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

(MC POV)

Elaria was obviously really confused by everyone's outburst.

It was clear that all of their ire was directed at me as though I had done something irredeemably wrong.

Elaria turned to me, "E… Eh? What's going on, Onii-sama? Did I do something wrong? Why are they looking at me like that?"

No, no, how are you thinking that they are angry at you? It's pretty obvious that the problematic one is me, right? Why would she even think that she was the problem?

Are you still relying on our World's standard of our brother and sister relationship? I thought that the short time of you being silent was you looking through your memories of this World… Guess you were just being surprised huh…

A few of the crew members surrounded us and one even pulled out an electrified baton to point at me.

"Step away from the Shogun right now!"

I was about to comply when Elaria stepped in front of me protectively, "What are you doing?! How DARE you point that at my Onii-sama?!!! HOW DARE YOU??!!"

Wow… I think this is the first time I'm seeing Elaria this angry…

"Sho… Shogun?"

"Eh… Did… Did she just call him 'Onii-sama'?"

"Doesn't… Doesn't she always call him 'trash' or 'maggot'?"

"What… What's going on?"

Elaria also heard their words and turned to me, her face one of absolute shock.

Right… Let's err… Let's just pause time for now, shall we?

I snapped my fingers and the flow of time stopped for the moment, freezing everyone else in existence except for Elaria and I in place.

"O… Onii-sama? What… What do they mean by that?"

"Err… You might want to look through the memories of us in this World instead of overwriting it with what we have in the original World."

"Eh? Umm… Ok…"

She closed her eyes and did as I asked.

She should quickly realise that our brother and sister relationship in this World is actually really terrible.

Since Cultivation wasn't a thing in this particular Universe, I ended up just sharing a whole bunch of things with her before losing my memories of my past lives. Then because of that, I became a really pathetic and deadbeat brother to her who basically did nothing but leech off the family.

Over the years, she would then slowly start growing more and more frustrated with this World's version of me especially when she still remembered and idolised my previous self.

We then grew apart after that and the me of this World just lived every day without a purpose.

Elaria then suddenly came back one day after having established her empire and dragged me out of my room. She then started kicking me around while keeping me as a pet of sorts, which the other me did not understand why she would do it while the current me knew she was trying to get me to shape up again through the mistreatment.

She was hoping that being mistreated will eventually make me wish to dominate her and turn the tables on her.

The irony was that she was doing almost the same thing as what Tsuki had done to me in the previous life. Despite their differences, they really are similar in quite a number of things eh?

Just as I was thinking about that, I felt a soft thump against my chest.

Looking down, I realised it was Elaria hugging me while putting in quite a bit of strength into the hug.

"Waaaahhhh!! Why is the me of this universe so horrible, Onii-sama!!! Waaahhhh!!"

"E… Eh? Why do you say that? Aren't you really awesome though? You managed to build up a galactic empire by yourself within a single lifetime. Heck, it hasn't even been a decade since you started, in fact."

"Waaaahhhh!! But how can I treat Onii-sama like this?!! Stupid! Stupid!! Stuuuuupid!!"

Ermm… I mean… Even I'm disappointed in this World's version of me, you know? Like if I were to meet him, I would give him a slap on the face to wake him up too.

I patted her head, "It's fine, it's fine. I also think the me of this universe is a little pathetic too. He deserved it."

"Noooo!! Onii-sama already did so much!! So what if you want to just relax for an entire life?! There's nothing wrong with that!!"

Ehh… I mean that was also my plan for this life but I certainly wasn't that much of a slob… I think?

Before I could comfort her again, she looked up at me with fire in her eyes.

"Onii-sama!! Redo!!"

"Err… What? Redo?"

"Yes!! We're redoing this Universe!! I won't accept Onii-sama being disrespected anywhere!! We'll go back and live through this Universe again until we reach here!!"

I shook my head quickly, "That's not possible. That's going to take several years, you know? That won't be fair to everyone else waiting their turn for their date…"

She started stamping her foot cutely while throwing a tantrum, "Noooo!! I can't accept this!! I won't! I won't!!"

"If you want, I could just simply alter reality to change the past instead of having us live through it though…"

"That's not the same, Onii-sama!! I would still remember this universe as the one that treated Onii-sama badly!!"

Umm… To be fair, there are quite a number of other universes where I wasn't really treated well either… For every universe where I succeeded in life, there would also be one where I failed miserably after all…

It's just that I didn't think it would be such a big deal to her…

"Well… I won't be turning back time for us… And I think we can just continue can't we?"

"How am I suppose to be all lovey dovey with Onii-sama then?! These people will keep disturbing us!!"

"Elaria…"

"What?"

"First… You're the Shogun… Your word is literally law. If you were to decree it, everyone would follow it. Second… You have your divinity here… You govern the domain of 'Work'. You can change things to make things work yourself. Like literally…"

Elaria looked up at me, as though thinking over what I said before her face suddenly lit up.

"Oh! Ohhhh! Ohhhhh!!! I know! I know!! Ahahaha! This is actually perfect! This is the best, Onii-sama! Ahahaha! I can do this! That's right! We can continue, Onii-sama!"

Erm… that laugh was a little unsettling but ok…

I snapped my fingers to continue time and Elaria immediately turned to the crew member who pointed his electrified baton at me.

In one swift motion, she reached into her coat and pulled out a pistol, shooting him in between the eyes.

The guy wobbled once before collapsing on the deck, dead.

"Nobody… And I repeat. Nobody, gets to disrespect my Onii-sama. Got it?"

…

…

That was definitely not what I expected to happen…
