Crossover anime, starting with Hachiman Hikigaya replacing Subaru Natsuki!

"It would be a terrible thing if the king noticed you because of the stark contrast in your personality."

"The scary part isn't that the king will discover that your soul has been replaced—once that's discovered, you can simply pledge allegiance to the king. The king and the first princess have similar personalities; as long as you're useful to them, you'll obediently serve as their dog, and they don't really care about anything else."

"The scary thing is that the king might discover that healers can become stronger by visible means through healing people."

"The king, who is no fool, is certainly aware of how terrifying this thing's potential is, and he may very well order its execution."

"...Although the probability of being discovered is not high, considering that the kingdom can accurately find new heroes, it must have knowledge about heroes. Ayanokoji Kiyotaka is absolutely unwilling to meet that king before he is strong enough."

"In that case, he can only act in a way that fits the original character of Kyal, and then make some modifications."

"Great, you're awake."

With a loud bang, the woman barged in without asking any questions. Freya, who had given herself away too many times, thought she was acting well. After a few words of concern, she went straight to the point: "I know this is painful, but for the future of the kingdom, can you continue to treat others?"

"I...I...it hurts so much, it really hurts so much."

"Ayanokoji Kiyotaka mimicked the same wail that Kyal had just made, then tremblingly mustered his courage and said, 'But for Princess Freya, I... I should be able to try... Eek, though it really hurts, it's terrifying!'"

"If it were a normal leader, they would definitely make a breakthrough at this point and then cultivate a sycophant who would obey their every command and be willing to lick their boots. This kind of sycophant with initiative is much better than a brainwashed assassin."

"Ayanokoji Kiyotaka wants Freya to believe that he can be tamed into a lapdog, so that she can get through her brief period of weakness."

"But as Freya left with a smile, Ayanokoji Kiyotaka realized from her various subtle behaviors that he had overestimated Freya's intelligence and patience. As the first princess, she neither understood the benefits of having a sycophant nor had the patience to tame one."

"Most importantly, Freya found it troublesome. She felt that the cowardly Kyal might change his mind, so she might as well just brainwash him."

"Next, they'll probably try to brainwash us with force, but that's okay, it's better than going to see the king."

"Freya, looking disgusted, left Kyal's room and ordered her general, 'Force him to drink that addictive potion and throw him in the dungeon—how disgusting that a lowly commoner dares to have designs on me, the princess!'"

Kyal's eyes were glazed, then turned ashen, and finally his face turned deathly pale. His legs gave way, and he collapsed to the ground with a thud, his teeth chattering.

First, his treatment was incredibly painful; then, Ayanokouji Kiyotaka took over his body; and finally, his beloved, the First Princess Freya, never paid him any attention from beginning to end.

He was a lowly commoner, a lowly commoner who shouldn't have his own thoughts, and who would even be considered a blasphemy and disrespect to look at the First Princess.

He thought that after becoming a hero, he would rise to become a nobleman and live a good life with his adoptive sister.

But this kind of future…

"Hurry, Kyal!"

Kyal was stunned and terrified, but his foster sister was very strong and immediately thought of something.

Seeing these future possibilities, the First Princess and the King, whose hypocrisy has been exposed, will definitely take their anger out on the siblings. Staying in this village any longer is a dead end!

444. Kayal’s savior, Ayanokouji Kiyotaka

As the otherworldly stepsister dragged Kyal away, and some greedy villagers, realizing what was happening, prepared to intercept them.

On Earth, at Advanced Nurturing High School, Ichinose Honami was looking at Ayanokouji Kiyotaka with great surprise. She only knew that Ayanokouji Kiyotaka was incredibly strong, but she didn't know that he also had such a thinking ability.

Although Kiyotaka Ayanokouji's wisdom has only been limited so far, and he has made a mistake in the most crucial matter of dealing with Freya, it is actually a choice between two evils that is within his control.

Ayanokoji Kiyotaka was not unaware that if he did not directly pledge allegiance, he might be subjected to forceful brainwashing, but he preferred to accept defeat rather than go to see the king.

Being brainwashed is even less harmful to him, meaning that Kiyotaka Ayanokoji is confident that he can remain clear-headed while being brainwashed, and at the same time pretend to have been successfully brainwashed.

"If it can really be done, no wonder he's confident enough to go find Hikigaya-kun."

To draw an analogy, imagine remaining unmoved after using opium; just thinking about that kind of willpower makes Honami Ichinose feel suffocated. If Kiyotaka Ayanokoji can maintain his composure in this disadvantageous situation and continue to grow stronger by healing others, he will one day be able to turn the tables.

However, she soon realized that she had underestimated the difficulty.

"What are you doing? Why have you brought me here? I want to see the princess! I want to see the princess!"

In the dungeon, facing Ayanokouji Kiyotaka who was feigning fear and unease, the general chuckled, "Blame yourself for daring to value your life."

"Gulp, gulp."

"As the potent addictive drug was poured down his throat, Kiyotaka Ayanokoji could clearly feel his body going to heaven, and then falling into hell after the effects wore off. He began to crave the drug, and after craving it but not getting it, he started to experience pain, spasms, and even incontinence."

"But all of this being out of control has nothing to do with his consciousness."

Even though his soul and body were firmly gripped by that potion, endlessly craving it, Ayanokoji Kiyotaka's consciousness remained perfectly clear. He was like a third party, watching this farce without joy or sorrow.

"If he wants, he can suppress these symptoms at any time, or simply do what he wants while he has these symptoms, without any impact on him."

"The accolades for what is considered the greatest masterpiece have never been used to describe his intelligence and strength alone."

"But doing that is not in his interest... so let's keep acting and let the people of the kingdom think that he has been controlled. Whatever reaction Kyal has, that's how Ayanokouji Kiyotaka will react."

"Let's continue until we've healed enough people, gained enough power, and are confident we can defeat that king."

"...Imprisoned in the dungeon, controlled by drugs, treated whoever was ordered to be treated, and made to do whatever was asked of them. What should have been a high-ranking hero fell into hell, which made many people in the know laugh out loud."

"At first it was women, many women came to the dungeon to have reproductive acts with him; later men joined in, many soldiers and guards joined the revelry, they were particularly interested in Ayanokoji Kiyotaka's chrysanthemums."

"Later, it became a situation involving multiple people, including men and women, but the women were now merely playthings for the other men. Ayanokoji Kiyotaka could only stare blankly as the men played with his rear."

"I went for treatment during the day and was abused at night. This went on for several months."

"During this journey, the kingdom's other two heroes also came to the royal city, but because they still had to go to exterminate the demons, they only stayed for a few days. During these few days, these two heroes also joined this carnival."

"The Sword Hero, Bred, is a woman, but she is a lesbian and has a crush on the First Princess, Freya."

"After Breed learned of Freya's dislike for Ayanokouji Kiyotaka, she went into the dungeon alone, wearing high heels, and stomped on Ayanokouji Kiyotaka's hot dog while cursing."

"After stomping on it, he would order Ayanokouji Kiyotaka to restore his hot dog, and then continue to stomp on it again, still not satisfied, over and over again."

"The other hero is a man, the Cannon Hero, Bright. He is tall and strong, and enjoys engaging in reproductive activities with Ayanokoji Kiyotaka, reaching the peak of pleasure through ravaging and thrusting."

"I'm sorry, I love you; I'm sorry, I love you; I'm sorry, I love you; I'm sorry, I love you; I'm sorry, I love you; I'm sorry, I love you..."

"He would ravage her while apologizing and professing his love—saying 'I love you' but never thinking of freeing his concubine 'Kayal'."

"Bang!"

Kyal, who was fleeing, was still in a daze and just let his sworn sister pull him along. It was only a matter of time before the villagers behind them caught up with them.

But when he saw the life of Kiyotaka Ayakoji after she was possessed, he trembled and fell down. Instead, he regained his senses, hugged his sister, and ran away for his life.

Its speed was unmatched, leaving the villagers behind in the dust.

Kyal was covered in goosebumps; he was consumed by despair and fear.

He had previously been indignant and felt it was unforgivable that Ayanokouji Kiyotaka had possessed him, but now he was filled with relief and gratitude.

He was incredibly grateful that Ayanokoji Kiyotaka had killed him in time.

Otherwise, he would absolutely not be able to bear facing this hell on earth. The triple humiliation of his body, soul, and personal dignity—this ultimate insult—would make him rather die than face it!

In his arms, his foster sister, who was heartbroken about the future of her younger brother's physical body, now shared the same thoughts as Kyal.

Hatred had turned into overwhelming gratitude; Ayanokoji Kiyotaka was like a timely rain that came at just the right time.

"Oh!"

At the same time in the royal city, Freya suddenly stood up, her face contorted and her expression so vicious it was indescribable. She abandoned all noble etiquette and stared at the light screen in the sky with venomous eyes.

Although the kingdom will not be overthrown, the commoners will still be commoners.

But once her true colors were exposed, her approachable and kind facade was overturned, and all the vicious things she had done were laid bare before the whole world, she was finished.

The heir to the kingdom is definitely her younger sister, the second princess; the emperor will not hand the kingdom over to her, given her scandalous entrance.

Even if her father were willing, people like the Sword Saint, who claim to be innocent, would never support her. In that case, she still wouldn't be able to compete with her younger sister.

"Kayal, Ayanokouji Kiyotaka, you deserve to die, you all deserve to die! I will tear you to pieces, tear you to pieces!!"

445. Don't let a scoundrel try to extort money from you.

In Advanced Education High School, the most gangster-like place is Dragon Garden.

He had initially thought he was already quite dark and cruel, but the Archbishops of Sin opened his eyes to a whole new level. And now, the actions of the First Princess Freya and her soldiers were even more astonishing.

While the Archbishops of Sin are indeed evil, terrifying, and unpredictable, their limits in frightening or manipulating people far surpass those of Freya.

The problem is that none of the Archbishops of Sin are normal people. They have unique ways of thinking and their own unique values, while Freya is a perfectly normal person!

She understands what normal values ​​and morals are like, which can be seen from her usual pretense, and her true nature is that of a normal person.

For a normal person to do something like this, Longyuan is far, far closer to those lunatics like the Archbishops of Sin.

Dragon Garden could not replicate the terror of the Archbishops of Sin, but he could replicate Freya's terror... Even so, he would never do it!

"I, Long Yuanxiang, enjoy scheming and bullying my classmates, beating them until they vomit blood. Coercion and bribery are also common tactics. But even someone like me can distinguish between disgusting evil!"

After speaking with firm and powerful words, Long Yuanxiang slowly exhaled a breath of stale air.

His statement resonated with Horikita Manabu, Yanagisaka Arisu, and others. No one who could stand at the top of this school was a good person, but no matter how bad they were, they still had a basic level of conscience.

The girls, including Karuizawa Kei and Ichinose Honami, had already looked away, too afraid to look at this other world that was even darker than the real medieval world. Only Horikita Suzune watched it intently from beginning to end.

Kiyotaka Ayanokouji suffered a huge setback and a severe insult. If it were when she was watching Emilia's World, she would have already jumped up and mocked him.

However, after being proven wrong multiple times, she deeply realized how powerful Hachiman Hikigaya was. With a humble attitude, she began to look at Kiyotaka Ayanokoji, who often predicted what Hachiman Hikigaya would do, and she underwent a transformation.

What she sees now is not Ayanokouji Kiyotaka's failure, but his terrifyingly tenacious self-awareness, which is almost godlike.

Drained by women, played with by men, trampled on by hot dogs, his body rotting and stinking, he suffers from incontinence due to his craving for medicine...

Even so, Kiyotaka Ayanokoji's self-awareness remained calm and undisturbed.

Even if his lack of emotions is partly to blame, he is not immune to pain. The physical pain and the empathetic pain during treatment—being able to endure these has absolutely nothing to do with whether or not he has emotions.

Moreover, the current disadvantage is not that Ayanokouji Kiyotaka made a mistake. These mistakes are actually the mess left by Kyal. He is just cleaning up Kyal's mess and has no choice but to pick one out of the limited two options.

If it had been Kiyotaka Ayanokoji facing Freya from the beginning, things would never have come to this.

"Ayanokoji, what exactly are you...?"

Muttering to themselves, hundreds of students at the school, including Horikita Suzune, looked at Ayanokoji Kiyotaka with eyes full of sympathy and admiration.

Just like in the future, Ayanokouji Kiyotaka's expression was indifferent at the moment, as if he didn't see his suffering. No one knew what he was thinking.

Only he knew that he was simulating in his mind what would happen if Hachiman Hikigaya were in his position, making a comparison that he found quite amusing.

Thinking about this, Kiyotaka Ayanokouji unconsciously smiled slightly, which puzzled everyone else even more.

…Even gangster Ryuen Sho felt this terrified, let alone ordinary high school students like Shirogane Miyuki, Izumi Masamune, Oreki Houtarou, and Yuiga Nariyuki.

They had already covered the eyes of their younger sister or the female classmates, but Uesugi Futaro couldn't do so because there were too many people, so he asked the Nakano Five Sisters to cover their eyes with books.
