What do you mean my cute disciples are Yanderes?

(Lian Li POV)

Things were going quite smoothly right now with nothing too unexpected happening. Lilith and Muon were both very thorough in their training to make sure all of us were fully prepared for this event today.

The only 'problem' was that Master was also watching us, something that both vexed and excited us at the same time.

Naturally we would not be able to torment any opponents we come across since Master would definitely start questioning us. But to know that we are also able to show off our best side to Master… That fact alone was worth it~

I'm sure that right now, Master was looking at me take down all these pathetic little existences who dared call themselves Origin Wielders like they earned it. Knowing that fact made me feel all warm and happy inside.

I looked down at my next victim… Ahem… I mean my next opponent.

Right now, thanks to the constant announcement of my wins, almost everyone was aware of me and most either avoided or teamed up against me.

The good thing was that they did not announce the fact that I was not an Origin Wielder, allowing me to continue surprising my victims-- I mean my opponents, with my divine domain.

Even for the current victim… Ah… Opponent… It was no different.

He tried to attack me by manipulating the reality around me but I had quickly expanded my domain to control the concept of space in this area.

When my target realised what I had done, I had already eliminated his concept of life from existence and sent him out of the competition, granting me another win.

Ehehehe~ That's what you get, little trash~ You're nothing but a stepping stone for me to show off to Master~ Ahhhh~ Master is definitely watching me now! I can feel it!

At the next moment, another picture of me appeared up in the sky alongside my defeated opponent, right before it was replaced by a picture of Manami with her own victim.

It seems like none of us have been eliminated yet.

Although that was a good thing, I can't help but hope that one of them might be eliminated by someone else before we reach the final few participants. Especially since in this competition, there can only be one person occupying the number one spot.

We don't need the prize of being the next in line to go to the vacation World since we could just ask Master for it. But the main thing was beating everyone because surely if I were to win it, Master would lavish me with praise!

That's why… I'm sorry everyone, but I will definitely go all out against them if I were to come across any of them.

I'm pretty sure the others also have the same thoughts as I do, so I definitely don't feel guilty about making this decision. We already know that if we had to pick between Master or each other, all of us would definitely abandon everyone else just to be with Master.

It's only due to the fact that Master's love for us was infinite that I even put up with them. That, plus the fact that they could help me spread the knowledge of Master's greatness more easily than I would have on my own~

Just as I was thinking about looking for my next target, there was a huge explosion that shook the land around me, prompting me to look towards the direction of the sound to see a giant mushroom cloud in the distance.

In the very next moment, Elaria's face appeared with an entire row of victims beside her picture, making me wonder just what exactly did she do to deal with so many opponents at once?

I won't say that I had expected her to be weak since I have seen how much she has grown in this week alone, but I definitely had the thought that some of my fellow sisters might not pose a challenge for me.

Making a mental note to be wary of her when I face her later, I continued flying around the area while searching for a new target.

At least an hour had passed since the start of the battle royale and things were still chaotic with explosions, warps and reality shattering events happening all around the World.

I was in the middle of flying towards one such explosion when I came across Brendan who seemed to be busy placing bottles in a pattern on the ground, which prompted me to pause in my flight to look at what he was doing.

Brendan seemed to have noticed my presence as he turned to look up at me.

If this had been any other time, he would have greeted me with a small bow and a polite smile.

But right now, the only action he did was a small nod of his head while his hands went behind his back, an indication that he was prepared for combat.

Oh? Even Brendan is looking to be quite a dangerous opponent.

I smiled at him, "I think it would be beneficial for all of us if we only started fighting amongst ourselves after we have dealt with everyone else, don't you agree?"

Brendan returned my smile with one of his own, "That was what I had in mind as well, senior sister. Though I wasn't sure if you thought the same way."

"Oh? How bold of you, Brendan. Are you insinuating that I wouldn't be smart enough to think of something like that?"

"No, I'm insinuating that you might want to eliminate me earlier to prevent more competition later."

My smile widened slightly as I will admit, that thought did briefly cross my mind.

Still, the correct decision would be to leave each other for last as Master was still watching us. As much as I wanted them out of the competition earlier, I doubt Master would be impressed to see me turn on Brendan right now, which was probably why Brendan wasn't attacking me either.

I decided to change the topic instead, "So what are you doing with those?"

Brendan pursed his lips, "I think it would be better if you left quickly, senior sister. I am going to poison this area and everyone within about a mile radius from here would be affected and it would be quite painful, to be honest."

"And yourself?"

"I have a counter for it, of course."

I can't help but feel impressed.

No doubt if I had chosen to attack him right then, he would have activated the trap and dragged me into the trap too. How devious.

I nodded at him, "Very well, I shall leave you to it. I will look for prey elsewhere. Good luck, Brendan."

"Good luck, senior sister."

I flew out of the poison area and a few seconds later, Brendan's face appeared in the sky alongside an entire column of his victims.

Ahahaha~ How scary, Brendan~

Everyone is working hard to impress Master it seems~ Guess I have to get a little bit more serious too~

Watch me, Master! I am still going to be your number one disciple!!
