Gu Yun waved his hands repeatedly, explaining, "The one I want to summon is not the red leaf from a thousand years ago."

"Although they have the same name, they are not the same person. If I had to say, they would be from the same race."

The monsters that Gu Yun awakened from the Shikigami Scroll were all completely new individuals.

Just like the Three-Tailed Fox and Little White, it was Gu Yun who gave them life and created them in this world.

"But..."

Gu Yun recalled the character design of the demon girl Momiji in the game. She should be a yandere, the kind that is very dangerous.

"Anyway, I will protect you, Nao-nee."

With this assurance, Gu Yun unfolded a scroll in her heart, then faced the maple forest in front of her and called out in an extremely gentle tone, "I love you, Red Leaf."

"Hu~~"

"Clatter, crash, crash."

As Gu Yun finished speaking, the maple leaves swayed, and the dim sunset seemed to be shrouded in shadow, making Hayasaka Nao feel a little depressed.

"Ah, Lord Gu Yun, you called for me."

"I'm so happy, Hongye is really happy."

"Red Leaf will always, always love Lord Gu Yun..."

The gentle voice echoed in the dappled shadows of the maple leaves. The red leaves' voice carried a hint of shyness, yet also a deep sense of dependence and infatuation.

"Finally, it's nice to see you again."

The next moment, a fair and delicate hand slowly emerged from behind Gu Yun's neck and gently turned the boy's face to face her.

Momiji is beautiful, but she's different from the SR Oni-onna Momiji in the game.

The figure that appeared before Gu Yun was none other than Momiji in her fully awakened state—SP Heart Hunter Momiji.

She was born to be a pawn in the family's revival, and her constant suppression and obedience only resulted in her being abandoned by her closest relatives in the Red Leaf Forest.

Perhaps her life was meant to end this way, but she was haunted by an obsession that she could not let go of, and in the end, she transformed from a human into a demon.

The gates of the six realms have opened, and demonic energy is rampant, wreaking havoc on the world.

Faced with a desperate situation, Hongye had no choice but to fight back against the evil demon, but in the end, she was also corrupted by the evil energy, and her body decayed rapidly.

"So cute, my Lord Gu Yun."

Hongye gently embraced Guyun, and the two floated in mid-air, surrounded by countless red leaves.

Although Gu Yun only looked eight or nine years old, this did not hinder Hongye's love for him.

Hongye didn't know why Guyun had become like this.

In her memory, she was abandoned, and it was Gu Yun who appeared in front of her and saved her.

The connection between shikigami and onmyoji is that their souls and minds are closely linked.

Therefore, Hongye would not mistake the adorable boy before her; he was the master she had been waiting for, loved, and wanted to repay.

"This is terrifying, such a level of demonic power."

Prajna stood gracefully to the side, observing Hongye while sensing the immense demonic power within the woman.

In this state, Momiji's pure demonic power level is already comparable to that of a great demon.

The only difference is that the great demon has its own hundred demons, while Momiji does not.

"But your condition probably won't last long, right?"

"Are they the master's other shikigami?"

Hongye looked at Banruo, then glanced at Xiaobai on the ground: "Are you Banruo, and you, Baizangzhu?"

Instantly recognizing the two demons, Hongye revealed a bewitching smile, while simultaneously holding Gu Yun in her arms even tighter.

"Ok?"

Prajna frowned and said with displeasure, "Master doesn't belong to you alone. Quickly put Lord Gu Yun down!"

"That's right, that's right, let go of Master right now!"

Who wouldn't want to have Gu Yun all to themselves and enjoy his love and companionship?

But whether it's Prajna, or Xiaobai, or the Three-Tailed Fox, they all have their own sense of propriety and would never do anything to displease Gu Yun.

However, the red leaves are somewhat different.

Or rather, her current state is different from that of Hongye in her normal state.

Kokoro Momiji represents collapse and decay.

It's somewhat like the Valkyrie's Crimson Corruption in the Old Man's Ring; although it grants immense power, it also causes Momiji's body and spirit to be constantly corrupted.

Therefore, there is no time limit for Momiji's Heart Hunting Mode.

Before she completely went mad, Kureha was able to maintain her current state, possessing combat power comparable to a great demon.

"This, this is your new shikigami, young master?"

"so beautiful."

The autumn leaves possess a bewitching beauty, a unique charm that even captivated Nao Hayasaka.

"Humanity?"

Momiji had been focusing her attention on Tanigumo until now, when she finally noticed Hayasaka Nao.

She assumed that the creatures Gu Yun carried with him were his shikigami.

I never expected there was still a human among them.

"Hongye, this is my older sister."

"Nice to meet you, Miss Momiji," the girl said. "My name is Hayasaka Nao. Please take care of me."

Gu Yun quickly introduced the two to each other. Hongye had a somewhat yandere personality and was the kind of person who could go crazy at any time.

Moreover, she was naturally jealous and couldn't stand seeing other women around Gu Yun, fearing that her beloved would be taken away by someone else.

"What a pretty face."

Kouye looked into Hayasaka Nao's eyes, then withdrew her hand: "If you are such a beauty, then I will allow you to serve Lord Tanigumo."

She is indeed somewhat yandere and manic, but she is not without reason.

When calm, Hongye is very intelligent and responsible, and she is willing to do everything in her power to protect the area.

However, her emotions are unstable; sometimes she can be extremely crazy and cold.

"Lord Gu Yun, I cannot maintain this posture for too long, I am afraid I will lose control."

"Yes, just keep your usual routine."

“But in that case,” Hongye said with some concern, “Hongye’s strength is insufficient. The ability of a mere high-level demon is probably not enough to protect you.”

"It's alright, it's alright, there aren't that many dangers in the world these days."

Gu Yun still needs Prajna and the Three-Tailed Fox to properly educate Hongye on this point.

This is not Heian-kyo as it was a thousand years ago; there are not so many demons and monsters wreaking havoc in the region now.

Even if powerful demons exist, they will hide in the shadows. As long as Gu Yun and ordinary people do not venture into them, it is virtually impossible for them to come into contact with them.

“Then, Hongye understands.”

The demonic power gradually dissipated, the tattoos adorned with maple leaves began to disappear, and her clothes changed into a proper and conservative blue-purple kimono.

"Hehe, Lord Gu Yun, does this kind of red leaf suit your taste?"

Hongye twirled around in front of Gu Yun, but the boy was not yet ten years old, and with his current physical condition, he could only think that the girl was very pretty.

Love and such things will have to wait until he becomes a teenager.

"Oh, is that so?"

"The human body is such an inconvenient thing."

Once the summoning of the red leaves was complete, Gu Yun asked Hayasaka Nao to take him back.

Among the shikigami, Momiji entered the second layer of the world, on the same level as Tanigumo. However, ordinary people like Hayasaka Nao could neither see her nor touch her.

Xiao Bai once again slipped into Gu Yun's shadow, while Banruo and Yingcao returned to the courtyard space depicted in the scroll, silently guarding their master's heart.

Chapter 24 The Iijima Family are Masters Among the Common People

"Master."

Back at the Iijima mansion, the maids greeted him and Hayasaka Nao, saying, "Dinner is ready."

"Hasn't Mother returned yet?"

“Madam has something to do at the company and will be back later,” Nao Hayasaka said. “She told us to eat first.”

Gu Yun nodded and led Hayasaka Nao to the living room.

"Let's eat together, Nao-nee."

Even though Hayasaka Nao is the etiquette instructor for the Iijima family, she is exceptionally indulgent towards Tanigumo whenever Iijima Tamaki is not around.

It was the mother who seemed to be treating the situation harshly.

Tamaki Iijima: A world where only I am hurt?

"Ah."

Nao Hayasaka sat down to the side and murmured softly, "I'm starting."

After the meal, Gu Yun summoned the three-tailed fox. She had the idea of ​​becoming a maid in the Iijima family. Now that Hayasaka Nao knew about the existence of demons, there was no need to hide it from her anymore.

"Let me introduce you to Nao-nee."

Gu Yun: "This is a three-tailed fox."

"It's a pleasure to meet you. I am a three-tailed fox. Please take good care of me, Miss Hayasaka."

"Hello."
