Kane woke up as usual, got ready for school, and changed into his school uniform.
He approached the full-length mirror in his room.
The hickey is quite distinct.
How intense must the kiss have been for a hickey to be so vivid on his neck? If he goes to school like this, hes sure to attract 100% of the attention.
Nevertheless. I had a hard time explaining to them yesterday.
Yesterday, Riche, Eileen, and Skaya misunderstood Kane due to the hickey mark left on his neck.
Its no wonder, as he had ended up in a motel-like place, drunk, with a woman, all alone in a room.
Thats not all. There were also traces on his pants that seemed to have come down a little.
So even though Kane was suspiciously eyed by the three of them, he had nothing to say in defense.
But now he feels quite unjust, having expressed his feelings.
When Kane was contemplating if there was anything to cover the hickey on his neck, Kersey opened the door with a bang.
Master! I heard you had sex last night!
To call that Sex. Ridiculous.
Kane couldnt believe Kerseys choice of words and asked her.
Who told you that?
Huh? Riche told me.
Damn it. She didnt believe me at all yesterday.
She said she would believe my words, but now shes suddenly changed her attitude after just one day.
Or maybe shes just mad.
Anyway, thats not important.
Right now, I need to find something to cover up this hickey on my neck.
Hey, Kersey, do you have anything to cover up a mark on the neck?
Hmmoh! I do!
Okay, then give it to me quickly. I might be late for school at this rate.
Without hesitation, Kersey took a band out of her pocket dimension ring.
Will this do, Master?
Uh, yeahit should work.
Why? Why does it have to be a band for toddlers? Its good for covering the kiss mark, but the problem is that attention might be drawn to the band, which could lead to some misunderstanding.
Kane briefly glanced at his watch.
There wasnt much time left until school started.
If he continued to be indecisive, he might end up being late.
Tch! Still, covering it up is better than not doing anything.
With that thought in mind, Kane took the band from Kersey and stuck it on the hickey on his neck.
Ill use it well. Im in a hurry, so Im leaving now.
Yes, Master. Take care!
With that, Kane rushed out of the room to make sure he wouldnt be late for school.

I arrived at the academy on time and deeply thought about the upcoming royal festival.
Hmm. Im sure Ive been preparing for this since today, right?
I remember it was a few days after the field experience learning in the game.
So, considering the timing, now is the most appropriate.
Hmm. In the original, Andrew instructed an infiltrator to assassinate Kim Soo-yong at the Royal Academy, right?.
Well, since Kim Soo-yong was getting in their way, its natural for Andrew to have a grudge against him.
So, theres no need for me to step in, right? From the current situation, its no different from the original.
In other words, if I leave it alone, Kim Soo-yong will kill the assassin on his own.
However, Im curious about something.
In the game, we were able to catch the assassin, but his identity wasnt revealed.
I remember players cursing at the game developers for not revealing his identity.
Of course, I was one of them. Tsk! Lets just stay still.
Theres no need to risk revealing his identity.
Even if I stay still, I wont be in danger.
Besides, they probably dont even know that I killed Gay and Dai, and they must be under the impression that I only fell during the evaluation mission.
Well, if theres one thing that bothers me, its that I exchanged information with the church about that.
Since I did it with the Ashard Unit, Im sure I wont have to worry too much about it.
Andrew has no reason to kill me over something like that.
Thinking that, I walked towards the lecture hall, and people around me looked at me curiously.
I know exactly why theyre staring.
Its probably because of the band thats attached to my neck.
Still, just in case, I turned up the volume and listened carefully.
Hey, did you hear? Kane went on a date with a really pretty girl yesterday?.
Oh, I heard about that. I heard shes not just pretty, shes a goddess.
Wow, damn. Im so jealous. Look at that band on his neck. Isnt he trying to cover up a kiss mark? They must have really had a good time yesterday.
Hey, but more importantly, I heard that girl he was with at the bar was not just one person, but several people.
Damn. Some guys dont even have one girlfriendI think thats why they came up with the one-person law for guys like that.
Agreed. Why do we feel so miserable when we talk like this?
After overhearing their conversation, I turned the volume back to its original setting.
Wait, why did rumors spread about me and Constellations date yesterday?
Our date with Constellation was only six hours at most.
But the rumor about it spread throughout the entire school in just one day.
Even the contents of Constellation being drunken conversation included.
I felt like I was going through a crisis, but there was nothing I could do about it now that people around me knew.
Of course, it was unfair to say that I was dating multiple people, but rumors always tend to get exaggerated.
Besides, it wasnt like I had to care whether they believed it or not.
Ignoring the gazes of the surrounding students, I walked to the classroom and opened the door without hesitation.
