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

Chapter 48 The Tragic Brother-in-law

Jiujiujin Yigui.

Ayaka's older brother. He is also the sworn brother of the protagonist, Tsukigara Yamei.

He is generally called "Brother-in-law" on the Internet because there are a lot of players who claim that "Ayaka is my wife" and "My sister is the main wife". Since there are so many wives in the party, everyone is used to calling a ghost "Brother-in-law".

However, considering his life experience, he is also an NPC who is often nicknamed "the tragic brother-in-law" by players of "Miracle of the Dark Moon".

On the other hand, it is also a character in the game that cannot join the player's camp.

Speaking of the character of my brother-in-law, just as the game players say, he is, in a nutshell, a "tragic figure."

Yigui and Yigui are two surviving orphans of the Jiujiujin clan. They were adopted by Yuejia Luo Yeming's father and became his adopted sons.

He showed amazing talent when he was still young, and as he grew older, his talent became even more brilliant. He soon came to the fore and joined the imperial court's "Twelve Protectors of the Saints", ranking tenth.

However, it is believed that when the Yuejialuo clan's territory was destroyed, Jiujiutsu Ichiki watched the crisis indifferently and did not actively provide assistance.

He was regarded by the branch families and retainers as an "ungrateful person", "an ungrateful wolf cub", "a person who forgot his roots after climbing up the social ladder", "a fool who was proud of himself after marrying the daughter of a great noble in the capital"... It can be said that anyone from the Yuejialuo clan hated Jiujiutsu Ikki extremely.

Moreover, in the early stage of the game, he appeared as a "pseudo-villain". Kukutsu Ichiki sneered at the protagonist while obstructing the protagonist's actions, giving people a very annoying feeling.

However, it is not until later in the plot that we discover the good intentions of this man. Everything he does has a profound purpose. It is not because he is foul-mouthed or has a bad heart. He is just forced to play such a role.

However, he is not willing to accept his fate and has been secretly resisting. In other words, he is a character who shoulders heavy responsibilities and has great awareness.

However, Yigui's ending in the game is not good. He only has bad endings in the game, such as sacrificing himself to protect the protagonist.

In order to save the protagonist group, he single-handedly held back a powerful enemy of the demon king level and died in battle;
Either they were caught up in a court conspiracy and died an untimely death, or they voluntarily died under his knife in order to save the protagonist;
The worst thing is that in several bad endings, he will face the fate of his wife and children being separated and his entire family being killed.

"A good man, but no reward..."

"Brother-in-law, it's really rare to find a great judge in this cesspool of a world filled with scumbags, crazy women, sickly women, and landmines everywhere. It's a pity that good people don't get good rewards."

"He's a good brother, a good colleague, a good husband, a good father, a good son...Except for being bad to me, my brother-in-law is a good person in every way."

In the game's plot, the character of Kukutsu Ikki is portrayed very well, making him one of the best-received characters in the game.

Swish!
A figure knelt at the feet of Jiujiutsu Ichiki.

"Sir, the low-level insect demons in the temple have been eliminated... Our people are treating the injured, and the situation in the temple has been stabilized."

"Thank you for your hard work... Keep going."

A ghost waved his sleeves, and the masked figure disappeared mysteriously again. He must have used invisibility magic.

"Okay, now that the outsiders have left, let's talk about some serious business—"

Jiujiutsu Ichiki must have cast a silent barrier to block out the surrounding sounds. At the same time, his eyes were also fixed on Ye Ming.

"Did you take the King of Shinse and the Mizutsu Sword?"

He fixed his eyes on the girl and held out a hand.

"Give me the sword."

“This.”

The girl swallowed and lowered her eyes. In front of this big brother, she shrank like a little animal.

"No, no... This is my father's sword."

"Wrong, that's the master's sword."

Jiujiutu Ichigui said calmly: "Only the person who succeeds the head of the family is qualified to pick up these two swords. Ye Ming, in my opinion, you are not suitable to be the head of the Yuejialuo family. Hurry up and hand over the sword to me."

"But I am my father's son."

Ye Ming's voice was very weak.

Jiujiutu Ichiki snorted coldly: "I am also my father's son. The Yuejialuo clan should have a more suitable person as the head of the family."

His right hand grabbed in the air, and before Yue Jialuo Yeming could react, she felt a suction force that directly rolled up the sword "True World King" in her hand.

Swish!
With a flash of air, the knife fell into the hands of Jiujiutsu Ichiki.

"A ghost master!"

Matsudaira Inomaru roared.

"What are you planning to do? This is the master's knife, are you planning to take it by force?!"

"I am also the heir of the family head."

A ghost said slowly: "Matsudaira, are you getting senile? Why can't I take the master's knife?"

"you?"

Mr. Matsudaira didn't know how to respond for a moment.

"Just right."

A ghost glanced at everyone present.

"Even Miss Ba, the Acting Patriarch of the Yanwu Family, is here. According to the family tradition, the next Patriarch's throne will be decided based on strength...Ye Ming, as long as you can defeat me, I will let you be the Patriarch."

"But, but...Brother..."

The girl bit her lip.

Since she was a child, she often competed with a ghost in swordsmanship, but never won.

"I……"

"Hmph." A ghost sensed her hesitation and raised one end of his lips in a mocking manner.

"Come to think of it, you've never defeated me in a sword fight, so you probably don't have the courage to challenge me. Besides, with your current state, how could you possibly be my opponent?"

His attitude was arrogant and tough, and even Yanwuba from the branch family raised his eyebrows in anger when he heard his words.

"Woo..."

She seemed to be under pressure from the other person's gaze and could not help but take about half a step back.

"That attitude again?"

A ghost frowned, looking extremely displeased.

"I've always been disgusted by your indecisiveness. Are you really the child of your adoptive father, Washizu-sama?"

After being told this, the girl lowered her head and tightly grasped Baijie's sleeve like a scolded puppy.

A ghost glanced at Baijie with some surprise.

At this moment, Baijie could feel the other person's eyes, which were filled with the question of "Who is this guy?"

Suddenly, Tomoe, the acting head of the Kariya family, couldn't help but speak.

"Yigui, are you still as arrogant as before?"

"Miss Ba, this is serious."

Ikki replied calmly, "This isn't arrogance. It's simply out of consideration for the Tsukigara clan. I've also been deeply cared for by my adoptive father, Washizu-sama, and this is a way of repaying the favor."

"When the Yuejia Luo family's territory was threatened by demons, I didn't see you respond in kind?"

"I believe the situation was already irreversible. To defeat a demon king-level demon, we would need the combined efforts of at least the Twelve Holy Guardians, or at least seven super-level demon exorcists, to have a chance of expelling it."

A ghost sighed: "This is equivalent to taking away about half of the combat power defending the capital. This is not realistic."

"So you just watched him die without helping him."

Tomoe asked back with a sneer.

"The court promised that as long as I continue to serve as the Twelve Guardians of the Holy Land, the Yuejialuo family name will be recognized. Even if I return to the territory alone, I will only die."

A ghost's voice was very serious.

"Even if I have to abandon Master Washizu, I will protect the Tsukigara clan. I don't think there is anything wrong with my judgment."

His answer was flawless, and even Kariya Tomoe couldn't find any flaws.

The demons in this world are divided according to their strength, roughly into miscellaneous demons, mature demons, big demons, fierce demons, demon generals and demon kings.

The most powerful among human exorcists are called "super-class". Xiao Hagi and Gehua are both at this level. The super-class is the pinnacle of human limits, corresponding to the demon general level among demons.

Moreover, there are natural differences between humans and monsters, which results in the total spiritual power of human super-level being far inferior to that of upper-level monster generals.

Most human super-level warriors were equivalent to mid-level demon generals. A super-level exorcist would be severely disadvantaged if they encountered a high-level demon general.

Furthermore, to deal with a demon king, at least seven or more super-level exorcists are needed to "expel" him. Remember, we're expelling a demon king-level being. To completely kill and seal the opponent, I'm sorry, but we'd better call in the Sword Saint, Bow Saint, Spear Saint, and Fist Saint, right?

On the other hand, the Twelve Saint Guardians are generally super-class exorcists. They are the most powerful fighting force of the island country's court and the "iron wall" that protects the capital where the royal family lives.

It can be said that if you want to defeat the demon king, you need to withdraw more than half of the capital's defensive forces.

"Ye Ming, give me the master's knife."
Yigui said calmly, "You are not fit to be the head of the family. Let me take over. I will also be responsible for the revival of the Yuejialuo family... Of course, I will only be the temporary head of the family. After I have recovered the territory and rebuilt the family, I will return the family headship and territory to your child. The name of the Yuejialuo family will not disappear, and I will also try to negotiate and resolve the issues with the court."

His tone was very sincere.

However, almost no one present believed him.

Because of Yigui's attitude, everyone thinks he is an ambitious person and all he says are nice words.

The only exception was Bai Jie. He knew that what his brother-in-law said was true and he really intended to revive the Yuejialuo clan.

As for not wanting Ye Ming to be the head of the family, on the one hand, there are many things involved behind this matter, and on the other hand, they are afraid that the ambitions of the Heijishan clan will drag Yue Jialuo into a bigger turmoil.

In addition, the fact that he "stood by and did nothing" when his territory was threatened did not exist, because he was seriously injured and could not move at all.

"However, letting Yue Jialuo Yeming give up the position of head of the family is not necessarily a bad thing, because becoming the head of the family will have a certain impact on the future situation. From a certain perspective, giving up the position of head of the family will have certain benefits for the protagonist... It just means that a few events will be triggered."

Baijie was thinking.

This matter has both advantages and disadvantages, the key is how to operate it, but...

His gaze turned to the girl beside him.

She had her head lowered, tightly holding the sheathed knife in her hand.

'Why……'

Baijie sighed in his heart.

Forget it, the most important thing now is to let the protagonist build up confidence and get rid of the "avoiding problems", "war-weariness" and "negative" attitude in the early stage of the plot. She must cheer up and build up a strong fighting spirit.

"Father's legacy is very important to her. Besides, these two precious swords can't be given away casually..."

Bai Jie made up his mind. He cleared his throat and said to Ye Ming, "Lord Ye Ming, I think you should participate in this duel."

Instead of lowering his voice, he raised it and spoke loudly, "Whether it's a win or a loss! It should be decided in an upright manner. Instead of hesitating, it's better to make a decision soon!"

Bai Jie thought to himself that as long as he had his own operation, it would not be difficult to help her win this victory.
