Chapter 317: Good Little Sister
(Umaru Perspective) (Himouto! Umaru-chan)
I looked at the girl in front of me as my heart filled with complicated feelings.
It's normal for my heart to feel deep hatred toward the monster that almost killed my friends, but it's hard for me to hate such an adorable waifu who sincerely wants to get along with me.
My feelings are complex as I am weak towards moe-style waifus that make adorable sounds and have cute expressions, but at the same time, I feel deep resentment every time I remember the way each of my friends was beaten, mutilated, and petrified...
[■: ^^ ■■■ <3]
"Paranoia-sama says that all the blame should fall on the boy" – The girl looked at me with innocent confusion. - "What a boy? The blame of what?
That is also true.
At that moment, the black ink covering the monster's skin disappeared, revealing the appearance of an adorable girl close in age to me.
She didn't seem to care that her body was being crushed by an invisible force, she just sighed in relief and thanked me as she cried with joy.
I couldn't ask for an explanation as Navi appeared next to the girl's ear and whispered something to her, then put what looked like a contract and a pen in front of her.
Although Navi has no face, at that moment I felt that he had the appearance of a moneylender trying to scam an innocent girl and then taking advantage of her body...
Paranoia-chan's eye stopped emitting purple light and the girl was able to raise her head. She signed the contract happily with a pen given to her by Navi, then the fairy started laughing like a psycho.
"Muahahahaha, another hole for the dog! That idiot is going to have to make me a double cheeseburger!" – At that time, Navi looked like the villain of an NTR doujin...
I couldn't fully understand what happened, but the girl explained the situation to me, rather, Paranoia-chan explained to me what was happening while the girl was the translator.
For starters, the girl can see the chat room because of Paranoia-chan. According to the explanation, a woman who calls herself Goddess made Paranoia-chan gain a small amount of authority over the chat room.
This authority is insignificant compared to Hiroki and the person helping him, but Paranoia-chan can make small changes, for example making the chat room visible to people outside the chat room.
The girl introduced herself as Ninomae Ina'nis, she seems to be rooted in Japanese culture so Ina'nis is her name and Ninomae is her last name. She's a long name so I called her Ina.
(Author's Note: Ina'nis Ninomae of Hololive)
According to the explanation, she was a normal human living in a world similar to mine.
She lived in peace, playing video games and watching anime, a normal otaku without anything special, perhaps the only special thing about her is that she is very shy, so she had no friends and preferred to stay at home all day.
One day, she went to a bookstore to buy manga, but a strange book caught her eye.
The book had no pages and the cover looked like some kind of unknown leather, but she felt strangely drawn to the book.
She touched the book and then her vision darkened.
When she regained consciousness, everything around her had been destroyed, the buildings were now ruins, the sky had lost all color, living things had disappeared, and not a single person was left.
This wasn't just in her city, it wasn't a disaster in her country either. All living things on her planet had disappeared.
Animals, plants, humans, and insects, everything had disappeared. The only thing left in the world was a black substance that now filled the seas.
Ina was confused and began to wander the world looking for other people.
Ina did not feel hungry, thirsty, sleepy, or tired, she was able to walk around the world while her hands never let go of the book without pages.
Sometimes, she felt that the book was talking so she started talking to the book. Strangely, she didn't think that was unusual.
Over time, she understood that the book was the cursed book described by Lovecraft, the Necronomicon.
Ina lost track of time as the sun and moon had disappeared, she just wandered the dead world for a long time.
For that long time, she could only converse with the Necronomicon, which helped her understand its secrets.
Ina finished touring the world, but she didn't find a single living thing or structure, the whole world was a wasteland with a black ocean.
Ina was bad at socializing, but loneliness got her down. Fortunately for her, the Necronomicon taught her a trick from someone called the "Opener of the Way."
Ina was able to summon a key horseshoe that allowed her to leave her planet in search of other people. She was afraid of social contact, but too much time alone made her sad.
Ina arrived at a place similar to an isekai anime. There were elves, people with furry ears, and magic.
She was excited to see the new world, but that happiness turned to confusion when people started screaming and running away from her.
Ina tried to talk to people, but people fell to the ground and convulsed every time she said a word.
Ina tried to be friendly, but large armies started attacking her for no reason.
She was terrified seeing thousands of swords pointed at her face. Ina had never fought, but her body moved on its own.
Without her wanting it, her mouth recited one of the incantations in the Necronomicon, the power of someone called "The Internal One".
It was at that moment that Ina understood what was happening and what had happened on her planet.
Ina didn't want to hurt other people, she just wanted to protect herself from magical attacks, but the power she used caused the entire kingdom to be flooded with magma.
Ina was horrified to realize she had been the cause of her home being totally destroyed. nôvel binz was the first platform to present this chapter.
Ina tried to hide away from the world, but everyone banded together to try and eliminate her.
Ina didn't want to hurt other people, but whenever she was in danger, her mouth would move on its own and invoke the power of the Necronomicon.
Elves, humans, furries, and demons, were all destroyed by Ina.
One day, Ina saw a group of five women and an extremely powerful Japanese man. Ina understood that she had become the monster from an isekai story.
Ina was so depressed that she wished for the peace that only death can bring, but her body ignored her wishes.
Ina killed two of the isekai protagonist's lovers, but the boy got a PowerUP which allowed him to hurt Ina, he even came close to killing her.
She managed to escape with the power of "Opener of the Way", but her death wish had only increased. She hated being a monster.
Despite all the pain and sadness, she couldn't let go of the Necronomicon. Even if that book had turned her into a monster, now that book was the only thing keeping her from drowning in loneliness.
Thus, Ina began to travel in search of a lonely and peaceful place, but things only became more dangerous with each trip. She had been on the brink of death so many times that her fear of death or pain had disappeared.
After a long time, she heard a voice that whispered a strange name to her.
Ina didn't want to get involved with any more strange powers, but she couldn't help but say that name.
Ina mentioned that now she is in the process of inheriting the power of something more terrifying than an evil god. She doesn't want to get that power, but her body doesn't obey her, every second she keeps absorbing that power and it's only a matter of time before she becomes a monster with no self-control.
Well, that used to be her fear, but now she seems to have that power under control.
My brother's cookies are terrifyingly delicious...
After Ina inherited that power, her journey only got worse.
A group of ridiculously powerful people began to chase her to whatever world she escaped.
She was too tired and hurt to use her power, so she was captured.
As of this point, Ina had almost no memories and didn't understand what had happened to her, but Paranoia-chan seemed to understand a lot of information, so she filled in the gaps in the story.
Ina is supposed to have been captured by a group of mad scientists. They plan to make Ina a sacrifice so they can control an entity whose power is beyond human comprehension.
From what I understand, Ina is inheriting the power of an Ancient One, but the mad scientists want to control an Outer God.
According to Lovecraft's accounts, an Ancient One is comparable to an earthly god, while an Outer God is equal to a cosmic disaster capable of threatening the universe.
I do not understand this scale of power that lacks levels or statistics with numbers, but I have one thing clear... We are screwed.
According to Navi, Ina has only absorbed 30% of the Ancient One's inheritance but compared to a true Ancient One, she is a slightly large insect.
The fight against Ina was similar to a match between a world-champion boxer and a boy with no limbs. It was such a one-sided fight that it seemed like a black humor joke.
The only reason we survived was that my brother sent Paranoia-chan and Navi.
That makes me question how strong my brother is...
I really don't want to think about it, he'll be so mad at me for leaving the house, so I don't want to think about how strong he's become...
Even though I'm deeply terrified of the punishment my brother will inflict on me, at least now I have a bit of information about his secrets... It's not worth it.
For now, I could only comprehend this as my mind is still unable to process all the information Ina gave me. According to her, my brother's protection prevents information about the secrets of the multiverse from affecting my mind.
Apparently, the influence of a chat room makes me vulnerable to certain types of information, and if I am exposed to that information without proper preparation, then there will be a negative effect called "System User Stupidity".
Now I understand why 9 out of 10 system users are complete idiots...
Another thing is that I can't understand what Paranoia-chan says because she uses a language that is exclusive to Madness energy carriers. She was born from that energy so she doesn't know another language.
Madness energy appears to be similar to radiation, just being near that energy can cause disasters on a global scale.
Ina is similar to a runaway nuclear reactor, she could destroy this world just by existing.
Fortunately, Paranoia-chan is able to use the purple energy to restrain Ina's power, so she can appear to be a normal girl, although her tentacle-like hair is a bit conspicuous...
Well, Mirko has bunny ears and people think they are part of a cosplay.
We'll just say that Ina is an otaku, which is true. She recognized me from the anime "Himouto! Umaru-chan" and she said that in that anime I am a hikikomori brocon that can turn into a stuffed loli... I didn't want to ask any more questions.
On the other hand, I don't have to worry about Madness from other monsters hurting me since I have a tiny shard of Madness in my soul. The shard is so tiny that I can't use that energy, but now I'm immune to the natural damage that energy generates.
Apparently, Paranoia-chan hadn't given me a special ability, but rather he implanted a seed of my brother's inside me... Ugh, that sounds gross.
I don't know what to make of the fact that my brother is a wielder of the Madness energy, but what surprises me the most is that I'm really not surprised. My brother has never been someone mentally sane...
Ina said that my brother's energy was very nice, maybe too nice... She started invading my personal space, so I had to give her some cookies to stop her from harassing me.
Even though I'm still mad at Ina because she almost murdered my friends, it's also hard for me to hate her since it's the first time I've been able to talk about anime with a girl close to my age, at least outwardly.
I hate to admit it, but I'm starting to see her as a friend.
I think I have an emotional attachment problem. I need therapy...
In addition to the fact that we share many likes and hobbies, she gives me a little sense of security.
Paranoia-chan mentioned that when we travel, there will be a new waifu so I should prepare to give her cookies before Hiroki tries to use the aphrodisiac dagger. That idiot is desperate to get his thing into a waifu, so it won't be weird if he turns into a rapist.
Paranoia-chan also confirmed that my theory about heroes and villains was true. Mei Xueyan is part of the villain team as she despises humans and is not compassionate towards the weak, so the next waifu should be someone from the hero team.
I hope she's not another idealistic waifu, I already have a lot of problems with Medaka's speeches...
For now, I'm not afraid of Hiroki since I have the most OP Pokémon in this region, the adorable Monster-Tako Ina-chan.
"I'm not a monster!"
She did not deny being an octopus...
Ina can't get us out of this pocket multiverse, but she is free to use spatial abilities within this place. She can create space gates for the Infinite Stratos waifus to accompany us to the next world, though we'll keep that under wraps for now.
Something important is that I confirmed my theory that Hiroki is a puppet who only thinks with his dick. He doesn't know why the waifus aren't turned on by his gaze, nor does he understand that his perverted attitude isn't great and only causes disgust.
Although Hiroki is a brainless idiot, the real problem is his assistant, the chat room administrator.
According to Paranoia-chan, one of the scientists became the manager of the chat room and is watching over the experiment where we are the research materials.
For now, my actions have not been discovered as a woman called Goddess is falsifying the information, but I must be careful not to be excessive with my actions.
In fact, we already have a problem.
Originally Hiroki must have managed to stab Ina. The dagger had a powerful aphrodisiac curse, so Ina would become Hiroki's sex bitch after receiving the attack.
Ina may be strong, but her soul is still that of a mortal human, so those kinds of curses can take over her body.
Even if the chat room is damaged, that dagger must have hurt Ina. The only reason Ina wasn't affected by the aphrodisiac was that Paranoia-chan received help from the supposed goddess to nullify Hiroki's abilities temporarily.
The fucking shota of shit is a fucking incubus... Every day my desire to castrate him with a cheese grater grows, although I don't want to be near his crotch either.... Hmm, maybe shooting him in the testicles will do the trick.
"Hey Listen! Tie him to a wall and make him watch your brother impregnate all the waifus!"
.....
"Umaru-san, don't accept what the fairy says! Paranoia-sama has already warned you that your brother hates pointless torture and won't allow other men to look at his women either!"
...Okay, I won't...
It's hard to have morals when I've spent my whole life watching everything around me go to hell because of alcohol, gambling, and violence.
Stupid fanfic protagonists, they have such easy lives that it's not fair...
"Umaru-san, you don't need to be jealous of people who have easier lives, just focus on enjoying what you have" – I felt Ina's hand on my shoulder. – "You have an older brother who loves you and will do everything possible to protect you... You are lucky to have someone who loves you so much"
I looked at Ina and saw that her kind smile had a trace of loneliness.
Although I can't forget the resentment I feel because she hurt my friends, I can also empathize with her sadness.
I smiled. – "Paranoia-chan already said it, now you won't be alone either"
I pointed to Ina's hand.
The Infinite Stratos waifus and the chat room looked at me like I was crazy when I mentioned that they must be my brother's wives, but there was a woman who listened to me.
The rings that Navi gave to the waifus are silver, but it was as if they had lost all traces of shine.
On the other hand, on Ina's ring finger was a brilliant gold ring that shone like the most beautiful star in the sky.
I don't know if it's a side effect of loneliness, torture, or a death wish, but Ina seemed happy to have someone who was willing to love her even though she turned into a monster.
She doesn't know my brother yet, but she is already my sister-in-law...
I wonder what face my brother will have when he finds out about this.
I know he'll be mad, but seeing the frustrated look on his face is fun. That's why I like to call him Onii-chan, that always makes him angry.
"Hey Listen! I'm sick of internal monologue! Now go get waifus for your stupid onii-chan!" – Navi got the hobby of throwing food at my face.
That popcorn isn't what my brother made, so he doesn't mind wasting it.
It makes me angry to see people wasting food as I know how terrible hunger is, but I recognize that all the food looks like garbage when compared to the food made by my brother.
I sighed, I really miss my brother.
I hope that he is fine...

(Luis Perspective)
I sighed internally, this is shit.
"Luis...." – Tsubaki spoke with concern.
"Friend..." – Ortro's voice is distorting.
I spoke calmly to calm the women in my mind. – "I'm fine, focus on the plan"
"B-But..." – Nia's voice trembled. – "Your body is not regenerating..."
I sighed and looked at my arms, or what was left of them. It's been a long time since I've seen my bones.

It's hard to make precise calculations without the help of System Goddess and Paranoia, but they are busy with something more important than my physical integrity.
"You are too carefree with your own life" – Yoko frowned. – "Even if you do not have the concept of Death, that does not mean that you are invincible"
"What does it matter" - I mentally shrugged. – "As long as my wives are safe, no matter what happens to my body, in the end, it's just disposable meat"
"..." – Yoko had a complex expression. – "Tch, idiot"
I felt the [Rasen] energy increase in power.
"Hurry up and finish this" – Yoko snorted with annoyance, although she is not able to hide the concern in her eyes.
I still don't like tsunderes, but Yoko is kind of cute.
I looked at the entity in front of me.
"Hero of Harmony, to think that someone close to Auriel would have the power of black blood... You are a fascinating specimen"
In front of me was a fucking snake the size of twenty universes.
The universe is theoretically infinite, so how is it possible for that thing to be five times infinite?
Conceptual garbage, do not look for meaning.
I was about to continue my tragic hero act, but something annoying happened.

NAVI!!!
I don't know how, I don't know when, I don't know why, but I'm sure that fucking idiot did this.
The fucking idiot disappeared when he started the plan to distract the enemy.
He is supposed to steal the useful information in this laboratory since I intend to destroy everything that exists in this place, but that idiot disobeyed my orders and went to do something troublesome...
"...." - Tsubaki sighed. – "Luis, you have to punish that idiot, this is already too much..."
.....
I'm going to hit that jerk.
It's a good thing BB isn't here or the teasing would be endless.
I sighed internally and focused on the battle.
I'm going to take out my frustrations by beating this idiot up.
