Chapter 25: My Kingdom

＊＊＊

"Nice to meet you. I'm Donut, the master of this vast land."

Donut, who was directly controlled by Tiantian, extended her hand to Toge in a friendly manner, with a charlatan-like smile on her reserved face.

Toge: "?"

The boy was stunned for a moment, and couldn't think of a suitable word to answer Donut's words.

The master of this vast land?

The vast land? Did it refer to the technical college?

"Donut, do you know a person named Yaga Masamichi?" [1]

Toge paused and said tentatively to the girl with a simple smile.

Although Donut looked very stable now, Toge was 80% sure that this girl's mind was still in a very confused stage. Not only that, Donut seemed to have cognitive confusion.

But it didn't matter.

As long as he took care of her for a day, he would try to clear Donut's mind.

Toge didn't know how far she could go, but he won't give up.

"Moths walking on the sidewalk at night? I don't know if it's from here. What is it used for?" [1]

Donut blinked slowly after hearing Toge's question, she kept a proper smile on her lips and asked politely.

"..."

Toge looked at Donut and blinked awkwardly.

"Donut, your grammatical understanding is wrong. This is not describing arthropods, this is—"

"Okay, I know, thank you, dear Dog-san, just tell me what it is used for." [2]

Before Toge finished explaining, Tiantian, a fast-attack player who pressed the space bar to jump to the plot, ruthlessly interrupted his conversation and self-centeredly rounded off the next plot and went straight to the point.

Toge: "..."

The boy stood there pitifully, blinking his big purple-gray eyes. His tall and thin body showed loneliness and coldness under Donut's perfunctory attitude.

Toge wanted to explain that his last name was Inumaki, not dog but seeing Donut's face full of "I don't care, motherf*cker", he didn't know how to start. [2]

He opened his mouth hesitantly and saw Donut's innocent smile, and finally couldn't say a word.

"..."

After a moment of silence, Toge could only answer her question obediently.

"Mr. Yaga is the principal of this school."

So all the damage you have done in the technical college, Donut-san, would be paid for by Mr. Yaga in the end.

But it couldn't be said that Principal Yaga was the owner of the technical college, it could only be said that he was currently the owner of this school.

The real ownership of the technical high school should belong to the senior management of the Jujutsu Association.

Anyway, Toge didn't know much about this thing.

But Inumaki boy thought it was still necessary to popularize the current environment of the technical college to Donut. After all, Donut would also live here in the future.

"Oh, principal."

Donut put her hands behind her back, and there was a sharp and wise light in her dark blue eyes.

She calmly looked at Toge who was waiting for her to speak, and smiled gracefully, then said something that made Toge's scalp numb.

"Principal, right? It doesn't matter, he is under my jurisdiction."

Toge: "QAQ"

This didn't make sense at all!

This matter-of-fact attitude and the calm tone, Toge suddenly thought that he was sitting in the courtyard with Donut, drinking tea and chatting after dinner.

And Donut's melodious appearance made the Inumaki boy dream back to the first time he came to the high school: meeting with the grandpas and grandmas of the school board with Principal Yaga.

Those grandpas and grandmas seemed to have the same attitude of ease.

Facing Principal Yaga's cautious attitude, he sipped his matcha very politely, and then said to Principal Yaga with disdain— now the Tokyo District was under our direct supervision.

Then, Principal Yaga was so angry that he broke his old-fashioned sunglasses when he went out.

And Donut, the "emperor's arrogance" that she inadvertently revealed, the effect and visual pollution seemed to be stronger than those grandpas and grandmas.

"Donut, actually—"

Toge was anxious to correct Tiantian's crazy thinking, but before he finished, Donut's finger suddenly blocked Toge's lips.

"!!!" Toge's pupils shrank instantly.

Donut's dark blue eyes were close at hand, and the light of wisdom inside was shining with the stars.

The boy's whole body was numb, and cold sweat crawled down his smooth back.

Not for anything else.

It was just because Donut's finger attack speed was too fast, just like a small steel rod; it hit his lips hard.

At that moment, the soft lip meat and the hard pearly teeth collided violently, and a faint bloody smell spread from the front of the tongue tip to the taste buds of Toge's entire mouth.

Toge: "..."

To be honest, it was a little painful.

"Hush, don't talk, Dog-san."

Tiantian stiffly performed the girl's comic scene he accidentally saw on A-B manga, and unconsciously played himself into a girl holding an oil-paper umbrella and walking through the rapeseed field. [3]

However, Tiantian did not have a God's perspective, so she could not feel embarrassed, she was very satisfied with her performance.

Donut smiled slightly, and her white and neat teeth formed a beautiful landscape in the night.

Then, she pointed to a very fierce and dark tree in the night, and said meaningfully to Toge, who was stunned, "Look, Dog-san, the Sakura in my hometown has opened."

Toge: "..."

The white-haired and beautiful boy whose lips were ruthlessly blocked by Donut was extremely stiff all over. He dared not move, and his eyes like amethyst could only move stiffly in his eye sockets, slowly moving his sight to the tree pointed by Donut.

In the night, the dark tree was extremely sturdy, the old roots were intertwined like the faces of mummies, lingering on the bloated body of the tree.

The branches on the tree were like countless huge mosquito mouthparts under the darkness; swaying gently with the breeze, it seemed that they would reach into the windows of the dormitory building at any time, insert into the sleeping bodies of humans, and suck blood in big mouthfuls.

Combined with Donut's pale face and weird smile, Donut now looked like a female ghost, surrounded by a cold and gloomy breath.

Toge: "...uuhhh..."
My legs were a little numb.

The boy stared at himself and touched Donut's sinful fingers against his lips with his trembling little hands.

Warm, a living person.

"Come, dear friend and classmate, I will show you this land, I will show you my ability."

Tiantian looked at the slightly warmed favorability on the screen and decided to strike while the iron was hot.

Take the dog man to the station selected by the system and start to clean up.

After saying this to Toge, Donut put down her finger, turned around and walked away, leaving Toge confused.

"???"

Toge looked at Donut's arrogant look and hurriedly followed her.

At the same time, Toge felt like he was just a tool, accompanying Donut to perform a dispensable one-man show.

Maybe Donut's consciousness was not very clear now, but Toge felt that Donut didn't care about him at all, as if she had been doing her own thing with a clear goal from beginning to end.

This feeling made Toge feel uncomfortable again.

"Liu– Donut! Wait a minute"

No matter how uncomfortable he felt, he still had to take good care of Donut.

In order to prevent Donut from running around, Toge hesitated for a moment, but still stepped forward and held Donut's hand.

"..."

After holding Donut's hand, Toge carefully looked up at Donut's reaction.

The girl in front of him was walking on her own from beginning to end. Even when her hand was held by a man, she didn't even turn her head back. It could be said that she was very natural.

In this situation, Toge didn't know whether to breathe a sigh of relief or feel a little depressed.

So, the two held hands and walked briskly on the school trail.

[Location: School Pond]

"Look, those are ducks, right?"

After arriving at the destination, Donut pointed to a group of mallards resting by the rockery in the pond and said to Toge with a smile.

"Yes?" Toge was a little worried about the safety of the ducks. He hesitated and looked at Donut's calm expression, silently tightening Donut's hand.

To be honest, Toge was a little worried that Donut would suddenly rush into the pond and harm the ducks.

On this side, Tiantian looked at the [10 improved varieties of Call ducks] and [Recipe: Sweet and Sour Duck King] in her backpack on the screen; she already knew what she was going to do.

Wake up, hunting time.

Donut's little hand, which was not held by Toge, gently pointed in the direction of the ducks. The ducks on the lake began to disappear one by one under Toge's eyes.

The fat bodies of the ducks were wiped out silently, leaving only one or two emerald green feathers on the rockery, which could prove that the duck kings were once the top of the food chain in this pond.

At the same time, Donut's backpack had twelve more delicious crimson sweet and sour duck kings in white porcelain plates.

On the lake, a group of snow-white Call ducks ruthlessly occupied the habitat of the mallards. They were energetically combing their feathers under the rockery and calling out [quack], they seemed to be very satisfied with this new home.

"..."

Toge was silent for a moment, turned his head and pulled Donut's hand.

"Is this also your technique? They seem to be turning white... and they seem to be getting cuter..."

But why do they seem to be missing two?

Facing Toge's question, Donut smiled and said nothing.

'No, I killed them.'

She really didn't understand why this game actually kept this kind of mallard meat duck as a pet in the pond.

It's okay, Dog-san, when I settle down, I would have a housewarming party. Then I would treat you to two plates of tender and juicy duck king.

[1] Yaga's name in Japanese is "夜蛾正道 Yaga Masamichi". If you translate by each kanji of his name, it roughly can be translated as "owlet moth" or "night moth" from "Yaga 夜蛾".
And from "Masamichi 正道" can be translated as "the correct path", "the right way" or "path of righteousness".
Well, you can mismatch his name :D

[2] Toge's surname, "Inumaki 狗卷" contains the word of "inu 狗" which means "dog". Remember, it's common for Chinese to have one character as surname, so Tiantian thought (and probably being little sh*t she is) "inu 狗 dog" is Toge's surname.

[3] I assume it's PG rated manga/comics
