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

Yamei was kicked away by the fox girl, Zhu Ling, smashing through the passage behind her, bouncing wildly in another gravel-filled tunnel before lying flat on her back.

"Am I... defeated?"

The girl, lying in a large sprawl gazing at the ceiling, felt her consciousness truly beginning to blur.

'--To lose in a place like this?'

She murmured inwardly.

Instantly, a vast darkness expanded from all directions, gradually seizing her consciousness.

...

She didn't know how much time had passed, but Yamei woke up again.

"Haa..."

She breathed out faintly.

Her body felt terrible, and her face seemed swollen, covered in bruises all over.

No, it wasn't just that. When Yagalo Yamei regained consciousness, she was surprised to find herself unable to move.

"I'm very sorry."

A brown-skinned girl lowered her head in front of her.

"Ugh...! Ugh~~!"

She desperately twisted her body, trying to break free from the restraints, but the strangely patterned strips didn't even make a sound of friction, let alone break.

With a thud, Yamei fell to the ground. She discovered that she couldn't use her spiritual power either. These long strips of cloth, whatever material they were made of, seemed to be absorbing and extracting her spiritual power.

"This is a 'Serpent Band'."

Tark's daughter, Lileila, said with a wry smile, "It is said that a woman consumed by jealousy will turn into a seven-coiled serpent after wrapping the band three times around herself. The evil thoughts generated by human jealousy can also be poured into the belt, turning it into a yokai-like Tsukumogami."

She explained faintly, "These belts will absorb the spiritual power of anyone with spiritual power they come into contact with. Although it's not fatal, it's almost impossible to escape in a short period of time."

"Lileila... you, what exactly are you trying to do?"

Yamei asked in confusion.

"I'm sorry."

Lileila apologized again.

"I just hope Miss Yamei can do me a favor."

"Y-You want me to help you!?"

Yamei was very surprised.

"If it's help you need, why couldn't you just tell me... why did you have to treat me this way?"

"This is also for certain considerations."

Lileila showed a bitter expression.

"I don't mean to hurt you... or your companions, but, my father's side..."

She seemed to think of something and sighed deeply, "In short, I hope to ask Miss Yamei for a favor."

"Is it the one you mentioned earlier, wanting me to help?"

Yamei was very puzzled by this. She couldn't understand what kind of help required her to be tied up like this.

Also, she was very worried about the situation of the others. After encountering those two members of the Hachi-fuku Association, she didn't know how the others were doing now.

'No, there shouldn't be any problems. After all, Hyakkei and the others shouldn't be so easily defeated.'

Although she was worried, she still believed in her companions.

"Then, speak."

Yamei cleared her throat and asked, "What exactly is it? If your reasons are sufficient, I can agree to your request."

Lileila was also a little stunned and speechless.

She didn't expect Yamei to be furious or to burst into abuse after being captured.

"Yes, I hope Miss Yamei will help me defeat a yokai."

Lileila didn't hesitate too much and directly stated her intention.

"...That guy is called Abe Mimaru, a snake demon with two heads."

She took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "He's a very evil yokai. My father, Tark, has been bewitched by him. If this continues, that yokai will also bring danger to the tribe. We must find a way to defeat him."

"Defeat a yokai?"

Hearing this, Yamei nodded slowly, "If it's something like that, I'm of course willing to help, but... there's no need to tie me up, right?"

"I'm sorry."

Lileila smiled wryly, "This matter is a long story, but it's also something that must be done to kill that snake demon, Abe Mimaru. Please bear with it for a moment, and afterwards, I will explain the details to you--"

"Okay."

Yamei nodded.

...

At the same time that Lileila was talking with Yamei.

A pair of cold eyes were peering at Yagalo Yamei from the shadows.

It was the fetus created by Kurohimeyama Fujiwara, created using her own cells, plus Hyakkei's blood, as well as alchemy and some forbidden techniques, the two's child.

Fujiwara gave her a name, calling her "Uya Muya."

Uya Muya, at the beginning of her birth, was originally just a fetus, her whole body surrounded by ominous darkness.

However, she only spent a very short time transforming from a small infant to a little girl -- no, it should be said that for Uya Muya, the word "growth" is not correct.

She is actually very close to the "homunculus" in Western alchemy. After her birth, she gained the ability to freely switch between the spiritual and physical mediums at will.

--In the technology of homunculus, the creator bestows innate wisdom. After Uya Muya was born, she possessed a high degree of intelligence.

In addition, Uya Muya can also summon a kind of dark mist, hiding her true form, making it imperceptible to outsiders. This is a concealment ability far superior to high-level stealth techniques.

'As expected... this woman is still too troublesome. Taking advantage of this opportunity, it's a good time to kill her.'

Uya Muya intended to kill Yagalo Yamei.

Based on some kind of intuition, she realized that Yagalo Yamei was a nuisance.

This woman would hinder her mother from getting her father.

--Her existence is a clear obstacle.

Uya Muya had a strong dependence and longing for her mother, Kurohimeyama Fujiwara. She would faithfully carry out her mother's orders.

The newest novel is first published!

However, Uya Muya also had her own ideas.

Unlike her mother's overly "obsessed" love for that man, Uya Muya didn't feel anything for her father.

She didn't care much about that man, and didn't quite understand why her mother cared so much about him.

'That man should have fallen into the lower levels of the Maze Cave, but he shouldn't be dead...'

Fujiwara had ordered her to protect Hyakkei.

However, Uya Muya had no intention of "faithfully executing" this matter.

'This underground cave labyrinth called Maze has a special property, isolating information from the outside world, making it very inconvenient to use telepathy... Also, my connection with my mother has been cut off. Conversely, she can't learn about my father's condition through the collar.'

Her mother, Fujiwara, didn't want to kill Yagalo Yamei.

Her statement seemed to claim that she wanted to fight Kurohimeyama Kohagi, so Yamei's existence was necessary--

"Because only her awakened Heavenly Eye can completely restrain that woman's Time Chant," her mother showed a very fearful expression at the time, and she turned her face away.

"Although I have tried several times, I have never been able to find an effective way to fight against the power of Time Chant... Moreover, that old guy would deliberately take her as a disciple, which should also be a consideration."

Uya Muya didn't quite understand the thinking behind her mother Fujiwara's intention, but she still thought this guy was a threat.

'I must kill her.'

As for dealing with that Kurohimeyama Kohagi, she felt that she could do it with her own strength.

It's about time to make a move.

There was no wind around, but the girl's hair still danced gently in the air.

She summoned a transparent blade from the void.

Suddenly, a figure walked out of the corner. His appearance was too strange, and Uya Muya didn't sense it in time, or rather, she didn't notice this figure.

"Father... you're back?"

Lileila turned her head and saw her father, Tark, appearing here. The Ainu hunter had a gloomy face, and his right hand was holding something similar to a sharp horn.

'Is it the tooth of a beast or a yokai?'

Uya Muya could see very clearly that it was not a sharp horn, but the tooth of some kind of yokai.

"That's right, my plan was going very smoothly, but it was still seen through by that merchant named Renjo."

Tark shook his head.

"I was also cut by a puppet while escaping, fortunately only injured in the arm."

The old hunter covered his right arm, where there was a wound.

"Thanks to the tooth given by Lord Abe Mimaru, if it wasn't for this thing, I wouldn't have been able to escape from that group of people."

Hearing these words, Uya Muya felt relieved.

The old hunter and his daughter should be ordinary people. They don't have any special powers, nor can they use spiritual power. Logically speaking, they are just two mortals.

However, the old hunter Tark was able to escape from a group of exorcists, and Lileila had a way to restrain Yagalo Yamei, all of which showed that they were not relying on their own strength.

'It should be a medium.'

Uya Muya saw through the real reason.

A powerful snake demon gave its snake teeth to this father and daughter. Although they don't have spiritual power, they can use the demon power of the snake demon to perform spells.

"Are the offerings ready?"

"They're ready."

Lileila directed the serpent band to seal Yamei's mouth.

"Although there is only one girl, her spiritual power is quite strong. I hope Lord Abe Mimaru will like it."

"I'm afraid not."

The old hunter Tark shook his head, a look of anxiety on his face.

"Last time, the time before last... because we couldn't find offerings, that lord was already very dissatisfied. If we make him angry again, Abe Mimaru might attack us."

"N-No way?"

Lileila pretended not to believe it.

However, compared to her father Tark, she already knew the evil intentions of that two-headed snake demon.

...Unfortunately, her father knew too late.

Her breathing was a little rapid, and a trace of sorrow surged in her heart.

Unfortunately, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't save her father, who was now "unaware" of the truth.

The only thing she could do was find a way to avenge him.
