Avoid Yandere Constellation - Chapter 48-2

Anyway, I turned my body around and started walking towards the request board, thinking that this wasn’t the time for that.

“Stop right there.”

A fierce-looking adventurer called out to us with a full of life voice.

Damn it. Is this really going to be such a predictable development?

But you never know.

With that in mind, I turned my head back.

“Why? Do you have some business with us?”

“What? Why? Don’t you remember me? Hey, you!”

I would like to answer your question right away, but…

I see a fierce-looking man in front of me.

From his reaction, it’s clear that Kane must have done something pointless in the first semester.

So, I just stayed quiet without saying anything in response to his question. Then, Riche whispered to me so that only I could hear.

“He’s an adventurer hired by Young Master anonymously four months ago.”

Ah, I see. Four months ago. Then, Kane must have done something for sure.

While I was coming to terms with this, the guy in front of me furrowed his eyebrows as if he thought we were ignoring them.

“Hey…be a little more…respectful.” – Riche

“You’re being too sensitive for something that happened four months ago.”

“What?”

The guy glared at me with a livid look in his eyes.

As I ignored his reaction, he continued speaking.

“Are you deaf? I said it happened four months ago, you’re making a big deal out of nothing.”

No, seriously, why do I have to suffer from this when I didn’t do anything wrong?

Also, I don’t know what kind of business Kane had with him four months ago, but he doesn’t even look like a normal adventurer.

I’m sure that guy definitely did something like a secret crime, it’s obvious, just by looking at him.

These days, it’s common for adventurers to do such things. His appearance speaks for everything.

And judging from Kane’s record, it’s unlikely that he would hire a normal adventurer.

When I look at him as if he is pitiful, he seems to have forgotten that I’m a noble, and just like in the cliches from a mass-produced light novel. He eventually attacked me.

Ugh. Damn. This is how it ends up.

I looked at Riche with a gaze that said to handle it, and she nodded and turned to Kersey.

As if being pushed down a slope, Kersey reluctantly nodded under Riche’s pressure to follow orders.

The adventurer with the appearance of a middle school student and the criminal facing her, had a showdown.

If someone who didn’t know saw it, they would probably worry about the former, but the reality was different.

Kersey rushed forward, following command, closing distance in one go, and punched the fierce adventurer in the jaw with her cute little palm.

“Ackk!”

The guy fainted immediately as his eyes rolled back and his body flew back before falling down.

Two mean-looking men, who were together with him trembled as they realized that Kersey wasn’t just an ordinary kid and hesitated.

Well, this should be enough.

In my heart, I wanted to kill all three, but there were too many people around, and causing a real problem was a hassle.

Besides, there’s no guarantee it would end with that in the first place.

“Hey, you two. Get lost with that b**tard.”

“”Yes, sir!””

The duo responded in a military salute like newbie privates, then grabbed the fallen guy and ran away frantically.

Of course, it didn’t matter since the building was still the same one-story building.

I glanced around for a moment.

The adventurers who had been watching us around us naturally began to focus on their own tasks, intimidated by Kersey’s skill.

Looks like no one else will come to fight us.

Kersey really proved herself this time.

“How was it, master? Did I do well?”

“Yeah. By the way, haven’t you really have become a lot stronger?”

At my compliment, Kersey snorted and blew air out of her nose.

She’s trying to act cool now that I’ve complimented her. But honestly, the compliment wasn’t an exaggeration.

I knew she had gotten stronger, but I wasn’t sure how much, since I’d been busy with the academy.

Honestly, I never thought she would become this strong.

Even though she wasn’t really trying her best against the adventurer, she moved faster than most academy knights and her attacks were solid.

I feel like I made the right choice in taking Kersey again.

As I admired Kersey’s growth inwardly, Riche smiled as if proud of herself.

“Riche. Your expression is too revealing, you know?”

“*Cough* It’s a misunderstanding, Young Master.”

Riche faked a cough as she blushed, and then regained her composure.

How fast she did manage her expression, as expected of a professional assassin.

Anyway, let’s go to the request board quickly.

I carefully examined each paper posted on the board.

Hmm, it must be here somewhere. That dungeon.

As I searched each paper, I found a request with a portrait drawn on it.

Although the face in the picture was still quite young, it looked familiar.

Huh? Isn’t this Riche?

As I was dumfounded looking at the portrait, while searching request.

“Master, isn’t this Riche?”

Kersey looked up at me and asked.

Upon hearing her question, Riche raised her head with a face with an expression that she had never shown before.

“No. It’s not.”

With her cold response, Kersey realized that the atmosphere was not good and did not say anything.

Hmm, her reaction seems related, but it’s too young to be Riche in the picture.

Yeah, it’s a bit of a stretch to say that’s Riche.

“……”

“……”

For a moment, there was an awkward silence between us.

… Alright, let’s not dig any deeper into it.

Although I was curious, it seemed best to just let it go based on her reaction.

Anyway, that wasn’t our original purpose, was it?

I shifted my gaze to another request form.

Soon enough, I found the request I was looking for in the far corner.

Okay, found it.

I tore off the request form and approached the receptionist with my temporary adventurer ID and the request form.

The receptionist wrote something on the ID and handed it back to me with the request form in a professional tone.

“Yes, it’s been received.”

“Thank you. Have a good day.”

With that, I hung the request form where the adventurers who had just picked a fight with me could clearly see it.

Ashard, you must be lonely. Wait for the arrival of your friends. I’ll be sure to send them to the company you.
