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

Chapter 234 Scumbag
Hyakusuke and Ayaka's remarks completely threw Yomei's mind into chaos.

Her mouth was dry and her mind was in turmoil; she even doubted whether she had misheard.

"You two... are you kidding me?"

"No kidding."

Ayaka sighed.

"Hyakusuke and I just confirmed our relationship. We don't intend to hide it from you... I'm really sorry, sister, I've also fallen for Hyakusuke."

A hint of pain appeared on the girl's face.

This pain lasted for quite some time. She was unwilling to admit that she had fallen in love with Hyakusuke, because it would make her feel like she had betrayed her stepsister.

However, nowadays, Ayaka is unwilling to go against her true feelings.

"However, I have no intention of taking Hyakusuke away. If you are willing to be Hyakusuke's wife, I don't mind being his concubine."

"What nonsense are you spouting?"

Ye Ming's face flushed red.

She suddenly stood up, said, "I don't want to hear you say this," and quickly ran out.

"What...what should I do?"

Hyakusuke felt utterly helpless about this scene.

He didn't know how to handle this either. Ayaka's idea was that Yoru would accept her idea of ​​"two women serving one husband".

However, no one knows whether Ye Ming actually agrees with this.

If Ye Ming is unwilling to share his lover with his adopted sister, then this matter cannot be discussed further.

"Do not worry."

Ayaka said confidently, "Even for my older sister, it's not something that can be done quickly to get her to accept our relationship and our future relationship... But now, my husband should comfort my sister."

"Let me catch up with them?"

Hyakusuke sighed again.

"To be honest, I'm not good with words and I really don't have the confidence to comfort her."

Ayaka placed her hand on his and softly comforted Hyakusuke.

"Also, my husband, whether you can win the beauty's heart depends on your performance now~~ I know very well what my sister thinks of you. She's already head over heels for you. If you just say a few nice words, it won't be difficult to win her over."

She cleared her throat: "Later, I will also find an opportunity to have a good talk with my sister. She is also a descendant of the exorcist clan. In fact, in large families, it is not strange to marry two wives and take a few concubines in addition to the main wife. Moreover, Bai Jie, you are also the young master of the Zi Yue family. Even if she doesn't like it, she will eventually accept it."

Bai Jie still felt a slight resistance. As a transmigrator from the modern era, a normal monogamous romantic relationship was the norm for him. Of course, he also knew that this was a very common thing in this era.

No one would gossip about having multiple wives and concubines in this era; the heads of powerful exorcist families and other important figures all had numerous wives and concubines.

However, he still felt somewhat guilty about forcing Ye Ming to agree to this idea.

Don't overthink it!

Ayaka smiled.

“My sister and I are family. In my opinion, my husband will become my family sooner or later. Or do you not have the confidence to give my sister and me a happy life?”

"No man would say no to this kind of thing."

Hyakusuke's tone was very firm.

He slowly stood up and nodded to Ayaka.

"I'm going to chase after Ye Ming."

After saying that, he left the tent.

Not long after Bai Jie left, he found Ye Ming.

In fact, because of those shackles, she couldn't go very far.

Bai Jie found her with almost no effort.

"Yoru, I'm sorry... about Ayaka and me."

Ye Ming turned around and punched him in the chest without saying a word.

However, this punch had no power whatsoever.

"you……"

Unable to hold back her tears, they rolled down her cheeks.

"While I was worried about you every day and even asked Ayaka to stay and take care of you... you responded to my expectations by getting involved with my stepsister. We're always kissing and clinging to each other."

"Hyakusuke, you have disappointed me greatly."

Bai Jie swayed and almost fell to the ground.

"Wait a minute, Yoru, it's not like we've gotten together... Ayaka and I have a completely platonic relationship, we haven't done anything."

"Stop talking, I don't want to hear it at all."

She turned her head away, tears streaming from the girl's eyes, dripping onto the sand in the night.

"I'm sorry, I know I've disappointed you."

Bai Jie's voice also sounded helpless.

"I promised you that I would reply to you in seven years, and I also said that I would not focus my energy on romantic relationships during this time... But because of Ayaka, I still broke that promise. I am really sorry. I couldn't resist Ayaka's temptation... No, that's not right. I can't put the blame on Ayaka."

He said sincerely, "Ayaka just confessed to me. She said she had liked me for a long time... And honestly, I could have refused, but Ayaka's attitude made it impossible for me to refuse. I'm really incompetent, Yoruaki."

"I know."

Ye Ming's voice was cold. She felt utterly exhausted, both physically and mentally, and could barely stand on her own anymore.

"Actually, I was wrong too. I sensed Ayaka's feelings for you before, but for various reasons, I pretended not to see them."

The girl wiped her eyes as she recalled Ayaka's unnatural behavior.

When exactly did it start?

Yoru thought to herself that Ayaka must have developed feelings for Hyakusuke after the incident at Genkoji Temple.

"So when you think about it... Ayaka and I aren't that far apart in age. Besides, when it comes to feelings, it's not like whoever is one step ahead has an advantage."

Her voice also turned cold.

Hyakusuke also gave a slight, bitter smile.

"So, can you forgive Ayaka?"

"I won't get angry with my adopted sister."

She said irritably, "No matter what Ayaka does, I won't be angry with her. I promised my deceased father and my brother Kukutsu that I would take good care of Ayaka."

So you're angry with me?

Bai Jie said, "That's alright, Ye Ming. Just push all your suffering onto me. After all, in the eyes of the world, my behavior is typical of a scumbag."

"no need."

Ye Ming's voice was icy: "I don't even have the energy to get angry right now."

When Bai Jie heard her say that, he was speechless. At that moment, only an awkward silence enveloped the two of them.

Suddenly, a strong wind swept across the desert, and something obscured the bright moon in the sky.

Hyakusuke and Yoru immediately sensed something. To their surprise, they saw a huge device, resembling a hot air balloon, slowly drifting down from the sky. "Little Yoru...it's been so long."

A beautiful woman was waving to the two people from the basket hanging below the hot air balloon.

"Goose House?"

Yoruaki's voice was somewhat puzzled; she hadn't expected the person who came to be Kagaya Tomoe, a member of the Kagaya branch family.

"And us."

Matsudaira Inomaro and Saizo were also on it.

Bai Jie then remembered that these two had been tracking Ye Ming's whereabouts ever since Ye Ming was kidnapped by the Sword Saint.

'I didn't expect them to find me. I only managed to get information about Yoru from Kurohime Miyuki, which is why I arrived ahead of schedule.'

Hyakusuke and Ayaka traveled alone to get here. After learning about Yomei's situation from Miyuki, the former head of the family who had been turned into a doll (how she knew this is a mystery), Hyakusuke decided to fly to the Tottori Desert to rescue Yomei.

Once you master the ability to fly, flying and moving becomes extremely easy, and even if you take Ayaka with you, there won't be much of a problem.

As for Zhuo'an, Hai Nai and his group, they are currently still at a port in Dewa Province.

After entering the desert, he sensed two strong spiritual energies, one of which was very familiar. He hid Ayaka aside and told her to protect herself, and rushed over ahead of time to run into the Sword Saint.

So he challenged the Sword Saint, Kibune Kyōunsai, to a wager. He ended up getting beaten unconscious. Quite a sorry sight.

However, Hyakusuke did not expect Matsudaira and Saizo to arrive, nor did he expect that the acting head of the branch family, Kagaya Tomoe, would also appear.

"Lord Yeming, you really made us search for you for a long time."

Old man Matsudaira had been frowning for days, but he burst into laughter when he saw Yoru.

"Yes...we went through so many detours. It seems that the Sword Saint Kibune Kyōunsai tricked us with his shikigami, causing us to take many detours and end up in other places."

He was hiding his displeasure.

"Later, we encountered a walking shrine maiden named Fuyuki, and it was with her help that we realized we had been tricked... Later still, Lady Kariya found us, and we learned that Yoake had been kidnapped to this place."

"Winter Firefly?"

A look of surprise appeared on Hyakusuke's face as well.

He never expected to hear the name of the "wandering witch" here.

"Speaking of which, Dongying should have gone to find her sister as I instructed, but I wonder if she found anything."

Dongying's younger sister was kidnapped by the Hachifukukai. According to the timeline of the original work, she probably won't find many clues.

In fact, if this wandering priestess were to actually discover something, she would most likely lose her life because of it.

"Little Yeming, you did a great job!"

Kagaya Tomoe praised her with a smile.

"I never expected that you would actually return to your old territory and even defeat the Shadow of God..."

"However, even if the Shadow of God is defeated, it will not have much impact on the evil god Kotankoro Kamui."

Ye Ming's tone was also somewhat distressed.

"Koutankoro Kamui has not been weakened by us. On the contrary, this monster is getting stronger and stronger. It is now threatening Dewa Province and is planning to confront Tenjin Sakura Mahora. If it succeeds, the entire Yamato court may be destroyed."

"You've done a fantastic job."

Kagaya Tomoe slapped her back hard.

"Don't act so humble. You are now the head of the Yuejialuo clan."

"Cough cough cough..."

Ye Ming could only cough awkwardly a few times.

"correct."

She asked again, "Ba, why are you here? Is there something I need?"

"Yes, I have received the news."

Kagami Tomoe put on a stern face.

"Yoru, it seems that after you went to the former territory of Yuejialuo, you discovered a 'relic' left behind by the former head of the family, Lord Washizu?"

"Yes."

Ye Ming nodded.

“This is a secret my father told me before he died. After we went to the old territory, we did find a strange object.”

She took a necklace off her neck.

Calling it a necklace isn't quite right; it was actually a small wooden box compressed into a cube the size of a thumb.

"However, I and others tried many methods, but we found that we couldn't open this thing."

Ye Ming and the others also studied this strange wooden box.

This wooden box appears to be sealed using some kind of special magic, and cannot be opened using conventional methods.

"So that's it."

Kagaya Tomoe looked thoughtful.

"Little Yeming, regarding this box, my father, who was also the former head of the Kariya family, was entrusted with a task by the Washizu family head. Two months before his death, the Washizu family head gave my father a key and told him that one day, Little Yeming, after you obtain a wooden box that he had hidden, he would give you the key."

She sighed softly as she finished speaking.

"Unfortunately, my father was seriously injured in the previous battle and ultimately could not survive. I had no choice but to take the place of the male head of the family and become the head of the clan. He specifically told me this when he passed away."

Bai Jie was stunned when he heard this.

He, as a player, knew how to open the chest.

In fact, opening the box requires a very special technique. You have to complete a special task to learn this technique.

After regaining his memories, Hyakusuke could skip even this step, because he could reproduce the technique on his own based on his memories from before he lost his memory.

However, he had never heard of any "key" needed to unlock the wooden box left behind by the head of the Washizu family.

"There's a problem with Ganwuba."

The thought suddenly popped into his mind. Bai Jie's expression didn't change, but a sense of vigilance arose in his heart.

In fact, Tomoe Kariya in the original work was not a member of the protagonist's "camp".

She is a character in the story and gets along well with the protagonist, Ye Ming, but they fight each other when they compete for the position of family head.

Afterwards, they did acknowledge the protagonist Ye Ming's status as the head of the family.

However, there is a bad ending: when Kagaya Tomoe is vying for the headship of the clan, she will kill Yoake and, before the protagonist dies, declare, "You are not qualified to inherit the clan."

'This woman... there's definitely something fishy about her. She might be after the box.'

Bai Jie quickly thought of something else.

The Twenty-Six Holy Knights, along with the Hidden Shidan organization, were also searching for the box, even going so far as to send an undercover agent to Zenzo, one of the Twelve Guardians of the Holy Light.

Shanzang relentlessly pursued them in order to seize the box. If it weren't for his clever tactics, they would have had a hard time defeating him.

—Could this woman, Yanagi Tomoe, also be a member of the Twenty-Sixth Holy Knights Order?!
This idea suddenly popped into Hyakusuke's mind.
