Zongman I fight weirdness in everyday world

"It should be one of the heirs of the Shinomiyas, Kaguya Shinomiya's older brother, Yungo Shinomiya."

"This guy's words…"

Yukino Yukinoshita frowned, feeling that Yungo Shinomiya's words were somewhat outrageous, but upon closer inspection, she couldn't find a reason to refute them.

He did emphasize that those who possess the Shinomiya surname are superior to ordinary people, similar to a feudal aristocracy. However, he also emphasized that as an heir of the Shinomiya family, one must be more outstanding than ordinary people to shoulder the heavy responsibility of leading others forward.

In short…

What's the difference between Yungo Shinomiya's ideas and Yukino Yukinoshita's initial ones?

It's just that one's words are sharper, while the other wants to use her own strength to help those who cannot solve their problems on their own.

"Help."

The word itself establishes a relationship where the helper is in a more capable and superior position compared to the one being helped.

In other words, if Yukino Yukinoshita herself weren't so perfect, would she have even conceived the idea of using her power to help others?

Even she herself cannot find the answer to this question.

"Possessing the Shinomiya surname, being the eldest daughter of the Shinomiya family, but also my father's illegitimate child…"

Kaguya Shinomiya's voice was very calm, as if stating something obvious.

"I must be more outstanding than anyone else, I must be above everyone else, to prove my worth."

When Yukino Yukinoshita finally turned the doorknob and opened the door, she discovered that it wasn't the Shuchiin Academy's student council office inside, but a room that couldn't be seen from the outside, covering an area of several hundred square meters.

And Kaguya Shinomiya was standing in a golden birdcage, holding a long sword that emitted a crimson aura. Her red eyes were filled with indifference as she scanned the three people in front of her. Finally, her gaze settled on Yoru Hoshi's black mask, and she slowly raised the long sword in her hand, saying softly.

"'Mask,' this power should not be possessed by you. This power should belong to me. Only I can lead everyone, because I… possess the Shinomiya family name."

It was not until this moment that Yukino Yukinoshita and Rio Futaba, who had once been in charge of diagnosing Kaguya Shinomiya's adolescent syndrome, finally realized something.

The other party's psychological problems…

Were much more serious than they had originally anticipated.

On one side, there was the aloofness of the people around her, who thought she was like a creepy Japanese doll, the kind of loneliness and sadness that no one dared to approach.

On the other side, there was the desire to be recognized by the other heirs of the Shinomiya family, including her father, Yangan Shinomiya, as someone worthy of the Shinomiya surname because of her status as an illegitimate child.

These two strong emotions, which can be said to be completely opposite, were enough to distort Kaguya Shinomiya's heart.

"Shinomiya-san… No… Kaguya, you…"

Rio Futaba scanned the large room, seeing a blurry ball of light behind the golden birdcage that resembled a seat, floating there quietly.

"Is that… your desire…?"

"You've noticed it, Futaba-san."

The door of the golden birdcage slowly opened, and as Kaguya Shinomiya slowly walked out, her body surface was covered with a layer of spiritual armor. She raised the tip of the sword in her hand and pointed it at Rio Futaba, who was standing there dressed as a 'Bone Woman,' and said in a calm tone.

"Do you want to attack my weakness? A wise choice, but unfortunately, you cannot reach it."

"Kaguya…"

Rio Futaba noticed that Kaguya Shinomiya's performance was not like the 'Palace' masters who had appeared before, whose minds were occupied by strong and distorted desires. Instead, she was abnormally rational and devoid of emotional fluctuations, and she couldn't help but clench her teeth and ask.

"Why… why are you doing this…?"

"Why?"

Kaguya Shinomiya waved the long sword in her hand and walked step by step towards the place where Rio Futaba and others were standing, saying in a calm tone.

"Becoming the strongest above everyone else, this is the fate of the Shinomiya family."

Hearing this, Yoru Hoshi couldn't help but complain.

"What a chuuni line… If I didn't know better, I'd think you were Kaguya Otsutsuki."

"Chuuni?"

Kaguya Shinomiya didn't seem to understand the word, and a look of doubt appeared in her eyes, but she didn't dwell on it too much, and just said softly.

"Any event in life is a struggle where you die and I live. There are winners, and there must be losers. I just want to become… no, I must become the winner, that's all."

Speaking of this, Kaguya Shinomiya paused for a moment, and the crimson long sword in her hand suddenly emitted a blood-mist-like light, and a strong killing intent also appeared in her red eyes.

"The simplest and most direct way is to take the lives of enemies. If the enemies die and I am still alive, that is an undeniable victory, so…"

"I will kill everyone in Shuchiin Academy, including you, and become the only winner."

Hearing this, Rio Futaba frowned, and the Bone Woman wearing a kimono appeared behind her, and sharp bone spurs, glistening with a cold light, gradually extended out.

"If you can do it, then try it."

"Wait a minute."

Seeing that Rio Futaba was about to fight Kaguya Shinomiya, Yukino Yukinoshita quickly stopped her. After all, this Kaguya Shinomiya was just a phantom in the heart of the real Kaguya Shinomiya. Even if she was destroyed many times, she would only be resurrected, which was meaningless. Moreover, their original goal this time was not to destroy Kaguya Shinomiya.

"Kaguya…"

Yukino Yukinoshita raised her head, looked at Kaguya Shinomiya standing there, and slowly opened her mouth.

"Killing everyone in this academy, does that… include Ai Hayasaka and Chika Fujiwara?"

The moment she heard these two names, Kaguya Shinomiya's figure became somewhat blurred, and the treasure representing her desire slowly changed from an object like the student council president's chair to a red thread, just like the red ribbon that Ai Hayasaka gave her and tied for her.

"I…"

"Indeed, talent can hurt others. You cannot understand the idea of 'can't do,' and those who can't do will hate you for it."

Speaking of this, Yukino Yukinoshita changed the subject.

“But similarly, there will also be people who can understand you. 'Understanding' and 'talent'... don't necessarily have a connection. I know this because I have a good friend who's an idiot.”

At the same time, in the courtyard of Private Shuchiin Academy.

“Achhoo!”

Yukina Ogiso and Yui Yuigahama sneezed simultaneously. They looked at each other, Yui Yuigahama with a thoughtful expression.

“Why do I feel like… someone is calling me an idiot?”

Yukina Ogiso nodded, deeply agreeing.

“I feel it too.”

“Is Yukino talking about me?”

“Is Kazusa talking about me?”

Yukina Ogiso and Kazusa Touma, Yui Yuigahama and Yukino Yukinoshita, these two pairs are classic combinations of genius dark-haired beauties and outgoing, ditzy beauties.

…

Yukinoshita Yukino's words clearly caused Siguoya Kaguya's heart to waver, as could be heard from the surrounding voices.

“Are you Kaguya Shinomiya? I'm Chika Fujiwara. From now on, we're good friends.”

“Miss Kaguya, I will do my best to protect you always.”

The voices of Ai Hayasaka and Chika Fujiwara sounded, representing that at this time, Kaguya Shinomiya was recalling things related to those two.

Seeing this, Yukino Yukinoshita pursed her lips, her expression and eyes appearing a bit awkward, but in the end, she still said the words that, according to her personality, she would not easily say.

“Kaguya… you… are also my friend.”

“Yukinoshita-san…”

Kaguya Shinomiya's red eyes trembled, and that indifferent and ruthless look finally disappeared, replaced by the Kaguya Shinomiya that Yukinoshita Yukino was familiar with, who had become more and more like an ordinary girl after this period of time.

And when her gaze swept towards him, the black mask on Yesheng's face and the black coat he was wearing dissipated into black flames, and with his usual relaxed smile, he shrugged and spread his hands.

“Don't look at me, I'm not your friend, and I don't want to develop a purely friendly relationship with you.”

“I… I…”

As Kaguya Shinomiya hesitated, voices sounded again from the surroundings, but this time it was Yesheng's voice.

“My visit to your Private Shuchiin Academy is for guidance.”

“Shinomiya-san, have you played NTR Dojo?”

“The taste of failure is very bitter, but only by accepting one's own failure can one truly become strong.”

“Go become the student council president, I will help you.”

“Kaguya Shinomiya, I like you.”

Hearing the last sentence, and seeing the slightly shocked gazes of Rio Futaba and Yukino Yukinoshita, Yesheng explained speechlessly.

“I said the first four sentences, but I didn't say the last sentence. That's Kaguya's own fantasy, haha.”

“Really didn't say it?”

“Didn't say it, but maybe I will in the future.”

“Maybe? I think it's certain.”

Listening to Rio Futaba and Yesheng's banter, Yukino Yukinoshita was pondering a question.

What kind of game is NTR Dojo?

And after these few words were spoken, Kaguya Shinomiya's gaze remained on Yesheng's profile as he talked with Rio Futaba. In the “Palace,” a sentence suddenly resounded, spoken softly by Kaguya Shinomiya, to everyone who could remain conscious, including those in the courtyard and all those involved in this incident who were guarding against the attacks of the inner world's evil spirits at the school gate of Shuchiin.

“My gaze can no longer be taken away from his profile.”

Hearing this sentence, everyone was dumbfounded.

Good heavens, what is this operation?

As expected of the eldest daughter of the Shinomiya family, can even confessions be played with in this way?

SERN originally intended to use the distortion hidden in Kaguya Shinomiya's heart to create a dilemma choice for “Mask”.

As a result… Miss Kaguya, used the “Palace” that symbolizes her true heart, to confess her love?

And in that spacious student council office, a red ribbon slowly floated to Kaguya Shinomiya's side.

“Yesheng-san…”

Kaguya Shinomiya raised her hand, looked at the red ribbon falling into her palm, and said softly with a slightly flushed face.

“Can you help me tie my hair?”

“Okay.”

As the god of harems, Yesheng not only mastered the skill of helping girls wear kimonos, but also tying hair was something he could do with ease.

After the hair was tied, Kaguya Shinomiya looked at his face, her eyes flickering, and raised her hand to gently cover Yesheng's cheek, murmuring.

“I… I don't want to lose to anyone, but if it's you… it doesn't matter if I lose once more…”

When she said this sentence, the butterfly knot tied with a red ribbon on Kaguya Shinomiya's black hair suddenly began to tremble, and although it was a soft ribbon, cracks appeared.

“This is…”

Rio Futaba's expression changed, and she lowered her voice to Yukino Yukinoshita beside her.

“Kaguya Shinomiya… is actively destroying her own desires…”

As Rio Futaba's voice fell, the entire Private Shuchiin Academy began to tremble non-stop as if an earthquake had occurred, and the chandeliers on the ceiling swayed, making crisp collision sounds.

Hearing this, Yukino Yukinoshita also looked anxious and quickly asked.

“After destroying her desires, can she return to normal?”

“I'm afraid not.”

Rio Futaba looked at Kaguya Shinomiya, who was standing in front of Yesheng with tenderness and reluctance in her eyes, and sighed heavily.

“Desires being destroyed… and being swallowed by our Soul Avatar, is the same result. The soul becomes fragments, and the body naturally cannot continue to survive. In the end… did we still reach this step…”

“Goodbye, Yesheng…”

Kaguya Shinomiya stood on tiptoe and gently kissed Yesheng's cheek, a bitter meaning appearing in her smile.

“If I was just Kaguya… and not Kaguya Shinomiya… how wonderful would that be…”

“That's it?”

At this moment when Rio Futaba and Yukino Yukinoshita were both saddened, Yesheng curled his lips, smiled lightly, shook his head, and teased.

“I thought your farewell would be something like a French kiss, but unexpectedly, it's just a kiss on the cheek? I was expecting too much.”
