Avoid Yandere Constellation

In the end, the only people left in the classroom were me, Jenny, and Eileen.

In other words, all the other students had already formed their groups.

Sigh, I’m getting dragged into this again.

As I sighed inwardly,

[The goddess of fate is shouting that that woman definitely targeted you!!]

The constellation was shouting at me through the message, and while it’s unlikely that Eileen targeted me, it’s still quite a coincidence.

So, it’s not unreasonable for the constellation to say that.

“Well, it’s just the three of us left.”

“Yes, that’s true.”

As we sat in an awkward silence,

“Why are you two so awkward? It’s been three weeks since your date failed.”

Jenny crossed a line she shouldn’t have.

Hey, you! Why did you say that!

While it’s true that I don’t want to be involved with Eileen, I don’t want to be hostile towards her either.

After all, the incident that happened back then is probably not a good memory for her.

Well, it’s understandable since our date was ruined by a kid and three women who suddenly showed up.

I rolled my eyes at Eileen.

Contrary to my expectations, she had a calm expression.

Hmm, why isn’t she getting angry? Anyway, let’s change the topic.

“Don’t assume things. There’s no one else left, so we have to form a group. Now, let’s decide on the evaluation date.”

“Yes, let’s do that.”

“Okay, let’s decide quickly.”

With that, we started our meeting in the classroom.

.

.

.

Ten minutes into the meeting,

“No, I think we should take the first evaluation.”

“That’s not a good idea. You might end up with a lower score because of your greed. I think it’s safer to take the second evaluation.”

Just ten minutes in, and my opinion clashed with Eileen’s.

“You say it’s safer to take the second evaluation, but do we really need to play it safe with our abilities?”

To be precise, I don’t need to play it safe because I have Eileen with me.

Eileen shook her head and replied,

“I don’t deny that we’re among the top students, but underestimating others can lead to trouble. And I’m sure there will be some very skilled students taking the first evaluation. So, I think it’s best to take the safer and easier second evaluation.”

Damn, this stubborn woman!

But honestly, Eileen’s words make sense.

There’s no reason to compete with skilled students just to get a few extra points.

It’s better to get a higher score in the second evaluation, which is also safer.

However, the problem is not that.

If we were only considering the evaluation, I would agree with Eileen.

But in the second evaluation, the Cult will launch a terrorist attack, which is the main episode.

Kim Soo-yong, a classmate of Eileen’s, and Rain, a heroine from the game, along with a professor and the students taking the second evaluation, will have to stop the Cult’s attack.

In other words, if we take the second evaluation, we’ll be forced to get involved in the main episode.

No way, I’m not going there.

Anyway, it’s not my job; Kim Soo-yong will handle it.

There’s no reason for me to get involved.

The protagonist is the one who usually goes through hardships.

But why is Eileen so insistent on taking the second evaluation?

If I remember correctly, Eileen didn’t appear in the first main episode, which means she took the first evaluation.

I don’t understand why she suddenly changed her mind.

As I was wondering about Eileen’s actions,

“Woah, woah, Eileen, I understand that you’re worried about Kaine, but please calm down a little.”

Jenny made a gesture to calm Eileen down.

“That’s not it!”

Oh, is that it?

Eileen’s face turned red with embarrassment as she vehemently denied it, so Jenny’s words must be true.

Yes, that explains why the original story changed.

It’s true that the first evaluation is significantly more dangerous without any information.

After all, having information or not makes a huge difference.

Although it’s unlikely that anyone will die or get seriously injured since the professors will ensure safety, there’s no such thing as absolute safety.

Eileen might be able to cover for one person, but two would be difficult.

So, there’s no reason for her to take the risk of the first evaluation.

I appreciate her concern, but the problem is that the second evaluation is more dangerous!

Eileen’s personality is not only rigid but also highly competitive.

So, with just one word, I could naturally guide her towards taking the first evaluation.

“Are you scared?”

“Huh?”

At my words, Eileen tilted her head, not understanding what I meant.

“Are you scared? If you’re scared, then drop out.”

“…”

At my provocative tone, Eileen’s body, which was shaking like a PC gamer, froze.

Well, to be precise, I was just being provocative because Eileen had suggested the second evaluation out of concern for me.

“No, I didn’t expect that you, one of the top students in the first year, would suggest taking the second evaluation because it’s safer. Hmm, so you’re scared and want to take the second evaluation. Okay, then. I can’t blame you for being scared.”

As I emphasized the word ‘scared,’ Eileen’s shaking body stopped, and she turned to me with an icy face.

“Yes, Kaine. If you’re so confident, let’s take the first evaluation. But if you get into danger, I won’t help you.”

“…”

Did my provocation go too far?

Honestly, I didn’t expect her to react this coldly, even though I intended to provoke her.

Jenny, who had never seen Eileen like this before, looked a little flustered and whispered in my ear,

“Hey, did you go too far with your provocation? She seems to be extremely upset.”

Well, I didn’t expect her to be this upset either.

Eileen, who was listening to our conversation, turned her head away, looking displeased.

“Hmph!”

She was clearly still upset.

.

.

.

After reporting the evaluation date and group leader to William, we headed to our next lecture.

By the way, Eileen was chosen as the group leader by majority vote.

Usually, the group leader doesn’t do the group project, right?

Anyway, I arrived at the Magic Engineering lecture hall and sat in an empty seat.

As usual, students avoided sitting near me.

Hmm, whatever, I don’t care.

Why bother becoming friends with these young people?

As I was thinking this,

“Yes, hello.”

Lucy, who was wearing a pair of large round glasses that covered half of her face and a white coat that dragged on the floor, entered the lecture hall with an innocent expression.

Hmm, every time I see her, I think she doesn’t look like a professor.

Honestly, I’ve always wondered what it would feel like to see a legal loli in real life, and now that I’ve seen one, it’s just like seeing a child pretending to be an adult.

I think she and Kage would make a great team.

As I was evaluating Lucy as usual,

“Kaine, David von Kaine, are you here?”

She was calling my name.

“Yes, I’m here.”

“Oh, good, you’re here.”

Lucy sighed in relief and began taking attendance again.

After the attendance was taken, each student took out the item they had made or brought.

Of course, I took out the item I had purchased with points.

“Oh! Kaine, this item is amazing!! I saw it last time, too!”

Lucy, who was looking at my magical sniper rifle, had the same reaction as a child who had found a toy.

Yes, it’s an amazing item.

The magical sniper rifle is just as the name suggests, a sniper rifle that shoots magical energy. However, its performance is vastly different from guns on Earth.

Ordinary guns have recoil, bullets, and loud sounds, but my rifle, which I bought with points, shoots magical energy instead of bullets.

Moreover, it has no recoil and makes no loud noises.

The only drawback is that its power varies depending on the amount of magical energy injected, but even so, it’s the perfect item for assassination or finishing off enemies.

For me, who was known as the 2nd Army Sniper, it’s a perfect item.

[The goddess of fate wonders how you created such an ancient item.]

The constellation, as usual, takes an interest in my beautiful and thick item.

Well, of course.

Other people may not know how I got this item, but the constellation saw me buy it with points, so it’s not surprising that she’s curious.

After all, from her perspective, an ancient item appeared out of thin air.

It wouldn’t be strange if she thought that I created the item myself.

Lucy, who can’t see my item, examines the other students’ items fairly, one by one.

“Hmm, everyone has brought good items.”

With a satisfied smile, Lucy climbed back onto the podium and said,

“Usually, I would ask you to interpret and draw blueprints for the items you brought, but as you all know, the first-year evaluation period is coming up soon. So, for now, let’s just interpret the items and finish quickly.”

With that, the Magic Engineering lecture began as usual.

.

.

.

The day of the first evaluation arrived.

I went to the Royal Academy as usual and headed to the meeting spot where I had arranged to meet Eileen and Jenny.

Where are they?

I looked around, searching for them.

“Kaine, over here!”

Jenny spotted me first and called out loudly.

I turned towards her voice and walked over to them.

Jenny greeted me with her usual lively expression, while Eileen,

“You’re here.”

“Yeah.”

“Yes, let’s go to the auditorium.”

Since the provocation, Eileen has been pouting whenever she sees me.

Jenny, seeing this, smiled slyly and whispered to Eileen,

“Eileen, when are you going to stop pretending to be upset? You’ve already forgiven him a long time ago.”

“No, that’s not true!”

“Yes, it is. Anyway, I don’t care if you pretend to be upset, but will you stay like this during the evaluation?”

“…”

Jenny’s words seemed to have some meaning, but I pretended not to hear anything and adjusted the volume back to its original level.

Hmm, I wonder what they were talking about.

I didn’t expect Eileen to still be pretending to be upset.

I thought that the butterfly effect wouldn’t happen, and the story would proceed as in the original.
