Help! I changed the gender of the male protagonist in the yandere game.

Chapter 40 "I...seem to be dying"

Mermaids are a special kind of monster. It is said that their whole body is full of treasures, their tears turn into pearls, and eating their meat can make people immortal.

According to legend in the island country of Japan, there was a woman in Wakasa Province who lived to be 800 years old because she ate the flesh of mermaids. She was called Yaobikuni.

Of course, there is also a saying that this eight hundred nuns were hosted by the Dragon God and received the elixir of immortality from the Dragon God.

"Mermaids...are originally related to the Dragon Palace and the Dragon God."

Baijie thought that there were no props in the game.

According to Snow Yashahime, the function of mermaid meat is to allow the game character to automatically recover health when the health is low.

"Even if you are seriously injured, as long as your heart and head are not crushed, any injury can be healed by the life energy given to you by the mermaid flesh."

Yuki Yashahime said calmly, "Also, instant death spells and curses are no longer effective on you. It would be best to use physical means to kill you."

"Um...if my head is chopped off, can it be restored?"

Baijie asked questions.

"As long as the head isn't smashed and it's reattached quickly, there's no problem."

"However, I must remind you that the most important thing to unleash this power is that you must possess a strong will to survive. As long as you don't want to die, the mermaid flesh will continue to exert its effects."

Lake Master Yuki Yashahime states that as long as his heart and brain tissue are not damaged and his vitality is still there, regeneration and recovery will continue, and Baijie will have vitality several times that of an ordinary person.

"Maintaining a strong will to live? Will this regenerative power continue while I'm unconscious?"

He was dissatisfied with this vague explanation and hoped to get more information.

"That has nothing to do with it."

The lake owner said: "No matter what state you are in, as long as you don't give up the idea of ​​life, this power will continue."

not bad.

Bai Jie thought, from this perspective, the benefits brought by this mermaid meat are quite great.

I got the Fei Shi Xiang Fruit and the Shukuchi Amulet.

The Night Tapir Egg can be said to be a pleasant surprise.

Finally, there is an extra bonus: Mermaid Flesh.

This trip of mine can be described as a "full load".

……

Seeing Baijie's figure gradually disappearing in the fog, Yue Jialuo Yeming felt a little anxious.

"Yinmo Luogui."

She summoned her own shikigami.

In the darkness, there was a loud flapping sound of wings, and in an instant, something flew past the girl's head.

"sorry to bother you."

As she spoke, a huge dark figure flew over, flapping its wings and crying out in a terrifying way.

Yue Jialuo Yeming jumped towards the misty lake. She did not fall into the water. Instead, a claw stretched out and grabbed her arm.

Under the dark moonlight, an ugly monster bird with a human face stretched out its claws. The black claws were strong and ferocious, and its upper limbs were bulging with muscles. The black claws stretched out by the strange bird flexibly grasped the girl's arm, and her body was also pulled into the air.

The ugly demon bird had the face of an old man, resembling a crow. Its neck and shoulders were encircled by a strange halo of silver hair that gleamed in the moonlight. This was Yue Jialuo Yeming's Shikigami, Yinmo Luogui.

It is said that the original prototype is a crane-shaped demon. However, in the stories circulating in the island nation, it is a strange bird with a human face.

Yue Jialuo Yeming tracked Baijie's whereabouts from the air and found that he came to the center of the lake through a "road" hidden in the moonlight. There was a protruding rock there, like an island in the middle of the lake.

"Master Baijie, what are you doing?"

Suddenly, at this moment, white mist quickly surged up, Bai Jie's figure swayed in the mist, and in a blink of an eye, it dissolved into the pale mist and turned invisible.

"this?"

Yue Jialuo Yeming descended from the sky, and another vortex of fog rolled over. She waved her hand suddenly, and powerful spiritual power spread out, forming a gust of wind that blew away the surrounding fog.

"...where are the people?"

She flicked the claws of the human-faced bird "Yinmo Luogui" and landed lightly on the ground from mid-air.

The soft hem of the girl's kimono moved gracefully, and the moment it fell, she tiptoed, and the black leather shoes on her feet landed on the rock first.

"Why did it suddenly disappear?"

Ye Ming couldn't see Bai Jie's figure, he seemed to have really disappeared.

At the same time, most of the fog on the lake surface dissipated, and the Snow Yasha Lake under the moonlight fell into a quiet beauty, and the lake surface was like a mirror.

"It's impossible for it to just disappear like that, right?"

She felt confused and extremely worried at the same time.

Suddenly, a severe dizziness instantly flooded into his brain.

Ye Ming stopped.

Well…

The girl covered her forehead with her hands. It felt as if her head was stuffed with a pile of seaweed. Her eyes were blurry and dizzy, and her stomach began to ache.

"This is……"

Her head felt dizzy and her stomach felt uncomfortable, so she squatted down on the spot to resist the unbearable feeling of nausea.

"My body, what's going on..."

Yue Jialuo Yeming pressed her hands against her abdomen. Pain radiated from the very center of her abdomen. She had never been ill before, but now it felt as if she were entangled in spiderwebs, her body heavy, sluggish, and unable to move.

"no!"

I still need to find someone.

"Maybe in the lake..."

She came to this conclusion.

It would be best to go into the lake and investigate. She also didn't understand why she was so concerned about Bai Jie.

Perhaps, it was because he wanted to repay his savior.

——No, not really… It’s possible that I saw the figure of someone familiar in him.

She could still remember some things about her experience in the spider's nest, and she had not forgotten the memory of being saved by Baijie.

At that time, Ye Ming almost overlapped the figure of the Genin who saved him with that of a friend from the past.

As his consciousness began to drift, Yue Jialuo Yeming recalled a childhood experience—a scorching summer day. A warm breeze caressed his cheeks. The sun shone brightly through the trees—the feeling of summer filled his body, and the chirping of cicadas filled the air.

"We must...find—"

The girl stood up shakily.

As if struck by lightning, an indescribable burning and pain spread through her lower abdomen. She saw stars, and the sudden dizziness made her vision spin and she almost fell.

"Are you OK?"

A hand reached out and grasped hers.

The girl's consciousness gradually faded, she shook her head, and collapsed.

……

In the mirage created by the lake owner, Yuki Yashahime, the speed at which time passes is different from that in the outside world.

As soon as Bai Jie returned, he was surprised to find Ye Ming about to faint. She was as weak as a puppet with its strings cut.

"Master Ye Ming, are you okay?"

He hurriedly grabbed her and held her shoulders.

"I...feel like I'm dying."

Yue Jialuo Yeming opened her eyes slightly. Her face looked extremely weak and she almost collapsed in Baijie's arms.

"Are you cursed, or what happened?"

Baijie was shocked.

Could it be that Yue Jialuo Yeming was attacked in the short time that he was away?

"No, I don't know."

The girl's face turned pale. She shook her head and uttered weak words from her open mouth: "I don't know what's going on. My stomach hurts so much."

She smiled at Baijie.

"I'm truly sorry, Mr. Hyakusuke... Now, please listen to my final words. I have something to leave for Ayaka and Matsudaira..."

"Wait a minute."

Bai Jie quickly asked, "Excuse me, Lord Ye Ming, what kind of illness do you have?"

As he said this, an idea suddenly occurred to him, and he quickly asked, "Are you dizzy, nauseous, wanting to vomit, or feeling weak all over?"

"Yes."

She nodded blankly, and finally added: "I think I'm bleeding, down there..."

After hearing this, Bai Jie almost fell to the ground. Well, the truth was finally revealed.

"Things in the world are just like this. The moon waxes and wanes, and comings and goings are impermanent," Ye Ming smiled palely, and her lips turned white as if she was lacking blood.

"However, I haven't recovered the Yuejialuo clan's territory yet, nor have I achieved any great achievements... I am somewhat unwilling to die like this."

Baijie sighed deeply in his heart.

"Master Ye Ming, you will not die."

"At this point, there's no point in saying these words to comfort me."

Her lips trembled slightly: "I know I'm going to die."

"You won't die."

Bai Jie said expressionlessly: "Master Ye Ming, please believe me, you are not sick at all, you just -"

He paused for a moment, cleared his throat, and suppressed his embarrassment.

"It's coming."

The girl was stunned for a moment.

Then, her eyes widened, as if she understood something, and her whole face turned red as if it was on fire.

"Ya ...

She let out a scream like a wail.

……

There was no time to pay attention to Yue Jialuo Yeming who was overwhelmed by shame.

Baijie hurriedly picked her up and sent her into the camp. He secretly woke up his sister Ayaka and told her the situation.

Ayaka's face turned pale after hearing this, but she still took on the responsibility of taking care of her brother and explained to her in great detail the cyclical physiological problems unique to women.

However, Yue Jialuo Yeming had curled up into a ball at this time and fell into autistic mode.

After dealing with all this, Baijie finally breathed a sigh of relief and planned to go back and rest.

At the same time, after learning the news, someone on the other side of the shadow and someone who had been eavesdropping for a long time also made a move.

——It’s finally started. According to this calculation, it will be finished in 16 days...

—Huh? So quick! Looks like I'll need to make a personal visit soon, and bring some Qi-boosting medicine along...

The ghost girls of the Kurohimeyama clan hid in the dark and sneered and chuckled.

They wait quietly for the opportunity to come, the day when the fruit is ripe.
