Became the Academy Romantic Phantom Thief - Became the Academy Romantic Phantom Thief chapter 264

264 – Each person’s fight

From Noble mtl dot com

Layerd adjusted his sword and glared at the opponent in front of him.

A huge man whose entire body looks like it is made of steel. His eyes, smiling excitedly, were filled with the madness of battle that could not be hidden.

It seemed clear that this guy was one of the criminals who attacked the academy.

The woman he was fighting with seemed to be his executioner, judging by her pure white uniform.

Laird knew very well how strong the Executioner was, as he had been involved in it against his will.

If such an enforcer struggles and is put on the defensive, how strong is the enemy?

Just by looking at him, it was not difficult to guess that the other person was more dangerous than any other person he had ever met.

“···Step back. Academy students are not enemies you can deal with.”

Catherine also had no intention of falling down irresponsibly and leaving all her burdens to a boy who was just her student.

“How long are you going to keep talking? Attack them both at once!!”

Dietrich roars and stretches out his fist as if he can’t bear it any longer.

Laird, who was staring at the attack coming at an incredible speed that did not suit his huge body, drew his sword and said.

“It’s okay. “I’ve already collaborated with them once.”

“···Yes?”

Chiiing!

Dietrich’s fist and Layard’s sword collided, emitting a sharp crushing sound.

Of course, because the power gap was significant, the boy who was pushed out of the power contest soon had to click his tongue and retrieve his sword.

Even if it wasn’t perfect, I was able to block that monster’s blow from the front…

Furthermore, even though he is a student at a magic academy, he has a unique fighting style that uses a sword.

It wasn’t long before Catherine realized the boy’s identity and opened her mouth slightly.

“Swordsman…”

A boy who used a sword that was said to have reached the center and defeated a troll along with the executioner Reiner who was investigating the Cursed Forest not long ago.

That’s right. Layered is the original protagonist of this world. He maintained an equal rivalry with Granger, who was said to have the talent of the century.

Even if the world line is distorted by the actions of one Irregular, his footsteps have continued.

Catherine, who realized the boy’s identity, grabbed her stomach while straightening her stance and glaring at her opponent.

With the hope that perhaps I could defeat that monster-like opponent.

“What are other people going to do?”

How long has it been since the attack on the Academy began?

While other colleagues were fighting a fierce battle with the academy to achieve their goals, she was naturally moving independently, as if she was okay with being a woman.

The woman leisurely pacing the hallways, twisting her mysterious purple, voluminous hair with her fingers, is named Francesca.

She was one of the members of Drakan, and at the same time, she was a being who pursued beauty to the point of madness.

There is only one reason why she belongs to this heinous criminal organization.

It was simply because she wanted to see with her own eyes the beauty of the dragon, which is said to be the most perfect creature.

Of course, he did not care at all about the evil deeds committed in the process of achieving that goal, or the resulting pain and sorrow. Because such raw emotions are not very beautiful.

Thanks to her unusual tendencies, Francesca was the most dogmatic member of Drakan along with Dietrich. If Dietrich desires only battle, she pursues only beauty.

The purpose of walking down the hallway like this was also to discover new beauty within this academy.

However, the view of the Academy, which was in chaos and in confusion due to the attack, was not so beautiful.

The professors’ struggles to stop the phantoms summoned by their colleagues and prevent casualties among students also seemed desperate.

What I disliked the most was the unsightly behavior of students who couldn’t even muster the courage to fight and just ran away like cowards.

‘Ah. Should I just kill them all?’

It didn’t really matter that they were the ones who created this scene.

Capturing a sight that is not beautiful. Because that in itself was more unpleasant and contemptible to Francesca than anything else.

She began to seriously consider wiping out the entire area.

It didn’t really matter whether there were dragon beaks among them or not. If the dragon beaker is such an idiot who only shows his ugly side, then it is obvious that the dragon summoned by such an ugly person will not be beautiful either.

‘But if that happens, the leader will be disappointed…’

No matter how much Francesca did, she didn’t want to incur the leader’s hatred.

Her leader was, she acknowledged, the most beautiful being in the world.

While she was in the midst of a moment of conflict as she paused in the hallway, a female student who was running frantically from the other side passed by, lightly grazing Francesca’s shoulder.

The girl was injured after being swept away by the collapsing rubble as Dietrich ran wild.

The girl, who was running away in tears while clutching her injured arm, stopped dead in her tracks.

“Ah.”

Francesca looked down at her shoulder for a moment.

There was a light red blood stain on the area where the female student hit her.

After looking at the marks on her for a while, she brushed her bangs and let out a sigh.

Eventually, the female student who had turned around slowly turned her body with her unnatural movements.

No, she was forced to return.

Indescribable fear flashed in the girl’s eyes. Meaningless moans occasionally flowed from her small, open mouth.

As Francesca approached her girl, step by step, her fear-dominated body began to tremble and her legs lost strength. Even so, she was bound by some kind of force and couldn’t even move.

In the end, when her opponent got close enough to reach her if she just stretched out her hand, the girl gave up everything and closed her eyes tightly.

“Thank you.”

However, contrary to expectations, when I slowly opened my eyes to the gentle voice in my ear, I saw the other person smiling gently.

“Thanks to you, I made a decision.”

Before she knew what that meant, a pressure strangled her, taking her breath away.

“Stop it!!”

At that time, someone came between them and the pressure that had been strangling the girl disappeared in an instant.

Francesca frowned slightly at the sudden interruption, but when she saw the face of her interrupter, she opened her eyes slightly and smiled mysteriously.

“It was close. “If it had been just one second later, her head would have been ripped off.”

The girl who fell to the ground at those sly words was horrified and hung herself.

“Run away quickly!!”

“Are you a close friend? “Why did you take the risk of getting involved?”

Yulia, the saboteur who saved her girl, glared at her opponent and answered.

“Do people need a reason to save others?”

Francesca, who heard the answer, did not reply at all. However, he just looked down at Yulia and the smile on her lips became even clearer. There was a strange sparkle in her eyes.

“Beautiful…”

When Julia flinched at her incomprehensible muttering, Francesca spoke shyly, as if she found even that appearance lovely.

“Eyes filled with that noble spirit. “You are a beautiful person.”

“What on earth are you talking about…?”

“In my heart, I want to take you and be with you every day. If possible, I would like to dig out that eye and use it as my own jewelry. But if that happens, those beautiful eyes will soon fade. “You can’t kill the duck that lays the golden eggs.”

Francesca casually mutters eerie words that normal people can never understand.

Overwhelmed by her deep and deep madness, Julia gritted her teeth and forced herself to continue glaring at her opponent.

‘I won’t lose…! I can’t show my pathetic side like that day, only receiving help from the phantom thief…!!’

I wonder how long that trembling confrontation continued, when Francesca suddenly put her hand on her ear and immediately shook her head as if she was disappointed.

“It’s a signal to withdraw. It’s a pity, but today I say goodbye. But I’m sure we’ll meet again.”

She slowly turned around with a blush on her cheeks.

“I’m curious. “How long will those beautiful eyes of yours be able to shine?”

With those words, the other person floated in the air and flew out the window.

It was only then that Yulia, left alone in her hallway, relaxed and collapsed onto the floor.

“···We shouldn’t do this, we need to find the kids.”

If the same dangerous guys attacked the academy just now, other friends would definitely be in danger too. If you don’t go help quickly.

***

Meanwhile, Cro and his party, who defeated Siegfried and Veronica, set out to find the remaining Drakan remnants.

“What happened to Catherine?”

“I think she’s still fighting.”

Gina becomes increasingly adept at handling the dragon’s power, and is now able to some extent to search for beings with magical powers.

“What is the overall situation?”

“It’s swarming with summoned creatures, and there are six other actual enemies.”

“···Six people?”

That can’t be possible. At this point there are only five Drakans, not including her leader.

The leader is probably not active right now, so it can’t be her.

Then who on earth…?

“We finally met again.”

“······.”

At that moment, on the other side of the academy, two girls were facing each other.

Two blonde girls who looked exactly like each other like twins, as if looking at themselves through her mirror.

“Hello. My little brother.”

Juliet said hello to Sharon.
