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

Chapter 109 The Flame of Conflict

"Timing? What timing..."

Ye Ming asked doubtfully.

“It’s difficult to explain.”

Kurohimeyama Mikado sighed, "Or rather, neither you nor Baijie right now...are qualified to approach the 'truth'."

"Why, why do you say that?"

Ye Ming looked at her with a puzzled look.

"Because you lack the strength and courage to face the 'truth'."

Kurohimeyama Mikado shook her head.

"I hate playing the role of Riddler, but this is also what I do to protect you... Baijie is not yet at the stage where he can understand his life experience, and you are too weak to challenge this situation."

"Um, that... I don't understand, but, was his sudden collapse due to the effects of some kind of curse?"

"Pretty much. It was a curse placed on his brain when he was tampering with his memory. It was intended to prevent him from recovering his memory."

Kurohimeyama Mikaku explained, "That curse is far too complex, even our Kurohimeyama clan cannot break it. Miyuki and I have also tried to research it, but unfortunately, despite our wisdom, we have still found nothing."

"Wait, wait a minute... Could it be that the one who placed this curse on Baijie's brain wasn't the head of the Kurohimeyama clan, nor was it you, Master?"

Ye Ming couldn't help but be surprised.

She had heard what Kuzuka had said and thought that the person who created all this should be the previous head of the Kurohimeyama clan and the current head, Miyuki.

However, "Master" Yu Jiao obviously denied it.

"Yes."

Yujiao nodded.

"There's no need for me to lie to you, since you're an outsider in this matter... However, since you've already gotten some information from Ge Hua, there's no point in hiding it. Of course, I can only say 'I can let you know,' and I won't go beyond that."

"Could it be..."

As thoughts flashed through her mind, she couldn't help but blurt out: "What exactly happened to the destruction of the Ziyue clan? Why did the Heijiyama family do that..."

"That's a misunderstanding."

Yu Jiao sighed: "The destruction of the Ziyue family has no direct connection with Kurohime Mountain. Although there have been frictions and conflicts between our two families, we have never torn our relations apart. On the day when the Ziyue clan was wiped out, Yu Xing and I were quite surprised-"

Her eyes seemed lost in memories.

"In order to find out the situation, we first sent a shikigami to the Ziyue clan's territory to investigate, but what we saw was that the Ziyue family had been completely destroyed."

The sky turned crimson, as if it was burning.

Giant hands of fire rose from the cities and territories of the Ziyue clan, and black smoke filled the air.

Yujiao closed his eyes and ended this memory.

"Afterwards, rumors spread. My daughter, Miyuki, thought it was profitable, so she secretly allowed the rumor that 'the Suzuki clan had angered the imperial court and was purged by the Kurohimeyama family' to spread widely..."

"But, Miss Kuzuka said that—"

"Katsuka didn't experience that incident, so the information she had was quite limited," Yujiao said with a wry smile. "The experience she pieced together on her own is riddled with errors and omissions... Of course, we can't blame the child. After the incident with the Suzuki clan, the Kurohime family certainly didn't do well either, so it's not wrong for her to have such thoughts."

"Then," Ye Ming asked without hesitation, "Who caused all this? And who cast the curse on Bai Jie that hindered his memory?"

Kurohimeyama Mikado fell silent.

Admittedly, this was a question that made her feel embarrassed.

The former head of the family frowned, and her tense expression seemed to indicate that she did not want to answer the question.

Finally, the former head of the family spoke with a hint of hesitation.

"Ziyueshi... that guy's name should be this."

Yu Jiao said in a cold tone, "I have only met him twice. He is a traitor to the Ziyue clan and the one who cursed Bai Jie... However, I do not recommend that you seek information related to him. After all, you will encounter a situation worse than death."

Finally, she said this coldly and turned away.

……

Ziyuezhi.

Ye Ming memorized this name firmly.

She didn't know who the other person was, but if she wanted to help Baijie remove the curse in his brain, she could only try to track this clue.

Although her "master" Yu Jiao reminded her not to try to find this person, Ye Ming did not intend to give up this clue.

"It's really hard work."

She held his head gently.

"But I will help you...I will definitely help you."

Ye Ming looked at his sleeping face lovingly.

——If you put your face closer, it will touch.

Or, a little closer and it would touch my forehead.

Or, if I arch my back a little, I can even touch his lips.

However, that scene only remained in his imagination, and Ye Ming had no intention of putting it into practice.

You can't do that. She felt that it was too despicable - for him, for Ge Hua, and for herself.

——But, it’s okay if it’s just this little.

Just by holding him, Ye Ming could immerse himself in happiness.

She doesn't intend to use any crooked means, but to achieve victory in an upright manner.

"I will defeat you, Miss Kuzuka."

The girl murmured confidently.

She believed she was right.

Only my own method can save him and establish true love, which is a love that blends between each other, not a one-sided delusion.

“It’s not one-sided, with only one person contributing.”

She strengthened her resolve in her heart.

"In the future... you can also come and rely on me." This is not a future created by one person alone, but by two people.

She imagined the future from the bottom of her heart, and from the depths of her heart she longed for and fantasized about the future that the two of them would create for each other.

……

"Is this Kasumi Castle?"

Zi Yuexun was riding on a horse, looking at the huge cherry tree in the distance.

"...I heard it was attacked by an evil spirit before, so I thought it was somewhat damaged, but now it seems there's nothing serious."

"However, Tian Shenying's pure spirit has been somewhat affected."

The person who said this was an old man dressed as a monk and wearing a deep straw hat.

"We Shell Snakes have all undergone some transformation through sorcery and surgery, so we are grateful for the Heavenly Sakura barrier..."

As the old man spoke, the tin staff in his hand struck the ground with a "dong" sound, and the tin ring also made a crisp ringing sound.

"Fortunately, now... Tian Shenying should have experienced the previous 'Unholy Ghost Incident' and consumed a lot of energy. The power of its barrier has also weakened. With the resistance of spiritual power, it should be able to move normally within it."

"We still have to avoid direct conflict with Dewa Province's Sakura Main Shack and Kasumi Castle."

Zi Yuexun smiled and said, "Please don't forget, everyone, the mission the head of the family gave us was just to bring back Yue Jialuo Yeming and the Chunin named Baijie. There's no need to make a big fuss."

"Miss Ge Hua, you won't let us take action so easily, right?"

A female voice sounded from the side. It was a member of the Shell Snakes who was dressed as a servant. She was a mysterious woman dressed in black, wearing black gloves and a black veil.

"If there were a head-on conflict with them, it would be no joke..."

"It seems that Lady Yujiao has arrived ahead of time. With her presence, Miss Gehua will probably be more restrained."

The old man dressed as a monk smiled bitterly. "After all, this is the order of the head of the family. No matter what Miss Gehua says, we won't directly quarrel with each other in public. Besides, our mission is only to bring the people back, not to end their lives. If the second young lady really has any objections, she might as well return to the main family and have a good talk with her mother."

"I'm more worried about the attitude of the eldest lady Xiao Hagi. The young master of the Yuejialuo clan is her fiancé. We don't know what her plans will be—"

The woman in black uttered her doubts.

"I haven't heard of any unusual behavior from the eldest lady," Zi Yuexun smiled slightly. "She's a smart person and probably won't directly rebel against the head of the family. Don't worry, everyone. I'll take responsibility for anything that happens. You just need to let go and act accordingly."

"I'll wait to understand."

The old man dressed as a monk, the woman in black, and the other members of the Shell Snake Clan all nodded obediently.

Zi Yuexun sat on the horse with the corners of his mouth stretched into a crescent shape. The young man waved his hand exaggeratedly, signaling everyone to keep moving forward while thinking secretly.

"Tsuki Kara Yamei... and that man named Baijie..."

He thought back to the mission he had secretly received.

——The adult instructed me to try to bring these two people back to the Society of Beatitudes.

"It might be a little troublesome... But if it's you, Xun, I believe you can do it."

He smiled as usual and said calmly, "It doesn't matter what the method is, just bring these two people to me."

"but."

Zi Yuexun knelt down devoutly.

"Miyayuki-sama, the head of the Kurohimeyama clan, seems to be planning to use these two people to do something..."

"That ghost girl?"

"He" held his chin as if he was calculating.

"She's a minor character... But we can't just ignore her. How about this? You pretend to obey her orders first, and then try to sneak her over. Xun, I believe this shouldn't be difficult for you, right?!"

"certainly.'

Zi Yuexun answered without hesitation: "As long as it is your order, I will do it even if it means going through fire and water."

"Good answer."

He chuckled and said, "This knife is for you."

"This, this is?"

Ziyuexun nervously took the wakizashi thrown by her master.

"This, this is too valuable... Are you really planning to give me this kind of treasure?"

He remembered that this was one of the two precious swords that "he" liked the most, and its name seemed to be Zhenshi Wang.

"Of course, you are my loyal right-hand man."

He laughed and said, "This reward is not too much."

"I'm truly humbled and terrified."

Xun kowtowed quickly and was filled with joy.

"Right, right... Lord Shi, I also have a question. That target is also from the Ziyue clan. Could it be that he is your younger brother?"

"younger brother?"

The master frowned and sighed softly.

"I took the liberty."

Xun thought he had offended his lord and quickly apologized to him.

"No, it's not a big deal... He is indeed my brother."

"He" shook his head.

"But I'm not going to give that guy any preferential treatment. Just do things your way."

"I understand."

Xun bowed respectfully again.

At that time, she could feel that "he" seemed to be hiding something, but it didn't matter - Xun never had any doubts about this lord. It was more like blind obedience than loyalty to the lord.

Xun firmly believed that all he had to do was follow "him". He was willing to go with him. As long as that adult was going somewhere, he would go with him even to hell.

Zi Yuexun, who was sitting on the horse, also felt an unbearable heat surging in her heart.

"I will definitely carry out my lord's orders... Please wait a little longer, Master Shiki."
