In this crossover anime/manga series, Light Yagami's method of becoming a god is highly problem

Page 42

Is it a forced agreement? Or will she snuggle in Light Yagami's arms afterward and say she'll take responsibility? Or will she get pregnant out of wedlock and bring the baby to his door?

Jing Qinren's mind raced. She covered her face and turned her head away shyly, not daring to look at her own body.

"What are you thinking about? Let's switch back first."

Light Yagami kicked his legs, unaccustomed to this frail body. He could roughly guess what the other person was thinking.

It's so awkward to make that kind of movement with your own body.

"Ah, yes!"

Jingqin Rencai came to her senses, canceled her ability, and her consciousness was pulled back into her own body.

"Sorry, I was thinking about some unpleasant things just now." Jingqin Rencai scratched the back of her head sheepishly.

"Such a passionate, energetic, youthful high school savior story, what are you thinking with such lewd thoughts?!" After returning to his body, Light Yagami began pointing and criticizing.

In order to eliminate exploitation, prevent people from starving, combat hegemonic behavior, and put aside racial conflicts... he had to win over these girls with superpowers, even offering them his body.

This world-saving script seems a bit off!

After being lectured, Jing Qinren lowered her head and deeply reflected on her earlier idea of ​​controlling the big head with the small head.

Light Yagami glanced at the time; five or six minutes had passed.

“Yesterday, Yukinoshita took the initiative to tackle me. The mission was completed, and I wasn’t punished.” He brought up the previous trial mission to start the conversation.

This is something that cannot be avoided.

The two people were trapped in the strangely appearing space and were powerless to resist.

Superpowers are enough to change the fate of billions of people. In comparison, the change of two people's purity is something that is extremely small and extremely easy.

"The Service Club President who can turn into a cat!"

"Nearly an hour of frantic exploitation!"

After listening to Light Yagami recount his experiences from the previous day, Nina Isera had a completely new understanding of Yukino Yukinoshita.

It's said that she's a girl who speaks without any regard for the atmosphere, keeps strangers at bay, and shows no mercy.

So you're actually this proactive in private?

Thinking of this, Izayoi secretly glanced at the area between Yagami Light's legs.

She could still feel that heavy thing just now.

"What's your opinion?" Light Yagami sat on the ground, playing with his fingers, the bones making a crisp sound.

What I just mentioned was also to increase the acceptance of Rencai (a type of vegetable).

This is a matter involving two people, not just his predicament alone.

"Ah... I don't want to do that." Izuru Rina realized what she meant and gave a dry laugh.

How could I possibly accept this?

At worst, I'll just embarrass myself. I've never experienced what it's like to be in a high school; I've only heard from classmates that it's great.

“You’re different from many girls.” Only now did Light Yagami truly look at this somewhat stubborn girl.

For a long time, he had always regarded Iori Niina as Yukino Yukinoshita, who lacked both ability and background.

Sticky notes are a method of summarizing someone's characteristics based on their outward appearance when you first meet them.

In daily interactions, the deeper the understanding, the labels are peeled off, and a complex and comprehensive understanding is formed.

He admired Jing Qinrencai for her willingness to apologize and her strong principles.

A glimpse of fair, slender leg peeking out from under the pleated skirt, yellow socks visible through the edge of the shoes, and a small, delicate face—upon closer inspection, Jingqin Rencai is actually quite cute.

"Momoko said the same thing to me." Igarashi Rencai kept her head down, her voice soft and sweet.

“Momoka said the same thing to me.” Light Yagami felt like he was talking to a child.

Chapter 74: As expected, I like the moon.

The two exchanged a knowing smile.

In this environment, where it's impossible to go out, chatting seems to be the best way to pass the time.

"I haven't been to Disneyland in Chiba yet, but I've heard about Tsuki-kun suing them." After saying that, Izare Nina felt strange herself. She could call each other by name very intimately when she met them near the apartment, but she wanted to use a respectful title here alone.

"Take the train to Maihama. Whether you buy the annual pass or not doesn't matter, since almost everyone in Chiba has one." Entering a casual chat, Light Yagami jokingly introduced the fun places inside.

He, along with the Yukinoshita sisters and Kasugano Sora, visited all the Disney parks around the world, experiencing almost everything except for a few rides that were abandoned.

Under his explanation, Jingqin Rencai developed a certain longing.

After arriving in Shin-Kawasaki, the only place I visited that could be considered scenic was the Hachiko statue where I took photos with An and Subaru.

"There aren't many fun places in Kumamoto, and my dad doesn't allow me to stay out too late. During holidays, I usually go to the Kamishiromi Kumanozha Shrine; the Buddha statue there is huge..."

When talking about Kumamoto's scenery and local specialties, Izare Jinna would occasionally slip into a few words of local dialect. At these times, she would look at Yagami Light with embarrassment, as if she had done something shameful. However, Yagami Light understood her and gestured for her to continue.

Kumamoto has both land-based and sea-based volcanoes. When you think of Kumamoto people, the first impression is usually that they are thick, fat, and tough. Their stubborn and utterly obstinate Kumamoto dialect is how they describe themselves.

However, this characteristic is not very noticeable in Light Yagami, perhaps because he has never argued with Nina Iori.

—Except for that time I was slapped.

When talking about stopping bullying, Izayoi Nijina spoke with the same excitement as if she were revealing her great achievements to a man she was attracted to.

“When I was in elementary school, some classmates ganged up on me to bully me. My dad told me to fight back and let them know that I’m not someone to be messed with. Later, I helped those who were bullied every year, and everyone said I was very brave.”

“Actually, I know that it’s my father’s name that acts as a shield, allowing me to communicate normally with teachers and the school. They are worried that if my father reveals this matter, it will affect his reputation.”

Gradually, Izare Nina revealed her deepest feelings, her heart already unguarded with Yagami Light.

With a little prompting, her grievances welled up and spilled out.

Japan has a high rate of bullying, with more than 800,000 cases registered each year, of which 10 percent of the victims have engaged in extreme behaviors such as self-harm or jumping off buildings.

"After getting into the best high school, bullying incidents decreased significantly. Teachers took this issue very seriously until the second year of high school..."

The sight of celery and vegetables brought back unpleasant memories; she clenched her teeth and her hands tightly.

Light Yagami took her small, soft hand and cupped it in his palm.

"Ugh?"

"Keep talking, I'm listening."

"Oh... okay." Jing Qinren's heart was in her throat, and the tense atmosphere from before immediately dissipated.

“Hina is a very good friend of mine. When she was being bullied, I helped her out. Although she always called me a hot-blooded idiot, I know she did it for my own good. That day after class, we went to Saizeriya outside the school for dessert. We saw the Kimura kids bullying others. I wanted to stop them, but she pulled me away and told me not to fight back against these people.”

"The Kimura family has been intermarrying for generations. They control the government and various industries in Kumamoto. If anyone messes with their children, they almost always have no choice but to transfer schools."

Izayoi named more than a dozen families who controlled the economic lifeline of Kumamoto. The Emperor was just a figurehead; these powerful families practically ruled over a region, and could arbitrarily change local laws.

"Hina kept telling me to go find the teacher, to find the school, or I'd have to transfer schools, but the former was useless. The school principal was also a relative of the Kimura family. I asked that classmate about transferring schools, and her family couldn't afford the tuition..."

Before Kira appeared, these powerful clans strictly implemented a system of governance based on a few extra resources. Shang Yang's Five Arts of Governing the People were a way to turn one's life around by attending a good university, but the problem was that ordinary families couldn't afford tutoring classes, or even pay tuition fees.

"From what you heard, they wanted that girl to jump off a building, so you ignored Hina's attempts to stop them and stepped in to stop their bullying. At that time, the girl had already been forced against the wall... Afterwards, you took the place of that girl and were bullied by them. The girl you helped was also bullied by them under their coercion." Yagami Light spoke the rest of the story on behalf of Iori Nina.

This was still fortunate. The powerful and wealthy people he knew were a group of people who had almost finished enjoying the pleasures of the pinnacle of wealth and were gradually starting to explore all sorts of novel ways to have fun. Of course, this involved many lives.

"Yes, Hina also had a conflict with me because of this, but I did nothing wrong. If no one had stepped in, that girl wouldn't have survived. Everyone just stood by and watched, as if they didn't care that they were the victims." This was the first time Izayoi had told someone the whole story. She didn't understand, she didn't get it.

"Of course you're not wrong in this matter. In a moment of crisis, saving someone doesn't need a reason. If saving a life is wrong, then the world is wrong." Light Yagami felt the warmth from the girl's hand and concluded with a smile: "However, this world is fundamentally flawed. I don't want to change myself, so I can only try to change this inherently flawed world."

His gaze was deep as he stared directly at the girl before him.

Memories of the past also surfaced in my mind.

A resonance arose between their hearts, and Jingqin Rencai looked up in surprise, her tone extremely serious.

"I knew it, I like the moon."

This sentiment was finally conveyed, and a wall called inferiority complex was shattered by Jingqin Rencai.

"It's not idol worship, but a girl's affection for a boy; it's a confession."

She looked directly at Light Yagami, unwavering and resolute.

"I like what you said in the interview about fighting back against bullying. I like the foundation you founded, which has helped many people. I like the songs you sing that give me courage..."

In the end, Igarashi Rina confessed her feelings once again in the Kumamoto dialect, and the Japanese confession also conveyed her feelings.

"It's a good thing to do privately."

"You like the image I project, the stories I've heard, the halo effect, the idealized image. Would you be interested in learning about my true self?"

Light Yagami knew she wasn't asking him to date her.

Chapter 75: Well Celery and Vegetables Are Such a Trouble

This is a separate space, and you cannot teleport out of it even after transforming.

Time is frozen in the outside world. Light Yagami learns from Ichiri Goto's observation that everything done during the paused time will be instantly loaded after the pause is lifted.

Sitting on the ground, Light Yagami pondered whether or not to reveal his true identity. Being able to switch bodies meant that he could use Serina Iori to contact others in many situations.

Light Yagami, the eldest son of the Yagami family and one of the future controllers of Japan, has squeezed into the most prestigious circles with his immense wealth, and is the focus of much attention.

Countless people try to get close to him and curry favor with him every day, practically offering themselves up to him, and his daily outings are also closely watched by many people.

Even without that identity, relying solely on her looks, she wouldn't have a peaceful life.

"Nina, do you know Yukino Yukinoshita's older sister?"

Putting that thought aside for the moment, Light Yagami changed the subject. In his eyes, Hina and Nina's relationship was especially like that of the Yukinoshita sisters.

Developing an arrogant personality is actually a way to protect yourself; being indifferent and unpleasant can help you reject many ill-intentioned contacts.

"Yukino Yukinoshita, an outstanding graduate of Soubu High School." Izayoi Nina had seen it on the school's college admission notice board. She had been admitted to Chiba National University, and could use this diploma to get a good job in the future.

"She is a very outstanding girl. Yukino is far inferior to Haruno in terms of interpersonal skills. Haruno, in order for her younger sister to grow, takes the approach of becoming her enemy and using methods that her younger sister dislikes in order to help her for her own good."

Under the puzzled gaze of Inori Rina, Yagami Light ended his emotional conversation.

"Some people do things that you hate, but it's actually for your own good."

"That's enough, I don't want to hear it." Realizing what he wanted to say, Igarashi Renna turned away in a huff.

If there were a way out from here, you would have probably run away by now, right?

"Hina was also bullied. You were close to her, and she wasn't spared either." Light Yagami smiled slightly. This was a scene from episode five, in front of an indoor shoe cabinet, where Hina's shoes were missing.

“But Hina wasn’t targeted by the Kimura family. I told them that as long as they bullied me, they would let the others go.” Izare Nina turned around in disbelief. “Why didn’t Hina tell me about this?”

"Does she seem like the type of person who would honestly tell you what I've done for you, or what I've been hiding?"

"Besides, who says the Kimura family doesn't bully her? And that others won't take action to curry favor with the Kimura family?"

Blindly pursuing justice is foolish; without the ability to achieve justice, one can only watch helplessly as good intentions lead to bad outcomes.

Light Yagami has seen many people stand up for bullies, but some couldn't beat them, and others left after they did fight, failing to eradicate the evil completely, and were bullied even more miserably afterward.

Nina, who was well protected by her family at the age of seventeen, was unaware of the ugliness of the world and the solutions hidden in human nature.

“I… Hina dropped out of school because of this, right?” Suddenly, Izare Nina understood why Hina, who said she wanted to study hard, make a name for herself, and earn money to support her mother, and why Hina, who had learned to protect herself and choose to maximize her own interests, would risk dropping out of school to go for an interview.

“Children from poor families are often more sensible. They have no one to rely on and have to rely on themselves for everything. When they encounter injustice, they know that if they get involved, it will easily implicate their families.”

Light Yagami patted her shoulder and said earnestly, "This is a lesson Hina learned over seventeen years. She's a proud person who doesn't like to say things directly, so she uses a very clumsy method to help you understand."

"Was it the one who told me that day, 'It's all Nina's fault'?" Nina Izare thought of what he had said before, as well as the revenge from the Kimura family.

“That’s right, she deliberately wanted to make you feel bad.” Light Yagami said slowly, “Life is about learning from hurting others and being hurt by others, and gaining lessons and growth.”

"Elementary school eliminates some people, junior high school eliminates some people, and by high school you have already come into contact with the local bullies. At this point, your father's reputation as an educator can no longer protect you. When you get into university and enter society, one day you will encounter people you absolutely cannot mess with. They wield power and oppress others at will. Rewriting the law is not difficult for them. With just a glance, their subordinates will interpret it or, in order to curry favor, make sure you are completely wiped out if you displease them."

"While the cost is still acceptable, let's strike a blow to your sense of justice. Perhaps then you'll realize your own insignificance and understand what is permissible and what is not."

This is Hina teaching her best friend Nian a life lesson, repaying her for standing up for her back then.

In the anime, perhaps the two would only be able to fully explain the truth and reconcile in the second season, but now, Light Yagami has directly brought everything to light.

If we follow the timeline, it's early spring, around March to April, just after the second episode.

Thinking of this, Light Yagami softly hummed "Spring Shadow".

Jing Qinrencai just silently lowered her head, lost in thought; her expression couldn't be seen from this angle.

Misa Amane was getting anxious. The two of them were having a heart-to-heart talk here, just like they were having a story session.
