High-Class Mob

Chapter 36: This is the real world

The Resting Area of the Academy was near the Plaza. In the resting area, one can find the aroma of the flowers too be alluring and have a calming effect filling the air. The shades provided by the trees with the lighting from the sunlight piercing through.

It was a place frequented by lovers to each lunch. However, at the moment, in the place where it should be swarming with couples, trying to find reasons why they should be touching each other, there were little to no couples around and those who were present were deciding to leave.

The air is no longer light. Heaviness pervaded the air despite the green light of Healing Magic illuminating the area.

“Who did this!? Tell me?” Mina’s voice was filled with rage. Her eyes were different from normal, the signs of a Yandere being brought on the edge is now appearing. A pair of lifeless eyes stared at Colt as if she was ready to commit something one would not dream of committing.

In the world of stories; mostly in the realm of novels, mangas, and animes there is one force that everyone fears most – the deranged people and to be more specific, the psychos who go to great lengths in order to prove their love.

The Yandere, a genre beloved by thousands if not millions are something everyone treats with a line. Loving a yandere is only accepted if it is inside a story, in a fictional world where life cannot be taken.

In the world of anime or any fictional platform, a lady massacring an army for the ones they love is accepted and is seen as fateful. But on earth, others will see them as someone who needs to be killed.

A woman who abandons her reality for the one she loves is someone who is seen as devoted, but others see it as crazy.

All-in-all, there is one bottom line that appears, one must not bring craziness to the real world. It is fun to read, but not when it is experienced. The lives that will be killed for reasons other than to fuel the rampage of a Yandere is not something one would appreciate to watch in the real world.

In most circumstances, Colt, no, Leo would be up for it if Mina would go on a rampage. But he can’t have that; he can’t have her dealing with his troubles and getting into trouble for it.

She can’t kill so easily in this world. She is meant to be a villain and he does not wish for Mina to be one.

If she is ready to kill for him, that is not something he wishes to exploit. Because if he exploits the fact, she would do anything for him in exchange for love, then that is not what Colt sees as a relationship of two lovers, but an abusive asshole taking advantage of someone.

He does not want to end up as a man of that caliber. If he has the to choose, he wishes to become the one who protects his woman, not the other way around. If he tells her the names of the men then that’s it, there is no going back.

This is his real-world now for all he cares and the consequences of killing in this world may be lighter, it was still killing. And somewhere along the line, if that triggers something within Mina and makes her think, “I will kill for his sake…” then her killing him and avoiding the route where she turns to a villain will be all for naught.

He does not want to see Mina end her future for his sake. He will forge his own future and his own path in life.

For Colt, his path is somewhere along the line of Mina, Filla, his family, and him living snuggly without a care in the world. And he can’t have that if Mina is misled in life.

Thus, as his arms healed and he could properly move and get a grasp of his core strength again. Colt did what is the best thing he should do in this situation and have his hands sandwich Mina’s face.

Mina’s cheeks were squished as her mouth slightly opened. She jumped in surprise and the light and life in her eyes returned.

“What are you doing!?” She asked in confusion.

“Heehee, did the dark thoughts in your head disappear? I wish it did.” He showed her a broad smile that caused the dark atmosphere around her to disappear, “Come on, show me a smile, I like seeing your smiles rather than seeing you act all angry for me.”

“Bat…jey hertch yoo.” Mina tried to speak with her face mushed by Colt, but as she spoke, she found it rather hard and hearing her try her hardest to justify her actions with her words being borderline incomprehensible.

At first, she was struggling to get away from Colt’s grasps, but as time moves forward and she got tired of arguing with Colt, Mina stopped fighting it altogether.

With Colt kneading Mina’s cheeks, he asked her, “Are you okay now?”

Mina nodded her head like a child and Colt released her from his grasps. Staring at Colt, Mina still showed signs of not giving up.

Colt sighed, of course, it is not that easy to calm someone like her.

“Don’t worry, I didn’t sustain any irrecoverable damage.”

“But, I do not want to see my darling getting hurt. When I think about such things happening…I, I feel the urge to do something untoward to the onesh caushes iht.”

Pup!

Colt resumed kneading her cheeks as she neared going off again. She calmed down and she took in a deep breath.

After regaining her freedom from Colt’s attacks to her cheeks, Mina jumped back as she retreated. Like a crouching chinchilla rubbing its cheeks, Mina playfully glared at Colt as she pouted her lips.

“Don’t touch my cheeks like that…pu, my husband is bullying me.” Mina made a fiercer glare as her cheeks puffed up in rage.

Colt approached her and he too crouched on the ground, he ruffled her smooth and soft hair as he said, “Please spare this foolish husband of yours for I was tempted by the softness of your cheeks…and can I please get some foods, I was in fierce battle just now and it feels like I would die from hunger at any second now.”

“Oh, we cannot have that, please wait a minute, I shall prepare the food.”

Colt looked at Mina who was heading to get some food and little did he know, as she walked past the three trees forward, she said something.

“Do something to him and I will make the life of the one you are serving a living hell. You both have aura and my dear husband don’t, I do not know what he did but if I am to cripple you both right now and say it is for self-defense, no one will question me.”

This was the first time Mina showed someone her fangs. Though her voice was as sweet as always, and her face still carried her signature happy smile, her words contained daggers behind it.

Her words were direct, for she knew this is the best way to do things.

“If not for the fact he talked me down to it, I would have ended you both already.”

As she continued to speak as she moved, she heard someone asks.

“Then, what do you want for us to do? He hit our Young Miss on the face, do you think we can just let that go?”

“Stop taking it off context, my husband is a man whose heart is as kind as he is open, he does not wish to get into trouble and he does not simply act violently for nothing. But don’t worry, I will meet the Young Miss myself, try to say anything else and I will end this conversation now.”

“…”

“Good, then tell her this. I will meet her in the Training Hall 3.”

The presence of the two disappeared as Mina finished her speech.

‘It seems like I won’t be able to go home with my husband…such a shame.’

Their lunchtime was well spent after all the troubles. They flirted as they ate, and Mina managed to convince Colt to head home for now, or else, she will be going to the trouble of going to find the one who hit him.

Colt naturally agreed as he does not wish to see any bloodshed.

It would seem that even Mina is learning how to treat Colt like Colt is learning how to treat her.

But Colt made sure to say that he will be going somewhere important along the way and Mina didn’t stop him from doing what he wants.

She will know what will happen in the city anyway.

As Mina saw Colt’s carriage disappear, she began walking with grace towards the direction of Training Hall 3.

While walking she remembered something of importance, ‘I need to visit that smithy next.’

After thinking as such, Mina found herself at Training Hall 3 face to face with Mary and as she saw her, Mina creased her brows.

“So, it was you after all.”

She already knew who Mary was.
