Tentacle Monster Conquest Manual

He patted the crow on his shoulder. "Resolved? Looks like it went smoothly. Well done."

Then he scattered some feed, watched the crows happily scrambling for the food, and felt the crows' intimacy with him. Commanding them was not troublesome; they were basically like wielding an arm. Although Mu Xiaoxiao did not understand the language of crows, this skill allowed him to communicate with the animals.

"Xiaoxiao, we're back! Huh? Where is he?"

Mu Xiaoxiao, who was enjoying the breeze on the rooftop, saw Chizuki and Reina returning from afar. They had even brought back a prisoner. She felt it was unnecessary, since she already knew all the information she could get from the prisoner.

As for a powerful figure like Ayanokouji Atsomi, it would be difficult to bring him down with one or two minor characters, even if they were witnesses. Mu Xiaoxiao touched the crows around her again, "You can rest here. The patrol work in the vicinity will be left to you. If you encounter anyone suspicious, we'll rely on you to call the police."

"Gah—"

The crows responded with their calls. After Mu Xiaoxiao left the rooftop, the crows had a hearty meal before taking flight and becoming loyal guards, circling around the base building or perching on telephone poles, keenly observing their surroundings.

Japan has a large number of utility poles, and the number is increasing every year. Because of frequent earthquakes, power lines are often erected in the air, which provides habitats for many birds. With this layer of monitoring, the safety of the religious group's base is also guaranteed.

Besides crows, there are also stray cats and dogs that can often be seen in the city, especially kittens. Abandoned kittens can often be seen in various places, and Mu Xiaoxiao has taken them all home and specially prepared a pet room for them to live in.

……

"Meow~"

"Meow meow~~"

"So cute!" Sicheng Xingli and Nanao Akane were admiring the kittens in the pet room. Even Liulichuan Tsubaki couldn't help but be charmed by their adorable appearance. However, whenever Sicheng Xingli couldn't control her girlish heart and tried to approach the kittens, they would always dodge her.

"Meow--!!"

I'm about to explode.

"Why?" Akane Nanao was also dumbfounded. "Why are they so hostile towards us?"

"It's less about rejection and more about fear?" Rurikawa Tsubaki noticed the kittens' emotions and slowly reached out her hand, but the kittens dodged her. It wasn't until Rurikawa Tsubaki poured out a bowl of cat food that the nervous kittens slowly approached. However, judging from their cautious and wary expressions, they were still looking around.

“Although Tsubaki isn’t allowed to touch them, at least we can get close to them now. Is it because Tsubaki brings them food every day?” Anri asked curiously. “If we get to know them slowly, our relationship will definitely improve.”

Sayu Ogiwara walked in with a cat toy. "Everyone, I brought this. Maybe the kittens will be interested."

Before Hagiwara Sayu could even take out the cat toy, several kittens pounced on her feet and rubbed against her affectionately. This scene stunned Nanao Akane and the others nearby, who exclaimed in disbelief, "Wait, why?!"

“Perhaps it’s because we’re different from Sayu?” Tsubaki Rurikawa seemed to have discovered the truth. “We’ve undergone a small evolution, and our lives have transcended the realm of ordinary people. For such young creatures, this might have felt threatened.”

"Is that so?" Shiki Anri clapped her hands and looked at the bewildered Ogihara Sayu. "So Sayu is just an ordinary girl. These kittens don't feel threatened by her, which is why they are close to her."

Ogiwara Sayu: "..."

Shayou's expression visibly twisted. "I'm not happy at all that you're saying this... But isn't Xiaoxiao just like you? Why are all these kittens so affectionate towards him?"

Akane Nanao spread her hands and said, "It's probably because Xiao Xiao is very popular. He has a lot of charm. Not only girls, but even these little animals want to stick to him every day."

"Xiaoxiao is special, just think of it that way."

Seeing Akane and the others staring at her interaction with the kitten with envious eyes, Ogiwara Sayu felt a little helpless. They envied her, but how could she not envy them? Akane and the others wanted to play with the kitten, but she wanted to play with Xiaoxiao even more…

Shayou blushed and sighed inwardly. Normally, she and Xiaoxiao would have had a chance to develop into... that kind of relationship, but who would have thought that her mother would beat her to it?

Damn it!

I was supposed to be here first, but—Saya was increasingly unwilling to give up. Even though her mother especially wanted her to back down, Saya wanted to try anyway, to try and break through her relationship with Xiaoxiao.

In the eyes of the students at school, she and Xia Hai and the others were partners and sisters. Xia Hai and the others thought so too. Only Sha You herself was quite bothered. Sometimes when she saw their intimate behavior with Mu Xiaoxiao, she couldn't help but feel sad, feeling like she was a third wheel.

"so……"

Tsubaki Rurikawa, who had been secretly watching Sayu Ogiwara's expression, blinked her eyelashes, seemingly understanding something.

Chapter 361 Ogiwara Sayu Takes the Initiative

What's done is done. Even if Mom takes him away, it doesn't mean I can't take him back. It's just competing with Mom for a man. Back in Hokkaido, I dared to compete with Mom for Xiaoxiao. Now that Mom isn't here, isn't this an even better opportunity?

I can't waste my time like this anymore. I'm happy playing around and eating and drinking with Xia Hai and Xiao Qian every day, but I really want to get closer to Xiao Xiao and do things that only lovers do.

I should take action immediately. As long as I take the initiative, Xiao Xiao shouldn't refuse me. After all, we've joined the Concubine God Society, and he should accept that I'm his woman. As for my lack of experience, it doesn't matter.

This would make Xiaoxiao even happier. Recalling the scene of herself being taken home by Mu Xiaoxiao when she was homeless, Ogiwara Sayu pursed her lips. On the surface, she continued to tease the kitten with the cat toy, but in reality, her eyes gradually became resolute as she lowered her pretty face.

"Chizuka and the others are back—"

Sayu Ogiwara knew that Chizuka had gone out on errands with Reina-nee. In school, they called her Reina-sensei, but outside, everyone called her Reina-nee. Whether at school or outside, Reina-nee was always so reliable.

Even Dong Huajiang had no objections to her and trusted her completely.

As for Chizuka, Sayu knew of her formidable strength. Chizuka was their teacher during their regular workouts at the gym, and Sayu was also one of their students. Despite being the same age, Sayu wondered how Chizuka managed to train so well.

"Xiaoxiao~" Ogiwara Sayu waved to Mu Xiaoxiao when she saw her and quickly ran over. Speaking of which, Xiaoxiao is usually surrounded by Anri and the others, and she can only be squeezed on the outside. This time, it feels a little... unexpectedly smooth.

She didn't notice the ambiguous look that Rurikawa Tsubaki was secretly casting at her.

"I heard that Chizuka captured an enemy?"

Mu Xiaoxiao had finished asking her questions. In the face of mind control, everyone is equal. There is no need for interrogation or torture. "He is not an enemy. He is a small fry, a delinquent who can be found anywhere on the street. He doesn't even know who his employer is. This Ayanokoji Atsuomi is more cautious than I imagined. He has distanced himself from all relationships and is not afraid of getting burned at all."

“But won’t that man discover the existence of our Hime-gami Society? Won’t we be targeted?” As she spoke, Ogiwara Sayu became worried again. “If it’s really dangerous, we can leave Tokyo and go back to Hokkaido.”

“It’s certain that she’s being targeted, but it doesn’t mean she should run away like a stray dog. In the end, she’s just a politician, there’s nothing to be afraid of,” Mu Xiaoxiao noticed that Sha You was a little down, so she put her hand on Sha You’s head and gently stroked the girl’s head and her soft hair.

"I know you're worried about me, Sayu, but it's okay. You should know I'm really amazing~"

"Mmm," the girl murmured as her head was patted by the person she liked. She made a sound like a cat, perhaps because she had just caught the scent of kittens. Her seductive voice sounded like she was in heat, and her cheeks flushed pink.

"It won't be long before he finds out about the existence of the Consort God Society. Xiaoxiao, what do you plan to do?" Lingnai asked.

“If that guy tries something underhanded, we’ll play it underhanded with him. If he tries to use his power to put pressure on us, we’re not afraid of him with Mira, Ruifei, and Yiyue around. Let’s see what he does,” Mu Xiaoxiao said, winking. “Lingnai, you can all stand on your own now. I’ll leave that Ayanokouji Atsuomi entirely to you. If you can’t handle it, I’ll step in.”

"Xiao Xiao is right. In order for everyone to be able to stand on their own, shouldn't you also try harder?" Si Cheng Xingli's sexy body began to lean against the boy, with all sorts of ambiguous squeezing. That big thunderbolt swayed, and after being flattened, it bounced back to its original shape. It was really exaggeratedly elastic.

"Everyone's [Lovers] skills are practically waiting to be developed!"

Mu Xiaoxiao: "..."

Mu Xiaoxiao glanced silently at the girls around her who were looking at her, her eyes twitched, and for some reason her kidneys felt a little sore. Fortunately, Liulichuan Chun came out to smooth things over for her, "There's plenty of time. These things can't be rushed. Just take it slow. As long as you can increase a little bit every day, that's fine."

"Master must be tired too. Would you like to take a bath? The hot water is ready," the down-on-her-luck noble maid smiled.

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you, Tsubaki."

Rurikawa Tsubaki shook her head, a hint of apology appearing on her face. "I still need to clean the room, Master, so I might not have time to scrub your back... How about letting Sayu do it for me?"

The surroundings suddenly fell silent, and even Mu Xiaoxiao realized that Tsubaki was helping them out. As for Sayu... Facing the various gazes, Tsubaki remained calm and composed, seemingly unconcerned about the surrounding stares. Her eyes were only on her master, and her smile remained unchanged.

Mu Xiaoxiao then looked at the surprised Shayou. Ogihara Shayou stared at her with wide eyes, looking at her nervously. Seeing her hamster-like expression, the boy wanted to laugh. "Shayou, if you don't want to, then forget it."

"Yes! I do!"

She spoke a little hastily, well, too hastily, she was simply impatient. Only after she finished speaking did she realize that she was obviously too eager, and she quickly covered her mouth, feeling extremely embarrassed and indignant. Mu Xiaoxiao found it a little funny.

"Sayu, then I'll leave it to you. Let's go."

Mu Xiaoxiao naturally wouldn't feign a refusal. In any case, he already considered all the women of the Consort Society as his own women, so there was no need to hide it anymore. Shayou and Mrs. Risa... weren't the first mother and daughter pair, so he would get used to it.

"Uh-huh."

Sha You, like a frantic little chick pecking at rice, followed Mu Xiaoxiao. Watching the two leave, Si Cheng Xingli had a strange expression. "So, Sha You is going to take the initiative?"

“That child is actually quite insecure,” Rurikawa Tsubaki said with a sigh. “Although he gets along well with everyone, his insecurity shows when he’s in front of his master.”

"Tsubaki, how do you know everything?" Is this maid really omnipotent? It was nothing when she was a young lady, but after falling on hard times and becoming a maid, she's become even more outstanding. It feels like she's good at everything, which puts a lot of pressure on me, a fellow maid!

Why would such an all-powerful maid appear? This doesn't make sense.

"I'm not that good. It's just that Sayu is somewhat like me."

"Huh? Do you two look alike? You don't look alike at all, do you?"

Rurikawa Tsubaki smiled but didn't explain to Anri that no matter how perfect she seemed in other people's eyes, only Tsubaki herself knew that she wasn't that capable. As a former young lady, she wasn't good at many tasks when she first became a maid.

Especially the food; it can't compare to apricots.

She has been working hard to train, and even now, in terms of strength alone, she is not as good as Chizuka. She may be excellent in her studies, but Chizuru and the others are no worse than her. Really speaking, Tsubaki doesn't have anything particularly outstanding.

The reason she left everyone with the impression of being all-powerful is probably because of her complete dedication to her master and her unreserved giving to Xiaoxiao. The driving force behind Rurikawa Tsubaki's dedication is the girl's sense of inferiority.

Just like Sayu, Tsubaki also feels inferior deep down. If Natsumi and the others knew this, they would be shocked. Even Reina didn't notice, but it's genuine. Tsubaki's inferiority complex is hidden in her heart, just unknown to others.

Of course, after spending so much time with Xiaoxiao, her inferiority complex had long been melted away by her master's love. Liulichuan Chun had been reborn, and she naturally hoped that Shayou could also break free from her cocoon and become a butterfly, just like herself.

----------

In the bathroom, Ogiwara Sayu's heart was pounding. After carefully taking off her clothes, she looked at her slender, delicate, and cute body in the mirror. However, despite her cute and petite figure, Ogiwara Sayu didn't find her particularly beautiful.

Girls, can anyone understand? I have so many stunning beauties at home, all with big breasts, slim waists, and long legs. Surrounded by such beauties, I feel so ordinary. I'm under so much pressure.

"I wonder if it will appeal to Xiaoxiao," Ogiwara Sayu deliberately didn't wear a bath towel, but only took a regular towel as she stepped into the bathroom.

When they were in Hokkaido, she dared to take the initiative to invite Xiaoxiao on a date. How bold Sayu was back then! She wasn't afraid of her mother, whom she had feared for many years, and dared to confront her directly. But after returning to Tokyo and spending more time with Haruno Kaori and the others, she became more and more timid.

I can understand. Just like Tsubaki said, she felt inferior. Such a beautiful girl put more and more pressure on Ogiwara Sayu, making her feel increasingly inferior.

But today is an opportunity, a great opportunity to break all of this.

Especially when I think about my mother coming to Tokyo to meet Xiaoxiao again, and how I'll be nestled in her arms as her lover, it would be even better if I were pregnant. I'm sure my mother's expression at that time will be quite interesting, hehe.

Ogiwara Sayu, who was plotting against her mother, had a rather unscrupulous thought.

"Sayu, you—"

Mu Xiaoxiao was waiting by the bath. There was no one else in the huge bath. It was a specially built public bath, which was used by the high-ranking members of the cult for lewd parties. At this moment, it was probably to give Sha You some time.

No one.

Seeing the girl's delicate, naked body, Mu Xiaoxiao opened her mouth, "Didn't you wear a scarf?"

"Um... Xiaoxiao, don't you like it?"

Mu Xiaoxiao looked helpless. "How could I not like it? I just think that wearing a scarf would actually make it more alluring."

"Huh? Is that so? I don't really understand these things," Ogiwara Sayu laughed along. "I thought someone like me wouldn't be attractive to you, after all, my breasts aren't as big as Anri's or the others, and my butt isn't perky either, I'm just average."

"You underestimate yourself. Someone like you would definitely turn heads anywhere. Anri and the others have already surpassed the realm of ordinary people. Once you evolve as well, your body will also evolve towards a more perfect direction. All of this will gradually grow."

"So, Xiaoxiao, tonight, let me grow tonight... okay?" Shayou said emotionally, her face flushed.

"So straightforward?"

Mu Xiaoxiao wasn't very surprised. He just sighed, "Back then, you even wanted to do escort work for a meal, but I stopped you. I never thought that in the end, I would be the one who benefited."

"I'm so lucky to have met you at that time and to have been taken home by you, otherwise... I would be so desperate right now, right? Xiaoxiao, I like you, I like you so much~ It's so good to have met you."

She threw herself into the boy's arms, unable to control her emotions any longer, and kissed him fiercely.
