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

The side quest "Secret Oath Scroll of the Fairy Lake" features a relatively prominent character in its side story, a wandering shrine maiden named Fuyuhotaru.

She is a dedicated assassin trained by the Chaoyan's(朝延: name of a dynasty) secret organization, "Shadow Cage".

However, due to certain accidents, she escaped from the Shadow Cage and travels through the sixty-six countries as a wandering shrine maiden, searching for her younger sister.

Shrine Maiden Fuyuhotaru is a very skilled assassin, but she is not a powerful exorcist. Her spiritual power is not strong, and she doesn't possess any effective exorcism abilities. She doesn't even have the abilities of some legitimate folk shrine maidens and prayer masters.

Her abilities have never been about dealing with powerful monsters.

This woman is a "demon slayer assassin" carefully cultivated by the Shadow Cage organization through human experimentation and body modification, specifically to assassinate exorcists who pose a threat to the court.

Fuyuhotaru has undergone multiple physical modifications, completely losing her sense of pain and certain organs. By shortening her lifespan, she gains extraordinary physical abilities, coupled with various undetectable assassination methods, making her terrifying.

Within the Shadow Cage organization, she was cultivated with an unconventional personality. If you were to become her enemy, she would not hesitate to kill.

However, on the other hand, she also has a personality of "always repaying debts".

"Are you Miss Fuyuhotaru?"

Hyakusuke doesn't plan to waste time. He gets straight to the point, saying, "Actually, even if I don't help you, those small fries are no match for you... right?"

As he speaks, the wandering shrine maiden tenses up, and a look of vigilance appears on her face.

"Who... exactly are you?"

"Please don't misunderstand."

Hyakusuke quickly interrupts her suspicion.

"I, no, I am a Chunin from Kurohime Mountain, and definitely have nothing to do with the court. Even if there was a chance, it would be impossible to infiltrate here... Miss Fuyuhotaru, I am helping you for my own reasons. Could you give me a chance to explain?"

He adds.

"Regarding some information about your younger sister, if you want to know, could you come with me somewhere."

This sentence moves the expressionless woman.

"Let's talk there."

Hyakusuke points to a matchmaking teahouse next door.

...

Matchmaking teahouse.

It's a love hotel of this era.

In other words, it's a " pao fang, slang for brothel" understood by the masses of later generations - a place specifically for couples having affairs. However, there are some benefits here. To ensure privacy, the internal rooms are thickened and reinforced.

Hyakusuke isn't afraid that this woman won't follow.

He believes that as long as he throws out information about her sister, Fuyuhotaru can't resist the bait.

"First of all, your younger sister is indeed not dead."

Hyakusuke says calmly, "Your years of running around have not been meaningless. She is still alive."

"Is that so?"

Her lips tremble slightly.

Her sister is not dead.

Fuyuhotaru doesn't have any evidence of this. She has always insisted on this one-sidedly. However, even she has had doubts about this insistence. If her sister really died in the fire, then everything she has done would be meaningless.

"Thank you."

Fuyuhotaru's voice becomes a little hoarse.

"However, how do I confirm the authenticity of this information?"

"Then there's no way."

Hyakusuke smiles wryly, "Trust is a difficult thing. How can you trust someone with just a few words... However, doesn't Miss Fuyuhotaru want to hear me talk about her sister's whereabouts before deciding whether it's true or false?"

"Please tell me."

She asks with a serious face.

"Your younger sister was kidnapped when the fire broke out that day."

Hyakusuke says, "This was done by 'Nigifuku(逆福: Reverse Fortune)' of the Eight Gods. As for the reason, Miss Fuyuhotaru should have guessed part of it."

Fuyuhotaru remains silent, her eyes lowered, seemingly lost in thought.

"The Eight Blessings Society... or 'Reverse Fortune'. They should have been destroyed by the Holy Guard Twelve years ago, and several of their leaders were killed, leaving only some remnants. Moreover, that was in the capital. They couldn't possibly..."

One of the most powerful pawns currently controlled by the court is the "Holy Guard Twelve", whose mission is to protect Kyoto and the imperial family. All twelve members are powerful ability users, composed of exorcists, demon-slaying swordsmen, Onmyoji, and martial arts experts.

Among these people are descendants of the Tsuchimikado clan, sword masters who can split the clouds in the sky with a swing of their swords, and "oni users" who can control hundreds of large demons...

The current leader of the Holy Guard Twelve is Genkai Meitan, the head of the Yin Yang Liao.

This man is considered a rare sorcerer and is also called "the contemporary En no Ozunu".

On the other hand, the management of the "Shadow Cage" intelligence organization is also handled by six members of the Holy Guard Twelve.

"Nothing is impossible."

Hyakusuke says in a deep voice, "People will lie... If, and I mean if, the people who besieged the Eight Blessings Society back then lied and did not successfully destroy the Eight Blessings Society, then what would happen?"

"But, several adults from the Holy Guard Twelve were involved in this matter."

The former assassin frowns.

Hyakusuke half-closes his eyes helplessly at this attitude.

Fuyuhotaru has received brainwashing-like education in the past and will not particularly doubt the court's position.

"Also, why do you think the Holy Guard Twelve wouldn't lie?"

He simply asks in reply.

This sentence makes the wandering shrine maiden widen her eyes even more.

"You..."

She pauses halfway through her sentence.

"Who exactly are you? If what you're saying is true, then why do you know this information?"

"Hmm~"

Hyakusuke crosses his arms, pretending to sigh.

"Well, Miss Fuyuhotaru should have heard of the name 'Priestess of the Eternal Night', that is a group of priestesses residing in Izutsu Mountain."

"They are not priestesses residing in the mortal world, but priestesses who serve a shrine at the boundary between the living and the dead. All of them are born with the ability to hear the voices of the dead, and to predict disasters or avert calamities, and they also have a strong influence on national politics."

"The higher-ups of the Yin Yang Liao should have some contact with the Priestesses of the Eternal Night and be able to obtain some of their predictions. I also obtained some information through some means... I can't reveal more specific details--"

He makes up a lie.

However, as a character in the game, it is basically impossible to see through this lie.

'The information of the Eternal Night Priestess is not something ordinary people can know, however, Fuyuhotaru is an insider, and she can even have some relationship with those priestesses...'

Hyakusuke begins to observe her expression.

At this time, the wandering shrine maiden becomes silent again, she is obviously hesitant.

However, after thinking for a while, Fuyuhotaru seems to have made a decision.

"I believe you, Mr. Hyakusuke."

"That's good."

Hyakusuke also breathes a sigh of relief.

"Where exactly is your younger sister now... only the core members of the Eight Blessings Society Reverse Fortune know. My suggestion is that you can go to Hoki Province and find a place called Takiniji Temple, you may be able to find some clues there."

He sighs: "Sorry, I spoke so big before, but in reality, I can't understand much information."

"No, just knowing that Amai(阿舞: Amai, younger sister's name) is still alive is very important to me."

Her tone is very firm.

"That's good..."

Hyakusuke is in a good mood. As mentioned before, this woman's personality is "always repaying debts and avenging grudges".

She will remember helping Fuyuhotaru very clearly, and if she has a grudge against her, she will kill without any hesitation.

In the original side quest, if the male protagonist doesn't handle it properly, Fuyuhotaru will kill those ronin when leaving the Sukuba Town.

The ronin's accomplices will blame this on the male protagonist, causing him to suffer a big loss in a subsequent event.

This is also a characteristic of the game "Oborozuki no Akari", which often buries landmines in the plot, and they explode when stepped on.

'The information of Takiniji Temple in Hoki Province is also true... Hehe, Fuyuhotaru figured it out herself in the original work, and now I'm just telling her the conclusion in advance, and even if she goes there, she can't actually find out any relevant information.'

It sounds like this is a wasted trip, however, at this stage, not letting Fuyuhotaru find her sister or find the clues of the Eight Blessings Society's "Reverse Fortune" lineage will kill her.

Considering that as long as Fuyuhotaru survives, she can still open several side quests outside the main line, and her favorability as an NPC is high, which can help with some future events, Hyakusuke only hopes that she doesn't die too early.

Because this NPC will be useful to him in the future.

While he was thinking, Fuyuhotaru, who was sitting on the opposite zabuton, also made strange movements - she began to untie her belt and take off her undyed pure white clothes.

Hyakusuke was stunned for a moment and couldn't react, and Fuyuhotaru took off another piece of clothing, revealing the inner shirt and bare shoulders.

Then, the long hair bun on Fuyuhotaru's head fell apart.

"Wait... wait, what are you doing?"

The wandering shrine maiden's voice is very calm, without any shyness or shame.

"Do you not want to do it?"

Fuyuhotaru said righteously.

"Do... what?"

Hyakusuke opened his mouth wide as if he was frightened.

"I thought Mr. Hyakusuke brought me here because he intended to do it."

Fuyuhotaru said plausibly.

"I don't have any money, I don't have anything... Mr. Hyakusuke brought me such important information, but I don't have any means of thanking you, it seems that I can only repay you with my body."

She bows her head.

"Because it's my first time, I don't quite understand how to serve a man, but I will still do my best..."

Hyakusuke didn't make any expression, the black shadow penetrated into his back and twisted on the floor... At the same time, the invisibility talisman that he kept close to his body was also slightly hot.

--Where did this stinky and dirty bitch come from, kill her right now...

--Start rotting and festering from the internal organs and then give them to the worms to play with until they die.
