Nothing in the world goes as planned.Of course, on a bigger scale, everything appears to be going as planned.However, it is not possible to carry out all of the plans as intended.There are numerous variables.Sometimes it's just terrible luck, other times it's incorrect assumptions, and the plan goes astray.These variables can be dealt with on the go.Results, however, may differ based on this ad hoc.“Noah Blackstorm”Julie murmured.The meeting with this person came as a complete surprise to Julie, who originally thought that he might be like others—a little cunning but ultimately amenable to her approach and plan.However, reality often deviated significantly from expectations.Furthermore, Noah was very different from how she had imagined him.But, it doesn't really matter because Julie had something in mind for him at their next meeting—she'll gradually demonstrate the disparity in their positions before luring him into her faction, ultimately turning him into a pawn for her.
Getting the confirmation from Mia about my proposal, I didn't keep her there for very long, and after a short chat, I headed to the dorms, where Sylvia was waiting for me, so we could return home.It's been a week since I last saw my aunt Alice. Even though Sylvia usually video calls her whenever she misses her, but we weren't able to talk to her much because we were so busy with our training.And similarly its been a whole week, since I last saw my mother, too.Days would pass by too quickly when I used to go on subjugation missions as a porter, and even though I would be worried about her and used to miss her even then, but this Academy's week felt more lonely for some reason without her, and I was missing her too much."I miss you Maa...."A small breeze gently touched my face and caused my hair to wave in the air, making me suddenly emotional and my eyes a little nummy.I really wanted to hear my mother's voice once again.But I soon cleared my thoughts, and controlled my emotions
Sylvia raised her head and curiously looked at me in response to the unexpected mention."God?""Yes, just like in any religion, there is a God.""Hmmm..."Was my inquiry really so difficult, I wondered as she appeared to be really contemplating something.Suddenly, Sylvia's demeanour became happier.She said cheerfully, "Actually, I do believe in God, and my God is you."She pointed at me.My brows twitched, and I was on the verge of face-palming myself, but I restrained my hands.For some reason, I truly believe that Sylvia was becoming more daring about expressing her feelings.It's not that I dislike it, but for the moment, it was necessary to take things a little more seriously."*Cough* Sylvia be serious.""But I'm being serious."I was confused by Sylvia's change in attitude as her smile disappeared, and she didn't wait for me to ask questions before continuing."A wife's husband is like her God. A girl's life after marriage is one of selfless service and intense devotion to h
Sylvia and Noah enjoyed their weekend with Alice. It was another wild night between Noah and Sylvia, which woke up Alice in the middle of the night causing her to doubt her ears and blush in shame, after hearing her daughter making such lewd noises and hearing what kind of play she was having because Noah forgot to put up the silence barrier around him. And with that, finally came Sunday.Noah was glad to finally see his mother after a week, though he did saw her yesterday but because it was late, he didn't got to spend much time with her.So, he talked to his mother for hours while simply sitting next to her, sharing his experiences at the Academy, including how he made new friends and had fun.He was like a child longing for his mother's love, and watching him like that from outside the room Sylvia wanted to hug him hard but she controlled herself and let him have his time with her.Though Noah did feel at ease spending time with his mother, the thought of his mother being unable
Girls take way too long to get ready, regardless of the situation or setting, while we males, need just five minutes to get ready, like any other normal person should.And I am sure that many men would relate to my current predicament."How much time would you need to get dressed, Sylvia?""Just 10 minutes, not much." From the kitchen, Sylvia shouted."But you haven't even showered.""I mean, um, 30 minutes,"My eyebrows twiched at that shameless lie, since when did this girl got so shameless.Despite her assurances that she will be ready in 30 minutes, I knew it would take at least an hour and a half for her to get ready.taking a bath, deciding on the dress, donning it, doing makeup, and everything else.Who could claim that this girl once used to dress up like a boy, had boy-cut hair, and didn't wear a drop of makeup on her face.Time has indeed changed."Oh dear lord, where is my innocent Sylvia.""Did you say anything?"Sylvia walked out of the kitchen while rubbing her wet hands
After talking with Rudger, and taking some things from him that I specially ordered for today as an extra precaution, It didn't take me long to get back to the Academy, but contrary to what I had anticipated, Sylvia was still applying makeup when I got to my room.She was still not ready even after I made a trip back and forth, and took almost two hours in total, to Rudger's residence."Sylvia, get ready as soon as possible; if not, I'll leave you behind.""What..? No, you can't, I worked so hard on getting ready."Sylvia stopped applying lipstick to her lips, and hurriedly responded with her hands still holding the lipstick, but I chose to ignore her and immediately went to the bathroom to wash my face, and get ready.Fortunately, Sylvia had finished everything by the time I was ready. She may have sped up her work after observing my serious demeanour.She looked breathtakingly beautiful, I thought that the time she invested was completely worthwhile.Maybe I was a bit too harsh on he
"Hey, what is it, tell me?"Sylvia knew I was quite susceptible to her ploys, so she shook my hand and talked in her adorable puppy voice as she often did when she wanted something.In contrast to her expectations, the situation this time wasn't serious, and I only wanted to tease her a little, so I just shook my index finger from left to right in front of her."Nah-ah""Gimme that catalogue."Sylvia pounced on me and attempted to take the book out of my hand, but I quickly climbed to my feet because I was aware of her strategies, and Sylvia fell onto a vacant sofa."HAHAHAHAHA, Bleh."I proceeded to tease her while sticking out my tongue.It's truly a lot of fun."Y-you, Noah! You said it wasn't in the catalogue, so why are you hiding it?""Because you're attempting to take it, and are you absolutely certain you want to know what the product is?"While openly grinning, I challenged Sylvia, obviously conveying the message, 'If Sylvia is really brave enough to see what I was speaking a
"Yes... but don't you like it ?"Noah took off his mask and questioned with a "innocent" manner.Sylvia also took off her mask, and after putting her arms around Noah's neck and giving him a few shakes, she questioned as if she had been treated unfairly."Even if that's the case, why do you spend so much money on this.""But atleast you agree that you like it, right?"However, Noah didn't seem to mind what she was doing. He quietly extended his hand, attempting to lift Sylvia off the sofa and place her on his lap.After which Sylvia sat on his lap, facing him, and let him do as he wished.However, as he looked at her, she had an unhappy smile on her face and she groaned in frustration."Ugh...""All right, I give up, but it's not at all expensive; it's cheap.""that's cheap?"Sylvia looked at Noah with a slightly tired expression."Considering the effects of this potion, it is on the cheap side.""Do you know how many barley breads we can purchase for 120,000 primos? If this thing is
"Why did you do it?"A question like a slap on the face, making her beware of the reality and the consequences of things she did in the future.Lora understood what Noah was implying here and what he wanted to ask her.However, looking at his indifferent gaze that was ready to rip her apart, and that wild, uncontrollable anger in his voice, hidden behind his calm face, she felt her heart beating loudly with fear.Her heart was beating so loudly that she could hear it beating outside her body.Still, she wasn't sure who Noah was, and she wasn't going to be sure until she got a good explanation, so she gritted her teeth and pretended not to know."What? I don't understand what you're talking about.""Why did you do it? Why did you betray me?"However, what she got in return was the same answer, this time much clearer in context, but in a more chilling voice, giving her palpitations all of a sudden.She understood after hearing those sharp, sword-like words piercing her heart and questio
Evening had arrived, but the sun was still a good distance away from the horizon, where it would set.The sun's bright light, mixed with a little orange-red hue, fell upon the green trees of the wilderness and cast a long black shadow of those trees on the ground.Noah sat on a branch of one of these trees, dressed in cameo military pants and a black T-shirt, waiting for Lora.After getting the confirmation from Rudger that Lora agreed to meet him here, he quickly got ready, left the dormitory, and secretly waited for Lora outside the academy's gates. When he saw Laura taking a taxi alone, he also left in another taxi that he had already booked on the way there.And the reason he came here in the wilderness earlier than her was because he tipped the driver to follow Lora's car, and only when they both were some distance away from the east boundary gate did he order the driver to drive at full speed, overtaking Lora's car and reaching here ahead of her.This was all done by him to conf
Noah couldn't help but let out a curse, though in a lower voice this time so as not to wake up Sylvia.He was rendered speechless by the mere thought of this bloody plot, and for a split second he once again felt as if someone was deliberately plotting against him; this feeling has only grown stronger since gaining Regressor's memory.Noah knew he was being paranoid, but the feeling of being plotted lingered in the back of his mind, even after denying it many times.However, he knew for a fact that the plotting wasn't harmful but was actually in his favour, which made Noah all the more suspicious about the cause and effect of these things.Being the type of person Noah is, once something gets in his mind, it's difficult for him to let it out.So, with the thought of someone plotting against him in his mind, he started thinking deeply about these things.* * * * * * * * * * * * *Noah POV: For example, if my assumptions were right, then it all started when I got regressor's everything
As soon as the light particles hit Noah, his eyes rolled backward for a split second, followed by the system's resistance to the light particles, but because it was just an automatic defence mechanism with only a few seconds to deal with the situation and the system itself was not powerful enough, its interference had no effect on the particles, which were absorbed into Noah's soul without wasting any seconds.The sudden situation startled Noah, who had no time to react and could only passively accept what was coming towards him.Even though Noah was shocked by the sudden influx of light particles, he could not do anything to resist their power, and he simply allowed himself to be overcome.[Warning!]Since the system couldn't do anything else, it kept showing red warning messages even though it couldn't do anything else.which, in addition to the splitting headache brought on by the light particles, almost made Noah unconscious due to pain.Despite all the warnings and pain, Noah was
Sitting in despair all alone on her chair, Lora felt the pain of losing her beloved again, which at this time was hundreds of times more sharp and painful than what she felt from the experience of her future self. She thought of the happy times spent with her loved one, now a distant memory."Why! Why is this happening to me again? Why did he have to die?"She roared alone, her painful cry echoing throughout the soundproof room.With tears streaming down her face, she could not understand why life was so cruel.Lora felt that there was nothing more left for her to do in this world."Where are you, Alvin? Where are you? Are you really dead? I don't believe it! I don't believe that guy. Please let me know where you are! Please come back to me."Like a madwoman, she cried her heart out, denying that her lover was dead and denying what Noah told her. Desperate and heartbroken, she kept calling out to him, pleading with him to come back to her.Sadly, the reality was in front of her, and n
In a well furnished modern room with minimalistic decoration and furniture, a girl was sitting on a chair, blankly staring out of the floor-to-ceiling window in a daze. She seemed to be lost in her thoughts, perhaps pondering some deep issue that had been troubling her.No one knows what was going on inside her head.But this sadness inside her consciousness was drowning her whole body, making her suffocate every second. She was trying to be calm and peaceful, but deep down inside her there was an abyss of despair, loneliness, and emptiness that had been gnawing away at her.Her heart was heavy and her soul was hurting, and there was nothing that could be done to help her.You guessed it right.She was Lora, who came back to her dorm a few minutes later after Noah left.Lying on the chair as if there was no strength left in her body, she didn't know how much she had cursed this fate, and no matter how much she tried to stop her tears, they just wouldn't stop.In this moment of immense
'I told you about his death and other things, and you only cried and went mad, but as soon as I told you the location of his death, you coughed up blood and fell unconscious?'What kind of bloody play was this? Noah had no idea. Lora's strange response baffled Noah, who was unable to make sense of it.And for the time being, it wasn't the right time to think deeply about it, because no matter what grudges Noah had with Lora, at the end of the day, she was sitting with him here in the cafe, and as a good student, it was his responsibility to help her.That's why, as soon as Lora's body felt unconscious, Noah rushed up to her and helped her sit on the chair as he splashed some water from the water jug on another table.When the waitress saw that Lora was in trouble, she also ran over to help them."What happened here?"Lora slowly opened her eyes as the waitress asked, and Noah described the situation to the waitress, who finally felt relieved and then advised Lora to go to the hospital
This time she couldn't hold on anymore, and without a care about face, she suddenly lashed out at him."Don't you dare lie to me, Noah Blackstorm, I will fight you to death here."Tears streamed down her face as she spoke, her voice shakingHer eyes got blooshot as she threatened him, but her heart was pounding rapidly because of the sudden shocking news.However, she couldn't believe it, and she doesn't want to believe it. Nevertheless, the truth remained the same. Her heart sank as she realized that what he said was true, and she felt the full weight of it all."It's what you heard; he's dead; otherwise, why do you think I'll be looking after his mother?"Noah's words were like a bolt of thunder that fell on Lora's head, shaking her whole world. She felt a wave of sadness wash over her as the reality of the situation sunk in.Her legs got tired, and she slumped down on her seat in grief and disbelief."No, no, it can't be; it can't be; it's impossible! How can he die? It's impossib

He couldn't believe his eyes"How?"He couldn't help but ask himself over and over, but no matter how hard he tried to think, he wasn't able to find an appropriate answer for the information that was in front of him.However, unaware of Noah's inner turmoil, Lora was startled by his sudden aggressive behaviour, as she thought that he was really mad at her for telling lies, and she involuntarily shrieked back in fear from his suffocating aura that was directed towards her, ready to rip her apart on a moment's notice.Then, as if remembering something,
