Avoid Yandere Constellation-Chapter 216

About an hour had passed since then.

Only a few minutes before the courage test started.

As we were waiting for our turn, Eileen muttered with a pouty face.

“…I wanted to take the courage test with Kaine.”

“I wanted to do that too…”

Skaya nodded gloomily, and Lisanna, who had been listening from the side, gave a triumphant smile.

“Blame your unlucky seniors~”

“….”

“….”

The two of them trembled at her annoying smile.

The method the three of us decided on wasn’t anything special.

It was just a simple game of rock-paper-scissors like the one used to divide teams on Earth.

It was Lisanna who opened her hand with me in the game.

[The Goddess of Fate says she wants to join too.]

At that moment, the old lady who wanted to butt in between the children.

I shook my head while looking at her message.

“Of course, that’s not allowed. What are you even talking about?”

“…Huh? What’s all this sudden talk about?”

Skaya, who had been looking gloomy, tilted her head at my words.

I slowly opened my mouth.

“She says Fate wants to join too or something.”

“…Sometimes, I wonder if she’s really a goddess.”

“I agree. She’s nothing like the image I had in mind.”

“…I can’t really deny it.”

Lisanna nodded in agreement with Skaya and Eileen’s observations.

The next moment.

[The Goddess of Happiness says she agrees with that comment very much.]

[The Goddess of Fate says you should just shut your mouth.]

Happiness, who had added a word, was scolded by Fate.

As I ignored the fight between the two goddesses,

• Kyaaaaah!

•

• Aaaah!

•

A loud scream echoed in my ears.

What on earth did they see to be so scared?

While I couldn’t understand,

• Squish!

•

Suddenly, a soft, indescribable feeling touched my arms and back.

I turned my head.

And then,

“Are you guys scared of ghosts too?”

The three of them stiffened and clung to me.

They then looked at me with eyes full of confusion.

“Aren’t you scared?”

“Why are you so calm?”

“How are you so fine?”

“No. Isn’t it weird to be scared?”

The three of them tilted their heads.

I continued speaking.

“Why would you be scared of a ghost? You can just beat it up with strength.”

Honestly, the only strange thing about ghosts is that they exist, but in terms of pure strength, the three of them are far more terrifying.

If ghosts really existed, wouldn’t they just run away from them?

As I thought this, Skaya replied, as if questioning my words.

“Hey. That’s not a ghost, it’s a monster. What kind of ghost is that?”

“…Huh? What’s the difference between the two?”

“…Ghosts are immune to magic and swords. That’s why they’re called ghosts.”

The next moment, Eileen added to Skaya’s explanation.

“And there’s never been anyone who survived after seeing a ghost. That’s why, normally, people run away from ghosts.”

“….”

Now, I understood why they were scared.

After all, they’re a genius swordsman, a magician, and a saint.

But when stripped of all that, the reality is…

‘They’re just ordinary girls.’

So, it’s natural for them to be scared of something unknown.

Anyone who encounters an unknown entity will at least feel some tension.

‘Well, but, it doesn’t really seem like there’s a ghost here.’

The ghosts here are probably just professors in disguise.

If it wasn’t that, there’d be no reason for some professors to be absent.

‘The reason the students are scared is that they’re probably mistaking the professors for real ghosts because they can’t sense them.’

While I thought that,

-“Wow, how could you leave me behind?”

-“Oh, no, it’s a misunderstanding. I would never leave you behind.”

The couple who had been showing affection earlier returned.

Seeing the guy looking flustered, it seemed that, as expected, he had left his girlfriend behind.

‘Yeah. It’s always guys like him who leave their girlfriends behind and run away.’

I silently accepted that thought when,

“Groups 10 and 11, it’s your turn!”

Lucy called the next groups.

Group 10, she mentioned, was me and Lisanna, while group 11 was another couple.

We approached her after hearing her words.

“Can you see the location marked on the map?”

She pointed to a well and an octagonal pavilion.

I nodded and spoke.

“So, we just need to take a magic orb from there, right?”

“Yes. Group 11 will get theirs from the other two locations.”

“Got it, understood…”

The man nodded solemnly after hearing Lucy’s words.

With that said, we headed out of the building to begin the courage test.

A dark and gloomy forest.

A breeze brushes against my whole body.

With a tense atmosphere, we were walking toward our destination.

Then, at that moment,

-Rustling!

The sound of the bushes shaking echoed in my ears.

At the same time,

“Ha!”

Lisanna gasps, startled as she swallows air.

She immediately pulls on my arm with all her strength.

The feeling of her grip is somewhat warm.

‘…This courage test isn’t so bad.’

While I’m feeling that soft touch, Fate keeps spamming messages.

[The goddess of fate asks if you like it that much? Huh? Do you like it that much? Her chest?]

A message full of jealousy.

Since I’m a man, it’s only natural to like a chest.

So, I confidently nod and then turn to Lisanna, who is trembling.

“If you’re that scared, why are you doing this?”

-Kyuut!

Lisanna answers our question.

“If not now, when else would I be alone with you?”

“Is being alone with me that important?”

“You might not get it, but for us, that’s huge.”

I tilted my head, not understanding why that’s such a big deal.

As I was confused, the Constellation sent a message.

[The goddess of fate says she strongly agrees with what that girl said.]

It seems like she agrees a lot.

Lisanna continued.

“Do you remember the time we were alone together?”

“Uh…”

As I trailed off, she laughs quietly and replies.

“The only time we were properly alone together was the day of the entrance exam, when we were fighting.”

“…?”

“So, it’s hard to get a chance to be alone with you, especially since we’re not even in the same class like the seniors.”

I was speechless.

Just as she said, the only memory I had of being alone with her was during the entrance exam.

‘Well, there were a few times, but it was only for a maximum of 3 minutes.’

Was it because of the serious talk?

“…?”

“…?”

A brief, awkward silence passed between us.

This was the first time I had such an atmosphere with Lisanna.

As we walked in silence,

-Swoosh!

I heard the sound of the bushes rustling.

The next moment,

-Clutch!

Lisanna grabs my arm tightly.

No, hey, that hurts. Please hold on gently.

I’m pretending to be calm, but my arm keeps aching without exaggeration.

If she grips it any harder, I think my arm might bruise.

“If you’re so scared, just hold onto this guy.”

-Kyuut?!

I quickly sacrifice Yong-yong as a distraction.

Then, Yong-yong looks at me with eyes full of betrayal.

‘You prefer girls over guys, right?’

Of course, I don’t even know whether it’s male or female, but

Lisanna quickly grabs Yong-yong before it can escape.

-Kyuuwuuut?!

At that moment, Yong-yong screams with joy.

I guess Lisanna’s embrace is quite comfortable.

At that moment,

-Twang!

I feel pain in my arm.

Wondering what’s going on, I turn my head and see Yong-yong , who seems to be rebelling, gripping my arm tightly.

As if it couldn’t die alone.

-Creak!

Wait a minute? Yong-yong ? Why are you grabbing me?

I was momentarily confused by Yong-yong ’s resistance.

“Hmm? Isn’t that over there?”

Lisanna, who had calmed down a little because of Yong-yong , points with her finger.

I follow her finger and turn my head.

Then,

“That looks like it.”

In my field of vision, I see a well.

Anyone could tell that a professor disguised as a ghost would appear from inside.

And sure enough…

“Shit, shit, shit, shit.”

The professor appears, muttering curses while casting a shadow over his face.

But,

“…?”

“…?”

Contrary to the professor’s expectations, we aren’t startled at all.

Unlike the other students, we can sense the professor’s presence.

The professor awkwardly scratches his head.

“Aren’t you guys scared?”

“We can tell you’re a professor, so what’s there to be scared of?”

“…Ah, right.”

Lisanna nods with a composed face.

It seems that, despite sensing the professor’s presence, she was a little surprised.

“Tch! Boring. Take this.”

The professor clicks his tongue and hands us a crystal ball.

We take the crystal ball and head toward our next destination.

.

.

.

We quickly arrive at the next destination.

And as expected, a professor disguised as a ghost appears from the octagonal pavilion.

By now, the routine was predictable, so Lisanna responded indifferently.

“Ugh. The kids these days don’t even know how to be scared of ghosts. Tsk, tsk.”

The professor, disguised as a ghost, sounds like an old man.

As we ignore the professor’s words and start turning back,

“I don’t think this is scary at all.”

Lisanna mutters with a rather cold expression.

Then, as if she had expected this, she tries to act tough.

“Well, I thought the professors would dress up as ghosts anyway.”

“You… You were scared up until now.”

“Huh? Me? No way.”

-Rustling!

Before she could finish speaking, the sound of rustling from the bushes is heard.

At the same time,

-Flinch!

Lisanna, who had been acting tough, immediately hugs Yong-yong tightly and flinches.

What a sudden shift in attitude.

As I watch in disbelief,

-Ugh!

This time, I hear a sound in my ear.

And it’s a woman’s voice.

“What is it? Is it really a ghost?”

“…What are you saying? There can’t be any ghosts. Where would ghosts be?”

As she says, there’s no way it’s a ghost.

I can clearly sense a presence in real-time.

Still, something feels off.

If it’s a professor disguised as a ghost, why would it remain still?

“…I don’t think this is right. Let’s go check it out.”

“R-Really?”

“Yeah. If you’re scared, stay here.”

“N-No, I’ll go with you.”

Lisanna shakes her head and follows me.

So, we stealthily approach the place where we sense the presence.

Then, after a while, the scene in front of us…

‘What the hell…’

I almost let a curse slip out.

And it’s no wonder.

“Ugh!”

“Keep your voice down. They’ll hear us.”

“Ah, but it feels so good.”

It’s because the couple we started with earlier is exploring each other’s bodies.

Caught off guard by this unexpected sight,

Lisanna quickly covers Yong-yong ’s eyes and mutters in a shy voice.

“Perverts.”
