Tentacle Monster Conquest Manual

A sumptuous dinner?

Did Managi-nee make it herself? Knowing how outstanding and amazing her skills were, the girls' eyes lit up, and they instantly changed their tune, "Of course, no problem, Managi-nee, have fun!"

"It doesn't matter how long, just don't stay out all night."

"Xiaoxiao, don't be so dull. Be more considerate of Managi-neechan and pamper her more, understand?"

Mu Xiaoxiao: "..."

"You sold me out with just one meal? And you're spoiling her so much? Are you even my girlfriends anymore?" Mu Xiaoxiao watched with a pained expression as they escorted him to Nakiri Managi's side, then said goodbye. He hadn't recovered even after Mrs. Managi dragged him out of the apartment arm in arm.

"Why do you look so grumpy? Are you so reluctant to go shopping with me?" Nakiri Managi asked with a grin.

"I also want to eat your cooking."

"Oh, is she being cute? How adorable~" Nakiri Managi was a little happy. This was a roundabout way of praising her, and besides, she felt a great sense of accomplishment that her beloved liked her cooking. "Tomorrow, I'll cook you a big meal tomorrow, okay? Come eat with me today~"

Hearing her say that, Mu Xiaoxiao stopped worrying. She wasn't a picky person. "You've been going out shopping and having fun every day these past few days, haven't you? You've eaten out quite a bit, haven't you? Isn't that enough?"

Nakiri Managi inhaled the pleasant scent emanating from the boy, felt the comfort of her own healthy body, and walked under the twilight sky, breathing in the fresh air. A sense of freedom and joy washed over her, and she smiled gently. "Of course not, far from enough."

Her big eyes darted around the various shops along the roadside, and she explained as she looked, "I've been holding back for too long and feeling stifled for too long. I want to make up for all that lost time."

For so many years, she had to stay home to recuperate due to her health, so she couldn't be as happy and free as she is now. Therefore, these days, Managi Nakiri has been out having fun, shopping at malls and shopping centers, buying clothes, cosmetics, and enjoying snacks and treats.

Just like it is now.

Not just clothing stores, luxury goods stores, and shopping malls, Nakiri Managi is willing to go anywhere to see and try new things, even games and comics she doesn't understand. Because Mu Xiaoxiao likes them and understands them well, she is willing to drag him to Akihabara.

When the shop owner saw such a beautiful woman pulling out those R-rated comics from the bookstore, both the clerk and the owner felt a little ashamed. Mu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but cover her face with her hands, but she herself didn't feel anything was wrong and looked at them with great interest.

In the end, Mu Xiaoxiao forcibly dragged him out of the comic book store.

"Little one, I haven't finished reading it yet," Nakiri Managi chuckled, covering her mouth as she leaned closer mischievously. "What, are you getting impatient?"

"...I'm more embarrassed than you are. You're really getting more and more unrestrained, Managi."

Mu Xiaoxiao was speechless.

“I’m just curious, what kind of girls do young people like these days?” Nakiri Managi stroked her chin thoughtfully. “As expected, there are still more girls who are a bit out of place.”

"...Let's not talk about this anymore, let's find a restaurant to eat," Mu Xiaoxiao said, trying to change the subject since she didn't want to tell her dirty jokes.

When these men and women get into a flirtatious mood, it's really hard to resist.

"Why go to a restaurant? Let's stroll around the shopping street. It's night market time, let's try some street food there!"

Nakiri Managi grabbed Mu Xiaoxiao without giving him a chance to refuse and led him to the shopping street. It was already evening, and the shopping street was quite crowded with people and many roadside food stalls. Nakiri Managi was holding snacks such as takoyaki and sago, eating as she walked.

Often, before she had finished what she was eating, she couldn't resist grabbing a new snack, leaving the rest for Mu Xiaoxiao to finish. She ate like this from beginning to end, which greatly changed Mu Xiaoxiao's opinion of the woman beside her, and she began to understand her better.

Now, she has completely lost her former stern and imposing demeanor. She is lively and happy all the way, just like a little girl, full of sunshine and vitality. It's amazing that she is such an old lady, yet she is so energetic.

Emmm, of course, judging from her appearance, Nakiri Managi is not very old. She is a beautiful young woman in her twenties, the most beautiful age for a woman. When she walks with Mu Xiaoxiao, she will only be mistaken for a brother and sister or a couple.

But she's actually forty years old. While her essence has miraculous effects, it doesn't change a person's mind. Perhaps this is the true nature of Nakiri Managi's heart.

"Xiaoxiao, this taiyaki tastes pretty good! You should try some!"

"Didn't you eat it all?"

"Ah...it's okay, I'll give you the last bite, open your mouth—"

"Hey! Managi—woof!"

After a long while, their lips parted, and Nakiri Managi wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth, grinning as she asked, "How was it? Wasn't it sweet?"

"..."

Mu Xiaoxiao clicked her tongue and glared at her in annoyance. "It's alright. Although I'm not picky about food, in terms of taste, it's far inferior to the dishes you make, Managi. Can you really eat this kind of food?"

“My God Tongue has been tamed by you,” Nakiri Managi blinked. “Even if she’s not satisfied, that kiss just now made her obediently submit.”

“I’m not talking about God’s Tongue… I just think that street food is a bit out of place for your status,” Mu Xiaoxiao muttered, scratching her head. “You and your mother are really weird. If it were Erina, she would definitely say that this is some kind of garbage, commoner’s food and throw it away in disgust. But you, as the mother, are completely the opposite.”

The young man sighed with emotion.

Nakiri Managi was also stunned. "That's true... Although I am the young lady of the Nakiri family, I don't care about commoner's food. I am interested in tasting all kinds of food. In fact, I liked street food when I was a student. It's because I don't know about it that I can be surprised."

However, after the side effects of the God Tongue appeared, she was unable to take a bite.

Otherwise, Nakiri Managi wouldn't care whether someone was a noble or a commoner, luxurious or ordinary, but compared to herself, her daughter was... It was all that bastard who led her daughter astray. Thinking of this, Nakiri Managi was furious.

"Wait, Xiaoxiao, you don't know Erina, do you? Why do you know so much about her?" The young woman suddenly realized, staring at him suspiciously, and stuffed a takoyaki into his mouth. "You and Erina should have no connection whatsoever, you've never even met, you're basically strangers, right? But why do you seem to know her so well?"

This little rascal actually knows his daughter so well, which makes Nakiri Managi a little suspicious and wary. She stands in front of him, cups the boy's face in her hands, and stares at him closely.

"Um, well, of course it's because of you, Managi. That's why I specifically investigated. After all, you're my woman now, so naturally I want to know more," Mu Xiaoxiao racked her brains to explain, forcing a smile. She couldn't very well say that she knew from the beginning, could she?

As for any other thoughts, he really didn't have any!

Managi Nakiri believed her too. She could also sense that Koko didn't have any lewd thoughts towards Erina, so she nodded, blushing, and said, "Silly girl, you're quite good at flattering people~"

But my daughter's God Tongue... tsk, it seems we'll need this little rascal's help to cure it. Are my daughter and I both going to fall into his hands? I'm a bit conflicted.

Nakiri Managi's dilemma wasn't just this. The lady sighed softly, "Xiaoxiao, I plan to go see Erina soon. This can't go on forever. In any case, as her mother, I can't keep hiding from her."

"I'll have to go home and see my family sooner or later."

“That’s great,” Mu Xiaoxiao agreed. “Your God Tongue is fine now, so it’s only right that you go back. I think your family will be happy about it too.”

As for Managi's apology to her daughter, Mu Xiaoxiao understood perfectly well, but there was nothing he could do to help. The boy suddenly stopped, bought two cans of coffee from a vending machine by the roadside, and handed them to her. "Managi, if you're worried or scared, I can go with you."

Nakiri Managi took the black coffee he offered, blinked, and said, "Little one, are you sure you're not going to assert your dominance? If I bring you home, Father will definitely interrogate me about our relationship, and then..."

Oh, never mind then.

Mu Xiaoxiao immediately retracted her previous statement.

"No, don't forget it. I really want you to come home with me, Xiaoxiao. As for Father... he can't interfere in my affairs. Besides, even if he knew about my relationship with you, he probably wouldn't object." Just because Xiaoxiao can solve the God Tongue, Father will support him.

Managi was well aware of this.

The problem is still with my daughter...

"Xiaoxiao, how about this weekend? Come with me to the Nakiri family's house this weekend. I'll meet Erina there and introduce you to her as well," Nakiri Managi said, then stopped, but Mu Xiaoxiao understood what she meant.

Can you let me get along well with Erina?

Looking at the beautiful Managi with a complicated expression, Mu Xiaoxiao knew that she wanted her to heal her daughter's God Tongue. However, this would make the relationship very delicate. Mu Xiaoxiao did not tease her, but nodded instead.

"We'll see about that later. Knowing your daughter's personality, she'll definitely be hostile towards me—"

"No, she will be grateful to you."

Chapter 351 Huh? It's you again?

Today is Thursday, a few days before the weekend. There's no rush. Mu Xiaoxiao knows that Mrs. Nakiri Managi needs to adjust her mood.

After making their agreement, the two continued strolling through the night market. Although it wasn't the weekend, the commercial district was still bustling with people, from office workers who had just finished get off work to flashy, sexy girls and bar hostesses trying to pick them up on the street. Everyone had their own unique face.

Looking at the city with its flashing neon lights, Mu Xiaoxiao sighed inwardly, "What a decadent and decadent place! Not long ago, the news was full of reports of deaths, murders, and various accidents, as if Tokyo was about to undergo a major upheaval."

These days, the news and newspapers are no longer there. Instead, they are filled with all sorts of entertainment-obsessed gossip, funny stories, and tabloid news. Mu Xiaoxiao knows that Tokyo has not become more peaceful. On the contrary, the city at night is even more unpredictable, uneasy, and fraught with danger.

That's true, at least for ordinary people.

When it comes to self-deception, island nations are still the same as ever.

"Have you eaten enough? Where else would you like to go?" Seeing that Nakiri Managi looked like she wanted to try all the night market snacks, Mu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but think of the second seat of the Elite Ten of Totsuki Academy. Compared to Mrs. Managi's daughter, she was more like Kobayashi Rindou.

“Ever since you… modified me, my digestion speed has increased a lot, so it’s okay to keep eating,” Nakiri Managi smiled. “But if you’re bored, how about we go somewhere else? A karaoke bar? Or maybe a bar?”

"At my age, I can't drink in Japan, right?"

“You’re not Japanese,” Nakiri Managi chuckled. “But forget about bars, I rarely go there. As for karaoke, I don’t think you’re very interested in that either. I guess Akihabara is more to your liking.”

Mu Xiaoxiao clicked her tongue and rolled her eyes at her. "Don't bother with all that. Let's find a coffee shop to sit down and rest... Hey? There's a maid cafe over there. Shall we go check it out?"

Following his gaze, she saw a girl dressed as a maid handing out flyers and soliciting customers at the store entrance. Although Nakiri Managi had been withdrawn for many years, she was now constantly in contact with the outside world and knew that she was not a real maid, but just using maids as a gimmick.

She even knew that prices at maid cafes were much higher than at regular shops.

Does Xiaoxiao like this style? Mrs. Nagi's mind raced. Thinking of the two maids in her house, whether it was Tsubaki Rurikawa or Anri Shiki, they seemed to often wear maid outfits in this style. Nagi felt that she had found Mu Xiaoxiao's weakness.

"Xiaoxiao, you like maids?"

Faced with Nakiri Managi's teasing gaze, Mu Xiaoxiao's lips twitched, unable to refute. Okay, this is indeed one of his preferences, but I didn't have any ulterior motives. I just wanted to experience a maid cafe.

Mrs. Managi, are you overthinking this?

"If you like, I can wear a maid outfit for you when we get back~"

Faced with Nakiri Managi's teasing and jokes, Mu Xiaoxiao turned her head and stared at her, her gaze sweeping back and forth from head to toe, making Managi feel uncomfortable all over. Then Mu Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "Mrs. Managi, I would rather see you in a JK uniform or a sailor uniform than a maid outfit. Could you grant me my little wish?"

Nakiri Managi: "..."

The beautiful married woman blushed slightly, whether from embarrassment or anger, it was hard to tell. As she stepped into the maid café with Mu Xiaoxiao, she gritted her teeth and said, "You actually made an old lady like me wear a sailor uniform? Xiaoxiao, are you trying to make me look bad?"

Welcome!

"That's true," Mu Xiaoxiao said as she entered the shop amidst the maids' greetings of "Welcome, Master." To be fair, the maids in the shop were quite pretty and of good quality. However, having seen so many beautiful women, especially top-tier beauties like Managi, Mu Xiaoxiao was already quite calm.

He continued chatting with his female companion, "Mrs. Managi, you don't look like an old lady at all now. You're no different from a woman in her prime in her twenties. Look around, aren't there a lot of people looking at you?"

Most of the customers in the maid cafe are male, who come for the gimmick of maids. But when those otaku see a stunningly beautiful woman like Nakiri Managi, the maids around them immediately lose their appeal. Some secretly stare at her, while others stare in a daze.

This shows that Nakiri Managi's charm is indeed exaggerated.

“That was also given to me by you, Xiaoxiao,” Nakiri Managi knew the reason for her change. She was not proud at all. She also glanced around and found that not only men, but also women were looking in this direction, including the shop assistants and maids. Their eyes all fell on Mu Xiaoxiao.

Several shop assistants and maids even started vying for a chance to show off their faces here.

"Little Xiao, you're just as charming as ever. The shop assistants are all starting to get jealous of you."

As she said this, one could vaguely detect a hint of jealousy in Mrs. Managi's tone.

"I think it's not just the shop assistants, Managi, you also want to compete with them for attention, don't you?"

"Pooh."

Nakiri Managi blushed and spat, then picked up her coffee and took a sip to cover it up, "Narcissist!"

Mu Xiaoxiao smiled and didn't continue. She and Nakiri Managi enjoyed the atmosphere. Mrs. Managi also felt that having coffee here, sitting and resting for a while, chatting with Xiaoxiao, and talking to each other was a nice and enjoyable experience.

Besides... could those maids please stop coming over to chat all the time? They're really an eyesore.

Managi was getting a little impatient. "Xiaoxiao, let's go. It's about time to go home."
