Avoid Yandere Constellation

We left the capital and headed towards the cult’s branch, located between the capital and the territory once ruled by the ducal family.

‘Hmm, it’ll only take about six hours to march there.’

For ordinary people, six hours of marching might seem like a lot, but for us, with our extraordinary physical abilities, it’s like eating a piece of cake.

However, unlike the rest of us who are melee fighters, Skaya and Sion, the mages, were panting heavily.

I can understand why they’re struggling.

They’re trying to keep up with our pace, which is not an easy task for them since they don’t exercise much.

“Skaya, are you okay?”

“No, I feel like I’m going to die, seriously.”

Her voice was filled with sincerity, and her face looked like she was on the verge of death.

So, I said,

“Skaya, let me carry you on my back.”

I knelt down in front of her and offered my back.

Skaya was startled and widened her eyes.

“Huh? What?!”

She was so flustered that she stumbled over her words.

Then, with a solemn expression, she swallowed hard.

-Gulp!

Why is she even swallowing?

As I wondered about this, Eileen approached, unable to ignore the situation.

“Skaya, you seem to be having a hard time. I’ll carry you instead of Kaine.”

“Huh?”

Eileen interrupted the conversation unexpectedly.

She crossed her arms with an annoyed look on her face, as if she wouldn’t give up on this matter.

“Why? Do you have any complaints, Skaya?”

“No, it’s not that…”

Perhaps it was because of Eileen’s cold tone that Skaya looked away.

Then, with a slightly disappointed expression, she slowly nodded.

“Okay, I understand. Then, I’m sorry, but please carry me for a while.”

“Yes, I will.”

“If you get tired, just say so. Kaine will take over.”

“That won’t be necessary.”

The two of them smiled at each other, but the air seemed to turn cold, even though their words were peaceful. It must be my imagination.

[The Goddess of Fate also wants to be carried.]

I wish she would just shut up before I flip out.

As I was thinking this, Sion looked at Skaya with envious eyes, as if she also wanted to travel comfortably.

William sighed and then said something unexpected.

At the same time, I doubted my own ears.

After all,

“Professor Sion, let me carry you.”

William, who hates being bothered, was offering to carry someone.

Could it be that they’re in a relationship?

Sion blushed and nodded.

She looked embarrassed.

“Yes…”

Sion was carried on William’s back.

From their reactions, it seemed like my guess was correct.

When I mentioned William as an excuse the other day, it must have been because of this.

“Oppa♥, carry me too.”

At that moment, a familiar voice came from behind.

It was Lisanna, speaking in a cute voice.

I turned to her and said,

“Yes, I’ll carry you. I’m stronger than you.”

“Wow, you’re so cool!”

It was just a joke, Lisana.

But she gave me a cold look, as if I had lost my mind.

At the same time, the people around me looked at me as if I had gone crazy.

[The Goddess of Fate says that’s not right.]

Even the Constellation betrayed me.

.

.

.

About six hours later, they arrived at the cult’s branch.

Unlike during the march, everyone’s expressions became serious.

“Professor, what should we do?”

“Hmm, I’m also thinking about it. Should we infiltrate or…”

Should we just barge in?

William paused, deep in thought, while Kaine also pondered.

‘Hmm, it’s not a bad idea to be cautious.’

To be honest, I don’t think it’s necessary.

In the original story, they stormed in without a plan and still managed to clear the stage easily, even though their strength was weaker than it is now. ṝ

‘No, it wasn’t just easy, it was overwhelming.’

They completely overwhelmed the cult.

But now, their strength is even greater.

No one will get hurt, and they won’t even consume much stamina.

It’s an overkill to have all of us attack a single cult branch.

‘Hmm, but just in case, let’s take a look at the map.’

There’s no guarantee that the cult’s strength is the same as in the original story, so it’s better to be cautious.

After all, there’s no guarantee that a sub-executive or Andrew won’t be there.

‘Well, it’s almost 100% certain that they won’t be there.’

As I thought this, I used the map-viewing skill.

As expected, their strength hadn’t increased, and there were no sub-executives or Andrew there.

‘There’s no need to look further.’

After coming to a decision, Kaine suggested to William, who was deep in thought,

“Professor, let’s just barge in.”

“Hmm, why do you think so?”

“Yes, to be honest, even if we assume that Kim Soo-yong is fully prepared and has meticulously planned the operation, he alone could destroy the cult’s branch.”

Kim Soo-yong nodded in agreement with Kaine’s words.

Ignoring his reaction, Kaine continued,

“And look at our current strength.”

“…”

William looked at the group with a serious expression.

‘Indeed.’

It would be ridiculous for us to infiltrate with this much strength.

As Kaine said, our strength is not only overwhelming but excessive.

The enemy would be pitiful.

As William silently agreed, Kaine spoke up,

“And it will also serve as a warning to the cult.”

“A warning?”

“Yes, if we overwhelm and destroy the cult’s branch like this, it might raise their awareness.”

The cult has been active recently.

Although Ange has destroyed several branches and killed a sub-executive,

The cult probably considers Ange as an exception and underestimates the rest of us.

So, it might be a good idea to give them a warning at this point.

William nodded in agreement.

“Okay, then let’s just barge in.”

So, Kaine and his group marched towards the cult’s branch without any stealth, as if they were visiting their own homes.

.

.

.

‘Ah, this is so comfortable.’

It’s not an exaggeration to say that I’m literally comfortable.

I’m secretly eating popcorn and watching the fight from behind, so it’s easy.

I shifted my gaze to the group, who were fighting hard.

“Kyaaah!”

“It’s the enemy!”

Willy and Eileen swung their swords with unemotional eyes.

“You crazy woman!”

“Ah~ Where are you going?!”

Lisanna pouted with an excited expression.

-Boom! Bang!

Skaya and Sion unleashed their magic, causing the onlookers to be startled.

-Whoosh! Boom!

William and Rain shone with brightness and divinity.

Burke and Kim Soo-yong attacked alongside the others.

And finally, I was behind them, not doing anything… I mean, giving commands.

“This is perfect.”

[The Goddess of Fate says that they feel sorry for the enemy.]

Normally, I would ask what’s so pitiful about those guys, but…

‘They do look a little pitiful.’

From a third-party perspective, we could be called cult members for killing everyone without mercy.

The cult members might be thinking, ‘Why are they suddenly attacking us out of nowhere?!’ But they have no choice but to accept their fate.

That’s how helpless they are.

‘But still, it’s pitiful.’

It’s only right for criminals to die.

Unless they were forced to join, but from their reactions, that’s not the case.

I don’t know what they’re relying on, but they haven’t realized the situation yet.

They’re looking at the female members with lustful eyes.

I threw a dagger at the cult member who hadn’t realized the situation, using my full body enhancement.

• Whoosh!

The dagger flew at a fast speed.

Soon,

“Kyaaah! My eyes!”

It hit the cult member’s eyes accurately.

Perhaps my action pleased Lisanna, Eileen, and Skaya, as they glanced at me for a moment during the fight.

Hey, why are you looking at me in this situation?

Well, even if they take their eyes off the fight for a moment, they won’t be in danger.

But they’re staring at me so obviously.

I ignored their gazes and activated the map-viewing skill to check if there were any hidden enemies.

And as expected,

“Kim Soo-yong! There’s one hiding behind the rock to your left!”

“Huh? Okay!”

Without hesitation, Kim Soo-yong headed towards the rock.

At the same time,

-Slash!

A blood-soaked corpse flew out from behind the rock.

It was cut in half, so it was probably Kim Soo-yong’s doing.

‘He’s indeed the protagonist, he’s so strong.’

As soon as I thought this,

Kim Soo-yong appeared from behind the rock, wiping the blood off his sword onto the ground.

‘Let’s see.’

Are there any more hidden enemies?

At that moment,

“Die!”

A hidden enemy rushed towards me.

Since I had already turned up the volume,

“Go to your parents.”

I used body enhancement and kicked the enemy.

-Crack!

The sound of a neck breaking echoed.

I looked at the enemy, and as expected, his neck was twisted 180 degrees.

The next moment, we walked towards the branch leader with great dignity.

.

.

.

At the same time,

Dwayne, a sub-executive and branch leader of the cult, was…

“Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!”

He was cursing with a frown on his face.

Then, he threw an object at the wall.

-Bang!

The object and the wall were both destroyed.

He didn’t care about the wall and took a deep breath.

“Huff, huff.”

He was close to completing the incantation.

Moreover, the sacrifices were almost ready.

But…

“Branch Leader, the enemies are continuously attacking us!”

Yes,

An unexpected variable had occurred, and it wasn’t a minor one.

‘What should I do?’

The enemies who had invaded were all famous individuals in the world, and the cult had been keeping an eye on them.

There was no way he could win against them.

The only option he had was…

‘That’s the only way.’

Demon possession.

The incantation wasn’t completely finished, but…

‘That doesn’t mean demon possession is impossible.’

The success rate was 50%.

If he could overcome the 50% chance and successfully possess the demon,

‘At least, I can escape without dying.’

However, the problem wasn’t that.

A 50% success rate also meant a 50% failure rate.

If he failed, he would surely die.

“…”

In the end, he had to take a gamble.

After all, he would die either way.

So, he needed to be bold in this situation.

Dwayne shifted his gaze to his subordinate, who looked anxious.

“Are the enemies who invaded the Royal Academy professors and Kim Soo-yong?”

“Yes, sir.”

The subordinate nodded without hesitation.

Dwayne closed his eyes and said,

“Then, from now on, we will use the demon possession incantation.”
