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

This is the first guest they have ever had in Danbo Village. If they don't treat them well, it won't just be a matter of losing face for them.

"Oh, by the way, are you going back today, Ibuki?" But at that moment, Shimizu Asahi suddenly looked at Ibuki-dōji.

"If we don't go back, we'll have to squeeze in."

The young student's words made the village chief involuntarily look at the petite ghost king.

"Hey, who is this?"

The unfamiliar figure made the old man look puzzled.

"Her name is Ibuki, and she's also a demon from Mount Ooe." Shimizu Asahi briefly introduced the girl, then asked, "Village Chief, haven't you seen her before?"

"This... I have indeed never seen it before." The village chief stroked his white beard, looking puzzled.

As the village chief of Tanba Village, he remembered all the monsters of Mount Ooe, even the demon kings of Mount Ooe...

Well?

Wait, the Ghost King!?

As if he had thought of something, the village chief's eyes widened involuntarily.

There was one, among all the monsters on Mount Ooe, that he didn't recognize...

Demon King, Ibuki-dōji!

According to the previous village chief, who was also his father, the Ghost King had not been here for over a hundred years. He originally thought that he would never see him in his lifetime, but unexpectedly... the Ghost King actually came!

The old man was overjoyed and prepared to respectfully address him as Lord Ibuki, but at that moment, Lord Ibuki quietly gave him a look.

The village chief, who had lived for decades, paused for a moment, then quickly understood the meaning behind that look.

'Do not reveal my identity as a concubine.'

Although he didn't understand why Lord Ibuki did this, since it was Lord Ibuki's order, he naturally had to do his best to fulfill it!

So the village chief composed himself and pretended not to know anything, saying, "It's not surprising. There are thousands upon thousands of monsters in Mount Ooe. I'm just an ordinary person, so it's only natural that I can't remember them all."

"However, this is the first time I've ever seen a yokai with the same name as Lord Ibuki."

“If the child doesn’t go back, he’ll have no choice but to live with you.”

"The room isn't big, but it can still sleep three people."

Hearing the village chief's words, Ibuki's cute face showed a hint of surprise.

She only asked the village chief not to reveal her identity, but unexpectedly, the village chief not only did not reveal her identity, but also smoothed over his emotions and even gave her a helping hand.

This village chief is pretty good... Chapter 69: Strength Doesn't Mean You Can Do Whatever You Want

In a room with three beds, Qingnufang sat by the window, facing a peaceful and serene mountain range.

Normally, she would be completely absorbed in the tranquility of the mountains.

But now, she has more important things to do....

She needs to find a way to get Shimizu Asahi away from that monster!

Three hours ago, when the village chief said that there was room for three people, everyone's eyes turned to her.

She understood that they were asking for her opinion.

Honestly, she wanted to refuse.

Because this might be the only chance to tell Shimizu Asahi Ibuki-dōji the true purpose and take him away.

However... she couldn't refuse.

That monster is staring at her; if she dares to shake her head, she will surely die!

Not only would she die, but Shimizu Asahi would also likely die. So... she had no choice but to bite the bullet and agree.

With all three of them 'agreeing', the matter was settled.

After dinner, the village chief led them here. However, he did not linger. After saying, "If you need anything, just call me anytime," he turned and left, leaving the space to the three of them.

The village chief must know Ibuki-doji's identity; he's now completely cooperating with her.

Damn it, things are getting more and more complicated....

"Speaking of which, it's time to change the medication."

Just as Qingnvfang was fretting over what to do, the young student who was chatting with Ibuki-dōji suddenly looked at her.

The girl was taken aback by the sudden words, and then belatedly said, "Indeed... I had forgotten."

In the battle with the shopkeeper, both Shimizu Asahi and Aonobo suffered severe injuries. Although Shimizu Asahi has recovered to a considerable extent during these few days of rest, Aonobo is still not well due to the counterattack of the foxfire.

Every night, Qingshui Chaoyang would help her change her dressings.

Although I was shy at first, I stopped caring after doing it so many times.

Just like now, Shimizu Asahi can calmly tell her to change her dressing, and she can calmly say that she understands.

After responding, the girl reached for the herbs and medicine bowl, but suddenly, as if she had thought of something, she paused for a moment, and then a hint of excitement appeared in her eyes.

Yes, you need to change your dressing yourself.

Changing the dressing requires removing one's upper garment, which means exposing one's body in front of Ibuki-dōji... Although they are both female demons, Shimizu Asahi understands that her ethical views are similar to those of humans. As long as she says that she is not used to being seen by others, she can get Ibuki-dōji to leave the room.

This way, she would have the opportunity to tell Shimizu Asahi the truth!

I never expected that changing the dressing would play such a big role at this time... It seems that getting injured has its benefits.

After chuckling to herself, the blue-haired girl looked up at the petite demon king, trying to use this as an excuse to get Ibuki-dōji to leave the room.

However, just before she could speak, Ibuki-doji spoke.

She tilted her head slightly, asking with some confusion, "Change the dressing?"

"Hmm, the demonic energy of the foxfire has clung to her body, and it will take some time to remove it..." Shimizu Asahi explained simply while washing his hands.

"So that's how it is... It must have been a tough journey."

"This is nothing serious. Compared to this, I think..." Qing Nufang replied calmly, and then prepared to let her leave the room.

However, before she could finish speaking, Ibuki-dōji interrupted her.

"Since that's the case, then let me help... Although I'm just an ordinary great demon, I can still remove the foxfire demon power."

She looked at the girl with a smile, her jewel-like eyes gleaming with unfathomable light.

'This monster... do you guess what I'm going to say?!'

Her pale yellow pupils shrank to pinpoints, and the blue-haired girl subconsciously felt a sense of astonishment and shock.

She clearly didn't say anything... That monster's understanding of her should only be limited to what Shimizu said, so why was that guy able to say such things beforehand!

'No, this isn't the time to worry about these things... We can't let her take this opportunity away again!'

Her slender hands unconsciously clenched into fists. Qing Nufang tried her best to keep her face calm, and then shook her head in refusal.

"This is demonic power formed from the foxfire's obsession and life force. If it's just an 'ordinary great demon,' I think it's best not to touch it."

She emphasized the words "ordinary great demon" very much. Since the other party claimed to be an ordinary great demon, she wouldn't be surprised if she turned the tables on him.

"Hehe, don't worry. Although I'm not very confident in other things, I'm very confident in my strength."

The girl walked up to her with a smile, her slender, fair hand gently resting on her shoulder.

"So, no problem."

“…”

Feeling the terrifying demonic power emanating from her shoulder, Qing Nufang gritted her teeth.

Is this what they call the rights of the strong...? Damn it, we don't even have a choice!

Once again experiencing the domineering attitude of the powerful, the blue-haired girl couldn't help but curse under her breath.

Meanwhile, upon hearing Ibuki-doji say that he could help the Blue Maiden Chamber remove the demonic energy, the young student's face showed a hint of surprise.

He looked at the adorable Ghost King and asked expectantly, "Really?"

"Hehe... Does my lord not trust me?"

"No... how should I put it, there was a little accident." The boy immediately shook his head and responded with some surprise.

After he finished speaking, he turned his gaze to the blue-haired girl.

"Qingnufang, let Ibuki give it a try. Since she dared to say that, she must be confident. I also want your injuries to heal quickly."

"If that doesn't work, I'll come back later and help you apply the medicine, okay?"

“…”

Upon hearing the words, the girl opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but after a while, she closed her mouth and nodded gently.

The demonic power on her shoulders grew stronger and stronger, leaving her with no choice but to make this decision.

“That’s great… I’ll leave the maid’s room to you, Ibuki.”

Seeing the girl nod in agreement, Shimizu Asahi immediately smiled with satisfaction.

"Leave it to me, sir."

After receiving the girl's assurance, the young student immediately got up and left, handing the room over to the two girls.

As the wooden door was gently closed, Ibuki-dōji's gaze, which had been fixed on the door, shifted to Aonome-fumi.

"Hehe... Now it's just the two of us, little one."

End of third update.

Chapter 70, Section 70: Ibuki-dōji: Have you also fallen for the master?

In the quiet and simple room, a dim lamp is flickering gently.

The orange-red flames not only illuminated the dim room, but also the faces of the petite demon king and the blue-haired girl.

"Alright, now that the master has left, let's begin."

Turning her gaze away from the wooden door, Ibuki-dōji gave a charming chuckle, and then loosened the sash around her waist.
