My Loyal Retainers Are Pushing Me to Become the Zenin Clan Head

The evil spirit Rina awoke inside a body that had only just lost its warmth.

The good news: The body’s former owner was also called Rina, Zenin Rina.

“I like it here,” Rina remarked.

After who knew how many years as an evil spirit, Rina was best at exploiting human malice to stir up conflict. The Zenin family was the perfect playground.

Naturally, Rina settled into the great Zenin family.

Her peaceful life ended when a new guard suddenly appeared in the courtyard.

He was better at household chores than the Zenin girls and called her “Master” all day long.

A harmless subordinate, if a little too clingy.

Then one stormy night, that harmless subordinate killed Rina’s nominal fiancé.

“How dare he insult you?!” The guard’s violet eyes blazed with anger.

“Master, you’re the one who deserves to be head of the family! Let me serve you!”

Huh??!

So this was what I wanted.

Rina thought. Her fiancé, lying crookedly on the ground beside her, was no longer important or interesting enough.

Hasebe was interesting. The Zenin elders weeping in despair were interesting. And the curses who kept insisting she was one of them, even though they were pathetically weak, were interesting too.

Everything delighted Rina.

...Well, everything except being pushed into becoming head of the Zenin family. Thanks.

From the very first moment, Hasebe knew Rina was his future master.

His master was cold, as delicate as a doll.

He was happy to be controlled by her.

Kill retainers? Burn down temples? Even dirty work was fine! He was willing to do anything for his master!
