(Umaru Perspective) (Himouto! Umaru-chan)
My passion is consuming all kinds of fictional content.
Whether it's Japanese manga and ani, Arican comics, Korean manhwas, Chinese manhuas, or fantasy novels from various countries like Russia, Indonesia, or the Philippines, I also like Spanish and English-speaking fanfics or small comics made by beginners. Due to my brother's insistence, I learned several languages, even though he always says that I am stupid and forces to continue studying.
I love to see anything that is an escape from reality, I really love generic and predictable works that were written to fulfill the fantasies of authors frustrated with their own lives.
It is because of my love of fiction that I feel a deep distaste when I see tedious problems of real life being translated into fiction.
I have the obsession to finish the things that I start, but immortal cultivation novels are sothing that many tis I have had to leave halfway through.
Regarding the works of the Chinese, I love the whole universe that the authors can build based on immortal cultivation, ancestral spirits, and ancient monsters. The whole setting is fascinating and it feels like an epic journey, but there's sothing I can't stand.
Damn nationalism!
I'm half Arican and half Japanese, but things like nationality or religion don't matter to , if soone insults for being Japanese it will only make think I'm talking to an idiot and I won't pay attention.
The problem is that most Chinese novels cling to the idea that the Japanese are demons in human skin.
I understand that the history of the Asian continent is full of genocide, rape, and cris committed by the Japanese, but the obsession with justifying every stupidity based on historical data causes enormous boredom.
Whether it is killing, raping, stealing or torturing, everything is a heroic act as long as it is against a villain from Japan, Russia, Iraq, Turkey, the United States, England... Basically, everything is justified as long as the Chinese protagonist can humiliate other countries.
Again, all of that doesn't matter to , but when nationalism is included in an otherworldly cultivation novel, I can only feel a deep frustration that makes want to scream.
There are tis when a good novel is overextended and everything becos repetitive as happened in Martial God Asura. At a certain point, the upper realms were identical to the lower realms, only the nas of the waifus changed which beco irrelevant after 100 chapters.
I'm not against protagonists collecting waifus like they're Pokémon, but it's boring when all the waifus are cold beauties with a tsundere temper.
Regardless, I can handle the repetitiveness, even keeping up with Against The Gods even though each chapter makes wish Yun Che was dead.
What I can't stand is racism disguised as nationalism in a world where countries on planet Earth shouldn't exist.
One of my biggest disappointnts was the Otherworldly Evil Monarch novel.
I like this author because of the way his novels begin, but he always makes the sa mistakes.
Halfway through the novel, the protagonists beco half-brained degenerates who only think about fornicating, even if it leads them into an all-too-obvious trap.
Ruining a good character is a sin, but it is worse when the cruelest and most degenerate enemies turn out to be Japanese, despite the fact that the author has already explained that there is no Japan in that world.
Otherworldly Evil Monarch was my favorite Chinese novel, but that only added to my deep disappointnt.
I didn't even finish the novel and left it before the major arcs. I couldn't stand that the protagonist had beco more stupid than Issei Hyoudou.
It's been almost two years since I gave up that novel, but now the dark past haunts , and I'm angry in a childish, unreasonable way.
The chat room wants to see suffer since it summoned the waifu that caused the most disappointnt out of all the cultivation novels I've read.
i Xueyan, also known as Venerable i. She is the ruler of all spirit beasts and was the character with the highest potential in both strength and character developnt.
She was the reason I loved that novel, so my heart broke when she turned into a pathetic simp in the middle of the novel.
Venerable i stopped being a final boss and beca a pathetic representation of a submissive woman without will or character, just a nice decoration to magnify the stupid protagonist who becos more idiotic with each passing chapter.
Aaaaahhhhhhh! How annoying!
"Do you have a problem with this venerable one?" – Male voice, imposing presence, and a black robe that covers her entire body. If it wasn't because I know Venerable i is a submissive waifu, then I would feel scared by her presence.
Although i Xueyan lost all my respect for her attitude in the novel, she is still intimidating so I quickly shook my head. – "No problem, I was just thinking about how impressive Venerable i's aura is"
i Xueyan snorted and chose to ignore .
I'm glad this is the i Xueyan before the novel starts, at least I got to et the version that isn't just a trophy for the protagonist.
The chat room had invited i Xueyan to help us remove the anomaly, but there is a big problem.
The protagonist of Otherworldly Evil Monarch is a transmigrant who reincarnated in the body of a useless, cliché idiot.
The problem is that before the arrival of the protagonist, i Xueyan was ambushed by the Holy Lands.
Although that was several years before the canon began, i Xueyan was only able to suppress her injuries by consuming a lot of resources, and only the protagonist was able to heal her dying body.
The current i Xueyan is the weaker version with a body that was practically torn to pieces.
She is a monster capable of manipulating the laws of nature and space, but currently, she is only slightly stronger than Kiss-Shot.
One thing we discovered is that the chat room displayed different ssages to each person.
My ssage was the simplest since I understand what a chat room is, but for the waifus who haven't read fanfics, they were lured with promises of getting what they want most.
My suspicions that the chat room is run by a manipulative demon only keep growing.
The chat room promised an elixir capable of healing her wounds and pills that will strengthen the spirit beasts she considers her family.
When i Xueyan was added to the chat room, I was tasked with explaining the situation to her since only Hiroki and I know about fanfics, but Hiroki was just saying stupid things that didn't help the situation.
Hiroki isn't interested in Chinese novels and hasn't read Otherworldly Evil Monarch so he didn't recognize i Xueyan, but he seed to know that she is an absolutely beautiful woman even though she never takes off the black robe that covers every part of her body, not even her eyes are visible.
Maybe he's just following the cliché that every jade-skinned beauty is a beauty goddess, though I have a suspicion that he has insider knowledge about the chat room.
Paranoia-chan hasn't given any detailed explanations, but she has told that I should never make any promises or agreents with Hiroki, nor should I accept any rewards from the chat room.
I ntioned this to the other mbers of the chat room, but they probably won't listen to as they seem very interested in the rewards from their individual quests.
Sotis I feel like no one listens to ...
When i Xueyan was added to the chat room, she was brought into this world after two hours when I explained the situation to her.
i Xueyan is very proud, narcissistic, and bossy. She views humans as degenerate creatures that she cannot be trusted.
Esdeath, Mirko, and daka hate her, Kiss-Shot prefers not to talk to the woman as she got bored of the frog-in-well analogies, Hiroki just seems eager to undress the immortal cultivator, so only Eto and I can talk to her without having a clash of egos.
Eto is possibly the smartest woman I've ever t. She is very cunning and analytical, she can perfectly understand people's personalities and predict their actions.
She might get along with my brother, or maybe both of them would try to kill each other if they ever t...
Eto helped convince i Xueyan to cooperate with us, although now I am i Xueyan's assistant… I'm not complaining, I like her cocky and haughty attitude, it's like watching a cliché villain from a Chinese novel and I've always preferred the villains instead of heroes.
We are now taking i Xueyan to Tabane's secret laboratory.
After Kiss-Shot found the four-ard creature, she covered the cage with the insulating blanket and then carried the cage to an isolated location.
Esdeath took the surviving rcenaries and in 5 minutes she managed to make them confess everything they knew.
Esdeath-sama, step on …!
Ahem.
The rcenaries had no idea that they were guarding a monster, nor did they know who had sent that thing to the city port. They were a group of rcenaries that were hired to deliver a shipnt to this city, apparently, they were to open the package near the IS Academy.
This was a big problem because we found out several things about the creature.
For starters, that thing opens its eyes every two hours. The creature is unable to attack, but anyone who sees those eyes will have a panic attack as long as they can't look away from the creature.
Esdeath did so experints on the rcenaries and we found out that my brother's food can cancel the creature's ntal attack, but there are several conditions for food to be effective.
The first rcenary that was exposed to the creature's gaze began to scream. In less than five seconds, his eyes, nose, and ears began to bleed, but the blood had changed, it had turned black.
The man started growling and tried to attack Esdeath, so she froze him and then destroyed his body.
We now know that the creature's gaze is like a zombie virus and even elite soldiers will be corrupted in a matter of seconds.
I have a theory that the ntal attack was less effective on us thanks to my brother's food.
Another option is that being people from other worlds, the creature's abilities have a hard ti damaging us, but I ruled out this theory since the person with the highest resistance to mind corruption is .
Another discovery was that the teeth that cover the creature are not sharp and cannot damage human flesh, yet every person who touches them seems to go completely insane. The rcenary who touched a tooth began to cry and laugh as he bit his lips and tongue as if he was hungry.
Obviously, all these experints were done without the knowledge of Hiroki, Mirko, and daka.
I didn't want to see sothing so horrible either since I'm traumatized by blood, but Esdeath insisted that this was part of my training to be strong.
I vomited and passed out many tis, but Esdeath forced back to consciousness.
Esdeath is in my Top 10 favorite waifus, but at that mont I really wanted to punch her face. She noticed that and just sneered at .
The experints had to stop as we ran out of rcenaries and it would be a problem if Esdeath starts kidnapping people.
I managed to convince the group of villains to talk to Chifuyu and Tabane for help.
Although Eto, Kiss-Shot, and daka are very smart, they don't have experience in scientific experintation so Tabane could help us, besides, this involved the safety of her world so she wouldn't hesitate to help us.
Sure enough, Tabane prepared a space in his private laboratory to place the creature and perform various experints. She showed complete seriousness in this matter since that creature could be a deadly danger to her sister and she is a siscon pervert… ugh, incest is disgusting…
Chifuyu used her contacts to track down the person who planned the attack on the IS Academy, but it's all done in secret since she doesn't trust the governnt.
Chifuyu knows that humans are capable of doing the most heinous things in order to gain power, for example, cloning a defenseless girl just to create human weapons.
Tabane made several discoveries about the creature, and it appears that the source of its power is a strange black fluid that can only be described as black blood.
Laboratory results showed that the black fluid was human blood, but it had no DNA record and the activity of the cells was too strong. Based on the speed at which the cells divide, the creature should have regenerative abilities on par with Eto.
For now, no experints have been done to asure the strength and combat abilities of the creature as it is too dangerous to release it, the creature remains in a drug-induced coma.
Tabane analyzed the chemicals that were being injected into the creature and found that the creature was not in a coma due to sedatives, but rather a mixture of drugs for schizophrenia, anxiety, depression, and bipolar.
Tabane isn't sure, but she theorized that the creature is sothing like a living ntal illness.
That reminded of sothing.
In the Soul Eater ani, there is a power called Madness, a demonic energy capable of corrupting all living beings and can even create living beings. The god of death of that world was born from the Madness of Death.
I told the waifus about this so for now Tabane will continue to research black blood.
The irony of all this is that the villains are trying to find a counterasure against black blood, while the heroes are living normal school lives.
Mirko is striving to beco stronger as she wants to overco the power of the robotic suits. Her pride was hurt after being defeated by Esdeath's ice powers, so she wants to overco that power through physical force.
daka is busy being a student council president.
Hiroki continues to chase skirts, and although he seduced several idiot girls, he has not managed to woo any of the main waifus, only secondary characters that do not even appear on the ani wiki.
While they waste ti, we try to save the world.
The villains beca the true heroes...
Mirko and daka won't approve of human experints so they don't know about this, as for Hiroki… That idiot is still obsessed with humiliating the protagonist of Infinite Stratos so he has no ti or interest in helping us.
The funny thing is that Chifuyu noticed that her brother was intimidated by Hiroki so she's furious, but she hasn't intervened since she thinks that Hiroki is just a perverted and stupid kid.
Heh, Hiroki ssed up the onee-san's route.
I am now leading i Xueyan toward the creature since she can use her spiritual senses to determine if mind corruption is a spiritual-based ability rather than a scientific one.
As we went down the elevator, I opened my inventory and pulled out a cookie.
My brother is obsessed with preparing for an apocalyptic disaster, so he left enough food to last a couple of years, but I had to lie to Tabane and tell her I don't have much food left or she would insist on giving her the food to create a counterasure for black blood.
My brother's food has enormous emotional value for , but the most important thing is that I don't know how long we will spend in this world and it will be a disaster if many nightmare creatures appear and we don't have my brother's food.
Eto approved of my choice to prioritize the safety of our group over the inhabitants of this world.
It seems cruel to to let a whole world die, but my brother taught to prioritize my life over the lives of all the people in the world.
The only people I want to protect are my brother, my mother, Ebina, and the waifus in the chat room, maybe Tabane too since we started to beco friends. She likes to talk about her sister and I like to talk about my brother, although the difference is that I have no sexual interest in my brother because I am not a sexual degenerate.
"Venerable i, I understand that you are very strong, but I recomnd eating this before seeing the creature" – I handed a cookie to i Xueyan.
"Do you think this venerable one will stoop to eating the treats of humans…?" - i Xueyan stopped talking when she slled the food, she had been seduced by my brother's culinary talent.
I don't know what Paranoia-chan did to , but when the creature opened its eyes, Paranoia-chan gave so kind of skill. I'm not sure what this skill does, but I feel like I can now read people's emotions and reactions as if I were reading a book.
I can't read minds or know people's secrets, but I feel like I can see through any lie.
"This…" – i Xueyan's body started to tremble, she even forgot to use the voice change technique and displayed her real voice. – "A heavenly elixir that transcends the heavens…"
…Elixir?
I know my brother's food can heal small wounds, but it's not up to the level of the over-the-top elixirs found in Chinese novels.
i Xueyan's attitude was making uncomfortable and I didn't know what to say, I just stood still with my hand outstretched to hand her the cookie.
I heard i Xueyan sigh with complex feelings.
i Xueyan moved her hands and removed the hood of her robe to show her face….
"Child, do you understand what you are offering ?"
Wow…
I'm not a lesbian, but I can't stop looking at that beautiful face of hers.
Okay, I admit it, the concept of beauty capable of destroying nations is not an exaggeration.
Hiroki's overwhelming beauty causes my extre disgust, but i Xueyan's exaggerated beauty makes want a dakimakura with her face.
If a woman this beautiful was my sister-in-law, that would be great. So I could ask her to do a photo shoot... in a maid outfit... or a bunny outfit...
"Child?"
"Ahem" – I coughed to hide my embarrassnt, my mind was lost thinking about how to make rchandise with i Xueyan's image.
i Xueyan smiled wryly…
She smiled?!
"You remind of little Qianxun, that silly girl had a similar reaction the first ti she saw my face"-i Xueyan smiled kindly.
If I rember correctly, i Qianxun is a snake and one of the strongest warriors under i Xueyan.
I scratched my cheek awkwardly, this is embarrassing.
i Xueyan patted my shoulder kindly, the change in her attitude was so sudden that I don't know what to say.
"Child, I'll ask you again, do you know what you're offering ?" – i Xueyan spoke to seriously.
"A chocolate pecan cookie?" – I don't understand why she seems so serious.
My brother's food is abnormally delicious and has many magical properties, but I don't think it's on the level of heavenly elixirs.
[■: ¬-¬]
Eh?
i Xueyan smiled and patted my head, but I reflexively walked away.
I saw i Xueyan raise an eyebrow for which I apologized. – "Sorry, I hate when they touch my head, I only like it when my brother does it…"
i Xueyan's smile beca kinder. – "Family is the most valuable gift under heaven, it is good that you value blood ties"
I don't care about blood ties. Even if my brother was adopted, I would love him with all my heart since he is the reason why I am still alive despite the problems in my childhood.
i Xueyan sighed. – "I hate lying to such a kind girl, so I will tell you the truth… What you are holding is not a simple dessert, it is a heavenly elixir capable of healing internal injuries and cultivation deviation… Just by slling that elixir, I can feel that several of the wounds in my sea of consciousness have stabilized"
What?!
From my experience reading Chinese novels, I know that physical injuries can be easily healed with ditation techniques or pills with stupid nas, but injuries in the sea of consciousness and cultivation deviation are matters of life and death for an immortal cultivator.
Normally, the protagonists are rubbish due to injuries to the ridians, but those injuries disappear when consciousness has a breakthrough.
A cultivator with an injured sea of consciousness is equal to a boxer who had his legs and arms cut off.
In the novel, i Xueyan was only able to heal her wounds with the protagonist's help because he has a heavenly treasure that affects the laws of life and death, allowing him to interact with fate and souls.
The fact that my brother's food can do the sa thing only adds to my doubts.
I no longer care if my brother punishes for the rest of my life or if my life is put in danger, I will demand answers from him when I return to my world.
[■: … :0 ]
Although I love my brother, I don't want to be a manipulative and treacherous person like him, but this is the best chance to win a favor from i Xueyan, besides, this will be good for her.
I opened my inventory and took out two boxes of cookies.
"Is this enough for you to heal all your wounds?" – I put the boxes in front of i Xueyan.
"…" - i Xueyan blinked several tis, she seed incredulous to see two boxes full of supposed heavenly elixirs. – "Child… this… this is too much, I cannot accept sothing so valuable…"
In the novel, i Xueyan is an honorable woman who lives by the belief that she will repay favors, even if it costs her life.
I don't fully understand the effects of my brother's food, but if i Xueyan's analysis is true, then these cookies should not only heal all of her injuries, it is even possible for her to have a breakthrough in her cultivating.
Although i Xueyan internally wishes for the cookie boxes, she seems worried that she won't be able to return this favor.
This isn't just saving her life, it's saving her entire territory since she's the only thing stopping humans from invading the forest where spirit beasts live.
"Child…"- i Xueyan seed to want to agree, but she was in a moral dilemma.
If I were a man, I might say sothing like 'be my wife in return' or so generic bullshit like that. Things of protagonists without personality.
Now that I think about it, maybe Hiroki has sothing that can help i Xueyan and he's just waiting for an opportunity to talk to her and make her his wife through an exchange of benefits, but I have been together with i Xueyan all the ti since she ca to this world, so Hiroki hasn't had that opportunity.

You're laughing?

… Paranoia-chan, you are a good friend.
