## Chapter 361 – Special Episode Commemorating 400,000 Views (Tentacle TIMES [2])
Having crossed back through the door into the quiet room, I looked down at my取材手帳 (interview notebook) with a satisfied expression.
“Ahem… I’ve taken care of the two biggest figures…
So the next one will probably be the last interview subject.
Originally, I wanted to interview everyone individually…
But there’s not enough space to publish it all!!
Of course, I’m still planning to coast through the second round…
But I think milking 10 episodes out of just special editions is a bit much…
So, the last interview subject is……!!”
Cutting off the idle chatter, just as I was about to announce my next interview target…
“Hey, Mister!! It’s me, right?”
“There’s no way it’s you, right? Of course, it’s me.”
A voice that shouldn’t be heard suddenly came from behind, and I turned my trembling neck with great effort to look back.
Behind me, two girls were engaged in a fierce debate, bickering like rivals.
“Aurora!! You already got a past episode!!
I haven’t even had a chance to tell my story yet, you know?”
“Not that you really told it properly, did you?
And Ranier-nim’s episodes are pretty obvious, aren’t they?
It’ll just be stories about her being an arrogant, delinquent young lady.
What else would there be? That’s just how nobles are!!”
“Uh… who are you guys…!!
How did you get in here!?
This is beyond the dimensional barrier… in 3D…!!”
My question was delivered to them in a trembling voice, but all that came back was Ranier’s smile, which was both bright and somehow frightening.
“There are ways, you know~
Oppa!! Me!! Me!! Interview me quick~”
“I’m the one who got you here!!
Do you know how long I was stuck with the grimoire trying to break through?
I achieved this goal by studying, something I never do!!
Ranier-nim, move aside!!”
“No way…!! I want to tell my story too!!
I want to share my story……!!”
“Eek!! Don’t grab my hair, you golden gorilla!!
My next appointment is a meeting with Flora’s business partners!!
My hair will get damaged!! Let go of it now!!”
“I’m a yellow crazy woman, okay!?
You’re the chimera that Darling completely remodeled!!
Frankenstein!!
Ah!! Let go!! Won’t you let go!?”
“F-Frankenstein!?
The original was good, so the plastic surgery worked well, right…!!
What’s so great about being a golden gorilla!!
I’ll let go on three!!
One!! Two!! Aaaah!!”
“Eeeeek!! You said you’d let go…!!”
“This is a crazy situation…
I need to get out of here…!!”
Now they were grabbing each other’s hair and fighting, so I saw my chance and carefully turned around.
I quietly tried to escape, tiptoeing forward, but I noticed the sudden silence in the room, and awkwardly smiled as I turned back.
“Hold it… Oppa…
Don’t tell me you were trying to run away……?”
“Hehe~ Were you trying to escape?
Right in front of us……?”
Seeing the two women glaring at me as if they hadn’t been fighting at all, I started running away with all my might.
But Aurora, as if amused, snorted and threw a super-fast fastball at me, as if possessed by a pitcher.
“Catch that one…!!
He won’t get far after being hit by Nemea!!”
“Kuh-ack…!! To use the Nemea I designed like this…
All the strength… is draining away……”
Hearing Ranier shout triumphantly as she watched, I couldn’t resist the closing of my eyes and passed out.
In the end, I was caught and tied to a chair, forced to listen to their endless grievances and complaints for hours.
They said that the reason their parts were small was because the writer was incompetent, and that the master must make them his at the ending.
In the process, my interview notebook was also stolen.
Seeing them now scribbling in my interview notebook and laughing gleefully, I wondered if I could salvage this interview.
Just as I was worrying about how to write the next article, another concern was voiced…
‘She wants to sleep with someone new soon…’
This seemed to be Ranier’s wish.
She was starting to feel a bit of ennui with the other hive members and even the tentacles.
‘Hey…!! Hey!! A log tentacle is too much!!’
Aurora, who already enjoyed having her insides stirred with an extreme tentacle, wanted something thicker and more filling, something that would completely destroy her womb…
The more I imagined it, the more scared I became.
“Ughhh!! Okay, okay!!
I’ll do it, so untie me!!”
“Ehet!! So, Oppa…!!
You should have done it when I asked you to!! Right?
You know how grateful I am to you, right?”
Ranier, her face brightening as I agreed to her demands, came over and dusted off the dirt on my shoulders.
She patted my body with her hands, then suddenly put her hand on my thigh…
“But Oppa……
You seem a bit substantial for a human…?
You even feel a bit dashing……
Shall we… do something good……?♡”
“I called dibs on that one first, you know?
Let’s not interfere, Ranier-nim?”
“You can do it with Darling later!!
You said you don’t like anyone but Darling anyway, right?”
“This is a special episode, isn’t it?
I can’t even leave work right now, so I need to kill some time, right?
It’s a waste of time to be like this, so this guy has to pay with his body.”
I was just something to kill time with.
Regardless of my chastity, I felt a sense of defeat as a human from the start.
Anyway, I gently crouched down, raised both legs slightly, and struggled to twist my body, even while tied up, to grab the microphone next to me.
“JoongJang is free!!”
“Ah!! He’s escaping!!”
And with my body still tied to the chair, I threw myself at the door with all my might, and as the door burst open, leaving behind the two women who were trying to grab me in surprise, I was finally able to step into a new world.
“The door is closed, so they can’t chase me this far……
No, is this a flag……?
Ugh… Anyway, let’s quickly move on to the next interview subject.”
My body was tied up, but thanks to the impact, the chair broke, and the ropes were finally loosened. After wiggling my body for a few minutes, I was finally able to be free again.
Having once again realized the greatness of the instinct for survival in a situation where I was almost sucked dry by two human leeches, I looked around the place where I was and began to shake off the dirt from my body.
“But I can’t see the interview subject……
She’s definitely somewhere around here…… Ah, found her.”
A desolate wasteland with occasional dry grass.
The atmosphere, which was far from the royal capital of Groden, indirectly told me that this was another world.
Amidst this, large rocks were embedded in various places, and under the shadow of one of those rocks, I was able to find a person.
“Uh… let’s see… is that her……?
Crimson… roughly purple hair… that’s her, right?”
A girl was crouching under a large rock, burying her face in her knees.
Next to her was a long sword that looked reasonably usable, covered in some blood and dirt, scattering a gloomy sword light as it reflected the sunlight pouring down from the sky.
But looking at the girl’s unmoving appearance, some might suspect that she had died in that position.
However, the occasional faint trembling of her shoulders allowed one to infer that she was still alive, and in a state that was clearly different from usual.
“Hello, I’m from the entertainment department of Tentacle TIMES.
Are you Anne de Monehen?”
“……”
As expected, she didn’t even react to the question and remained silent, so I scratched the back of my head.
How am I supposed to interview someone who doesn’t react?
But reactions can be elicited.
That’s the ability that writers need most, so I began to speak to her in a low voice.
“Anne de Monehen.
The second daughter of the Monehen baronial family, with one older sister.
The family relationship is harmonious, and she is very close to her sister, but she has no particularly defined career path.
So, she hastily decided to enter the academy, following her sister, who had entered the Department of Magical Design at Saint Flansina Academy.”
Perhaps this was a reaction.
At the rambling voice, the trembling in the girl’s shoulders gradually increased.
My face, which had walked up to her, was gradually approaching her ear as she crouched down.
“After entering the academy, she maintained relatively good grades.
However, she did not adapt to the academy environment, and conflicts between students were frequent.
Then, she had a major conflict with Vivian de Grenot, the daughter of the Marquis, and was subjected to group bullying.
As a result, the family was subjected to large-scale behind-the-scenes operations, and the family was in danger of disintegrating.
After that, the Grenot young lady disappeared, so she was relieved for a while.
Before long, the family became precarious, and after witnessing her sister suffering, she made a decision and debuted as a dirty ‘whore’ at Mademoiselle in the back alleys.
At the time, the price was one gold coin, which was about a month’s living expenses for a family of four in extreme poverty.
If you paid one and a half gold coins, you could get a facial or an in-womb shot, a low-level whore who could get pregnant with a child from a man you didn’t even know.”
“Hic……”
By the time the words were finished, it was almost a soft whisper, like whispering sweet nothings in her ear, but the content was not romantic at all.
Hearing this, Anne shook her arm as if to shake me off, and made a sobbing sound as if trying to hold something back.
But her nasal tone, as if she were about to cry at any moment, could not stop my mouth, which had begun to move as if it had a motor.
“She has a man she adores, even though she’s a whore who’s already been thoroughly defiled.
That man is a man in his 30s from Barmhausen named ‘Edward von Rommenberg’.
He is a respectable associate professor in the Department of Swordsmanship at the academy, and also the homeroom teacher for the first-year students.
And…… he has a fiancée named ‘Eloise de Fantini’, who is practically married.
Not only did she seduce such a married man with her young and lewd body, but she is currently in a love rivalry with Lucia di Borgia, a senior in the same department and an assistant at the academy.
No, she already ‘eliminated’ that rival herself……?”
“G-go… away……”
“She must have respected the Borgia Duchess’s daughter as a senior and a disciple.
But she couldn’t bear to have her only spiritual support, Edward, taken away from her.”
“Lucia-senpai is… a good…”
“So you killed her, right? To be exact, you threw her into a danger equivalent to death.
But a favorable situation was created, a crevasse battle that was harsh and dangerous?
Lucia, who had saved her from the crisis, was in a dangerous situation and asked her for help.
At first, she would have tried to help Lucia and escape together. That’s right…
But she already knew that she couldn’t compete fairly.
So, wouldn’t she have thought this?
If I just close my eyes and step on her hand once, the corpse that can’t return will be silent?
It’s the easiest and safest way to eliminate a competitor, right?”
“I… I……!!”
– Woo↗woo woo↘ Woo↗ woo woo woo↘ Woo↗ woo woo↘
Suddenly, a strange background music that I seemed to have heard a lot in these situations started to play, but let’s just assume it’s my imagination.
“How about thinking about what might have happened to that woman by now?
Earth fairies are quite cruel for their appearance, right?
What will happen to a ‘woman’ who has fallen from a high place and been injured, without weapons, against such creatures?
It would be better if she was eaten nicely.
They can’t breed between species, but they can use women as toys.
By now, she’s already in their dark lair, with her limbs mangled…”
“Ugh… Hic…… No…
That’s not… ugh….. Hic…
I… Senpai…… ughhh!!”
In the end, she denied reality to the end and burst into tears, and I got up from my seat with a subtle smile.
And as I turned my back on her and walked out of the shade under the rock, I felt a slight dizziness in the brightly shining sunlight.
In that mood, I glanced back at the girl crouching in the dark shade of the rock in the bright background, her shoulders heaving in a way that looked so pathetic.
I gently murmured and gently closed the interview notebook in my hand.
“I’ve really made you a bad woman.
What choices will your struggles bring?
And… what kind of outcome will you face?
Even I’m curious about that……?”
Looking ahead like that, I gave a welcoming smile to the people who were watching me beyond this screen.
“That seems to be the end of today’s interview.
『Academy Tentacle』. A work with many ups and downs, and one that you may hate…
Personally, I think it’s a work that will become more and more interesting in the future!!
So far, this has been the interview special conducted by Tentacle TIMES!!
This is JoongJang, your beloved writer and a one-day reporter from the entertainment department!!”
Finishing my last greeting, I put my hand on the doorknob to return home again.
I looked forward to the events that would unfold in the world of Academy Tentacle, and slowly opened the closed door with a happy feeling.
That’s right. The future will be a very enjoyable time.
“You may have come in as you pleased…
But you’re not leaving as you please, Boy~♡
Get your dick ready!! Oppa needs to be punished a little!!
Slapping those balls is surprisingly fun, you know?
Should I cut off your balls first?”
“The wording is really vulgar, Ranier-nim?
But I sometimes like that kind of thing♡
Shall we YY your XX and ZZ it?”
At the same time as the sweet and cute voice was heard, when I finally remembered the people who were waiting outside the door, it would already be too late.
“Ah… no……!!”
“Yes……!!”

– Woo↗woo woo↘ Woo↗ woo woo woo↘ Woo↗ woo woo↘
In memory of our JoongJang, who was sucked to death by a succubus.
『Became a tentacle monster that bloomed in the academy flower garden』. – The End
