The world of Type-Moon starts with saving Altria!

"Although it was Raikou who brought it up, I'm actually very happy to do it."

"so--"

"Master, it's not that Lai Guang lowered his standards, but I took the initiative to choose to marry someone higher."

"High-end?"

Yuan Manzhong shook his head.

"Based on what you have done in the past six months, it can't be considered as climbing high."

"I admit that you are indeed an excellent Onmyoji."

[Minamoto said these words with a very serious expression.]

[You realize that for the past six months, he was not indulging your contact with Minamoto no Raikou, but was just observing silently.]

【Just as Minamoto no Raikou said. 】

[Although this father looks very strict on the surface, he is actually a good elder who is concerned about his daughter. ]

【And everything you did might have been in line with his wishes. 】

"Thank you, sir."

Ian remained humble.

"Since I am in this position, I must do my best for Genji, otherwise I will be unworthy of this kindness."

"Ah."

Yuan Manzhong smiled.

"You are really good at speaking nice words."

"But speaking of this——"

Yuan Manzhong looked at the Great Onmyoji in front of him and became serious again.

"Abe, have you found the 'mind' that is entangled with the foundation of the Genji clan?"

"not yet."

Ian was very direct about his progress.

"Master, I won't hide the truth from you."

"The thoughts in Kyoto are too confusing. Even though I have spent more than half a year trying to sort out the threads, it is still very complicated."

"is it?"

Yuan Manzhong nodded.

"Sure enough."

"Then there are some things that I'd better tell you in advance."

Having said this, the general looked at the sword butt beside him.

There were two knives on it.

One was the knife he had just held in his hand, and the other was the blade that almost pierced Ian's eyeball last time.

"What do you think of these two knives?" asked Yuan Manzhong.

Hearing this question, Ian looked at the two weapons carefully.

Soon, he had the answer.

“They are all good knives.”

“Whether it’s the quality of the materials used or the forging techniques, they are all top-notch.”

"And if I'm not mistaken—"

Ian pointed to the taller one among them.

"It should be the elder brother, right?"

"..."

Yuan Manzhong looked at the other person with complicated eyes.

"Abe, how did you know that?"

"Based on my feeling." Ian answered the general's question truthfully, "That was my first impression."

“And I’m just telling the truth.”

"..."

Yuan Manzhong frowned slightly, as if he was thinking about something.

After a long while, he heaved a long sigh, as if he had accepted the reality.

"As expected of Abe."

“It’s always so awesome.”

[You feel that the tone of Minamoto Manzhong is a little strange. ]

[Whether before or now. ]

[The surname Abe seems to have some special meaning to him. ]

【You decide to ask further questions.】

"master."

Ian looked directly at the general in front of him.

"Excuse me, is there anything special about the last name Abe?"

"Of course."

Yuan Manzhong looked at the two brother swords in front of him, as if recalling some scene.

"The names of these two blades are 'Higekiri' and 'Kamimaru'. They are the blades I used in battle."

"And the one who gave them to me—"

Yuan Manzhong looked at Ian in front of him.

"I have the same last name as you."

"what?!"

After hearing the news, even someone as calm as Ian couldn't help but show a surprised expression.

"Is he a blacksmith, then?"

"No." Yuan Manzhong shook his head.

"He is an Onmyoji just like you."

"..."

Although Ian was shocked, he soon realized a new problem.

"So are the rumors in Kyoto right now actually all about him?"

If that's the case, it's no wonder that Gen Manzhong had that attitude when he first met me.

"maybe."

Minamoto Mannaka looked at "Higikiri" and "Kinamaru".

"But now based on your performance, I think you deserve these rumors."

"Abe, I can see that Raikou really likes you."

"So if you really want to marry her, I won't stop you."

"but--"

Gen Manzhong shifted his gaze from the two swords and then looked at the great Onmyoji in front of him.

"There are things I must tell you."

"Raikou has a destiny that I don't know about."

"On the day she was born, the Yin-Yang master who has the same last name as you mentioned something to me."

"That is, Raikou's fate is closely linked to the future of the Genji, and he will only allow me to keep one of them."

"And as the head of the Genji clan, I have no other choice."

"I can only let Lai Guang bear a fate I don't know about."

【You realize that this is the problem that Yuan Manzhong once faced. 】

【That is a multiple-choice question with only one option. 】

[As the head of the family, it is impossible for him to give up the entire clan for the sake of his eldest daughter. ]

【However, he has not forgotten his father's identity. 】

[The overly strict concern for his daughter actually came from his heartfelt worry. ]

"Master, maybe you have forgotten something because you are too busy."

"what's up?"

"There is more than one powerful Onmyoji."

Ian looked straight at Yuan Manzhong in front of him, as if he was the high-ranking general at this moment.

"If he can do it, I can do it too."

"Since he forces you to choose a clan."

"Then I will choose Raikou for you."

"..."

If someone else had said this, Genmanzhong would probably have thought it was just bragging.

But when it comes to this Onmyoji with the surname "Abe", he no longer thinks it is false.

After all, his daughter chose him.

And he does have the abilities to match it.

"I understand."

"In that case, you should marry Raikou as your wife."

Yuan Manzhong reached for the knife butt beside him.

"Rai Guang loves Wu."

"Consider 'Higekiri' and 'Kamimaru' as my gifts."

"Thank you, sir."

"I will definitely protect Raikou well."

[Minamoto no Mitsunaka approved your marriage to Minamoto no Raikou. ]

[As one of the most powerful clans in Heian-kyō, your wedding will be grand and lively. 】

[Even a three-year-old child can remember the shy look of Minamoto no Raikou in your arms. ]

[You became husband and wife with the blessings of the people of Kyoto. ]

[After the commotion, you entered the same dormitory openly for the first time. 】

[This is your wedding night that belongs only to the two of you. ]

"Master."

Minamoto no Raikou looked at Ian in front of him shyly.

“I never thought we would be able to reach this day.”

"Yes."

Ian smiled.
