With My Cheat Ability Still Not Here, I Can Only Make Cringey Videos in the Japanese Countryside / The Treacherous Pure Yang Body ...

Writing Cringey Rural Videos in the Japanese Countryside Because My Cheat Hadn't Arrived

In the countryside of Saitama Prefecture, Miyauchi Hiyage—the culprit behind countless girls' sleepless nights—felt utterly calm.

He was patiently waiting for the reward he would receive after completing his diary for the first time.

"I've lived in this world for sixteen years before my cheat finally showed up. If it had come a few years later, I probably would've already achieved financial freedom and started slacking off," Miyauchi Hiyage muttered softly.

His previous life had been rather rough. His parents divorced when he was young, and no one cared for him. In middle school, he had been an invisible nobody in class. After graduation, he found a 996 job. With two hours of commuting every day, there was barely any time left for himself.

Then, while still young, he developed a terminal illness. Before dying, he had wanted to put on a brave face and use the money he had earned over the years to travel around the country during the final stretch of his life, recording his own story. Yet just after beginning his journey, he was hit in a car accident and transmigrated into this world.

In this life, he had become the son of the Miyauchi Family from the healing slice-of-life anime Non Non Biyori from his previous life. He and the Miyauchi Family's second daughter, Miyauchi Kouka, were twins.

Fortunately, the birth of this male child had not affected Miyauchi Renka's later arrival. Otherwise, if he had somehow lost such an obedient, sensible, and adorable little sister, Miyauchi Hiyage would have had nowhere to go with his regrets.

At first, Miyauchi Hiyage had only thought he had transmigrated into the world of a single anime. It was not until he saw a news report on television about Shinomiya Conglomerate chairman Shinomiya Gan'an and Suzuki Conglomerate chairman Suzuki Shirou attending a charity gala together that he confirmed he was in a crossover world.

To be honest, even though he did not have much ambition after getting a second chance at life, Miyauchi Hiyage still could not help feeling a faint stir in his heart.

Those girls from the anime of his previous life truly existed in this world, and he was the person who knew their real personalities and futures best.

However, having been born into the Miyauchi Family, which had three daughters, Miyauchi Hiyage, as the only boy, first had to keep an eye on his lazy eldest sister, then tutor his not-so-bright second sister, and also care for his little sister, who was eight years younger than him. It could be said that Miyauchi Hiyage, a guy who had never dated across two lifetimes, had skipped countless stages and experienced what it was like to raise daughters in advance.

Living in such an environment, Miyauchi Hiyage naturally had far greater resistance to women than in his previous life. He would not fall head over heels just from seeing a heroine from an anime.

As for the stirrings that came with puberty, he had rationally suppressed them after spending so many years raising his little sister like a daughter:

Dating? He did not even have a single small goal in hand. What the hell was he dating for?

Having been fortunate enough to gain a new life, was the meaning of his transmigration really just to use the memories in his head to steal all those anime heroines before anyone else, sleep with them, and eventually get killed by Shibari?

In this life, with a happy family, sisters, and a house, Miyauchi Hiyage had no interest in being a scumbag. He had to set a good example for his little sister.

Therefore, young people should focus on their careers. He had to raise his adorable little sister into a little princess before considering his personal issues.

Thus, as soon as he entered middle school, Miyauchi Hiyage began making trouble under the banner of "It is our duty to revitalize the local economy."

Relying on memories from his previous life, Miyauchi Hiyage found a camera, gathered a few idle young people from the village, and began filming rural videos.

Rural tyrants, rural Edisons, wilderness survival series, and all sorts of low-effort cringey videos—after filming them, he made Chinese, Japanese, and English versions and uploaded them to multiple websites, truly squeezing several shares of lousy money out of a single video.

After three years, leaving aside whether his reputation was good or bad, at the very least, Asahigaoka had made a name for itself.

Fruits and vegetables branded as Asahigaoka products sold like hotcakes. Holiday visitor traffic soared, and foreign tourists could occasionally be seen. Even Japan Agricultural Cooperatives, known as Japan's largest faction, sent senior executives over to discuss cooperation projects and learn from their experience.

As for Miyauchi Hiyage himself, aside from earning more wealth than an ordinary salaried worker could make in an entire lifetime, he had also gained immense fame and connections all over the country. If he ever wanted to enter politics in the future, those connections and that reputation would be assets he could not ignore.

However, Miyauchi Hiyage had no such plans right now. He only thought about multiplying the funds in his hands several times during his three years of high school. If possible, he wanted to find a suitable girl and have a relationship that would lead to marriage after graduation, striving to achieve financial freedom by the time he graduated and then return to his hometown with his wife to raise his sisters and have children.

When the Diary that had been sixteen years late appeared before him, Miyauchi Hiyage had still been considering how to get in touch with Eriri Spencer Sawamura and Shiina Mashiro, who was currently still in Britain, so he could have them work for him drawing manga and make a fortune.

Yet the business plan he had carefully prepared for so long—the high school arc—was completely overturned the moment he saw this Diary.

Now that he had a cheat, who still needed to rack their brains writing business plans? Wasn't earning money while lying down better?

However, Miyauchi Hiyage, who had read diary-themed web novels in his previous life, quickly realized that there was a high probability someone would see what he wrote in the diary.

Thinking of the protagonists in those diary web novels carelessly writing heartfelt words like "XXX is so cute, she's my wife" in their diaries, Miyauchi Hiyage could not help shuddering.

He did not want to die of embarrassment, nor did he intend to expose himself so openly before the girls who might possess diaries.

This world looked fairly normal, and Miyauchi Hiyage himself had not encountered any supernatural events in all his years of growing up.

But in a mishmash world that had incorporated who knew how many works, who knew whether all sorts of bizarre things had been mixed in?

Leaving everything else aside, Conan's side already had plenty that could not be ignored: absurdly unscientific combat power, Professor Agasa's black technology, APTX4869, which could make people grow young again, and the Black Organization, whose true scale and number of undercover agents were anyone's guess.

There was also Kaitou Kid, who shared Conan's world. In Kaitou Kid's own manga, a witch who wielded magic, Koizumi Akako, appeared, while Kaitou Kid himself stole gems in order to search for the Pandora Gem, said to grant immortality, and defeat another mysterious criminal organization.

And if Hoshino Ai was already pregnant, then in the future she would very likely give birth to two children who had reincarnated.

"And then there's Fuyuki City and Morioh. Everything looks normal, and Fuyuki City hasn't even suffered any major fires in the past fifty years, but just seeing those two place names is terrifying enough."

On March 21, 2012, in this world—the day the main cast of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Part 6 was wiped out—Miyauchi Hiyage wore sunglasses and stared at the sun all day, terrified that it would suddenly begin spinning faster and drag him into another new world.

Fortunately, that day ultimately passed without incident, which finally let Miyauchi Hiyage breathe a sigh of relief.

"In short, to make sure I don't get kidnapped and imprisoned by some yandere heroine, and to keep myself from catching the attention of any strange factions, I absolutely can't expose my identity before I have the ability to protect myself." Having been reborn, Miyauchi Hiyage's mind and memory were much better than in his previous life. This was also one of the reasons he had succeeded in his career in this life.

In an extremely short time, he had even thought of a solution. If one day he had no choice but to form an overly close connection with a Diary holder, he could write himself as an insignificant background character.

"In any case, let's first see whether Hoshino Ai has any reaction after I finish writing this diary entry."

Compared with those heroines who most likely did not pay much attention to idol groups, it was not conspicuous at all for a teenage boy like him to follow Hoshino Ai.

He had even joined Hoshino Ai's fan support group with an alt account before. Even if he showed up at one of Hoshino Ai's performances now, nobody would suspect him.

Just then, a notification sounded in his mind.

You have completed your diary for the first time and gained the qualification to draw a beginner reward.

Drawing beginner reward...

You have drawn the Pure Yang Body (Genshin Impact).

Reward has been distributed. Please continue maintaining the good habit of completing your diary every day.

The Scammy Pure Yang Body

Almost at the same moment Miyauchi Hiyage heard that notification, he felt an intense heat surge through his entire body.

It was only then that Miyauchi Hiyage recalled from his memories of his previous life exactly what this Pure Yang Body was.

"Fuck, of course I got the most troublesome possible outcome!" Miyauchi Hiyage cursed his newly acquired cheat while hurriedly stripping off his clothes.

It was only March, yet Miyauchi Hiyage had to strip down until he was wearing nothing but thin underwear and open the window to let the cold outdoor air into the room before the heat in his body finally subsided.

The Pure Yang Body sounded like some constitution found only in fantasy novels, and the Pure Yang Body in Genshin Impact truly lived up to that name.

In Genshin Impact, Chongyun, who possessed the Pure Yang Body, was an exorcist born into a family of demon-banishing practitioners. Since childhood, he had diligently trained in exorcist arts and martial techniques.

With a celestial body like the Pure Yang Body, the blood energy constantly radiating from his body was the greatest bane of evil spirits. He only needed to sit quietly for a while in a place haunted by strange evil entities to easily frighten away demons and ghosts.

Indeed, because of this constitution, Chongyun had practiced exorcism since childhood and constantly traveled through dangerous places, yet he had never personally seen a single evil spirit.

Judging solely by its immunity to all evil, the Pure Yang Body truly deserved its reputation as a celestial body.

But the problem was that the Pure Yang Body in Genshin Impact had side effects.

Miyauchi Hiyage touched his forehead. As expected, it was already burning. His perceived temperature was at least over forty degrees Celsius, a textbook high fever.

Yet this was merely the Pure Yang Body's normal temperature.

When summer came, Miyauchi Hiyage's body temperature could climb even higher. If he were in a hospital, they would probably issue a critical condition notice on the spot.

And this above-average body temperature came with a hot-blooded effect that made him easily lose his head. In Chongyun's character description in the game, it was mentioned that eating just a little chili caused him to lose control and completely release the nature he had always suppressed.

To suppress this constitution, Chongyun had set all sorts of restrictions for himself:

No hot water, no hot food, no spicy food, no thick clothing, no arguments, no anger, no going outside on scorching days, always carrying an umbrella when going out...

Remembering this, Miyauchi Hiyage could not help gritting his teeth and clenching his fists, wanting to curse that scammy Diary a few times.

In his previous life, he loved spicy food. After discovering that Japanese chili varieties were not particularly tasty in this life, he had even secretly bypassed the jurisdiction of Japan Agricultural Cooperatives and brought back chili seeds from Sichuan and Chongqing to grow for himself.

Now that he had gotten this Pure Yang Body, not only could he no longer eat chilies, he could not even eat a hot meal. In exchange, he would never have to fear ghosts again.

Even though Miyauchi Hiyage had never seen a ghost in all the years since he transmigrated.

"But if I never encountered ghosts before, then after getting this diary, that might not be so certain..."

Miyauchi Hiyage thought this with a headache.

Transmigration and rebirth had already happened to him, so his view of the world had naturally changed considerably.

Even if one day, in this mishmash world, the priest from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure activated Made in Heaven to carry the entire universe into a new world, and Chaldea came over to resolve that Singular Point, Miyauchi Hiyage would not find it strange.

If he had never encountered such things before, it could only mean that Asahigaoka, the setting of the healing slice-of-life anime Non Non Biyori, did not have that sort of filth.

According to the usual tropes of web novels he had seen in his previous life, when an author arranged for a protagonist to obtain some sort of cheat, it would generally come in handy soon afterward. If he got the Pure Yang Body but not a single demon or ghost appeared until the end, readers would probably mail the author razor blades.

And that was why Miyauchi Hiyage had mentioned in his diary that he hoped to receive an ordinary reward.

If he were rewarded with artistic works from his previous life, or abilities such as cooking and drawing, then he would not have to worry about much. He could peacefully write diaries every day, receive cheats, and develop his career.

But now, he also had to be wary of attention from the supernatural side. He wanted to continue keeping a low profile, writing diaries, and collecting rewards, but because of the Pure Yang Body, every evil entity would have to avoid and flee from him. Sooner or later, someone would notice.

"Giving me a reward like this, this Diary clearly wants me to step into the spotlight and attract attention. "

Miyauchi Hiyage could even imagine it. With the personalities of the male protagonists in those diary web novels, if he merely mentioned in his diary that he possessed a passive ability to exorcise evil, diary holders plagued by demons and strange entities would inevitably take the initiative to approach him. Then the protagonist would easily solve the heroines' problems with his constitution, and after a few encounters, they would hook up with each other.

Just imagining it made Miyauchi Hiyage feel a little overheated. His resistance to girls had clearly improved greatly in this life, yet the Pure Yang Body truly lived up to its status as a legendary celestial body—it had somehow made him restless again.

He hurriedly shook his head to calm himself down. He could not lose his head right now.

Chongyun in the game was a simple-minded young exorcist. At most, when he got overheated, he would say something like, "Today's spending is on me," then slap a few talismans onto people. He could not do anything bad.

But having lived two lives, Miyauchi Hiyage's thoughts were so complicated that even he might not be able to see his own true nature clearly. He truly feared that one day, after losing his head, he would regain his senses and find himself surrounded by plum blossom marks left by young girls.

Fortunately, when Miyauchi Hiyage calmed down and sensed his body, he discovered that the Pure Yang Body he had obtained was not as overbearing as Chongyun's in the game.

He did not know whether his Pure Yang Body was a weakened version or whether, because it had been rewarded by the Diary, he had also gained greater control over this constitution.

In any case, after fiddling around for several hours, by the time the rooster next door began to crow, he had finally figured out a few simple methods to control the Pure Yang Body.

He was still far from completely concealing it, but in low-power mode, his body temperature was only one or two degrees higher than normal, and he would not lose his head so easily.

As for its effect on evil entities, he had not encountered any yet, so naturally he could not make any judgment.

"Tomorrow, I'll be more careful and test how much hot food and mildly spicy food I can handle."

He could still try hot food and chilies, but hot showers, hot springs, and similar things would probably have nothing to do with him for quite some time.

After realizing this, Miyauchi Hiyage relaxed slightly, but he also decided that he needed to get a large black umbrella whenever he went out in the future and avoid the sun.

What's Wrong with Men Liking Thigh-Highs?!

Because Miyauchi Hiyage had matured early since childhood and had become the greatest contributor to revitalizing Asahigaoka's economy at the age of twelve, his status in the family was quite high. As long as he told his family something, no one would disturb him.

Hiyage probably stayed up all night playing games yesterday, then pretended he had spent the whole night working on a plan, Miyauchi Kouka muttered inwardly as she looked at Miyauchi Hiyage's empty seat in the Miyauchi Family dining room.

Of the twins, she had been born half an hour earlier and therefore became the elder sister. Her name was Kouka, meaning light, while her younger brother's name was Hiyage, meaning shadow. Yet in the end, she, the light, had lived in her younger brother's shadow from childhood to adulthood.

She could not beat him when they were little, and after they began studying, he completely crushed her academically. Once the plan to revitalize Asahigaoka began, she had completely lost any desire to compare herself to her little brother.

Now, Miyauchi Kouka only dared to complain about him in private.

After all, the two siblings would soon be going to Tokyo to attend school together. If she ran out of allowance then, she would have to rely on her ridiculously wealthy younger brother to generously bail her out. She did not even have time to flatter Miyauchi Hiyage, so how could she possibly badmouth him in front of others?

And when it came to starting school, Miyauchi Kouka could not help muttering inwardly again.

Ah, I'm going to Tokyo for school soon. With Hiyage's money, renting a villa in the city center wouldn't be a problem, right?

I just don't know why he insists on going to that Houtonji High School. With his abilities, getting into Shuchiin Academy or Advanced Nurturing High School would be more than easy for him.

No matter how much Miyauchi Kouka thought about it, she could not understand what Miyauchi Hiyage wanted from an ordinary high school that had been founded less than ten years ago.

Still, since it was Miyauchi Hiyage's own decision, he surely had his reasons. It could not possibly be because he had heard Houtonji High School had lots of beautiful girls and rushed over there for that, could it?

If that really were the case, she would truly thank the heavens.

After all, in her eyes, her younger brother was a weirdo whose head was full of strange nonsense.

When filming wilderness survival videos, he could come up with lines terrifying enough to make the neighbor's children cry, like, "Tastes like chicken, crunchy as a cracker, and has six times the protein of beef." When filming promotional videos for their hometown, he made it look like bandits raiding a village.

Then there were all those bizarre inventions he had people develop, such as the "burn-the-boats treadmill" and the "upside-down hair-washing machine." A whole pile of increasingly strange contraptions was still stacked in the Miyauchi Family warehouse.

From childhood until now, she had never seen her little brother take any interest in women.

As his older sister, Miyauchi Kouka was instead more worried that her little brother was too immersed in his own world and might not even be able to find a girlfriend in the future.

What she naturally could not imagine was that Miyauchi Hiyage's reason for choosing Houtonji was extremely simple.

First, it was in Tokyo.

In this crossover world, Tokyo was naturally the place with the most anime and film characters.

And Houtonji High School had a free-spirited school culture. Compared with places like Shuchiin Academy and Advanced Nurturing High School, there was practically no academic pressure at all, leaving him plenty of free time.
