Avoid Yandere Constellation

Just when I was about to eat, I had to reject my ex-fiancée, and now another absurd situation has occurred.

[The Goddess of Fate is curious about how you will handle this.]

Not only the constellation but also the students in the cafeteria were all looking at us.

Yeah, I don’t need your gloves~ You can duel alone~ Why should I accept it?

To be honest, I have nothing to gain from dueling Ogtein.

If I beat him, he’s just a mid-tier student at best.

It’s not that difficult to win, but there’s no reason to accept it anyway.

And originally, if I refuse the duel, I won’t suffer any losses.

If I reject this, people around me might see me in a bad light.

My image has been low from the beginning, so even if it drops further, it won’t make any difference.

In conclusion, whether I win or refuse the duel, I have nothing to gain or lose.

So there’s no reason for me to accept it.

As I was thinking of refusing, a quest suddenly appeared.

[Emergency Quest Activated – Ogtein’s Duel!]

[Description: The extra character Ogtein from the game has challenged you to a duel. If you don’t accept the duel, a death flag may appear. Do your best to accept the duel.]

[Reward: 1,000 points for winning.]

To be honest, I really don’t like Ogtein.

He seems to have complaints about everything, and he always picks fights with me. He’s doing it again now.

He’s challenging me to a duel because he’s annoyed that I’m talking to Eileen, the Royal Academy goddess.

He’s a complete jerk.

Usually, guys like him need to get beaten up to come to their senses.

As I picked up Ogtein’s gloves, the students in the cafeteria were all shocked.

“Oooooooohhhh!!! What a surprise! News!”

[The Goddess of Fate is surprised.]

Even the constellation is a little surprised, but unlike the others, Eileen looks at me with concern.

Ogtein furrowed his eyebrows and spoke in a mocking tone.

“I’m surprised. I thought you’d back down like you did in the first semester…”

-Thud!

Before he finished speaking, the gloves I threw hit his face.

“Ouch! Sorry. I was just trying to return your gloves. I didn’t know you couldn’t take it.”

At my shameless words, Ogtein’s face turned red, then he took a deep breath to calm down.

“Huff… Okay, you can show off for now. Let’s have the duel after school next week at the training ground. Let’s agree to ask for what we want if we win.”

No, I don’t want anything from you.

But I knew that saying this out loud wouldn’t make any difference, so I just waved my hand dismissively as if I was too lazy to listen to him.

Ogtein clenched his teeth and turned away.

I had definitely won the verbal battle.

Ogtein left the cafeteria with a red face.

After winning the verbal battle with Ogtein, my food came out shortly after.

I went to get the ramen with a light heart.

Wow, there’s really ramen in this world. Damn.

To be honest, I was a little worried that it wouldn’t be the ramen I knew, but when I looked at the appearance and smelled it, it was definitely Korean ramen. There was even kimchi.

The chef’s sense is overflowing.

As I put the ramen on the table, Eileen stared at me blankly.

“K, Kaine, are you okay?”

“Huh? Ah~ Are you talking about the duel?”

At my words, Eileen shook her head.

Huh? What are you talking about then?

As I was wondering, the constellation sent me a message filled with concern.

[The Goddess of Fate asks if you’re really going to eat that.]

“Ka, Kaine, can you actually eat that food called ramen? I heard it’s extremely spicy. And the side dish is famous for being overly hot too.”

“Oh….”

Why? Damn. What’s wrong with ramen?

In this game world, ramen and kimchi might be considered spicy.

It’s natural since people here mainly eat greasy food, unlike Koreans.

Of course, I’m sure Kaine’s body will find it very spicy.

But what can I do? Honestly, after eating greasy food all the time, who wouldn’t want to eat ramen?

I nodded at her concern and picked up the ramen with my chopsticks.

-Slurp!

Damn. Is this how Kage felt when she ate something delicious after a long time?

Of course, I’m not crying now, but I was overwhelmed with emotion. Eileen looked at me with a curious expression.

What’s up? Do you want a bite?

“Do you want a bite?”

“Yes, yes.”

Eileen looked a little guilty, so I put a little bit of ramen on a separate plate and handed it to her with chopsticks.

Eileen, who had only eaten one bite, swept her hair behind her ear and ate it with a fork, blowing on it.

-Munch, munch.

After eating, two seconds passed.

“….?! Ugh! Ugh! Ah! Uu!!!”

Her face turned red like an apple, and a drop of sweat trickled down her forehead. She made strange noises that no human could make.

Huh, this is the reaction of people who can’t handle spicy food when they eat something spicy.

Eileen looked at me with wide eyes, surprised that I was eating ramen without any problem.

“….Ugh! Ugh! Mu, muu water!”

The ramen was so spicy that she urgently asked for water and hit my chest.

Ouch! Stop hitting me, it hurts!

I didn’t want to get hit anymore, so I quickly brought her some water.

-Gulp, gulp!

She drank the water I gave her in one go and looked at me in surprise.

“Um, why is it so spicy?”

“It’s not that spicy, one bite”

“one bite?”

She didn’t understand what I meant and tilted her head to the side.

“Oh, it’s nothing. People who steal a bite of someone else’s food are usually called ‘one bite.’”

“Huh?!”

Eileen looked blank for a moment after hearing my explanation, but soon her body started to tremble.

“Ugh!”

…Hmm, it seems like teasing her is quite fun?

I feel like she would get along well with Kage.

So I continued to eat, adding a little bit of banter, thinking that this was better than sitting awkwardly with Eileen.

.

.

.

After finishing my meal, I arrived at the magic lecture hall for the afternoon.

“Then, listen to the lecture well, one bite!”

“Ugh! I’ll kill you!!”

Eileen finally exploded after being teased as ‘one bite’ so many times. She was so angry that her face turned red, and aura burst out of her body.

Damn. Let’s run away!

I thought that if I stayed, I might get beaten up, so I hurriedly entered the lecture hall and sat down in an empty seat, pretending to be relaxed.

But these guys are looking at me again.

As I looked around, all the students in the lecture hall were looking at me with the same question in their eyes, ‘Why are you here?’

Well, I guess there’s nothing I can do about this reaction.

If you think about the history of the David family, there has never been a descendant who learned magic. So it’s natural for them to be surprised that I, a descendant of the David family, am suddenly taking a magic lecture.

Well, I have to accept this.

To be honest, from their perspective, it’s like someone who has never seen a book before is going to write a novel.

Five minutes after I arrived, a female professor entered from the front door.

“Hello, everyone. I’m Sion, the magic lecture professor. Hmm. There are many familiar faces, but there are also quite a few new ones.”

Sion said this as she looked around and took attendance. Soon, it was my turn.

“Huh? Kaine?”

“Yes.”

Sion was surprised that I was taking the magic lecture and widened her eyes for a moment. But, like a good professor, she naturally started calling the next name.

After taking attendance, Sion continued.

“Well, since this is the first lecture and there are new students, I’ll just give you a basic introduction to magic and have you practice once, and then we’ll end the class.”

As she said this, Sion wrote ‘Mana’ in large letters on the blackboard.

“Mana is a power that magicians mainly possess, as you all know. They use this to cast spells.”

“But just releasing mana doesn’t necessarily mean you can cast a spell. Before casting, you need to imagine the spell, let the mana flow through the circuit, chant the incantation, and finally, the spell must be cast without any tangles in the formula.”

Hmm. That’s right.

Listening to Sion’s explanation, I understood why I couldn’t cast a spell until now.

I’ve never failed to let mana flow through the circuit.

The problem was that when I imagined the lowest-level spell in the game and chanted it, an awkward-looking formula appeared, but nothing happened.

So how do you prevent the formula from getting tangled?

As if reading my mind, Sion answered.

“Then, there will definitely be someone in the magic lecture who’s thinking, ‘How do you prevent the formula from getting tangled?’ There are various methods, but the simplest way is to memorize the formula of the spell in the book.”

“Then, as you chant, your brain will naturally and unconsciously remember the formula.”

The students, including me, who were hearing about the magic lecture for the first time, were all dumbfounded.

Is this for real. Is this a magic lecture?

To put it bluntly, if you want to use magic, just memorize the formula.

What’s the difference between this and memorizing the formula from a book?

In the end, it’s no different from telling you to memorize the formula from the book.

Well, there’s no better method than grinding.

But it’s so different from what I expected.

To be honest, I thought she would say something more impressive, but who would have known that she would explain it like a math class on Earth, telling us to memorize formulas?

As I was feeling absurd, a woman with silver long hair raised her hand and asked Sion a question.

“Then, can anyone use the highest-level magic if they memorize the formula?”

“Hmm. Well, basically, as the magic level increases, the formula becomes more complex. And the formula for the highest-level magic is so complex that it’s impossible to memorize. So usually, several people work together to cast the spell without tangling the formula.”

Sion smiled and continued.

“But even if you memorize it, the highest-level magic requires a lot of mana. In reality, if you combine the mana of all of us here, including me, using the highest-level magic once will be the limit.”

After Sion’s words, all the students swallowed their dry saliva.

Apparently, they didn’t know that the highest-level magic required so much mana.

As I listened to this detailed explanation, I realized how much of a monster Ange was.

Of course, divine magic and magic are fundamentally different, but the amount of mana consumed when using the highest-level skill is similar.

In other words, Anje poured the highest-level divine recovery on me without any difficulty, which means she has a sea of divine power within her.

As I was re-evaluating Ange, Sion erased the word ‘mana’ on the blackboard and said.

“Then, we’ll start practicing the lowest-level magic. Come up one by one as I call your name.”
