What do you mean my cute disciples are Yanderes?
chapter-1327

(MC POV)

I'm back at the Sect again and I even went to check on Lian Li and my little sisters in the morning, only to find three of them hunched over their desks and writing something in a notebook.

Actually… Elaria and Tsuki were the ones writing furiously, Lian Li seemed to just be glaring down at her notebook.

They looked so serious I decided not to bother them and left quietly.

I know I told them that they're free to write something… But aren't they taking this a little too seriously? This was just something I thought up to pass the time because I was bored you know? It feels more like I ordered them to do it or something…

But I guess I still have to admit that they look cute trying so hard though… It kind of makes me want to spoil them a little.

But more than that, since everyone is also trying so hard, it means that I need to work hard as well!

Alright! I've got the notebook, the writing materials and I'm all set up in my room! I shall now begin!!

…

Well… Easier said than done…

I'm glaring down at the empty pages in front of me where not a single word has been written, adopting the same pose that I saw Lian Li in back in their room.

It's not like I did not even try but I just can't find the right words to start with…

'Once upon a time'? No, no, no… I'm not writing some kind of fairy tale.

'A long time ago in a World far, far away'? Kind of true but I don't think it fits with what I was trying to do…

'Once there were four children whose names were…'. Yeah I don't even know what possessed me to even think about that one.

All of them were erased and I was left with an empty page again. How the hell am I supposed to start?

I've even tried changing the starting point of the story too but nothing good came to mind.

Like my disciples had suggested, I was planning to start the story where I first met my disciples, so definitely on the day that I met Lian Li.

I even tried 'It was love at first sight' but that would have been a complete lie so I scrapped that too.

From the beginning, I already knew that writing a story was not easy but to think I would already be stuck on the very first paragraph…

And to think that there are quite a few of the people I asked who have churned out pages of their own story already… How do they even do it?

I leaned back into my chair just as a knock echoed on my door.

"Master? It's Sophia."

"Umu… Enter."

The door slid open and the former Heaven Sect Master stepped in with a tray of tea and cakes balanced on top of it.

"Good day Master, I felt that perhaps some tea and snacks would help you with your work."

I chuckled, "It's not exactly work and if only things were that easy… But I thank you nevertheless."

She set the tea and snacks on the table beside me, "What troubles Master so?"

"To put it simply… I do not know how to start… I know where I want to start, but trying to put it into words eludes me… This would be the very first words that someone would see and if it's underwhelming, it would not be suitable at all."

Sophia started preparing the tea with a small smile, "If Master would allow me to speak freely…"

"Of course."

She placed the teapot on the table carefully, "I think Master is just trying too hard to perfect it."

I raised an eyebrow, "Trying too hard?"

"Yes. As you have said, this is meant as just a hobby and a way for Master to pass the time, is it not? Then there is no need for Master to think too much about it, and just start however you want. You are not looking for a publisher to sell this and neither are you also trying to write this to prove something either. You could just simply take it easy and write it as you want it to be."

Oh…

She's actually right. I don't even know why I'm trying so hard for this. I'm writing this for myself, not for anyone else so it doesn't matter how I start it as long as I enjoy what I'm doing.

Even if someone else were to read it, I also wouldn't need to feel mad about someone not liking what is being written here since this is just for entertainment and for me to pass the time.

The most important thing would be to maintain the story's integrity of the past events, that's literally all I needed to do.

I grinned at her, "Thank you, Sophia."

"Think nothing of it, Master. I merely said what I thought as an outsider."

"Haha, it's still helpful to me. Would you also be writing something for this?"

"Of course, Master. How could I miss out on the greatest event in the history of the entire Universe?"

I couldn't help but laugh at her little joke. You can't tell since she always looks so proper but she really does have a sense of humour.

"Ahaha! I'm looking forward to it then! Especially if you're going to write about your Demon Lord days!"

"Mmm… I suppose those times would be quite nostalgic for the two of us, would it not? I shall keep that in mind. Please call for me if you need anything more, Master."

She gave a bow before leaving my room, letting me continue my 'work' in silence.

I turned back to the book set out in front of me while taking a sip from the tea she prepared, enjoying the warmth that filled my core.

As Sophia had said, I've been trying too hard, there was no need for me to think that much.

Even though I said so much about writing a good story and everything, what really mattered at the end of the day was whether I enjoyed what I wrote here or not! That was the most basic criteria I needed to fulfil and nothing else!

With that said, there was no need to think anymore so I picked up the pen and I got ready to write my opening!

…

'I'm dead.'

Hmm~ Hmm~ Yep, the start of this story would be that! Perfect! This shall be the start of my story!

…

Ok, now what?
