didn't expect that Shimizu Asahi would bring Reiko back after only meeting the mysterious fortune teller once.

Could it be that the fortune teller was actually Reiko?

The idea of ​​the God of Fate was so funny that Shimizu Asahi laughed twice before telling her what was going on.

"I never expected you to have gone to the underworld. No wonder my red thread couldn't find you."

The matchmaker was astonished when she learned the whole story, but then she felt a deep joy and offered heartfelt blessings, even asking when they would hold their wedding again.

Well, they won't be able to do that so quickly, since they still need to go to Suzuka Mountain.

After that, Reiko asked Yoko for a red string, and this time the matchmaker didn't say as much as she had when she helped Ibuki and the others tie their marriages. She easily tied the red string between the two of them.

After dealing with the matter with Enmusubi, Shimizu Asahi had a good chat with Kidomaru for a while.

After more than half a month of rest, Kidomaru's injuries have fully recovered, and he no longer needs anyone to take care of him.

However, perhaps due to the suppression of the Asura Demon King's red rope, Kidomaru's control over his Asura Demon bloodline is getting stronger and stronger, and he can now even try to actively activate the power of his bloodline.

His strength has increased again.

"It's certainly something to be happy about that you've become stronger, but lately I haven't heard you mention asking Lady Enmusubi to leave this place."

The boy glanced furtively at the spirit of the predestined union who was chatting with her older sister, Ibuki, and a teasing smile appeared on his face.

"It seems you've gotten used to life with Lord Yuuki."

Half a month ago, Kidomaru was seriously injured, and Enmusubi took the initiative to come here to take care of him. Although Enmusubi did not have divine power, it would be unreasonable for a god who had been wandering alone for so long not to have some means of taking care of people. Therefore, he was taken care of very well, without any shortcomings. However, even so, he was still not used to Enmusubi and often subtly suggested that she go back.

During the few times Shimizu Asahi visited him, he kept asking how to get the spirit of the predestined union to leave, but Shimizu Asahi, who had other ideas in mind, could not possibly agree, so he kept saying that he was powerless to do so.

If you want Lord Enmusubi to leave, you'll have to work hard yourself.

After trying for a while and finding it useless, Kidomaru stopped mentioning it.

Moreover, judging from the current situation, he should have gotten used to spending time with Enmusubi.

Kidomaru has made another friend, that's great.

"I never said I was used to it, it's just that I can't get rid of it, so I can only accept it."

The red-haired boy smiled and shook his head, indicating that it wasn't that he was used to it, but rather that he had no choice but to accept it.

Well, although that wasn't the case with the expression on his face.

"In some ways, you and I are quite similar."

Shimizu Asahi gave him a deep look, but still didn't reveal the truth.

Seeing through things but not saying it is one of the ways to conduct oneself in society.

"Alright, it's getting late, we should head back."

Let's stop here for today.

Patting his friend on the shoulder, Shimizu Asahi smiled and got up to leave. Kidomaru waved goodbye, and only looked away after their figures disappeared from sight.

After leaving Kidomaru's house, Ibuki and the others discussed Kidomaru and Enmusubi. Enmusubi's move into Kidomaru's house was somewhat unexpected. It was truly unbelievable that a child who inherited the bloodline of the Demon King of Shura would be so easy to talk to.

Regarding this outcome, they seem to lean more towards another kind of feeling than friendship or affection.

The God of Fate has helped countless people find their perfect marriage; now, it's time for him to find his own.

"I think your speculations are baseless. Putting aside whether Kidomaru has those kinds of thoughts, just take Lady Enmusubi as an example. She is not the kind of person who would have such thoughts."

Shimizu Asahi rolled her eyes slightly and said this with absolute certainty.

Neither Kidomaru nor Enmusubi saw any emotions related to love.

It cannot be said that the God of Fate helps people to form a marriage, but that they must have someone they like, just as the God of Love may also dislike people developing feelings for each other.

Therefore, their speculations are completely unfounded.

However, his words provoked a collective "condemnation" from the girls.

"Hehehe... Master, sometimes you can't just look with your eyes, because your eyes can deceive you."

"It's not that our eyes can lie; it's more accurate to say that only outsiders can see things more clearly. Sometimes, only those who are right next to us can see things more clearly."

"Although I don't understand these kinds of things like feelings, my intuition tells me that there should be such a possibility between them."

“My sister’s intuition is right, and I also think it’s possible.”

The girls took turns talking, leaving Shimizu Asahi speechless.

Huh? You all noticed? I'm the only one who didn't?

The boy, feeling a little resentful, couldn't help but look at his sister and Qingnufang.

"Sister, Qingnufang, did you also figure it out?"

"...There is a possibility of that."

"I'm having a hard time making a decision, since I'm too familiar with the Goddess of Fate, and sometimes I can't understand her."

Aono and Shimizu Mio spoke one after the other. In fact, Shimizu Mio also felt that there was a possibility, but because they were too familiar with each other, she knew that Aono had almost no feelings for her in this regard, so she couldn't make a decision.

But all the girls present gave an affirmative answer, saying that losing one of her wouldn't make a difference.

"This... Kidomaru and Lady Enmusubi... can they really get together? If they really can, I'm not saying I'm against it... in fact, I should be very happy."

Neither Shimizu Asahi nor Kamo Tadashi ever imagined that Kidomaru could fall in love with someone. After all, he was surrounded by only men, and the women who approached him were like decaying flowers, ugly and unbearable. Therefore, the bloodline of the Shura Oni King family might very well end with him.

But if Kidomaru really had the chance to fall in love with someone, Shimizu Asahi would definitely be happy for him.

But... why do I always have this feeling that something that belongs to me has been taken away?
