Avoid Yandere Constellation - Chapter 43-1

10 minutes before the perform evacuation was completed.

Skaya was leisurely strolling through the forest separately from her team members, when suddenly –

‘Kieeeek!!’

A low-level demon, a goblin, appeared behind her, brandishing a stone axe that would have been made in the Stone Age. The goblin rushed towards her.

Without even looking at the goblin, Skaya snapped her middle and index fingers.

A magical circle appeared beneath the goblin’s feet, and a spear made of magic power shot out.

‘Kieeeek!!’

The goblin was unable to avoid the attack, and was pierced through the abdomen and thrown back, eventually bleeding out on the ground as it died.

As if she had no interest in the goblin whatsoever, Skaya shielded her eyes from the sun and looked around.

‘No way. Kane guy said he wanted to do the first evaluation with me, but he hasn’t come to see me once!’

Skaya stomped her foot with a slightly annoyed expression.

I shouldn’t have let myself get carried away by the atmosphere at that time!!

…

A few days ago.

Suddenly, Kane spoke to Skaya with a serious face, suggesting that they meet alone, and Skaya waited with a slightly stern expression.

What should I do?

Honestly, there is no special meaning in meeting him alone.

They have trained alone before and have recently been together, so it’s not a big deal.

The only problem is that the place he proposed meeting was behind the main building of the Royal Academy, which is famous for its confessing spot.

It’s obvious that meeting alone in such a place is suspicious.

C-confession!

Uh… Have we been getting too close recently?

Certainly, she has been spending a lot of time together with Kane lately.

Even if they are childhood friends, if they keep sticking together, they may eventually see the other person as the opposite sex and be conscious.

Furthermore, Skaya herself may not recognize Kane as just a childhood friend anymore, but a man, considering that she thinks he may confess to her.

Therefore, it’s not weird to think that he likes her.

Her heart is pounding more than usual.

She has been asked out here before, why is this happening now…

While Skaya was taking a deep breath to calm down for a moment.

“Oh? You’re here first?”

“Kyaaa!”

Suddenly, Kane appeared behind her and she involuntarily let out a feminine scream.

Kane was startled by her scream.

“What, what’s wrong? Why are you screaming like that? Someone might think I’m attacking you.”

“I-it’s because you suddenly appeared behind me!”

“No, I just walked here.”

“Ugh! You almost gave me a heart attack.”

Kane shrugged his shoulders with a relaxed face at Skaya’s words.

“Hey. But, what are you so nervous about?”

“Wh-what! I-I am certainly not!”

“No. You’re even sweating cold sweat on your face.”

To confirm his words, Skaya quickly touched her face with her hand.

“What, what?! I’m really sweating cold sweat?”

“And your face looks so red?”

“It’s, it’s because it’s hot!” Skaya denied Kane’s words and waved her arms.

Kane looked at her and raised his head to the sky.

“…For something like that, the weather is quite cool today, isn’t it?”

“Ah! Anyway, that’s not the important thing! Tell me why you called me so urgently!”

Right. Well, Kane opened his mouth with a troubled expression after listening to Skaya’s words.

Seeing his expression, Skaya swallowed dry saliva.

‘He, he’s really going to confess to me.’

If it’s not for that reason, there’s no reason to speak like that.

What should I do?

Until now, she had only thought of him as a friend, but suddenly being confessed to make her feel awkward.

I have to refuse, right?

Regardless of her own feelings, her childhood friend, Riche, his former fiancée, Eileen, and the saint, Anje, all clearly like him.

It’s not polite to accept his confession with this mixed up heart when these three girls like him.

They seemed to be sincere, too.

After she made up her mind on how to answer, Kane lowered his head to match her and said.

“Skaya. Can you change the evaluation date from second to the first round?”

“Yeah. Okay. I’ll do it…huh?! What did you say?”

“Oh? You said I’d do it, right? Clearly? Okay~”

Kane seems to be enjoying himself with a bright smile on his face, as if he didn’t hear what was said behind his back.

‘What? What did I hear?’

“Just a moment, Kane. What did you just say?”

“Okay, I said.”

“No. What did you say before that?”

“I said If you could change the evaluation date from second to the first round.”

“……”

What is this feeling?

Honestly, changing the performance evaluation from second to first round doesn’t matter. She’s confident in her abilities, whether it’s second or the first round.

But why am I so irritated?

It’s clear that she should be relieved that he hasn’t confessed to her, but for some reason, she feels her blood boiling in her head.

No, it must be a mistake. I wouldn’t get so angry about something like this.

Skaya asked Kane, who looked satisfied, denying reality, “Kane, but I’m curious. Why did you specifically want to speak with me here?”

“That? That’s because this place is famous for not having people passing by. That’s why I said that. Besides, it wouldn’t be good to make this request in front of people.”

“Yeah…you’re right.”

His words were correct. If he made that statement in front of students, it would create unnecessary rumors and attract attention from professors.

“Okay, I got it. I’ll do as you said. The team members also said they don’t care when we do it. But…you deserve a punch!!”

“Why?!”

With her face turning red, Skaya hit Kane’s back with all her might, leaving a handprint on his back without knowing why.
