Avoid Yandere Constellation

Chapter 3

Chapter 3

What a timing, a way to get points.

Then what are you doing. After all, I cant get it now.

Even if that quest gives me points, its impossible to get them right away.

Tsk! I have to follow the original plan after all. I hope it will turn out OK.

In fact, its almost a gamble.

I hope, no unforeseen circumstances messes up.

With that in mind, I moved all the stuff around me into a corner.

The room is now completely spacious .

Bang! The woman who had died for me earlier opened the door. She hurried to me and spoke with the same tearful voice as before .

Master Kane. The intruder has almost broken through the trap in the hideout.

She doesnt seem to remember that shes dead, does she?

Good. I was worried that the others would remember too, but it seems not.

- Im sorry, before we get out, whats your name?

M-my name is Meilin. Master Kane.

To my question she stiffened and stammered in response.

What the hell? Why would she react like that?

The Kane I know is certainly not a man who remembers the names of his subordinates or those beneath him.

Maybe he can remember his personal maid and servants, but theres no way he could know the name of at least one of his dubious ones.

Or is it because I said I was sorry?

Then I am both convinced and dismayed at the same time.

Kane, how much of a ruffian were you?

It seems that youre not really a third-rate extras villain for no good reason, to get a world-shattering reaction from a single word of sorry at most.

Frankly, I didnt have a great personality either, but compared to Kane I felt like an angel.

But why is she risking her life to save mine?

Most people would abandon others to survive by themselves, but she even sacrificed her own life to somehow save me.

Well, this is not the time for this anyway. My priority is to survive for now.

Then, Meilin, listen to me carefully.

Yes.

She pricked up her ears at my cautious voice. I looked around.

Ok, I think its around here.

If you roll backwards from where Im standing now here, youll find a special space. Well hide there until the intruder leaves.

Meilin looks at me with a very sorry look on her face.

I know!!! I know its weird too! But still, by all means!!! Do you have to look at me like that?

Frankly speaking, most people, including me, didnt believe it at the time when we discovered this bug in the game as well.

But eventually, the person who found the bug made it public, proving that it really was there.

I believe the game makers have not fixed it.

Meilin, try it once from yourself.

Uh yes.

She looks stunned at the idea of suddenly doing a backward roll in such an urgent situation, but does not express her unwillingness to do so explicitly, even though she hid her face. She kneels down so that her bottom touches the floor.

I stare at her like that.

Hmm why does she obey my commands so perfectly?

I was somewhat curious and Tsk unintentionally clicked my tongue.

?! I-Ill do it right away.

Meilin, who misunderstood the sound of my tongue clicking, was startled. Without hesitation, she rolls backwards .

. A full circle, two laps, three laps

The room is not as big as I thought it would be, so rolling again, she reaches the wall.

Please. Please. I honestly cant see the answer if not this.

Meilin squeezes both eyes shut, thinking that she is sure to hit the wall.

Circling backwards. Its done!!!

The bug has not been fixed. The makers left it as it was.

BANG-BANG!!!

The sound of a trap being crushed could be heard from outside. I can feel Kim Soo Yeon coming towards us.

Damn It. Now is not the time for this. Lets hurry up and do a rollback, too.

I also hurriedly stepped to the center of the room.

I rolled backwards in the same position as Meilin.

One round, Two laps, Three laps, The last four laps.

-Soooooo!

I felt something pass through my body. At the same time, I looked around.

The surrounding background is all white. The room was empty except for Meilin.

I shifted my gaze to Meilin. She looks incredulous and astonished.

How do you like it, Girl! You would be dead if it wasnt for me!!!!

I really wanted to say this, but it felt too disgusting to say this to the woman who tried to save me.

BANG. Wow, you startled me.

From the sound of the noise, it sounds like Kim Soo Yeon smashed down the door to our room. We couldnt be found, but we held still just in case.

If we had been a little later, I would have had a hole in my stomach again.

I know you are hiding here. If you come out now, I wont kill you.

?!!!

Kim Soo Youngs words startled Meilin.

Meilin: Dont be intimated.

This is a bug space. It doesnt matter, even if youre a Hero, tracking this place down is not possible.

In the first place, not even the constellation called God can find it.

But unlike me, Meilins pupils shook like an earthquake.

Dont worry. That guy is bluffing. If he knew where we are in the first place, he would have came here from the beginning.

Ah, yes!

She stopped trying to leave at my words and nodded.

Meanwhile, at that time.

Kim Soo Yeon broke through the wall into the room.

BANG!!!

Huh where the hell did these guys run off to?

Its strange no matter how you look at it. At first, I thought they had escaped to the passageway leaving the room and used the presence detection.

However, nothing was detected in the passageway leading out. Certainly the escaping womans ability to dodge or block her own presence detection was not strong enough.

What in the world is going on?

Or is it the power of the guild leader here?

Then it makes sense. The problem is that thats the only part that makes sense, though.

If he had that kind of power, it would be strange for him to escape in the first place.

If he has the power to block his own presence detection, or the ability to avoid, then that means he is somewhat powerful.

If you join up with that woman, frankly, there is no guarantee that I will win.

The conclusion I draw is that the odds of escaping down the passageway are low.

What do you think Goddess?

He is told that the goddesses who see fate dont understand the current situation.

Even the transcendent, the constellation, is now perplexed by the situation.

For now, lets wait and see, pretending to be leaving.

***

Tap-Tap-Tap-Tap!.

The sound of footsteps gradually diminished. Soon the very presence of people disappeared from the room.

Meilin breathed a sigh of relief that I was not the only one who felt that way.

Master Kane. It seems that the intruder has left the room. Ill go out first, just to be sure.

Wait a minute.

I blocked Meilins attempt to go out first with my hand.

Something is not right.

There is no sign of anything in the room, and under the circumstances, it is not surprising if he leaves.

It feels very uncomfortable, even though he certainly should have been.

Come to think of it the quest completion message didnt appear.

Normally, the message Quest Completed should appear from the moment Kim Soo Yeon leaves the building.

Of course, reality and games are different, so there is no guarantee that it will appear unconditionally. but if death is avoided, it shouldnt be surprising if the quest completion message appears automatically in front of you.

In the first place, the system message appeared automatically even before I died.

This bastard, I think, definitely didnt leave at all. Ill have to check it out.

Somewhat frustrated, I turned on the status window.

David von Kane.

Age: 20 years old.

Characteristics: Game Setting Ability , Death Regression.

Talents: none.

Points:0.

Without hesitation, I chose the game setting ability.

Game setting abilities: volume adjustment, effect quality adjustment, color settings, map display, inventory, cash shop

Hmm. Map view should do.

Cash shop is available but useless due to lack of points. That said, the other abilities didnt look any Better than the map under the current circumstances.

Lets opt to look at the map.

[Player David von Kane can only use the volume control. 5,000 points are consumed to open the map view].

Sh*t. This is so terrible.

No, is it natural in a way? If you can use virtually all of the abilities available, its nothing short of a scam.

Yes, it is. Theres a price to pay for this sort of thing originally. I was wrong to expect it.

In the end, I looked at the volume control with disappointment.

Still, its fortunate out of misfortune.

If it had been anything else, it would have been impossible to see if Kim Soo Yeon was still in the room.

Still, it is an ability to adjust the sound, so even if you hide your presence, you can still find it quickly.

I selected the volume control and slowly increased the size so as not to strain my ears.

55-65-75-8595-100.

Its crazy.

?

Meilin, who was next to me, tilted her head at my sudden snide remark.

Wow. I have goosebumps.

As soon as I maxed out the volume, I could clearly feel the presence of people in the room.

When I turned it up to 90, at first it was still faint and I thought I had misheard it, but that was not the case.

As I raised it to 100, I could definitely hear his breathing in the room.

No, not just the sound of his breath, but the sound of his eyes moving, and even the sound of him swallowing his spit, all of it could be heard in detail.

I see you bastard, and you were waiting for him, pretending to leave.

Its a stalker level performance.

Its time to turn the volume back down because my ears are hurting.

Looks like that guy hasnt left yet. Lets wait for now.

Understood. Master Kane.

Right. Lets see who wins.

Hours passed since then. This bug space is infinitely large, but we could get lost if we moved elsewhere for no reason, so Meilin and I just sat still.

Woah You havent left yet. You are a real starker pervert.

Even in the game, some of my friends tell me hes a pervert. I clicked my tongue at his presence .

Because hes a pervert like that, hell die as blessed saint in the Yandere constellation at the end.

Seeing Kim Soo Yeon behaving like that, the games ending is self-evident.

The producers, you made a perfect ending for this guy.

While I was praising the producers in my mind.

[Quest Avoiding Death completed].

[You will receive 500 points as a reward.]

It looks like youve finally left. Phew it was a strong enemy. Really.

Although I would have normally been set in stone to see what cash items I could buy with 500 points. but I wanted to get out of this space as soon as possible after being forced to sit and do nothing for a while.

As I got up from my seat, Meilin tilted her head .

Master Kane?

Lets get out. There isnt any intruder in the room

Ill go first.

I nodded without hesitation.

Yes, I know. I know its been hard for you. Go ahead and leave.

I didnt send her ahead just in case Kim Soo Yeon was in the room.

I did it out of consideration for her.

Yeah, thats right. Meilin gets up and exits the bug space .

Master Kane, you can come out. Theres no one here.

Okay.

I followed Meilin out.

I knew I would win!

As I danced and rejoiced in my heart.

DING!

[The goddess who sees fate is astonished to see you alive!]

.

No, why are you here, noona?

Anyone still there?
