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

Chapter 61 Pampering
The "Phantom Scale Snake Armor" is a soft armor-type protective gear made using the scales and bones of the giant snake demon "Snake God" that was defeated somewhere in the Northeast.

After returning to the hotel, Baijie tried it on in his room and found that this soft armor was light and lightweight, and it felt like nothing when worn on the body. Moreover, the soft armor was made of snake demon scales, and its defensive power was also considerable.

"Even a Chunin's ninja sword can't pierce it."

He did some experiments and found that his sword could not damage the soft armor no matter whether he chopped, cut or stabbed it.

The Kurohimeyama clan is equipped with a Chunin-level sword, which is of good quality and has runes written on it with red ink refined from mercury and cinnabar.

The ninja sword also has the "sharpness technique" that can make the sword cut through iron like mud, as well as the "toughness technique" that maintains the stability of the steel sword and prevents metal cracks and crystal structure defects. As long as this kind of sword falls into the hands of someone who can use spiritual power, it will undoubtedly be a magical weapon.

"What a great item! The Second Miss has shown some extra grace this time. This light armor should be a C-rank weapon..."

He muttered to himself.

"Although it's not as powerful as the B+-rank Brahmaru, nor can it be compared to the two swords in Ye Ming's hands, even an exorcist from the main family might not be able to wear this C-rank light armor."

Weapons made of ordinary iron in this world have natural defects for exorcists who fight demons. For example, the most common one is that it is difficult to transmit spiritual power.

Iron and ordinary metals not only have difficulty conducting spiritual power, but sometimes also hinder the conduction of spiritual power, weakening its power.

Because the nature of spiritual power is that it can only be transmitted within organic matter, it has limited effect on inorganic matter.

The seven-section spear that Baijie obtained was made of a shrine's century-old sacred wood, which naturally possessed a powerful spiritual power transmission effect. The spear head was also mixed with a trace amount of crimson metal, which enabled it to injure demons.

In fact, the swords used by most exorcists are not made of ordinary iron. Their weapons, without exception, are mixed with rare metals such as refined gold, mithril, mountain copper, cold iron, crimson metal, and sky crystal jade.

Because the output of these rare metals is low and the material properties are different, it would be a waste to use them directly to create complete weapons.

The most suitable solution is to combine it with ordinary iron and forge it into various alloy materials according to different formula ratios.

The same goes for protective gear such as armor. Metal can only reduce the efficiency of spiritual power transmission, but cannot completely isolate it or resist physical attacks.

For an exorcist, wearing heavy armor made of ordinary iron will only weaken his spiritual power, making his movements slow. His defense will be weakened due to the effect of the ordinary iron armor. It is better not to wear armor, use spiritual power to strengthen the body, or open a barrier for defense.

"Weapons like swords are slightly better, but crafting armor that can protect against exorcists is much more difficult..."

He was quite satisfied with this armor, but he had many complaints about another piece of equipment given to him by the second lady Ge Hua.

"It's just a collar. I feel like it would be troublesome if someone saw me when I went out."

Baijie tried to see if he could pick it off secretly.

However, he soon discovered that this thing had been cast under some kind of spell, and it was impossible to take it off.

"Unless you can remove the head, you can't remove the collar..."

Suddenly, the girl's voice came into his mind.

"Miss Ge, Miss Gehua?"

Bai Jie was shocked.

"This is a built-in function of the collar, which allows for 'telepathy' connection."

The girl's lazy voice sounded in his consciousness.

"I designed this collar with multiple functions, and this is just one of them... It's clearly a 'gift' from your master, yet you dare to take it off? You really don't know what's good for you..."

Bai Jie was extremely embarrassed, but then he thought again and felt a little confused.

"But, Miss Gehua, how did you know I wanted to take off my collar?"

"..."

This time it was Ge Hua who fell silent. She didn't expect that her slip of the tongue would be discovered by Bai Jie.

"You should be resting at Lord Sufang's place now... It's quite a distance from here."

Baijie asked suspiciously, "Did you send a shikigami to monitor me? Or is this collar..."

"I just sent an invisible Shikigami to check on you?"

Kuzuka smirked.

"Never mind, let's talk about this collar first. Reach behind your neck. There's something there. You can try to adjust it."

Baijie followed her instructions and touched the collar behind his neck. The next second, the collar disappeared from his neck.

"Invisibility spell?"

He was surprised.

"That's right, and it can also cover up that ugly curse mark on the back of your neck."

Gehua giggled softly, and Baijie could even imagine her covering her mouth with her sleeve.

"Also, this level of extremely advanced invisibility is fixed on the magic tool, so you can also use this technique to hide yourself... Although it can't achieve the 'silent killing' of the Shadow Rokumoku mechanism, which can eliminate one's own existence, it will take a while for the average level of the magician to perceive it."

Is it so powerful?
Suddenly, Baijie thought of Renjo Senjuro. He whispered, "Who is the president of the Renjo Chamber of Commerce? This light armor and the collar...even the craftsmen at the Nou Artisan Institute can't make them to this level, right?"

"Because those self-righteous fools look down on Western alchemy and the new technologies from overseas, and they only cling to the old ways."

While sneering at the clan's craftsmen, Ge Hua continued to use telepathy to supplement the function of the collar.

"You don't need to make any sound. Try talking to me through telepathy. Express your thoughts through your heart, and you will be able to turn your thoughts into words."

"I see."

Baijie nodded.

"Telepathy" is an extremely high-level spiritual art. Originally, with his limited level of magic, it would be difficult for him to learn it. "Um... can you hear this sentence?"

"Don't say meaningless nonsense when you talk. Every word you say consumes your own spiritual energy."

'clear. '

"As for the Renjo Senjuro you mentioned, that guy is just an old wretch. Although he's the head of the Renjo Chamber of Commerce, he has no children, wives, or daughters... He does have quite a few women, but they're probably just for fun. This shrewd businessman wouldn't confide in anyone."

After she finished speaking, she added one more sentence.

"But, strangely enough, he comes here every year to sweep the grave and pay homage to a woman who has been dead for many years."

'who? ! ’

Baijie's tone was very excited.

"He should be the former Grand Priest of the Kamizakura headquarters, right?"

Ge Hua asked in confusion: "Why are you so concerned about this old man Xian Julang?"

Baijie didn't answer, he fell into deep thought.

In the original game, Hasjo Senjuro also appeared, but he was assassinated during the prologue of the game, "The Great Purification of Tenjin Sakura Mahouka."

His assassination was also covered up by someone and turned into a missing person case.

Renjo Senjuro's true identity is extraordinary. In addition to being the royal merchant, he is also the spy of a royal noble among the people.

It was also because of his death that a series of subsequent problems were triggered.

"Furthermore, according to the game's settings, one of the conditions for breaking the seal of the evil spirit is to steal a secret treasure that has been treasured for generations by the Hasjo family... If Hasjo Senjuro is not killed or the enemy does not seize this item, it will be difficult to release the Yellow Spring Evil Spirit."

Baijie muttered quietly in his heart.

"Then the benefits of saving lives are quite significant."

After careful consideration, he decided to take this opportunity to ask Ge Hua for help.

"Ms. Katsukana, regarding Renjo Senjuro, he will be assassinated soon."

'What? How do you know this?'

"Miss Katsukana, if our Kurohimeyama family prevents the assassination of Hasjo Senjuro, perhaps the Hasjo Trading Company will owe us a big favor."

Baijie said lightly.

'What nonsense are you talking about?'

Ge Hua reacted quite quickly.

"No, even if that old man is killed, what does it have to do with our Kurohimeyama family? A man like him, after so many years of business career, has already made countless enemies. Assassination is completely commonplace for him."

Although she said this, she did not doubt Baijie's judgment.

The same thing had happened to her in the past. Bai Jie would always make predictions in advance with extraordinary "insight" and show a forward-looking view of the situation, and he would be able to prove that he was correct afterwards.

Since Baijie said that "Senjuro will be assassinated", there must be a reason for this matter, and she believed him from the bottom of her heart.

However, what Ge Hua hated most was working for outsiders. She didn't care whether the head of the Lianzhang Chamber of Commerce was dead or alive.

"Having said that, after Senjuro's death, there will definitely be changes in the Renjo Trading Company, right?"

Baijie asked: "The Kurohimeyama family's business of medicinal material processing should be cooperating with the Lianzhang Chamber of Commerce, right?"

He was asking about the medicinal materials business led by Ge Hua, which was also the "money supply" of her faction. To distribute medicinal materials to surrounding areas and process them into medicines, they also needed receiving and shipping channels. The Kurohime family did not have such channels themselves, so they must have allies at the business level.

"You are quite clever to have thought of this."

Ge Hua sneered.

"If the old man dies, it will have some impact on my business... However, I am a non-interventionist. The life and death of others are not important to me, and I will not bother to help an outsider."

"Then let me come forward."

Baijie laughed.

"Miss Katsura, just sit back and enjoy the fruits of your labor. Leave the dirty work to me, your servant. I will do it perfectly. After saving Renjo Senjuro, I will attribute it to the brilliant strategy of my wise and powerful master. On the other hand, if I cause any trouble, you can put the blame on me. You don't have to worry about these things at all."

"you."

The smile on Ge Hua's face disappeared, and she had to take a deep breath to suppress all the complicated emotions.

She thought, that's not the case...

Don't you understand? It's such a trivial matter. All you have to do is say, "Please help me"—yes, as long as it's something that benefits you personally. Then I won't ask why or why, I'll help you, because it's my job.

However, you insist on turning the matter into a transaction of interests, into a relationship between a loyal servant and his master. How can I make up my mind then?
Ge Hua bit her lips tightly.

Finally, she decided to compromise and comply with his request.

"I understand, servant, just work hard~~ Let me make it clear, servant, if you cause any trouble, I will let you go."

There was no way she could refuse him.

She dotes on her lover from the bottom of her heart.
