Chapter 41 – A New Menace

―― Several days after Arina and Yuuki destroyed Glenn’s ambitions.

Light shined down on the underground passage.
There was a gaping hole open on the ceiling, turning into rubble.
Underneath that hill made by the fake Marquis’ fist, there lay the remains of a pair of a man and a woman.
Splash, splash, something liquid splashed down there.
There were damaged beakers in the debris, the liquid came from there.
It was the ‘something randomly mixed’ made by Arina for Glenn to drink.

 

BAM!

 

A lacerated arm thrust out from the mountain of rubble.
Slowly, one by one, the arm removed the obstacles, bringing its body out.

 

It was Sister Nikka.

 

She groaned bitterly, her whole body covered in Arina’s fluid. She began to move, crawling on the floor, but she soon ran out of strength and could no longer move.
Then from the liquid clinging to her body, the ‘bugs’, visible by the naked eye, wriggled and entered Nikka’s body through her wounds and holes.
Nikka started moving once again.

 

After a long, long time, Nikka arrived at a room Arina did not notice.
It was of similar make to the cell where Marquis Isky was kept, but there was something enshrined inside.
It was a ring. A silver ring decorated with a grotesque design of skulls and snakes.

 

…… The tragedy called the Great Demon Queen War was Glenn and Nikka’s put-up job to begin with, but there is one thing baffling about it.
Even if Rosé was manipulated to play the part of the Demon Queen, how in the world did she defeat legions of troops and strike fear into the world?
That is an impossible feat for Rosé if she were to stay a princess.

The solution to that conundrum is this cursed magic item, the ‘Bracelet of Ruin‘.

It gives the wearer power equal to the hero Bacchus, and in return it would drive the wearer insane, a fearsome magical device. Nikka already had it prepared.
“Rosé…. unforgivable… I won’t forgive you…”
As she voiced her grudges, Nikka picked the bracelet up.
The bugs crawling all over her body reacted to the bracelet and swarmed.
Nikka put it on her own right arm.
The Bracelet of Ruin let off a dim light and the bugs jumped into Nikka’s mouth one after the other.
“Awff… awhfff! A, amazing power…!!”
Nikka stood up and held out her right arm over her head.
“Please wait Glenn-sama! I will drag Rosé off her throne and show you how I create a country for you! Fufufu, ahahaha, Isky Kingdom will reign eternal! Fufufu —— fuhehehehe!!”

BAM!

Having too much power in her hand, Nikka punched a wall.
The hard prison wall crumbled like wet clay.
“Uhehehe, Rosé, Arina, Yuuki…. I’ll kill you! You lot who did horrible things to Glenn-sama, I’ll kill you all!! Once I kill you Glenn-sama will be happy! I’ll create Glenn-sama’s country! Uhi, uhihihihi!!”
This is what they call a mad dance, Nikka danced in a trance with an abnormal expression, then suddenly.
“Ahihi — awfh,”
She collapsed.
“……. I still can’t control the power…. But soon…. I’ll rain divine punishment on them….”

 

—— In the history changed by Arina who held in her hand a mysterious power, a threat greater than that is soon to come upon Yuuki and Arina.
Their adventure in the yet unknown world continues.

    1. since rose can’t become demon queen anymore, it’s time for nikki to get in the role and our clueless mc become the hero. keikaku doori

    2. Sounds like a plan. I doubt Arina would have missed the bracelet of untold power.

      1. If that thing was a cursed magic item…it’s probable she would’ve sensed it.

        On the other hand it might’ve been hidden in a way that prevents magic detection.
        Remember, Arina still needed Glenn to show her the way to the lab.
        As clever as she is, she isn’t omnipotent. Even she admitted the differences in what she studied versus what actually happened.
        What’s really odd, is that…if she is from the future…a future where the lie was the truth, than how did Arina learn that it was all a farce to begin with?

        It makes one wonder if she did know about the bracelet though.

  1. This confirmed it. Everything Arina does were always part of a bigger scheme.. Glad i toughen up through all that semi-ntr shenanigans

    1. we don’t know yet. there’s a prossibility nikka has something planted on her but i imagine that arina doesn’t plan to control her in a long term like rose so anything planted on her is probably simpler and less powerful than rose. their plan seems too simple to arina thus make her think that nikka just got lucky that the plan worked. you could see that arina doesn’t know the lab location much less the bracelet existence. and that bracelet supposedly make the wearer as strong as arina or possibly stronger.

    1. Yay she’s alive?
      Personally, she’d be better off dead…it beats what’s going to hapen yo her now…

  2. Welp, she should’ve seen that coming as she the reason Glenn become like that and he died as the result of her plan

    1. she isn’t at fault you see. the one at fault is the people who accept the legendary history and writing it down make it known to arina thus… make them targeted by her.

      1. What I mean is the reason Glenn become like that. What Arina did is after, not before… Glenn’s condition already at worst thanks to his father, but Nikka make it more worse.. If only she just elope with Glenn instead doing conspiracy. She and Glenn could get happy end

      2. But glenn don’t love nikka right? He was warped after knowing that all his achievement were fake and the engagement with the princess was also done by his father. So he raped her and gained a loyal underling. After all, before he died he realize that he really does love rose.

  3. Thanks 4 the chapter!

    Isn’t there any normal(not crazy) women in this story? Not complaining, just curious.

    1. mist the most sane one for now. she just loved yuuki unlike arina or rose that’s now… well a poison…

      1. Most sane, not completely. Because of Arina she now goes around without any underwear.

      2. That doesn’t have anything to do with sanity though…wearing panties is just convention.

        Besides, Arina made it so “wearing panties” no longer exists in Mist’s sense of conventions/common sense.

  4. Man, I kinda wish Yuuki had more personality or character. He is kind of a bland, cookie cutter, generic, shounen hero.

    1. What the fuck did you just fucking say about my Yuu-kun, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Yuusha Academy, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on bandit caves, and I have over 30000000 confirmed kills. I am trained in magic warfare and I’m the top magician in the entire legion of yuusha. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am using my search magic across the world and your location is being found right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of magic and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.

      1. LMAO this is good. It captures the spirit of Arina pretty well! I was hoping someone would respond like this hahahaha!

    2. he is plain bland pretty boy(or at least his conduct were) shounen hero. to the point if you see the story from his pov it’s kind of plain harem story where somehow he always pull through the hard situation like how he’s unlocking new powers,getting on time cavalry reinforcement, or just basically luck. we just know that under his success there’s arina overshadowing.

      1. That sounds good. If the author made this into a comparison/parody of those novels than its brilliant and i like it even more 😀

        Now imagine your favourite novel with a typical hero and with someone like Arina in it. Someone who is only a sidecharacter but in reality he/she is the one pulling the strings and guiding the hero from the shadows. 🙂

      2. Do you mind reading out loud the story’s title again?

        The mc is normal, I repeat he is normal with no cheats and no special powers. The fact he went through all this because of Arina deserves anything but scorn from hero-admiring-readers.

    3. That’s the point.

      He’s absolutely ordinary, plain and generic…he’s literally “just that guy you’d find anywhere” dragged along for the ride.

      But…that’s why it works for this story…he’s ordinary.
      That’s a good thing here considering everyone else towers over him in some way…well, minus Mist who is more or less his familiar/willing love slave.

      Besides, we all kn9w this story is about the yandere girls lovr here.

  5. It’s all part of the plan! Arina is just too good. Since Rose can’t be the demon queen anymore, Nikka is placed on that role. She happens to have a grudge against Yuuki too, and Arina specifically made sure he believed she got away.

    Thanks for the chapter Lars!

    1. i don’t know anymore. the moment author-san show this later chapter it washed away my expectation as well my prediction of the story onward.
      i don’t know how far or what angle the story gonna turn anymore.

      1. I know how you feel haha. The author has really exceeded my expectations on all fronts. I just don’t know what to expect, but I think it’ll be good!

    2. But…wasn’t the one who said Nikka escaped with Glenn Rosé? We don’t know if Arina suggested for her to make that answer.

      She only said something to bring Yuuki back to reality and tends exercise minimal control over her pawns.

      I doubt even she knows exactly how this new history will unfold beyond conjecture.

  6. Oh sweet, the villains have popped out and it was still their first day.
    I’m curious about who arina dad is and if she is from the future.

  7. Nikka’s survival and powerup wasn’t Arina’s plan and i don’t think she noticed it (and that other girl either).

    Thanks for the chapters 🙂

    1. Of course she realize it. She hold future’s history book. It’s unthinkable for Arina to not realize how someone fragile like Rose can become a demon queen and what secret behind it. Everything is planned except for those second yandere double girl i suppose.

      1. No, she only know the results and not the method. She didn’t even know first that it was just a scheme to make Glenn a hero. The information she had was limited. Even those were mostly incorrect/lies because Glenn would have told lies and manipulated the people to believe what he wanted.
        After they changed the history now most things will be altered.

      2. No…that history book only contained the history as recorded “after the fact” it wouldn’t have told her anything about “how or why” it happened.

        It was noted that the “reality” presented differed from the “history she studied” and she admitted that her landing coordinates were off.

        Luckily, Arina is extremely quick witted and an evil genius so she only needed to make quick adjustments when the actual details presented themselves….case in point, repurposing Nikka’s bugs and hijacking Rosé as soon as they meet and then doubling down on the control by mindbreaking Rosé and force a voluntary transformation into her pawn.

        She’s brilliant and clever, but not omnipotent. She needed Glenn to take her to Nikka’s lab after al since Nikka was useless constantly had to readjust her movements on the fly.

        What’s truly scary is her ability to act as if she can see the future even she can’t actually see it.

        I’m seriously suspecting that Arina has a form of fores8ighting here…like vague sixth sense kind of precognition. It’d explain how she can seemingly act before anything gets too bad or is primed to be taken for her use.

  8. i usually check this site 2-3x per month, so i have few chapter to read.. and WOW!!! this is a nice surprise!! 25 chapter in a week!!! super AWESOME!!!! so ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty ty tyvm for the translations^^ LONG LIVE LAZY PIKACHU-SAMA xD

    1. Like from Bleach?

      No way…Aizen was an extreme egomaniac who loved nothing and was on a power trip.

      Plus, his schemes are too roundabout with minimal active roles on his part.

      Arina’s more than willing to dirty her hands and her schemes are far more fun to watch…you actually wanna root for her, scary as hell yandere evil genius or not.

  9. I’d complain about the disregard of the double tap were I not convinced this was all part of Arina’s plan. I freakin love her, but I do admit I’m put off by her and the other heroines at times. I like harmony and not harem in-fighting :/
