The following text:

Before I start telling the story, maybe I should introduce myself first.

My name is Minamoto Yorimitsu, the head of the Minamoto clan.

Also the protagonist of this story.

After understanding this, the next story can begin to be told.

The starting point of life named Minamoto Raimitsu began in a winter 20 years ago.

On a windless and snowless evening, Genji's wife gave birth to a child amidst struggles.

Although she was a girl, she was not trained to be a witch or a woman for other purposes because of her white fetal hair and overly strong natural spiritual power. Concealing his identity, he was raised as his own eldest son.

Her overly amazing talent was also revealed little by little afterwards, and she did not live up to those expectations.

The strongest onmyoji in Heianjing, this title does not give her the slightest moisture.

"But it won't be so in a few years."

The white-haired woman dressed in men's clothing said in a flat voice, as if she was stating a fact.The corners of her clothes were still slightly wet, from which it could be known that she had entered the room from the outside before, and perhaps had experienced some walking in the night, so that the corners of her clothes were soaked in the night dew. "Qingming has grown up, Father."

"He'll pass me soon."

Yuan Manzhong, who was ill, was not angry about this fact. Genji's patriarch was old enough to point out the key points easily. "Isn't that just right?" he said, "If there is only one kind of flower from beginning to end, people will get bored very quickly. But if there are more choices, the time to be bored will be much later."

"Too much of a presence makes other people feel uncomfortable—"

"It's an overly sharp blade that makes the superior feel threatened."

The young Mina Mina Minamoto is more aggressive than her older father. She has not experienced as much wind and rain as Yuan Manzhong, nor has she gone through the same long years as Yuan Manzhong, so this young The young man still maintains the vigor she should have at her age.

"After there is no one who should wield the weapon, the person holding the knife will feel afraid because of the sharpness of the weapon, and will start to worry about whether the weapon without the scabbard will hurt him, and then he will start to think about whether to destroy himself. A weapon that poses a threat."

"But if it is a weapon with a scabbard—restriction—it won't give people an excessive sense of crisis."

"That child—Seimei, isn't that why he was allowed to study in Genji?"

Yuan Laiguang said.

The origin of the Genji family, the origin of this family at the beginning is the eight princes and princesses who were reduced to subject status during the period of Emperor Saga. grow.

The special origin and identity also gave the family more privileges and resources.Genji is a family between the "royal family" and "courtier", and is constantly wandering between these two positions. Although there is no exact position, it has brought some troubles, and the roles they play are constantly changing. , but this undoubtedly brought them a lot of convenience.

At least compared to those courtiers, the emperor is more willing to trust them in a certain sense of "families".

After all, the blood of the Sun Goddess' favor flows through their bodies.

A subtle sense of peace from the blood.

Even though sometimes he is indeed feared because of this same bloodline, but from now on, he still gets more benefits.

It is precisely because of the trust from the emperor that the current Genji is the most powerful clan among the Onmyoji in Kyoto.

He shoulders the important task of guarding the capital and killing demons, and also treasures an unknown amount of knowledge about Yin and Yang.Generously share these materials with more people, and there are countless onmyoji and witches who study under the door, driving many powerful shikigami——

Today's Genji is such a family.

Although the official position is still retained, the center of gravity of the family has been shifted since Minamoto Yorimitsu's grandfather's generation, because of the emperor's hint.By the time they were in Yuan Laiguang's hands, their voices in the court hall had become much quieter.

It is completely an Onmyoji family.

At least on the surface, it's true.

On the contrary, Genji has gained more and more fame in the ghost world.

is notoriety.

A taboo that needs to be crushed.

This is poured out by the blood of those ghosts who died under the knife of Genji Onmyouji.

"You can't finish killing monsters...but it's not an option to continue killing like this." Yuan Manzhong said to his eldest son that way, "Not everyone is like a samurai who can enjoy the scenery of the blood-stained blade. .”

"For other people, they will feel more fear."

Then half a month later, he accepted Abe Seimei, who was sent by his father to Genji to study onmyoji.

It was Minamoto Raimitsu who led Abe Seimei into Genji at that time.

Minamoto Yorimitsu remembered that the child was still very young when his father sent him to Genji.

Even if he is indeed precocious, and indeed has strong spiritual power, he still hasn't got rid of the inherent limitations of age, and there is still a kind of naive ignorance left in him.

She didn't think too much when she took the child's hand and led him into Genji, except for the subconscious assessment--the small hands and feet are soft, and she is an ordinary child who has not been trained in martial arts--I just feel that this is true. He is a good seedling, and he will definitely become a very powerful onmyoji in the future.

And young enough to have neither thoughts nor formed concepts of his own.It is the best time to give education. As long as the education is in place and watered from an early age, you will definitely be able to become a capable general of Genji in the future.

In line with the idea of ​​cultivating Genji seedlings, Minamoto Yorimitsu gave him some care and special treatment during the first half year when Abe Seimei joined Genji.

After that, she doesn't need to be kind.A natural talent like Abe Seimei will not be obscured even if it is thrown in the dirt, let alone in a large-scale professional talent training institution like Genji.He showed his talent in a very short time, which made Minamoto no longer conceal his favoritism and love for him, and then——

Half a year later, Abe Seimei became Genmanzhong's personal disciple.

All the materials of Genji are open to him for him to study and copy, which is second only to Genji's young master Yuan Laiguang.

It is no exaggeration to say that Abe Seimei is a genius cultivated by Genji.

If he is willing to stay in Genji, with his own talent, as well as the excessive preference of Genji's rulers—and the future rulers' excessive preference for him, he can become a pivotal existence in this behemoth.

"The only pity is one thing." The onmyoji who studied in Genji said, "That guy, that half-demon—"

"He himself gave up such a future and left Genji."
