My Girlfriend Is So Beautiful, But She's an Assassin!

”An idea?... What idea?” Julian asked with a confused expression.

”How about we make a deal!” Sagara replied.

Julian hadn’t released his tackle yet.

”What deal?” Julian asked with a confused expression.

Sagara tried to squirm, but still couldn’t.

”Damn, even if he’s off guard, he can still hold me!” Sagara thought to himself with an annoyed expression.

Finally, Sagara gave in and suggested:

”How about we have a duel?” Sagara said with an awkward smile.

”A duel?” Julian asked.

”Yeah, the loser has to obey the winner’s wishes” Sagara replied.

”No, you’ll probably use a handgun” Julian said, tightening his hug.

”OW! OW! OW!,” Sagara screamed in pain.

”N-never!, I promise I won’t use a handgun!” Sagara said, patting Julian’s shoulder.

”Seriously?” Julian asked, loosening his embrace.

”Yes!” Sagara replied seriously.

”Haa... Okay,” Julian said, releasing his embrace.

They both stood up. As stood, Sagara noticed the handgun behind him, and an idea occurred to him. They took a fighting stance, Sagara standing in front of the handgun, this prevented Julian from noticing the handgun’s presence.

Meanwhile, Julian adjusted his stance, preparing himself like a fighter. Sagara smiled faintly, then raised both hands and assumed a boxing stance.

”If you cheat, you’ll regret it” Julian said, glaring at Sagara.

”Don’t worry, I won’t cheat” Sagara said casually.

The atmosphere became tense. The two of them stared at each other sharply. Sagara started counting

”1...”

”2...”

”Hmph!, Fool, do you think I’ll listen to what you say? I’ve already pulled the hammer on the handgun, hehehe” Sagara thought to himself, smiling.

”...3!” Sagara shouted.

Sagara quickly grabbed his handgun, and when he aimed it at Julian, Julian was nowhere in sight.

”W-what?!, Where did he go?!” Sagara asked with a confused expression, looking left and right.

”I told you, you’ll regret it if you cheat” Julian said in a heavy tonice, who was behind Sagara.

”Shiit!—” Sagara said, who immediately turned his body back.

But unfortunately, as Sagara turned around, Julian quickly ducked and kicked the back of Sagara leg with his right foot. Sagara’s body immediately lifted and hovered in the air for a moment, the handgun slipping from his grasp. Before landing, Julian quickly grabbed his handgun. After grabbing the handgun, Sagara immediately fell to the ground, at the same time Julian, who was on Sagara’s right, turned the pistol and pointed it at Sagara’s forehead and said.

”Checkmate, Sagara!” Julian said with a sarcastic look and tone.

Sagara, still lying on the ground, looked up and stared at the tip of the pistol now pointed at his forehead. He swallowed hard, his expression a mix of shock, annoyance, and... resignation.

”D-damn it!” Sagara gritted his teeth.

”I told you not to cheat,” said Julian with a sneer.

They both stared intently, and Sagara soon sighed.

”Haa...” Sagara sighed.

”So what do you want? Money?” Sagara asked.

”I only want one thing never tell Anindya about my declaration of love because I lost the game” Julian replied.

Sagara stared intently at Julian for a moment, then closed his eyes and said

”Rejected!” Sagara said firmly.

”Eh?! Why?!” Julian asked.

Sagara opened his eyes and said,

”Don’t you feel sorry for Lady Anindya?, She really likes you, you know!” Sagara replied with a sharp gaze.

Julian fell silent. The tip of the handgun in his hand trembled slightly. His heart felt mixed with Sagara’s words.

”I... I know,” Julian replied quietly, his head lowered, his voice sad.

”Chance!” Sagara said to himself.

Sagara immediately stepped back with both hands, then kicked the handgun out of Julian’s hand with his right foot. Julian was startled, lost his balance, and the handgun flew into the air. Sagara then quickly snatched it back. Julian fell to the ground, with the handgun in his hand Sagara pointed the handgun at Julian’s forehead and said

”Checkmate, Julian!” Sagara replied.

”Didn’t I already win?” Julian asked.

”But I never admit defeat” Sagara said with a triumphant smile.

The atmosphere was quiet for a moment, but Sagara soon spoke up.

”So, what’s the real reason you didn’t want to tell Lady Anindya about it?” Sagara asked.

Julian glanced away with an uncomfortable expression.

”I... I just don’t have the courage yet,” Julian replied quietly but clearly.

”Tch!” Sagara screeched.

Sagara immediately brought the tip of his handgun to Julian’s forehead, pressing the tip against it as he said,

”Listen!, Lady Anindya truly loves you. Don’t waste her feelings. You have to tell her as soon as possible before she gets hurt and hates you!” Sagara said quietly but threateningly.

”I know, but—” Julian said, not yet finished.

Suddenly, someone hit Sagara’s head.

”THUD!” came the sound of someone hitting Sagara’s head.

”What are you doing, idiot?!” Anindya said with an annoyed expression and tone.

It turned out to be Anindya who hit Sagara. Sagara immediately moved away from Julian. He raised his head, holding the area where Anindya had hit him.

”La-lady Anindya?!” Sagara said with a shocked expression and tone.

Julian stood up and said,

”A-anindya?” Julian said with a shocked expression and tone.

Anindya glanced at Julian, her expression immediately changing to joyful. She immediately hugged Julian. Julian was a little surprised.

”Julian~... Julian~... Julian~” Anindya said, shaking her head against Julian’s chest, in a joyful tone.

”Did you see?” Sagara said softly but clearly.

Julian just stared intently at Sagara. Anindya, who had been acting spoiled, immediately lifted her head and looked at Julian, then said.

”Julian, are you late?” Anindya asked in a soft tone.

”Al-almost” Julian replied.

”Moo!, I’ve been spamming your WhatsApp since 05:00, how come you’re almost late?!” Anindya asked with a pout.

”Ah-ahahaha, sorry, after waking up, I immediately got ready for school, so I didn’t check WhatsApp first” Julian said with an awkward laugh.

”Actually, I forgot to turn on notifications on my phone” Julian thought to himself.

Anindya pouted, then her expression immediately changed into a sweet smile.

”Never mind, the important thing is that I get to see you again~” Anindya said with a smile.

After saying that, Anindya nuzzled her face against Julian’s chest once more. When she looked at Julian’s left arm, she saw a scratch. Anindya immediately stopped, looked at the wound, and said,

”What’s this wound, Julian?” Anindya asked with a surprised expression and tone.

”Ah, it’s okay, I just got hit by a splinter” Julian replied with an awkward smile and covered the wound with his right hand.

”Actually, I was grazed by Sagara’s bullet” Julian thought to himself with a flat expression.

Anindya angrily pushed Julian’s right hand away and carefully touched the wound on his arm, her face looking worried.

”A wound this bad, how could it have been caused by a splinter?” Anindya muttered, her eyes starting to well up.

Seeing Anindya’s expression, which was on the verge of tears, Julian felt uneasy. He gently stroked her head to calm her down.

”It’s really okay, Anindya. It’s just a small wound” Julian said with a weak smile.

Anindya wiped away her tears, grabbed Julian’s right hand, and said,

”You can’t take this lightly! We have to go to the school infirmary immediately!” Anindya said firmly.

”Eh, no need, Anindya. I’m really fine!” Julian said, trying to refuse.
