Chapter 284 - Xaya's Rules
"Master Xaya…"
"Just say what you want to say."
Noe approached Xaya with respect and a little awkwardness as her way of calling Xaya sounded just too respectful.
That was why Xaya just borrowed Xiaoxiao\'s words from earlier and told her to speak what lied on Noe\'s heart.
It was convenient for Noe as she felt like the suspense of silence between them would make things harder for her. She gathered enough courage and let out all that lingered on her heart.
"I know my status and potential. I know how insignificant I and my origins are compared to the rest."
A strange expression bloomed on Xaya\'s face as everyone seemed like opening themselves nowadays. But was there a need for a special moment or occassion to go for it? Did Noe really need to wait or even be scared of stating her opinion?
Xaya was fond of Noe after both of them spent some time together to train with the death energy. It was not really the same feeling like she had to Xiaoxiao, but Noe was a hard-working woman and her stance was already different from the beginning.
Rather than trying to somewhat get on the husband\'s side and make him notice her, Noe decided to just go for the strength and let the future do its thing.
She also had no way of even competing with others anyway.
Nonetheless, Noe was still in love with the husband. She knew that he wouldn\'t never give up on her or do his best to keep the whole party together.
"I want to become your disciple like others. There is no point in trying to work with my race that is nothing much and with the death energy that I can\'t even properly use on my own. I want to follow both you and Kyoya! Maybe in the future… I would be a mistress… too…"
"The husband will never accept any mistresses."
"I see…"
"If he were to accept someone, then he would treat them like me and Xiaoxiao."
At this moment, Noe just raised her head and looked at Xaya with shock and wide eyes. It felt like the only thing that was lacking here was the husband\'s tears that surely would come out from this moment.
His wife still heavily limited others\' chances and one would need to face her, but her words weren\'t filled with any killing intent.
In a way, wasn\'t it normal since Noe was a good disciple? However, anyone trying to just go for the husband\'s heart would be faced by a yandere wife!
Noe already had her encounter with Xaya, which was unique because of the circumstances, so she had a different one. She was keeping things different and Xaya could see that Noe was not a threat to the husband\'s married nor normal life.
"You can become my disciple."
Xaya took out the deathbringer disciple card, then passed it to Noe whose hands treated it like treasure. She looked happy just from this alone and ready to work hard for Master and Kyoya!
Before any effects could take place, Xaya\'s eyes turned a little dangerous.
"I don\'t know how I will treat you in the future."
"..."
"You might be my disciple or maybe someone closer."
"..."
"That\'s all because I can not go against the husband\'s path."
Xaya\'s eyes were literally blinding with violet light that was lethal. It, at least, felt lethal to Noe and she stood frozen while looking in those deadly yet beautiful jewels. She understood that there was no way for anyone to become number 1 with such a close wife.
Just thinking of becoming one might be deadly and the worst!
"It\'s good that you understand. I can not go against the husband\'s path, but the same goes for him. If someone were to break my rules, I wouldn\'t hold back. It\'s hard to break those because the husband wants to have a big family in one house and he also surrounds himself with smart women, but I can\'t tell the future. I am not that dipshi Ejolle nor I would like to have such power."
"I understand! I really do…"
As Noe got a little too scared, Xaya calmed her heart down and turned to her more approachable self. She waited for Noe to take the new path, which wouldn\'t be much different considering they have the death energy.
[You have become Death Knight.]
"..."
"..."
A darkness energy began to completely swallow Noe the moment this message appeared in both her and Xaya\'s eyes. A new class and also a new body began to slowly form on Noe\'s self.
While the whole transformation kept going, Xaya casually looked at his disciple.
She was a woman and someone who openly voiced her affection to the husband. It was already something displeasing, but Noe also had her own assets. She was calm, hard-working and had also enough leadership skills.
It was a good party member to have in the team and Xaya never could spot a feeling within her that would go against \'her rules\'.
"I like the current you, Noe."
"Thank you…" Noe just thanked as it felt somewhat special.
"You might think I went too hard on you, but more women have joined us lately. The husband even prepared the business card and thought of ways to stop all his charm. Why should he think about it if he has me?"
"T-true…"
"I realized that I have become too lenient lately and you became a victim of that. I won\'t speak about your future, but my husband also likes you."
People and the world have forgotten about a yandere wife. She became too lenient, but the past became vivid yet again within her mind after Leena mentioned the early days. It had no much effect on Xaya, however.
The husband\'s adventure would continue normally and all those women would have freedom of noticing the husband\'s charm.
After all, it was the source of Xaya\'s pride. She was the wife of such a man! However, if anyone thought too much or tried to break the yandere wife\'s rules, then death was the only option!
"Show me your new body."
"I… I would like the husband to touch me… first…"
"Was it a joke?"
"S-sorry."
Noe bowed with her new form, then let out faint laughter as the new chapter began on her adventure! She felt happy and even closer with Xaya now that she became a death knight which was a unique class only to her!
At least for now.
Anyway, it meant that there was a lot of hard work that needed to be done and it was a great chance to become closer with Xaya.
"It\'s like a challenge. Only by facing those can I get stronger and achieve what I want."
"Husband also likes challenges."
"What about you, Xaya?"
"Me too."
