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

“You… you really surprise me?”

Heiji Yama Misumi's expression also changed from surprise to calm. She released the vermilion torii gates, and the twenty-eight torii gates turned into fragments of light and disappeared without a trace.

“Where is Miyuki?”

She asked in a deep voice: “Kohagi, you didn’t really kill Miyuki, did you?”

Misumi looked at the shadow at her feet.

“Of course not.”

Kohagi smiled.

She opened her lips, revealing her unnaturally white, beautifully shaped teeth, and a brilliant smile.

“How could I be willing to kill her…”

The eyes of this eldest princess of the Heiji Yama family were not smiling, and her eyes hid a deep-seated hatred.

“Mother cannot die like this. I just locked her in that cage woven from shadows… I won’t kill her, the former head of the family. She still has an important use for me.”

“That’s fine then.”

Heiji Yama Misumi did not intend to continue to ask.

She had long been aware of the conflict and contradiction between her daughter and granddaughter, but for various reasons, she did not intend to intervene.

Throughout the generations, the women of the clan would engage in various kinds of infighting in order to compete for the position of head of the family. This kind of infighting within the clan was like refining poison, selecting the most suitable person through this method.

This was also the tradition of the Heiji Yama family.

Even Misumi herself had climbed to the throne of the head of the family by killing her sister and three younger sisters.

‘But… come to think of it, why… why does our Heiji Yama family have to be so obsessed with this kind of tradition? Does this kind of thing… really have any meaning?’

Occasionally, she would have such questions in her heart.

However, in the next moment, the former head of the family swallowed these bitter questions and put them out of her mind.

“By the way, I would like to ask, the price to pay for the power of Time Weaving should be quite huge, right?”

Misumi asked Kohagi again: “Using that kind of power for a long time will inevitably consume your own future time. So, how much lifespan do you have left?”

“There’s still a lot.”

Kohagi tilted her lips and showed a smile.

“Paying the price is inevitable, but… is it possible that this price does not need me to support it, and let other ‘me’s bear the price I need, wouldn’t that be fine?”

She said these words, and Misumi was stunned by this “answer” when she heard her words.

‘Could it be… that she transferred the price that needed to be paid to herself in other timelines?’

“Then.”

Kohagi nonchalantly asked her grandmother: “I would also like to ask, do I have a chance to become the head of the clan!?”

She no longer put on a smile, but asked righteously.

“…!”

Misumi’s breathing stopped.

“Why are you asking this… you certainly have the qualifications.”

“No, don’t misunderstand.”

Kohagi said calmly: “I’m not talking to you, former head of the family… the person I want to talk to is the one deeper inside. You should be listening, right~”

She said in a calling tone, word by word: “I’m talking about ‘you’, Old Man Mask.”

As soon as the silver-haired girl said this.

Misumi’s expression suddenly changed.

“You… what did you say?”

“Old Man Mask.”

Kohagi strengthened her tone.

“It’s about time, you can come out now.”

Misumi remained silent. However, a strong aura gradually emanated from her body. That miasma-like aura would leave a deep impression at first glance.

“Where… where did you hear that name from?”

Her lips opened, and her tongue wandered between her snow-white teeth.

Misumi seemed to want to say something, but then she closed her lips again.

In that instant, Heiji Yama Misumi’s personality seemed to have been replaced. She slowly opened her mouth in an old man’s voice: “Little girl, do you really know what you’re talking about?”

That unparalleled aura gave people the illusion that the surrounding air had changed.

Behind Misumi, a huge force rose up and gradually gathered above her head, forming a strange mask, a “Old Man Mask” mask from Noh theatre.

“So that’s how it is.”

Kohagi narrowed her eyes. She could feel that Misumi’s body was full of ominous aura, and the “Old Man Mask” behind her slowly fell, covering her face.

“How interesting… little girl, how did you know about me?”

The voice of the old man slowly sounded.

—Old Man Mask.

This is the true darkness “hidden” within the Heiji Yama family.

The heads of the Heiji Yama family throughout the generations have been beings parasitized by the power of the “Old Man Mask”.

It is also the biggest “幕後黑手 (behind-the-scenes manipulator)” in the entire Heiji Yama family.

For a long time, the “internal strife” and “互相残杀 (mutual slaughter)” that the descendants of the Heiji Yama family had generated in order to compete for benefits were all fostered by the Old Man Mask.

All of this was a conspiracy woven by the Old Man Mask.

Heiji Yama Misumi is not an “evil person”.

She didn’t know that she had been parasitized by the “Old Man Mask” when she became the former head of the family. In places she didn’t understand, her spirit and will were played with by the “Old Man Mask”. It was also because the Old Man Mask secretly controlled the clan that the “distortion” of the Heiji Yama family was created.

The newest novels are first published on 69shu.com!

In fact, this was also a secret that only game players would know.

Basically, each new head of the family would become the object of parasitism by the “Old Man Mask”.

And in Misumi’s generation, she was regarded as a good container by the “Old Man Mask” because of her special ability of “immortality”.

The “Old Man Mask” did not turn to parasitize Miyuki, but simply hid itself and hid within Misumi’s body.

On the other hand, as a player, Hyakusuke was also very clear about this. He knew that the “Old Man Mask”, an evil spiritual parasite, was hidden in Misumi’s body.

This is also why Heiji Yama Misumi became one of the “three great evil women of the Heiji Yama family” that players talked about.

However, in the main storyline, the Old Man Mask is mostly dormant.

As long as you don’t trigger a special plot in the game, the “Old Man Mask” will mostly hide and will not actively interfere.

However, once the Old Man Mask hidden in Misumi’s body is activated, Misumi will completely become a “villain” and defect to become the enemy of the protagonist, Yamei.

“I am the person who holds the ‘Power of Time Weaving’.”

Kohagi explained bluntly: “Since you know my power, then why ask this question?”

“Okay?”

The “Old Man Mask” nodded.

“Little girl… you know about me, and you still dare to take the initiative to find me. You really have a lot of courage? Although your power is not bad, I can still easily strangle an existence like you.”

“I know.”

Kohagi said with a smile: “However, I want to make a deal with you.”

“A deal?”

The “Old Man Mask” laughed: “What kind of deal are you going to make with me? I don’t lack anything?”

“The three treasures of the Root Country.”

Kohagi said calmly: “The Ama-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi is in my hands. You should be determined to get this treasure, right?”

She continued: “If you use this treasure to make a deal, you should be interested, right?” “What!?”

The Old Man Mask was also greatly surprised. Suddenly, this strange existence let out an old laugh.

“Hahahahahaha… Little girl, you are really interesting, Ama-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi? Very good, very good, then I will make a deal with you.”

This strange mask asked her slowly: “What exactly do you want from this deal?”

“Please listen to me.”

Kohagi announced with her bright red lips.

“The content of this deal is…”

She said her plan word by word.

After listening, even the “Old Man Mask” said in surprise: “Is this your deal?”

“That’s right.”

Kohagi smiled lightly: “However, this is only part of the deal. If you have no objections, I also have a way to get you the other two treasures of Yomi, the Ikudachi and Ikuyumi.”

“Okay.”

The Old Man Mask nodded.

“Then, I will act as you said.”

It let out a “kukuku” laugh.

“Little girl, you are very interesting. If you can really get the other two treasures, then I can guarantee that this deal will definitely achieve your goal.”

“I hope so.”

Kohagi also responded with a smile. Her eyes were still cold, revealing an unfathomable light.
