Became the Academy Romantic Phantom Thief - Became the Academy Romantic Phantom Thief chapter 265

265 – Sisters

“···Six people?”

The number of enemies Gina identified was different from what I expected.

Drakan has five members.

Then who is the other one?

After thinking about it for a while, I soon remembered what Catherine said just before the attack.

The person who would have passed on to them the existence of the opponent’s target, Yongburimi, or Gina.

An executive member of the Resistance and one who is currently running away from pursuit.

Juliet. It all makes sense if she came to this academy with Drakan.

Why did she join hands with a group of crazy people who only know about dragons?

There was no way I would have taken the risk of interrupting their ritual and handing over information to them without any reason.

After inducing Drakan to attack the Academy, he intends to take advantage of the chaos to achieve his true goal.

I was able to quickly realize what the true purpose was without having to think deeply.

“Sharon.”

She is somewhere in this vast academy and is in danger.

“We finally met again.”

“······.”

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

Two blonde girls who resemble each other like twins, as if looking at themselves through a mirror.

“Hello. My little brother.”

Juliet said hello to Sharon.

However, Sharon, who was standing on the other side, did not react and kept an expressionless expression.

No, there was clear hostility in that hard expression.

As if she didn’t really care, Juliet shrugged her shoulders and slowly, step by step, approached her partner with the same face.

“Stop.”

Until I heard Sharon’s cold warning.

“Calm down. “I have no intention of harming you either.”

“Don’t you think the kidnapper is quite shameless for what he says?”

Juliet sighed softly at the cold sarcasm.

“I’m sorry about what happened in Paris. But the situation was urgent at the time, so I had no choice.”

“It still doesn’t seem like a situation where we can have a leisurely conversation.”

Juliet’s patience began to wear off little by little due to her persistence in maintaining her non-cooperative attitude until the end.

“That is correct. So, if you won’t cooperate, we have no choice but to drag you along again like last time.”

“···What on earth do you want from me?”

Juliet, who finally thought that she could communicate to some extent, looked around her for a moment.

Drakan is probably still in the process of securing her Dragonbu, Rimi. Of course, the Academy is also fighting fiercely against the attackers.

I’ll have to take my time to talk about the details later, but for now, I thought it would be okay to give the other person at least the minimum amount of information they can understand.

“It’s just like I said last time. “Come with me to see her father.”

Sharon frowned at the content of her offer as she held out her hand.

“…Are you saying you know where your father is?”

“If you say you’ll come with me, I’ll tell you everything.”

“I can’t believe it. “Give me a reason why I should trust you.”

Juliet answered immediately without any hesitation.

“Can’t we tell just by looking at each other’s faces? No matter how hard we try to deny it, we are the ones who can understand each other better than anyone else. “They are twins born together at the same time on the same day.”

“···That can’t be a reason.”

There was a dark shadow on Sharon’s expression as she spewed out negative words. The momentary hesitation just before giving her answer revealed that she was slightly agitated.

“Little brother. Do you know why we were created? “Why did your father suddenly leave your side?”

“······.”

“Of course, I don’t know everything. But I know more than you do now. Above all, even how to meet my father again.”

As Juliet’s persuasion continued, Sharon’s wariness gradually faded. What takes her place is confusion, doubt, and a wish that she cannot hide.

She is Sharon, who became a detective to find the whereabouts of her father, who has disappeared.

The clue she had been looking for appeared right before her eyes, and she was holding out her hand to herself.

Sharon was silent for a moment and Juliet looked down at her outstretched hand.

Then, after a while, her first words were not an affirmation of her proposal.

It was a sincere question that went a step beyond the previous topic.

“Why did you attack the academy?”

Juliet, who was smiling while holding out her hand, hesitated slightly at her unexpected question.

“Now that is…”

“It’s important. This is my precious space. I can’t understand putting other people at risk of death just to meet me. Why did you meet me so aggressively in the first place? “If your goal was really to meet your father, you could have come quietly and persuaded him.”

Juliet’s mood suddenly calmed down as Sharon sharply pointed out the gap.

“If you reject my offer, I will have no choice but to force you. But I’m being chased, and there’s always an obstacle next to you. “There was no choice but to open a dialogue like this.”

“By disruptor, you mean Crow. I heard it all. Also, you worked as a secretary for that kid. “Are you afraid of Cro knowing your identity?”

Juliet soon took back her outstretched hand and covered her face with it, letting out a sigh.

“···Okay. I won’t deny it. Our director is very versatile. How dare you shake the hearts of our twins, both her and her sister, like this. At first, I simply hired him to disguise his identity, but at some point, he became the biggest obstacle to my plans. “He was so quick-witted that he quickly realized that I was a member of the Resistance.”

Sharon paused for a moment and asked in a cool voice.

“So you were trying to get rid of it? “At the count’s mansion then and at the academy now?”

“The phantom thief is my father’s greatest enemy.”

“···You are my most precious friend.”

For a moment, the gazes of the two sisters met in the air.

“Then choose. Father and Cro. “Which of the two is more important?”

At the moment of choice, two conflicting scenes quickly passed through the girl’s mind.

Never-forgettable memories made with my father during my childhood.

And then I entered the academy and met a boy, and the feelings that have continued to this day.

After a moment passed, Sharon opened her closed eyes and answered.

“At least I trust Cro more than you.”

I will choose the friend I have been with for a long time rather than the person right in front of me who claims to be my older sister.

The father just needs to find it on his own without Juliet’s help. I can’t trust that woman who attacked the academy and put Crow in danger.

Juliet muttered quietly as she looked at the girl’s firm gaze and realized that there was no way she would change her choice.

“I’m sorry.”

I have to take you by force.

She swallowed her words and immediately took out her gun from her arms.

Anyway, there was no hesitation in firing because what was in the magazine was an anesthetic bullet, not a regular bullet.

‘Stay asleep for a moment. ‘It will all be over by the time you wake up!’

Push!

A tranquilizer bullet is fired from the muzzle as soon as the trigger is pulled. The end of the bullet’s trajectory was aimed precisely at the target’s neck.

But Sharon also did not take it lightly.

She had already anticipated her opponent’s surprise attack, so as soon as she recognized Juliet’s movement to take something out of her arms, she immediately prepared for her counterattack.

A gaze that looks exactly at the bullet flying towards you.

At some point, the girl’s eyes were shining brightly green.

Sharon’s personality magic is ‘observation’. Except for the fact that there was a considerable activation time before casting her magic, its usability and performance were close to standard.

For example, if you succeed in accurately observing bullets as you do now, it is also possible to read the pattern of the attack and avoid it.

Avoid tranquilizer bullets with minimal movement by perfectly understanding the trajectory. As she moved to the side, she felt the bullet pass by her hair on her head.

“As expected, ‘observation’ is amazing.”

Where on earth…

Without a chance to finish her thought, Sharon gritted her teeth and tried to distance herself. But Juliet, who had already approached her nose, looked down at her younger sister with her sunken eyes and said,

“But it doesn’t go well with my ‘distortion.’”

Juliet’s personality magic and distortion are useless under normal circumstances.

Distortion can distort because it is not the sense of reality. What is possible is only the flow of magical power.

However, thanks to this, it is possible to completely neutralize the ‘observation’ that reads reality through her magical power.

Of course, it is also possible to double the observation performance by using distortion.

To put it simply, the two abilities were complementary powers that could not be perfected alone.

It’s as if the two girls are connected by a bond that can never be broken.

Well, in a way, it may be natural.

In the first place, this ability was given to him by his father when he created them.

“My father must have expected this moment. “When her younger brother rebels, you should subdue him.”

Sharp.

Sharon was never able to observe her distorted anesthesia shot.

A fight that can never be won. Juliet grabbed her sleeping sister and left her place.
