What Do You Mean My Cute Disciples Are Yanderes?-Novel

(MC POV)

"I'm… Er… I guess I should say I'm honestly really flattered that Senpai thinks so highly of me, but I'm really just a nobody in regards to the Origin Wielders' hierarchy. I never even had any idea how to make liquid Origin before I met Senpai so I wouldn't have any idea about what's going on here either..."

I grimaced, "Well… I don't really have anyone else I can ask about this either so the first person I thought of was Muon… "

Muon chuckled, "Like I said, Senpai, I'm really flattered that you think so highly of me. But from what I can tell, this potion that Senpai made is beyond my understanding, so I'm afraid I really can't help much in this regard."

"I see… Sorry to trouble you, Muon."

"No, Senpai, I apologize for not being much of a help despite being arrogant enough to tell Senpai that you could rely on me. If only I knew more about it, I could help Senpai better… Oh! Should I ask Goddess Muenia again?"

I raised an eyebrow,"Would that be alright? I'm not sure if there's a limit to how many times you can talk to her or something like that?"

Muon shook her head, "Not at all. The only problem is that we don't know when Goddess Muenia would answer. We might have just been lucky that day and asked Goddess Muenia just as she was going through our prayers, so she answered us immediately."

I considered it for a while before finally deciding not to, "It's fine, Muon, we'll figure this one out ourselves. I would hate to be the reason you lose your standing with your patron for asking such inane questions that have nothing to do with your work."

"But it's really fine though? Senpai really isn't a bother at all."

"No, it really is fine. If we really have a problem with this again, then I'll impose on you, alright?"

"If Senpai puts it that way… I understand."

Since Muon wasn't able to help much with that and it was already night time, I quickly wrapped up my meeting with her and said our farewells.

I teleported myself back to my room, ready to turn in for the night.

I expected my disciples to be there waiting for me but surprisingly, only Tsuki was there.

"Aniue, good evening~ I hope I'm not disturbing you?" She greeted me.

"Oh, not at all. Where are the others?"

She poked her fingers together, "I asked? them to give me some time with Aniue for a bit… So they're waiting outside…"

I raised an eyebrow at her, "Oh? So what do you need me for?"

"Ummm… Before that… What did Muon say about Aniue's potion?"

Hmm? How did she know I went to Muon's place? Ah, I guess she must have gone to Brendan to check on me and my alchemist must have told her about it and the problems we were facing.

Since we were kind of relying on Tsuki to create the liquid Origin that is meant for my use, it's no wonder she's worried too.

"Unfortunately, she couldn't help us on that since she isn't really familiar with it either. We'll need to figure this out on our own. Why?"

Tsuki looked like she was considering something for a moment before turning back to me, "In that case… Could I get some of that Origin liquid, Aniue? I think that if I could study it like brother Brendan had, I might gain more understanding about this power Aniue had granted me."

I would really like to point out that I was not the one who granted her the ability to manipulate Origin Energy but I suppose this is not the time to argue about that.

I took out another vial from my storage ring and materialised more Origin Liquid within it simply by willing it into existence before handing it to her.

My little sister received the vial from me as though she had just got her hands on some kind of priceless treasure.

Actually, now that I think about it, Origin Liquid really is kind of priceless, isn't it?

It can literally transform anything into everything you can think of. There is no restriction on its usage and even the common mortal should be able to use it.

Kind of scary now that I think about it.

"Thank you, Aniue! I definitely won't let you down!"

Saying those words, she disappeared in a puff of smoke.

That was kind of unnecessarily dramatic, don't you think?

Right at that moment, the doors to my room opened and my girls walked in, all dressed in revealing lingerie and looking at me with desire clear on their faces.

"Master~~" They purred, closing in on me like predators stalking their prey.

Well… Just another normal night for me, I suppose.

(Tsuki POV)

After I managed to secure the liquid from Aniue, I teleported myself to the alchemy room where brother Brendan was waiting.

"Did you get it?" He asked.

I showed him the vial of Origin that Aniue had made for me, "Aniue is busy with his other disciples now, so now would be the best time."

He frowned at me, "Are you sure you want to go through with this? Though the effects seem to be lesser when you still retain most of your memories, we can't say for sure, you know?"

I raised an eyebrow at the alchemist, "What's this? Are you suddenly concerned about my well being? I know for a fact that none of you actually care about me in that capacity yet so there's no need to pretend, you know?"

Though Aniue's disciples might show me a smile and say kind words to me, I've spent enough time amongst two-faced corporation backstabbers to know when a smile is sincere or not.

Aniue's disciples might not hate me but they aren't exactly welcoming either, they don't exactly trust me yet.

If I had to guess, someone must have betrayed them or Aniue before, so they were being vigilant of anyone new in Aniue's life.

In fact, even though Aniue might have unconditional trust towards them, I most definitely don't.

In the other world, Aniue had lost his life to someone he called a 'friend' after all.

I have no doubt that Aniue's disciples were also aware that I do not trust them either. The instant they show any intent of malice towards Aniue, I would do everything in my power to wipe them from existence, just like what I did to those scum in the other world.

That's why I don't blame them for this attitude towards me either.

Brendan rolled his eyes at me, "It's not you I am worried about. If something happens to you, Master would be upset."

"There's no need for you to worry about Aniue punishing you. I already obtained the liquid from Aniue myself so you could just say that I did this on my own so it had nothing to do with you. You don't need to fear Aniue hating you."

"That's also not what I am concerned about either. It's the fact that Master would be upset that worries me. If punishing me would make Him feel better, that's a small price to pay. But knowing that this caused Master to be unhappy is something unacceptable."

"Hmph, at least you do care about Aniue. But unfortunately for you people, I am willing to take that risk if it means sacrificing myself if Aniue can benefit from it. Now give me the bottle."

Brendan handed the potion begrudgingly and I emptied it without hesitation.

Now I just need to wait and see what…

Eh?

I'm in space now…
