What Do You Mean My Cute Disciples Are Yanderes?-Chapter 1254 Let’s Just Take Over
(MC POV)
"Ehehehe~ I'm eloping with Master~"
"Well, I'm glad you're at least enjoying it," I chuckled while leading Eris through the back alleys of the city. "You do know that normally this would be quite a disaster for you, right?"
Eris tilted her head at me, "I have Master here with me, how would that be a disaster? I think the rest who decided to sell me out are the ones experiencing the disaster~"
Does she mean like she's going to take revenge against them or something? In that case it would certainly be true that it was a disaster for them instead.
If Eris were to use the same power she possessed in the fight with the demon lord, this entire country… Nay, this entire World could be cut in half.
Truth be told, this World was just something I made up anyway so it doesn't really matter if the World gets destroyed. I'm more worried about whether I should continue to act like I didn't realise they had planned all this together or reveal that I already figured it out.
The fact that they weren't raising it up meant that they probably wanted to keep up the ruse for now so I guess maybe I should just keep my mouth shut.
We were almost nearing the gates of the city when I felt a tug on my arm.
"Master? Could I ask what our current plan of action is?" Eris asked.
"Aside from escaping from here?"
"Mmhmm~ I mean it's pretty much a given we can escape right? But what do we do after that?"
I took a moment to consider what to say, "Hmm… For scenarios like this… The usual would be for us to be on the run for a long time. Since the entire country is after us, the safest place for us to go would ironically be back at the demon lord's territory."
Eris made a face at me, "Ehhhh? We're going back there? Didn't we just come from there after beating that stupid demon lord? And won't this trip take us at least a few months?"
"Actually, it'll take us longer than that because we would need to avoid the major roads and cities since the guards would be looking for us. So I'm guessing this would take perhaps close to a year and a half if we're lucky."
"Then wouldn't our date already be over?"
"Indeed it will. I can fast forward time again if you'd like?"
"But why can't we just go somewhere remote and I don't know… Start a farm, maybe?"
I smiled at her, "That's possible too, but by my estimates, if we were to travel to the safest and most suitable location for a farm, it would take us roughly about the same time and we would end up getting found within the next five years."
"Ehhh… Then what would we do once we reach the demon lord's territory?"
"Well… There we can also start a farm as you suggested or live within one of the cities where we have to constantly be vigilant since with the absence of the demon lord, the land has pretty much descended into chaos. Otherwise, you can also become the new demon lord and unite the demons again before the kingdom sends more heroes to subdue us."
"Eeeehhhh… That's even more troublesome! All of this requires us to do so much work over a long period of time! Isn't there something that we can do to get rid of this stupid betrayal problem today?"
I get the reason she wanted to end this quickly was because our date was on a time limit and we can't just spend the next year or so adventuring out in this World selfishly…. But if you ask me if there's a way to end this quickly…
"I suppose if you were to just take over the kingdom right now and depose the nobility, there wouldn't be anyone to go against us anymore, hahaha," I joked.
Of course, that's the most drastic action that we could take but naturally, something like that shouldn't be the solution right?
"That's it! As expected of Master!! Let's do that!!" Eris exclaimed, leaping up to her feet.
E… Eh? I… I was joking though? Did she really think that I was seriously suggesting we do that?
Before I could explain that it was a joke, Eris had already leapt out of the alley we had been hiding to surprise a bunch of guards on patrol.
"It's… It's the hero! And the Saint as well!! Sound the alarm! We found them! Quickly arrest the--"
The guard did not manage to finish his words before Eris had manipulated the 'path' of the guard's head to be separated from his body.
The lifeless corpse toppled onto the ground and Eris materialised her sword in her hand.
She took a look at the blade before making the decision to change its style to match the demon lord's instead.
"Alright you fuckers! It's time to pay the price for betraying me and my Master!! Say your prayers and beg Master for mercy because I ain't giving you any!!"
That's definitely Bait influencing her…
She dashed forward and slashed her sword in an arc, instantly decapitating half of the guards in a single swing.
"Wahahaha! How do you like that?! Everyone who betrayed my Master and I, tell them all to prepare their own necks to be chopped! Especially that little king that's sitting his ass on his little throne and his little spawn! If he doesn't obediently hand over his throne to Master tonight, I'm going to chop up his son in front of him! Wahahaha!"
What? Why me? Even though it's just for a day, I still don't want it…
She then swung her sword again and the remaining guards were blown away from her, all of them breaking bones from the impact but at least they were still alive.
Somehow even that seems a bit too much for Bait… Was this a combination between the others as well? That's pretty brutal.
Unless… She's trying to play it as though she had transformed into the demon lord version of her or something. I guess she took inspiration from that evil personality of hers and she also felt this World was like a game so killing these people did not matter?
I mean… I definitely can't imagine Eris laughing maniacally like that while she continued decapitating all those poor, defenceless guards…
Well… Since this was the path she has chosen for herself, I shall follow her to the end.
But what was she planning to do once we reach the castle where Bait and the others should stop us?
Guess I'll find out later…
