Avoid Yandere Constellation

Chapter 32



Chapter 32

When I arrived at the mansion with Skaya, I was greeted by Riche and Kelsey.

Welcome, young master.

Master. Arent you a little late today?

This is normal, yesterday I came too soon.

As I answer her question, Kelsey ignores me and looks at Skaya behind him.

Master. Youve already start flirting with women even though youve just been divorced.

Shes just a childhood friend.

Master. My parents told me that girls and boys cant be friends.

The way she talks, youd think shed been in at least 100 relationships.

As I stood there, mouth agape in disbelief, she got carried away and said something she shouldnt have.

And. Shes the weirdest girl Ive ever met.

Before Kelsey can finish his sentence, Skaya smiles an eerie smile and, without even uttering a word, shoots out a colorful fire from her hand.

Yikes!

HOW DID YOU MANAGE TO MEET SUCH A YOUNG BEAUTY, MASTER IS REALLY LUCKY, YES VERY LUCKY!

See attitude change.

As Kage finished speaking, Skaya smiled brightly and withdrew her magic.

I feel it every time, Kelsey, but youd be in trouble one day if you stayed like this.

Kuu! Not something a master is supposed to say!

Who among us can stay still like me?

At that point, me and Kelsey were arguing. Riche and Skaya greet each other.

Skaya-sama, its been a while.

Yeah. Its been a while, too, Riche, but I can tell from your expression that something good has happened to you lately. Did you work nights with him as soon as he got break up?

Huh?! Oh. No.

At Skayas question, Riche looks embarrassed, as if she doesnt know what to say.

To what extent does she see me as trash?

Of course, theres no denying that Riche is the kind of girl I like.

But even so, Im not that much of a s**mbag to put my hands on her when Ive just broken up with my ex-fianc.

And it seems like shes trying to keep things in line.

As I stand there, lost in thought, she tilts her head at me and asks.

By the way. Master, I wonder what brings Skaya-Sama here?

Huh? Ah that.

It shouldnt be an issue to say that Skaya is teaching me magic.

In the first place, Riche and Kelsey knew I was training in magic. And Im sure Tomas knows, too.

But the problem is, the moment I tell her, I have to tell her why.

Hmm. Maybe I should just come clean?

I pause for a moment.

Kane, he got into a fight with a student, so I decided to teach him magic.

Skaya explained, leaving out the important parts.

After hearing that, Riche and Kelsey look at me with a look that says, So thats it, then, and shake their heads.

Why are you looking at me like that?

***

Skayas explanation was too brief, so he explains it to them in detail.

After listening to the explanation, the two nodded in understanding.

I thought. I thought my master had lost his temper since the day after the first day of school.

To be honest, I thought so too.

What in the world sort of image did you guys project on me?

I mean, I know its natural for them to be like that considering Kanes status, but still, even I, a man with a heart like the sea, cant help but be hurt when the people who have been watching me the longest since I was possessed say things like that.

Anyway. Thats how it came to be that Skaya agreed to help me for a week.

Hmm. I see. By the way, that f**king dogOgtin, Tsk, crossed the line after all.

I feel like Riche has just uttered something unusually harsh, but Im probably mistaken.

So, in the end?

Ah. The truth is, that b**tard has been eyeing you since the first term.

Finally. Just a bastard.

At the time, I was protecting Master, so he didnt cross the line.

Im sure if he had touched me back then, he would have been beaten to death by Riche.

Kelsey looks up at me curiously as Riche finishes speaking.

So, Master, are you confident of defeating that Ogtin or whatever?

Hmm I dont know, well see.

To be honest, when I played the game, Ogtin was nothing more than an extra, a character that could be defeated with a few tweaks.

The problem is, Im no longer Kim Soo-yong.

Im Kane, an extra.

Of course, Ive worked a lot harder than I did in the game, but the fact remains that Im just an extra.

Dont worry about that. If my thoughts are correct, youll be able to crush Ogtin in a week of training with me.

1 Yes.

Judging by Skayas confident expression, it seems Ogtins skills arent as bad as I thought.

With that, Skaya and I walked to the mansions training grounds to train in magic.

***

Arriving at the training ground. Skaya pulls a notebook from her subspace ring and flips through it.

Hmmm. Ill take two.

She looks at it and smiles with satisfaction.

For now, since were short on time, Ill give you two lessons for the week.

Two?

Yes. One is the physical enhancement you used today and the other is the mental enhancement.

Hmm? I expected the former, but the latter is a surprise?

Is it?

Yes. Honestly, I expected the physical strengthening, but I didnt expect you to teach me a mental strengthening magic, which honestly doesnt help me much in a duel, does it?

At my question, Skaya raises her index finger and waves it from side to side, then clicks her tongue

Tsk! Tsk! Tsk! Youre not wrong, mental enhancement isnt as helpful in combat as other magic. But for the person you are now, its absolutely necessary.

Huh? Do I need it now?

At best, mental enhancement can only strengthen your mental strength. Nothing more, nothing less.

It might give you a little more focus in a fight, but I dont think its very effective compared to other offensive magic.

No. There are other ways to use it.

But its impossible for her to know about my secret.

So I dont think she had that in mind when she said it.

What on earth did she see that made her think I needed it?

As I ponder my mental enhancement skill, she crosses her arms as if to break the train of thought.

Well, its easier to see than to say.

I nod, understanding her words.

Just as Skaya is about to cast a spell to show me a physical enhancement.

Wait a minute. Ill do some doping.

Doping?

She tilted her head at my words. I ignored Skayas reaction and drank the experience potion from my subspace ring.

Seriously, I feel like Im cheating when I drink this stuff.

Then lets get started.

I dont know what that drug is, but whatever.

With those words, Skaya activated her physical enhancement without even looking at the potion.

Wow. Lowest level magic, right?

Even though its the same magic, its a far cry from the physical enhancement I used today.

Well, thats to be expected.

Ive been doping and training in magic enhancement during the school holidays, but its been a month at most.

Skaya, on the other hand, has been training every day since she was a child, unlike me, so its no wonder theres such a difference.

As you know, physical enhancement is the lowest level of magic, but it varies greatly depending on the users magic power. In my case, I have more magic power than most mages, so my physical enhancement is exceptionally high. But.

Skaya released the physical enhancement and sighed heavily.

Huh. Its not really good for mages, you know, because mages dont train their bodies the way knights do, so even a little bit of physical enhancement can cause their bodies to recoil.

As she says this, Skaya points her index finger at me and continues.

But youre different, Kane. From what Ive seen of your body, its not inferior to that of most aspiring knights, and from what I can tell, using physical enhancement with your level of magic shouldnt put any strain on your body, unlike it does on us mages.

Well, youre right, I said, I tried it out in class today, and I did feel a little drained, but other than that, I didnt feel anything.

She nods her head with an I see look on her face.

Thats almost no recoil, because unlike you, my body is already tired right now.

Well, it looks that way.

Not lying, she has a cold sweat streak down her face, despite the fact that she only used her body enhancement for a very short time.

So. Why is mental enhancement important to me?

Well, even if youre the best at it, youll quickly run out of physical enhancements if you keep training, and mental enhancements are absolutely necessary to keep you going.

Ah! Definitely. Makes sense.

Even if my body is different from the average mages, if I continue to train with physical enhancement, it will quickly become drained.

But what if I train using mental enhancements?

At the very least, Ill be able to maintain my strength for a lot longer than I could with only physical enhancements.

Sure, it would be hard work, but with my holy cross, I shouldnt have a problem with that.

Skaya raises one corner of her mouth when she sees my convinced expression.

Anyway, enough of this. Lets train right now.

But how do I train? According to Professor Shion, the best way to activate the spell is to imprint the formula into my brain. Does that mean I have to memorise it for the rest of the day?

Well, normally Id recommend that, but were short on time, so well do it another way.

Another way? Is there such a thing?

I dont know, in the game, you can just put up skill points and learn it right away.

Like that, when I dont understand. She smiles benignly and says

Its simple, Ill give you a physical enhancement and a mental enhancement. Then your body and brain will subconsciously remember all about the magic.

Thats how you imprint the spell?

Yes. The formula itself was created with magic in the first place, but.

Oh, why is she trailing off at the end?

From her explanation, that method is definitely the most effective.

But theres something off about it.

My instincts alert me to danger, and then, as if by timing, Skaya freezes mid-sentence.

If it doesnt happen at once, and its going to be incredibly painfulthink about it.

W-what did I hear?

Not even once, and a lot of pain?

Surely I must have misheard.

[Goddess of Destiny sends her condolences to you].

I tried to deny it, but the constellation sent me a message, as if it knew what I was thinking.

Damn It. Of course it is.

If there was a way to do that in the first place, Shion would have told us about it in class.

But she didnt.

That must mean the pain is so intense that there are no solutions.

You know do I have a choice? Master?

She smiled at my question and said firmly.

Nope. None.

With those words, today was the day Skaya forcibly injected body-strengthening magic and mind-strengthening magic into my body.

That day, I felt a pain comparable to my bones being broken.

And just like that, a week passed.
