What do you mean my cute disciples are Yanderes?

chapter-640
(MC POV)
We managed to finish our ramen dinner without any incidents.
A curious thing was that Lian Li had no idea how to use chopsticks but knew how to use a knife and fork.
Did her instincts also get mixed up or something?
Like that time where I pinched Tsuki's cheek, it was something I would do in my previous life constantly but not in my new one. I might not have remembered it, but my instinct did, that's why I did it to her subconsciously.So for Lian Li to have trouble using something she had basically been using all her life, that's a little worrying.
Perhaps her entry into this world messed up her psyche a little, I need to remember to check on her mentality when we get back to the other world in case of any lasting debilitations.
Now I'm a little worried about the rest of my disciples if they do come to this world.
Hiroto and Yumi dropped us back at home before returning home themselves. Both of them lived in an apartment complex nearby that we own, which most of the members of my Family lived in. Since we've all grown up together, they've also decided to live together too.
Initially, I planned to live with them too but they had vehemently refused. All of my Family were in the consensus that I should be living better than they were or they will be ill at ease.
I suppose having your boss living in the same building as you would put you on edge most of the time. Thus, I accepted the idea of living in my current house.
Normally there would be guards around our house as well but I managed to convince them that there was no need to.I know Hiroto still arranged to have a few people around to guard it from a distance but honestly, if something or someone could get through the few thousand protection inscriptions I've layered on the house, those guards wouldn't be of much help anyway.
"So how was the food, Lian Li Onee-sama?" Tsuki asked, settling into her position as the 'well-mannered' little sister.
"It was very nice. I never had noodles like that before and they tasted really rich. Thank you for introducing it to me, Tsuki-chan."
Lian Li then turned to me and bowed, "Thank you for your guidance as well Master. I apologize that I will be imposing on you for the near future."
I guess Tsuki's mannerisms are rubbing off on her.
"You're welcome. You don't need to be so formal with me now that we are family. Don't mind Tsuki, she's just doing that because she wants to."
Tsuki pouted at me when she heard me but didn't comment.
Lian Li smiled at me, "No, I may not remember my time as Master's disciple. But for the current me, Master was the one who saved me and I am eternally grateful for that. Please continue taking care of me from now on, Master."
I patted her head, "Of course. Now why don't the two of you go and take a bath? I'll wait for you."
Tsuki gasped, "Eh? Why isn't Aniue joining us?"
I raised an eyebrow, "Did you really just suggest that I go into the bath with the two of you?"
"Are we not all family, Aniue? There is no need for us to be reserved."
"No, no. Lian Li would definitely mind it, won't you? An unmarried man and woman going into the same bath is not normal."
The golden haired girl blushed, "Umm… Somehow I… I don't mind if Master joins us… Can we?"
Really? Is this the only instinct that she kept when she crossed over to this world? Does her body only remember our intimate relationship and forgot everything else?
Tsuki was looking at me smugly but I just flicked her forehead, causing her to yelp in pain.
"I'm not doing that. You two go ahead first, I still have some things I need to do."
Tsuki rubbed her forehead with an indignant expression, "Mou… This would end our year long streak of having baths together, Aniue…"
"Why are you even counting that…" I sighed before shooing the two of them away.
The two girls went to the bath begrudgingly, both of them asking me one more time to follow them and only after I rejected them three more times did they give up.
Alright, now that they're busy with bathing, I should have about an hour or so to myself.
Putting on my shoes again, I left the house and flew into the air, extending my senses to spread out over several miles around me.
Right now I was searching if any of my disciples had also crossed over to this world.
Levitating myself, I shot up into the sky and began combing the land in search of my disciples, my senses peeled for any traces of them.
There was a loud boom as I broke the sound barrier, speeding through the air while continuing my search.
In about a minute, I had already searched the entire country and found not a single trace of my disciples apart from Lian Li.
Unperturbed, I widened my search range and sped off to circumnavigate the globe, even going as far as to search both poles too.
Even after going around the world three times, I was still unable to find any traces of them. That means they either weren't coming here, they have yet to arrive or they are trapped in a dungeon like Lian Li was.
Just to make sure, I went back to the dungeon we rescued Lian Li from to do a search but I found it looking exactly as I had left it.
The crystal room that Lian Li had been locked in was also still empty and there were no monsters left in it either.
I tried to inspect the crystal itself, examining the structure of it and what it was made of.
Hmm?
The moment I touched it, parts of the crystal started to turn black before corroding away and disintegrating into nothingness.
I tried to break some of it off in an attempt to stop the corrosion but it did not help, the corrosion simply continued to envelope the rest of the crystal as though nothing had changed.
I could do nothing but watch as the entire crystal disappeared in front of my eyes, the corrosion even going as far as to disintegrate every other crystal within the room to leave a completely empty hall behind.
Why the hell did that happen?
I waited for a few more moments to see if anything would happen but nothing did.
Without any other leads, I tried to destroy the dungeon and found that I could do it easily, wiping the entire place out of existence before I popped back into my world again.
I tried to create another dungeon and popped back in, unfortunately that also turned up empty.
Maybe I'll try to create another dungeon again tomorrow and see if there's any change in that.
I flew back to my house and went in just as I heard the door to the bath open, the sounds of two girls giggling echoing from that direction.
"Aniue~ The bath is free~" Tsuki called out.
Yeah, this can wait till tomorrow.
