Tentacle Monster Conquest Manual

"Seven-Tails, you must have someone you like, right?"

"Huh? Eh?"

What did he mean by asking that?

The girl panicked. Could it be... a confession of love?!

He... he doesn't like me, does he?

Chapter 214 You will definitely die at the hands of a woman!

"You must have a boyfriend, right?"

Although Mu Xiaoxiao hadn't read many books, it didn't mean he didn't know the intricacies of the genre. For example, the girl next to him exuded a seductive aura and had an exaggeratedly enviable figure, seemingly attracting men at every moment.

Mu Xiaoxiao didn't believe that this kind of girl wasn't the female lead in the story, which is why he asked this question.

"The person I like... um, I have someone I like, who is also a member of the track and field team," Nanao Akane said softly, then nervously glanced at Mu Xiaoxiao a few times, thinking about how to tactfully reject him if he really confessed.

He must be very sad to admit that he has someone he likes.

However, Nanao Akane didn't see any sadness or distress on Mu Xiaoxiao's face. Instead, she saw a rather subtle and strange expression, with a strange look in her eyes, a mixture of curiosity, sympathy, warmth, and a hint of exaggerated facial expressions... Nanao Akane was bewildered. What kind of expression was that?!

"Are you... are you making fun of me? Is this funny?" Akane Nanao stomped on his shoe angrily, though not hard.

"Oh, silly child, that's just my tender gaze," Mu Xiaoxiao made a Doraemon-style tender emoji and patted Nana Akane's shoulder. "It's okay, everything will be alright."

"what?"

"...It's nothing, but Seven Tails, your situation isn't good. You need to be more careful. Don't eat food from strangers or go with strangers," Mu Xiaoxiao said earnestly like an old father. A lewd and sexy body, and someone you like—isn't this the treatment I, the female lead, get?

Wait a minute, does that mean Anri and the others might also be...? Hmm, does that mean I should be careful too?

Looking at it this way, even with my factor evolution, it doesn't seem very safe.

Nanao Akane didn't understand what Mu Xiaoxiao was talking about at all. When she found him lost in thought again, the girl sullenly ate her bento. She had thought she was going to introduce the boy she liked, but Mu Xiaoxiao didn't care at all and didn't even ask.

It's making me waste my time here, like an idiot.

"What about you? Mu Jun, do you have a girlfriend?" Nana Akane forced a conversation.

"Why would you ask such a question?" Mu Xiaoxiao put down her chopsticks in surprise, shaking the bento box in her hand and the exquisite dishes inside. "This is a bento box made especially for me by a beautiful girl, don't you think?"

This bento box is exquisite and plentiful. It looks delicious and smells amazing. It was made with fresh ingredients in the morning, not leftovers. Generally speaking, bento boxes are simple dishes made with leftovers, using whatever is convenient, hence the name "bento".

But Mu Xiaoxiao's... Si Chengxingli knew that her man didn't like eating leftovers, so she specially used fresh ingredients to make it. Even Nanao Akane could tell that she had put a lot of thought into it.

"But that girl isn't..." Akane Nanao asked, bewildered. "She's your girlfriend? I thought Ruomu or Yotsuya were your girlfriends."

"Jianzi is also my girlfriend."

He delivered a powerful speech in a calm tone.

“…Huh?” Akane Nanao was indeed shocked, her mouth agape in disbelief.

"Why are you so surprised? Isn't it normal for someone as outstanding as me to be popular?" Mu Xiaoxiao shamelessly boasted. "Besides, there are plenty of rumors about me at school. I don't believe you haven't heard them."

"You said it yourself, it's just gossip..."

Akane Nanao looked at him with a complicated expression. "Many students have said that you have ambiguous relationships with several girls in different classes. I didn't expect it to be true. They... are all your girlfriends?"

"Yes."

"I have a transfer student in my class named Matsubara Touka, is she one too?"

"……Yes."

Akane's expression shifted for a few seconds before she finally looked away, poking at her rice with her chopsticks. "Mu-kun. You really are a womanizer."

“This isn’t the first time I’ve heard people say this,” Mu Xiaoxiao said with a touch of melancholy. “Actually, I didn’t have any intention of having a harem at first, but I don’t know why, it gradually developed like this. Those girls appeared in my life for various reasons, and I couldn’t just abandon them, so we ended up together.”

After speaking, she suddenly paused and looked at Nanao Akane strangely, as if she were just like herself now.

Qiwei didn't notice Mu Xiaoxiao's subtle gaze. An incredulous look flashed across her fair and delicate face. "Really? Won't they be jealous? Can they accept something like this?"

"They're definitely jealous, but even if they are, they're unwilling to let me go, so they just acquiesce. But now our relationship is actually getting better and better—"

Akane Nanao: "..."

This guy is just showing off, isn't he?

That despicable playboy! But with such a unique and outstanding charm, it's not surprising that those girls can't bear to let go. Nana Akane herself heard many girls in her class whispering about Mu Xiaoxiao, saying that they would be willing to sleep with him for one night, no matter what.

Those bold and shameful remarks are truly embarrassing; even now, thinking back on them makes my face flush. Those girls were just too daring.

But don't tell him that, otherwise he'll be so smug.

"Although these are all your private matters and have nothing to do with me, Mu Jun, you'd better restrain yourself. No matter how popular you are, this kind of recklessness can lead to tragedy. I don't want to see you stabbed to death by a girl at school one day."

Given his current appeal to girls, if he were to have uncontrollable affairs with the girls at school, it could very well escalate into that kind of situation.

The arguments are just minor incidents now.

"If that day ever comes, it would be nice. Dying in a girl's arms is a better ending than dying at the hands of those... guys," Mu Xiaoxiao said with a light smile. "If it happens, I will gladly accept it."

Huh? Could this be considered a flag?

"You're hopeless—" Akane glared at him fiercely, "You'll definitely die at the hands of a woman someday."

"Seven-Tails, why are you so concerned about me?"

"I just thought we got along well and I'm a good friend, that's why I gave you this advice, okay? Ugh, I don't care anymore," the girl suddenly stood up from the bench. "Mu-kun, do you want to go to the track and field club after class? You should have time, right?"

“No, I don’t have time. I need to spend time with other girls,” Mu Xiaoxiao shook her head and refused. “As you can see, I have quite a few girls around me, and I spend most of my time with them, so… I’m sorry, I’ll let you know when I have time.”

"..."

Reluctantly bidding farewell to Mu Xiaoxiao, Qiwei Qian slumped back onto the bench after he left, still gazing in the direction he had gone, and sighed softly, "Spending time with his girlfriend? I can't figure out if he's a womanizer or devoted. Mu Xiaoxiao... what kind of person is he anyway?"

The more you get to know him, the more mysteries surround him.

Unbeknownst to Akane, like Anri, Wakamo, and Chizuka, she was also gradually drawing closer to Mu Xiaoxiao out of curiosity, wanting to uncover his secrets. Little did she know, this was the beginning of her downfall—

Chapter 215 Anri's Reward

“I thought you would go to find that girl, or be with Jianzi,” Si Chengxingli said. With her backpack slung over her shoulder, she changed her shoes and came out of the building. She happened to see Mu Xiaoxiao, who had been waiting against the wall for a long time. The silver-haired beauty’s eyes lit up and she rushed over with a big smile and hugged his arm.

"I spent time with Jianzi yesterday, and I haven't had much time to spend with you since I just got back. As for that Nanao Akane... I don't have that kind of relationship with her, and besides, she has someone she likes, okay?" Mu Xiaoxiao rubbed her arm against the girl's soft chest, feeling the beauty of her chest.

"Huh? Doesn't that look just like me? I used to have someone I liked too, and I still am..." Hearing Mu Xiaoxiao say this, Si Cheng Xingli felt a sense of déjà vu, as if she saw her own reflection. Xingli's silver hair brushed against Mu Xiaoxiao's face and neck, completely unconcerned that her lover was taking advantage of her chest. Instead, she deliberately thrust her breasts forward and pressed them down to make it easier for him to touch them.

"I can already see her fate."

"These are two different things, okay? Anri, you're exaggerating."

“No, no, no, Xiaoxiao, you haven’t realized your own charm yet,” Sicheng Xingli turned her head and looked around, “Just now, the moment I hugged you, I don’t know how many jealous eyes were shot at me… Just your looks and charm alone can drive women crazy, not to mention that you once saved me…”

“After such an experience, I think even the most rational and indifferent woman would be swayed by you and become unable to refuse you,” just like me now, completely captivated by you, Si Cheng Xingli smiled, “That Nanao Akane will definitely fall for you.”

"..."

This time, Mu Xiaoxiao didn't refute anymore. Recalling the perverted teacher Xingli had encountered before, and that terrifying hypnotic ability, he turned his face slightly and carefully examined Sicheng Xingli's stunning face, her fair and tender skin, her small and cute nose, and her purple eyes that were like pearls and gems, her big, bright eyes sparkling.

Upon closer inspection, he found her even more perfect and exquisite, with an alluring fragrance. His otherworldly face was flawless even to his discerning eye—oh, it's all my doing, then it's alright.

Even without her mysterious charm, she possessed top-tier allure, the epitome of a beautiful young woman—she was the very essence of the female protagonist. If she hadn't been saved back then, the consequences…

"Xiaoxiao, why are you looking at me like that?" Sicheng Xingli gently pushed him away, feigning annoyance.

“Xingli, I will protect you from now on,” Mu Xiaoxiao said solemnly. He didn’t know before, but now that he knows the identities of Sicheng Xingli and Liulichuan Chun, Mu Xiaoxiao will naturally be more vigilant. In addition, they are his women, so he will take responsibility no matter what.

"Why are you talking about this?" Si Cheng Xingli didn't understand why her man had suddenly become serious. But Xiao Xiao is just concerned about me, isn't he? This is his gentleness. The silver-haired girl hugged him even tighter, her sexy body pressed close together. "I know—of course I believe Xiao Xiao, but don't underestimate me. I'm different now than before, I've become much stronger."

Maybe I can help him in the future.

Mu Xiaoxiao held her waist. Of course, he could see the changes in Xingli. Her body was evolving every day. Although it wasn't as exaggerated as at the beginning, the changes were still there. He made up his mind to inject some more factors into Xingli tonight to see if it would accelerate her growth.

If possible, then we can use this method to help them improve in the future. Ouch... I feel sorry for my kidneys for three seconds here.

"Let's go home—"

"Wait, it's still early. Let's go for a walk on the street. There's something I want to buy," Si Cheng Xingli smiled mysteriously. Mu Xiaoxiao was already thinking about tonight's nightlife, and Xingli was no different.

The girl grabbed Mu Xiaoxiao's hand and ran out of the school, "Hurry up! I heard from Miss Ruifei that you were on a date with other women in Hokkaido, I want to go too!"

----------

They planned to go to Shibuya, but instead of taking the subway, they experienced the monorail. It wasn't much different from the subway; the monorail was still crowded with passengers, and Mu Xiaoxiao managed to squeeze in using her powerful core strength.

Intending to protect his girlfriend, Anri instead held her backpack in front of her to shield her chest, then used her shoulder to push through the crowded passengers and followed her lover to the door in the corner of the carriage.

After getting close to Mu Xiaoxiao, she moved her backpack aside, letting her chest press against his chest, and wrapped her arms around his waist, her eyes full of laughter. "Xiaoxiao, how about it? I'm not weak either, am I?"

"Amazing, amazing," they said, enjoying their own space in this small corner. Mu Xiaoxiao looked out the window at the city below. This Tokyo Monorail not only allowed them to enjoy the feeling of shuttling between the city's skyscrapers.

The ride was very different from the subway. The tracks were very undulating and the curves were sharp. It was like riding a roller coaster. For example, when the train was just going around a curve, the carriage tilted violently and all the passengers were squeezed together. Mu Xiaoxiao almost squeezed Xingli under her.

However, Sicheng Xingli didn't mind. Instead, she wrapped her arms around his neck and hugged him tightly.

"Xiaoxiao, is this your first time riding the Tokyo Monorail?"

“Yes,” Mu Xiaoxiao nodded, “It feels very interesting, unlike ordinary trams.”

"Really? I think he's pretty ordinary, and—" She cupped her lover's face, forcing him to face her, "You have such a charming and beautiful girlfriend right in front of you, yet you keep looking outside. Xiaoxiao, I'm angry~ Or is it that I'm not pretty?"

Seriously? You're even jealous of trams?

However, this kind of coquettishness made Sicheng Xingli even more adorable, and Mu Xiaoxiao suppressed a laugh.

"So beautiful, so very beautiful, Miss Anri is so charming I can't take my eyes off her... And not only is she beautiful, she smells so good too," Mu Xiaoxiao sniffed and asked curiously, "Why does she smell different from before?"

Did you find it?

Sicheng Xingli leaned closer. "I wore perfume, just a tiny bit. How is it? Doesn't it smell nice?"

"Mmm, it smells really good."

The silver-haired beauty had gentle eyes, glistening with an inexplicable moisture. Her nose was close to Mu Xiaoxiao's, and her breath sprayed onto Mu Xiaoxiao's face. Si Cheng Xingli's eyelashes trembled, and she licked her lips, making a seductive gesture.

"Not just perfume, I'm also wearing lipstick today... It smells different from usual, little one~ don't you want to taste my lips?"

"..."

“I’m so happy that Xiaoxiao accompanied me on my date today, so this is a reward for you,” Sicheng Xingli said seductively, licking her lips.

Before she could finish speaking, Mu Xiaoxiao sealed the girl's cherry lips with hers.

"Um……"
