Chapter 29

At half past ten at night, Li An saw it was getting late, so he said, "Let's call it a day here. Tomorrow it's my turn to teach you magic."

Kurahashi Kyoko nodded and said, "Alright, up to you."

She was also a bit sleepy and wanted to rest early.

Li An waited until Kurahashi Kyoko went back to her room to rest, then looked at Hotarugusa, who was sitting obediently to the side.

"Are you really Hotarugusa?" Li An asked for confirmation.

"Mm-hmm, Master, I am Hotarugusa." The little Hotarugusa nodded.

"Looks like it's really a shikigami from Onmyoji." As he spoke, Li An used the Shadow Manipulation Technique again, planning to summon the remaining nine shikigami so everyone could get acquainted.

However, to his surprise, it actually failed!

He only summoned two shikigami—Warrior Boy and Warrior Girl—and the remaining seven—Yuki-onna, Bai Lang, Ubume, Shiro, Kuro, Kyouka, and Wakamusa—could not be summoned.

Through the feedback of the technique, Li An learned that the remaining shikigami needed to be tamed before they could be used.

"Seems like Fushiguro Megumi's Shadow Manipulation Technique works the same way. After the technique awakens, you first get two Divine Dogs; the other shikigami need to be tamed before use, and in the end you can control ten shikigami!" Recalling the technique's setting, Li An couldn't help but smile.

The so-called taming means defeating those shikigami yourself, subduing them, before you can command them.

For him, this was simply too easy.

However, Li An didn't rush to subdue the shikigami right away, but instead looked at Warrior Boy and Warrior Girl.

The two little ones were both very cute. Although they had human heads and bodies, their limbs were wings and claws.
