Chapter 182
Today, I continued to exchange constructive ideas with Author Yu Eunha regarding the Sins.
“Yes. Things might go better than expected, and a Heroine might end up dying.”
“Hmm. Perhaps it’s best to just capture them all beforehand.”
“That wouldn’t be so bad, would it?”
Honestly, I’d like to capture them all, but they’re hard to find.
If I take out Johanna and Cale, the other Sins will go into hiding.
They’re weaker than me, so it wouldn’t matter if they ran, but I’m worried about what schemes they might cook up behind my back.
“It’s probably best to keep making the Heroines my allies, just like before.”
That’s Siwoo’s role, but since he can’t do it, I have to work hard. Let’s work even harder at Scissoring.
Xue Li said she’d be here soon, too.
“Yes. And this Japan episode is a bit strange.”
“The Shinsengumi and the Right-wingers?”
I’ve been thinking the same thing.
“Yes. The Shinsengumi and Right-wing forces have clashed several times in Kyoto. Some of Shinohara’s Shinsengumi are protecting the Emperor of Japan.”
I know that.
And it’s a stretch to call it 'protecting'.
“Hmm. Honestly, it’s 'protecting' in name only.”
“Yes. They’re trying to prevent the Right-wing forces from rallying around the Emperor. Even if it’s just a formality, he’s still Japan’s monarch.”
If the Right-wing forces secure the Emperor of Japan and claim Shinohara has rebelled against him, Shinohara will inevitably be branded a rebel.
Even if the Citizenry supports Shinohara, and even if the Emperor of Japan declared himself human after World War II, his symbolism cannot be ignored.
The problem is, it’s insane.
Japan’s military power, the Hunters, is all under Shinohara. Even if the Right-wing forces secure the Emperor of Japan, they’re bound to lose in a civil war.
Well, if they had any sense, they wouldn’t even consider being Right-wingers.
But the Prime Minister behind them is mad with power and instigating the Right-wingers, which makes it an even bigger problem.
“Wait, if the provocations are worse than in the original story…”
“Then the Prime Minister must have something he’s relying on.”
For that Idiot/Fool to provoke Shinohara when he could be killed at any moment clearly means he has some kind of Backer / Patron.
“The only one the Prime Minister could have as a backer / patron right now is…”
Wouldn’t it be right to say there’s almost no one?
Then who could it be? Did it appear due to causality?
“What the Prime Minister desperately needs right now is a powerful Army to contend with Shinohara’s numerous Hunters and Shinsengumi. Raising the Self-Defense Forces is out of the question. If he had any sense, he wouldn’t consider Zhang Xueti’s Public Security Hunters from China, so it must be the Sins.”
Shinohara’s Shinsengumi and Hunters are strong. Even if dozens of newly trained Public Security Hunters from China were thrown at them, they would probably be crushed instantly.
“What’s the probability of a country like the United States intervening as a variable?”
“You should consider it almost zero.”
Indeed, the United States wouldn’t meddle with Japan.
Especially since empowering Right-wing forces to keep Korea in check makes even less sense.
Korean and Japanese Magic Engineering Companies have already made significant inroads into the United States, and even if they are not as extensive as before the Great Cataclysm, the United States wants Korea-Japan to hold China in East Asia.
“The only one who could provide an Army is…”
“Cale, probably.”
“Hmm. Cale.”
“What will you do? Can’t you use Johanna to break Cale?”
That’s true. But still.
“Honestly, I’m a Woman, aren’t I?”
“Yes. You are a True Crazy Psycho Lesbian, a strange Yongyong-i Female mixed with Male traits.”
Hmph, such praise makes Yongyong-i too shy. Anyway, I can’t hold back this time.
Shinohara Yuzuki is subtly trying to sway me.
She’s trying to play with me with that audacious body of hers.
I can’t help it; having bedded countless Pet/Bitches during my office worker days, I wanted to try a Japanese Woman too.
It was a kind of goal.
Now that a Japanese Person Heroine in this world is tempting me, my tail is really bulging.
“Honestly, Yuzuki teases me a bit, too, you know? To make her truly fall for me, I need to try something new.”
Yongyong-i never gives up control.
Sometimes I might let myself be taken, but the conquest is my job, not the Heroine’s.
So, Yuzuki won’t be conquering me; I’ll be conquering Yuzuki.
“What is it?”
“I’ll deliberately let this incident blow up, and when Yuzuki is confused, I’ll step in to help.”
I’ll just let things play out as they are.
Then, when it eventually explodes, I’ll step in and say, “Oh! Princess Yuzuki, I shall save you!” That’s how I’ll do it.
I can already picture Yuzuki, wet and clinging to me.
I’m excited too. My down there feels wet already.
“So you’ll fill up her affection meter that way?”
“Yep.”
Author Yu Eunha’s face twisted into a funny expression at my words.
“Oh dear. Yes. You’re truly something. So, to get Yuzuki, you’ll let Japan experience a certain degree of crisis?”
“I’m not creating it.”
The Prime Minister is creating the crisis, not me.
Do I even need to help in the first place? No.
I’m not a Charity Work Yongyong-i.
If the Sins don’t bother me, there’s no reason for me to needlessly attack them.
To move someone like me, a tribute must be offered.
And that tribute will be Shinohara Yuzuki herself.
“What about the Apostles? Ha Jeongseok recommended you as a candidate, didn’t he?”
“Should I?”
It’s not like I can just do it immediately.
“One of the Sins, Wrath, is there, though.”
Hmm, the Sin of Wrath is an Apostle.
While it might be good to join as an Apostle and interfere with Wrath’s actions, honestly, it’s a hassle.
The Apostles are truly just a useless organization that only holds meetings.
They occasionally debate whether to intervene when a fight breaks out somewhere, but they’re an absolutely Neutral Organization, so they never participate in wars.
That’s why the Korean Apostle didn’t even participate in the Korea-China War.
“There are Women among the Apostles, to be sure. But it’s a bit bothersome.”
I don’t want to be an Apostle and be restricted in many ways.
The only thing an Apostle gains is, at best, the title of the world’s strongest Hunter Group.
They’re often compared to UN Forces, but they only get involved in situations truly deemed a global crisis.
It’s obviously just an organization of Old Farts whose purpose is unknown.
“Well, I called you to warn you.”
“And the liquefaction of demonic energy?”
“Yes. Well.”
“Then I’ll be going now.”
I went to bed and tried to sleep.
It seems I had a decent harvest this time too.

Shinohara Castle
Recently, Shinohara Yuzuki had been diligently practicing Fingering using the Shinsengumi to conquer Yu Eunha.
But today, one of the Shinsengumi Subordinates (Female) who had been indulging in her Fingering was clinging to her.
“Hee-eung. Heuk. M-Master. Me♥”
Her completely dazed appearance made her seem utterly useless.
Why was she like this?
It was quite ridiculous to see a calm-looking Woman, who usually suited a neat bob, clinging to her like this.
On the one hand, she was also angry.
Looking at that face, she seemed to be begging for more.
The Shinsengumi were Vassals whose role was to protect Shinohara’s House Head, and beings to be used as she pleased. So, House Head Shinohara Yuzuki herself only indulged to the extent she considered it 'play'. If the Shinsengumi tried to go beyond that, it would be seen as insubordination or disrespect towards their Master.
She really sighed.
“Stop it. Your duty is to assist me. I didn’t keep you around to satisfy you. Where’s your Lover?”
She definitely had a Lover, but was she abandoning her Lover to cling to her Master like this?
If she was so desperate for her Master’s fingers that she didn’t even recognize her own Master, how little attention must she have been giving her Lover?
“W-Well. Th-That is…”
“Did something happen?”
“I am very sorry to say, but…”
The Shinsengumi Woman bowed her head deeply.
Did she perhaps die?
That couldn’t be. The Shinsengumi wouldn’t lose to people like the Self-Defense Forces, who barely even have Hunter-level power.
“Speak. I dislike suspense even more.”
“Minori has been masturbating while thinking of House Head… and now Minori and I… if it’s not House Head’s fingers…”
“…”
Shinohara Yuzuki was speechless.
Were there really such Idiot/Fool Girls? But Shinohara Yuzuki was a woman who knew how to take care of her vassals.
Hadn’t the Shinsengumi been unable to sleep properly lately because of the Right-wingers?
She could specially comfort them as their House Head.
“O-Our couple’s relationship is already ruined because of House Head! If you don’t… I will expose Lady Yuzuki’s sexual preference all over Social Media, and I will commit seppuku right here!”
Oh-ho. A threat. Had she completely lost her mind?
Quite brave. Yes. Honestly, what can you do? It’s all talent. She’d even practiced some things to use on Yu Eunha someday.
Yuzuki kicked the belly of the woman clinging to her feet.
Thwack!
“Gah!”
The Shinsengumi Woman, who tumbled a few times, trembled softly and smoothly.
When looked at closely, her face was drenched in pleasure.
Yuzuki sighed and grabbed the Woman by her hair, pulling her up.
“I can always find another Bitch like you. But given such a desperate situation, as your Master, I can’t help but comfort you.”
“T-Then!”
Seeing the hope in her eyes was amusing. Yuzuki let go of the woman’s hair.
“Spread 'em.”
“Y-Yes, House Head!”
The Shinsengumi Woman flipped over like a frog and spread her legs.
“Of course, I never said a single word about using my fingers.”
“Eh? W-Wait, H-House Head!”
Yuzuki took a wooden sword and thrust it into the Shinsengumi Woman’s precious hole.
Squish!
After thrusting a few times, she teased her appropriately with her fingers, and the Shinsengumi Woman sprayed juice and collapsed in climax right there.
“Heek. Heek.”
Seeing the Woman trembling and coming, Yuzuki’s interest waned. Yuzuki looked for something suitable to wipe the splashed vaginal fluid from her hand and then found an autograph she had received from Baekhwa some time ago.
“Come to think of it, it’s been a long time since I saw Baekhwa.”
They weren’t friends or anything, but Baekhwa was still the one who used her overwhelming power to beat down enemies.
She’s not the kind of person to just disappear like this, even if she handed her position over to Yu Eunha.
Baekhwa TV occasionally reports news, but Baekhwa herself hasn’t appeared directly. They say she was injured after the war, but she’s not the type to be incapacitated by an injury.
“Huh? Looking closely at this…”
Shinohara Yuzuki found Baekhwa’s autograph familiar.
Baekhwa’s autograph was similar to Yu Eunha’s handwriting when she wrote down the Saengdos' names to enter the Glass Dungeon.
No way, it can’t be. No, now that I think about it, their facial features might be a little similar.
Something really smells fishy.
Shinohara Yuzuki compared Yu Eunha’s handwriting with Baekhwa’s autograph.
They were indeed similar. It wasn’t just a coincidence. The characters 'hwa' and 'ha' in 'Baekhwa' and 'Yu Eunha' looked too similar.
She compared Baekhwa’s photo with Yu Eunha’s photo.
Every single detail, from their faces to their bodies, was compared.
At Shinohara, there was special training that could instantly recognize Camouflage Tactics. So, she could usually tell who was behind any ordinary Disguise.
Their bodies and hair are definitely similar.
If their tendencies were also similar, wouldn’t they be even more alike?
Even their slight Yuri Tendency was similar.
Come to think of it, Baekhwa was also caught on camera kissing Fire Bat.
Yuzuki compared the kissing scene with Fire Bat from an old Baekhwa TV broadcast recording with Yu Eunha’s recent kiss with Rosaria.
“Ah. Hahahaha. Haha. Wow, Yu Eunha. She’s a truly terrifying woman.”
To think she was a Mutant, had several Unique Abilities, and led an organization of hundreds of thousands, as Baekhwa, no less.
Is there really such a terrifying woman?
To deceive people so perfectly.
If I use this well, couldn’t I even blackmail her?
Yuzuki, who had been thinking quietly, shook her head.
As someone holding the power of a nation, she couldn’t use such a petty method just to get Yu Eunha. But her interest was greater than before.
Somehow, she had to form a relationship with her as Yuzuki, not Shinohara Kotone.
“Mariko, I need to prepare to go to Korea. Prepare the Portal.”
“Yes, House Head.”
Yuzuki gave the order to Mariko, who was in the shadows, and prepared to go to Korea.
