Pokémon's Lord of Fear

"Kayako, I love you." Looking at the man in front of her, Kayako's hand trembled slightly. She nervously picked up the sheet music that had fallen to the ground, and then hesitantly hugged it to her chest. Although she knew that this man might have feelings for her, this overly intense emotion still made Kayako feel as if she had been scorched by the blazing sun. After all, for Kayako, her life was a tragedy and a life without love.

Kayako Kawamata, an ordinary name. She was born into a shamanic family when she was young. Her mother was a powerful shaman, while her father was almost invisible. Due to her physical condition, Kayako became the one who bore the power of her mother's exorcisms. This continued until high school, when her mother stopped practicing the profession due to certain events, and Kayako was finally freed. However, the years of suffering made Kayako a withdrawn and unsociable person. Such a person would be very out of place in the context of the island nation. After all, one of the biggest characteristics of the island nation is that people are very sociable. If people cannot read the atmosphere, they cannot fit in, which is a terrible thing in the island nation.

Kayako also had someone she liked. After all, what girl hasn't dreamed of a story with a prince? However, Kayako never dared to confess her love. She would secretly follow him and hide under his bed to listen to the sounds of his movements. Even so, Kayako felt content. But after graduating from university, her crush, Kobayashi Shunsuke, married another woman and faded from Kayako's life. Kayako lived alone in her own home, doing her own things every day. During this time, Kayako would occasionally dream of strange scenes, but she thought it was just because she was busy every day, so she didn't care much. Then one day, a gentle man named Saeki Toshio entered her life.

The story begins in a bookstore. Kayako plans to take a book home and improve her cooking skills, as cooking and raising cats are her favorite things. Cooking is part of her training as a bride, which is why she cares so much about it. Kayako also has her own thoughts; she still wants to find someone to marry, not for any particular reason, but simply to know what it feels like to be loved. Then one day, she meets Takeo Saeki, a man who isn't particularly handsome. They both reach for the same book in the bookstore, and this small coincidence brings them together.

“I really like Mr. Natsume Soseki’s works. His works are always full of unique perspectives, and his writing style is also very good.” The two met through books, and Kayako also noticed that Saeki Takeo seemed to be very knowledgeable about literary works and had his own opinions. Although he wasn’t a particularly handsome person, his literary cultivation and unique temperament still made Kayako pay some attention to him. Kayako found that Saeki Takeo had a very unique temperament, which made her feel that Saeki Takeo was like a unique writer, and also a very cultured person.

Mr. Saeki Takeo was very enthusiastic, frequently messaging her to exchange ideas about cats, books, and cooking. Kayako noticed that Mr. Saeki Takeo particularly enjoyed Chinese cuisine, a fact she secretly noted. Kayako's sensitive nature also sensed something amiss. Although she didn't have many friends, as a girl, she recognized a familiar quality in Mr. Saeki Takeo. It seemed he was interested in her, which made Kayako somewhat flustered. She hoped it was true, but also worried she was overthinking things; after all, such things had happened before. Looking at Mr. Saeki Takeo before her, Kayako wanted to say something, but held back.

"Kayako, I love you." It seemed Kayako's dazed state alerted Takeo Saeki, who grasped her hand. The intense heat stirred something within her lonely heart; her heart pounded fiercely, as if struck by an electric current. Even Mr. Kobayashi Shunsuke hadn't given her such a powerful feeling. Kayako almost wept with joy. A strong, warm feeling washed over her. She clutched her chest tightly. So, this was what it felt like to be loved? Kayako didn't know, but she was so happy. Tears streamed down her face as she frantically wiped them away. But then, Takeo Saeki pulled her into his arms. Kayako froze, and strange images flashed through her mind. Was this a couple's embrace?
Kayako's body softened, and she tentatively reached out and embraced the man before her. She could hear Mr. Saeki Takeo whispering sweet nothings, but Kayako couldn't hear anything at that moment. Her ears were ringing, and the whole world was a mess. All the darkness and gloom of the past were wiped away in this instant. Kayako happily hugged the man before her, sensing his burning heart and gradually succumbing to his advances. But Kayako dared not test the waters. She didn't know if he liked her, or if his love was real, so she didn't dare ask. Until now, she had received her answer.

"I can cook with you, raise cats together, scoop litter for Xiao Hei and feed them. I will work hard and give you the best future. I'm a bit clumsy with words, I don't know how to say many sweet nothings, but I want to give you my whole life, my whole life, Ms. Kayako, will you accept me?" Saeki Takeo looked earnestly at Kayako in front of him. Kayako's eyes were filled with tears. She covered her mouth in surprise, tears streaming down her face. She looked at the clumsy man in front of her. At this moment, the name Kobayashi Shunsuke had been completely erased from Kayako's heart, because she had met a man she liked, and who liked her too. Although he wasn't that handsome, he was a reliable man.

"Yes, please take care of me from now on, Mr. Saeki Takeo." Kayako smiled, wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes, then grasped Saeki Takeo's hand, earnestly responding to his feelings. Kayako was also very happy; she finally had someone she liked, and he liked her very much too. After accepting the confession, Kayako and Saeki Takeo's relationship quickly warmed up. Saeki Takeo was honest, gentle, and a considerate boyfriend. He could sense Kayako's little emotions and could give her sunny days, which made Kayako's heart very happy. For Kayako, a woman who had been wallowing in darkness for who knows how long, she felt an abundance of love from Saeki Takeo—love for her.

After two and a half years of dating, Kayako began to feel insecure. Saeki Takeo seemed quite busy lately, which worried her. Had she lost her charm, or had Mr. Saeki changed his mind? But one evening, in their rented apartment, Saeki Takeo jokingly pulled out a deck of prank cards for couples and played a game with Kayako. Curious, Kayako tried it and was a little embarrassed by the playful antics. She discovered the cards contained simple, fun games for couples, like giving each other massages, kissing, or loudly declaring one's love. These games reassured Kayako somewhat, but only slightly.

“Darling, it’s your turn to draw a card.” Saeki Toshio said gently to Kayako. Kayako drew a card that read, “Answer all five questions below.” This surprised Kayako a little. She pouted, thinking that Saeki Toshio must have drawn the card based on the questions. However, she still obediently accepted the rules of the game. Saeki Toshio then looked at Kayako tenderly.

"You like watching 'I Am a Cat,' right?" Teng Shu looked at Kayako in front of him, his tone gentle, while Kayako's eyes were filled with deep affection.

“Yes, I like watching ‘I Am a Cat’.” Kayako was very happy, she didn’t expect that Mr. Saeki Takeo would still remember her preferences.

"Kayako, you're a restless sleeper, aren't you?" Mr. Saeki Takeo's tone was slightly indulgent. Kayako bit her lip shyly, but still obediently agreed. "So, shouldn't we move to a bigger house?" Mr. Saeki Takeo said with a gentle smile. Kayako paused for a moment, then said, "Yes, we should move to a bigger house."

Saeki Takeo took a deep breath and composed himself. Fujiki was also a little nervous, after all, this was an important part of the strategy.

"So you're going to marry me, right?" Saeki Takeo's voice trembled slightly. Kayako subconsciously replied, "Yes, I'm going to marry you," but then she hesitated for a moment, her eyes showing surprise and disbelief.

"So you'll be happy for the rest of your life, right?" Takeo Saeki asked the last question. Kayako's voice trembled slightly, but she still blushed and said earnestly, "Yes, I will be happy."

Kayako covered her face and hid in the bathroom, while Tengshu chuckled. What a joke! He pulled out the ultimate proposal scene from the legendary anime "One Room," a show featuring a very handsome male protagonist, widely acclaimed by audiences. Kayako naturally couldn't resist such an approach. However, Tengshu also had some reflections. After successfully winning over Kayako, he realized she was actually quite easy to win over. She was insecure, sensitive, and somewhat gloomy, but precisely because of this, once given intense love, she would receive an unimaginable response. Kayako was indeed a perfect girlfriend, although she had some minor flaws, which Tengshu had already corrected.

Afterwards, Kayako successfully married Saeki Takeo, and their married life was very happy and fulfilling. Saeki Toshio was born as expected. In order to avoid any situation where the characters would not obey orders, Fujiki still had Saeki Takeo's character undergo a paternity test to confirm that Toshio was Takeo's son. Otherwise, Fujiki was worried that if the conquest was successful and Saeki Takeo regained control, it would become troublesome. So this was done for peace of mind. Later, Kayako also met Kobayashi, but this time Kayako just greeted Kobayashi calmly and then happily told her husband, Saeki Takeo, about this past. Saeki Takeo also gently said that these were not a big deal and that he was happy that Kayako could move on from the past.

This made Kayako very happy. Later in life, although Takeo Saeki had oligospermia, he still managed to give birth to another girl with Kayako. The elderly couple lived a very happy and fulfilling life, surrounded by children and grandchildren. Kayako's smile remained constant until one day, Takeo Saeki's health deteriorated. Kayako held her husband's hand, tears streaming down her face. Takeo Saeki simply smiled, touched Kayako's cheek, and said, "Don't cry. You're not as cute when you cry." Then he passed away. After Takeo Saeki breathed his last, Kayako also passed away peacefully, dying beside him. The couple left this world together.

[Congratulations! You've changed the ending of Ju-on. Thanks to your actions, Kayako has achieved a happy and fulfilling life. You've accomplished the Ju-on ending reversal achievement and are entitled to some mysterious rewards! Furthermore, Kayako's affection for you has reached its maximum; nothing you do will anger her now. You've gained Saeki Toshio's gratitude, Saeki Takeo's regret and guilt, and you've earned 100 million Fear Points!]

Looking at the reward, Teng Shu paused for a moment. One hundred million fear points? Are you serious, kid?

However, thinking about his future plans, Teng Shu became indifferent. Anyway, Teng Shu would retire in the future, so this reward made no difference. He still had a better life to live, so Teng Shu didn't care much about the reward. However, in this way, he could provide the world with a super-powerful retirement movie in the future. So Teng Shu had already thought it through. He planned to shoot an original horror film that was chilling to the core as his final work.
