It had been about three weeks since my date with the Constellation.

During that time, not much had happened.

[The Goddess of Fate wants to descend!]

Lately, the Constellation has been unable to control her desires and has been descending frequently.

Or rather, she’s been acting up a lot lately.

As long as she doesn’t cause any major trouble, it’s not a big deal.

‘But it still feels ominous.’

For some reason, I feel like I’m getting closer to the bad ending where I die of a heart attack.

A future where I’m kidnapped by her and forced to do things in the same bed.

It’s not unreasonable to have such thoughts.

After all, that’s how the game ends.

I feel like I’ve developed PTSD because of those damn game developers.

If I ever see them, I’ll…

As a keyboard warrior, I’ll type with my fingers flying, and as a talker, I’ll talk their ears off. I’ll even punch them like a punching machine.

As I was cursing the developers in my mind,

“Kaine?”

Skaya looked up at me with a concerned expression.

With a worried tone, she continued,

“Is something bothering you?”

“Huh? No…”

“Skaya, how long are you going to hold Kaine’s hand?”

Eileen interrupted, asking with a jealous tone.

She glared at our hands with her beady eyes.

“Huh? No, I’m not used to it yet! I’ll keep holding hands until I get used to it! It’s homework given by the Great Sage!”

“…”

At her words, Eileen narrowed her eyes and looked at her suspiciously.

It was as if she was looking at a child who had stolen something and was lying about it.

Instinctively realizing that this couldn’t continue, Skaya looked off into the distance and awkwardly changed the subject.

“Oh, by the way, Kaine. The Great Sage gave us homework, and I was wondering… How’s your progress with the magic he taught you, aside from the couple magic?”

“Well, I’ve been practicing a little bit.”

In fact, it was more than just a little bit.

Unlike Skaya, I already knew the magic that the Great Sage had taught me.

After all, it was a hidden skill in the game.

Of course, I needed to see the incantation in the book to use it.

‘The important thing is whether I can use it or not.’

It’s only a matter of time before the incantation is imprinted in my brain.

There’s nothing I can do about it right now.

Even if I wanted to force it into my brain, the incantation is too complex.

As I was thinking this, Skaya spoke with a slightly frustrated tone.

“Hmm, I need to finish it quickly so I can teach you magic.”

Unlike me, Skaya hadn’t fully activated the magic that the Great Sage had taught her.

Her image implementation wasn’t perfect yet.

However,

‘She’s already imprinted the incantations in her brain.’

That’s right.

While I needed to look at the book to activate the magic, she had already mastered all but a few of them.

What a genius!

Moreover, she didn’t even need to chant the incantation.

She just had to snap her fingers.

As Skaya and I were talking, Eileen puffed out her cheeks, not fitting in with the stiff atmosphere.

“Excuse me, but could you not have private conversations?”

“Oh, yeah. Sorry.”

Skaya scratched her head awkwardly.

Just as she was about to speak, Kim Soo-yong approached us from a distance with a serious expression.

Hmm, is it that time again?

“Kaine, can I talk to you alone?”

At his question, I looked at Skaya, who was holding my hand…

‘…?!’

When did she start holding my other hand?

As I looked at Eileen, who was holding my other hand without my knowledge, Skaya smiled kindly.

“From your expression, it seems like you want to have a serious conversation. Go ahead.”

Eileen also said it was fine.

“Kaine, go ahead.”

Is this really asking me to go?

The way they’re speaking, it seems like it’s fine for me to go.

But I can’t shake the feeling that the atmosphere is the opposite of what they’re saying.

Am I just imagining things?

[The Goddess of Fate is telling you that those girls are telling you not to go.]

As I expected, they were using irony.

Normally, I would refuse Kim Soo-yong’s proposal, but…

‘Since it’s related to the original story, I have no choice.’

I quickly calculated in my head and answered without hesitation.

“Okay, I’ll go. I’ll be back soon. Wait for me.”

So, I went with Kim Soo-yong to the back of the main building, where there were no students.

At the same time, I turned up the volume.

“Let’s secretly follow them, Eileen.”

“Yes, let’s do that, Skaya.”

The two of them whispered as if they were having a secret conversation.

They didn’t realize that I had intentionally set up this situation.

.

.

.

As I followed Kim Soo-yong, we finally arrived at our destination.

When he realized that there was no one else around, he began to speak.

“Do you remember Ward, the spy sent by the cult?”

“Yeah, I’m the one who caught him.”

“Yeah, that’s right. Anyway, as I mentioned before, among the information he revealed, we found the location of one of their branches.”

“Hmm.”

It’s the same as the original story, except that Eileen isn’t here.

In the original story, at this time, the three of them, along with Eileen and some professors, raided the cult’s branch based on the information they got from Ward.

They were supposed to take care of the branch leader, right?

The boss of this episode is the branch leader.

They are called sub-executives of the cult and hold a relatively high position.

For a normal person, raiding the place where the branch leader is located is impossible.

After all, the branch is filled with cult members, including the branch leader.

However,

‘It’s impossible to win against the characters from the original story.’

Rain, who became a saint after awakening,

Kim Soo-yong, the isekai protagonist in the game,

Burke, who is his rival,

Eileen, the genius of the Elijah family.

At this point, it’s reasonable to suspect that the game developers sent those characters because they didn’t like the branch leader.

Otherwise, there’s no reason to send them.

But that’s not the important part.

“So, you want me to go with you?”

“That’s right. In a way, you’ve also been wronged by the cult, haven’t you?”

I think they’ve been wronged more than me.

“Well, I’ve had a few near-death experiences. So, when are we going to raid them?”

“Tomorrow.”

Hmm, tomorrow.

Indeed, tomorrow is the weekend.

On that day, both students and professors will be free.

It’s not a bad idea, but…

[The Goddess of Fate can’t descend tomorrow.]

Because that damn goddess has been descending frequently, I won’t be able to get her help tomorrow.

Unfortunately, her last descent ended just a few hours ago.

[The Goddess of Fate is sorry ㅠㅠ]

The Constellation apologizes, aware that she made a mistake.

But it’s fine.

According to the original story, this is just a filler episode.

Kim Soo-yong and his team should be able to handle it without any problems.

It’s a shame that Ange can’t be dispatched to ask for help.

However, even without Ange and the Constellation, it should be enough if things go according to my plan.

‘Especially since I know the original story, it’ll be a massacre.’

“Okay, I’ll go too.”

“Wait!”

“Just a moment!”

The two women answered instead of Kim Soo-yong.

They spoke urgently.

“If Kaine is going, we want to go too!”

“Yes, if Kaine is going, we will follow.”

Huh, so my plan is working out?

To be honest, I had anticipated this to some extent when Kim Soo-yong asked to talk to me privately.

I expected him to invite me to join him.

Otherwise, there’s no reason for him to call me alone.

Knowing this in advance, I ignored their pressure and accepted his invitation.

That way, they would secretly follow us.

What happened next was obvious.

The two of them have feelings for me.

Of course, I don’t dislike them either.

‘But that’s not the important part.’

If I go, they’ll definitely follow.

I intentionally led them to follow us secretly.

That way, they could listen to Kim Soo-yong and my conversation.

Kim Soo-yong also seemed to pretend not to notice.

“Hmm, I don’t mind. What about you, Kim Soo-yong?”

“Well, if these two are coming, it’ll be great. We don’t need to talk about their skills.”

Yeah, that’s true.

The two of them are stronger than in the original story.

I can guarantee that with their current skills, no other students, except for Kim Soo-yong, can beat them.

Even Kim Soo-yong can’t be sure of winning against them.

Kim Soo-yong nodded and agreed.

“I want to go too! Honey♥”

Suddenly, Lisanna appeared with a cute voice, as if she had been listening to our conversation.

And she was with my sister, who doesn’t get along with her.

‘What? Them?!’

I was sure that there was no one else around except for Eileen and Skaya.

I had already turned up the volume, so there was no way they could have been nearby.

‘Then how did they hear our conversation?’

As I was trying to understand,

[It’s clear that the Goddess of War, who loves fighting, informed her.]

Damn.

That makes sense.

Recently, the damn Constellation has been descending frequently, so it’s not surprising that the other goddesses have taken an interest in me.

After all, I see her every day when she descends.

“…”

“…”

Silence fell between Kim Soo-yong and me.

Kim Soo-yong looked at me, as if asking me to make the decision.

Hey, weren’t you the one who invited me?

“First, ask the professors. For Eileen and Skaya they will probably agree, but I don’t know about the others.”

“Okay, I understand.”

In fact, while for Willy they might not agree some professors and Rain know that Lisanna is a saint, so they’ll probably agree.

Kim Soo-yong quickly left the place as if he was running away.

What’s going on? Why is he walking so fast?

As I tilted my head, wondering if something was wrong,

-Spark!

A spark-like thing flew in the air.

I turned my head to see Eileen, Skaya, and Lisanna’s eyes colliding in the air.

At the same time,

-Squeeze! Squeeze!

Willy, who was hiding behind me, pulled on my sleeve.

It seemed like she wanted us to leave this place quickly.

I nodded to meet her expectations.

“Willy and I will go home now. Take care.”

With that, we quickly left the place where a disaster was about to happen.

.

.

.

The next day.

I had finished all the preparations.

Along with Willy, who had gotten permission from the professors, I headed to the meeting place.

There, in addition to the members from the original story, Lisanna and Skaya were waiting.

‘It seems like Professor Willliam and Professor Sion will join us.’

Since those two have experience working with Kim Soo-yong’s team, it’s not a bad choice.

But this isn’t some kind of Avengers Assemble.

With the current members, it’s not an exaggeration to say that we’re going to destroy a few families, not just raid the cult’s branch.

That’s because the members gathered here are too powerful.

There are two saints, one isekai person, three people called geniuses, two Royal Academy professors, and finally, me, who is the most perfect among them.

The last part might make me feel a little guilty, but…

Anyway, with these members, we should be able to destroy the cult’s branch and more.

Even if the cult succeeds in demon possession without Andrew’s knowledge, it won’t make a difference.

Of course, it’s a different story if a top-tier demon appears.

‘But a top-tier demon isn’t just a passing dog.’

The demon that Ashard possessed was at most a high-tier one.

Even if Ashard, a sub-executive, summoned a high-tier demon, it’s unlikely that a branch leader would be able to summon a top-tier demon.

Especially since the incantation isn’t even complete yet.

‘But that won’t happen.’

In the original story, it takes a while for the incantation to be completed at this point.

So, there’s no need to worry.

Although the butterfly effect is a bit annoying.

‘I’ve never been involved with them, so the butterfly effect probably won’t happen.’

As I thought this, I walked with the group towards the cult’s branch, which would soon be destroyed.
