The Yandere Cooks for the Villain in Each World

Arc 2 Chapter 5: The CEO Is My Lover

Empty.

Nothing shot out and Jiro was spared, just as Sage had predicted. 

When spinning the barrel, she had spun it in such a way so that she knew the first shot would not contain a bullet.

Quickly she spin it again. 

Seconds later she pointed the gun towards her own head, her fingers swiftly reaching for the trigger. 

She was not worried in the least.

She knew something else Jiro was unaware of, she was the villain of the story, meaning she was not allowed to die before the story reached its climax. 

Unhesitatingly she was about to pull the trigger.

"STOP!" The man desperately tried to jump up and stop the strange beauty but alas, his wounds kept him from doing so. Still the strange beauty thankfully did stop.

"Hmmm...?"

"I said...stop... yo-you win..." The man looked down, clenching his fists. 

He had lost.

He couldn't help it.

Although he despised those eyes that caused him countless sleepless nights. 

When he saw the strange woman point the gun towards her own head, he instantly grew scared, terrified. He felt a fear deep in the pit of his heart. 

Although the woman was a stranger, it was as though he could not bear to see the woman's blood drain out of her body as her lifeless eyes closed never to be opened again. 

Such a thought scared him more than being with the woman. 

Thus he lost, allowing himself to be caught. Even though something deep down inside told him it was a terrible mistake...

Something also confused him about the woman, although she had been swift in twisting the barrel, he had noticed that she had twisted it in a special way.

When the gun was pointed towards him he could already tell it held no bullet. It was an old trick not very well known with.

If the gun was loaded then it was possible to see a little sliver of metal corresponding with the cartilage from the rear of the chamber, that was not present when she had pointed the gun at him...

He was certain she had spun it in such a way to avoid there being a bullet in the cartilage.

Therefore he had already figured out her little trick, she had no intention to shoot him.

This lead him to the question of 'Why?'

Had the beauty planned to not harm him from the beginning?

If that was true, whoever she was she really was a strange woman. Claiming to give him a job, pay, a home, and even pay off his debt...

For the first time in his life, he was treated kindly, he felt as though his dark soul was exposed to the feeling of a warm light.

If the warmth he felt was really the same as his dreams though...

Then wouldn't he face immeasurable suffering...? 

Therefore, unlike in his dreams, he decided not to chase after the light. 

Instead he would accept her propositions but he wouldn't get any closer than that. Thinking this, only one thing was left.

"...What is your name, strange beauty?"

The woman emotionlessly answered. "Sage."

"Sage..." He quickly memorized the name.

"And what do you want to be called?" She'd already been told his name by the system, still  perhaps he had a nickname or something he liked to be called. Besides it's not like she could simply start calling him by name without asking for it first.

"Ha, I have nothing left I wish to carry on from old self, not even my name... Call me whatever you wish." The man answered bitterly. 

'If that's the case.'  "Hmmm.... Jun."

"...."

Upon hearing the name the man's soul again shook. 

Although he didn't know the name, it somehow felt deeply ingrained into his soul.

"Alright, from now on I am Jun your serva-secretary." The man's face quickly turned red as he wondered what he was about to say.

"Good." Emotionlessly Sage spoke not acknowledging the man's flustered look. Instead she put her arm around the man's firm waist as she helped his tall body to the car.

Even though he had just agreed to keep a business type relationship with his new boss, his face couldn't help but turn even redder upon being so close to the beautiful face, still the beauty looked forward seemingly unaffected from supporting the muscular man.

Slowly the two got seated in the car as Sage started to drive back to B city.

*Desert Note: Hello my dear Readers, I hope everyone is feeling ok and not getting sick. Stay safe you all. Remember to take vitamin D, drink lot's of water, and sleep! 

Love you guys (ღゝ◡╹)ノ♡

Also, this chapter took some research. What I described with checking if the bullet will shoot out is actually true. I wanted to make it realistic (｡•̀ᴗ-)✧

And poor Jun, before even starting he's already lost!
