Avoid Yandere Constellation

A subtle atmosphere filled the mansion.

Then, Patrick finally gave an order to the knights who had just arrived.

“From now on, if you see any suspicious person, capture them immediately.”n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

“Yes!”

The royal knights saluted and straightened up at the order.

While they were searching for suspicious people, Kaine took out the highest-level potion from his Space Ring and sprayed it on the three people who were still dazed.

-Whoosh!

This time, he used the Holy Cross on Mikasa, who was the most severely injured.

“Ugh.”

Her body slowly recovered.

Fortunately, she wasn’t seriously injured and recovered quickly.

Then…

“Thank you, David von Kaine.”

“It’s nothing.”

I shrugged my shoulders at her words of gratitude.

‘Hmm. It seems to have worked out as I planned.’

What I aimed for was to raise awareness.

Everyone was serious, as if they had received the message properly.

Especially Patrick.

‘Yes, that’s right.’

Until now, the Cult had always been counterattacked, so there was a tendency for people to ignore them.

No wonder Lisa said during the entrance exam they were an incompetent group with no dignity.

‘Well, that’s not entirely wrong.’

That was only because of me.

If I hadn’t been there, could they have stopped the Cult’s terrorist attack?

I shook my head.

‘No way.’

Of course, one could think that without me, things would have proceeded as in the game, without the butterfly effect…

‘But this is reality, not a game, so who knows?’

Anyway, that’s not the point.

In addition to being ignored by the public, the nobles had always treated the Cult as a third-rate terrorist group.

After all, two of their executives had been killed by Ange and the students and professors of the Royal Academy.

But now, it’s different.

After all…

‘Andrew, the boss of the Cult, appeared.’

From the current atmosphere, it seemed like everyone was taking this situation seriously.

Just in case, I turned up the volume.

“I-is that third-rate terrorist group really that powerful?”

“That’s right. When I go back to my family, I’ll definitely have to tell my father to strengthen the security.”

“No, but will that stop them?”

“We can’t just sit around and do nothing, can we?”

As I listened to the nobles’ murmuring conversation for a while…

“Everyone, be quiet.”

Patrick silenced everyone with a serious voice.

At his words, the nobles closed their mouths.

Patrick sighed deeply with a complicated expression.

“Hoo. I don’t know if this is a good thing, but the reason I held the noble party was to talk about the Cult.”

The nobles began to listen intently to Patrick’s explanation.

Then, he continued.

“As you heard earlier, our royal family has been investigating them separately. However, we haven’t been able to find any useful information. So, I was thinking of asking for your cooperation, not just the royal family’s. I also wanted to let you know the seriousness of the Cult, and it seems like the boss himself has done a good job of informing us.”

Patrick looked around with a serious expression.

“So, everyone, explain today’s events to your family heads.”

“Yes, sir!”

The nobles responded with stiff faces.

With a disciplined attitude.

“Lord Patrick.”

At that moment, Kim Soo-yong called out to him cautiously.

Then, he asked in a way that no one else could hear.

“What do you plan to do about Edward von Gerald?”

“….Although Andrew said he had already killed him, we should still check. But in my opinion, the explosion sound came from that direction, so he’s probably already dead.”

“Still, just in case, I’ll go and check right away.”

“Okay.”

As I listened to the conversation between the two, I quietly turned the volume back to its original state.

Then…

“Hoo.”

“Haa…”

The three women next to me had a serious atmosphere.

Was it because they were shocked that their attack didn’t succeed?

They had sullen expressions on their faces, which was unusual for them.

‘Well, even so.’

I thought that this incident would make all three of them more aware.

After all, they would now know that the boss of the Cult was on a different level.

.

.

.

The next day, the noble party came to an end.

The nobles all boarded their carriages and headed back to where they came from.

However, since Skaya, Eileen, and Jenny lived in the royal capital, they boarded the David family’s carriage, which was the largest.

It was quite natural.

For a moment, a cold atmosphere filled the carriage.

Did they dislike this awkward atmosphere?

Jenny poked my side.

As if telling me to do something.

‘No, what do you want me to do?’

In fact, it was expected that the three women would be shocked when they confronted the Constellation.

But I never thought they would be this sullen.

After all, they had never shown such an expression before.

‘If I don’t do something, they might stay like this.’

But that’s a different matter.

Anyway, it wouldn’t be good to give them half-hearted comfort right now.

It’s undeniable that they rushed to me, but…

‘Even so, it’s better not to give half-hearted comfort.’

If I do, they might think they’re being pitied and become even more depressed.

So, when something like this happens, the best thing to do is to just stay quiet.

‘Silence is half the battle.’

As I was thinking this…

“We’ve arrived at the Elijah family mansion.”

We had arrived at the first destination.

At these words, Eileen snapped out of her daze.

“Then we’ll get off here!”

“We’ll be going now.”

Jenny tried to lighten the mood, while Eileen bowed her head with a slightly depressed expression.

The two quietly got up from their seats.

Just as the two were about to get off the carriage…

“Eileen, you did well.”

I said this with a worried tone.

Hearing this, Eileen…

-Grab!

She quickly hugged me, as if she had been waiting for this moment.

Then, she buried her face in my chest.

‘Hmm. It seems like the shock was quite big.’

It’s understandable why Eileen is like this.

After all, she had never been knocked down by an attack before.

Not even against a top-tier demon, Mikasa, or the adventurer hero, Tony.

As I understood her feelings, I patted Eileen’s head.

“Hoo. Hoo.”

For some reason, her rough breathing was felt on my chest.

What is this?

Her breath made my spine shiver.

She held me tightly, as if she didn’t want to let go.

‘Is this because she was sullen? Is that right?’

As I felt a sense of unease,

‘….?!’

A past memory flashed through my mind.

The words she spoke before she died came to my mind.

Eileen, who was about to die after being hit by the Constellation yesterday, came to mind.

Damn it. Is this a flag for him to die of a heart attack here?

“Kaine?”

Just as I was about to get goosebumps,

Eileen, who was hugging me tightly, tilted her head.

I scratched my head awkwardly.

“Ah, you did well, Eileen.”

“Yes, Kaine. You did well too. So did Lise and Skaya.”

Eileen bowed her head and got off the carriage.

After the carriage started moving again, I sat down.

The two people left in the carriage stared at me intently.

They were looking at me as if they wanted me to do the same to them.

If I gave them half-hearted comfort, I would only make things difficult for myself.

‘No, this can’t be considered comfort.’

I just said they did well.

I didn’t do anything else.

As I thought this,

“We’ve arrived at the Winton mansion.”

We arrived at another destination.

Skaya got up slowly, as if to make it obvious.

It was clear that she wanted me to do the same to her.

Otherwise, there was no reason for her to move like a sloth.

“….Me too.”

Skaya looked at me with sparkling eyes.

I responded to her earnest voice.

“No.”

I refused in a spiteful tone.

My refusal seemed to shock her.

Her already depressed face became even more depressed.

Seeing this, Lise poked my side.

“Young Master, if you don’t do it, Skaya-nim might really get upset.”

“Well, I’ll stop playing around and just say you did well, Skaya. Be careful going in.”

Normally, I would have flipped her off instead of saying such a cheesy line.

‘But I can’t do that because of the atmosphere.’

As I was feeling disgusted,

“We’ve arrived at the David mansion.”

We arrived at the last destination.

Lise boldly spread her arms and said,

“Young Master, please do it to me too.”

I sighed.

“Haa. Yes, Lise, you did well too.”

“Yes, Young Master, you did well too.”

She hugged me with a smile.

However, her hands were trembling.

She was trembling with resentment at not being able to do anything.

Thus, the noble party from the original story came to an end.

In front of my eyes, a message appeared, indicating that the hidden quest had been completed.

By the way, the Constellation, who had been watching this, was just fuming because she couldn’t do anything due to her descent yesterday.
