Avoid Yandere Constellation

Is it true that when people are shocked, they can’t think straight for a moment?

Kage’s mind went blank for a moment, experiencing what is commonly known as brain freeze.

‘Is it true that Ivrin is a cult member…?’

Kage tried to rationalize the situation, thinking that she might have misheard.

“Is that true?”

“Yes, it’s true. She’s a cult branch leader.”

Kaine confirmed the reality with a cold expression.

Kage shook her head, trying to rationalize the situation.

‘Maybe the master misunderstood. No, that can’t be. Ivrin can’t be a cult member.’

All the beastkin, including herself, were brutally murdered by the cult.

So, it was impossible for Ivrin, a beastkin herself, to be a cult member.

‘I need to go inside and clear up the misunderstanding…’

Kage cautiously knocked on the door.

“Knock, knock, knock.”

“Master, can I come in?”

“Yes, come in.”

Kaine’s indifferent voice allowed Kage to enter the room.

“So, how much did you hear?”

Kaine asked with a serious expression.

In fact, Kaine had been waiting for this moment.

He had been waiting for Kage to pass by the master’s room.

‘If I tell Kage directly, it won’t end well.’

So, he had naturally guided her to overhear the conversation while using map vision and the constellation to keep an eye on her.

In response to Kaine’s question, Kage answered with a sullen expression…

“Well, I heard from the time you said that Ivrin was a cult branch leader…”

“Hmm… So, you heard from the beginning.”

“Master, you must have misunderstood. Both you and the master of the master are suspicious of the cult, but Ivrin is like me, a victim of the cult.”

Kage spoke timidly, her ears drooping like a puppy.

Kaine had seen many expressions on Kage’s face, but this was the first time he saw her looking so depressed.

‘Sigh… I feel bad.’

Kaine sighed deeply and slowly explained to Kage so that she could understand…

“Kage, listen to me.”

“Yes, yes.”

“As you said, the beastkin were destroyed by the cult. You said that you were the only survivor.”

“Yes, yes.”

Kage nodded, unable to respond to Kaine’s words.

Kaine continued…

“But how did your friend suddenly come back to life? Do you remember what I said when we first met?”

“Well… you called me a brat and said that I was a maniac…”

Yes, that’s true, but that’s not the point.

It was awkward to say such things in a serious situation, and Kaine felt embarrassed.

Even Thomas, who was listening, gave him a pitiful look.

“Ahem. Forget that. Didn’t I tell you that I investigated your past?”

“Yes, I think so.”

“Well, when I investigated, I found that there were no survivors other than you.”

“Hmm…”

Kage’s brain froze again at Kaine’s words.

Kaine sighed deeply.

“Sigh… So, I felt something was off. First, a dead person suddenly appeared here, and then you met her. So, I followed you and found out…”

Kage swallowed her saliva as she waited for Kaine to finish speaking.

Kaine slowly opened his mouth and said…

“It turns out that she’s a cult branch leader.”

“Th, that… Did you hear wrong, Master?”

“Kage.”

Kaine’s cold voice made Kage shudder.

Then…

“Have I ever been wrong about the cult?”

[The goddess of Fate says that he’s lying…]

Get out, grandma.

Kaine ignored the constellation’s message and continued…

“Silence means consent. But since you might not believe me, I have evidence.”

Kaine took out an item from his Space ring.

It was none other than…

‘That’s…’

The communication ring, one of the items used to ruin Lise’s wedding.

At the same time…

“Hyaaa!”

Kage’s vision was filled with the recorded footage.

It was…

‘Hmm…’

The footage of Ivrin’s betrayal, which Kage had been trying to deny until now.

A wave of betrayal washed over her.

The sad emotions that she had pushed to the back of her mind started to resurface.

Kage wanted to scream, but she held it in.

Unlike her younger self, she was now a mature adult.

As Kage tried to hold back her emotions and watched the footage, the video finally ended.

“…”

“…”

An awkward silence filled the room.

‘Then…’

At the same time, old memories came flooding back.

The scene of the beastkin being slaughtered.

Ivrin sacrificing herself to save Kage.

And Kage surviving.

‘Ivrin said that her father sacrificed himself to save her…’

But the man who killed her mother had said that she was the only one left.

The situation didn’t make sense.

‘What if…’

If Ivrin had been working with the cult from the beginning, everything would make sense, from Ivrin being alive to the beastkin being destroyed.

‘It’s hard to say this, but…’

The beastkin are strong.

They are born with physical abilities far superior to humans, and they become stronger than most adventurers without even trying.

The only reason they live in the forest is because there are fewer of them than humans.

‘If they had the same numbers as humans, the beastkin would have taken over the Leiston continent.’

‘It’s unbelievable that the beastkin were destroyed in just one day.’

No matter how few they were, it’s hard to believe that they were destroyed without any proper resistance in just one day.

At the time, Kage was young and busy running away, so she didn’t think deeply about it.

‘If Ivrin had seduced the guards, it would make sense that the cult succeeded in their surprise attack.’

Kaine caught Kage as she staggered from the shock, feeling sorry for her.

“If you’re tired, just rest. I’ll take care of the rest.”

Kage remained silent in response to Kaine’s words.

“Master, just in case, did you already have a plan?”

“Yes, I already prepared everything.”

“Then, please modify one part of the plan.”

Kage made a solemn expression, determined.

“Please leave Ivrin to me.”

.

After Kage left the room, Thomas sighed deeply, feeling sorry for her.

“Sigh… It’s so sad to see such a young child go through this.”

“…”

Well, I can’t deny that.

I understand the sympathy, but what she’s going through is too much.

‘It’s a bit unfair.’

What she’s going through is not something a child her age should experience.

She may pretend to be an adult, but in reality, she’s still a child.

Just now, she tried to act like an adult by suppressing her emotions.

“But can she handle it?”

Thomas asked with a worried expression.

I nodded my head.

“Yes, Kage’s skills should be enough to handle a branch leader.”

“That’s not what I mean.”

Thomas interrupted me and shook his head.

“I’m asking if she can handle it, regardless of her skills.”

“Hmm… Do you have a valid reason?”

“No, but…”

I’ve seen her angrier than I’ve ever seen her before.

I added…

“And… I think it’s better for the person involved to solve this problem instead of us. Father.”

“You’re right. Let’s leave it at that. Now, let’s get moving. The cult will be making their move soon.”

“Yes, Father.”

With that, we left the room to prepare for the first war against the cult.

At the same time, Ivrin was looking up at the night sky in her room.

She thought back to what had happened in the past.

-Take my hand, Ivrin.

-Ivrin, let’s play!

Kage, who had just defeated Ivrin in a sparring match, reached out her hand without hesitation.

Unlike other beastkin, Kage treated Ivrin without discrimination.

Ivrin’s memories of Kage flashed through her mind, but at the same time…

-Huh? Why haven’t those guys driven the beastkin out of the forest yet?

-Who can understand what the chiefs are thinking?

-The elders have been saying that they don’t like the chief’s recent behavior. They say he’s going to change the law or something.

-Sigh. Why bother changing the law? It’s better to leave it as it is. I’m getting annoyed. Let’s throw stones at them.

The disgusting beastkin came to mind.

-Grrr!

Ivrin clenched her teeth, as if she wanted to break them.

Was it because she had met Kage today?

Unlike her usual rational self, Ivrin felt more emotional today.

‘Sigh… I need to calm down.’

It wouldn’t help to get excited now.

Soon, the cult would start a wave.

“When will John contact me?”

As Ivrin muttered to herself, the communication crystal ball vibrated.

“Yes, John-nim. This is Ivrin.”

“It seems like you weren’t discovered, judging by how relaxed you sound.”

“Yes, sir. The David family definitely thinks I’m just a guest.”

“Then, we’ll start the wave soon. You should also get ready.”

“Yes, sir.”

After that, Ivrin put the crystal ball back into her Space ring.

About a minute later…

“Hyaaa!”

A dark light appeared in the window, even though it was far from the mansion.

The dark light pierced through the clouds and blocked the moonlight.

Perhaps because it was night, the light seemed even darker than before.

“Rumble!”

“Kyaaaak!”

“Kweeeek!”

The mansion was far away, but the roars of the monsters could be heard in their ears.

Soon, the monsters would rush towards the mansion.

‘The David family will be destroyed.’

They didn’t prepare properly, and the cult was more prepared than ever.

‘The war has begun.’

Ivrin looked at the dark light with a gloomy expression.

“Hyaaa!”

Suddenly, a bright light burst out.

Then…

“What’s that?”

A woman more beautiful than any other woman Ivrin had ever seen descended from the sky.

However, her words didn’t match her appearance…

“Damn those cult bastards.”

Ivrin cursed under her breath.
