Zongman Infinity: Choose the Succubus entry at the beginning

"Oh, you heard right."

Nobuna thought there was something wrong with her, but she didn't expect it to be such a small matter.

"You are Su Mingqing's trophy, and you should belong to him."

"If he hadn't brought you here, you wouldn't have had the opportunity to serve the Oda family."

"Or... do you prefer being a concubine to being a retainer?"

"No, no, thank you for your kindness."

Akechi Mitsuhide bowed his head in thanks with tears in his eyes.

These two people are obviously in the same group, right?!

……

[You have completed the campaign mission: "Infiltration of Inabayama Castle"!]

[You have earned 50 Merits]

【You have completed the first goal of the "Anchor Mission"! 】

[You have obtained the temporary bond piece of "Akechi Mitsuhide"]

[You have obtained the temporary bond piece of "Takenaka Hanbei"]

……

After returning to the room, Su Ming stretched comfortably and checked his gains.

Because the infiltration operation was a great success, Nobuna was able to capture Mino Province in one fell swoop.

Therefore, the merit rewards are also extremely generous, and the basic reward is as much as 10 merits!

After a 5-fold bonus, it’s 50!

Directly let Su Ming complete an anchor target!

The remaining two goals are about to be completed!

Collect 10 Jiwu general chess pieces respectively.

And successfully entered Beijing and Luoyang.

The latter is already in the plan and will be completed soon.

former……

"Let me see how many Ji Wujiang chess pieces I have now."

Except for the newly acquired Akechi Mitsuhide and Takenaka Hanbei.

Su Ming flipped through the chessboard space and laid out all the Ji Wu general chess pieces he had collected.

The first to obtain it was Goemon, followed by Shibata Katsuie.

There is also Inuchiyo, who has already been registered under his name.

Then there was Imagawa Yoshimoto, who was conquered after the Battle of Okehazama.

There are 6 chess pieces in total.

If we count Nobuna, who will appear sooner or later, and Niwa Nagahide.

That’s 8 chess pieces, two more missing!

It's a pity that Hattori Hanzo is a man

Although he is quite powerful, he is not a Ji general.

In addition, the bond level of the Ji generals on the chessboard is almost reaching level 20.

After level 20, a merit shop with more precious items will be opened!

This also made Su Ming very much looking forward to it.

"Who will fill these two positions?"

Just as Su Ming was thinking, Goemon's voice floated over from the rafters.

"My lord, Asai Nagamasashiki requests a visit."

......

Chapter 80 Attribute Breakthrough! In front of me, you can be a "woman"

"Thank you, Miss Nagamasa, for leading the troops to support the battle of Inabayama Castle."

After hearing Su Ming's opening remarks, Asai Nagamasa's hand holding the tea trembled slightly.

Because this was the first time she was addressed using female pronouns.

Since childhood, Asai Nagamasa has been careful to conceal his gender.

At one point, he even equated this secret with his life and property.

But Su Ming naturally regarded her as a woman.

After hesitating for a moment, Asai Nagamasa spoke slowly.

"...As an ally, this is just part of our job."

"Compared to this, I would like to know...how did you know that I am a girl?"

Su Ming took a sip of hot tea slowly and smiled.

"Speak frankly, right? I like this style."

"But I've always believed in fair trade."

"If you want to know a secret from me."

"Then... there's another secret that needs to be revealed."

"For example, why did you dress as a man and conceal your identity until now?"

In this chaotic Warring States period, the status of women is still low.

However, if one becomes a daimyo, it will be difficult to be held accountable after defeat.

Even if you fail, you can still become a nun and save your life.

Therefore, it was not uncommon for women to inherit the position of family head and become daimyo.

For example, Imagawa Yoshimoto and Oda Nobuna were in similar situations.

"You should know something about my background."

With a long sigh, Asai Nagamasa frowned slightly.

Talking about a past event that I don’t want to recall.

"I have been a hostage since I was young and have been under house arrest in the Rokkaku family."

"The head of the Liujiao family, Liujiao Chengzhen, is an extremely lustful person."

"In addition to young girls, even young girls will not be spared!"

"So, in order to protect me, my mother deliberately raised me as a boy."

"As I get older and... my body develops, it's becoming difficult to conceal my identity."

"So I found a way to escape from that devil's den and returned to the Asai family."

"Well...then what."

Su Ming touched his chin and commented.

"After you go home, you shouldn't have to hide it anymore, right?"

"it's not true."

Asai Nagamasa smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"Because my father objected, I had to give up my female identity and... the happiness of being a woman."

"Huh? Why."

This was somewhat beyond Su Ming's expectations.

Hiding one's identity when being a hostage is a last resort.

Unexpectedly, after returning to the family, she was still forced to pretend to be a man.

"Because my father is a stubborn man, he strongly disagrees with the current trend of being a daimyo."

Nagamasa bit his lower lip and explained quietly.

"But my father has no children besides me."

"She said that if I wanted to inherit the position of head of the Asai family, I had to live as a man."

"If you want to regain your daughter's body, you must sever ties with the Asai family."

Hearing this, Su Ming was thoughtful.

"So, you are asked to choose between the position of family head and freedom."

"Yes...I chose the former."

"As far as I'm concerned, you've just given up your freedom."

"..."

Nagamasa felt as if a needle had pricked his heart, causing some stinging pain.

She took a deep breath and continued.

"Anyway, in order to avenge Rokkaku, I gave up my female body and chose to live as a man."

"Besides... pretending to be a man will also benefit me."

"benefit?"

"For example, you could form an alliance with a princess like Oda Nobuna under the pretext of marriage."

Finally, Asai Nagamasa talked about what had happened recently.

"If this marriage can be accomplished, the Asai family and the Oda family will form a powerful force."

"Even if His Highness Nobuna discovers my identity afterwards."

"But the marriage contract has been made, and the alliance cannot be changed."

"But I didn't expect...that Nobuna-sama already has a man she likes."

Seeing the other party looking at him with a helpless look of gnashing teeth.

Su Ming shrugged and said calmly.

"No talent, it's me."

"...I have finished telling my secret."

Nagamasa glared at him unhappily.

"Now tell me how you knew this."

However, Su Ming did not answer this question.

Because he hadn't prepared an answer at all.

"Unfortunately, I only learned about it by chance and can't tell you where I heard it from."

"you!"

This was clearly a deceptive answer, causing Nagamasa to suddenly stand up and clench his fists.

"You just said you believed in fair trade!"

"That's right, so I'll give you a choice."

Facing the angry Asai Nagamasa, Su Ming took a sip of tea unmoved.

After putting down the teacup, he spoke slowly.
