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

Chapter 51: Tenjin Sakura Festival
"It shouldn't be my illusion. I feel like the spiritual energy I lost earlier has recovered quite quickly..."

Baijie was running while thinking in his heart. Originally, he had exhausted his spiritual power in the battle with the insect monster "Zhijiao".

However, after just a short rest, except for the loss of spiritual power, his physical strength, which had originally fallen to the bottom, also quickly recovered.

"If nothing unexpected happens, it should be the effect of the mermaid flesh."

Bai Jie thought about the benefits brought by the legendary mermaid meat.

Real mermaid meat is comparable to the elixir of immortality, and it provides people with powerful life energy. Even if injured, they will heal quickly and become immortal.

The mermaid meat that Yuki Yashahime provided to Baijie was not that magical, but it should also be able to generate huge life energy. It seems that his spiritual power recovered quickly and his physical fitness was strengthened because of the benefits of swallowing the mermaid meat.

He was running at the fastest speed in the forest, chasing the figure of Jiujiutsu Ikki. Because of his fast speed, he was like an arrow shooting out.

"Mr. Baijie...put me down now!"

Ayaka, who was held in Baijie's arms, struggled slightly, but could not break free.

"Ms. Ayaka, please don't move and grit your teeth."

He leaped up, landed on a tree, and hid in its shade. Amidst Ayaka's screams, he hopped from tree to tree.

Then, Baijie's body flew lightly in the air, flew over a small hill, and landed as lightly as a feather.

The place where he landed just happened to block Jiujiutu Ikki and the night-walking spies he led.

"……you?"

Jiujiutsu Ikki raised his brows, revealing an expression that was half surprised and half displeased.

"Excuse me, Ikki-sama."

Baijie had already put Ayaka down and gently pushed her back.

"Lady Ayaka seems to have something important to tell you. I brought her here—"

"No, it's obviously..."

Halfway through her words, Ayaka, who was pushed to the front, suddenly shut her mouth. Only then did she notice that her brother Ikki was looking at her.

She opened her mouth slightly, wanting to say something, but because she was staring at the other person, she shrank back.

"What do you want from me, Ayaka..."

Jiujiutsu Ichiki uttered cold words.

"I."

Ayaka bit her lips hard, trying to catch her breath.

"Brother...I—"

"No need to say anything if it's okay."

Kujiutsu Ichiki looked away.

"I'm not interested in listening to your nonsense."

At this moment, her body trembled violently and then became stiff.

"Y-really?"

Ayaka lowered her head, and suddenly, as if she had made up her mind, she took a deep breath, a deep breath - she placed her hands on her chest and clenched them tightly.

"Even if Big Brother says so, I still want to ask——"

She uttered the sound.

"How are you doing?"

"..."

Jiujiutsu Ichigui had a cold face, and after a moment, he turned in the other direction.

"good."

He pretended to be calm, but his expression was a little stiff.

"That, that's good."

Ayaka hunched her shoulders nervously.

"Also...is sister-in-law doing well? I remember those two children should be four years old, right?"

She asked cautiously, "I never had the chance to see them. The last time I saw them, my eldest brother's children were still two little babies."

Ayaka continued in a low voice, a little timidly, "Sister-in-law's health has always been poor. I heard that she caught a cold after giving birth. She should be fine now."

"She's okay."

Kukutsu Ichiki spoke as if forcing the voice out.

"Also, Mei and Tsubaki are fine, so you don't have to worry."

Mei and Tsubaki are the two daughters of a ghost, and Ayaka only saw them once when they were just born.

Finally, the man forced his stiff facial muscles to move and slowly said, "Ayaka."

"Yes."

Ayaka nodded a little nervously.

After a moment of silence, Yigui finally spoke slowly: "Ye Ming, I'll leave it to you to take care of."

Then he stopped talking, his face became expressionless again, and he led his men away.

'This man is quite a clumsy fellow.'

Baijie was half emotional and half helpless.

He had finally created an opportunity for the brother and sister to have a good conversation, but in the end, he only said these few words to his sister.

At the same time, Ayaka silently watched her brother leave until the group gradually disappeared.

Finally, she withdrew her gaze, turned around, and bowed deeply and solemnly.

"Thank you, Lord Baijie."

"No, I haven't done anything worth mentioning."

Baijie shook his head. "Besides, Miss Ayaka was brought here by me half-forced."

"Do not."

Ayaka interrupted him.

"That kind of thing isn't important anymore... I really want to talk to you, big brother. I have to thank you."

She held her chest, looking very embarrassed, and lowered her eyes.

"I... I always thought that my elder brother had abandoned me a long time ago. Now, I know that this is not the case..."

Ayaka lowered her head somewhat embarrassedly. She whispered in a barely audible voice, "Perhaps, Big Brother...he has some difficulties."

Being sensitive by nature, she vaguely sensed something - but Ayaka said nothing.

"It's getting late, we should go back quickly."

Having said that, she leisurely put her hands behind her back and walked towards her destination.

"But... Lord Baijie, I am very grateful for what you did today, but let's be clear, Ayaka, I will not agree with that matter."

ha? What are you talking about?
Bai Jie was completely confused after hearing this.

Ayaka didn't explain. She hummed a song through her nose and walked forward quickly.

……

"What a boring meeting."

Kurohimeyama Kuzuka felt a surge of anger as she thought back to the routine meeting that had wasted her life.

Well, thanks to this meeting, she also knew nothing about the specific aspects of the duel that took place in Yuanfa Temple.

Damn it!

The Kurohimeyama clan's meeting was held in a completely sealed venue. Multiple barriers were set up inside and outside the venue—to prevent eavesdropping by outsiders or leaking information from insiders. Shikigami were not allowed there, and the meeting was presided over by the stern grandmother.

If I use subtle movements, I'll be noticed by my grandmother, who has a keen sense of perception.

"...Fortunately, I don't have to see that old woman's ugly face."

Ge Hua sneered.

The old woman was naturally referring to her biological mother, the head of the Kurohimeyama family. Because of her status, she had to go to Kyoto on a regular basis every year, similar to the Edo Shogunate's sankinkotai, a system called "guarding in the capital."

This was also designed by the people in the palace of Kyoto, and is a method specifically used to control the famous families of exorcists in various places.

The heads of famous families from all over the country need to go to Kyoto regularly to carry out tasks according to orders, including repairing the capital's barriers, sorting out the earth veins, and holding various ceremonies... Of course, they also need to take this opportunity to strengthen relations with the royal family and the nobles.

When she was locked in the conference room for a closed-door meeting, she was extremely anxious and wanted to break the barrier and rush out immediately.

However, at the venue, the second young lady still managed to endure it perfectly.

She adjusted her breathing and calmed herself throughout the meeting, and persevered until the end.

Afterwards, after leaving the venue, Kuzuka used the Shikigami's "recording" technique to collect and record information, and learned the following story in bits and pieces.

"Kyuuzu Ikki... the guardian of Kyoto?"

Ge Hua frowned her beautiful eyebrows.

——That man is the head of the Kagerome Agency. If we attack him directly, we will inevitably offend the imperial court.

Fortunately, he seemed to have used some means to solve the problem satisfactorily.

He is worthy of being the man she has chosen. It seems that he used a strategy to help Yue Jialuo Yeming defeat Jiujiutun Guiyi and keep her throne as the head of the family.

"But what's with that little girl... a princess carry... I've never tried that before..."

hateful.

To say that there are no complaints is of course not the case.

Ge Hua was a bystander throughout the entire journey and knew a lot of details, including many moments that made her extremely angry.

However, Yue Jialuo Yeming and that little girl are still useful now, so let’s not make things difficult for them.

Just as she was thinking, cold raindrops fell from the sky.

Only then did Ge Hua notice that it was raining and stretched out her hand with her palm facing upwards.

“It’s really raining.”

She looked up and saw a woman holding an umbrella.

"……It is you."

That was his elder sister Xiao Hagi, who was standing alone in the rain with a Tang umbrella.

At this moment, Ge Hua seemed to see an enemy, and her bright red lips twisted like a corroded flower.

"Oh my~~ Isn't this my dear sister... Is there something you want to talk to me about?"

She pretended to be friendly, but in fact her nerves were tense and she was always on guard.

After all, Kurohimeyama Kohagi was holding a long sword with a sheath in his right hand, and it was a new sword that he had never seen before.

Every time Ge Hua saw this sinister woman take out a new knife, she would feel uncomfortable on her neck. She was now subconsciously stroking her neck with her left hand.

There was no way. Just two years ago, Ge Hua had been chopped once, no, twice... The damp woman was so cruel.

Also, the feeling of having your head chopped off is really uncomfortable.

"Are you here to kill me again..."

No, she probably hasn't found a way to break her "immortality". No matter how powerful her new sword is, this woman won't rush to take action until she finds a way to completely destroy herself or avoids the effects of the plague curse she spreads.

——So, what is this woman’s intention in coming to see me?
"That's right, Kuzuka."

Xiao Hagi answered without hesitation: "I have something to discuss with you?"

——Don’t keep me in suspense, what exactly do you want to say?
"The Tenjin Sakura Festival in Dewa Province is about to begin. I hope I can discuss this with you."

Hearing this, Ge Hua blinked in confusion.

The only thought in her mind was, "Is the Wet Woman thinking of something terrible again?"
