Chapter 551: The master and disciple’s plan that was destined to fail

He was confused because this time, his other acquaintance and the woman who hired him came to his target!

This was not in the plan.

Kuro frowned.

He wondered what the two women wanted to do?

Especially Nemesis. Didn’t you want me to kill that boy?

Why did you…

“Eiji-senpai, Yami-oneechan!”

“Mea?”

Yami frowned, she didn’t know why her younger sister was suddenly meeting her and Eiji.

Moreover, she was not alone. There was a girl who came with her.

This was Yami’s first time meeting Nemesis.

As their gazes met each other, Yami felt that the girl was somewhat similar to her and Mea.

Still, their arrival disrupted her lunch with Eiji!

Yami was not happy.

As for Eiji? He smiled at Mea, especially Nemesis who was in her loli form.

That woman was exactly the same as in the original work.

This situation became more interesting.

“Mea, why did you come here? And this pretty girl… Your friend?”

Eiji pretended not to know.

Yami looked at the boy flatly. Not long ago they were making out but when her younger sister and this black-haired girl came.

His attention was quickly diverted and casually flirted with another girl in front of his girlfriend.

Is this what is called a bastard?

Previously Yami had little understanding of this term. But now?

There was no need to say it.

“Sorry to bother you two. And introduce, this is my master.”

Mea gestured for her master to introduce herself.

Nemesis of course understood. She thought Eiji really didn’t recognize her current appearance even though he knew about her from the original work. She remembered Eiji mentioning her in his inner voice.

She would show how good her acting skills were to her disciple.

Look at this, Mea.

“Hello, my name is Nemesis. As Mea said, I am her master.”

“Konjiki no Yami, Eiji Seiya. I’ve been wanting to meet you two for a long time.”

Nemesis kindly introduced herself. She had even finished her lollipop before coming here and showed a sweet smile.

She didn’t look dangerous.

However, Yami looked at her warily because she was that woman! The reason why Mea always wanted to take her away with her and change her back to her old self, Nemesis was behind it!

As Mea’s master, she was the one who gave the girl the order to plot against her.

How could Yami have such a good impression of Nemesis?

A few strands of her blonde hair turned into a knife and prepared to kill. But before she could stab Nemesis, Eiji wrapped his arm around her shoulders and pulled her into his embrace which made her freeze.

That sudden physical contact also made Yami blush!

“Yami, don’t be so impulsive. Let’s at least listen to what Mea and her master want first.”

Eiji said while slightly squeezing Yami’s soft body.

“I-I understand. But Eiji, can you let me go?”

This is embarrassing!

Yami added in her heart.

Eiji didn’t answer but his inner voice was heard by them.

[Sorry but no, I haven’t touched Yami in a long time. Before I only ever slapped her ass and received kisses from her.]

[Now that we’re dating. It’s not too much if I can hug her and take advantage of her, right?]

Too much!

That’s too much!

It’s called sexual harassment!

Can you do it in a quiet place and just the two of us?

Don’t do it in front of Mea and Nemesis!

Yami frantically complained in her heart.

Even so, she didn’t resist or try to break away and even leaned her body against Eiji.

If it was any other man who tried to touch her, she would have already hit them with her hair.

But Eiji was her boyfriend…

She was helpless and felt her heart pounding.

This feeling was both embarrassing and exciting.

“…..” Mea.

“…..” Nemesis

“…..” Kuro.

They were stunned because Yami really obeyed Eiji.

The proof was that before Yami was about to commit murder, she immediately stopped what she wanted to do and became a shy girl when Eiji hugged her.

Was this still Konjiki no Yami whose name was enough to scare many people in the galaxy?

An assassin with the code name Golden Darkness?

This is just a lovesick girl!

Kuro almost dropped his weapon.

As for Mea and Nemesis? They felt like they were being fed dog food and couldn’t help but feel sour.

“So what do you two need?”

“…..” Yami’s lips twitched.

Eiji ignored her question and continued to utilize her body.

Shameless!

“This…” Mea looked at her master before looking around as if searching for someone. This action made her look anxious about something.

Yami was confused, what was wrong with Mea?

However, Eiji was still smiling even though in his heart he was laughing. As a person pretending every day, how could he not see that Mea was pretending?

Although the girl’s acting skills were enough to fool Yami.

In his eyes, it was not enough!

It lacked naturalness and still looked contrived.

Mea, you are still too young and have a lot to learn!

At least, get two or three Oscars before wanting to fool me with your acting skills.

Still, Eiji didn’t know for sure what the girl and her master were planning. Whatever it was, this must have something to do with the person who wanted to kill him.

“Eiji-senpai, this is serious! Right now, there’s someone who wants to kill you!”

“He’s probably watching you from the darkness and waiting for the right time to act!”

Mea anxiously said. In her heart, she smiled because she was confident compared to before.

Her current acting skills had improved.

Moreover, her anxiety was not a complete lie.

Although what she was worried about was not Eiji’s safety, but rather Eiji might find out about her acting!

“Oh.” Eiji said calmly.

He didn’t look surprised at all.

Yami who was in Eiji’s arms was surprised and angry that someone dared to have the idea to kill her boyfriend.

Although in the past she herself had had the idea to kill Eiji and knew how strong he was.

Ahem! That was in the past, now she had fallen in love with him and anyone who wanted to kill him…

They would be her enemy.

She wanted to find the killer, she was sure the other party wasn’t far around but Eiji was holding her tightly which made her helpless.

“Who is it? Do you know?” Eiji asked.

Mea was relieved because until now, Eiji’s inner voice hadn’t said anything about her acting skills!

She seems to have succeeded?

Did you see that, Master?

I hope you’re not messing up because your acting skills are worse than your own disciple.

Nemesis could feel the gaze of her disciple’s arrogant gaze. She almost rolled her eyes because Mea had recently gotten bolder in belittling her master.

She was too quick to be happy just for showing off a little.

She was still too young. Did she not notice Eiji’s lukewarm reaction when he heard someone wanted to kill him?

That boy didn’t panic or alert at all! Of course, Nemesis knew Eiji was powerful so his calm reaction upon hearing this news was natural.

However, it made their plan less successful.

If Eiji was too indifferent to the person who wanted to kill him, he also probably wouldn’t think too much of their actions to tell him this news.

“I know! Eiji, actually I was the first to hear this news from my connection. The person who wants to kill you is a hitman at least as famous as Yami.”

“His name is Kuro! Yami, I’m sure you know him and know how strong that guy is, right?”

It was not Mea who answered, but Nemesis who naturally told half-truths and lies.

After saying that, she even turned everyone’s attention to Yami. She did this so that Eiji wouldn’t pay too much attention to her micro-expressions.

Although Nemesis was confident in her acting skills that were better than her disciple, she did not underestimate Eiji’s observation skills.

She thought she was doing it perfectly.

As proof, Eiji was now reacting pretty much by widening his eyes.

Yami was even fooled by her because she was the most surprised when she heard the name of the person who wanted to kill her boyfriend.

As for Mea? She was amazed by what her master said.

Hahaha! Mea, this is the acting skill that your master has achieved.

Nemesis laughed in her heart

However, she didn’t know Eiji considered her acting skills as bad as her disciple.

It was just a little better.

Although Eiji was a little surprised when he heard the familiar name, he refrained from complaining about Nemesis!

What exactly were these two people planning?

Should he use Future Insight to find out now? Well…

Forget it.

He would find out the answer himself. Wouldn’t that be more fun?

“Kuro? I know he… But Eiji, don’t misunderstand! Kuro and I are just acquaintances and we fought once.”

Yami admitted that she knew Kuro but as if realizing something…

She hurriedly explained to Eiji for fear that he would misunderstand.

Eiji was happy with Yami’s explanation even though he knew what kind of relationship the girl had with Kuro from the original work.

And yes, it was just as she said.

[Still, why did Yami bother to explain? Does she think I’ll get jealous because I’m so possessive?]

Yami: You didn’t?

The other heroines who heard this also thought the same as Yami. Eiji often forgot or didn’t want to admit how possessive he was of his women.

Although he never told them directly not to get too close to other men.

Did you know? In the Master-Servant contract, there is one feature that makes them have a magic barrier that is active for 24 hours a day.

The barrier would naturally trigger if any male other than Eiji tried to touch them. If the men had bad intentions, the effect would be even more terrifying.

What does that mean? Eiji is very possessive!

Even Yami who had heard his inner voice so far knew it.

[Put aside if it’s another man. I’m not worried because I’ve already taken precautions.]

[But… I know Kuro from the original work. She and Yami are really just acquaintances who share the same profession as a hitman. I’m really not jealous, okay? And in the original work, I remember that guy wanted to kill the protagonist Rito because Azenda hired him. That woman did it because she failed to get revenge on Yami.]

[So, she hired Kuro to kill Yami’s loved one.]

[However, in this life. The person Kuro wanted to kill was me. The plot changed! Even so, didn’t Azenda die at my hands? In this life, who hired Kuro to kill me? Hmm…]

Really?

You’re not jealous?

While Yami and the other heroines doubted some of what Eiji said.

However, they did not doubt that Eiji really knew Kuro.

They felt that the man was pathetic for planning to kill Eiji.

Put aside the many women in Eiji’s harem who had murderous intentions on Kuro who wanted to kill their husbands.

Eiji himself was very strong!

Who in the world could even scratch his skin?

The protagonists who once provoked him weren’t even able to do so.

“…..” Still, it was different with the other heroines. Mea and Nemesis were nervous as Eiji began to wonder who hired Kuro.

He wouldn’t suspect them, right?

“Yami, I believe you. But you worry too much, I’m not jealous at all.” Eiji said.

“…..” Yami didn’t believe it. Why? It was because right now, Eiji was hugging her tighter. She could feel his possessiveness which made her a little embarrassed and happy.

“Nemesis, you said that guy named Kuro was a hitman. Do you also know who hired him?”

Eiji shifted his gaze to the black-haired loli in front of him.

Although the woman hid it well.

He could see the nervousness from her micro expression.

The same went for Mea who was more nervous than her master.

These two women…

Don’t tell me one of them is the one who hired Kuro?

They should have known his power and that Kuro could not possibly kill him. If they really did, they wouldn’t have bothered pretending.

So the purpose of their plan should not be to kill him. But, something else!

Kuro might also have been tricked by the person who hired him!

Before Nemesis was about to say anything, Eiji’s inner voice was heard.

[Honestly, I want to laugh.]

[Do Mea and Nemesis think I’m as easy to fool as Yami?]

Yami was a little offended. She was fooled?

Mea and Nemesis froze.

[Naive, you two are still too naive. First, Mea. Your acting skills have only slightly improved from the last time we met and it’s still bad!]

[You suddenly ran towards me and Yami to tell me that there was someone who wanted to kill me. However, you apologized for disturbing us and introduced your master first.]

[Your concern about my safety didn’t seem so great that you were still polite. I knew you were faking right from that moment!]

Mea: !!!

Oh no! Master, didn’t I tell you? You’re underestimating how sensitive Eiji is!

[And Nemesis, I must admit that your acting skills are quite good compared to your disciple. However, your level is still far from mine. You’re a hundred years too early before wanting to fool me with your acting skills!]

Nemesis: A hundred years too early? Isn’t that too much?!

[Although I don’t know what exact plans you made with your disciple that you hired Kuro to kill me…]

You knew that?!

Nemesis was numb.

She slightly regretted not listening to Mea’s words.

Yami glared at Nemesis and her younger sister, Mea. The other heroines were intrigued and wondered if the two women were crazy?

They’re playing with fire with Eiji!

[You guys don’t want to kill me otherwise why bother telling me about Kuro? You guys want something else from me. Hmm… Come to think of it, what is it? I’m curious.]

!!!

The other heroines were also curious.

Yami wondered should she attack Nemesis and Mea right now for plotting against Eiji?

Even though Eiji had said those two women didn’t want to kill him, but wanted something else from him.

That was just a possibility, right?

Even if Mea was her younger sister, Yami…

“Eiji-senpai, sorry! Actually we didn’t mean any harm…”

“Maybe a little, but it was my master’s idea! I originally tried to stop her because I knew it was futile, but she didn’t listen to me!”

Mea was unable to withstand the pressure of this situation and apologized for her crime. However, she spoke as if she was also a victim while pointing at her master for being the mastermind.

“…..” Eiji and Yami glanced at the woman Mea was referring to.

Nemesis froze and her expression darkened.

She glared at Mea because she did not expect that her disciple whom she had raised for so many years would betray her and throw a black pot over her head.

Although it was not wrong, the girl was also guilty because she was her accomplice!

She dared to betray her!

Putting aside Yami who was staring at her with murderous intent.

Nemesis saw that Eiji was still smiling and did not look angry at all. However, the dark eyes that looked at her amusedly were slightly glowing with blue light.

Nemesis shuddered. She knew herself would not be able to defeat Eiji. She felt scared and just like her disciple, she also wanted to…

“Eiji, sorry! Haha, I’m not denying, what Mea said is true. D-Don’t get angry, okay?”

“You admit it right away?” Asked Eiji while pretending to be surprised.

Nemesis nodded and said with an awkward smile. “Yes and believe me, our intention was not to kill you.”

“Then what do you want from me?”

“We…”

Although Nemesis usually had a thick, or rather shameless, face. Right now, she felt embarrassed to say that they were doing this to get his heart!

It was like getting on Eiji’s good side and seducing him into becoming his woman. However, instead of doing it in a simple way like throwing themselves at him.

They took a complicated approach by hiring hitmen and appearing as saviors to make Eiji feel moved by them.

Nemesis didn’t tell anyone including her disciple, but she made this plan based on the references she got from the Korean drama she watched a week ago.

That was why she insisted on this plan and she regretted it!

Still, before Nemesis finished her words.

*BANG!*

A gunshot sounded in the distance. An ordinary person would not hear this sound but none of them were ordinary people.

Even so, the one who reacted first was Eiji.

However, unlike the three beauties whose expressions were gradually panicked and alert.

He was very calm and didn’t bother to glance at the red-colored energy bullets flying towards his head.

With Yami in one of his hands, his other hand extended towards the energy bullet and without any addition, he grasped the attack.

His fist glowed with red light before creating a muffled explosion and emitting smoke.

The energy bullet was caught and blocked with his bare hands!

Although the three women who witnessed the incident knew Eiji was very strong. They didn’t expect him to be able to withstand energy bullets with his bare hands.

How strong is his skin and flesh?!

Moreover, the hand Eiji used to do that didn’t look injured at all.

“No way!”

In the distance, Kuro who had just fired and saw his energy bullets blocked with his bare hands by Eiji, he was surprised of course and said the clichéd words that villains usually say when their attacks fail.

Originally he wanted to cancel this mission because Nemesis and Kurosaki Mea looked familiar with the target.

That woman, Nemesis seemed to be tricking him. However, Kuro was annoyed and decided to continue the mission by killing Eiji.

After all, he didn’t want anyone to get in the way of his mission including the person who hired him.

However, he regretted it because the person he wanted to kill seemed to be much stronger than he thought.

“That was a pathetic sneak attack for not even being able to tickle me.”

“I’m disappointed…”

“…..” Yami, Mea and Nemesis. If Kuro heard this, would she vomit blood?

Eiji glanced towards Kuro’s hiding place and indifferently. He took out a silver arcade coin from his inventory and positioned it in his hand.

He had long wanted to try the heroine of a certain franchise’s trick with BoBoiBoy Thunderstorm’s lightning manipulation.

The principle behind this was simple, there were two parallel currents on either side of his hand, the first going to his palm, and the second back to his body, and the projectile that acted as a bridge between the two currents was an arcade coin.

It served as a projectile that would later be pushed by his index finger towards Kuro using electromagnetic force.

With dark red lightning creaking around him but not hurting Yami and the two women around him. Of course, after all Eiji had perfect control over his own power.

The name of this move is…

Kuro felt a chill in his heart. His normally calm expression suddenly became panicked.

Something was coming towards him and he had to escape immediately.

Otherwise, he would die!
