Became the Academy Romantic Phantom Thief - Chapter 308



308 – Final Darkness

Even though the train arrived, Raven still could not wake up.

At first, she tried to wake him up by shaking his shoulder and talking to him, but Eldina was conflicted because he seemed to be completely asleep and showed no signs of opening his eyes.

Should we keep waiting for this to happen?

No, it’s urgent.

Besides, the association is right around the corner, so stopping here would be a waste of time.

Besides, you can’t relax when you don’t know when the masked man will wake up.

We must regain our sacred power as quickly as possible and rescue Eterna.

Eldina made her decision and forced Raven, who had fainted, to stand up and leave the train together.

Of course, now she was no different from an ordinary human woman with no strength, so it was not at all easy for her to drag a limp adult man around.

In my mind, I wanted to move on my back with great momentum, but in reality, the limit was to drag the ground and take one step at a time while holding on to my upper body.

It’s okay. Anyway, the distance from the stop where the train stops to the association is so short that if you turn over, you’ll be just a stone’s throw away.

Furthermore, the reason Raven got into such a mess was all because of herself.

Because he blocked his path for no reason, he overexerted himself and defeated his opponent.

“···I’m sorry. “I always make things difficult.”

Sometimes I regretted the past days. If he hadn’t met them in that cabin in the woods, that simple boy would have lived a comfortable life, enjoying his fate to the fullest.

But if I say something like this, Raven will get angry at me again.

Don’t talk like that. He said he has never once regretted meeting them.

You can tell without even hearing it directly. I am confident without any hesitation.

The boy has been that kind of person ever since I first met him.

A person who is foolishly kind and frustratingly pathetic.

For eons, they have lived solely for themselves, planning everything.

Nevertheless, when a girl is having a hard time, she without hesitation denies all her efforts and tries to build everything from scratch.

How foolish and foolish you are.

So how beautiful it is.

A noble and sublime will that even the gods closest to perfection cannot match.

Perhaps that spirit that transcends humanity is the source of Raven’s uncertainty.

The power to defy and destroy fate.

The more I think about him, the more I can’t help but fall in love with him.

I don’t like him, but I understand that even other women except him are obsessed with him.

I have no intention of rejecting his competitors and monopolizing him alone.

He has always been a fan of the harem, and if he were to show his desire for exclusivity now, he would be nothing more than a harem.

Instead, the royal seat is hers.

This can never be given over to anyone else.

He has been with Raven for the longest time and has accumulated the most memories.

The first person to encounter the boy in the cabin may have been his younger sister, Eterna.

But she cannot necessarily say that is the starting point.

From the beginning, the story he built up was not a unidirectional flow with a fixed beginning and end.

All events are connected like a string, and it is the owner’s mind that determines the starting and ending points.

And Raven decided to meet him for the first time.

So, the true starting point is that the first meeting at the tomb occurred before the story of the hut.

You can say this is unreasonable.

Eldina, even if I had to force her, she did not deny her desire to take the seat next to Raven.

“···What am I thinking?”

It won’t be too late to indulge yourself after all these trivial thoughts are over.

Now, it was not enough to just focus on escaping fate.

The end is really not far away. All she has to do is get her power back and everything will go smoothly from there.

“Huh…”

As I was immersed in various thoughts, I arrived at the entrance of the association.

Large and majestic golden main gate.

Happy that she had finally reached her destination, she opened the door with force.

And then, someone welcomed Eldina in the center of the gorgeous first floor hall.

“It came sooner than I thought.”

“···You.”

As she encountered an unexpected person, Eldina stood blankly for a moment and then belatedly figured out her situation.

She frowned and glared at her opponent, then slowly opened her mouth.

“No way, you…”

“Okay. “I am the leader of the Drakans who ordered you to be captured.”

The leader who was hidden behind a veil has finally revealed himself.

Even the goddess Eldina had no idea about its true identity, and did not even dare to imagine it.

In the story Raven built up, she was nothing more than an unusual ally who only appeared briefly.

No way, he is the heir to the British royal family. At the same time, no one would have thought that Princess Victoria, the apostle of the Goddess of Fate, was a shadowy figure…

Looking back, there were surprisingly many foreshadowings.

Even though she is only a princess, she has outstanding fighting skills that are worthy of being awarded.

For some reason, it was strange that she cooperated in a friendly manner with the phantom thief who had infiltrated the royal family.

I definitely expected an apostle to appear, but the same thing happened when Drakan suddenly attacked.

Above all, the etymology of Pendragon, a royal surname, means the leader of dragons.

A princess who serves the goddess of fate who appears in front of a phantom thief trying to break fate.

“…Are you saying this was planned from the beginning? “Is that why she approached Raven?”

When Eldina asked with her sharp eyes, Princess Victoria chuckled lightly and stroked her hair.

“I am no different from you. She is called the Goddess of Fate, but she cannot make the wheels turn as she wants. “My role is simply that of a repairman who fixes broken parts.”

The princess’s answer was not something a mere human could brazenly brag about.

That’s why Eldina instinctively recognized it.

She knew that the being in front of her now was a goddess of the same caliber as herself, even though she had only borrowed a human body.

Just because you are a god doesn’t mean you build close relationships with everyone.

Furthermore, the Goddess of Fate is known to be a particularly eccentric and unique being among the gods.

If you think about it, it was natural. Even the gods of the world exist under the laws of being bound by the wheel of fate. That’s why she has no choice but to avoid the woman who controls her fate, feeling uneasy about her.

It was only today that she realized for the first time that she had come down to the ground.

In the past, when she was Cro, when she met the princess, she was quite surprised to hear her confession that she was an apostle of fate, but she never imagined that she was a goddess herself.

That is how skillfully the Goddess of Fate disguised herself in human form. She intuitively understood that she had been spending time on the ground for a very long time.

If you try to guess why she even broke God’s precepts and came down to earth, you can guess the answer surprisingly quickly.

A being that twists fate. A dangerous variable that can go nowhere.

To her, a wheel repairman, there was no one more threatening than her Raven.

“···What are you planning to do with Raven?”

As Eldina glared warily at her phantom thief, hiding behind her, Victoria smiled and shook her head.

“Don’t misunderstand. “Because this body doesn’t particularly hate your lover.”

“That’s a very trustworthy answer.”

“I understand that it is hard to believe. But it’s so true.”

The princess shrugged her shoulders and complained of her injustice, as if she wanted to clear up her misunderstanding.

“Of course, it is true that that man is a variable that can change fate. But is that necessarily a bad thing?”

“···It doesn’t sound like something the goddess of fate would say.”

“No. Rather, it is something I can say because I am in this body. The Wheel of Fortune is not, in fact, an elaborate clockwork or anything like that. Rather, if we were to compare it, it’s closer to one giant living creature.”

Eldina frowned slightly at the lengthy explanation that suddenly started, but she did not interrupt the princess. Unless you know how the situation is going, there is no need to start a fight with a non-hostile opponent.

Furthermore, I’ve put it aside until now, but the presence of that woman in the association building is not an ordinary trend. The fact that Sharon and his party, who were supposed to be waiting for them, cannot be seen means that there is a problem with the operation.

Without regaining her divine power, fighting the enemy in front of her would only result in inevitable defeat.

In order to even slightly increase her chances of winning, she must wait as long as possible until Sharon returns or Raven wakes up.

Even as she was thinking about this and that in her mind, Princess Victoria continued her explanation steadfastly.

“Fate is so solid, yet so static. In other words, it is like a stagnant lake. It may look beautiful at first glance, but you never know when water that doesn’t flow will rot.”

“···So does that mean there has to be uncertainty?”

“Accurate. To put it simply, that man was prepared from the beginning for the midnight action of fate. “He only played a role in making the water clean by causing minimal variables.”

The conversation didn’t continue, but I could guess what he wanted to say.

Eterna and Eldina. When two sister goddesses come into contact with a boy, everything goes wrong.

The boy’s uncertainty, which should have originally ended only as a possibility, combined with the enormous divine power, grew into a huge mass of variables that could shake the entire wheel.

“So what is the conclusion?”

“It’s simple. Now fate has been so twisted. There is no trace of the existing story, and it has completely disappeared into the mountains. “No one can now know what kind of ending awaits beyond this.”

Contrary to the content of her words, she did not hide her laughter, as if this situation was so enjoyable that she could not bear it.

“So, as the goddess of fate, I dare to test him. “Do I really have the qualifications to open a future that no one knows about?”
