Yandere Monster Evolution: My Blind Wife Will Become a Demonic Queen Chapter 7: Cute

"What!!!"

Too shocked by the tir being displayed on the screen, I unknowingly let out a shout. I turned my eyes toward Viora, and she seed to be even more dumbfounded than .

The smile that was visible all day long faded, and her brows furrowed slightly. She must be confused by my sudden exclamation.

Well, I couldn’t do anything about it. After all, the system was basically counting the ti of my death.

"Uh... I... I was just thinking about sothing, and without knowing, the word just ca out of my mouth by itself...."

I tried to give a valid excuse. "Sorry," and as I apologized for it, a small giggle escaped her lips.

"He... He... He..."

Once again, she turned back to stare at the ceiling. However, before drifting into her own imagination, she said one word that made my heart run fast and my mind freeze.

"Ke...ot..."

Cute? Cute?! CUTE?!

My mind couldn’t process this single word. In front of this word, the threat tir looked nothing more than a simple sentence.

Alongside my brain, my body was also kind of paralyzed. My eyes widened a little, and a smile was slowly surfacing on my face.

After a little bit of ti, I surfaced from my frozen state. I was finally able to think again.

’She called cute? Isn’t she the one who is... like really, really cute.’

And she is telling that while she is cute in my eyes, I also am cute in hers? Now, that is a bit of an overstatent, but if she is saying so, then I think I am... just a little, maybe?

Without realizing it, the terror and shock that I felt for a split second had vanished completely. Now, only the feeling of warmth, joy, and sothing I don’t even know were left behind.

But it didn’t take much ti for all those feelings to disappear and the fear of looming death to resurface again.

I can’t just keep staying still and wait for the ti to end. I have to do sothing. I have to make it stop sohow.

’System, show the tir.’

[72 Hours Remaining.

Note: The Host has to ’Link’ a ’Wife’ before the ti runs out. Otherwise....]

’Alright, alright, so having a wife will save ?’

I let out a heavy sigh and forced myself to calm down a little bit. The system is acting like getting a wife is as easy as buying groceries.

As much as I hate it, I don’t even have the courage to walk up to soone and ask them to marry , let alone soone already suffering like Viora.

They will only think that I am saying that to insult them. I will probably get a slap on my cheek instead of, ’Yes, let’s get married!’

I don’t even know what the system will gain by setting up with soone. Could the system sohow require emotional connection?

No... that sounded ridiculous. But then why else would it force sothing as specific as a wife? More importantly, a disabled one.

As that thought crossed my mind, my eyes automatically drifted toward Viora. She was still lying there peacefully. She wasn’t smiling anymore, but that doesn’t an she wasn’t looking happy.

As I looked, my mind began to make up instinctive survival routes by itself.

’What if...’

Slap!

My hand t my face. Honestly, that slap was enough to stop those selfish thoughts from going any further, and I quickly turned my face away from her.

’No. No, no.’

What the hell was I even thinking? She is already suffering enough. She is blind, and she can barely speak. I can’t. I can’t take advantage of soone like her just to save myself.

’That would make worse than I already am.’

I was trying to fight my own brain for those thoughts that dared to pop into my mind that I didn’t notice Viora had heard slapping myself.

"Sl...ap..." She began. "Hu...rt...?"

Her peaceful and joyful expression changed in the blink of an eye. Hints of concern and worry began to appear on her face.

’She is asking if it hurts? Of course, it does. But I am not gonna tell her that.’

"No, it doesn’t hurt," I said, but I didn’t want to end it just there, so I continued, "Well, if you are wondering, I only slapped myself to keep from sleeping. There isn’t anything else to it."

Just what kind of magic or drug takes over that whenever I look at her or talk to her, I don’t want to stop.

"O...ke..."

She closed her eyes and placed both her hands on her belly. "Gud... Ni...t..."

Good night? But the sun is still shining brightly in the sky. "Goodnight, but it isn’t the ti yet. It is afternoon at most, and the sun is still shining."

For a few seconds, Viora remained still, and then she suddenly opened her eyes and pulled the cover over her face.

Through the fabric, I saw her face turn to the other side. ’Is she embarrassed?’

I wanted to chuckle at her reaction, but I forced myself not to do so. Or else, she will hear it. And she might not like it.

"Well, if you want to sleep, then you can. The sun has nothing to do with sleeping."

"..."

I also settled down on my bed and began to check every function of the system, which was basically NONE. Whenever I tried to see sothing, the sa text would appear and then disappear.

[Status: Unmarried!]

[Status: Single!]

[Status: (...)]

’So to even check sothing, I need a wife? Hah, I thought I got the best cheat ever. But this cheat cos with a side effect.’
