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

The Immortal Lake Oath Scroll side quest is a very cost-effective one in the early game. It is not difficult to complete, and the rewards are quite good. After completing the quest, you can choose two prizes from the Snow Hag Princess's treasure vault.

This Lake Master's treasure vault has all sorts of good things. New players who complete the quest will usually choose a B+ grade treasure sword, 'Bontenmaru', or an A-grade cursed tool, 'Shibenki Dokushu'.

The former is a treasure sword with four spiritual power attributes: wind, fire, water, and earth, and comes with four powerful skills of different attributes.

The latter, 'Shibenki Dokushu', is an extremely powerful support item. When used on oneself, it can provide immunity to poison damage, and it can greatly weaken enemies of theOni attribute.

This is generally the reward that new players will choose. An old player likeBaijie would not choose these two rewards.

The problem with the treasure swordBontenmaru is that it consumes too much mana, meaning that only a powerful exorcist can wield it effectively.

Shibenki Dokushu will reduce health and stamina when equipped.

The 'reward' thatBaijie wants to choose at this stage is the one that is most beneficial to him.

"Regardless of whether I pass the trial or not, for the two selectable rewards, I will definitely choose 'Tokijiku no Kaguno Ko' and ' Shukuchi Ofuda'."

Tokijiku no Kaguno Ko is a magical fruit in Japanese legends that can make people live longer.

However, in the game, Tokijiku no Kaguno Ko is one of the rare enhancement items that can expand the upper limit of characters with low base stats.

Simply put, in the game 'Oborozuki no Akari', you can choose different teammates for some battles. However, each teammate's star-level attribute panel is different.

Some characters are naturally weak and not worth investing resources in.

However, the effect of Tokijiku no Kaguno Ko is to change this.

As for Shukuchi Ofuda, this item is a life-saving artifact in the early game.

"By obtaining these two reward items, I will have gained a small fortune in the 'Immortal Lake Oath Scroll' side quest."

He thought to himself as he walked out of the tea room.

"As long as you defeat one of my familiars, you will have passed this trial."

The Snow Hag Princess smiled slightly, and with a gentle wave of her long sleeves, a gust of wind blew, scattering countless piles of snow.

Bang! Poof!

A large amount of water sprayed out from the ground outside the tea room.

It was as if a hot spring had been dug up, forming a high-temperature fountain. Hot air billowed, and a large amount of hot water sprayed out, defying gravity and turning into water balls of various sizes, like bunches of grapes.

Then, the water balls connected one after another, merging into a transparent water beast shaped like a Chinese lion.

"So it's a 'Sui-ko' (Water Tiger)."

Baijie muttered softly. His right hand gripped the seven-sectioned staff, and his equipment was reproduced in this world formed by mirage.

The so-called 'Sui-ko' (Water Tiger) was originally a type of monster very similar to a Kappa, inhabiting the water's edge of rivers, lakes, ponds, and oceans.

However, in the game 'Oborozuki no Akari', the Sui-ko (Water Tiger) is similar to a water elemental or water spirit in a Western fantasy world. It is a supernatural creature whose form is constructed of water and is one of the monsters encountered by the main characters in the early stages of the game.

The Sui-ko (Water Tiger)'s strength is very close to that of a monster that has become a demon. For aGenin, it is often difficult to cope with even with the combined efforts of several people. If they are not careful, their companions may be caught by the Sui-ko (Water Tiger) and drowned.

'This kind of monster, to put it bluntly, is more like a slime-type amorphous blob, only made of water. It can pass through and move through any narrow gap, and can also become invisible...'

They also eat people, especially preferring human flesh after draining the blood. The specific method is to grab a living person, use the body made of water to drown them from the inside, and then eat them.

"For an exorcist, Sui-ko (Water Tiger) are indeed very weak."

The Snow Hag let out a chuckle.

"But the Sui-ko (Water Tiger) under my command is much stronger than the average wild Sui-ko (Water Tiger). The water in its body is mixed with a paralyzing poison. If you accidentally get some on you, or get caught by the Sui-ko (Water Tiger) and trapped inside its body, the battle will end instantly."

The Lake Master thought so in her mouth, but was secretly muttering in her heart.

'What a hassle~~ The weakest of my familiars is this Sui-ko (Water Tiger). The young man's strength is too weak. Even if I want to throw the fight, I can't find a suitable trial opponent...'

The Lake Master of Snow Hag Lake never lacked powerful aquatic familiars, but there were too few weak ones. Considering this young man's meager spiritual power, he should have about a 60% chance of winning against this Sui-ko (Water Tiger).

It's just that she is also a proper benevolent deity, and the "trial" given to mortals should be somewhat difficult. If she blatantly favors him, it wouldn't be good either.

The Snow Hag Princess yawned like a lazy cat.

However, conversely, considering the "special" nature of the young man's identity, providing him with assistance is also her duty.

"Forget it, this is just a trial. Even if he fails, it's not a problem. I can think of some ideas to give him some help later."

At the same time,Baijie on the other side, seeing the appearance of the Sui-ko (Water Tiger), also became relaxed.

'Great... the enemy of the trial is a Sui-ko (Water Tiger), the difficulty has been reduced drastically.'

He recalled the "cards" he had in his hand. If he were to deal with a normal monster, as long as it was at the level of a Yama-otoko (mountain man), he would be very strained, and the chances of winning would not be high.

However, nowBaijie would not dare to say that he was sure of victory, but he also had a certainty in his heart about this game.

"As long as I'm dealing with a Sui-ko (Water Tiger), I have enough power now."

While he was thinking, the Sui-ko (Water Tiger) also took action, and the monster took the lead in firing several water blades.

This attack is similar to a high-pressure water gun. If you are hit by a water blade, you will be seriously injured, if not lose a limb.

Baijie reacted immediately, rolling to the side to escape. The water blade also missed, cutting off several plum trees behind him.

At this moment, the Sui-ko (Water Tiger)'s shape became more and more transparent, and then disappeared completely as if it were invisible.

The Sui-ko (Water Tiger) has the ability to become invisible, and unlike the invisibility technique that obstructs cognition, this monster is invisible by means of optical camouflage.

"I knew you would use this trick."

Baijie pulled out a flashbang from his belt and threw it into the air. With a bang, it exploded, emitting a strong flash of light and sound from the air.

This is the "flashbang" developed by MissGehua using a technique, which uses various talismans and minerals full ofYang energy to stimulate the light.

The strong light emitted during the flash also has theYang energy of "breaking evil and revealing the truth". The moment the Sui-ko (Water Tiger) became transparent and invisible, its true form was revealed.

Baijie strengthened his arm strength with spiritual power and threw the spear in his hand.

The spear pierced through the Sui-ko (Water Tiger)'s body like lightning, but it was useless. The spearhead pierced into the slime-like monster. Because the body is water, it would not be injured.

"That's enough, at least it seals your invisibility."

Baijie drew out the short sword of theChunin and rushed forward desperately.

The Sui-ko (Water Tiger) fired several water blades, which he dodged, and several others were bounced off by the talismans on the ninja sword.

Baijie ran at full speed, and spiritual power erupted from the soles of his feet, accelerating his speed, rushing to the Sui-ko (Water Tiger) like lightning.

He did not swing his sword, but stretched out his left hand and slapped it **** the Sui-ko (Water Tiger)'s body.

No, to be precise, it was the Demon-Breaking Gauntlet.

In the next instant, the Sui-ko (Water Tiger) exploded like a bubble, and countless water splashes splattered in all directions.

"The Sui-ko (Water Tiger) does not have a substantial life. In essence, it is a mass of water condensed by supernatural power."

Baijie knew very well that the Sui-ko (Water Tiger) was more like an artificialShikigami. It is a life driven by "magic" or supernatural power close to a technique. In other words, it is a kind of spell-like existence itself.

"As long as you use the Demon-Breaking Gauntlet and use the Barrier of Curses Return, you can easily break this thing."

He muttered to himself.

On the other side, the Snow Hag Princess, seeing this scene, was also a little surprised.

"So easily defeated the Sui-ko (Water Tiger)?"

It seems that her assessment of him was still too low.

A hint of a smile was hidden at the corner of this Lake Master's mouth.

...

"Well done."

The Snow Hag Princess sent him into the treasure vault.

"Please choose three items from the treasure vault yourself~~ Hehe, your performance is better than I expected."

"What is the extra bonus that the Lake Master said?"

"I'll tell you when you come back."

The Lake Master showed a sly smile.

"Young man, you can keep looking forward to it."

...

"It's really mysterious? An extra bonus?"

Baijie passed through an old door covered with moss and came to a treasure vault filled with all kinds of treasures.

These are the treasures collected by the Dragon God Snow Hag Princess, including gold and silver treasures, pearls and agates, as well as luminous pearls, comma-shaped beads, jade, gemstone ornaments... one after another piled up into small mountains.

In addition, there are also famous swords, treasures, and armor collected by the Snow Hag, as well as various legendary cursed tools, spiritual objects, and scrolls sealing powerful forbidden techniques.

"However, these things are meaningless to me."

According to his experience in the game,Baijie found the two items he needed, which are "Tokijiku no Kaguno Ko" and " Shukuchi Ofuda".

"Finally, you can choose a third reward."

He thought for a while in his mind, and took out a colorful stone egg from the treasure vault.

This stone egg contains a strong essence. It is an unhatched egg, heavy in the hand, and wrapped in aShimenawa (sacred rope)... It is inconspicuous among the treasures, butBaijie knows the function of this thing.

"Baku (Dream Eater) Egg."

This egg seals a monster called "Baku (Dream Eater)". After hatching, this monster will become theShikigami of its master.

"This is a good thing. In the game, the protagonist used this egg to enter the dream ruins called 'Phantom Yamatai Country', and got a lot of good things from it."

AfterBaijie took out these three treasures, he returned from the old door covered with moss and returned to the tea room.

"Oh~~"

The Lake Master noticed the stone egg thatBaijie took out, and her eyes widened slightly.

"Kuku... you are good at picking things. I didn't expect you to take the initiative to choose that—"

"Yes."

Baijie bowed respectfully.

"Lake Master, these three items are enough for me."

"Granted."

The Snow Hag Princess said with a smile: "In addition, I also promised to give you an extra reward... Here, the thing is in this box."

She took out a small box and handed it over.

The box was sealed with a talisman, which was a completely incomprehensible spell.

Out of caution,Baijie quickly asked.

"Excuse me, can you tell me what is in the box?"

"Of course."

The Lake Master covered her mouth with her sleeves and laughed.

"The box contains my treasure, which is 'Mermaid Flesh'."

Baijie was stunned for a moment, or rather, he didn't react.

"...Mermaid Flesh... Could it be the kind that can make people immortal..."

"That's right."

The Snow Hag Princess sighed: "However, this is mermaid flesh that is about to lose its effect. Eating it will not make people immortal, especially for you. If it is the original mermaid flesh, then the power of immortality it contains, you can't fully absorb it, and after swallowing it, it will turn into a hideous monster."

She paused and looked at him with a serious look.

"Originally, mermaid flesh is actually a curse. To gain immortality, you have to pay a huge price. I deliberately removed this curse and only retained a part of the power. This power can make your body recover quickly after suffering any damage."

Of course, the Lake Master Snow Hag Princess added that because it is incomplete mermaid flesh, this recovery power is also limited. If the head is blown off or the heart is pierced with one blow,Baijie will still die.

However, as long as it is not an attack that kills with one blow, his body can slowly recover and heal.
