I Am an Emperor in a World of Mixed Anime

Akira Higashino smiled politely but did not answer.

Takeda Saegusa didn't press the matter further. She just sighed with some melancholy and decided to pack her bags, quit being a psychic, and go home to farm.

P.S.: I tried my best, but I'm really not good at writing battle scenes. I flipped through encyclopedias, watched videos, looked at characters, checked skills, character relationships, and backgrounds. I went back and forth and got stuck for a long time before I finally finished these two chapters. I'm exhausted. I'll rest for a while and then continue writing.

Chapter Fifty-Three: I Don't Understand

[As emperor, please acquire your own subjects as soon as possible. For every 1000 subjects, you will receive +1 more chances to be granted a title by a subordinate deity (in progress: 830/1000)]

It will probably take another two days to meet the standard for bestowing a title upon a subordinate deity.

At night, Higashino Akira returned home, took a shower, and threw himself onto the bed to rest.

I feel physically energetic, but mentally exhausted.

I've received way too much information these past two days.

Fortunately, the crisis on Jianzi's side was successfully resolved. Once we've accumulated enough opportunities for a royal decree, we'll give her a little fox to protect her on a daily basis. Otherwise, I'm really afraid that one day she'll inexplicably provoke a big one and be brought home by him.

At midnight, Toyokawa Shoko transformed back into human form on the bed. She shifted her buttocks forward slightly with a slightly unnatural expression before turning around and gently tapping the bad guy's chest.

Higashino Akira opened his eyes, looked at the expectant gaze of the girl in his arms, and slowly shook his head.

"Don't rush, your matter will have to wait a while. I just finished dealing with Jianzi's matter these past two days."

As I said before, Higashino Akira doesn't fight unprepared battles. If you're going to challenge someone, you have to have the right attitude. He used a drone with chemical explosives as a backup plan in the mountains before. Although he didn't end up using it, who can guarantee that things will go smoothly every time?

A backup plan must be prepared in advance; the difference between having a sword but not using it and having no sword to use is too great.

Even a single sword cannot be suitable for every situation. If the root of Xiangzi's problem really lies in that zoo in the urban area that is still operating normally, then we must do more preliminary intelligence gathering work in advance, design a contingency plan that is reliable enough even in the worst-case scenario, and then consider taking action.

After all, compared to a mountain god that is merely deadly, the existence that turns people into cats is clearly much more sinister.

When the basic stats are not significantly different, stats really can't beat mechanics, especially when there is a lack of information. The mechanics' first-time kill was fully demonstrated during the day today.

The mountain god, who could cripple a courtesan in one move, was taken down by a single combo when he was careless, and he couldn't even muster a decent counterattack afterward.

Hearing this, Toyokawa Shoko felt a little disappointed, but she didn't urge him. After all, she knew that she was in a complicated situation, and since she had been a cat for so long, a little longer wouldn't make a difference.

More than that, she was curious about what this bad guy meant by what happened to Jianzi. He had been out all night and hadn't come back. What had happened in between?

When Xiangzi kept asking him questions, Dongye Ming wasn't in a hurry to go to sleep. He slowly told her about what had happened in the past two days, answering one or two of her questions from time to time.

The harmonious atmosphere between the two was broken by a sudden cell phone notification sound.

Toyokawa Shoko reached out from the bed and pulled out her phone. She glanced at it and saw that Xiao Mu had forwarded her an encrypted file that could only be opened once in the chat app.

Higashino patted Shoko, gesturing for her to turn around, her face slightly flushed. He then leaned in and hugged her, resting his chin on the top of her head as they looked at the phone screen together.

Since meeting Nagasaki Motoyo, who seemed a bit abstract but was actually quite abnormal, he gained a new understanding of the extraordinary nature of Shoko's group of friends.

If it were just a casual watch, I might actually find it interesting.

Following the instructions, Toyokawa Shoko opened the encrypted folder, and a bunch of photos suddenly popped up inside. At first glance, the scene looked somewhat familiar to Higashino Akira.

Isn't this my dorm room?

When Xiangzi clicked on a picture and zoomed in, he couldn't hold back any longer.

"No, why did she only blur her own face and not mine?"

Toyokawa Shoko turned around and gave him a silent, wistful look.

Why do you think so?

As the photo continued to scroll down, Akira Higashino finally saw the part of his face that Motoyo Nagasaki had blurred out, and he became even more unhappy.

"What's the point of censoring this? I don't need to feel inferior."

cheeky!

The girl secretly complained to herself.

Nagasaki Motoyo even took a picture of Shoko's panties and put them in the folder, but the panties, which were originally quite new, now look inexplicably wrinkled.

Toyokawa Shoko glanced at it twice, then couldn't bear to look any longer. She quickly closed the photo folder, exited the folder, and clicked delete.

I feel like I'm going to explode if I look at it again!

It felt as if a cybernetic ghost would crawl out of the phone screen and carve out a Peach Blossom Spring story from her body.

Xiangzi: 'Xiao Mu, never associate too closely with Su Shi again.'

Xiangzi: 'By the way, don't get too close, especially not hugging or sleeping in the same bed.'

Xiangzi: 'If she asks you to contact me or send me anything again, don't help her anymore.'

Fearing that the usually dull-witted Xiao Mu might unknowingly fall into the band's lesbian trap, Toyokawa Shoko quickly reminded her. Although somewhat puzzled, Ruoye Mu still agreed to Shoko's request.

After a brief chat, the conversation ended abruptly. Toyokawa Shoko told Komu to get some rest and then switched to chatting with someone else.

I unblocked and unblocked the person I had previously blocked, and sent them a message.

Xiangzi: "Give me back my panties."

Su Shi: 'It wasn't me, I didn't take it!'

Xiangzi: 'It's that blue and white striped one.'

Su Shi: 'Isn't it a blue lace patterned one?'

Nagasaki Motoyo's expression suddenly turned serious. How dare someone steal Sho's panties! That's outrageous!

She only took one of the confiscated items to save Xiao Xiang!

How could anyone do such a terrible thing!

Upon seeing her almost instant reply, Toyokawa Shoko fell silent for a moment before continuing to type and send the message.

Xiangzi: '...'

Xiangzi: "Give it back to me."

Now that things have come to this, there's nothing more to say about the past. Toyokawa Shoko just wants to get back her panties; otherwise, it would feel awkward to leave them with Suze.

As for the rest, let her do whatever she wants. Even if you stop her from doing something foolish, she'll still act impulsively in other ways.

Tired, destroy it.

Su Shi: 'I don't understand what Xiao Xiang is saying.'

Toyokawa Shoko: '?'

A red exclamation mark pops up, indicating that you are not the other person's friend and that you should add them as a friend before chatting.

Those who are good at blocking others will eventually be blocked themselves.

Toyokawa Shoko's eyes widened immediately, her fair face gradually turned red, and her whole body seemed to flush. She even trembled slightly.

Seeing this, Higashino Akira laughed unkindly, only to be glared at angrily by Xiangzi, who turned around in embarrassment and anger.

There were a few more vibrations. This time it was Higashino Akira's phone. He picked it up and glanced at it. It was a message from Nagasaki Motoyo, asking him to meet up tomorrow, saying that she had something important to discuss with him in person.

P.S.: 28 chapters still owed.

Chapter 54 Forced Pop-up

Dream, Miyamizu Shrine.

Higashino Akira opened his eyes and couldn't help but smile as he thought of Shoko's disgusted yet flushed face, along with her somewhat embarrassed and indignant yet hesitant expression, before he fell asleep.

So cute!

I sat up from under the covers. This time, no notebook fell out of my clothes. The notebook was placed next to my pillow. I opened the first page and looked back from where I had left off. Sure enough, there was new content.

"The second body swap was so tiring. I got scolded by my supervisor. Why should a junior high school student like me do the work of a college graduate? Damn it, I'm so ashamed of you. If I had known, I would have just asked for a day off. I really want to go home."

"Yay! I passed the exam!"

"People in Tokyo are so mean! They actually mocked me for being from the countryside. Even though Chiba is considered a country bumpkin in Tokyo's eyes, how annoying!"

"Hmm! The notebook did reply. Hello Xiaoming, I shared with my mom how I officially became acquainted with Xiaoming, and my mom gave me a serious lecture, saying I should respectfully call him Master Dongye. I'm not happy, Dongye is bad."

"I really want to experience what it's like to live the daily life of Higashino-sama, who is a god."

What kind?

Akira Higashino reflected, "Maybe I spend my nights sleeping with Japanese girls and my days beating up brats?"

"In second year, we were assigned to different classes, and I met my crush! What an adorable girl! She's so gentle, and like me, she came from the countryside. Her family also runs a shrine. Amaneme-san, I love her! I wish I were a boy, sob..."

"I'm so happy to have become friends with Amamiya-kun."

"So many people come to confess their love to Amatsume-san, how annoying! Kamisama, please protect Amatsume-san from falling in love, at least not for the next twenty years after I die!"

"Waaah... I failed. That bastard named Higashino actually won Amatsume-san's heart despite my protection, and even called her by her name. I've never even called Amatsume-san that before."

"Heartbroken, I've sealed my heart away from love, and will never fall in love again!"

"Preparing for college entrance exams!"

"How can the Japanese be so wicked! University is so expensive, and all the scholarships are loans. Even students at prestigious universities have to sell their bodies to pay off their debts! And it's practically impossible to get into university without spending a lot of money on cram schools! Please help me, Kamisama, I will love you for the rest of my life."

After reading the girl's ramblings written over the past two years, Akira Higashino's smile gradually faded.

He roughly understood why he had channeled his destiny along the predestined connection that existed before his birth and was related to his origins, but ultimately projected his consciousness onto Miyamizu Futaba of this era.

The Amamiya-kun from Futaba Miyamizu's novel might actually be his mother, whom he has never met in this life. And what about Higashino? Did they meet so long ago?

Finally, he had made some progress. Higashino Akira roughly estimated the current era, thought about the major events that had occurred during this period, and after much deliberation, he left a World Cup betting result in his notebook for Futaba as a token of his gratitude.

Footsteps approached from outside the door, and Miyamizu Ichiyo's voice began to call out.

Higashino Akira thought for a moment, picked up his pen, and continued writing, still wanting to give it a try.

Old Deng could still become a winner in life and live a good life even without being with Amamiya, while Amamiya might have avoided dying young if she hadn't been with him, thus preventing the gods of the Kashiihime Shrine from perishing as a result.

If we consider Old Deng's gratitude for giving birth to the child as simply accepting his inheritance and promising to care for him until he grows up, then there is no further connection between them.

The kindness the woman had shown him that day was immeasurable, and Higashino Akira simply could not bear to let her walk down this path to her doom.
