Avoid Yandere Constellation

Meanwhile, at that time, Lise and Kage headed to the arena where the grade tournament was taking place to watch Kaine’s match.

As they walked hand in hand, they arrived at their destination without realizing it.

“Hmm. Let’s find a seat…”

“Huh? Lise, there’s an empty seat over there!”

Kage pointed to the empty seat with her hand.

“Well done, junior.”

“Ahem!”

Kage crossed her arms and exhaled.

As the two of them approached the empty seat, Kage tilted her head.

“Yes, it seems so. But…”

Why are they acting like that?

As I looked at the two of them, they were bowing their heads and trembling.

‘Why would they be like this while watching a match?’

Not only their reactions but also the reactions of most of the spectator were suspicious, as they kept glancing at the two of them.

‘Well, that’s not important.’

Lise sat next to Skaya, and Kage climbed onto Lise’s lap.

Skaya, who had just noticed their presence, turned her head away with a red face.

“Huh? When did you get here?”

“We just arrived too.”

“Oh, that’s good.”

“……?”

Good thing?

Lise tilted her head, not understanding.

“Did something happen? Now that I think about it, people seem to be constantly looking at you.”

“Well, it’s…”

Skaya explained what Jenny had done earlier.

Lise nodded in understanding and looked at Eileen.

“So, that’s why Eileen is like that?”

“Yeah… that’s right.”

Eileen was literally trembling and looked like she was about to die of embarrassment.

If Jenny had been there, Eileen would have grabbed her neck and shaken her.

But Lise and Kage didn’t care about Eileen’s situation and mercilessly turned their attention to the arena.

At the same time, Dillon and Kaine appeared in the arena.

“Huh? It’s the master!”

At these words, Eileen immediately raised her head and turned her gaze to Kaine.

Then, with a puzzled look, she tilted his head.

“Something feels strange, doesn’t it?”

“Yeah, it seems like she’s already fought with that Dillon guy.”

“Now that you mention it…”

As the three of them felt puzzled, Kage used a word that didn’t suit him.

“I feel a sense of déjà vu.”

At these words, the other three also nodded and simultaneously thought of Ortein for a moment.

.

.

.

Finally, it was my turn.

I put on the protective suit that William gave me.

Hmm. It’s not uncomfortable at all.

It looked like the armor that 3rd Form Freezer from Dragon Ball wears, but despite its appearance, it was as comfortable as pajamas.

As I put on the suit and faced Dillon, we both took out our weapons from our Space Rings.

So, he mainly uses a spear.

Indeed, it suits him better than a sword, given his somewhat large build.

William looked at us alternately and explained the rules.

“The rules are simple. If your gauge reaches zero, you’re considered defeated. And if you attempt to inflict damage beyond the gauge, I’ll stop you. Any objections?”

“No, sir.”

With that, the match began.

We faced each other with our weapons.

Now, what should I do with this guy?

As I thought this and looked at him, Dillon smiled maliciously and said,

“I don’t know what a magician like you is doing participating in this tournament.”

“Huh?”

Is he confident because he thinks I’m a magician?

Then his behavior makes sense.

In reality, most Academy students have only seen me fight when I fought with Ortein.

After that, they haven’t seen me fight anyone else.

Hmm. Well, it’s not my problem if he’s delusional.

Anyway, he’ll soon regret his overconfidence.

As I was thinking about something else for a moment…

“I won’t give you time to cast spells!”

Dillon said this and charged towards me.

Then he thrust his spear downward.

-Whoosh!

I didn’t use physical enhancement and blocked his spear with my sword.

-Clang!

The tip of his spear clashed with my sword.

Dillon raised one corner of his mouth and used aura to enhance his body.

With his strength, my sword was gradually pushed back.

“Tsk!”

Apparently, even though I’ve grown, it’s impossible to defeat him without physical enhancement.

“Physical Enhancement.”

With the previous elixir, transparent mana flowed through my circuit.

-Whoosh!

As the clear mana was released, it settled into my body.

I applied a little more force to my hand.

“What, what’s going on?!”

Dillon was surprised by my strength.

I swung my sword upward, knocking away the spear that was pressing down on me.

-Ting!

Dillon, pushed back by my strength, broke into a cold sweat and looked at me with a slightly surprised face.

“What did you do?”

“Phew! Yeah, I was wondering when that line would come out. Damn it.”

Usually, when someone’s strength doesn’t work, they assume that the other person is up to something.

The guy in front of me was no different.

It’s no wonder he’s an extra with no name in the game.

Dillon glared at me with a murderous look.

“Hey, listen carefully. It’s not that I did something, it’s just that you’re weak. Don’t rationalize it. You guys always act like you’re something special, putting on all kinds of airs.”

“You bastard…”

“You’re just overreacting to the facts. Look at your eyes bulging.”

I ignored his reaction and continued.

“Well, let’s just fight.”

.

.

.

Meanwhile, Skaya and Eileen, watching Kaine’s match, widened their eyes in surprise at his rippling mana.

“Why is his mana so clear?”

“Not only that, but he’s also using physical enhancement more casually than usual.”

“Now that you mention it… Yeah, he’s not even using mental enhancement. What happened in the past few days?”

It’s no wonder that the two of them are surprised.

Kaine said that Dillon was rationalizing, but even if he hadn’t, the students and William watching the match were also somewhat surprised.

Kage, seeing the reactions of those around him, crossed her arms proudly.

“Ahem!”

However, unfortunately for Kage, no one paid attention to her.

The three of them ignored Kage and focused on the match in front of them.

Eileen narrowed her eyes as she watched Kaine’s movements.

“Kaine’s movements seem strange, don’t they?”

“Yes, definitely. Something’s up…”

“It seems like he’s holding back.”

Everyone nodded in agreement with Skaya’s opinion.

As Skaya said, if Kaine used his full strength, he could finish off Dillon in less than 3 seconds.

But right now, Kaine was toying with Dillon as if he had something in mind.

He was slowly reducing Dillon’s gauge, tormenting him.

Eileen muttered to himself, not realizing it.

“Actually, isn’t Kaine just relieving stress like this?”

“……”

“……”

A moment of silence followed.

After 3 seconds, it was Kage who broke the silence.

“The master, no matter how bad his personality is, wouldn’t participate in a tournament for that purpose.”

“Yeah, that’s true.”

“Right. Would he really torment someone just to relieve stress? He didn’t seem to get along with his opponent earlier, so there must be another reason.”

Everyone except Lise shook their heads in disagreement.

However, unlike the others, Lise had seen Kaine cross-dressing and trembling earlier, so she couldn’t help but think that he was indeed relieving stress.

.

.

.

Dillon panted heavily from Kaine’s attacks.

“Huff! Huff!”

This bastard is deliberately holding back.

At first, I thought his attacks were weaker than they looked, but that wasn’t the case.

He was deliberately reducing his gauge slowly, tormenting me.

‘What should I do? Should I just give up?’

Anyway, no matter how I fight, the probability of defeating Kaine is extremely low.

But if I just take this, I won’t be able to sleep tonight.

‘At least I’ll land one hit.’

As Dillon was thinking this, Kaine stared at his gauge intently.

‘Hmm. Now it’s down to about 10.’

If I attack at this level, the gauge will decrease by about 10.

So, if I succeed in one attack, victory is guaranteed.

‘Then… let’s finish this.’

With that thought, Kaine kicked off.

He swung his sword from top to bottom.

-Whoosh!

“Tukppagi Attack!”

At Kaine’s attack, Dillon, in a desperate attempt, thrust his spear.

If things continue like this, the longer reach of the spear will hit him first.

-Whoosh!

At that moment, Kaine spun his body, avoiding Dillon’s spear.

As Dillon was caught off guard by the sudden movement, Kaine kicked him in the groin.

-Crack!

A cracking sound echoed throughout the arena.

As if they had agreed, a moment of silence followed.

“……”

Dillon clutched his stomach with both hands and drooled.

“Gulp!”

William, sensing something was wrong, approached them.

‘He inflicted damage beyond the gauge… What did he do?’

The two of them seemed to have fought since the waiting room, as they didn’t get along at all.

So, William had been watching them just in case.

Fortunately, Kaine’s last attack wasn’t beyond the gauge.

William glanced at Kaine.

Even he, who didn’t expect this situation, widened his eyes and fidgeted anxiously.

‘There must be a problem with the protective suit.’

With that thought, William called for medical staff.

Priests from the Academy side appeared and carried Dillon away.

William, seeing Dillon being taken away, declared Kaine the winner.

“The winner is David von Kaine.”

-Waaaah!!!

Kaine heard the cheers of the audience and secretly raised one corner of his mouth.

.

.

.

Frac, who had been watching Kaine’s match, left the waiting room for a moment.

He walked down an alley where no one would pass by and cautiously looked around.

Then, he carefully took out a communication crystal ball.

-Have you made contact with Kaine?

“Yes.”

At Frac’s response, a nasty laugh echoed from the crystal ball.

-Khehehe. What’s the probability of a successful assassination?

At this question, Frac smiled and said,

“100%.”

-Do you have any evidence?

“Well, it’s not exactly evidence, but I’ve already shifted the target of suspicion to Dillon, and he’s not even suspicious of me.”

-Hmm. Well, since it’s you, there’s almost no chance of failure. Do you have a plan?

At Jade’s question, Frac answered in a decisive tone.

“Tomorrow, in the final, Jenny and Kaine will fight each other. So, he’ll definitely be tired, and during that time, I’ll perfectly assassinate him without being noticed.”

-Okay. I understand. Since you’re Frac, it’s hard to guarantee that you can assassinate Kaine, but after you do, observe the reaction and be careful. Andrew will give you that much leeway.

“Yes. Then I’ll go back to the waiting room.”

-Okay. Good luck.

With that, Frac ended the communication and put the crystal ball back into his A-Space Ring.

Then, he looked around with a scared expression.

‘Did anyone see me?’

With that thought, he entered the waiting room.

However, contrary to his thoughts, his clone and Origin were watching and eavesdropping on Frac from a distance.

.

.

.

After finishing the grade tournament, I lay down on my bed, feeling tired from using my strength for the first time in a while.

“Ah, by the way, I didn’t expect it to go unnoticed.”

What I said was none other than kicking Dillon in the groin.

In the last attack, I had filled my circuit with mana to its limit for just a moment.

Normally, this should have been immediately detected, but the reason it wasn’t was simple.

It was thanks to the effect quality, right?

Normally, the increased mana should have been detected by William, but fortunately, it wasn’t because I adjusted the effect quality to make it look smaller from the outside.

“Ah~ I’ll be able to sleep well tonight.”

As I lay down on the bed with a satisfied feeling, my clone opened the door and entered.

“Huh? Clone? What’s up?”

“Well, actions speak louder than words. I’m just following your orders.”

“Huh? What do you mean?”

At the clone’s sudden nonsense, I tilted my head for a moment. Then, he took out something familiar from his pocket.

“Trust me, and look at this.”

At his words, I looked at the long object he took out.

As the clone pressed a button on the object.

-Whee! Click!

Light flashed, and countless memories flowed into my head.

The memories started from the day after my date with Origin and continued until the day I died without knowing the reason.

The memories of conversations with my clone also came back.

With my memories fully restored, I raised one corner of my mouth.

“As planned.”
