Chapter 14: Crisis? There is no such thing

The blonde loli’s eyes were blazing with fire, glaring angrily at me.

“Then can you explain why things turned out like this???”

…Why did things turn out like this… let’s turn back time…

About two hours ago…

I remember I was still in the sewer being ‘played with’ by Aisilis, and then I inexplicably fainted.

By the time I woke up, it was already evening, and I was lying in bed.

Based on the sounds coming from the bathroom, I determined that Aisilis was taking a bath at the time.

Then, for the reason of caring for a patient, I decided to go and check on the still-unconscious Liya.

Because I was a little thirsty, I went to the kitchen to pour a glass of water, and then came to Liya’s bedside.

Then, I happily spilled the water, and it all spilled on Liya. Afraid that she would catch a cold, I wanted to change her clothes.

But Aisilis was taking a shower, so I had to undress her first. Perhaps because of the water spilling on her, Liya woke up.

Coincidentally, Aisilis just finished her shower and happened to pass by the door of Liya’s room.

Thus, this scene was born… A black-haired boy was putting his hands on the blonde’s chest to unbutton her clothes, and the buttons of the clothes had been unbuttoned for most of the time, revealing the blonde’s chest.

The blonde looked at the black-haired boy with a blank face.

At this time, a dark-blue-haired girl wearing only a black bikini happened to witness this scene outside…

Aisilis flew into a rage at that moment…

With a clench of her hand in the air, she summoned a black greatsword… swung it at Liya, and shouted,

“Die, you stinking b*tch who seduced Yuren!!!”

And so… I started dodging and hiding around the house with Liya…

The above is what just happened and our current situation.

Mmm, I won’t say anything else for now, but regarding the part where I tried to take off Liya’s clothes… I suspect my brain was waterlogged at the time.

And this coincidental plot development… isn’t this exactly like those harem protagonists who can trip and fall for no reason while walking down the street, and then fall on some girl, triggering a fanservice scene?

“Sigh… for some reason… my heart suddenly feels so tired.”

“Hah?? If you have time for that, you should be thinking of a way to solve this! I don’t want to be chopped in half by Lady Aisilis!”

Squinting, I looked at the young girl lying prone beside me.

“I have a question.”

“?”

“Why do you call Aisilis ‘Lady’?”

“Are you an idiot? Because Lady Aisilis is the strongest in the academy… Not only is she beautiful, but her strength has always been number one in the academy. Among us juniors, Lady Aisilis is very popular… she even has a fan club in the academy dedicated to her… Hmph hmph~ I’m a member of this fan club, you know~ It’s not so easy for ordinary people to get in. I had to go through a lot of trouble to join this club back then.”

“I-is that so… I never thought Aisilis would be so popular in the academy… it’s a bit beyond my expectations.”

“Of course… the people pursuing Lady Aisilis in the academy can line up from the school gate to the back door… well… but Lady Aisilis is always cold to everyone… It’s said that besides Lady Aisilis’s mentor, no one in the academy has ever spoken more than three sentences with her.”

“Eh? I never knew Aisilis was like that in the academy… I can’t tell at all when she’s at home… By the way, the teacher you mentioned just now is?”

“Everyone in the academy has an exclusive mentor. Usually, one mentor leads several students at the same time, but there are exceptions. Someone like Lady Aisilis has a private mentor. I remember… Lady Aisilis’s mentor should be… Teacher Komia…”

“Komia… huh.”

A long-lost memory surfaced… a red-haired elf appeared in my mind…

“But is it really okay for us to be chatting here? I feel like we’ve forgotten something.”

“?”

‘Ding~’

With a crisp sound… the bed we were hiding under… was split in half down the middle…

“Yuren❤, so you were hiding here~ How naughty. Well then… let me clean up this trash that seduced Yuren first, and then I’ll have a good talk with you, Yuren~~”

Looking at the young girl before me, with a bewitching smile on her face and an overwhelmingly powerful aura, I couldn’t help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.

So dangerous… both Aisilis herself and what she just said are so dangerous.

Liya was already so scared she was hiding behind me. I could feel her body trembling non-stop…

It seems… now is the time for a sacrifice…

“I’ll hold Aisilis back. You get out of here first.”

I whispered to Liya behind me.

“Oh my? Are you planning to stand in my way for this b*tch, Yuren? Not allowed~ I will eliminate all obstacles that stand in the way of my and Yuren’s happiness… Even you, Yuren~, cannot become an obstacle to our happiness.”

Looking at this young girl before me, with empty eyes and a black aura emanating from her entire body… I felt a trace of fear.

All this time, I had only thought of Aisilis’s love for me as a nostalgic attachment and dependence from childhood.

Even her confession back then… was mostly due to the circumstances and the atmosphere of the moment.

I never expected that Aisilis’s love for me had reached such a pathological level.

“Now, now~ Yuren, hurry up and get out of the way. After I dispose of this trash… I’ll turn you back into the usual Yuren… so…”

Before she could finish her sentence… Aisilis suddenly disappeared…

The hairs on my body stood up in an instant. My years of living in the wild had given me a sharp intuition for danger…

“Danger!!!”

‘Boom!!!’

With that, I pulled Liya and dove to the side.

Just as we moved, a deafening, explosion-like sound erupted from where Liya had been standing, and a shockwave blasted outwards from its center.

Everything in the room was sent flying in all directions by the shockwave…

I shielded Liya with my body, pressing all my weight down to keep from being blown away by the shockwave…

Finally, the shockwave ended. The room… no… the entire house was in ruins… covered everywhere with dust.

“Cough cough… cough… is this the power of a swordsman?”

Liya and I got to our feet… and looked around.

It was as if someone had set off TNT inside the house…

Not a single room was intact. The furniture, like thin paper, had been shattered to pieces in the shockwave…

But it was obvious that Aisilis had held back, probably out of consideration for me.

Otherwise… the power of a 13th-rank Grand Swordmaster should be more than just this.

“Tsk… Yuren, I told you not to get in my way. Why won’t you listen?”

A voice came from within the dust…

Slowly, the dust began to settle, and a young girl holding a greatsword appeared in the center of the room.

At her feet was a deep, sunken crater…

“Hey, hey, hey… Aisilis, if this is a joke, you’ve taken it a bit too far…”

“A joke? What are you talking about, Yuren? I’m just cleaning up some trash. On the contrary, Yuren… if you’re going to joke, you should pick a better time.”

Feeling Liya trembling behind me… I could clearly sense her fear.

“So… Yuren… leave that woman… come over here… and let me clean up this trash.”

“Are you serious? Aisilis.”

My tone began to harden. I swear, I have never been this serious in my entire life.

“Is Yuren angry? For… this woman… For this woman… Yuren is angry at me… for this woman… Yuren is angry at me… for this woman…”

Aisilis kept repeating this sentence with a vacant look in her eyes…

I looked at the trembling Liya behind me.

“Liya, get out of here…”

“B-but…”

“Don’t worry, I’ll be fine.”

I turned my head and smiled at Liya.

I don’t know why… but looking at the smiling young man before her… Liya felt a blind confidence in him…

“You’d better not get into trouble… pervert…”

After whispering this… Liya left the room… and ran out into the street…

“Eh???”

Aisilis seemed to be looking at me in shock.

“No… no… that smile… that smile… the smile that, since we were little, was only for me… the smile that belonged only to me… and now Yuren is giving it to another woman… NO!!!”

Aisilis clutched her head and shouted… tears streaming down her face…

“Hey… Aisilis…”

Faced with this scene, I was at a complete loss, not knowing what to do…

“Yuren… has been defiled… by that woman… even though he belongs only to me… Yuren… has been defiled by that woman.”

Aisilis clutched her head, muttering something.

“Unforgivable… unforgivable… unforgivable… absolutely unforgivable…”

“Yuren… belongs to me… only to me…”

Aisilis suddenly lifted her head… her expression savage as she let out a loud roar…

Looking at this Aisilis, whom I didn’t recognize… I was shocked…

People often say… only in times of emergency… do people reveal their true nature…

So… is this Aisilis’s true nature…

She was always acting like a good little girl in front of me.

I never thought Aisilis would be like this…

But… this is all because of me…

Then… let me be the one to end all of this…
