Chapter 189
I shouldn’t just sleep with anyone. Until now, I’d maintained my own sense of ethics.
I’d only shared a mother-daughter bond with Magnute.
“Why is she dressed like that?”
“Because it’s a kimono? I don’t know. Maybe it has something to do with Yuzuki.”
Considering how the Shinsengumi of Shinohara have fallen in love with Yuzuki, it’s plausible. If I were to roughly sketch out a scenario, Yuzuki might have prepared all this to get me.
Her provoking me, for instance. Considering that the original Shinohara Yuzuki wasn’t a Lesbian, she must have diligently messed around with the Shinsengumi to possess me, and as a result, she acquired the God-Finger with absolute confidence.
“Doesn’t a woman who treats people normally, but goes commando, imply she’s willing to open up when she wants to?”
Just as I was holding back, Choi Siwoo said something outrageous. Well, that changes things. Should I call her over and strip her?
“Don’t some tribes offer their wife to guests for a night?”
Right. I think I’ve heard something like that.
Shinohara Yuzuki said I could order any of Shinohara’s women to do anything.
In that case, what if I laid Mariko naked on a table, piled seafood on her belly and breasts, and ate it?
Covering her pussy with seashells would be perfect.
“So Mariko’s exactly that type, then. Right at the dinner table.” “Where did the Yongyong-i who was just scolded go?”
Reina’s horns grew again. As expected of a woman, she doesn’t take things like this lightly. What’s the big deal about a mom and daughter sharing a little love! But Reina moved her hands as if she was about to pull out my tail, so I got scared and had to tuck it in.
“I’m sorry.”
I won’t act up again.
And so, breakfast began.
We were all dressed in kimonos.
The intention was to get into the mood of being in Japan.
I don’t know what people would say if I showed this on Social Media.
Especially with Anti-Japanese Public Opinion rising again, someone might ask, “At a time like this?”
But the food was truly delicious.
The chashu felt like it was melting in my mouth.
The noodles had a firm texture that suited my taste, and the broth was delicious too.
“The meat is tender and the broth is rich; it’s great. This ramen is the best.”
“Are these truly the chefs of Japan’s foremost Family?”
“This is delicious!”
Everyone was Responsive. My palate used to be unrefined, but this felt like a real treat. In Songdo, Rachel ate rice every day. Not that it wasn’t tasty, sometimes this kind of meal was nice too.
“But what’s Yuzuki doing? She’s nowhere to be seen.”
Han Suji spoke up. You’re right. Even in the original story, when Choi Siwoo and his group visited Japan, Yuzuki ate breakfast with them every morning. Does that mean the situation in Japan is currently very urgent?
“Well, there was a terror attack. As a Leader, she probably had something to say to the Citizens or called her Vassals for a discussion, didn’t she?”
“Right. Unlike us, Yuzuki has to manage Throughout Japan.”
Just then, a presence was felt outside, and Shinohara Yuzuki entered the room. She looked a little tired. She probably had a lot to do all night. But I couldn’t take my eyes off her. The black kimono with cherry blossoms and the haori suited her well.
“I apologize. I was late because of a Vassal meeting early this morning.”
“No problem. But do we not need to meet the Prime Minister?”
Still, as the Baekhwa Cult Leader, shouldn’t I meet the Prime Minister, who is a Figurehead? Isn’t that international custom? Or does she really just intend to use him as a Figurehead?
“Yes. The Prime Minister is merely a Figurehead anyway.”
“Hmm, is it perhaps because we’re Villains?”
I knew that wasn’t it, but when I asked to tease her, Shinohara Yuzuki replied seriously.
“No, Villains? The Japanese people and our Shinohara see the Baekhwa Cult as a Righteous Army Organization that fought for Korea. Commander Yu Eunha is originally a Hunter, and aren’t all of you here Saengdo from Hanseong?”
I’m glad they think that way. Treating us as Villains would cause too many problems from the start.
“Then that’s a relief.”
That must be the truth. If they really treated us as villains, Shinohara Yuzuki, who is trying to build a friendship with a villain from Korea, would be quite politically unstable.
“Furthermore, the Prime Minister currently has criminal charges against him, so I, the House Head of Shinohara, will from now on personally accompany Miss Yu Eunha. Is that inconvenient for you?”
Criminal charges? Shinohara is trying to remove the Prime Minister. This is also a bit different from the original story. She’s probably trying to bring down the Prime Minister first, who could be considered the mastermind behind this incident. Next, the Self-Defense Forces? The Self-Defense Forces are, after all, just a military organization for the right-wingers now. In reality, the Self-Defense Forces do nothing. If Shinohara is to survive, there’s no other choice. However, it’s happening much faster than in the original story. That must mean she can’t tolerate the right-wing forces any longer. As expected, the Sin of Sloth was behind it. I had no intention of meeting the Prime Minister either. That pervert monkey is even worse than Ha Jeongseok.
“Rather than that old monkey, a Young Lady like you is certainly more pleasing to the eye, wouldn’t you agree?”
“I agree.”
Yuzuki smiled sweetly.
She’s so lovely, I want to lick her.
I want to Jjigeokjjigeok her.
“Ah, and I have a request.”
“What is it?”
“It’s for political reasons. It’s just that…”
Her request was for me to hold her hand directly in front of the Reporters and cameras. It meant she wanted to show that Shinohara and the Baekhwa Cult had a good relationship. By showing that the Baekhwa Cult recognized the Shinohara Family as the Japanese Government, it would help suppress the Prime Minister and the Right-wing forces, even if just a little. More than anything, it would be best if ‘Yu Eunha’ acknowledged it. Yu Eunha, younger sister of the First Divine Sword Yu Jinseok, Hero of the Korea-China War, and the Baekhwa Cult Leader recognized by Baekhwa - these titles alone were enough.
Alright, why not?
The Press Conference took place around noon. Reina said she was going to Songdo for a bit, so I sent the others along with her and decided to go to the interview alone. Shinohara Yuzuki stood with me in front of the Reporters who had requested an interview. Yuzuki seemed to have already exchanged some unspoken signals, as the Reporters' questions mostly came my way.
“Miss Yu Eunha, Hero of the Korea-China War, is it true that you have a close relationship with the Shinohara House Head?” “Yes. I’ve had a personal friendship with the Shinohara House Head for some time, and we were able to deepen that bond when she visited Korea last time.”
It wasn’t a lie. The only problem was that Shinohara Yuzuki was actually Shinohara Kotone.
“What do you think about yesterday’s terror attack? I understand that Anti-Japanese public opinion is rising again in Korea right now!”
Honestly, I don’t care about the current public opinion, nor can I do anything about it.
Anyway, even if there’s some anti-Japanese sentiment now, it won’t escalate significantly. In the world where I was an office worker, there were historical and Territorial Disputes, but here, it’s all over. It’ll just flare up for a moment and then die down.
And that’s Shinohara Yuzuki’s problem to deal with; I just need to get the Heroines, so it’s none of my business.
Still, it’s good to be polite, right?
“I understand that the terror attacks were happening even before we arrived. While we don’t die from mere terror, I don’t believe Japan harbors Anti-Korean Sentiment just because of one attack. Anti-Japanese Public Opinion will soon subside.”
I replied with a smile. At my words, the Japanese Reporters nodded, diligently scribbling notes or taking pictures. Go on. Take all the pictures you want. When else in this era will you get to see a beautiful woman like me up close?
“That’s right. Hunter Yu Eunha and I have a deep friendship. In the future, the Shinohara Government and the Korean Government, including the Baekhwa Cult Autonomous Region, will become allies.”
Following my words, Yuzuki also said the same.
Right. My pussy will also become an Ally.
This means becoming Allies, rubbing and rubbing again when needed. Perfect.
“House Head, I have a question. What are your plans for the Right-wing forces?” “Hmm. We will no longer tolerate Acts of Terror. Shinohara has ordered its subordinate Guilds to kill any Right-wing forces on sight. Japanese people, please trust our Shinohara. And if you ever spot anyone appearing to be a Right-wing force, report him or her. The Shinohara 'Government' will provide ample compensation to its Citizens.”
Yuzuki referred to Shinohara as the 'Government'. It meant she intended to completely dominate Japan. With that, the interview concluded. After the interview, Shinohara Yuzuki took me to her room.
“I think I did well today, don’t you?” “Yes. You worked hard. Please stay as long as you wish. But what about the others?” “Ah, they said they were going to Songdo for a short visit.”
I sent Reina and the other Heroines to Rachel for a while. First, I needed to show my face to Rachel and Ray, and most importantly, I had to be alone to get Yuzuki.
“Is that possible?”
“The Baekhwa Cult has a Portal Ability User, you see.”
“I see.”
In other words, even with a Barrier, I can come in and get you anytime. Be prepared, Shinohara Yuzuki. I’m going to get you. Well, I can’t just pounce on her right away. I decided to subtly throw out some bait.
“But is there no reward?” “A reward? Is there something you desire?”
At my question, she tilted her head slightly, as if she knew nothing.
Is she really going to pretend not to know? This bad bitch. Right now, my lower belly is tingling with desire.
I moved closer to her.
“You know, there must have been a reason for that kiss back then, right?”
For example, you were trying to seduce me. Finally, when I gave her a meaningful look, she shrugged, as if surrendering.
“Hmm. You’re not going to let this go easily, are you?”
“Well, that’s right. Even if I look like this, I’m definitely Yongyong-i.”
In other words, let’s have sex quickly. Sex! In my head, my fingers were already moving freely, enough to suit her, who was called the 'Heavenly Sword'. Good, now actually doing it is the only answer. Just as I was thinking that and approaching, Shinohara Yuzuki stepped back.
“Lady Baekhwa, do you really have to do this? I am the Leader of Japan, and you are the Baekhwa Cult Leader.”
A bombshell statement came out of her mouth.
“You knew, after all?”
Hmm, I expected it, but for her to actually figure it out… I’ll have to ask her later.
“Yes. I’m the type to even investigate people I’m interested in.”
Interested, she says. Doesn’t that mean she wants to do it with me? Of course. If I’m interested, there’s no way Yuzuki isn’t interested in me. The problem is, if she’s revealed that she’s Baekhwa, then I also have something to reveal.
“Well, thank you very much. Miss Kotone?”
I muttered that, subtly moving my hand.
“Indeed. If I know, it’s only natural that you would know too.”
“So, about that reward?”
To me, it doesn’t matter if Yuzuki’s true identity is Korean, or an Elf, or a Succubus.
What’s most important is the reward, isn’t it?
I’m hungry for sex right now! I want to rub!
“Alright. I’ll give it to you. After all, you’re someone who openly harasses Women in Dungeons, so what does it matter?”
“Huh?”
She let out a deep sigh, and suddenly the atmosphere changed. Instead of backing down like before, she looked at me with a smiling gaze, as if I were laughable, and then pushed me, making me fall. She didn’t just make me fall. From the walls of what must have been a Modified Room, ropes emerged and bound my arms.
“The Shinohara House Head’s room has House Head’s Finger-Controlled Devices. These ropes, hidden in the walls, are meant to hang intruders immediately for interrogation. But it seems they can be used like this too.”
No, considering the Shinsengumi, breaking through the Barrier itself would be difficult.
These ropes, to be clear, aren’t meant for this purpose, are they?
The problem is, why did she tie me up with them?
“Wait, what are you suddenly doing?”
“You asked for a reward, didn’t you? Yes. I practiced quite a bit to give you a reward.”
“What on earth is it?”
I have a rough idea of what it might be. But surely it is not.
