Chapter 70: Yagokoro Eirin: Reisen, Go Breed With Him.
.....
In a moment of excitement, Kaguya accidentally revealed the instant noodle supplier. Shinjo Akane immediately hid behind Takarada Rikka, not daring to meet Kihara's eyes. If she saw disappointment or anger on his face, she might not be able to eat for the rest of the day.
Shameimaru Aya didn't miss the chance for an interview either. Her eyes sparkled as she shoved the microphone toward Kihara.
"Contestant Kihara, from what Contestant Kaguya just said, it seems your girlfriend backstabbed you. How do you feel right now?"
"Besides surprised, I'm actually a little relieved."
"Oh? Why is that?"
"Akane was brought by me to live in this completely unfamiliar place. Sometimes I have to go out for various reasons and can't stay with her. The fact that she could team up with Kaguya to trick me shows that she's starting to integrate into Gensokyo. As her boyfriend and an honorary resident of Gensokyo, I'm actually very happy to see this kind of development."
"Taking this opportunity, I'd also like to say once again to the youkai who are still observing Pelican Town and myself: Pelican Town will not destroy the daily life you are used to. I prefer to call the current and future development 'making Gensokyo great again!'
As I mentioned before, once Pelican Town develops to a certain level, the top-quality ingredients we produce will be sold externally. But it won't just be ingredients — many future recreational facilities and outside-world amenities will also be open to the public. Everyone is welcome to visit and enjoy Pelican Town."
Shameimaru Aya had not expected Kihara to say something so serious. She was stunned for a long moment before snapping back and continuing her questions. "Then… is the rumor about the 'Gensokyo Paradise Project' also true?"
"That is pure slander!" Kihara declared with a solemn expression. "I am a very devoted and focused person. I only fall in love with one anime wife per week!"
"And next week?"
"Of course I'll love another wife."
"Isn't that still being a playboy!?"
Shameimaru Aya couldn't help laughing at his shameless attitude.
Kihara curled his lip in disdain. "Aya, let me ask you — why do birds fly?"
"Because they have wings, of course!"
"Exactly!" He spread his hands and asked matter-of-factly, "If you want to fly, you need wings. Humans yearn for freedom and flight, so what's wrong with me having more wives as wings?"
"Beet!"
"Alright, alright. You perverted blockhead, get off the stage!" Kaguya walked over and pushed Kihara aside, snatching the microphone from Shameimaru Aya. "Yukari, I've won the championship. Isn't it time to grant my wish?"
"Of course. What is your wish?"
"It's very simple!" Kaguya pointed straight at Kihara. "Turn Kihara into a sh*ta form and keep him that way… for one month!"
The other youkai began murmuring in surprise upon hearing her request.
"I knew his relationship with Eientei was unusual!"
"He's probably more like a pawn Yagokoro Eirin planted beside Yukari. After all, those two have a grudge."
"You shut-in, why do you have such a rich imagination!" Kihara glared in horror and cursed. Without another word, he pulled out his acceleration watch, ready to run.
"Trying to run? No chance!"
Kagawa pointed at the afterimage that Kihara had become from a distance. Time around him turned into a cage, pinning him in place so he couldn't move. The Knight Belt had been made using her Hourai ability — trying to escape in front of her using that ability was far too naive.
Snap!
Yukari snapped her fingers loudly. A gap passed through Kihara from top to bottom. The next moment, a cute black-haired sh*ta with red lips and white teeth, wearing loose clothes, stood there looking confused.
He then glared at Kaguya and Yukari with a childish but fierce expression and roared, "Did you two team up to set up this competition just to trick me?"
The moment he finished speaking, four or five beautiful figures rushed over at once. For a brief moment, his head was mercilessly crushed by multiple massive breasts.
"Kyaa!! Kihara was this cute when he was little!!"
"He even has baby fat on his round face… Guh! I can't take it! Akane, quickly let me hug Kihara!!"
"Hey! Don't pull my clothes! My pants! My pants are falling off!!!"
After a short chaotic scramble, Kihara — tightly clutching his waistband — ended up with seven or eight red lipstick marks on his face. With an expressionless face, he was held firmly in Ais's arms. Ais herself was also expressionless, but her cheeks were flushed red.
In the end, LV.6 strength and speed made Ais the big winner of the shota Kihara. Before she could carry him home and put her budding ideas into action, a black-haired beauty blocked the girls' path.
Kaguya tucked her hands into her long sleeves and smiled calmly. "As agreed, after completing this task, Kihara will stay at my house for a few days. Hand him over to me now."
Kihara, who had already expected this, chose to stop struggling. In his current child form, his strength had returned to that of a young boy. Even the seemingly weakest Lili could pin him to the ground and rub him against it.
"Sigh… Ais, hand Kihara over to her. This was part of our agreement." Shinjo Akane spoke with a helpless expression.
"Oh." Ais was straightforward. As she handed Kihara over, she took the chance to steal another kiss on his cheek.
The Cooking King Championship, which had been filled with Gensokyo-style chaos and absurdity, finally came to an end. Kihara bid farewell to his reluctant girlfriends and was led by Kaguya to Eientei, where time seemed to never pass.
While walking through the long wooden corridor, the two unexpectedly ran into Yagokoro Eirin, who had just come out of the pharmacy. She looked at Kihara with surprise, then turned around, went back into the pharmacy, and tossed a purple-haired rabbit youkai in front of them.
"Reisen, go bred with this boy. I want to use your ch*ld for an experiment."
Reisen stared at Kihara in a daze. Her brain momentarily short-circuited from the sudden order. "Eh… Eh!?"
Kaguya's head sprouted a huge question mark. She frowned and protectively pulled Kihara behind her. "Eirin, what are you trying to do? Didn't I tell you not to casually use Kihara for experiments?"
"Princess, I'm not experimenting on him personally. I just want one of his offspring."
"Th-That's still not allowed!"
"I see." Yagokoro Eirin showed a meaningful smile, then turned and left as if nothing had happened. "Reisen, the task I gave you remains the same. Get prgnant with this boy's ch*ld. Let me see if the rule 'mixed blood is the strongest' is true."
"Y-Yes, Master!"
An ice-cold gaze that made one's hair stand on end came from behind. Reisen shivered and turned around to see Kaguya glaring at her with a dark expression. Tears almost spilled from her eyes. "Princess… I-I'm just following Master's orders…"
"Reisen, if you really attack Kihara while I'm not paying attention, tomorrow I'll turn you into spicy rabbit head and send you to Yuyuko!"
"Eek!!!"
After intimidating the timid rabbit, Kaguya finally pulled Kihara into her room, locked the door, and pounced on him with drool at the corner of her mouth. "Hahahaha! Now you have nowhere to run!"
(T/N: F*ck this Sh*ta thing!! almost made me drop this translation. F*ck it!)
