Avoid Yandere Constellation - Chapter 36

It’s been roughly a week since the duel with Ogtin.

To recount what happened in the meantime, first.

[Goddess of Destiny tells you not to go near women].

Lately, the constellation has taken a turn for the worse.

No. How did she change?

After a duel, when I was in high spirits after winning points, she suddenly confessed to me.

At the time, I just thought, “Oh, she’s doing this again because she wants attention.”1 No, that’s what I wanted to think.

Otherwise, it would be a double-edged sword ending with heaven and hell.

But it wasn’t.

After a week of watching her reactions, I hate to admit it, but the constellation had changed for the worse.

I’d rather not have to worry about this if I could decide when to regress.

The problem is that when I die, I regress to the beginning of the event, just like in the game.

Eventually, if I die by being milked out, I’ll regress long before I die, but by that time, Constellation will have already planned to milk me again.

This means I need to get out of her line of sight to cancel the quest.

… How do I get out of her sight?

Easier said than done. It is literally impossible for a mere mortal to escape the sight of a transcendent.

It’s almost as if you’re being asked not to complete the quest and just get the double death ending.

Therefore, I need to take action before the quest comes up.

So let me think deeply for a moment about the constellation.

[Goddess of Destiny says the girls are looking at you!!!]

She sends me an angry message.

Ominously, I’m worried that the ending I saw in the final episode is going to happen to me, not Kim Soo-yong.

…Damnit. I need to send her to Kim Soo-yong as soon as possible.

I really need to have a serious conversation with the constellation sometime.

***

For the record, it wasn’t just the constellations who changed.

I walk towards the mansion after the academy class.

The surrounding students, especially the boys, avoided my eyes and whispered to each other inaudibly.

It’s obvious what they’re saying, but I turned up the volume just in case.

‘By the way, what happened to Benjamin?’

‘Haven’t you heard, Benjamin, that he’s gone numb?’

‘What? He’s not recovered?’

‘Yeah. But he became a eunuch and losing all his senses.’

‘God, that’s so fucking sad.’

‘Hey. Dude, Kane’s looking at us, we better run, or we’ll become eunuch too’

They scurry away, avoiding my eyes.

As you can see, all the students who were hostile to me no longer openly showed their hostility.

Looks like the warning worked.

Of course, my warning has turned Benjamin into a eunuch.

Not my problem.

As I’m walking along, someone calls out to me in a hushed voice.

“Kane.”

“Huh?”

I turned my head back to see who was calling me, and the voice belonged to none other than Jenny.

Ah. I’m f**ked.

It doesn’t matter if it was Jenny who called me.

The reason I couldn’t help but curse inwardly now was the presence of Eileen next to her.

I’d been avoiding her so well.

In fact, since I had sold her name, from the day of the duel until now, whenever I’ve been approached by Eileen, I’ve naturally run away as if I hadn’t heard her.

Better run now.

It’s true that Jenny called out to me and I looked back, but the distance between the two of them is quite long now.

So it’s not too late.

After deciding what to do, I didn’t hesitate to activate my physical enhancement.

Seeing this, the two of them tilted their heads in confusion.

With no time to see their reactions, I sprinted off at a breakneck pace without looking back.

***

“Huh?! He’s running away again!”

I wasn’t going to force the conversation, but if it keeps happening.

“Then so will I!”

Eileen’s expression changed to one of resolve. Unleashing auras from her entire body.

Her aura knocked the surrounding students to the ground, including Jenny.

What the hell?! Shiva. Are we doing the same physical enhancement?

I swallowed hard after seeing a physical enhancement that was so different from mine!

While Eileen and I used separate techniques, there’s no denying that it’s the same kind of physical enhancement.

Physical enhancement is the foundation of any power in the first place.

Anyway, this is no time for leisurely thinking.

Judging from the look on her face, I might die if I get caught.

As I ran faster like that, the entrance to the academy’s main gate came into view.

I just need to get out of there!

If I can make it out of that gate, I’ll be able to slip past the crowd from Eileen’s chase.

Of course, I’ll inevitably run into her on a weekday next week, but that’s for future me to figure out, not current me.

Therefore, do your best, future me!

Cheering my future self on as I ran to the entrance.

-Boom!

… What the hell? What did I see?

Sure enough, there was nothing but a fence in front of me. I couldn’t see a single person, except for the guard.

But just then, a gust of wind blew past, and there she was, arms crossed, with the most terrifying smile in the world.

No way. That wasn’t the wind, but Eileen?

Is it the same student? She’s just a monster.

Just when I was dumbfounded. She’s now walking towards me like she’s not letting me go.

Damn It. What am I going to do?

In my heart, I want to grab her by the hem of her skirt and tell her I’m sorry, but there’s no way she’ll forgive me.

Thinking about it, isn’t it natural that Eileen should feel angry? She’s been rejected twice and even taken advantage of.

And then she was ignored for a week.

… Does this make me look like such an s**mbag?

No, it’s not. We agreed on doing Dual, and I only accepted Ogtin’s proposal because he doesn’t know anything, and it was just something he said. It’s not my fault.

You might be thinking, ‘Sure, but shouldn’t you just be honest?’

But how could I’ve known there would be a site effect?

Will Ogtin withdraw his duel request because I’m being honest?

No way. And those 1,000 points are priceless.

It is. So it’s not my fault, it’s Ogtin’s fault for not knowing the truth.

Ogtin is a damn son of a b**ch. Of all things, he had to propose something like that and cause commotion.

As I inwardly berated Ogtin and racked my brains for a way to deal with this situation, she stepped in front of me.

She tidied up a bit of her shiny golden hair and looked at me with her blue pupils, characteristic of her family, and then she opened her mouth like a broken machine, her ears reddening.

“Th-that’s the o, uh.”

..tsk.

What is it? Something’s wrong with her?

I honestly thought she was going to go ballistic and beat me up.

But instead, she started stuttering, as if she was embarrassed to say something.

I don’t know what it is… but one thing’s for sure, I’m not getting a whipping by Eileen.

“Uhm. Look, I’m sorry, if you don’t have anything to say, can I just leave?”

“Huh?!”

At the mention of my departure, she gives me a lost look.

If you have something so important to say, say it quickly.

I don’t know whatever it is she’s trying to say, but there’s no point in waiting.

Neither will I.

[Goddess of Destiny says she has a strange feeling about her].

She’s starting to get jealous.

Although it’s unlikely that Constellation will descend because she’s mad… but hey, you never know.

After all, why else would Kim Soo-Yong die in the game after killing the final boss summoned by the Church?

Even though Constellation isn’t that crazy yet, there’s no point in provoking her.

With that, I walked past her and was about to exit the entrance when Eileen said something to herself to motivate herself.

As soon as she had finished speaking, Constellation sent me a message.
