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

"You?"

Old Man Matsudaira was greatly surprised.

"Wait a moment, Hyakusuke… you can't just spout nonsense about this matter!"

"Matsudaira, don't interrupt."

Ichi Oni cut off the old man, his eyes narrowed.

"And you, kid… what's your background?"

"I am a Chunin from the Kurohime Mountain clan."

Hyakusuke said in a deep voice, "From my position, I shouldn't be interjecting, but as things stand, it's better to make a decision sooner rather than later."

"That makes sense."

Ichi Oni nodded, then looked at Yomei.

"So, what are your thoughts?"

"I… I've decided. Hyakusuke-dono is right. If Aniki thinks that way, then let's decide the next head of the family through a duel."

"That's good."

Ichi Oni nodded in satisfaction.

"Please wait."

Hyakusuke interjected again, "Ichi Oni-sama, you are a powerful exorcist, while Yomei-sama still lacks in spiritual power training. I think this duel should be as fair as possible… How about the two of you not compare spiritual power and magic, and purely compete in swordsmanship."

"Swordsmanship duel?"

Ichi Oni stroked his chin, closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, then nodded, "That's fine too~ Anyway, I won't lose."

Hearing these words, the girl's shoulders trembled, and she looked at Hyakusuke with pleading eyes.

'This is bad, even if it's purely swordsmanship… I, I can't win against Aniki… What should I do?'

"Don't worry."

Hyakusuke held her shoulder.

"Yomei-sama, I will help you find a way."

"But…"

She stood there, looking hesitant.

"It's alright, I have a plan."

His voice was full of determination.

Yomei turned her head, revealing a slightly surprised expression.

"However."

He coughed once, "I have a suggestion, can everyone pause for a moment and send Master Sando for treatment first."

Only then did everyone remember that the head priest of Gyo-on Temple had been paralyzed beside them, with a look on his face that said, "I can still be saved~", "Can you please stop talking and someone save me."

…

"Are you all alright?"

Hyakusuke took the time to check on his deputy, Tomosaka, and the accompanying Genin.

Fortunately, no one was injured. The Genin were lucky and did not encounter the hornet insect demons that invaded the barrier.

"We encountered several low-level insect demons. They weren't many, but they were quite strong… Several monks were killed along the way, and we couldn't stop it."

Tomosaka said that they were almost killed too, but a group of people in black suddenly appeared and rescued them and the monks.

I see, so it was "Yagyogyoshu" under Great Uncle's command, who are also spies of the Inkomemokikan agency.

Although Kukunochi Ichi Oni became one of the "Twelve Guardian Saints", his job nature is to be the head of the spies.

Earlier, when the insect demons invaded the temple, it was those spies called "Yagyogyoshu" who saved these Genin and monks.

After confirming that his subordinates were fine, Hyakusuke instructed them to help take care of the injured monks as well.

After that, he inspected the damaged barrier and found that the black-clothed "Yagyogyoshu" were repairing it.

"That's good, these people are professionals, they are the elite of the Imperial Court, and there are experts in barrier techniques among them, so we can leave it to them."

Hyakusuke went around and came to a large Buddhist hall in the temple.

Head Priest Sando was placed here to receive treatment from Karasawa Tomoe.

This acting head of the Karasawa family is a full-time talisman master, and talismans are a "universal type" of spell.

Regardless of one's own ability, various spells can be cast using talismans. Master Sando was covered in bandages and pain-relieving and hemostatic talismans from head to toe.

At this time, Tsukigayama Yomei, Old Man Matsudaira, Ayaka and others were also in the Buddhist hall, which had a simple barrier set up.

"Hyakusuke, you were too reckless just now… that suggestion is very disadvantageous to us."

Old Man Matsudaira said hurriedly when he saw him return, expressing the resentment in his heart.

"Kukunochi Ichi Oni's swordsmanship is not weak, although he is not an exorcist swordsman, he also has first-class swordsmanship skills."

"I know."

Hyakusuke nodded.

"The Kurohime Mountain family also has information about Ichi Oni-sama, after all, he is one of the Twelve Guardian Saints from Mutsu, and can be said to be a big figure in the Imperial Court. I know that he is good at using 'Incantation Magic', and his swordsmanship is also very strong… Also, the Kukunochi family has a special physique."

He glanced at Yoshika Ayaka, coughed a few times, and lowered his voice, "It is said that the ancestors of the Kukunochi family used demons and heteromorphic bloodlines to give birth to very powerful descendants. They can easily defeat ordinary monsters with just their extraordinary physique."

"There's nothing to be taboo about."

Karasawa Tomoe smiled, "It's just a method of mixing the blood of demons and monsters, and using various spells to strengthen descendants. Hehe, the ancestors of most of the contemporary exorcist families have tried this kind of method. It is said that some even sent women to demons to have children with monsters in order to obtain heteromorphic power."

"Aniki Ichi Oni has a superhuman physique, and is stronger than me even without using any techniques…"

Her eyes were a little dim.

"Although I am confident in my swordsmanship, his monstrous strength and swordsmanship can overwhelm me."

"It's alright."

Hyakusuke said lightly, "I never intended to win in a normal way. In order to win the family head's seat, we must be unscrupulous to achieve victory. Miss Tomoe, can I ask you to help? It wouldn't be beneficial to the Karasawa family for Ichi Oni-sama to become the family head, right?"

"Oh, what's your plan?"

Karasawa Tomoe asked curiously.

"Please have Miss Tomoe strengthen Yomei-sama with talismans from outside the arena."

"Eh? Hyakusuke Chunin, are you saying that I should help Yomei cheat?"

"That's right, it's cheating."

Hyakusuke nodded.

"My previous suggestion was just that Yomei-sama and Ichi Oni-sama cannot use spells and spiritual power when fighting, but it was never mentioned that outsiders cannot provide her with strengthening support."

He added, "As a full-time talisman master, Miss Tomoe should be proficient in various strengthening talismans. If there are any that can be used, please use them all on Yomei-sama."

The red-haired girl thought for a moment, then suddenly understood his idea and couldn't help but let out a mischievous laugh.

"Hahahaha… this is so interesting! Alright! I will help you…"

"But."

Old Man Matsudaira asked hesitantly, "Ichi Oni-sama is not stupid, if he finds out that the young master is using talismans to strengthen himself, he can also use magic…"

"Then he loses."

Hyakusuke said lightly, "Our proposal is that both sides cannot use magic themselves, but it was never mentioned that 'outsiders cannot provide support with talismans from outside the arena'. Also, as far as I know, Ichi Oni-sama can only use the Kukunochi family's 'Incantation Magic', this magic is very powerful, but it also has a flaw."

"The flaw is… Aniki must make a sound to activate the spell."

Ayaka suddenly opened her mouth, "Incantation Magic is a high-level Kotodama, but in the end, it is still Kotodama, as long as he opens his mouth to activate the Kotodama, everyone can hear it."

Kotodama is a very ordinary spell.

Its essence is the spell that produces effects with words.

Among the exorcists, those who are proficient in this way can scare ordinary people with a loud shout, or stop a monster's movement by shouting "Stop".

Incantation Magic is a spell that the Kukunochi family has specially researched and achieved results. Its specific method is to hide spell tools and items engraved with "characters" on the body, throw them out during battle, and then loudly recite the "character" to activate its effect.

A spell tool engraved with the character "Fire" will produce flames; engraving the character "Explosion" will cause an explosion.

Ichi Oni's fighting method is to use a special treasure sword, that sword is called the Sword of Incantation, with the eight characters "Life and Death are Illusory, Impermanent, Swift and Fierce" engraved on the blade.

Each character, when recited individually, can produce different effects. For example, reciting the character "Life" can produce a healing effect; reciting the character "Constant" can create barriers; the character "Swift" can increase one's speed several times…

'In addition, Ichi Oni also carries a large string of prayer beads engraved with different characters… These prayer beads can also arbitrarily produce different magical effects.'

Hyakusuke recalled Kukunochi Ichi Oni's fighting style. The opponent is actually a unit that mainly attacks with magic, but because his panel values are high, his individual swordsmanship is also very strong, and with many auxiliary means, it would be troublesome to become an enemy in the game.

"Conversely… talismans can be hidden on the body. Yomei-sama sticks the strengthening talismans inside her clothes. After activation, the talismans can self-destruct, and there will be no evidence even if investigated afterward."

The corners of Hyakusuke's mouth raised slightly, "Ichi Oni-sama can question us for cheating, but he will not obtain substantial evidence, which means that this is a battle where only our side can cheat and the other side cannot cheat."

…

"It really turned into a woman… Yomei, that child…"

Although he showed a cold appearance in front of outsiders, Kukunochi Ichi Oni was greatly shocked inside when he saw his younger brother.

"I thought that information was just a joke, a prank…"

As one of the supervisors of the Inkomemokikan agency, the responsibility that Ichi Oni takes on, or rather, the work entrusted to him by the Imperial Court, is to monitor the movements of the famous exorcist families in the East Country to prevent them from rebelling.

Naturally, he often receives some secret information, which includes what happened in the "Spider's Nest of Calamity".

"Feminization… what kind of strange curse is this?"

In order to get rid of his wavering heart, Kukunochi Ichi Oni sat down outside the veranda.

"Washizu-sama, no, what expression would Father make if he knew about this…?"

After all, he is the kind of man with a cheerful personality, who is carefree and accepts any trouble without reservation, he would only laugh and accept the changes in his own child.

"Anyway, no matter what, he is my son, no—" that man would not be able to help but laugh out loud, and then find a chance to make fun of Yomei.

"Now I have to call her daughter… Hahahaha!"

Kukunochi Ichi Oni shook his head, he could almost imagine his adoptive father's attitude, and he could still hear the other party's laughter in his ears.

That cheerful man would definitely laugh and say "Turning into a woman suits you quite well~~", "As expected of someone who inherited the good blood of me and your mother", "Quite pretty…"

"Idiot old man, don't make fun of me about this!"

Yomei would complain with puffed cheeks.

"But it will be difficult to marry a wife next, or should we start recruiting sons-in-law in the future."

Washizu would continue to tease his son until he really made Yomei angry.

Then, the two would argue incessantly.

At the same time, Ayaka, who was standing on the side, dumbfounded as she watched the father-son comedy, could only look at herself expectantly, hoping that she would come to the rescue.

—Of course, this is an imagination of the past.

Ichi Oni knew that the previous life would never return.

However, he always missed the life in the Tsukigayama family, and remembered the kindness of his adoptive father and the Tsukigayama clan in his heart.

"That's why—"

It is necessary for him to be a "villain".

Yomei, forgive me for not being able to tell you the truth, after all, all of this is too cruel.

Becoming the family head is not necessarily a good thing.

So, I can only try to stop you.

Conversely, even if you can't become the family head, can't become an exorcist, it's not a bad thing for you.

Even if you become a woman, there's nothing wrong with living as a woman… after all, you are someone who has hated fighting since childhood, doesn't like to fight with others, and doesn't like bloodshed.

Ichi Oni felt that if it was for the future happiness of his younger brother and sisters, even using coercive means to let them leave this "vortex" would be a good thing.

"Unless."

Ichi Oni drew the Sword of Incantation from its scabbard.

"Yomei, if you have really made up your mind, harboring the idea of being able to use any means to achieve victory, then at that time, I will—"
