I Will Create a Good Ending for the Yandere Villainess-Chapter 205: Unforgiveable?

Lillian's face twitched at the Assassin's words before slowly turning away from her, "Yeah... Great time..."

"Do you doubt me?"

"... It's more like I believe you entirely... Especially with how distracted you are with that hickey..."

Marionette tilted her head cutely, "You make it sound like I shouldn't feel happy about receiving a gift from you."

Lillian, who had turned back to face the woman, blinked at her before turning away again. Her face scrunched up at how adorable the Assassin was acting.

'This is why she's my top-tier waifu...!' She internally screamed.

Since the current day was a weekend, they were able to go home early. The reason why they had gone to class today was that the teachers had given their students an option to come in and study for the upcoming exam or not.

However, for people like Lillian and Marionette, the day was not yet over, as some people would think. They were off to training once more.

In a bare-bones simulation—a room made up of white squares—two women stood on either side of the room.

Marionette twisted her body around, stretching, as she tightly clutched a baseball that came from a pile beside her.

Lillian, on the other hand, was shaping her hand into the gesture of a gun.

The reason why? It gave her just a tad bit more points, which was always needed, no matter what.

"So, I just have to shoot them out of the air?"

Marionette nodded, moving into a throwing pose, "Yes. We'll be practising your accuracy and reaction time today."

"Isn't my accuracy already good?"

"Most of the time. You still remember how you missed the Corrupted Catacomb Dweller, do you not?"

Lillian stared at her with a twitching face, "Alright, look. I was still a novice back then."

Marionette gave a low hum before tilting her head, "You're still a greenhorn to me."

Just as Lillian was about to retort, she quickly morphed her head into water as a baseball blasted through her head.

SPLASH!

As Lillian was reforming her head, Marionette stared at her with an impressed look.

"Your reaction time is satisfactory for your current level, though." She stated, twisting her body around as she went into another throwing pose.

Lillian, having reshaped her head, watched as another baseball shot through the air—this time arcing down towards her position.

She raised her gun-shaped hand at the baseball, shooting it with a bullet of water that had grown considerably more powerful the more she used it.

This continued on for a while. Although Lillian had been able to get most of them, she did have to avoid some by transforming her body into water.

It seemed the Rabbit found it easier to dodge the attack instead of preventing or taking it head-on. This was something the Assassin had mentally noted.

As Lillian kept on shooting them out of the air, feeling her supply of mana being reduced, she began to feel like the baseballs were growing in number.

With her mind and attention split between shooting them from out of the air and dodging them, she wasn't able to avoid one slamming into her right eye.

Marionette watched as Lillian collapsed onto her back with the area of the impact on her face being caved in. Fortunately, the digital particles were there to hide this bit.

Her body digitised and appeared in the same spot. Good as new.

Lillian harshly rubbed the back of her head in frustration, "How did I not dodge that? I saw it coming!" She yelled, scratching her head like some gamer who had lost all of their progress.

Marionette tilted her head left and right, thinking. She walked over to Lillian and placed her hand on top of her head, patting her.

"You did well, Lillian. Of course, there is room for improvement. But don't beat yourself up about something as mild as that."

Lillian grumbled a bit at the patting before giving in.

"I guess... Did you have to go through stuff like this in your training as well?"

Marionette's hand froze. She took on a pondering expression as she went through her memories.

"I... Went through something similar." The Assassin answered in a vague manner, leaving room for the girl to imagine.

Lillian raised an eyebrow, "Is that so?" She then gestured for the Assassin to lower herself to her level.

Marionette stared at her curiously before bending her knees, making it so she was eye-level with the Rabbit.

"Yes?" freēnovelkiss.com

She then felt Lillian's hand land on top of her head, followed by rubbing and pats.

"Here's your payment as usual~..." Lillian cooed as she patted the Assassin, watching as the stoic woman's face cracked.

The edges of Marionette's lips curled up slightly into a small smile as she closed her eyes. "You've been forgetting to do this, you know..."

Lillian grinned teasingly, "And you forget to remind me to do it. No need to feel shy about it~..."

The Assassin opened one eye and stared at her, "Who said I was shy? You're the shy one here."

"Eh~? How so?"

"Too shy to kiss me. What's wrong? Can't kiss your beloved friend?"

"Bah! I already gave you a hickey. Be satisfied for now, you pervert."

"Pervet, hm? Says the one who gave it while drunk."

"Oh shush!"

[Two Days Later]

Reph tapped his chin with the back of his pen, staring at the forms in front of him. He was sitting at his desk as he overlooked the teams that would be participating in the tournament that would begin tomorrow.

In the corner of his eye, another slip of paper was passed to him. Glancing in that direction, he found Lillian standing beside his desk.

"Oh...? Have you... Finally decided on what to partake in?"

Lillian smiled wryly, "You make it sound like I was going to at the beginning."

"Were you... Not?" Reph raised an eyebrow. "I feel like this... Assumption was obvious, considering you are a strong contestant and all..."

Lillian rubbed the back of her head, sheepishly, at his compliment, "Ah~... Thanks. Anyway, I want to do the One vs One."

"Oh...? And not the Hunting one?"

"That's the one where you have to kill a certain number of monsters under a time limit, right? Yeah, no..." Lillian shook her head, "I'm not fast enough for that."

She then added:

"But Marionette did tell me to sign her up for that one as well as the Crystal Defence."

Reph widened his eyes.

"She wants to do Crystal Defence?"

"Uh huh." Lillian nodded before shrugging, "You'd think someone like her would do the same thing as me."

"... Speaking about her... Where is she?"

Lillian raised her thumb and pointed towards the front of the class. Reph turned his eyes and found two familiar individuals huddled around an empty desk.

Marionette and Millis were hunched over as they looked at something on the desk, which resembled a piece of paper with writing on it. He raised an eyebrow before looking back towards Lillian.

She shrugged, "They pushed me away, so I can't really see what they are doing."

Reph gave a low hum, "I see... Well, then, could you help me with looking over these teams...? I'm sure you have a good grasp on our class's abilities."

"Are you off to the library now?" Marionette asked, exiting the classroom alongside a white-haired girl.

Lillian gave her a wry smile, "I am—" Just before she could finish, she froze at the sound of another person's voice.

"Oh? Then how about we walk together, you know?"

Both Lillian and Marionette turned to their left, finding the Student Council President walking down the corridor towards them.

"Ooh~! Beatrice!" Lillian perked up, seeing the woman who had just smiled at them.

Marionette watched as Lillian bursted into joy at the sight of the woman and couldn't help but feel... A bit weird about that. An almost uncomfortable feeling.

The edges of her lips curved down into a frown as she unconsciously folded her arms. Was it wrong for her to feel like that?

She also couldn't help but feel her intuition warning her about the Student President, who conversed with the Rabbit. She was then snapped out of her deep thought at her name being called.

"Hey, Mari, I'm gonna head off to the Library with her. You don't mind, right?"

The Assassin silently stared at the girl before glancing towards the blonde-haired woman, who was waving at her innocently with a smile.

"... May I ask something?"

"Huh? Sure. What's up?" Lillian tilted her head, suddenly getting a strange feeling from the Assassin.

"Have you two... Been meeting up all this time?"

Lillian's ears twitched at her question—a slight shiver running up her spine. She didn't know why, but she felt an ominous aura radiating off the woman.

Just as she was about to respond to her "Normal" question, an arm suddenly wrapped around her neck, pulling her in.

Beatrice, pulling Lillian into her side, leaned against her casually. She stared at the Assassin with a playful look.

"We have~... It's just us in there, don't worry... What you should be worrying about is how we've been learning how to kiss in there, you know~..."

Lillian widened her eyes as she slowly turned towards the blonde-haired woman. She was shocked by what she said. Not only had she exposed their secret for some unknown reason, but she worded it extremely badly.

"Why did you tell her about that—?!"

However, she then stopped as she felt the lighting in the empty corridor become dimmer.

She turned her head around, turning her eyes towards the Assassin to find her...

"Is... That... So...?"

... Staring at her with dull eyes that seem to glow an eerie blood red light. With her head tilted to the side, she raised her hand and pushed it towards the wall beside her.

A dark puddle appeared on the wall, and coming out of it was a long, narrow javelin.
