Avoid the Yandere Goddess

I took Lise, Kage, Willy, and Lien with me as we walked towards the meeting place.
As we walked and talked, we soon arrived at our destination.
I turned up the volume and looked around to see where the others were.

“Are you here, Kaine?”

Ange’s voice came from behind.
I turned my head and replied.

“Yes. Where are the others?”
“They’re waiting at the Warp Gate.”
“Oh, okay. Let’s go then.”

Ange nodded and took the lead.
We followed behind her.

‘Hmm. By the way.’

This is the first time I’ve seen Ange in casual clothes.
Up until now, she’s always worn the pure white robes that priests usually wear.
But today, she’s wearing something different.

A white one-piece dress that reaches down to her thighs.
To avoid being recognized, she’s wearing round glasses that suit her.
And a straw hat to shield her from the sun.

She looks incredibly beautiful, enough to make me lose my train of thought for a moment.
Usually, when people wear glasses, they’re called ‘jok-gyeong’ (a derogatory term for people with glasses), but in her case, her distinct features make her a ‘god-gyeong’ (a term for someone who looks good in glasses).
Well, to be honest, those glasses have no prescription.
That’s probably part of the reason too.

“Ange.”
“Yes?”
“Your casual clothes look good on you.”
“Ah…”

At my compliment, she blushes and touches her earlobes.
Then she bows her head and says in a shy voice.

“Thank you…”
Squeeze! Squeeze!

Lise, who was listening to the conversation, narrowed her eyes and poked me in the ribs.
Her expression seemed to say, ‘Why didn’t you compliment me?’

‘Well, you’re just wearing your usual maid outfit.’

As I thought this and continued walking, I caught sight of the others.
They were eager to go to the sea, their faces full of anticipation, like children going to the sea for the first time.
As I was thinking how ridiculous this was,

“Hey. Why did you call me here?”
“Huh?”

Jenny approached me without hesitation and asked.
I whispered to her so that no one else could hear.

“Wouldn’t you have called me too if you saw the others?”
At my words, she looked around.
She nodded in understanding.

“In my opinion, you’ll be torn into at least six pieces today.”
“That’s why I called you and someone else to stop that from happening.”
“Just me and those two brats? You’re dreaming.”

Meanwhile, Jenny didn’t include Lien.
From her words, it’s clear that she also considered Lien as a candidate.
As Jenny and I were talking.

“Kaine. Did you sleep well today?”

Eileen asked, blushing.

Was it because her cheeks were flushed?
For a moment, I thought about the kiss from yesterday.

“…..”
“…..”

A strange atmosphere flowed between us.
Lise, who was standing next to us, immediately noticed the atmosphere.
Then she said.

“Young Master slept well, so you don’t need to worry, Eileen.”
Lise said this with a scary smile and a cold voice.
Eileen turned her head towards Lise.
Her mouth was smiling, but her eyes remained cold.

“Yes. I just asked because I was worried. Lise.”
“Kaine. Let’s go without them. Ange has already taken care of the Warp Gate.”
“Huff. Okay.”

I sighed deeply and followed Skaya towards the Warp Gate.
We entered the Warp Gate with the others.

.

.

.

Waves rippling in the sea.
Soft sand, unlike the hard ground.
A lush green palm forest.
A large mansion at the entrance of the forest.

The surrounding scenery confirmed that this was the location of the quest.
By the way.

“As expected, there’s no one here.”
“I heard that tourists don’t come here because of the sea monster.”

As I said this, Ange answered from behind and explained about this place.

Gold Rich.
A popular holiday destination for people from the continent.
But recently, people have stopped coming here.

Because rumors have spread that a giant kraken lives in the sea.
Of course, the monster doesn’t show itself every day.

“It appears from time to time.”
“Hmm. A kraken…”

It’s understandable that people don’t come here.
If they’re not careful, they might end up getting strangled by its tentacles.
Not in a sexy way, but in a way that could choke them to death.
The monster might even kidnap them and take them somewhere in the sea.

‘Honestly, I wouldn’t want to come here either.’

The monster probably looks incredibly repulsive. Who would want to swim in a sea where a giant kraken lives?
In reality, we’re only feeling relaxed because we have the strongest people in this world with us. If they weren’t here,

‘There’s no real reason to take this quest.’

The reward isn’t that great, and the opponent is a bothersome sea monster.
It’s understandable that adventurers and people don’t come here.

Fighting a sea monster is a challenging task.
After listening to Ange’s explanation, I nodded.

“That’s right. Well, let’s meet the quest giver first. They seem to be in that mansion over there.”
“Yes. Let’s do that.”

For now, we headed towards the mansion in sight to meet the quest giver.

.

.

.

After walking for about 10 minutes, we arrived at our destination.
Maybe because there were no ordinary people around.

We arrived faster than expected.
As I knocked on the mansion’s door.

“Yes. Who is it?”

A young girl’s voice came from the crystal ball attached to the door.
I answered her question.

“I’m here for the quest.”

At my words, someone inside the mansion rushed towards the door.
Then.

“Huh? Really?”

A little girl opened the door and looked at me, her face full of disbelief.
Kage, standing next to me, crossed her arms like an adult and replied.

“Kid. Are there no adults here other than you?”
“You’re a kid too, so what?”
“Eek!”

As expected, Kage was hit with facts.
I ignored her reaction and asked the girl in front of me.

“Is there anyone else here? Your parents or anyone else?”
“Ah, just a moment. Si-i-i-i-i-ster!!! There’s a guest!!!!”

She shouted at the top of her lungs.
If the volume was turned up to the maximum, nothing would have been heard for a while.

Her voice was so loud that it was exceptional.
After waiting for a few seconds.

-Hoda-dadak!

The sound of someone running could be heard from inside the mansion.
The next moment, a woman with slightly tanned skin and a carefree appearance appeared.

“Hey, Levi. Is it really you?”
“Yeah! Sister! Look over here!”

Levi, the little girl, pointed at us with her finger.
The woman’s gaze slowly followed Levi’s finger.
Then she widened her eyes, as if her pupils were about to pop out.

“Huh? Really?”
“I told you, Sister! Just ask the Adventurer’s Guild for a quest! Ahem!”

Levi, the little girl, puffed out her chest as if she knew this would happen.
It seems like Kage and Willy will have fun with her.

As I was thinking this, Mei, Levi’s sister, slowly opened her mouth.

“Ah, please come in.”
“Yes, of course.”

At her words, she let us into the mansion.
Hmm. Not bad.

The floor is made of good quality material.
Expensive-looking chairs and desks.
Rooms that could accommodate all of us.

This mansion is definitely of a satisfying level.
Not just me, but the others also smiled in satisfaction.

“Then I’ll talk to the quest giver. You guys go ahead and unpack.”

The others nodded and seriously discussed which rooms to take. I turned my head towards the quest giver.

“Then let’s talk, just the two of us.”
“Yes, I understand.”

We went to a guest room in the mansion.
I took out the quest from my Space ring and handed it to her.

“Just to let you know, are you the one who posted this quest?”
“Yes. Well, to be precise, my sister did it. Ahaha.”

The quest giver awkwardly laughed and scratched her head.
It seemed like she didn’t expect anyone to actually take the quest.

“Actually, I did some research before coming here. But I still think it’s necessary to hear the details from the quest giver. Can you tell me more?”

At my question, she hesitated for a moment, then nodded with a determined look, as if grasping the last straw.

“First of all, let me introduce myself. My name is Mei.”

With that, Mei explained everything that happened on this island, known as Gold Rich, and the giant kraken.

.

.

.

After listening to Mei’s explanation for about an hour, I sat in a chair under a parasol, shielding me from the scorching summer sun.
I was wearing loose swimming trunks that reached down to my knees and a rash guard.

“Hmm~”

Not bad at all.
After training all day, coming to play at the beach feels like a purification of the mind.

-Swoosh!

As I listened to the sound of the waves and savored my drink,

“Ugh… I feel a bit embarrassed.”
“It’s okay, Skaya. It suits you.”

Skaya’s shy voice could be heard.

“Where’s Kaine?”
“He’s over there. Daughter.”

As Ange called out to me with a passionate voice, Lien pointed at me.

“Quickly take a video of the Young Master!”
“Senior’s muscles!”

I could feel the intense enthusiasm in the voices of Lise and Lisannanna.
What’s going on? Why do I feel a chill even though it’s hot?

As I wiped the goosebumps on my arm, Willy and Kage came running.
Then Kage stretched out her flat chest.
As if asking how she looked.

“How does it look, Master? Is this swimsuit pretty?”
“…..”

Well, it’s just.
Her swimsuit is obviously for children, not adults.

I can’t even say it’s pretty as a compliment.
Half of it is covered by a child’s tube.

“Oh, it’s fine. It suits you.”
“What? It’s clearly a compliment, but why does it sound like an insult?”
“You must be mistaken.”

I gave her a compliment-like insult and turned my head towards Willy.
Willy had a stoic expression.
Her swimsuit was the frilly one she had chosen yesterday.

“Not bad.”
Nod. Nod.

Willy nodded with a stoic expression.
Then she jumped into the sea with Kage.

At the same time, I felt a piercing gaze.
Hmm. What’s going on? Why do I feel this gaze?
In fact, I have a pretty good idea who’s looking at me.
It’s obvious who would be staring, right?

As I turned my head, as expected.

The female companions were staring at me.
Except for Lien and Jenny, they all narrowed their eyes.
As if wondering what was going on.

Why are they looking at me like that?
I don’t understand.
I don’t understand why they’re making such sullen faces.
After all, they’re at the beach they wanted to come to.

So they should be excited, not sullen.
In reality, it’s like we’ve rented the entire island.
As I thought this, I looked at the female companions one by one.

Did she match her hair color?
Lisanna wore a deep red bikini, proudly showing off her chest.
Skaya blushed and shyly covered her pure white bikini with her hands.
Eileen wore the swimsuit she bought yesterday.

The two mother and daughter seemed to match each other, both wearing navy blue bikinis.
Lise wore a brown bikini and smiled seductively.

Seeing the female companions, I rationally suspected that this place might be heaven.
After all, their appearances were so stunning that I didn’t know where to look.

My face grew hot against my will.
I tried to calm down by turning my head towards Jenny.

“Huff. I feel a bit better now.”
“What’s wrong? Do you want me to hit you?”
“Huh? Of course not.”

In fact, Jenny also looked quite good.
She wore a black bikini, had a decent body, and had a chest of a reasonable size.
She had distinct features.

If there were men here, they would have tried to pick her up.
However, the problem is.

‘The other girls are too much.’

The female companions, except for Jenny, had appearances that could rival celebrities.
Jenny’s appearance isn’t bad, but compared to the others, she can’t help but look inferior.

‘By the way, when is the Constellation going to join us?’

As I was thinking this, Lise slowly approached me.
With a scary smile.

“Young Master.”
“Yes?”

For some reason, I felt a foreboding feeling.
At that moment, I realized I was in a huge crisis.
The female companions, except for Lien and Jenny, had surrounded me so I couldn’t escape.

Damn. I didn’t realize I was staring at them for so long.
I inadvertently looked at the female companions with a dazed expression.
Unaware of the crisis I was in.

As I wiped the cold sweat off my forehead, I wondered how to escape.

“Kaine. Why are you wearing that?”

Skaya asked in a cold voice.
Eileen nodded in agreement.

“Skaya. Why are you wearing that?”

Huh? What’s wrong with it?
Putting my question aside, Ange and Lisanna continued.

“Kaine. It’s not polite to wear that at the beach.”
“Huh?”
“That’s right. Senior. Even so, it’s not right.”

Huh? So, what’s wrong with it?
As I continued to not understand, Lise opened her mouth with a determined look.

“Ladies, let’s take it off.”

What? What the hell?
With those words, the female companions started to pounce on me.

After that, I learned one thing.
Their purpose wasn’t just the beach, but something else as well.
