The Obsessive Male Leads Want to Eat Me Alive - Chapter 70

━━━━⊱⋆⊰━━━━

“Hurry up, get rid of it!”

“You must not leave even a speck of dust behind. Absolutely clean!”

“Hey, shake the ostrich duster a little more passionately. Would you like Miss Annette to have an image of ‘Larva’ as a dust hole?!”

The Larva were in the midst of cleaning.

The vicious-looking men were all sweeping away with a small ostrich duster, a cute strawberry patterned mop, and a broom— everyone focused on wiping, sweeping, and mopping.

At that time, one of the members of Larva, who was mopping the floor for the 18th time, fell down while swearing, “Shit!”.

“Is there any sense in doing this?”

A muscular man grabbed his shoulder and said sternly.

“Listen carefully… It is said that Miss Annette called the Master ‘Murderer’.”

“……!”

Faintly, the fallen member of Larva’s pupils shook.

—A man whose nickname was ‘Murderer.’

And he worked in a place so gloomy and dirty that it could be called ‘the home of a murderer’?

Ah, what would be the fate of that man?

‘He’ll be dumped, he’ll totally be dumped!’

“―Wipe the hardwood floor until it smells like flowers.”

Hence, the fallen man got up with a sad expression on his face and started mopping the floor for the 19th time.

The image of a ‘slightly outdated pub’ had become sparkling, just like the reception of a hotel.

It was like an upscale pub.

In particular, Larva’s initial ‘L’ scattered light in the middle of the guild headquarters, exuding a sense of professional management.

Regardless of the ‘brutal’ things they do;

The people of Larva, everyone was sincere.

Their master, who had been in unrequited love for all his life (and for only one woman), shall hopefully find love today…!

Then, the door opened and Kyle came in.

“Welcome, Master!”

“I just finished cleaning. Hahaha, take a look!”

Crazy-looking big men wearing cleaning aprons and head towels went whoosh! They lined up and greeted him.

Kyle looked around suspiciously.

Right then.

Ae-aeeng— A fly was trying to sit on the table, but it slipped and fell (the fly itself had a puzzled expression on its face).(TL/N: my, my, they polished the table so well that the fly couldn’t even land properly. Where can I get such cleaning service??)

“…Perfect.”

He didn’t expect it this much.

He just wanted to give Annette a clean impression.

His purpose of inviting her here today was clear.

Like a fool, he said that he was a ‘research student’ and that he was Kine.

He wanted to confess that he was Kyle Winston, the boy who had previously proposed to her.

And he was going to explain that Larva was different from the rumors.

That the rumors were quite exaggerated.

He wanted to at least show it as it is.

That’s why he invited her.

To here.

“It’s not over yet… You have a secret weapon. Kekek.”

A man with only one-eye had his eye lit meaningfully.

And clap clap!

He clapped vigorously.

Then his vicious-looking comrades brought a bunch of red roses and decorated the area. Although they didn’t have the skill to arrange it beautifully, it was gorgeous enough as there were a lot of flowers.

—It was a massive volume attack.

“…….”

Kyle blushed in embarrassment. He said as he covered his face with a big hand, like he was going ‘Oh my God’.

“Is there even a need for this?”

Roses in the guild headquarters full of men.

“Did you hear that the Master was called ‘The Murderer’?”

“Did she say that the leader of Larva is ‘terrifying and terrible’?”

“What are you doing?”

Between the fingers in his gloves, mad green eyes flashed.

“Fill the roses up all the way to the entrance right now.”

“…Yes!”

After a while.

Kyle, who was left alone at the guild headquarters, wiped his face nervously.

‘Will she come today?’

“I hope you don’t wait too long.”

How could he not wait?

Except for a very brief period of his life, Kyle has always wanted and longed for her.

It was Annette, who had no idea how he felt.

The waiting was always bitter and sweet.

…Even at this moment.

Kyle looked around and suddenly smiled, saying;

“It’s a day where the Larva cleaned all day.”

In the morning, he cleaned out the dark guild ‘Delphi’.

Because the guy who aimed for {Little Bakery} was from Delphi.

How dare he demand 20%, no, 10%… No… 5% of Little Bakery’s  sales  (there was a cascading deduction thanks to the work of the fearless pot). It took just three hours to wipe out those bastards.

‘If I had left them alone, they would have come to ask for it again.’

In an even more sinister way.

To begin with, they were the bad guys among the bad guys who kidnapped women and sold them as slaves.

Of course, that wasn’t why they were ‘cleaned’.

There was only one reason.

They touched {Little Bakery}, that’s all.

“—How dare they touch it. I’ll have to kill them all.”

“……!”

“I will destroy it’s three tribes.”

Amidst the red roses, the handsome and innocent-looking man muttered with an eerie smile.

The black mask, the last remnant of Delphi, who was secretly hiding behind him, groaned.

The masked eyes were expressing;

‘I think I’m screwed…?’

At that moment, the mad leader of Larva drawled out, looking straight at the mask.

“Even if you die, it’s cheap. Isn’t it?”

“……!!!”

The masked man closed his eyes tightly, whispering, “What the heck.” Then he gripped his knife and charged.

At the same time.

Kyle put down the shotgun, and his fist struck the mask.

Puck!

━━━━⊱⋆⊰━━━━

“The cookies smell amazing. No one will be able to stand this. Ah, definitely.”

This scent was making me salivate.

In {Little Bakery}, cookies were baked to a golden brown color, and the sweet and savory scent was oozing.

‘Whoah, I’m looking forward to tomorrow’s sales.’

The sales obsessive maniac laughed darkly as she recalled the myth of a sales jackpot made with cookies.

‘I’ll suck the money.’

Oh!

I widened my eyes and looked at the clock.

Ah, now that I noticed, it’s too late?

As expected, as I was preparing for the opening tomorrow by myself, it was too late.

It was already dark outside the window.

“Hmm. I probably won’t be able to go see Mr. Kine.”

It was a little sad though.

Come to think of it, I was busy, so I left the bouquet as it was.

It would wither soon.

‘I need to arrange the flowers.’

It was when I picked up the bouquet.

—Tuk.

A small box fell at my feet.

“Huh?”

It was a box that was inserted with a business card inside the bouquet, but it seemed that the flowers were so abundant that I couldn’t see it.

I opened the small mint-colored box.

“……!”

My eyes widened wildly.

Inside contained a small shiny bracelet. It was made of topaz.

My favorite gem, topaz.

Really, it’s topaz?

“…….”

I thought while picking up the bracelet with a slightly vague expression.

‘Isn’t that suspicious?’

Once or twice was a coincidence, but the third was unlikely to be a coincidence.

This innocently handsome man with Indian dimples was too sensitive to my taste. It was like he did a background check.

‘You, who the hell are you?’

I was too curious to stand still.

It was a plan modification.

‘I have to check it out right now.’

Eventually, I left the house with a basket of cookies.

━━━━⊱⋆⊰━━━━

Diver Street.

Day and night, a place ruled by outlaws.

It was the only street on the peaceful Bayonaire Island that was called ‘Shady’.

By the way;

Contrary to my expectations, it was surprisingly clean.

‘It’s different than I imagined.’

I bumped into some monstrous-looking man, but most of them were picking up trash. Then, when our eyes met, they smiled warmly (this was a little burdensome).

“…Is this the place?”

I soon arrived at the building. There was a black sheep sign.

The initials ‘L’ were engraved on the door.

Hmmm, L? What’s the abbreviation for?

Tok tok—

“Mr. Kine, I’m here.”

I called a little louder, knocked on the door, and hugged the cookie basket tightly in my arms.

This was a gift. For Mr. Kine.

I did hear that he had prepared a ‘gift’ for me, so I couldn’t come empty-handed.

Once again, tok tok—

I knocked on the door.

“Mr. Kine! This is Annette!”

However, there was no answer from the inside, and it was quiet like before.

I tilted my head and opened the door slightly.

Crrrr—-

The door opened slightly with the creaking of hinges.

“Mr. Kine…?”

I called him, carefully opened the door, and went inside.

And that moment.

“……!!!”

I encountered an unbelievable sight.

It was a sight of the pure stag-like man striking a masked man with his fists clad in leather gloves.

Wham, wham!

Every time he punched, blood spattered brightly in all directions, and the ‘red roses’ were engulfed in the drops of blood, making it even more red.

‘I wonder if they were originally white roses, but because of that it became red?’

In the first place, why did you put roses in the place where you beat others at?

―To make it more romantic?!

“…Owner.”

“Hahaha. Hello?”

I felt a cold sweat run down my back as I laughed awkwardly.

It was then. Mr. Kine, who turned the masked man into blood cake, discovered me belatedly.

Thud.

When he let go of his collar, the man fell to the floor like a piece of meat.

The brunette looked like a bloodthirsty carnivorous stag.

“What about him?”

“—It’s my friend. I was joking.”

‘Do you empty out your friend?’

Mr. Kine smiled at me. It was obvious that he was smiling without knowing there was blood on the half of his bright and handsome face.

Just then. A thought flashed through my head like lightning.

‘Is the initial ‘L’ the ‘L’ of Larva?!’

Undoubtedly so.

Headquarters with an “L” sign on the street of outlaws.

‘And actually, he has brown hair and green eyes like the leader of Larva, right?’

“…….”

I was frightened and staggered back.

He sharply caught my backward step. Green eyes, thick like a swamp, followed me tenaciously.

Then he took off his gloves and held out his hand.

And he whispered.

―With a very sweet and gentle voice.

“Come here.”

“…….”

It somehow felt like the tenderness of a hunter trying to lure out a rabbit.

The eyes containing dark green pupils were curved.

“I have a gift you will love.”

“…A gift?”

‘Yes, it could be a misunderstanding.’

First of all, let’s calm down and think about what Mr. Kine has been like so far.

He was nice and kind.

‘Even now, looking at the gifts he prepared, he’s a warm-hearted man, isn’t he?’

Could it be that the rumors of the leader of Larva had been exaggerated?

At least, he wouldn’t be a ‘crazy guy’.

Tuk—

Then, as he pulled a string, the turquoise silk on one wall slipped and revealed a ‘prison’ full of scary slave men (all of them gagged with the word ‘Delphi’ inscribed on them).

“It is a gift. You wanted to have a smart pet.”

A beautiful, blood-soaked face smiled broadly.

‘Looks like he’s crazy.’

Ame: We all love crazy scratch that, WE ALL LOVE HANDSOME+CRAZY (not just regular crazy). And it looks like whatever that’s in the summary and chapter 1 are cherry-picked. 

Tassie: Unhinged soft MLs do things to me. Unhinged MLs in general do things to me. Just be mentally unstable and i’ll simp pls my standards are so low XD
