In the end, the original thod was used: the Magic [Snake] was used to override the cursed cara's effect, changing Nukumizu Kazuhiko back to a male.
"No matter how many tis, I can never get used to that feeling of wanting to crawl on my belly…" Nukumizu Kazuhiko rubbed his stomach, muttering with a sowhat unpleasant expression.
"If the human body is transford for too long, it can easily affect the subject's mind, and their behavior will start to resemble that of the transford species," Asakura explained to everyone, based on the tidbits of knowledge he had gained from the grimoire.
"I don't want to know such trivial facts!" Nukumizu Kazuhiko shivered and began to rack his brain, trying to rember if he had been affected by his experience of being turned into a snake.
"Don't worry, both of your transformations were very short; there won't be any lasting effects," Asakura reassured him. "At most, you might occasionally suddenly crave frogs."
"That's already a pretty severe effect, hey!" Nukumizu Kazuhiko complained. He looked at his sister. "Kaju, aren't you bothered by this?"
"It's fine. It just ans I have to add frogs to the nu. Kaju will have to research this thoroughly when I get back."
"You're focusing on the wrong direction!" Nukumizu Kazuhiko beca completely dejected.
Kaju, on the other hand, patted his head like an older sister, gently comforting him and telling her Onii-chan to cheer up.
"But then again, the problem was with the cara after all?" The girl looked at the digital cara charging in the corner, sowhat surprised. "But my family used this cara before, and nothing like this ever happened?"
"That's because your family mbers don't have magic. You yourself probably haven't used this cara much, have you?" Asakura asked.
"Well… after all, it's quite convenient to take photos with a phone nowadays," Nukumizu Kaju nodded.
"Exactly. Although it's called a cursed cara, it's essentially just a magic item. It can't function without magic, so it's just a normal digital cara. Its effects are only triggered when you, who possess magic, use it."
"But last night, when I took a picture of Onii-chan's drooling sleeping face, he didn't instantly turn into a girl?" The girl pretended not to hear her Onii-chan's wail of 'You actually took a picture like that?', and continued to ask Asakura.
"That's because I deliberately increased the magical output, speeding up the curse's activation," Asakura explained, then countered with a question. "By the way, where did you get this cara?"
"It seems like Dad found it in so used goods store a few years ago, but he lost interest after playing with it for a while. It's been in the storage room ever since. I only just dug it out two days ago when I was tidying up the house," Nukumizu Kaju explained.
"I see…" Asakura nodded thoughtfully.
To be honest, when he heard the girl say that, he actually felt a sense of relief.
Before this, Asakura had always had a suspicion: 'Could it be that all the anomalies in this world are appearing because of or the grimoire I brought?'
Although Asakura was not a saint, if it were truly the case, then if one day an anomaly that killed thousands of people appeared, even if he had a big heart, he would still feel so guilt.
And Nukumizu Kaju's words at this mont undoubtedly proved that this was not the case, because he and his grimoire had only been in this world for a little over half a year, while this cursed cara had already existed for several years. This ant that even without his arrival, strange and supernatural existences would gradually appear in this world.
Asakura felt that after understanding this point, he should be able to deal with those anomalies more calmly in the future.
"Is sothing wrong?" Asagumo Chihaya asked considerately, watching Asakura's expression change continuously.
"Nothing, just a slight change in my state of mind," Asakura shook his head. "Alright, everyone must be tired by now, so let's call it a day. If you have anything to say, we can talk about it later… Hmm, Nukumizu, if you have sothing to say, you can say it now, okay?"
"About my severe emotional trauma…" Nukumizu Kazuhiko asked dryly.
"Unfortunately, it's beyond saving. Farewell," Asakura said expressionlessly.
"I haven't even finished speaking!"
"After all, I'm not a part-ti Psychiatrist. If you absolutely want so kind of comfort… By the way, how about this: once the cara is charged, I'll turn you into a girl so you can legally and legitimately enter the won's bathroom or sothing?" Asakura suggested.
"Pervert," Gokou looked at Nukumizu Kazuhiko with icy eyes.
"That's not allowed, as a human being," Asagumo Chihaya said with a smile.
"Ahaha, even I can't agree with that…" Yuigahama Yui showed a smile that had dropped quite a bit in temperature.
"Even Onii-chan has things he can do and things he cannot do," Nukumizu Kazuhiko said with a smile.
"It was his suggestion, why are you all ganging up on ?!" Nukumizu Kazuhiko protested.
"Of course, it's because if I really wanted to do sothing like that, I could do it even without the cara, but I haven't done it until now. Doesn't that prove my character is quite solid?" Asakura replied as if it were obvious.
"Although he occasionally sees girls naked," Gokou retorted with a poker face.
"Even though it happened suddenly, forcibly taking a girl's first kiss is still a bit…" Yuigahama Yui shyly played with her fingertips.
Everyone's gaze turned to Asagumo Chihaya in order.
Asakura felt a slight relief; nothing too intimate had happened between him and Asagumo Chihaya.
A faint blush appeared on Asagumo Chihaya's face, and she held her face shyly. "Although there was a little blood, Takuma-kun was quite a gentleman that night~"
"No, no, that's not it at all, is it?" Asakura couldn't help but retort.
Gokou and Yuigahama Yui's gazes, like they were looking at a scumbag, made his neck hurt a little…
Nukumizu Kazuhiko was silent for a mont, then said to his sister, "Anyway, the cara, the culprit, isn't in our hands anymore, and Kaju, you don't seem to have any magic runaway situations. How about we just don't co here anymore?"
"But it's a fact that I have magic. If sothing irreparable happened one day due to magic runaway, then Kaju would definitely regret today's decision," the girl said seriously. "Besides, Yuigahama-senpai will protect , right?"
"That's right, don't worry, Kaju!" Yuigahama Yui patted her chest confidently, then looked at Asakura warily, with a righteous expression that seed to say, 'If you have anything to do, co at .'
Asakura gave her a look that said, 'You wish,' and, ignoring everyone, began to study the reward the system had given him.
