It’s been about a week since the duel with Ogtein.
Let me tell you what happened during that time.
First,
[The Goddess of Fate tells you not to go near the girls.]
Recently, the Constellation has changed for the worse.
Why has she changed like this?
After the duel, I was in a good mood because I earned points, but suddenly, the Constellation confessed to me.
At the time, I thought, ‘Oh, this girl just wants attention.’ I wanted to think that, anyway.
If I didn’t, I’d end up with a heaven-and-hell mixed fainting ending.
But that wasn’t the case.After observing her reactions for a week, I have to admit that the Constellation has changed for the worse.
Huff… If only I could choose the time of my return, I wouldn’t have to worry about this.
The problem is that when I die, I return to the beginning of the incident, just like in a game.
So, if I die due to a yandere incident, I regress way before that. But by that time, it’s certain that the Goddess will already be planning to lead me into another yandere situation.
In other words, I have to get out of her sight to complete the quest.
….., How do I get away from the Constellation?
It’s easier said than done. It’s almost impossible for a mortal to escape the sight of a transcendent.
In essence, it’s like telling me not to complete the quest and just let the yandere ending happen.
So I have to take measures before the yandere quest appears.
As I was thinking deeply about the Constellation,
[The Goddess of Fate says the girls are looking at you!!]
She sent me a message, fuming.
I’m worried that the yandere ending I saw in the last scene might happen to me, not Kim Soo-yong.
….., Damn. I need to send that girl to Kim Soo-yong quickly.
I felt the need to have a serious conversation with the Constellation.
.
.
.
By the way, it’s not just the Constellation who has changed.
After the Academy lecture ended, I walked towards the mansion.
The male students around me avoided my gaze and whispered to each other.
I could tell what they were saying just by looking at them, but I turned up the volume adjustment to listen in.
‘By the way, what happened to Senior Ortin?’
‘Haven’t you heard the rumor? Senior Ortin has lost his sensitivity in that area.’
‘What? Hasn’t he recovered?’
‘Yes, but he’s been a eunuch for so long that his sensitivity is gone.’
‘Wow….., That’s sad.’
‘Hey, hey, Cain is looking at us. Let’s run away before we become eunuchs too.’
The guys ran away, avoiding my gaze.
It seems like my warning has worked.
Of course, Ortin has become eunuch-like because of my action.
I don’t care.
As I walked, someone called out to me in a frivolous voice.
“Cain!”
“Huh?”
I turned around to see who was calling me, and it was none other than Jenny.
Damn. I’m screwed.
The problem isn’t that Jenny called me; it’s that Eileen was standing next to her.
Damn. I’ve been avoiding her well, but now I’m screwed.
In fact, I’ve been ignoring her ever since I used her name, and when she tried to talk to me after the duel, I pretended not to hear her and ran away.
I should run away now.
Jenny called out to me, but the two of them are quite far away.
So it’s not too late yet.
I decided what to do without hesitation and activated Physical Enhancement.
The two of them looked a little surprised, but I didn’t have time to pay attention to their reactions and ran as fast as I could without looking back.
“Huh?! Eileen, he’s running away again!”
“….., If he keeps doing this, I’ll have no choice but to force him to talk, even though I didn’t want to.”
Eileen seemed determined and made a stiff expression. She released her aura.
Her aura caused Jenny and the students around her to roll on the ground.
What the? Damn. Is that Physical Enhancement too?
I swallowed my dry saliva as I saw her Physical Enhancement, which was on a different level from mine.
Of course, Eileen and I used different powers, but it’s still Physical Enhancement.
Physical Enhancement is a skill that can be used with any power as a base.
Anyway, there’s no time to think leisurely.
If I’m caught now, I’ll die.
As I ran frantically, I could see the entrance of the Academy in the distance.
If I just get out of there, I’ll be fine!!
Once I’m out of that entrance, there will be a lot of people, and I’ll be able to shake off Eileen somehow.
Of course, I’ll inevitably meet her next week, but that’s the future me’s problem, not mine.
So, future me, good luck!!
As I cheered for the future me in my mind, I was about to step out of the entrance when…
-Whoosh!
….., What? What did I just see?
Until a moment ago, there was only an iron fence in front of me, and no one was there except for the guards.
But as the wind blew, Eileen appeared in front of me with a terrifying smile, crossing her arms.
Is that the wind or Eileen?
….., Is she even a student? She’s a monster.
As I was wondering in surprise, she approached me, determined not to let me go this time.
Damn. What should I do?
I wanted to grab her skirt and apologize, but that wouldn’t make Eileen forgive me.
Come to think of it, it’s strange that Eileen isn’t angry. I rejected her twice, and I even used her.
….., I’m such a piece of trash, aren’t I?
No, it’s not my fault. We agreed to break up, and Ogtein’s proposal was just because he didn’t know anything.
Of course, you could say that I should have been honest.
What if I tell the truth, and Ogtein cancels the duel?
That’s not okay. 1,000 points are so precious.
Yes, so it’s not my fault. It’s Ogtein’s fault for making such a proposal without knowing anything.
Damn you, Ogtein. Why did you make such a proposal?
As I blamed Ogtein in my mind, I thought about how to deal with the current situation.
Before I knew it, Eileen was right in front of me.
She straightened her golden hair and looked at me with her unique blue pupils, the trait of the Eilja family. Then, with a stiff expression, she opened her mouth like a broken machine.
“I, I, I…”
“…..,”
What? Something’s wrong?
To be honest, I thought she would be furious and beat me up.
But she seemed embarrassed and started stuttering.
Anyway, whatever she’s trying to say, one thing is certain: I won’t get beaten up by Eileen.
“Hmm. I’m sorry, but if you don’t have anything to say, I’m leaving.”
“Huh?!”
At my words, she looked at me with a lost expression, as if she had lost something.
What? If you have something important to say, just say it quickly.
I don’t think it’s a good idea to wait like this.
After all,
[The Goddess of Fate senses something strange from that girl.]
The Constellation has started to feel jealous.
Of course, the Constellation won’t go crazy and descend, but… who knows with that girl?
What if I became like Kim Soo-yong who died from sex after killing the final boss summoned by the Cult in the game?
The Constellation hasn’t gone crazy yet, but it’s still not a good idea to provoke her.
As I was about to pass by Eileen and leave the entrance, she whispered to me.
As soon as she finished speaking, the Constellation sent a message.
[The Goddess of Fate threw a cup on the floor!!]

The next day, Eileen swung her sword in the family estate’s training grounds. Each of her concise movements seemed to carry meaning, but despite her graceful swordplay, she furrowed her brows slightly, unsatisfied with her performance.
She couldn’t focus. It wasn’t much different from usual, but instead of concentrating on her movements while swinging her sword, her mind kept drifting back to what had happened yesterday.
‘You, you and me. Let’s date.’
‘Huh?!’
Kaine was visibly shocked by her words, his face a picture of disbelief. Just as he was about to respond, Eileen cut him off.
‘Kaine, you were definitely using me in Ogtin’s proposal, weren’t you?’
Kaine nodded, looking off into the distance, perhaps feeling guilty.
‘Well, I should be punished for that, but…’
‘…’
Eileen watched his reaction secretly, then gathered her courage to say, ‘I’ll forgive you, but please go on a date with me.’
She glanced at his reaction, and he seemed more flustered than she had ever seen him.
‘…Okay. I was wrong, so how about tomorrow?’
‘Yes, I’m free this weekend, so tomorrow is good for me.’
‘Alright, then. I’ll see you later.’
‘Be careful on your way home, Kaine.’
With that, Kaine left the Academy entrance and headed towards his mansion.
Snapping out of her thoughts, Eileen felt her face flush, and a thin white mist escaped from the top of her head.
Lost in her thoughts, she didn’t notice the time until a maid appeared, reminding her of her appointment with Jenny.
“Lady Eileen, it’s time for your appointment with Lady Jenny.”
“I know.”
Eileen assumed her lie had worked and put her wooden sword into her spatial ring. Then, she headed towards the shower to wash off her sweat.
.
.
.
After her shower, Eileen dried her hair with a low-grade wind magic-infused hairdryer, pondering what to wear.
What style does Kaine like? She thought. They had been together for quite some time before their engagement was broken off, but they had never really had a sweet date.
What did we do during our engagement? She tried to recall their time together over the past few years, and realized that aside from following him around and watching him, they had never done anything alone together.
Was this even an engagement, or was it just my one-sided crush? She thought as she looked through her clothes.
Red tracksuit, pajamas, blue tracksuit, school uniform, pink tracksuit, party dress, yellow tracksuit, armor, green tracksuit… I really don’t have many clothes.
She hadn’t realized it before, as she rarely left the Academy, but now, looking at her wardrobe, she realized that aside from the necessary items, everything else was a tracksuit.
What should I do? Should I wear a tracksuit? She imagined herself wearing a tracksuit on their upcoming date.
“…”
She shook her head vigorously. No, that would be too rude to the other person.
Even though she couldn’t imagine what Kaine would wear, she knew he wouldn’t show up in a tracksuit, so she needed to show some effort as well.
Eileen searched through her wardrobe, hoping to find something nice to wear. In the corner, she found a casual white dress that she barely remembered.
Oh, this is the dress Jenny gave me as a gift!
She had put it away in the corner, thinking she would never need it, but now, she was surprised to find that she did. She decided to try it on.
She took off her current clothes and put on the dress. Then, she stood in front of the mirror in her room.
The white dress complemented her family’s distinctive golden hair, but the problem was that her chest was particularly emphasized.
Well, it’s been a year or two since I got it as a gift, so it’s only natural, she thought. It felt a little tight around her chest, but it would be unthinkable to wear something else.
“I’ll wear this, then.”
Having decided on her outfit, Eileen calmed her racing heart and headed towards the meeting place.
