Avoid Yandere Constellation

Chapter 27

Chapter 27

Ill take a lecture on magecraft.

Thats about as good as it gets, I think. Now, I dont know if I have a talent for magic or not.

But in magecraft, at least compared to other people, I have an overwhelming advantage.

Thats because I have a cash shop.

Items in the Cash Shop are usually hard to come by.

No, its better if theyre just hard to find.

In fact, some of the items in the Cash Shop arent even available right now.

But what if I learnt magic and mass-produced them?

Even if Im weak, I can still deal with anything unexpected.

Of course, trying to mass-produce such a thing would naturally cost a fortune.

Well, thats not my concern.

Im so loaded with money right now that most nobles would be surprised.

Therefore, even if youre not talented in some way, you can still make up for it by studying financial and cash items.

This word is totally for me.

Hearing my words, William nods in understanding.

So youre signing up for Magic, P.E., and Magecraft?

Yes.

Hmmm Okay. I understand. Goodbye.

With those words, I walked out of the lab and towards the manor.

***

Arriving at the mansion, I walked into my room and took off the discomforting school uniform I was wearing.

Its something Ive felt for years, but school uniforms are so uncomfortable.

I was nostalgic for the days when I used to wear a school uniform when I was older, before I was possessed, but now that Im wearing it again, I feel terribly uncomfortable.

I put all my school uniforms in the subspace ring and changed into comfortable tracksuits.

Once I was fully dressed, Kersey burst open my door without knocking.

Restore my master!

Her clothes are dusty and her face is swollen from the beating she took from Riche, like a soldier practising shortstop on a rainy day.

Judging by the twinkle in her eye, I can tell shes been waiting for my arrival with bated breath.

Sorry, I already used that.

Uhuh?!

Hearing my words, Kersey gives me a shocked look, her lips quivering. Then she asks me to confirm her shock.

MasterMaster? Did I hear you wrong?

No. Not at all. Im sorry again, but Ive already used that one, and youd better think Im out for the day.

Like a prisoner about to be sentenced to death, she kneels with a world-weary look on her face and braces her hands on the floor.

One would think shed lost her soul.

-KNOCK.

Master, its Riche. May I come in?

Yes. Come in.

As soon as I finish speaking, Riche opens the door and walks in.

She looks around with a rather stern expression.

Hmmm is she looking for the Kersey?

Riche. Are you looking for something?

Uh. Im looking for your clothes to wash them.

If thats the case, why dont you just say it instead?

After hearing her words, I took out the school uniform I wore today from my subspace ring.

Riches face lit up like a child receiving a gift.

What is it? What is she so happy about?

I had an ominous feeling in my stomach, but I didnt think it would do any good to probe further, so I ignored it.

I handed her the school uniform I wore today. She took the clothes in a hearty gulp, then sniffed the uniform for a moment and furrowed her brow.

What is it? Does it smell like sweat? No, it cant be?

Today is the opening day of school, of course, so theres no lecture. William said a few words and was done.

The only time I moved was to the hospital for Kim Soo-yong, to the auditorium for the opening ceremony, and to Williams lab.

I stood there, uncomfortably for a moment. Riche looks at me with a stern expression.

Master, I smell the scent of a woman, but its also a very familiar scent.

Eh, huh?

Maybe. Were you with your ex-fiance?

How on earth can you tell by smell? Is it an assassin skill?

Our assassins go through all sorts of training. So it doesnt hurt to have a heightened sense of smell.

But, even so, it is. I only sat next to her for a moment, and she noticed?

Riches eyes smiled, but her mouth remained expressionless, and I realized that if I didnt explain, it would be me who would die, not Kersey.

So, sentence by sentence, I explained the events at the academy to her.

Riche listened to my explanation and nodded in understanding.

I see, then it cant be helped. By the way, Master, have you seen the junior?

Huh? Im pretty sure shes here???

I was about to point my finger at the Kersey?

She had already disappeared from the room without a trace.

When did this brat run away?

Until Riche came in, she was looking desperate with a lost look on her face, but she had already run away.

Gone.

Hmph I see, then Ill leave now.

Okay.

With those words, Riche smiled sweetly and left the room.

***

Riche hugged Kanes uniform tightly in her arms as she lay down on the bed.

Its like being held by the Master.

The uniform smells very slightly of Eileen, but it doesnt matter. The scent of Kane almost covers her.

As Riche hugs the school uniform and basks in her bliss, an idea suddenly strikes her like a thunderclap overhead.

From her subspace ring, she pulled out the dummy she had obtained from Birgs capture before. She hugged it for a moment.

But its dead, so it doesnt feel warm.

Riche speaks with some regret.

Somethings missing.

At first, she was satisfied with just the dummy. But the greed of humans knows no bounds. And after receiving a petting on the head from Kane, she feels that the dummy is not enough.

But.

!.

Knowing that if she went any further, she might literally cross the line, Riche pressed down on her subconscious desire.

This is not the time.

To quickly realize the thought that had just occurred to her, Riche stripped off all the sleeping clothes the clone was wearing.

Unlike the current Kane, Its body was skinny rather than muscular.

Ditto. The face is the same, but the body is different.

I havent seen Kanes body in person yet, but I can tell how much its improved, even with his clothes on.

I feel it all over again. The difference between his clone and Kane.

With that thought in mind, she dressed her clone in the school uniform Kane had given her.

It was no surprise that it looked exactly like Kane himself, who had attended the Academy in the first term.

Seeing this, Riche smiled with satisfaction and nodded. At the same time, she hugged him.

But why do I feel sad?

Something is wrong. Not only was there still some warmth from Kanes school uniform, but there was also a distinct scent of his body odor.

Its almost as if shes cuddling up to Kane in the first term.

But.

Its a little disappointing. Of course, Id be lying if I said I didnt like it, but I still feel like something is missing, like 2%.

Its so different from her current master

Even though its obviously the same Kane, it feels weird.

Is it because its just a clone?

Then it makes sense. A clone is a clone, no matter how warm the school uniform and Kanes body odor are.

Moreover, Kanes body is different from his current body.

Its not unreasonable to feel a sense of discomfort.

With that, Riche nodded and hugged her clone, convinced that what she had just thought was correct.

The next morning.

I swear I feel it every time, but I cant be bothered to go to school.

I dont know about the other students, but as someone whos already been to school to death on Earth, it doesnt matter if its the Otherworld Academy, its just as annoying.

As I walked along, grumbling to myself, I finally arrived at the academy. I showed my student ID card and walked in, and as expected, there were people and stare at me.

Ive been getting these stares every day for so long that Im starting to get angry at the absurdity of it all. I glare back at them with sharp eyes.

They avoid my eyes and look at the mountains in the distance.

Thats right. Id rather be thought of as crazy than ignored.

By the way, was it PE?

As I recall, the first lesson in PE was a long run to test the students fitness.

It was the hardest thing Ive ever done in my life.

If anything else, I did physical training every single day, even using doping. But I can definitely feel that Im better than I was before.

Of course, I dont feel like Ive gained much compared to Kersey, but comparing myself (With no talent body) to her is ridiculous in the first place.

Hmph I wont be last, by the way, right?

The physical education lectures are basically applied by students who are aiming to become a knight, but there are also quite a few people who apply for the purpose of dieting.

Therefore, I feel like I wont come in last even though I might be in the bottom, because Ive been training for a month.

Arriving at the lecture hall, I opened the door.

Hmph Im number one.

[Goddess of Destiny congratulates me on being first].

I dont feel like being congratulated!

Apparently, this is the first time Ive won first place since Ive been possessed by Kane, but I feel like Ive been mocked by the goddess.

I casually raise my middle finger to the sky and take a seat in the very back.

Not long after I took my seat, the students started to come in slowly.

They couldnt believe I was the first to arrive, so they closed the classroom door again.

Hey. Are you sure were in the right place?

Crazy! What in the world did he do to be first instead of being a regular student?

I hear you, you sickos!

But it would get messy if I responded, so I just listened to them out of one ear and let it go out of the other.

With that, they opened the door again with confused faces, and huffed and puffed and took seats as far away from me as possible.

Surely there wont be another similar reaction?

I thought it was a ploy for a moment, but then I realized that it was a game world, so all the students who came afterwards had similar reactions to the guys.

Of course, Jenny and Eileen had the same reaction.

While I was thinking to myself. When it was completely time for the lecture, someone opened the door at the front.

All eyes turned to Professor Byrne, who walked in from the front door.

He raises and lowers his sword like its a dumbbell in a gym.

No. Is that what that thing is usually used for?

Im sure Im not the only one who thinks that, as the students all look on in disbelief.

Byrne scans every student in the room, including me, with an athletic eye. Then, with one corner of his mouth raised, he says

Okay, then, because were going to have a fitness test today. Everyone change into your gym uniforms and assemble in the exercise room.

As expected, the first lecture was a fitness test.
