What do you mean my cute disciples are Yanderes?

chapter-1220
(MC POV)
Nothing happened.
I will say this again, absolutely nothing happened last night.
At least for now.
"Nggghh… Good morning, Master…" Brendan greeted me on the other side of my bed while stretching herself.She was wearing only a simple tank top and hot pants that left nothing to the imagination and she didn't even look concerned about her tank top being skewed to one side to show quite a bit of side boob.
"Competition's tonight? Are you ready?" I asked, also unfazed.
Breandan grinned, "Of course I am, Master. I've been taught by the very best here, haven't I? Oh, is using my divinity considered cheating?"
"If you want to get technical… It is part of your skill so I wouldn't say so."
"Hmm… But that would make things too easy for me… I guess I'll simply limit myself to what I know about this World and my experience in the original World."
Seems like Brendan is already experiencing one of the problems I faced before, life gets too boring if it's too easy or monotonous. That's why she's seeking out a challenge to make things interesting for her.
I swung myself out of bed, "Well, let's go prepare some food for your guest, shall we? Actually, I'll do that, why don't you go and check on her?"She picked up a discarded cardigan from the floor and slipped into it with a grin, "Having Master prepare breakfast for her as well? She's really getting spoiled huh? Are you expecting me to give her a good morning kiss as well?"
"Hey, it's your girl, I ain't going to tell you what to do with her," I quipped back before climbing down to the kitchen.
Brendan chuckled but said nothing more as she went down to her own loft to wake Sylphy up, the girl having slept in one of Brendan's pyjamas last night.
Breakfast was already prepared by the time Brendan came down while carrying a Sylphy who was wearing nothing but her underwear in her arms.
"Oh? Did you two do each other in that short amount of time?" I asked with an amused chuckle.
"Very funny, Master…" Brendan scoffed before depositing the still groggy woman in her own seat on the dining table. "She has a habit of taking her clothes off in bed it seems. My pyjamas were already on the floor when I got there. So I'm afraid I will have to disappoint you by saying I did not do her."
"Unnggh… My head…" Sylphy groaned, a clear sign of having a hangover.
I passed her a glass of water with some hangover pills and she received them gratefully from me, sighing the moment she finished them both.
It's not a normal hangover pill, by the way. This World still has some cultivation aspects to it so that pill was something refined through alchemy to instantly cure hangovers. Really useful if you ask me.
Revived, she turned her attention back to Brendan who had chosen to sit across from her.
"Where is that mixology competition being held?"
Brendan raised an eyebrow, "Eh? You didn't know? It would be at our bar. Master's bar was chosen especially for this event."
"Oh! I didn't know that! Wouldn't this affect your daily work though?"
"It would, but it's also giving us publicity so we're expecting an increase in sales after the event. What's more, we do allow people to come and spectate the event and join the tasting afterwards as long as they pay an entry fee."
"Ohhh~ That's nice. So what kind of people would be there?"
I chuckled, "It's not exactly a really big event. It may be called a competition but it's pretty much a gathering where a number of mixologists come together to show off their skills."
"Ehhh… I thought there would be lights, cameras, judges and everything."
"Nope, not at all. It really is more of a casual event if I had to say it. There's free drinks at least and the participants are allowed to bring guests, so if Brendan doesn't mind you coming along…"
She turned to my alchemist with pleading eyes.
Brendan sighed, "Alright… But please keep it in moderation ok? I do not wish to take care of a drunk you again…"
"I promise!! Besides! I need to be sober enough to sleep with you after the event too!"
Brendan groaned in response, "I know I said that you could ask me for it… But I never said that I would accept it…"
"What's wrong with me? It's not like this would be the first time we would be sleeping together anyway, right? Don't you remember how you even sat me on the bar counter just to--"
"Alright, alright! Let's err… Let's not go there…"
Yep, that actually happened in this World. What can I say? Brendan's a real ladies girl here.
"Speaking of which, Master…" Brendan suddenly addressed me. "Are you alright with the competition?"
I thought she might be asking if I was alright with not participating in it so I just shrugged, "It's fine. This is technically made for you anyway so feel free to stand out."
That seemed to reassure her as she nodded at my words.
"Actually, it's also starting soon so you guys might want to hurry it up," I reminded them.
That prompted the two of them to wolf down their food before running off to get ready to leave. Since Sylphy did not have a change of clothes, Brendan had to loan her some of hers which made the woman ecstatic beyond measure.
I did put her clothes into the laundry so they should be ready by the time she goes back tomorrow, assuming she'll be staying another night here.
By the time we reached the bar, there were already a number of people hanging around inside, all of them presumably being the participants of the competition and their guests.
I wished Brendan good luck as he went to join the crowd while I took my place at the side as one of the audience.
When the time to start the competition came, an announcer walked up to a small stage prepared for this event and spoke into the mic.
"Good day everyone! I can see that you're all ready to get this event started! We have a mix of both old and new faces amongst us today! The venue today was kindly provided by the illustrious Master Lin who we all know as 'Master'!"
What the heck? I admit I didn't really take the time to actually check what my own reputation was in this World but what kind of nickname is that? And how did I even get it?
Oh whatever, that's not even that important anyway.
"Now without further ado! We all know what we're here for so let's begin the mixing! Make a drink worthy of Master Lin to strip! Let's begin!!!"
…
WHAT?!
