Chapter 18

Himejima Akeno is not the kind of girl who likes to cry, so after venting her grievances, she wiped away her tears, put on new clothes, and walked slowly down the unfamiliar environment. up the stairs.

The sweet and long piano music ripples, the black and white double keys interlock with each other, and beautiful notes burst out from the speakers.

Like a small boat in a violent storm, the captain and sailors worked hard to hold on to the mast and bravely fought the storm.

Just hearing the music lingering in her ears, Himejima Akeno conjured up similar images in her mind.

Matching the heavy rain outside the window, sometimes the tone is passionate, sometimes low and lengthy.

In the girl's eyes, a black-haired young man wearing short sleeves was sitting in front of the piano, his fingers jumping up and down nimbly, and beautiful notes popped out one after another.

At the end of the song, not only did it not end, but relaxed and leisurely piano music continued, as if the ship was surviving the disaster, breaking through the storm, and seeing the rainbow and light again.

Two completely different pieces of music were perfectly blended together by Ling Yun, without any strangeness.

"What are you still standing there thinking about?"

I don't know when the piano sound stopped, and Ling Yun looked at her with a smile.

It was only then that Akeno Himejima realized that she had been so absorbed in listening that she didn't even hear his shout.

Recalling the possible funny scene just now, the girl Two red clouds appeared on the face that had regained its composure.

"You played beautifully just now."

After saying this, Himejima Akeno's cheeks turned even redder.

It was pity to see her. As a layman, the only musical instrument she had ever been exposed to when she was a child was the flute made by her family, and she had not learned it for several years. Good job.

As a listener, her thoughts about Ling Yun only stop at the two words"awesome and nice"

"It's just a casual study, but it's not as good as those masters."

Ling Yun shook his head modestly and asked again

"How is the recovery from your back injury going?"

"It's completely healed and I don't feel any pain. Himejima Akeno answered truthfully.

Then, out of the corner of her eye, she couldn't help but glance at the big clock hanging on the wall. When she saw that the hour hand was pointing to eleven, she was startled and hurriedly walked down the stairs. I was in such a hurry that I accidentally tripped and fell.

"What are you doing in such a hurry?"

Ling Yun ducked in front of her. Seeing her reckless look, he asked in a funny way.

"Sorry, Master Ling Yun, I accidentally overslept. I clearly promised that all the housework would be done for me.......I'll go wash the vegetables and cook right away."

Feeling the warmth coming from her arms, Himejima Akeno broke away from Ling Yun's hand with a red face, and ran towards the kitchen without looking back.

Not long after, the sound of work began to clang.

An hour later , Athena, Ling Yun, and Himejima Akeno sat at the long table in the living room.

The black-haired ponytail girl watched Ling Yun's movements closely.

"not bad"

"call......"

Hearing these words, Himejima Akeno felt relieved

"generally."

Athena smacked her lips and commented ruthlessly.

"Well......"

After the short but warm lunch time, Himejima Akeno started busy clearing the dishes again. After finishing the housework, Ling Yun stopped her from busying herself and started chatting.

As we chatted, we talked about Himejima Akeno’s life experience.

As Ling Yun is well aware, because she is the offspring of a fallen angel and a human, her mother was forced to die in order to protect her, and she was also hunted down by the Onmyoji Himejima clan during her exile.

Looking at the red eyes of the ponytail girl, Ling Yun sighed.

"Lord Ling Yun, there are spies of the Onmyo Sect everywhere around Tokyo. If you take me with you like this, those bad guys may find out in a few days and come looking for me. Himejima

Akeno wiped the tears from her eyes and said in a low voice.

The ANBU hound troops of the five major clans are only the more elite Onmyoji organization among them. The personnel are basically unimportant side members, and their strength is far from insignificant. To reach the top.

Not to mention that the strongest members of each clan have contracts with four different spiritual beasts.

Qinglong, Suzaku, White Tiger, Xuanwu and Huanglong.

And these spiritual beasts are also the fundamental reason why the five major clans can stand today.

"It would be better if they took the initiative to find me. If it were me who went to them, the result would be completely different."

Ling Yun shrugged.

In the eyes of others, maybe this was just a sign of arrogance, but he couldn't even be serious on the surface.

Confidence comes from the foundation of strength. Onmyoji has not even appeared a few times in the original work. The aristocratic family was probably like that.

Himejima Akeno didn't know how to answer, and was quite worried.

At this moment, Himejima Akeno suddenly thought of something, and asked cautiously

"that......Lord Ling Yun, can you be my master?"

"Why?"

Ling Yun said doubtfully.

"I......I don't want to be so powerless anymore. If they come again, I won't be able to do anything for you. Himejima

Akeno said in a low voice.

"And I......I also want revenge."

She hated herself for being powerless and could only watch her mother leave her.

If she had another chance to come back, she would not run away, she would stay with her mother even if she died.

"That’s it, but have you really thought about it? Once you accept my power, you will never regret it for the rest of your life."

Ling Yun nodded.

The flames of revenge surged in the girl's heart. Himejima Akeno, who had witnessed the death of her loved ones, urgently needed strength. Although she also had the blood of fallen angels flowing in her body, she hated it so much. My biological father, I have already sworn in my heart that I will never use that"heretic" power until my death.

"You don't have that awareness now, wait until you think about it clearly before you come back."

Ling Yun smiled and shook his head.

"......Um."

Looking at Himejima Akeno's thoughtful and hesitant expression, Ling Yun took the initiative to skip the topic.

This was the first day of their encounter, and he was not in a hurry.

The rain was still falling, and it didn't get lighter until the afternoon.

Ling Yun took Athena and Ji Shima Akeno went shopping and asked the two girls to buy what they wanted.

Money was already a foreign thing to him, and he could have as much as he wanted, so he spent it as he should.

Soon, a week passed like this.

Still the same It was a peaceful day.

Akeno Himejima, whose relationship with Ling Yun had improved a lot, had regained her former liveliness a little, and behaved as if she should have the vitality and innocence of her age. When passing by a lingerie store, Ling Yun was pulled by a girl. Putting on his sleeves, he stopped

"What's wrong?"

He asked doubtfully.

Then, he saw Himejima Akeno blushing and just pointing at the underwear store without saying a word.
