Avoid Yandere Constellation

Chapter 34

Its normal for a person to be intimidated by an opponent who is stronger than them.

However, Kane had his own experience on Earth, so he was not intimidated and stared at Benjamin.

Benjamin too, found himself quite surprised to see Kane not intimidated by him.

Hmph. Let me ask you a question. Did you know I was coming?

Well, given your brothers personality, Im pretty sure everyone knew hed be calling you like a little b**ch he is.

As if expecting Benjamins question, Kane didnt miss an opportunity to mock.

The sudden insults to his brother and calling him a b**ch made veins appear on Ortins forehead.

Youd better watch your mouth. Or you much never be able to utter a word.

Look at the way youre getting all flushed from hearing the facts, you a**ehole.

As Kane finished speaking, Benjamin kicked his feet, veins sprouting even more as he lunged at him with his fist.

-Whoosh!

Kane dodges it with a sideways twist, as if he knew it was coming, and then throws a return kick.

Benjamins eyes widened as he saw the attack.

Dodging and counterattacking?

I deliberately used less force in the first place to keep him at bay, but I expected him to dodge. Heck, even counterattack.

I parried Kanes return kick with a raised hand. I stepped back for a moment.

What the hell is this guy?

Ive heard rumors that hes gotten stronger. But this

Too strong?

Surely the attack he threw just now could not be dodged by most first years. No, dodging is not the problem.

Dodging is one thing.

Its the counterattack thats troubling.

Its as if Kane knew this was what he was going to do, turning his body halfway around before throwing his fist.

Lets see it again.

Benjamin swung his fist at Kane, who remained motionless, and watched him closely.

-Whoosh!

He ducked his head backwards to avoid the blow, and brought his fist up to strike again.

-Punch!

A solid blow to the jaw shook Benjamins vision for a moment, but he gathered his wits: I cant go easy on him.

Benjamin drew his wooden sword from his subspace ring. Kane released his magic in response. At the same time, blue energy slowly enveloped Kanes body.

Benjamin narrowed his eyes at the physical enhancement.

I guess it wasnt just a rumour that you learned magic.

Why, are you scared like your little b**ch brother? Why dont you come at me? Werent you so confident?

Kane grinned sheepishly and raised his finger in the air.

Seeing this, Benjamin glared at him and kicked the ground as he ran towards him, and Kane did the same.

And just like that, their attacks clashed.

Meanwhile, that time.

Most of the students watching the duel swallowed hard.

Hey. Is that the same Kane who was a j*rk?

NoI dont know. I remember he was pretty weak in the first term.

What the hell has he been training for over the holidays?

Something like that.

The students were talking to each other in surprise. Kim Soo-yong crossed his arms and watched Kanes movements.

Kane counterattacks, dodging all of Ortins attacks with ease. Its as if he could see this coming.

What kind of futuristic vision is this?

However, according to what Ive heard from Constellations, such feats are almost impossible for even a transcendent.

It makes no sense for a mere mortal, Kane, to see the future.

Well, that aside, hmm. By the way, I never thought Id turn down help.

In fact, when he saw Benjamin at the training grounds, he offered to be Kanes substitute to repay his debt.

However, Kane flatly refused, saying that it was something he must do himself.

After all, it was rumored that his character was broken in the first semester, but here he is completely different.

With that thought, he watched as Kane overpowered Benjamin.

***

Jenny, what do you think?

Uh, yes. I think Kane will win at this rate.

Eileen nodded in agreement with Jennys words.

By the way, I didnt expect him to be so strong.

Honestly, I knew Kane was different, but I never thought hed be able to overwhelm a senior with a single blow.

-Punch!

Ugh!

I still am.

As if he knew all of Ortins attack patterns, Kane sidesteps with ease and breaks his wooden sword.

While Eileen admires his physical enhancement. Jenny looks over at her, a smirk on her face.

Eileen. Your eyes are just dripping with honey.

What? no! I was just analysing Kanes movements because I was interested in them!

Jenny smirks in amusement at Eileens pouting.

By the way, what are you going to do after this fight?

Huh? What mean?

Wow did you just forget? Kane lied to Ogtin about being engaged to you.

Oh.

Id forgotten about that while I was admiring Kanesnot-so-gorgeous movements. But why did he lie like that?

As Eileen paused, unable to comprehend, Jenny spoke up with a serious face.

Eileen, I dont know why Kane would lie like that, but this is your chance.

A chance?

Yeah. Think about it. Kane owes you a favour right now.

Definitelyright.

Ogtin doesnt know that she and Kane have broken up, but he should have told the truth.

But instead of telling him the truth, Kane accepts the offer.

In other words, he used Eileen to tell a lie. Jenny nods as she watches.

So youre telling me to use this debt to my advantage?

Thats right.

Use it for what?

Jenny spoke, keeping her voice as low as possible so no one would hear her. Eileen looked a little embarrassed when she heard that.

But can I?

Absolutely. Honestly, that might be a good thing, and did I tell you? Maybe Kane actually accepted Ogtins offer because he wants to get engaged to you again?

I wanted to nod at Jennys words, but after being dumped twice, I couldnt say yes.

I dont think so, but the idea you mentioned is definitely a good one.

Isnt it?

Uh.

With that, their gazes shifted back to Ortin, who was taking a beating on the training field.

***

The students werent the only ones surprised by Kanes movements. Riche turned to Skaya with a perplexed expression.

Skaya-sama, what kind of training have you been doing?

Hmmm. Just some physical and mental training.

Other than that

Kane had grown too much. In fact, I knew how much Kane had grown over the holidays.

Which made me even more baffled than the students around me. What on earth had happened in a week to make him grow so much?

As of opening day, Kanes strength was middle of or below average in the academic rankings. His stamina and strength are undeniable, but those are the only two things that are outstanding.

Thats it, no more, no less.

But right now, his movements were becoming overpowering against an opponent who was more experienced and more skillful than him, even if he had used physical enhancement.

Just as Riche looks a bit serious and deep in thought, Cage, standing next to her, throws out a fist and cheers loudly.

YES! Master, you shouldnt throw your fist out like that!!! Be more precise!

At her exclamation, the students around her perk up like theyve spotted a cute puppy.

Embarrassed by her behavior, Riche fed her honey balm to the top of Cages head.

-Bam!

Ackk!

The students around her looked away as if they hadnt seen anything. Cage rubbed the bump on her head with both hands, and a tear fell from her eye.

WHY? I was just cheering.

Do It quietly. Its disturbing to those around you.

I dont think so Master dont lose.

Riche gave her a fierce glare, and Cage quickly changed her attitude. And quietly cheered for Kane.

Go for It MasterKick his a**e.

With a satisfied smile, Riche turned to Skaya.

So, Skaya-Sama, who do you think will win?

Hmm. From the looks of it, I think Kane has the upper handI dont know, I think its going to come down to how long he can maintain his physical enhancements.

I see.

Ahhh?

As the surrounding students reacted in surprise, both of them shifted their gaze to the training ground. The timing was perfect as Kane reached his physical limit.

*Rough breathing*

Haha. Looks like youre finally reaching your limits.

The corner of Benjamins mouth lifted as he steadied his breathing.

Now it was my turn.

Of course, Benjamin has taken quite a beating from him, but hes still less exhausted than Kane, whos been strengthening himself.

Benjamin wipes the blood from the corner of his mouth with his arm. His gaze shifts to Kane.

Hes relatively clean, unlike himself, but hes clearly exhausted, as evidenced by the sweat running down his forehead.

With no physical enhancements, his stamina is even more exhausted than mine. My body is wounded, but not beyond endurance.

Benjamin drew a new wooden sword from his subspace ring, exposing his white teeth.

Here we go. Now its time to be trained. Junior.

Kane responded to Benjamins words with a silent smile. Benjamin thought that there was no point in getting angrier here, so he kept his cool and swung his sword horizontally.

-Whoosh!

Despite being quite wounded and exhausted, his attack was still quite sharp.

Kane narrowly ducked his head back to avoid it, realizing the danger of being hit at this rate.

Unfortunately, he was too exhausted to fight back. Seeing that, Benjamin was convinced.

Hes definitely exhausted.

If he keeps going like this, this could be a long fight. Ill make him pay for what hes done to me so far!

One corner of his mouth lifted, imagining his next move. Kane raised his hand to block it.

I felt it in my hand. It worked.

Kane blocked with his hand, but with his already exhausted body, it would have done a lot of damage.

Benjamin thinks he got him, so he withdraws his sword and swings again.

What the hell, why doesnt he move?

He grabs the sword with all his might and tries to pull back, but he doesnt budge. I sense something is amiss and shift my gaze to Kane.

Hes grimly gripping his own wooden sword. Thats not the problem, the real problem is

Whats going on? What happened? Why is he recovering? Is it an artifact?

Benjamin glanced at William for a moment, puzzled by the situation.

William looked at Ortin and said.

Not Foul. Continue with the match.

Hearing that, Benjamin bit his lower lip hard.

Hes going to lose if he stays like this.

Thinking this was my last chance, I clenched my other hand into a fist and was about to punch him.

Grrr!

Suddenly, my vision spun around. I lifted my upper body to see what had happened. He must have been hit, because he was lying on the ground.

As Benjamin was momentarily stunned by the unsuspected attack, Kane looked down at him and raised one corner of his mouth.

Dont be so bitter. You and I have different times.
