Became the Academy Romantic Phantom Thief chapter 53

in the arms of the goddess

At some point, the purple world disappeared and he returned to the Eiffel Tower in the middle of the night.

“Did you see the past you wanted?”

“yes.”

The witch stroked the crystal ball and smiled.

“That’s fortunate. You have to wait for a long time once you use the beads.”

I remember it because it was from the original.

The cooldown applied individually to each user is a whopping 5 years. In other words, it means that I will not be able to seek the help of the marble for the next 5 years after using the marble to check the past.

It may be a fleeting moment for a witch who lives for a long time, but it was too long for an ordinary human being. Without such a penalty, it is understandable because it is a very deceptive ability.

“thank you. Thanks to you, I figured out what to do.”

“I wish you all the best.”

However, the witch of prophecy herself is not bound by the penalty of this crystal ball. That is, beings who can observe both the past and the future as they wish. To be precise, he can see everything except his own future.

“Witch. What is my future?”

At my question, the witch gave me a mysterious smile.

“Are you curious? What is your future?”

[Don’t be deceived by that kind of talk. It is of no use.]

God’s sudden advice. Even in a calm tone, it felt as if he wanted me to never listen.

“If I answer a question, will you let me know?”

[Cro.]

“The future doesn’t change simply by knowing it.”

“It’s a destined destiny.”

“But on the other hand, there is no need to be sure that everything is going according to providence.”

I suddenly wondered. Will my future come out of that crystal ball?

Nara is an irregular that did not belong to this world originally. Cro Morris, who appeared in the original work, was just a passing extra that had no significance.

So, what about Phantom Thief Raven?

My act of stealing Rafano’s necklace became a butterfly effect, affecting Rachel as well.

All the details of the process could be seen through the crystal ball, but it was only the past and it was different from the future.

Possibility of the future that has not yet unfolded.

That’s the future. Will my future be written all over that crystal ball?

The witch got up from her chair for the first time and approached me softly.

A blond bun gliding along with her gait.

The witch of prophecy with her face sticking out and putting her mouth to her ear whispered to me with a tickling voice.

“Your end will be more terrible than anything else.”

“·················ogue.”

“It was fun today. Goodbye then.”

So the overnight trip to Paris came to an end.

***

On the way back by train.

The sky outside the window was gradually turning into scarlet after passing through a mysterious purple color.

It was the light of dawn that rose as the sunrise began.

“·················ogue.”

I leaned my chin for a moment and stared blankly at the momentary scene.

If you change your clothes as soon as you arrive in London and leave immediately, you will be barely late to avoid being late.

If you want to maintain your condition, it is right to close your eyes even for a moment.

But I couldn’t sleep because I had so many thoughts in my head.

I think Rachel’s work can be solved enough.

Of course, it is difficult to say that there are no problems at all. In particular, there were details that were not fully confirmed with the crystal ball.

For example, that’s why Rachel hid the truth without an apology from me, who was almost dead.

Not being able to confirm exactly what her older sister is now, etc.

For some reason, I was expecting something like that.

From the moment I first saw Veronica, I guessed it.

Her personality magic is none other than hypnosis.

In a way, it was the most difficult ability among Drakhan.

However, for hypnosis to work completely, the mental power is very unstable or it takes a long time.

So for now, no matter how severe it may be, it will only be a strong suggestion.

It starts with a simple reason to make you money, and gradually builds up your hypnosis as if you were drowning in a muddy swamp.

Before that, we must dispel Rachel’s suggestion as soon as possible.

The biggest stumbling block is the obstruction of Drakhan. There is no way they will simply give up when their test subjects say they quit.

I also have a plan in my head.

You can’t be sure that it will be eaten unconditionally, but at some point you will have no choice but to give up Drakhan.

That’s it.

Right now, in this moving train, thinking more about something didn’t change anything.

Still, I couldn’t close my eyes and kept looking out the window.

In fact, what is bothering me right now is the story of my future I heard from the witch earlier than Rachel’s problem.

‘Your end will be more terrible than anything else.’

terrible ending

What the hell did she see in me?

I would be lying if I said I wasn’t afraid.

Although it was a phantom thief who started out of romance, he understood from the beginning that even his life could be in danger because of this.

Maybe he understood it only in his head and thought it lightly in his heart.

“Did God know?”

[Originally, God does not tell humans the future. Because the established providence is violated.]

“…Then is it okay to turn innocent students into phantoms?”

[You are my only devotee and the most precious child. So I don’t want to hurt you.]

If I knew the details of the future, would I get hurt?

I’ve already heard that a terrible end awaits, but what will change if you get hurt?

I know. To the extent that it is not a problem that can be solved by complaining to the Goddess.

After quietly fiddling with the ring for a while, I felt a warm feeling all around my body.

Even though he couldn’t see it, he could immediately recognize whose warmth it belonged to.

[Don’t worry. Even if you face a terrible end, as the witch said. I will be by your side until the end.]

“···haha. Was that supposed to be comforting?”

That’s like telling the witch that the prophecy was true.

Still, I felt much relieved.

I feel like I just let go of regret and put away complicated thoughts.

As the witch said, knowing the future doesn’t change anything anyway. There is no need to be terrified of having already concluded that this is true.

Life is too tight for me to even care about right now.

I closed my eyes softly to the bright sunlight shining through the window.

I leaned in the goddess’s warm arms and asked for a sweet sleep.

barely safe.

Even if I was late and took a penalty point, the effect on my grades was quite large, so I was very fortunate.

Of course, there’s nothing special about getting good grades.

Rachel grinned as she saw me rushing into the class.

“What? Why are you so late? What did you do last night without sleeping?”

“…you’re a girl who says things like that?”

“under. What did I say? What are you imagining? This chubby one.”

Ah-oh. As soon as he meets him, he scratches the inside of a person.

I tried to help, but you just hit me?

not. Still, it’s my responsibility, but I can’t say I don’t know.

I had a rough idea of how I would help Rachel. I thought about doing it openly with just showing up, but I thought that if I did it for nothing, it would hurt his self-esteem or make the relationship awkward at all.

So, again, I have no choice but to use the name of Arsene Lupin.

Since we are running a charitable foundation, we have a good cause.

But before that, there is something to check first.

We need to find out if Rachel is really under Veronica’s suggestion, or if she’s completely sane.

At first glance, she looks exactly like the usual Rachel. Having read the original, I already knew the only distinction.

“Rachel.”

“ok?”

“Can I buy you something delicious after class?”

“Five···. What are you doing? What are you going to buy me?”

“How about chicken?”

Rachel, who was delighted with the idea of buying something delicious, frowned as soon as she heard it was chicken.

“Oh, okay.”

“why. Do you hate chickens?”

“Then what will you do?”

Five. There is definitely a response.

Veronica’s Hypnosis is very powerful, but it has only one weakness.

Hearing the crowing of a rooster will be relieved.

Therefore, the hypnotized subject instinctively hates and avoids chickens.

Of course, it’s too early to be certain just because you hate chicken. The surest way is to bring the rooster right in front of you and make it cry, but it would be difficult in the present situation.

After today’s class is over, I have no choice but to try it for sure.

“okay. Then I will buy you another one.”

“…Is it true? If you go to eat chicken after this, you are really behind.”

“I’m not you and I don’t like you, so why do I have to force it?”

Rachel poked me in the side and spoke.

“Ugh. Now, I’m even arguing with the stinky topic. Was it big?”

“Ugh. …don’t tell the other kids anyway.”

“ok? why?”

“Why? Because I only want to buy you.”

How do you hear the rooster crowing in the presence of all the other kids?

But Rachel seemed to have misunderstood my words, so suddenly she widened the distance and stared at me. For some reason, his face was slightly heated.

“you···.”

“no.”

Without realizing it, I reflexively denied it.

But it’s not really like that. isn’t it?
