Be the Beast a Woman Wants You to Be / Komachi's Resolve: Fighting the World for Her Brother ...
Ding-dong!
That's the maximum value.
"Huh? You're kidding me?" Komachi's ahoge (cowlick) stood up.
Although not at its maximum, Utaha Kasumigaoka had feelings for Shirou from the beginning. After finding the world, she suffered a lot of fright and grievances, and it was Shirou found her, so her affection level was already 90 points from the start.
If Shirou hadn't heard her voice, or hadn't lifted the lid, they might have missed their chance.
Therefore, as Literature Department and a romance novelist, Utaha Kasumigaoka naturally possesses the romantic temperament of a poet, and thus she genuinely believes in fate.
Yes, the girl believed that fate had brought her and Shirou together. There must be Shirou Red Thread of destiny connecting them.
Under such psychological suggestion, every good point Shirou shows is magnified infinitely, and even the slightest act of kindness is interpreted as gentleness and consideration. Perhaps this is the kind of irrationality that girls in love can be.
Driven by his survival instincts, Shirou would unconsciously flirt with women in various ways, making it difficult for Utaha Kasumigaoka Shirou not to develop feelings for him!
Every act of gentlemanly care, every exchange of glances, increased his favorability. In that moment, he caught the girl who nearly fell, officially raising Utaha Kasumigaoka's favorability to a sufficient level.
If I were to say 100 points, it would mean that no matter how you confess your feelings, even if you use a pull tab from a soda can as a ring, you would absolutely accept it.
So now she's at least over 120, maybe even over 150.
The combined favorability score between the two exceeded two hundred.
Yes, love doesn't require both parties to have equal feelings. In fact, one party will always give more, and not thinking about this is the key reason why a relationship can stay passionate.
Komachi suddenly raised her two little hands and cheered, "The time has come! So please, brothers, give me the hottest kiss ever!"
"Huh?!"
"The only way to break the curse is through a kiss! Stories like Beauty and the Beast, The Frog Prince, Shrek and the Princess —all these precedents have proven this! Hurry! Don't hesitate! While our hearts are connected now, all curses will be dissolved by the power of love!" Komachi said, clenching her fist.
Shirou remembered what the Evil God Girl had said; she had indeed mentioned the need for close-range mucosal contact.
Komachi covered her mouth and laughed, saying, "Of course, you can make a baby too, but the situation is urgent right now, so Komachi suggest you go outside first and then try."
"What? Shirou-kun, are you shy?" Utaha Kasumigaoka gently tossed her hair, looking at Shirou with a confident, older sisterly smile as she provocatively asked.
Shirou's gaze locked onto the provocative girl's full, round lips. To kiss or not to kiss?
In this day and age, few people would want to be called harmless or worse than animals, right?
Chapter 750 Be the Beast a Woman Wants You to Be
"Brother, please make the choice a man should make! But if you feel nervous, Komachi will buy you some time! However, the enemy is no pushover either, so! You'd better hurry up and make your move!!!"
As Komachi spoke, she took a step towards the group of giants chasing after them, pulled out Magic Wand, and this time transformed into an Oni Tribe girl wearing a purple kimono, with a bunch of flesh-colored horns growing on her forehead. Although she had the body of a young girl, for some reason, she was full of a lewd aura.
However, at the same time, she also exuded a kingly aura. Although she herself seemed unaware of it, no one dared to ignore the sense of danger emanating from within her.
Komachi landed barefoot on the ground, twirling her body like a dancer, letting the hem of her kimono sway freely. A cynical smile appeared on her lips as she beckoned to the approaching giant.
At this moment, the group of people who had turned into monsters also sensed the threat and ran over, first casting a challenging look at Komachi.
"Roar!!"
The monsters roared in unison, stirring up a storm that made the girl's hair flutter.
"Hehehe, why don't you all join me for a drink?"
Komachi, transformed into Shuten-doji, wore a long kimono that trailed on the ground. She picked up the enormous sake gourd, turned it upside down, and let the sake drip onto the ground. It flowed down the floor, curving downwards, and soon reached the other end of the street.
The liquor changed color as it spilled more and more onto the ground, pooling together to form puddles, then swamps, and finally a small pond. The smell of liquor and mist made it impossible to distinguish what was actually happening.
Komachi raised her red sake bowl and drank sake, but for the giants, it was a deadly poison—a deadly toxin that would kill anyone who touched it.
To prevent outsiders from disturbing Shirou and Utaha Kasumigaoka, Komachi created a fountain of purple sake, forming a circle around the two of them.
Shirou was protected inside, knew he shouldn't waste his sister's kindness. He gazed at Utaha Kasumigaoka with a somewhat confused look in his eyes. He had always maintained a gentlemanly attitude and a certain distance from women, a principle his parents had instilled in him when he was young.
When Utaha Kasumigaoka extended the invitation to him, he was a young and vigorous man, especially since his body was in the most restless stage of adolescence. It would be a lie to say he wasn't tempted; it could be said to be human instinct.
But in this kind of attraction, how much is emotion, and how much is desire?
He couldn't possibly do something like a one-night stand followed by indifference. Besides, Utaha Kasumigaoka was his senior from the same school, and they weren't strangers seeking solace from each other.
This is a knot in Shirou's heart. It's not that he doesn't understand Utaha Kasumigaoka's feelings, but the key is that there's more than one girl like her.
Neither of them are bad girls; they are both genuinely sincere in their feelings. The more sincere they are, the less Shirou can accept or reject them.
Having only a flirtatious relationship with the girls means at least they haven't hurt each other. But if things go any further, the relationship will inevitably be broken, and while some will be happy, others will be sad.
Shirou's ultimate goal is to bring happiness to everyone, and everything seems to fall into a contradictory cycle.
But... will the girls find happiness if they don't make a choice?
At least in such a world, no one can attain true happiness.
"Yes, at this point I should just follow my heart, at least I won't have too many regrets."
Having figured things out, Shirou's eyes pierced through the fog, shining as brightly as moonlight streaming through the clouds in the dead of night. No maiden's boudoir could block out this light.
"Shirou-kun ..." Utaha Kasumigaoka felt a pang of unease under that gaze. Although she had taken the initiative, she had her own views on love. She believed that the happiness she wanted should be actively pursued by herself. Although she herself knew that her methods were actually quite clumsy, at least they did not achieve the smooth results described in the book.
However, while she can be proactive when she wants to, she becomes as flustered as a girl on her first date when the person she likes approaches her.
"Roar!!!" The leading black giant, based on Alexander, let out a huge roar at this moment, followed by the other smaller black giants.
The black aura around him grew thicker and thicker, and his size doubled again, continuing to grow larger and larger—five meters, six meters, seven meters... In the blink of an eye, he had already surpassed the tallest clock tower in the town.
The pool of purple poison gas that Komachi had previously emitted has now shrunk to the size of a footpad under the enlarged giant's feet, and no longer has much of an impact.
"Waaaaah!!! Brothers! Hurry up! Otherwise, Komachi won't be able to hold on much longer!" Komachi was so scared that she quickly ran away. No matter how successfully she cosplayed Shuten-doji, she was still just a middle school girl.
At that moment, Shirou reached out his hands, cupped Utaha Kasumigaoka's blushing face, lowered his head, and moved closer to her red lips.
With a deafening roar, a thunderclap that seemed to shatter the heavens and earth resounded.
At this moment, the world launched its final counterattack, resorting to any means necessary to stop Shirou and Utaha Kasumigaoka. Thick, dark clouds gathered in the sky, a vast expanse of black, over a hundred meters thick, seemingly trying to completely block out the sunlight. The earth darkened, and the surroundings grew increasingly dark, as if night had fallen.
The malice of the entire world, a dark aura representing the resentment of creators and readers, was rapidly converging on this place, as if to plunge the entire world into darkness.
"In that case... there's no other way! I didn't expect it to come to this so quickly, forcing us to resort to such desperate measures. But my brother has improved a bit, and now he's just one step away. At this crucial moment, Komachi has to help him to the very end."
Komachi muttered to herself as she put away Shuten-doji's transformation and drew all the cards in her hand. Having received all this equipment from an unknown old foreign man, she now possessed cards of all types, each corresponding to Servant, someone with whom Komachi shared a certain destiny.
For example, the assassin Shuten-doji, the Magecraft's guardian girl, the swordsman Okita Souji, and the archer Chloe —from the perspective of the FGO game, they are simply Gil and incredibly lucky.
However, the remaining cards are slightly different. They are not the traditional Lancer, Rider, and Berserker. One card is Altergo with a mirror image of a clown on the left and right, another is Mooncancer with a faceless ribbon girl, and the last one is the most special. The picture on it is a dark chaos, and the card back is also completely different from the other cards. It is BEAST, which is a dark reception of black, representing the destruction brought by humanity.
Chapter 751 Komachi's Resolve: Fighting the World for Her Brother
Although the guardian wielding the red sword in Alter GO and the Indian god of wealth in Mooncancer are both quite powerful Servant, if you want to fight against a world, you really have to use a world-destroying monster.
Komachi drew the black card with a red glow from the inside of the deck.
Komachi searches for Shirou through her dreams, and by chance, she comes to this world. In this story, she is assigned the important guiding role of a spirit. However, in this world full of malice, her character is not so simple.
In the story's world, Komachi is the spirit who guides the protagonist to escape the castle's crisis, but this is only the surface appearance. In this world, there is no such thing as unprovoked help; the spirit naturally has its own motives.
vgj
Just like in the first part of the story where the hero rescues the human Princess, the knight wearing a helmet and full-body armor who stormed the Demon Princess's castle and rescued the imprisoned princess was not actually the real hero. He was an orc general who ambushed and killed the hero's team and then impersonated him to escort the Princess to a neighboring country.
The villainous character is clearly a setup for a sequel, and he might very well be the big boss in the second part.
Without relying on the protagonist's plot armor, the only entity capable of fighting the ultimate boss is another ultimate boss.
Komachi then laid out a series of cards. In reality, even if she couldn't use cards to transform so freely, she wouldn't be able to do so. This is unlike others who possess superhuman magical powers, such as Illya, who is the Lesser Grail, and Miyu, who is the Miyu of the gods.
Or they are girls who are formally trained Magecraft and are naturally skilled in combat, such as Rin Tohsaka and Luviagelita Edelfelt from the world of Prisma Illya. Komachi, on the other hand, has no foundation and does not possess any magic power, so she is actually the weakest in terms of strength.
Perhaps the mysterious old man who gave her the True Magic costume also knew this, knowing that Komachi would hardly achieve much as magical girl in the real world, so he took a different approach and created a new True Magic with special effects in the dream.
In reality, Komachi is just an ordinary, cute middle school girl who likes her older brother, but things are different in dreams. In dreams, no life force is required; it's all just imagination.
It is a completely idealistic world, meaning that one's strength is determined by the size of one's mind. Moreover, it is not limited by the strength of the physical body. Even if the world in her dream were destroyed, it would not have any real impact on her; at most, she would only experience some mental fatigue.
More than magic or Divine Power, what's needed is a person's heartfelt imagination of the world. In order to find her brother, she experiences a completely new world every night, witnessing various worldviews, customs, and cultures, which has broadened Komachi's horizons and mindset considerably.
Within the realm of all humankind, she is also one of the most open-minded individuals. Reading ten thousand books may be beyond her reach, but traveling ten thousand miles is something she has truly accomplished. Moreover, she traveled these ten thousand miles by skipping between different worlds, without repeating any.
So here she has no burdens and can do anything.
"Wait! Komachi! What are you trying to do? You don't need to force yourself to go that far!" Shirou, Komachi suddenly became serious, had a bad feeling and looked at her sister to remind her.
Hearing Shirou's worried words, Komachi looked at her brother with a playful wink and said with a grin:
"Hehe, it's your fault for teaching me to do things that Komachi, so it doesn't matter."
"It's Komachi's turn! Draw a card!!!" Komachi's other six cards shimmered, seemingly resisting something, but in the end, they released their energy and flowed into that special card, gradually erasing the black on the card and completing the sublimation. At this moment, Komachi obtained a rather special card.
After Shirou's battle with the white god ended, Komachi inquired around and learned about her brother. She learned that not long ago, her brother had been a god who created countless parallel worlds. So... as the sister of a Creator God, even if Komachi is not as good as her brother, she should still be more than qualified as the Earth Mother Goddess who created gods during the creation of the world!
Although it sounds arrogant, that's really what the girl thought. Or rather, if she didn't go to this extent, she wouldn't be able to share some of the responsibility with her brother!
"Komachi!!!" Shirou sensed something was wrong. This immense magical power, even in the world of dreams, could not possibly come without a price.
"Brother! No matter what kind of monster it is, Komachi will find a way to protect you! But after that, Komachi won't have the energy to do anything else for you, so it all depends on your performance! Of course! Komachi knows that brother will definitely be fine. After all, brother has never let Komachi down!" the girl said with a playful smile.
The black card spun at an unprecedented speed, eventually merging into the star-shaped True Magic. It then flew to the girl's chest, merging into her body and undergoing a transformation unlike any before.
A colossal entity, as large as the earth itself, emerged from the ground, rising gradually. Komachi's hair turned a watery color and continued to grow, cascading down to the ground, while curly dragon horns sprouted from the sides of her head.
The form she takes is inherently variable; it can change its nature at will, becoming a dragon, a human, or even creating a new species.
The upper body is human, but the lower body is connected to a black, mud-like substance. This substance comes from the imaginary space and does not exist in the world. (Monthly fee group 694936135) There is no limit to its quantity. If it continues to flow out, it could even cover the entire world.
Black mist, black wind, and Black Mud collided with each other, creating a waterspout-like spectacle that swept the Black Mud into the dark clouds, transforming it into a violent storm. The torrential rain and gale, stained with Black Mud, swept over us without warning.
"Ah--~~~!!!" The girl opened her mouth and let out a long cry, which transformed into a long, transparent, straight sound wave that rushed towards the center of the gathering dark clouds in the sky.
Suddenly, the dark clouds churned and spun, a gaping hole appearing in them. However, the resentful clouds quickly gathered again, resembling a skull staring at the Tyrmatized Komachi, letting out a defiant roar.
"Waaaaah... I hate it so much! I feel so resentful!"
Chapter 752 The Kiss That Broke the Curse
This is a battle between the world and Mother World, where the spreading Black Mud is intertwined with black resentment, neither side willing to back down, and the two are entangled together.
From within the black mist, a giant several thousand meters tall appeared, raising its fist to smash towards the Tiamat Komachi. From the Black Mud, a dragon's tail emerged, blocking the giant's fist and bouncing it up.
"Roar!!!" A new arm sprouted from under the giant's armpit and slammed down on Komachi again. It possessed the most terrifying Monstrous Strength of a monster, reaching the A++ level. One strike of its arm could cause an earthquake.
Tiamat's body, still connected to the Black Mud, sprouted a pair of giant dragon wings covered in jet-black scales, which she used to protect herself and block the giant's fist.
The monster, which kept growing arms, now had hundreds of arms. A crimson beam of light swept across Tiamat's head, charring the giant's right arm and a tenth of its side into charcoal.
But the next moment, hundreds of arms sprouted from the giant's left side, punching Tiamat relentlessly.
Behind the giants lies the unfathomable resentment of a world, a resentment that will never be fully unleashed. And the Black Mud of the imaginary number is also infinite. The giants and Tiamat are constantly consuming each other.
This is a duel between two world-destroying monsters, representing the highest level of deities; every strike causes the heavens and earth to shatter. If such a thing were to happen in the real world, it would probably be the most terrible disaster in Human History since World War II.
Shirou will no longer be affected by the resentment in this world. Achieving happiness for everyone does not mean that misfortune will no longer exist in that world. Perhaps on the contrary, a certain degree of harm is also necessary.
He truly had no way to dispel the resentment of these people. It was a regrettable time, but more than that, Shirou cared about how the girl felt right now.
"Shirou-kun...? Could you please let go of me first?" With Shirou cupping her face in his hands, Utaha Kasumigaoka, their eyes locked, gave in first during the eye contact. It was the first time in her life she had ever had her face cupped like this, and she was incredibly shy. Although she didn't want to admit it, Utaha Kasumigaoka felt a sense of defeat.
"Yes, let's go on a date after we get out, Senpai." Shirou lifted Utaha Kasumigaoka's chin and, before the stunned and somewhat bewildered girl could reply, kissed her lips.
"Mmm..." Utaha Kasumigaoka opened her eyes wide in surprise at first, but then she closed them and became immersed in her kiss with Shirou.
"You were the one who provoked me first, weren't you?" Shirou conveyed this to the girl through his actions.
Their tongues intertwined, feeling the warmth of each other's bodies, as if igniting something. They embraced passionately, lingering in each other's arms, oblivious to the outside world, completely immersed in the kiss.
At this very moment, the stronger the binding force of a curse, the more it relies on the constraints of rules. When the protagonist finds a lover who is not related by blood, the curse that made the protagonist's lover a sibling is naturally broken.
The curse of this world is as meaningless as swine fever occurring in a world without pigs, or the spread of avian influenza in an environment where no birds can live.
The swelling resentment and malice lost their target at this moment. The world was like a balloon that had been pumped up to its limit, and suddenly the hand holding the mouthpiece was released. The balloon broke free from the mouthpiece and began to fly and crash around aimlessly.
The giant outside, locked in combat with Komachi, who had transformed into Tiamat, suddenly took a few steps back. Its entire body underwent a strange transformation, and the vengeful spirits that made up its enormous body began to stir. Their arms, shoulders, and other parts of their bodies twisted and turned, revealing human faces that began to argue and hurl insults.
"Damn it! They actually did it! Those two scoundrels!"
"Burn them! Burn them! Why should only they get happiness?!"
"As expected, only those who are successful in real life can find love. Damn it! All successful people deserve to die!"
"Even though I love you so much and spent all the money I earned from working on you, you still abandoned me for money!"
"What do you mean by 'let's be good friends'? Would you ask your friend to queue up in the middle of the night to buy tickets for you, just so you can go on a date with your crush?!"
"It's all your men's fault for being so indecisive and dragging their feet! That's why you missed your chance!"
