Chapter 738

〈 Chapter 738: Part 2, Chapter 6, Episode 02 〉

It’s been a while since my game character was a female.

How should I even process this revelation?

First off, upon gazing into the mirror, I’m struck with sheer shock at the realization that I’ve become a woman.

I prod various parts of my body and contemplate the changes to my national ID number before calling up an old friend.

Secondly, I confirm why exactly I’ve turned into a woman.

This is no mystery—it’s all due to Chairman Cho’s antics. Somehow, I got hit by someone’s TS Beam.

And third…

[Look at you!]

“……”

Inside me, Blazing Phoenix spreads her wings wide and goes absolutely berserk with joy.

[Being played as a female character! And get this—there’s even the ability to switch between male and female depending on whether it’s day or night! This is like a god-tier patch!]

“…Haa.”

A sigh escapes me involuntarily within the paused game world.

“Why do I always end up suffering like this…?”

Just when I thought I’d escaped that hellhole, here I am, transformed back into a woman.

Fortunately, the game has built-in safeguards that protect me logically. Playing as a woman doesn’t mean *I* in real life turn into one.

Besides, with Blazing Phoenix around to watch over me, I don’t feel too burdened.

“But why blonde hair and blue eyes specifically?”

[It kinda reminds me of Garura.]

Garura—one of the three great monsters under Phoenix. While Phoenix draws inspiration from the mythical phoenix, Garura takes its cues from the Garuda of Indian mythology.

I tamed her there once, converting her from beast to human to showcase Phoenix’s power. She proved incredibly useful.

Garura is essentially just a palette swap of Phoenix—no big difference beyond color tweaks.

‘Does something feel…off?’

I scrutinize my reflection again.

[There’s definitely a subtle difference.]

Compared to the real-world Shin-ra or the in-game Phoenix/Blazing Phoenix, there’s definitely something distinct about me now.

[If I had to describe it…you look like the daughter of Baek Cheonghwa and Phoenix.]

‘Hmm, yeah, that vibe.’

Imagine what would happen if a golden-haired Western man and Blazing Phoenix had a kid—this might be what they’d look like.

“…”

[Why?]

‘Because it feels like my female counterpart got NTR’d or something. Doesn’t she bear any resemblance to me at all? There’s not a single feature that matches mine.’

[…What nonsense are you spouting?]

‘No, seriously, think about it. If we’re talking “daughter,” then it’s like Baek Cheonghwa impregnated Phoenix and gave birth. Not me.’

[Stop making ridiculous claims and look closely—you’re dead-on identical.]

Is that so? Me?

[Your gaze—it’s unmistakably yours. Pfft.]

“…”

Of course it is; after all, it’s still me inside.

“I’m losing my mind… How do I even deal with this?”

Thankfully, my tone hasn’t been forcibly adjusted. Even though I’m in a female form, there’s no need for honorifics—I refuse them entirely.

“Will I definitely revert to being a guy at night?”

[Yes. It’s set up kind of like a curse right now. Once this ‘curse’ is lifted, we’ll likely be able to freely choose our gender.]

“Don’t most systems eventually lock players into one gender, usually reverting them to their original form?”

[True, but isn’t protagonist gender-switching surprisingly common these days? Mobile games often let you pick your protagonist’s gender freely.]

That may be true for choosing one fixed gender to play through, but isn’t my situation different?

“What am I supposed to do about this?”

I point downward. No matter how accustomed I used to be, this strange weight sensation is far from comforting after such a long time.

“What am I supposed to do with this magic pouch?”

[Do you know what happens if the heroine nurses from her breasts? The milk could potentially level you up. Breast milk is bodily fluid, after all.]

“Why would I even suckle…?”

[When I sucked on your nipples, you moaned so delightfully.]

“…”

For a moment, I’m speechless.

“That was during our consensual playtime as man and woman.”

[Wouldn’t it feel the same if I did it now? Want to experiment?]

Absolutely not. That’s completely unacceptable.

Unless I summon Blazing Phoenix in this world and things escalate physically, I won’t indulge in百合 (yuri) scenarios with her.

[I’m not saying I’m a lesbian, but yuri content does have its audience…]

“I prefer sex between men and women.”

Even if I acknowledge someone’s love, I can’t force myself to comply with something I don’t want.

No matter how much Blazing Phoenix or Shin-ra enjoy lesbian roleplay, I won’t transform into a woman!

“I clearly stated my boundaries. Don’t forget them.”

[…We’ll see in your dreams next time.]

“…”

The only way I’d adjust my sexual preferences for Blazing Phoenix would be in dream worlds.

In those dreams, she transforms me into Phoenix and gets intimate with me.

Though it’s all happening in a dream where memories fade, I know deep down that my dream-self is shedding tears over her techniques.

‘Sorry, dream-me.’

You must be enduring unimaginable lesbian roleplay as an unwilling Phoenix.

Why?

-Because if you let me indulge in lesbian play, I’ll do anything for you! What kind of play do you desire? Last time’s breast milk scene? Breeding press feeling stale?…Let’s go 24 hours straight… Hmph, if your penis dies, I’ll resurrect it for you.

All because the real me can offer incredible variety in exchange for engaging in lesbian play!

X.

I can only mourn silently.

“But becoming a female character entirely is problematic.”

[What about becoming a futanari? If you request it, they’ll add a penis for you.]

“How far do you plan to push my deviant desires?”

[What are you saying? Such a pervert. With a penis, you can thrust away without restraint.]

“…”

She makes a valid point.

To possess the body of a beautiful blonde girl AND have a penis attached?

‘Hydra would probably lose it.’

At least one of the officers would surely sever it instantly.

‘Still, I don’t want that.’

Regardless, I have no intention of walking around with these oversized breasts jiggling unnecessarily.

“Maybe I’ll just avoid activities during the day.”

During the day, I’ll stay in the office issuing commands, and only venture out into the field at night when I’m male.

[Futanari means you could still have sex!]

‘I give up.’

[Imagine lining up women, kissing and fondling their breasts while simultaneously penetrating them with your penis. Sounds pretty enticing, doesn’t it?]

‘I said I give up.’

Not even slightly interested—not a bit!

“The issue isn’t that. It’s how the kids will perceive me.”

[True. Suddenly, the commander has turned into a woman.]

How will they react? After running several simulations with Blazing Phoenix, I devise a basic strategy before resuming the game.

“…Yuna.”

“…”

I softly call out to Yuna, who’s closest to me. She looks up from some sort of puzzle-solving task and tilts her head curiously.

“What’s wrong?”

“Am I any different?”

“Commander…you’ve changed…”

Yuinah chuckles lightly while pointing at me.

“You’re different from last night. You were so wild then.”

“…”

“Yuna, listen. I can’t remember why I became a woman. Why did this happen suddenly?”

“…Hold on.”

Yuinah approaches me and pulls me into a tight embrace. My face presses against her soft chest.

“No fever…doesn’t seem like short-term memory loss either…”

“…”

Back when I was male, hugs were casual. But this natural physical contact from Yuna is unprecedented.

If I were male, Yuna would blush and hesitate before coming near. Now? She naturally pressed her chest against my face without hesitation.

‘This is unbearable.’

With a sudden movement, I bury my face into Yuna’s bosom. Initially startled, she soon begins stroking my hair.

“At night…we’ll do it at night.”

“…”

Through this conversation with Yuna, I quickly grasp the situation. Though I’m female during the day, I return to being male at night.

Turns out…

I’ve unknowingly developed a condition known as TS Syndrome.

* * *

In this world, monsters exist.

Among them, a particularly deranged monster stands out.

-My comrades, I detest men.

With that declaration, he launches into a lengthy speech.

Summarized:

-To transform all humanity into women.

Eradicate males.

This fiendish monster, whose true identity is male, plans to wipe out all human males, transforming them into women to bring about humanity’s downfall.

Outwardly denouncing men, inwardly he dreams of creating his own harem by turning everyone into women.

Adam of the new world.

The monster targets victims like Baek Cheonghwa.

-Haven’t you built a harem of beautiful women? Be my heroine!

He becomes a woman.

Luckily, he reverts to being male at night, but under the sunlight, he remains female.

“Seriously, this is how it works?”

Bizarre, yet undeniably true.

“Can the game system even allow magical transformations like this on the commander?”

[Game developers decide the rules. Pfft.]

The rules have shifted.

Upon investigation, everything else seems fine except that I fell victim to the TS monster.

I know who it is.

‘Blazing Phoenix.’

[What a terrifying monster! To aim to turn everyone into women…]

Ordinary people know the monster as male, but Phoenix possesses the ability to disguise herself convincingly as male.

Using cubes on the commander must be due to her status as the commander.

Not the commander?

-Take this, Langyi Thousand Transformations!

Touching the blue flames instantly turns one into a woman. Under even a sliver of sunlight, transformation occurs—what a fearsome power!

“Should I just restart the game?”

[The update has already been applied, and reversal is impossible. Just keep going. Pfft.]

“…”

Tears well up.

The fastest and surest solution would be to capture Blazing Phoenix and demand she provide a fix.

Torturing Phoenix might yield results.

She’d undoubtedly derive vicarious pleasure watching me engage in lesbian play resembling her.

“Ahh, this route won’t work.”

[What do you plan to do?]

“I’ll devour Phoenix.”

Typically, officers turn into fools when their vaginas are penetrated.

“I’ll boost my strength, fly to America, capture Phoenix, and rape her at night as a man.”

As my male self.

[How about inserting a futanari cock and gradually transitioning back into a man? The Dawn Gender Swap! Perhaps even Phoenix would fear such a spectacle.]

“…”

That’s intriguing.

“Alright.”

The goal for this route is set.

Sex with the heroine.

And…

Phoenix Raid…not rape.
