Chapter 198 – Yandere vs Yandere

Takei arrived at school in a hurry because he didn't want to be near that yandere-like creature anymore. There was a certain amount of weirdness that he could handle, but Mitsuki was going above and beyond that threshold.

The clinginess and possessiveness was weird enough, but it was even weirder when she knowingly tried to attack him even though he had a girlfriend.

Takei quickly spotted a familiar head in a sea of unknown people. The person in question had long blonde hair and had otherworldly beauty, so there was no mistaking her. He rushed towards his girlfriend with breathtaking speed. "Akari! Help me! The world is going to end!"

When he caught up to her and almost ended up tackling her, Akari was confused as to why Takei was acting so odd today. "Slow down please. Why is the world going to end?"

"So basically..."

Takei explained the whole situation with Mitsuki to her, which resulted in Akari falling into a trance of deep thought.

What we're basically fighting is a super strong yandere girl who's obsessed with Takei to the point where she believes they're married. Oh how fun it is to have a popular boyfriend who doesn't know it...

How should we solve this problem then? Hm, there might be that. Okay, let's go with this solution for now and see how it turns out.

"Husbandddddd? Where are youuuuu??? Oh, there you are!"

Before either of them had noticed it, Mitsuki had finally caught up with Takei and was now steadily approaching the two of them. Seeing Mitsuki come forward with such an eerie smile made Takei shiver in his boots.

"Akari..."

"Don't worry, I got this."

He noticed that Akari had a plan for this situation, so he naturally relaxed when he realized that this was a plan crafted by the very goddess herself.

Out of nowhere, Akari jumped into Takei's chest and wrapped her arms around him tightly. "Takei, Takei, Takei! I missed you so much! Where have you been? My heart was splitting into two without you! Is that another woman I smell on you? Ehhhh? Aren't I your wife? We are married, right?"

Akari had a crazed expression on her face, but Takei could tell that it was all an act to deceive Mitsuki.

"Yeah, we're married and super happy with each other!" Takei played along with Akari's plan.

Mitsuki saw the scene that was unfolding in front of her and had a less than amused expression on her face. "Stop stealing my husband, you wench!"

She ran forward and tried to pry Akari off of Takei, but Akari's grip was far too strong.

"He's my husband, you homewrecker! Get away from him right now..." Akari glared at her. "I'm going to erase you from this world if you don't stop messing with my husband. I'm going to destroy your very being on an atomic level if you keep trying to steal Takei from me. I'm going to ELIMINATE YOU AND MAKE SURE YOU WISH THAT YOU WERE NEVER BORN."

Akari was getting a little bit too into the act near the end, so Takei pulled her away to try and stop a commotion from happening.

"Okay, okay... Calm down now. Sorry, Mitsuki. I'm taken, so bye!"

He ran into the school with Akari and left the speechless Mitsuki to stand there with her jaw open.

***

Although Akari put on a good act to deceive Mitsuki, it seems that she was not discouraged in the slightest.

During lunch, Mitsuki walked over to Takei's classroom and presented him a homemade bento for lunch. "I woke up extra early to make this for you!"

He felt grateful to receive lunch from another person who had put a lot of effort into it, but he was receiving lunch from a stalker that had been following him around.

"Hey hey hey! Takei, I didn't even go to bed last night and spent all night prepping for your luxurious lunch! I filled this bento box with a lot of love, so please eat it happily!"

Akari came up and blocked Mitsuki from seeing Takei while also presenting Takei with a bento box of her own.

"Ah, thank you for your hard work." Takei grabbed the bento from Akari. "Sorry Mitsuki, I appreciate your effort but I can't take a bento from someone I'm not dating."

Just to put the cherry on top, Akari leaned forward and requested a head pat from Takei. "Do I get a reward?"

"Yes yes, of course." Takei did as she wanted and gently rubbed her head.

"!"

Mitsuki was shocked and extremely jealous at the sight of Takei flirting with another woman. She wanted to interject and say something, but the mood and atmosphere was not allowing her to say anything.

Akari's expression melted into a lazy and satisfied smile as she was getting gently patted by Takei. Although she had been acting the part of a yandere the whole day, this smile was nothing but genuine happiness.

There were no other emotions besides love in Akari's satisfied expression, and that was something that Mitsuki couldn't handle.

"Dear husband, why...?" Mitsuki weakly asked.

Takei could tell that Mitsuki was reaching her breaking point slowly but steadily, so he needed to hammer reality into her as hard as possible.

"I am not your husband and you are not my wife. We're not even classmates. We just go to the same school. I'm sorry, but I can't reciprocate your feelings. Please stop approaching me from now on."

He spoke with a harsh tone and prickly words to make sure that Mitsuki would understand. Takei knew that this wasn't how you treat someone who had good intentions towards you, but he needed to be firm no matter what.

"..."

Mitsuki had a depressed expression on her face after Takei had shut her down completely.

"Pardon me..."

She then left the room quietly without making a ruckus.

Takei thought that she had finally given up, but that wasn't even remotely close to the real situation.

Dear husband, I'll save you from that thieving cat. I'll make you mine at all costs!
