On how PhDs become human evil

"I think you can kill a god without using divine magic."

"Absolutely. I've killed gods before, haven't I? Right, Kaori?"

Kaori Shirasaki nodded in agreement with Bai Jie's words, but Shizuku Yaegashi once again became curious: "Wait, wait, wait, how did Fafnir become a god of war? Judging from your tone, this isn't the first time you've killed a god of war?"

"Shizuku, do you remember the Tokyo bombing? That was the result of Fafnir fighting a god."

"Huh?"

"And when we went on our school trip, there were accidents on the beaches and in the Piazza de la Civic Auditorium in Naples, which was also caused by Fafnir."

This time, not only Yaegashi Shizuku, but also Nagumo Hajime was stunned. It was the first time they had ever heard of Bai Jie's "great achievements" in the original world.

"You're incredibly strong... By the way, did our original world also have gods?"

"Hmm, they're all gods who like to cause trouble." Bai Jie smiled. "Alright, let's stop here. I'm going back to my room to rest. You should all go back and rest early too. Tomorrow, Nan Yun and I will take you back to the capital."

Watching Bai Jie's figure walk up to the second floor, Nan Yunshi and the other two couldn't help but show uneasy expressions.

Sleep? But it's only a little past four in the afternoon.

----------------------

Walking up to the second floor of the hotel, Bai Jie returned to his room and locked the door. Leaning against the door, he suddenly spoke to the other rooms besides his own: "Come out. There's no need to hide. If you want to be invisible, at least make your presence disappear."

As soon as Bai Jie finished speaking, a ripple spread through the space. The space in front of Bai Jie was torn open like a canvas, and a person appeared in front of Bai Jie. With the appearance of this person, the atmosphere in the room froze instantly, becoming as if it had fallen into an ice cellar.

This doesn't mean the room temperature dropped, but rather the atmosphere.

"You're here..."

Section 259, Question 30: Am I, Bai Jie, the kind of person who would cheat on his wife?

A woman emerged from the space.

Her silver hair shimmered in the afterglow of the setting sun, her large, long blue eyes, and her appearance that seemed both like a young girl and a mature woman, all made her seem incredible and mysterious. All her features were in perfect positions, delicate and exquisite.

For a woman, she is considered tall, about 170 centimeters. Her skin is as smooth and delicate as porcelain, and her limbs are long and slender. Her breasts are of a just-right size in terms of overall balance.

She was dressed in a white formal suit of armor, resembling an off-the-shoulder dress that reached below her knees. Her hands, feet, and head were clad in metal armor, and metal swords hung from her waist. It looked every bit like a combat outfit, making her resemble a Valkyrie from Norse mythology.

The only pity is that her face is completely expressionless. Rather than saying she's expressionless, describing her as a Noh mask would be more accurate. Few would doubt that she is the most exquisite sculpture created by the famous artist in his lifetime.

This woman's beauty was like that of a work of art, devoid of any trace of human life.

"Click click click..."

The silver armor made a rustling sound. Just when Bai Jie thought the woman was about to make a move, she knelt down on both knees in front of him and said in a flat tone, "Noin, by order of my master, I will become Bai Jie's personal servant from today onwards. Please give me your orders, master."

"...Huh?"

Even with Bai Jie's sharp mind, he couldn't immediately grasp the situation.

He sensed the aura of a god and used that as an excuse to leave the group and return to his room. He originally thought that the god Eshid had finally had enough of him as an anomaly and was going to make a big fight with him. But what's going on now?

Servant? Female? Master?

"Eh... let me sort this out. You were sent by Eshid?"

"Yes."

"He sent you to be my maid?"

"Yes."

"Did he give any reason?"

"The original master said that in order to prevent you from going to the God Realm and fighting him, which would destroy the world, he planned to use a honey trap to bring the current 20,000 divine apostles of the God Realm under your command. In the words of the lower realm, we are your maids."

(That mad god is up to his old tricks again!)

Bai Jie now wished he could twist Eshid's head off to see what was inside, that he would come up with such a terrible idea as sending him a woman! He had his wife watching him all the time! If Chen saw what was happening through the dimensional observation device... he would die!

“Go back and tell that god that I don’t need any maids or anything, and tell him to wash his neck and wait for me to kill him.”

"But the passage to the God Realm has been closed by the original master, and our authority as apostles of the gods to travel to and from the God Realm has been revoked. We currently do not have the means to return to the God Realm."

They don't even support unconditional returns?!

"Wait, you just said 20,000... Where are they?"

"All the apostles are currently on standby in the sky, and have set up an invisibility barrier to avoid attracting attention."

Why does this tactic seem so familiar to Bai Jie? Twenty thousand girls are coming to seek refuge... Should he shout "Fuck you!"?

Taking a deep breath to calm himself down, Bai Jie said, "Anyway, I don't need maids or anything. You can go wherever you want, just don't bother me."

"Becoming Bai Jie's woman is a soul command issued by the original master. We cannot disobey the command. Master, please take off your clothes and perform the ritual of becoming your woman with us."

"Hey... that's not how you drive! And I'm a married man! Don't even think about me cheating on you!"

Section 260, Chapter 31: Who cheated on whom?

Faced with Bai Jie's reprimand, Nuoyin seemed to lose her hearing. She lunged forward and pounced on Bai Jie, her soft, boneless body instantly wrapping around him. Her hands were as nimble as snakes as she deftly began to unbutton Bai Jie's clothes.

(Holy crap! Force me? Don't I have any dignity?!)

Bai Jie felt that he had really underestimated the loyalty of this divine apostle to that soul command. It was probably a command that had to be completed "unless both body and soul are destroyed," and its degree of coercion should be equivalent to "self-compulsory proof."

"But I don't want to cheat, so let's skip the idea of ​​being forced!"

With his hands no longer bound, Bai Jie wrapped them around Noin's neck. With a slight effort, he snapped her neck. But before he could break free, Noin's body miraculously returned to a completely unharmed state, as if time had reversed.

"My body was created by the original master, and my heart is made of divine crystal that can provide an infinite supply of magic power, so theoretically this body is immortal. Master, please do not resist."

(It even has an infinite resurrection buff! Can I sue for copyright infringement?)

Despite inwardly cursing, Bai Jie had to admit that his situation was very bad. Although he could break free if he destroyed Noin's heart, he couldn't do so in his current position.

Is Chen going to be cuckolded today?

"Hmm? Former Master? Yes... I understand." Noin, who was taking off Bai Jie's pants, suddenly paused. After saying a few words, he looked at Bai Jie and said, "Master, the former Master sent a message saying that your wife Chen is currently active in another world. You don't need to worry about being caught in bed with someone else."

"Huh? Chen's in another world? No! This isn't about whether Chen catches me! How can a good man like me in this new world do something to betray his wife! Get off me right now!"

"...Judging that the master is not cooperating, based on the original master's advice, we will adopt the first suggestion: the human wave tactic."

As soon as Noin's emotionless voice fell, Bai Jie felt a very obvious spatial fluctuation. Then, one spatial passage after another appeared in front of Bai Jie. A dozen or so divine apostles who looked exactly like Noin walked out of the spatial passages. As soon as these divine apostles appeared, they all walked towards Bai Jie and wrapped themselves tightly around his body.

"Hey, hey, hey, you're not going to expect me to carry out that order with 20,000 of you, are you?"

“Each apostle is both a unified individual and a separate individual. I can only trouble you, Master.”

"Are you kidding me! Even with my strong kidneys, I can't withstand 20,000 people! I can only unleash my magic and run away—Hey! Don't pull down my pants! Wait, when did you guys take your clothes off too? Stop! Ah—"

Bai Jie only managed a scream before being tackled by the Norn one by one.

————————————————————————

Gensokyo, Rhodes Island, the control center.

Watching the live stream on the screen, Kal'tsit switched to the communication channel with a gloomy face: "Exusiai, get ready, it's time for us to go out."

【What's wrong? Why are you suddenly saying you're going out?】

"Bai Jie is messing around outside again. Let's go and teach him a lesson."

"I'll go find Frog Girl first; it seems my custom Gundam is already finished."

P.S.: I'm splitting this chapter into two, so I can post two chapters in one go—I'm such a genius (please don't hit me!).

Section 261, Question 32: Are all the beginner matches in Peacekeeper Elite played against bots?

Early the next morning, in the restaurant of the hotel in Holyard, Nagumo Hajime saw Bai Jie lying on the table as soon as he arrived. However, unlike usual, Bai Jie looked like a piece of coal that had been burned out, his whole body was grayish-white, and he was spitting out an unidentified white object.

No matter how you look at it, it looks like she's overworked.

Bai Jie, who was slumped over the table, saw Nan Yunshi approaching and slowly forced a tired smile: "Yo, good morning, Nan Yun."

"Fafner, what's wrong with you? Didn't you sleep all night?"

"It's nothing, it's just that I can finally feel your pain. You've always slept with Yue, you're truly a warrior."

Upon hearing this, even someone as thick-skinned as Nan Yunshi couldn't help but blush. If Bai Jie said that, it meant that Bai Jie had heard what he and Yue did every night in the Orcus Great Labyrinth.

"Wait, if you're saying that, then you didn't mean you did it last night...?"

Nan Yun Shi felt that he had discovered something terrifying. If the truth was as he thought, wouldn't something terrible be about to happen?

Under Nagumo Hajime's shocked gaze, Bai Jie revealed a look of despair: "Don't talk to me about last night, that was the nightmare of my entire life. I've lived for almost a hundred years, but I've never experienced such despair as last night, with twenty thousand of them suddenly appearing..."

Twenty thousand!?

Nagumo Hajime was truly shocked and speechless. He was already exhausted from just Yue alone, and Bai Jie had actually done 20,000?!

"Wait, Fafnir, where did you find 20,000 of them? And all in one night... You didn't go to the red-light district, did you?"

"How could I possibly go to the red-light district? Try looking for a red-light district in Horyad! Those 20,000 are all sent by some trash god! He talks about reconciliation, but I think he just wants me to die on a woman's belly! If I weren't immortal, I probably would have really been done for!"

“God…Eshid?” Nan Yun finally understood. “So you were outsmarted by Eshid.”

"Yeah, that guy created a group called the 'Apostles of God.' Twenty thousand identical Valkyries took turns pinning me down on the bed, and each one of them was just as physically capable as me. Plus, because it happened so suddenly, I didn't have time to unseal my magic..."

"And then you were tortured all night, that's really miserable." Nan Yun Shi gave Bai Jie a knowing look and patted him hard on the shoulder. "But if it's 20,000 people... why is there still no movement?"

"Because when I was being pinned down on the bed by the 968th person, I finally managed to break part of the seal, creating a different dimension and dragging them all into that dimension. They are still locked up by me now."

After all, there are 20,000 people who look exactly alike. If they were released, it would definitely cause world turmoil. Although that would lead to chaos in the world, which is exactly what Bai Jie, who craves fun, wants, he would probably be the first to suffer if he did that. So, in order to avoid working himself to death, Bai Jie locked up all 20,000 Noin.

"So, shall we have lunch before we set off? What's our next destination?"

"Well, since I need to send the shameful hero back, I plan to take everyone back to the capital first, and then go to Mount Kami. According to Miledi Lesen, one of the seven labyrinths is on Mount Kami, and I expect we'll have to fight a big battle with the church then."

"It's not an estimate, it's almost certain that there will be a fight. After all, Mount Shen is the church's stronghold, and you don't know the entrance to the maze, so they'll definitely turn Mount Shen upside down. With the church's fiery temper, it's no wonder they'll kill you."
