Tentacle Monster Conquest Manual

“This was just sent to me by Sister Ruifei, and you’ll probably receive it soon,” Jinmu Qianshu said, hands on her hips. “That means Xiaoxiao is transferring schools soon!”

"This is an exchange student, not a transfer student, right?" Matsubara Touka shook his head.

"It's all the same thing, anyway, Xiaoxiao won't be going to school with us anymore, which is a very serious matter," Nishiki Chizuki said, holding her head in her hands. "Who is this Otonokaki? We've never heard of her before, and she actually snatched Xiaoxiao away!"

“That’s not the point,” said the most mature and composed Ruomu, who had just checked. “The point is that Otonokizaka is an all-girls school.”

"..."

"..."

"..."

Even the air became very quiet.

Mu Xiaoxiao wasn't at the base, so the girls who wanted to ask him about the ins and outs of the matter could only bombard him with messages on their phones. Meanwhile, Mu Xiaoxiao had already arrived as promised to meet with the student council president of Otonokizaka.

……

At Kanda Akira Shrine in Chiyoda, Tojo Nozomi, dressed as a shrine maiden and with a rather voluptuous figure, stands next to her best friend. This beautiful girl with long purple twin tails exclaims in an exaggerated tone in a Kansai dialect.

“I also received the news… I almost thought it was a joke from the school, but it’s just an exchange student, not a transfer student,” Tojo Nozomi could tell her good friend was very angry, so she quickly comforted her, “It should be alright.”

“But this boy is surprisingly handsome,” Tojo Nozomi winked playfully. “He’ll definitely cause a sensation at school.”

It has already caused a sensation among the girls in Otonokizaka.

"That's what I'm worried about. I'm afraid that because of this guy's appearance, everyone won't be able to study properly..." As the student council president, Ayase Eli has always been thinking about the students and the school, and she has a serious and responsible personality.

In comparison, Nozomi Tojo, the vice president, was much more cheerful and less demanding. "Eri, you're too pessimistic. If this exchange student were a troublesome person, the chairman wouldn't have agreed to this. I just wonder if this exchange student is really as special as they look in the photos?"

Eli Ayase was speechless at her friend's words, "Nozomi, when did you become such a fangirl?"

"I'm not a fangirl, I'm just curious."

As Nozomi Tojo spoke, she mysteriously pulled out a tarot card. "Actually, I did a divination last night. This exchange student named Mu Xiaoxiao... is not simple. His appearance may bring new changes to Otonokizaka."

Not only Otonokizaka, but perhaps even Eli and her own fate will be brought to their end because of him. Although the divination information is not very clear, it is not a bad thing. Therefore, Tojo Nozomi not only does not reject Mu Xiaoxiao, but also looks forward to it.

However... Eli Ayase has never believed in fortune telling or anything like that.

"Xi, I know you like divination and the supernatural, but these are all things that don't exist, all nonsense. You don't need to..."

As they were talking, the approaching footsteps interrupted Ayase Eli's next words. The two girls turned their heads in unison and saw a boy stepping on the stone steps, passing the torii gate, and entering the shrine.

Exactly the same as in the photo, no, the real person seems even more attractive than in the photo, which stunned Ayase Eli and Tojo Nozomi upon seeing the person. Is this person a succubus? Even the blonde mixed-race student council president couldn't help but stare at her with a heavy gaze.

However, Mu Xiaoxiao did not look at the two female protagonists he remembered. Instead, he kept staring at the shrine in front of him. He had noticed it from the moment he stepped through the torii gate. There was a sinister and ominous aura permeating the shrine.

Ordinary people can't see it, but he can clearly see the dark clouds that fill the sky above the main hall of the shrine.

Before Ayase Eli could speak first, Mu Xiaoxiao said seriously, "There is an evil spirit hiding in this shrine."

Eli Ayase: "???"

Tojo Nozomi: "???"

Unexpectedly, the first thing she said after meeting was baffling. While Eri was still in a daze, Tojo Nozomi frowned unhappily, "Little Mu, this is a shrine of the gods. How can you say such things? It's very disrespectful to Kami."

She actually replied seriously!!

Eli Ayase felt a chill run down her spine.

"Tojo Nozomi?" Mu Xiaoxiao finally turned her gaze to her, blinked, and noticed that the girl had a great figure. Although she couldn't compare to Kasumi or Anri, she was still quite good. After all, they were the heroines of many novels, so they were naturally different.

"you know me?"

"Of course, as a future classmate, I've naturally learned about it. Tojo Nozomi, do you believe that there are Kami in the world?"

“I believe you. Didn’t you see my shrine maiden outfit? Even though it’s just a part-time job, I believe in the existence of mysteries in the world.” Although Nozomi Tojo is usually a bit carefree, she is quite serious about this matter; she truly believes it.

Mu Xiaoxiao raised the corners of her mouth, "But unfortunately, there is no such thing as a Kami in the world, only all kinds of demons and monsters."

Tojo Nozomi's bright eyes blinked, her expression suspicious. "You mean, there are no gods in this world, but there are monsters, ghosts, and supernatural powers?"

"Yes, perhaps this world was just an ordinary world before, but it's different now. Supernatural forces do exist."

Tojo Nozomi, who was already interested in the supernatural, immediately had her eyes light up. "Mu-kun, are you serious? Can you let me see it?"

Eli Ayase, standing to the side, was stunned.

who I am? where am I? What am I doing?

These two completely ignored me and started chatting away, and what's more, they were on the same wavelength!

"You two are just delusional, stop right there!"

Chapter 387 Eli Ayase Accepts Reality

"Chuunibyou?"

"Chuunibyou?"

As if on the same wavelength, Mu Xiaoxiao and Tojo Nozomi both glared sharply at the blonde mixed-race beauty. Tojo Nozomi, beaming, grabbed her best friend's arm and said affectionately, "Eri, did you always think that my fortune telling was all just bluffing and fake?"

Nozomi Tojo's smile was a little dangerous.

“Nozomi,” even her best friend Eli couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat and forced a smile, “Even if you say that, I can’t believe those words… Okay, let’s not talk about whether these things are true or false, let’s get back to the main topic, Mu Xiaoxiao.”

Ayase Eli could only change the subject. Her sharp gaze swept over the exceptionally attractive young man, and then she said with a strange expression, "My name is Ayase Eli, and I am the student council president of Otonokizaka Academy. As you probably know, I am strictly opposed to the exchange student program."

"Even if the chairman supports it, I will still oppose it. So I hope you won't cause too much trouble during your time as an exchange student at Otonokizaka Academy, otherwise I will definitely find a way to expel you."

Eli Ayase was quite blunt, saying, "Little Mu, I didn't mean anything by it. It's just that Otonokizaka is an all-girls school, and you are the only male student here, so naturally I have to be strict with you."

Hearing the blonde girl's sharp words and seeing Ayase Eli's cold face, Mu Xiaoxiao nodded obediently, "Please don't worry, President, you don't need to be so hostile to me. I will behave myself. Besides, I came to Otonokizaka not just as an exchange student, but also to solve the problems in Otonokizaka."

Mu Xiaoxiao adopted a mercenary attitude, saying, "That's why the chairman agreed to my request."

"The problem with Otonokizaka? What's wrong with Otonokizaka Academy?"

Eli Ayase frowned, puzzled.

"Doesn't the president know? Otonokizaka is facing the danger of closing down because of difficulties in recruiting new students."

"The school is being closed down?!"

Eli and Nozomi exclaimed in surprise. The two best friends looked at each other in disbelief. As members of the student council, they naturally knew that the number of students in Otonokizaka was decreasing year by year, but they did not expect it to be so serious that it had reached the point of closing down the school.

The thought of losing her school made Eli Ayase anxious; it was clear she cared deeply about it.

"How could it be so serious? That's why the chairman made you an exchange student. Wait! The chairman doesn't want to reform Otonokizaka and turn it into a co-educational school, does he?" Tojo Nozomi seemed to have guessed the truth, but Mu Xiaoxiao just twitched the corner of her mouth.

Well, let them misunderstand like that.

It's really inconvenient for me to explain.

“Co-educational schools and all that,” Ayase Eli instinctively resisted. Otonokizaka had always been a traditional all-girls school, and she felt that not only she, but all the students would not be used to such a reform, but it was indeed the best method.

Seeing their worried expressions, Mu Xiaoxiao cleared her throat and broke the silence, "It doesn't necessarily have to be a co-educational school. There might be other better ways. In fact, closing down schools is only one of the reasons. Another reason is what I just mentioned."

Mu Xiaoxiao changed the subject, "This world is not peaceful. More and more demons and monsters are appearing in the world, including in schools. In order to ensure the safety of students, the chairman invited me to handle these supernatural events."

Eli Ayase: "..."

Why is this person starting again?

“Mu Xiaoxiao, if you promote superstitious things like this, you’ll easily get the police knocking on your door.” In Japan, there are tens of thousands of similar mystical religious organizations, all sorts of oddities. “I don’t want Otonokizaka to be implicated by you, so please don’t say things like this again.”

She still didn't believe it.

"You've been behaving yourself in Otonokizaka, so I won't... I won't..."

Eli Ayase couldn't finish her sentence; it all stuck in her throat. She was frozen in place, staring wide-eyed at the shrine in front of her. Her usually aloof and beautiful face was filled with an expression of utter shock, as if she had seen a ghost.

She did see a ghost.

"Then, what is that?"

At the entrance of the shrine, amidst the gathering black mist, a ferocious monster revealed its true form, its eyes darting wildly from side to side before shooting towards the three people in front of the shrine.

The broom in Tojo Nozomi's hand fell to the ground. The shrine maiden's worldview shattered. "How is this possible? The shrine enshrines... a monster?"

She couldn't accept that this shrine was so ancient, and yet you're telling me the god inside was actually a demon or monster?

"It's not that monsters are being worshipped, but rather that monsters were born here," Mu Xiaoxiao secretly raised the corners of his mouth. He did it on purpose, deliberately stimulating the evil spirits and monsters of the shrine to awaken. It's not like when he first met Zi now.

Now ordinary people can see evil spirits, and more and more monsters are appearing in the world, leading to even more chaos in the future.

"How could this be? This... this must be a dream," Ayase Eli forced a stiff, blank laugh, her face deathly pale. "What should I do? No, don't come any closer..."

Her legs went weak. After the initial shock, a huge fear swept over her, making her unable to control her body. Her feet felt incredibly heavy and she couldn't move an inch. Tojo Nozomi managed to remain calm and grabbed Ayase Eli to pull herself back.

"Call the police! Eri, let's get out of here!!"

Xi is still quite reliable.

Although there was a hint of panic in her eyes, she was still able to maintain a clear mind.

"No need for that trouble," Mu Xiaoxiao stared expressionlessly at the roaring, charging demon. Sensing a foul stench, she raised her hand, and despite it being daytime, a moon-like light shone down from above.

Eli Ayase rubbed her eyes. If she wasn't mistaken, it was a silver-haired girl floating above Mu Xiaoxiao's head.

"Master, you always make me do the dirty and tiring work~" the yandere gothic loli said in a dark voice.

"There's nothing I can do. It's just that you, Yashiki-warashi, are naturally able to ward off these monsters."

The moonlight emanating from the little girl, who seemed like a ghost, enveloped the evil spirit. The latter roared and struggled within the light after its death, its voice quite pitiful, but it still could not withstand the power of the Yashiki-warashi. In the end, it turned into specks of light and disappeared into the air.

The shrine returned to its original state, unchanged from the beginning, as if what had just been seen was an illusion. However, Ayase Eli looked at the photos Nozomi had just taken and fell silent.

So, do monsters really exist in this world? Do superpowers and supernatural things really exist?

Although it was still hard to believe, she eventually accepted the reality; seeing was believing, and she couldn't deceive herself.

Looking at Mu Xiaoxiao again, she could no longer see him with the eyes of an ordinary person. She felt that he was shrouded in a mist, extremely mysterious. Just who was this mysterious exchange student?

As for Tojo Nozomi, she was already surrounding Mu Xiaoxiao, asking her all sorts of questions.

"Mu-kun, thank you so much. That monster just now... if it weren't for you, Eri and I wouldn't have been able to deal with it. What exactly was that monster?"

Chapter 388 Night visit to Nogizaka

"No matter how many times I watch it, I still find it terrifying."

Looking at the grotesque monster on the screen, Nozomi Tojo felt a chill run down her spine and was filled with lingering fear. She usually worked part-time at the shrine when she had time, since she enjoyed being a shrine maiden. She just never expected that there would be such a terrifying being in the shrine.

The thought of often being alone at the shrine, spending time with monsters, made Nozomi Tojo's expression falter.
