Avoid Yandere Constellation

A few days later, as William finished his lecture on field experience learning, I stood up from my seat.

As I was about to leave the classroom,

“Kaine, can you be in the same group as me?”

Eileeen approached me with a flushed face, looking determined.

But unfortunately,

“Hmm. Sorry, but I’ve decided to do it alone this time.”

“Oh… I see. Okay, I understand…”

At my response, Eileeen bowed her head, looking dejected.

Why are you so disappointed about that?

As I was about to exit the Academy entrance,

“Kaine!”

“Huh?”

I turned around at the familiar voice and saw Skaya running towards me with a bright smile.

She put her arm around my neck, and her majestic chest touched my side.

Hmm. It’s soft. I wonder if it’s…

As I silently admired the soft sensation,

“Hey, you don’t have any friends to be in a group with, right? I, your big sister, will specially be in a group with you.”

She suggested that we be in a group together, her face turning red like a beet.

“Sorry, but I’ll be doing it alone this time.”

“Oh… I see.”

At my firm response, Skaya also looked disappointed, just like Eileeen.

Hmm. I expected Eileeen’s reaction, but why is Skaya acting like this?

Could it be… that she doesn’t have any friends to be in a group with?

Now that I think about it, I’ve never seen her hanging out with anyone.

During the performance evaluation, I assumed she just picked anyone.

Now I’m sure.

She’s also an outcast, just like me…

That’s probably why she’s Kaine’s childhood friend.

Feeling a sense of camaraderie, I patted her on the shoulder.

Skaya tilted her head, looking at me with a questioning gaze.

“What’s up with that pitying look?”

“It’s nothing. It’s normal.”

“Hmm… What’s this strange feeling?”

“It’s just a misunderstanding. Anyway, Skaya, if you don’t have anyone to be in a group with, why don’t you be in a group with Eileeen? She’s also looking for a partner.”

The two of them became somewhat close after the performance evaluation incident, so being in the same group wouldn’t be awkward.

As I finished speaking, Skaya narrowed her eyes and looked at me.

“You’re misunderstanding something, aren’t you?”

“No, I’m not.”

“Yes, you are. You’re definitely misunderstanding something.”

“It’s not a misunderstanding. Anyway, I’ll be going now.”

With that, I left, ignoring Skaya’s sulking face, and headed towards the mansion.

.

.

.

As soon as I arrived at the mansion, I called for Kage and Lise. I explained to them about the field experience learning.

“So, you’ve chosen us, young master?”

“Hmm… Is that how it works?”

“Yes, it is.”

At my question, Lise nodded with a proud expression.

Well, I did reject Eileeen and Skaya’s invitations, and I’m going with these two, so her statement isn’t entirely wrong.

“Master, have you decided where we’re going?”

Kage asked with curious eyes.

At her question, I nodded and replied,

“Yes, we’re going to the Adventurer’s Guild. That’s where we’re headed.”

.

.

.

The next day, we headed to the Adventurer’s Guild in the royal capital.

Since it wasn’t far from the David family mansion, we arrived at our destination quickly.

Hmm. The Adventurer’s Guild in the royal capital is on a different level.

I thought the guild in the David territory was quite large, but that thought disappeared as I looked at the building in front of me.

However, why does it feel more like an association building from a web novel than an Adventurer’s Guild?

Although it’s undeniable that the building exudes an intimidating aura, being a high-rise building makes it not feel like an Adventurer’s Guild at all.

Well, it’s the most efficient use of space, but…

It feels strange for some reason.

I didn’t feel it much when I saw it in the game, but now it’s different.

Anyway, standing here isn’t going to accomplish anything, so we entered the building.

“Wow, master! There are so many flashy people here!”

“Yes, I know. Please be quiet. It’s embarrassing.”

Kage looked around at the adventurers with bright eyes.

Damn, I’m the one who’s embarrassed.

For some reason, I felt my face getting hot.

Lise also seemed to be blushing, just like me.

… But it’s understandable that she’s acting like this.

Kage was attacked by the cult and lived in a slum.

And for almost a year, she trained with Lise to become stronger, only leaving the mansion occasionally to go to a cafe or for a weekend outing.

It’s not an exaggeration to say that she spent most of her time in the mansion.

Thinking about her past, I felt a pang of sympathy, but I still didn’t like being embarrassed, so I gave myself a smack on the head.

-Smack!

“Ow!”

Kage let out a strange scream and rubbed her head, tears welling up in her eyes.

“Behave yourself. Let’s go. Everyone’s staring at us.”

“Ugh… Okay, master.”

With that, we headed towards the reception desk.

The receptionist, exuding a business-like aura, smiled mechanically.

“What brings you here, sir?”

“Oh, we’re here for the Royal Academy’s field experience learning.”

“Ah! May I ask your name?”

“David von Kaine.”

As I confidently stated my name, the employee in front of me and the adventurers around us turned to look at us.

Huh? What’s going on? Damn, I hope it’s not that obvious cliché.

For some reason, it feels like trouble is brewing.

Sigh. Let’s get out of here quickly.

“Can you issue a temporary adventurer’s certificate right now?”

“Ah, yes, that’s possible. It costs 2 silver, is that okay?”

“Yes, I’ll pay it right now.”

I took out 2 silver from my dimensional ring and handed it to the employee.

The employee took the 2 silver I gave her, wrote something down, and then handed it to me.

“Here you go. I’ve set the period until the end of the field experience learning. Once you complete a quest perfectly, the Adventurer’s Guild will contact the Academy separately.”

“Yes, I understand. Thank you.”

At my words, the employee looked a little surprised.

It’s been a while since I’ve seen that expression.

Anyway, I thought it was time to move on, so I turned around to head towards the quest board.

“Stop right there.”

A fierce-looking adventurer called out to us with a murderous voice.

Damn, is this really going to be that obvious cliché?

But who knows, maybe it’s something else.

I turned around, just in case.

“What? Do you have any business with us?”

“Huh? What? Don’t you remember? Hey, do you remember me?”

“……”

I wanted to answer his question, but I had never seen the fierce-looking man in front of me before.

Kaine must have done something unnecessary in the first semester.

As I remained silent, Lise whispered to me so that only I could hear.

“He’s an adventurer that the young master secretly hired four months ago.”

Oh, that’s right. Four months ago. So, Kaine must have done something.

As I realized this, the man in front of us scowled, thinking that we were ignoring him.

“Behave yourselves…”

“You’re being so petty about something that happened four months ago.”

“Huh?”

At my words, the man narrowed his eyes with a murderous gaze.

I ignored his reaction and continued,

“Are you deaf? You’re being so petty about something that happened four months ago.”

Damn, to be honest, I didn’t do anything, so why do I have to deal with this?

And I don’t know what Kaine did to him four months ago, but just by looking at his face, it’s clear that he’s not a normal adventurer.

I can guarantee that he’s been involved in criminal activities. Most adventurers who do such things have a certain look about them.

And considering Kaine’s track record, it’s unlikely that he would have hired a normal adventurer.

I looked at him with disdain, but he seemed to have forgotten that I was a noble and charged at me like a cliché from a mass-produced light novel.

Damn it. It’s happening just as I expected.

I looked at Lise with a ‘deal with him’ gaze, and she nodded, then looked at Kage.

Kage, feeling pressured by Lise’s silent command, reluctantly nodded her head.

A middle school-aged girl facing off against three adventurers with criminal-like appearances.

To an outsider, it might seem like the girl needed help, but the reality was different.

Kage took a step forward, closing the distance in an instant, and delivered a cute uppercut to the fierce-looking adventurer’s chin.

-Smack!

“Cough!”

The man’s eyes rolled back as he fell unconscious.

The other two adventurers with sinister expressions hesitated, realizing that Kage wasn’t an ordinary child.

Well, this should be enough.

To be honest, I wanted to kill all three of them, but there were too many people around, and causing any more trouble might lead to real problems.

There’s no guarantee that I could even do it.

“Hey, you two. Take that guy and get lost.”

“Yes, sir!”

At my words, the two of them responded like new recruits, then hurriedly took the unconscious man and ran away.

Of course, they were still in the same building.

I rolled my eyes and looked around.

The adventurers who had been watching us were now intimidated by Kage’s strength and returned to their own business.

No more troublemakers would come out.

Indeed, Kage had finally proven her worth.

“Master, how was that? Wasn’t it good?”

“Yes, you’ve become much stronger.”

At my praise, Kage cleared her throat and puffed out her chest.

She was so happy to receive praise.

Well, to be honest, my praise wasn’t an exaggeration.

I knew she had become stronger, but I wasn’t sure how much she had grown while we were at the Academy.

Honestly, I never expected her to become this strong.

Even though she didn’t use her full strength against the adventurer, she was faster than most Academy knight aspirants.

Once again, I felt glad that I had invited Kage to join us.

As I admired Kage’s growth in my mind, Lise smiled proudly as if she was proud of herself.

“Lise, your expression is too obvious.”

“Ahem. It’s a misunderstanding, young master.”

At my question, Lise coughed and blushed, then returned to her serious expression.

Her expression management was impressive, as expected of a professional assassin.

Anyway, this wasn’t the time for that. Let’s go to the quest board quickly.

I carefully examined each piece of paper on the quest board.

Hmm. It should be here somewhere. That dungeon.

As I looked through them one by one, I found a quest with a portrait.

The person in the portrait looked young but was somehow very familiar.

Huh? Isn’t this Lise?

As I looked at the quest,

“Master, isn’t this Lise?”

Kage looked up at me and asked.

At her question, Lise, with a stiff expression I had never seen before, shook her head.

“No, it’s not me.”

At her cold response, Kage also realized that the atmosphere was not normal and remained silent.

Hmm. Their reactions seem to indicate that it’s related to Lise.

But the person in the portrait looks too young to be Lise.

Hmm. It’s a bit difficult to conclude that it’s Lise just by looking at the portrait.

“……”

“……”

An awkward silence filled the air between us.

Forget it. Let’s not dig any deeper.

To be honest, I’m curious, but seeing their reactions, it’s better to leave it alone.

After all, this wasn’t my original purpose anyway.

I shifted my gaze to another quest.

Not long after, I found the quest I was looking for in the corner.

Okay, I found it.

I took the quest and approached the receptionist, handing her the temporary adventurer certificate and the quest.

The receptionist wrote something on the certificate and then handed it back to me along with the quest, speaking in a business-like tone.

“Yes, it’s been registered.”

“Thank you. Goodbye.”

With that, I took the quest and placed it where the adventurers who had just picked a fight with me could see it.

I’ll send Ashad’s friends there. Wait for it.
