Avoid Yandere Constellation

Chapter 10: Legitimate business (1)



[The goddess who sees destiny says it’s pathetic.]

Kuu! Stop peaking..!!

But I can’t help it. Right now I’m in such a good mood that I want to celebrate.

After all..

David von Kane

Age: 20 years old.

Characteristics: game-setting ability, death regression.

Talents: none.

Points: 1,000.

He gained 1,000 points by avoiding death this time.

He supposedly only earned 500 points, but suddenly he was even given the Hidden Quest to complete.

The content of that quest was not significant. However, it said that if he avoided death at the same time as catching Birg, he would be given an additional 500 points.

This makes it sound like not only avoiding, but also giving extra points for doing a regression.

It could be a coincidence, but there doesn’t seem to be any harm in referring to it.

Anyway, this is sweet.

Frankly, I felt a bit down inside, losing 500 points, which is the same as my life against a Birg, but the system understood that I felt that way and gave me an extra point for frowning.

And this is not all.

Now a quest appeared in front of me.

[Quest occurs – make money!]

[Description: now you have lost all support from your family. If you stay still, you may get another death flag. Do your best to earn a steady income.”]

[Time limit: 48 hours.]

[Reward: 500 points ].

How can I not like this?

Of course, if I mess up badly, I can get a death flag like yesterday’s dog, but frankly, as a person who is a veteran of this game, a quest like that is a piece of cake for me.

In fact, this Quest is no different from telling me to eat 500 points for free.

So, then, I need to plan my business now. I closed my eyes and recalled everything I knew about the game.

Half an hour has passed.

Kuu!. I am pressed.

Many methods come to mind. I can recall countless ways to be bathed in money if I wanted to.

But .

They all require initial funding, crazy.

I rummaged through my pockets for a while.

The only thing in my pockets was air. There was nothing else at all.

Still, I went through every desk drawer in the room, the bed, the pillows, the other clothes, just to be sure.

But there was nothing that looked remotely usable but fountain pens, alcohol, all this sort of thing. In addition, of course, I had no money.

You crazy! Kane!!!

Normally, a ruffian like him would have plenty of money, but all he has is alcohol.

Why don’t you save some money, Kane?

What shall I do?

If I stay put, the next day will clearly be a death flag, like yesterday.

I don’t want to get stabbed again!

I don’t know why everyone who kills me stabs me with a sword in the stomach, but I don’t want to go through a third time.

If I’m going to die, at least give me a painless ride.

Come to think of it, both of them who killed me. They didn’t kill me with one blow as they wanted to see me suffer.

Hmm… let’s calm down for now.

Just because I’m still excited doesn’t mean I can’t come up with a way to do something about it.

“Phew.”

Shall I sell that alcohol?

That’s one way.

No… that’s too risky.

Of course, selling it would give me some initial capital. But Thomas said he would cut off all support from the family. Which means no selling the family’s stuff.

It’s as if he said, you can’t do that.

I moved my eyes resentfully to where the alcohol was being stored.

What is that, anyway?

Surely it’s a liquor bottle, but there’s something a little sacred about it, unlike the others.

I got a bottle that looked sacred …

Could this be holy water?

These things have their specialties. I could draw her attention on me unintentionally, but a question of this magnitude wouldn’t be very relevant.

“Hey constellation.”

[The goddess who sees destiny was upset, but now pleased to be called by you for the first time!]

It seems like she was pretty heartbroken that I ignored her and sent her a message like that, just because I called her once.

Anyway, it doesn’t matter.

“Is this holy water by any chance?”

[The goddess who sees destiny says why on earth did you put holy water in there?]

I don’t know if you ask me.

Anyway, from the constellation’s reaction, it is clear that it is holy water in my hand.

Holy water.

Something that may sound very divine when you hear the name, but in fact it is useless.

It’s only a name. Its contents are nothing more than ordinary water with a little bit of the divine in it.

And it didn’t have any effect, did it?

Still, it’s called Holy Water, but then shouldn’t it be hard to get hold of?

To that question I can say this quite confidently.

Yes~ no.

But frankly speaking, nothing is as easy as this to get. It’s so easy that even if I don’t have money and I’m kicked out of the house, Holy Water is so easy that you can get it within ten minutes.

To give you an exact example, it is about the same as when I was on Earth, if I went to church I would get bread, gift vouchers.

In fact, that’s practically what you get for free if you go and pray in the game.

There really is nothing more useless than that.

Can’t it be done then?

Even if I can’t sell alcohol, I can do holy water… Because Thomas does so, how? because religious fanatics exits.

But I’m cut off by family support. So should I earn money with points?

That’s one way. Buy and sell cash items with points. Perhaps there is nothing easier than this.

To be honest, it’s a waste.

Points can only be earned by completing quests. And, it’s crazy to sell them to try and make some initial capital out of them.

Anyway, let’s check out the status window.

With the status window on, I entered the game setting capabilities without delay.

Game setting capabilities: volume adjustment, effect quality adjustment, color settings, map display, inventory, cash shop ….

And as I looked at it, a thought flashed through my mind like a bolt of lightning.

I never thought I’d need all this!

I want to punch myself in the back of the head for the past, which I’ve been ignoring them.

Anyway. I’ve solved this and.

I need to hide my true identity to do the business I just thought of.

There are many reasons for this, but the biggest reason is my image.

My face already sells too much in spiritual places. The moment I do business with this face, I’ll be lucky if I don’t have customers run away, let alone avoid it.

Is there anywhere I can hide my face?

As I was thinking, someone knocked on the door.

-Knock-knock!

“It’s Riche. Boochan. May I come in?”

“Yes, come in.”

Riche slowly opens the door and bows her head.

I looked at her for a while and suddenly remembered the first time I possessed, what a coincidence.

“Riche. Do you have anything to hide your face?”

“Eh? ,”

My sudden question made her turn her head with a ‘what are you talking about all of a sudden’ look on her face.

“He— I’m thinking of doing business because my allowance and support has been cut off…”

Just as I was about to continue speaking. Riche nodded with a look of complete understanding.

Judging by her reaction, she seemed to know what I was going to say.

“Umm, (pfft,) T-there’s the mask I wore the other day. How about that?”

Hmm… not bad.

Just as I was about to say, ‘Yeah, I’ll go with that.’

I don’t know what on earth she imagines, but Riche’s smiles distorted momentarily.

…You wouldn’t happen to be a Yandere, would you?

Somehow I had the feeling that she was, but that must not be it.

I’m not talking about a Yandere being a stone on the side of any road, but two of them nearby.

Does it make sense that a two-yandere being nearby, as soon as I reincarnated.

Right. It’s not.

But there’s nothing wrong with being careful. Somehow I feel that using that mask will reveal truths that I don’t want to know.

“Wearing masks are likely to make them sweat. Is there any other kind of mask besides that?”

“Oh… masks… Yes, there is.”

Her expression of regret at my question.

Let’s pretend I didn’t see it. Yes.

“Then lend me.”

“….Yes, I understand.”

She listened to me and took out a pure white mask from the subspace ring.

Speaking of which.

I think I need that ring, too.

This body is not very strong. So it’s pretty hard to carry stuffs with me.

It would be easier if I had that one.

Sensing my gaze, Riche alternated between the subspace ring and me, and naturally hid her hand behind her back.

No, is someone going to take it from you? Why hide it?

If a stranger saw it, they would probably think I’m bullying.

[The goddess of destiny asks if you are going to snatch it…].

See, I knew this would happen.

Something frustrating. I just wanted it. I didn’t want to rob her at all.

Anyway, since this happened, so let’s borrow it, not take it forcefully.

There is a difference between strictly borrowing and taking. Sure, it’s similar or different from the victim’s point of view, but it’s different because I don’t return it or not.

“Riche.”

“….Yes.”

Her pupils shook for a while, as if she had an ominous feeling.

“May I borrow that ring, by any chance?”

“Yes… okay. Could you wait for a while instead?”

Riche accepts my question surprisingly willingly.

Why does she want me to wait, by the way?

I don’t know what it is in the first place, but as a borrower, he would naturally be willing to wait.

“How long do you want me to wait?”

“Ten minutes; ten minutes is fine.”

“Yes, okay.”

“I’ll go to my room for a while.”

With those last words, she left the room in a huff.

What the hell is she doing that for?

I think if I tried to find out by adjusting the volume control I would know, but I thought that might be disrespectful to Riche, so I stayed still.

Ten minutes passed. She entered the room with a blank look on her face, as if the figure she had shown me before that was not her.

She took off the ring on her own finger and handed it to me.

“Here it is. Boochan.”

“Right. Thank you. I’ll give it back to you by tomorrow.”

I took the ring she gave me and put it on my index finger without hesitation.

But how do you activate this?

In the game I used it as a matter of course, pressing buttons, but when it comes to my character, I have no idea how to do it.

As I fretted over the ring thus, Riche explained at the right moment.

“Boochan. You can use that item if you imagine putting things into the ring. When you want to take it out, you just have to imagine it the other way round.”

“I see.”

Hearing this, I imagined putting the mask into the ring. Then the mask was sucked into the ring as if absorbed by a vacuum cleaner.

Ok. That’s about right.

“Speaking of which, Riche, didn’t you come in for something?”

“Ah! Yes, I was going to clean your room.”

Riche says as if she had forgotten her errand but remembered.

“It’s fine for today. Tomorrow.”

“Yes …… I understand.”

She looked a little disappointed at my words and nodded .

“Then I have something to do now. Tell no one to come into my room.”

“Yes.”

“Then you can leave.”

With those last words, she depressingly left the room.

[The goddess of destiny is interested in what you are up to.]

Don’t be surprised when you see it.
