Avoid Yandere Constellation

It’s natural for people to have limited thoughts when their emotions are overwhelming, even if they are powerful.

Ange, in front of me, doesn’t seem to doubt for a second that I’m acting, and she looks at me with a delighted expression.

To be honest, I would have believed it too if I were Ange.

The sacred power I emit is so bright that it’s believable even if it’s just an avatar descending.

It’s just so bright.

And from Ange’s perspective, since she doesn’t sense any sacred power from me, she wouldn’t feel anything.

Given the circumstances, it’s more reasonable for her to think that the constellation has descended upon me.

[Ange, I wish we could talk longer, but I don’t have much time.]

“No, goddess.”

[I’m sorry, but let’s get to the point. Soon, a disaster will befall humanity.]

“When will it come?”

At my serious tone, her expression also became serious.

[I’m not sure exactly when it will happen, but you won’t be able to overcome it without the help of the person in front of you. So, I’m asking you. If he asks for your help…]

“I’ll help him.”

Before I could finish my sentence, Ange nodded her head.

Okay, I’ve gained one useful person.

Now that I’ve gotten confirmation, it’s time to start thinking about when to say goodbye. It’s better not to drag this out.

I slowly started to lower the Effect Quality again.

Seeing the sacred power diminishing from my body, Ange spoke in a trembling voice.

“Go, goddess?”

[I’m sorry, but I don’t have much power left to descend.]

“Goddess, will we meet again?”

At her tearful question, I nodded my head.

[Don’t worry, it’s not a permanent farewell. We will definitely meet again after overcoming the disaster.]

“Yes, I understand. I will definitely help him.”

[Th, thank you…]

Before she could finish her sentence, I quickly removed the Effect Quality completely.

This is how you leave a lasting impression.

The bright light emanating from my body disappeared, and I breathed heavily, as if hyperventilating.

“Huff! Huff!”

“Are you okay?”

“Yes…”

At her question, I nodded my head. Ange looked at me with a guilty expression and used the highest level of sacred power recovery on me.

My body was enveloped in a brilliant light, and I felt warm, as if I were surrounded by a dazzling spotlight.

“I’m sorry. I, I misunderstood and wasted my power, didn’t I?”

“…”

I didn’t respond to her question. She took my silence as a yes and continued.

“The goddess told me that you’re the only one who can overcome the disaster. I don’t know how much I can help, but I’ll support you as much as I can.”

“Yes. But can you stop healing me now?”

To be honest, receiving the highest level of recovery when I haven’t used any power is meaningless. It’s a waste of sacred power.

To be blunt, it’s just warm.

And the one who used power was Ange, not me. In reality, she’s the one who needs to rest.

But how much sacred power does she have?

Even from the sacred power she emitted earlier, it was clear that she had used an overwhelming amount. But despite this, she didn’t show any signs of fatigue and used the highest level of sacred power recovery on me, which most priests can’t even use.

She’s a monster.

Hearing my words, she nodded, seeing that my breathing had calmed down, and finally stopped the sacred power recovery.

“By the way, how did you end up here, Saint?”

“Ah, ah. Th, that… The goddess told me to help you.”

At my question, she waved her arms frantically, her face turning red.

She seems to feel embarrassed about what she said.

From her answer, it seems that what she said wasn’t a lie. This means that the constellation knew that she would try to kill me.

Well, knowing Ange’s personality, it’s not surprising.

Ange realized that she had done something embarrassing and hung her head low.

“It’s okay. Everyone makes mistakes. What’s important is to correct those mistakes. So, you don’t have to feel embarrassed.”

“Yes…”

At my gentle words, Ange responded in a weak voice and nodded her head. Then, she slowly blushed and glanced at me. Her breathing was also strangely rough.

… What’s going on? Why is she looking at me like that?

I can’t pinpoint her expression, but it was like the look of a girl who had fallen in love at first sight.

It feels like the target has shifted from the constellation to me.

Did I say something too convincing?

A sense of foreboding ran down my spine and spread throughout my body, but…

No, it can’t be. That’s impossible.

As I was momentarily denying reality, the constellation sent me a message.

[The Fate’s Goddes says that Ange has changed her target to you.]

Damn.

.

.

.

To achieve my original goal of obtaining the hidden item, I walked towards the fountain where clear water gushed out.

Ange followed me with a honeyed gaze, not saying a word.

We looked at the five statues of the goddess, which were not just beautiful but could be called a work of art.

Seeing them in real life after only seeing them in the game, it feels like I’m looking at the Statue of Liberty.

Even just as statues, they look beautiful, so I wonder how they would look in real life.

Dying from a beautiful goddess’s hug at the end of the game doesn’t sound too bad.

Of course, this is based on the bad ending.

As we stood there, admiring the statues…

[The Fate’s Goddes asks you which one is the prettiest.]

Which one is the prettiest?

To be honest, they’re all equally beautiful.

Of course, it’s not that they’re not pretty, but all five statues are gorgeous.

But…

They’re just statues, so how can you tell which one is prettier?

They’re all beautiful, but who are they supposed to be?

There are five constellations in the continent, and they are…

There are five constellations in the continent: ‘The Fate’s Goddes’, ‘The Goddess Who Enjoys Play’, ‘The Goddess Who Loves Fighting’, ‘The Goddess of Dimensions’, and ‘The Goddess Who Shares Happiness’.

The problem is that it’s impossible to distinguish between them based on the statues in front of me.

To be honest, they all look pretty similar.

Normally, I wouldn’t answer the constellation’s question, but since I’m a little annoyed at the one who caused me all this trouble, I turned towards the statue that looked the least like her.

[… The Fate’s Goddes says that you indeed have an eye for these things.]

The constellation’s response was a beat late, indicating that it wasn’t the statue of the Fate’s Goddes.

I can’t see her reaction, but I can guess what she’s doing.

Undoubtedly, she’s probably gnawing on a handkerchief with a resentful expression, grinding her teeth.

Thinking about it makes me feel relieved.

I took out five holy waters from the subspace ring that Thomas had taken back and then returned to me.

“Kaine-nim?”

“Ah, just watch. The goddess has given me a divine revelation.”

I lied without batting an eye and ignored the reactions of both Ange and the constellation, sprinkling one of the holy waters on the statue.

-Whoosh!

A small amount of sacred power briefly appeared on the statue.

I sprinkled the other four holy waters on the remaining statues, one on each.

Thus, five small sacred powers rose and merged on top of the statues.

[What?! How do you know about this?!]

Look how surprised she is.

I continued to ignore the constellation’s message, which was making a buzzing sound, and turned towards the sacred power that was slowly merging into one.

It’s like a Genki Dama.

Despite the sacred scene, I felt like it resembled a scene from a certain manga.

Unlike me, Ange, who was standing next to me, stared at the sacred power floating in the air with wide eyes.

After a while, the sacred power completely merged, and a small golden cross necklace appeared. The necklace then fell.

I caught the necklace before it hit the ground.

A golden cross necklace that looked sacred… It’s definitely the hidden item I was looking for, the Sacred Cross, which I finally obtained after going through all this trouble.

This item was originally created by the game developers for beginner players. Therefore, it’s not an essential item for the protagonist.

By the way, Kim Soo-yong couldn’t obtain this item.

It’s understandable when you think about it. To be honest, the hidden item event is not related to the original story.

Therefore, it’s natural that Kim Soo-yong, who follows the original story, wouldn’t obtain this item.

Or maybe it’s because the constellation came to me?

Only the constellations and I, who know the game, are aware of this hidden item.

Since the constellation came to me, it’s possible that Kim Soo-yong couldn’t obtain this item.

… No, that can’t be it.

Yeah, it’s just my imagination. That’s what it must be.

.

.

.

Meanwhile, at the same time…

The constellation frowned and gnawed on a handkerchief with a resentful expression.

“How does he know about this?!”

The Sacred Cross that Kaine obtained is an artifact created by the constellations as a joke.

Although it was made as a joke, the constellations created it, so its performance is exceptional compared to other artifacts.

But that’s not the problem.

It’s undeniable that it’s a good item, but the important thing is how Kaine knows about the constellations’ dark history.

To be honest, the constellations created this item imagining that all of humanity would worship them.

At the time, it seemed natural, but now it feels embarrassing.

After seeing this item, the constellations realized how embarrassing it was, so they combined their powers to seal it away.

Therefore, only the five constellations know the location of this item.

Could it be… Does he know all our dark history?

There are countless other artifacts created as jokes, not just this one. If Kaine knows all our dark history…

No, that can’t be it.

Putting that aside, how did he manage to restore Ange to normal?

To be fair, Ange’s mind is a little unstable, and even when I descended as an avatar, it was beyond my ability to solve.

If it was due to some trick, I wouldn’t know, but it’s not that. It’s just that her trauma has caused her mind to become so fragile that even a transcendent being couldn’t do anything.

But Kaine solved it, and in an unexpected way.

… Now that I think about it, I feel resentful.

To be honest, Kaine’s method of survival was groundbreaking. I don’t know how he did it, but he managed to emit sacred power convincingly.

He even pretended to be a transcendent being and acted as if I had descended.

For a mortal, it was the perfect act.

Despite using me for his act, when asked which statue was the prettiest, he chose the statue of a different goddess!

What?! I was so generous to him!!

Frankly, if he had used the name of another goddess to imitate a descent he would have been met with divine retribution, or Ange would have divulged the truth to her.

What?! I let it slide because it was me!!

He ignored me despite sending messages every day and spending time together, and on top of that, he chose the statue of the goddess she hated the most, the Goddess Who Shares Happiness.

I feel angry, but I don’t know why. It’s been a while since I felt this angry.

-Crack!

The constellation bit down harder on the handkerchief, tearing it.

The constellation looked at Kaine’s screen with cold eyes, unable to contain her excitement.

-Tap!

[The Fate’s Goddes says ‘Humph!’]

Okay, let’s send this! Maybe this will get his attention?

The constellation puffed out her cheeks and sent a message with her lips pouting.
