Chapter 150.1 - EPISODE 150.1 – PHANTOM THIEF (2)

“No, f*ck. No, f*ck!”

Pink Bomb?

PINK BOMB?

“Are you kidding me?”

“Well, I mean. Like I said, we have to lure Velkian, right? In order to do that, the name of Phantom Thief Pink Bomb must be famous, right? Famous enough that Velkian will know wherever he is, okay?”

He was right.

It was quite a convincing story.

But Cordelia wasn’t a fool.

“No! In the first place, why is it Pi- mmph!”

“Shh! Adelia might wake up!”

Jude quickly covered her mouth with his hands and Cordelia struggled to talk before she swiftly cast <Message> magic.

[Hey! F*ck, do you think I’m stupid? In the first place, why did you use the name Pink Bomb in your letter to Velkian? Care to explain?]

[Didn’t you agree to using it back then? Pink Bomb?]

[I seriously thought you were joking then!]

[Hey, I didn’t lie to you.]

[Argh, f*ck. Are you trying to get me mad on purpose? You didn’t lie??My?scammer, Jude?]

[But I’m still part of?yours.]

[If you don’t explain it properly, you’ll be?someone else’s?Jude from today onwards! Do you understand?!]

T/N: Here we are with the word play again. The literal translations are actually ‘My house’s scammer,’ ‘But I’m still part of ‘our house,’ and ‘you’ll be the Jude of someone else’s house…’ It’s hard to explain in English about the ‘house’ thing because it’s something unique to Korean culture, but you can just think or replace it with the word ‘family.’

So when Cordelia calls Jude as her family’s scammer, Jude retorts by saying that at least, he’s still part of her family. But Cordelia threatens to kick him out of her family, thus becoming the Jude of ‘someone else’s family.’

[Okay, I’ll explain.]

[What, you’ll really explain it?]

Cordelia blinked her eyes and asked.

Is there a good reason for the use of a weird name like Pink Bomb?

[Yes, I can explain.]

[W-what is it?]

[Pink Bomb is a special name for Velkian. It’s the name of the main character in Velkian’s favorite novel.]

Cordelia’s eyes narrowed at Jude’s words, but she couldn’t say anything else.

Because while she had heard of this for the first time, it was something that came out of Jude’s mouth.

‘Was there something like a hidden character setting?’

Cordelia tilted her head and asked again.

[Is that why you used the name Pink Bomb?]

[Because we want it to remain strongly in Velkian’s mind and arouse his curiosity.]

[Hmmm…]

His words were quite convincing.

Phantom Thief Pink Bomb.

It was definitely a name that would leave a deep impression to anyone who had heard it. But if someone liked a novel with a main character having such a name, that person would certainly come to the royal capital out of curiosity.

[Haa, so annoying. Who the hell is that person? Who in the world names their main character Pink Bomb!]

[Calm down, calm down. I mean, Yellow Storm and Pink Bomb are the same, right?]

[It’s different! It’s really, really, completely different, okay?!]

[Yes, it’s different. Very different. Yes, yes, it’s different. It’s very different.]

When Jude said that as if he was soothing a child, Cordelia immediately tried to kick Jude’s shin but failed. Because Jude had reflexively used his golden wind.

[F*ck, you’re so annoying.]

You avoided it? You even used a skill?

[I mean, it will hurt if I get hit.]

[Evil b*stard, ugly b*stard, nasty b*stard, f*cking b*stard.]

[Umm… It’s been a while since I’ve heard you say so many curse words, so it’s kind of nice… Should I give you a reward?]

[What is this crazy b*stard saying? Hmph.]

Cordelia was so angry that tears seemed to involuntarily come out of her eyes.

Jude said as he squatted to make eye contact with Cordelia who sat down on the floor in exhaustion.

[Anyway, Cordelia, you don’t have to worry about it too much. You’ll be able to do it well.]

[Hooo, hey. Are you worried that I’ll do something wrong? I won’t. I will not. I can do it. I will be Pink Bomb.]

[Umm…well… I can’t help it if you dislike it that much.]

[Eh? Really? You’ll really do it?]

[Well… the clothes may not fit, but I can fix it.]

[Wait, what are you talking about? The clothes don’t fit? You’re going to wear this?]

[I should wear it. Even if the clothes look like that, I should still look like the first Rogue Master, right?]

At Jude’s words, Cordelia closed her eyes for a moment and imagined it.

She imagined Jude wearing tight-fitting black leather clothes, a pink miniskirt, rabbit ears, and tail.

[Fu-f*ck… I’ll just do it. I’ll do it.]

She couldn’t bear to see something like that.

After all, he was her fiancé.

No, apart from being her fiancé, she unconsciously felt disgusted at the thought of seeing Jude going around like that. It was a bit embarrassing.

It was when Cordelia grumbled while she was deep in thought.

Jude smiled and said as if he knew what Cordelia was thinking.

[Thank you. It could only be you.]

[Hmph, you won’t get anything if you say that, okay?]

Cordelia reflexively snorted and tried to get up, so Jude naturally stretched out his hand to help her.

[Okay, I’ll concede to you once and become Pink Bomb.]

[Thank you, Princess. I’ll do my best in making dynamite.]

[Whatever.]

You’ll somehow find a way out anyway. Just like a sly person.

[And Cordelia, don’t be too worried. After all, the ‘Return of the Rogue Master’ will leave such a deep impression that you’ll rarely be called Pink Bomb.]

[Is that so?]

[Yes, it will happen. It’s the Rogue Master after all and not anyone else, right?]

[Hmm…]

She was also convinced of his words.

Scarlet actually had several aliases, but she was always called the Rogue Master in the end.

[Anyway, we don’t have much time. We must do our work as soon as possible.]

[I know that, so are we delivering it today? The notice card?]

[Yes, this card is the notice card.]

Cordelia received the card from Jude and read it as it shone in the moonlight.

On the day of the full moon two days later, I will take the Green Goddess’ Teardrop.

–Rogue Master Pink Bomb

There were several lines written in a very neat handwriting on the white card, and a pink lip mark was at the last part.

[Whose lips are these? No way…]

[Ahem, ahem. That’s a sample… But let’s put my princess’ kiss mark for the real thing.]

When Jude slightly blushed and coughed, Cordelia laughed and nodded her head.

[I’ll keep this though. It’s proof that my Jude is a human being who also knows how to be embarrassed.]

Cordelia giggled as kept the card like a precious item. She then saw Jude handing her new cards.

[Three more?]

[One will be sent to a corrupt rich man who’ll be the victim, and the other two will be sent to the Black Moon and Blue Moon.]

[Blue Moon? Is that the largest guild among the thief guilds that do not cooperate with the Black Moon?]

[That’s right. Our goal is to publicize the name of the Rogue Master.]

The founding celebration was a month away, so they needed to build a reputation that would be enough to move the guilds within three weeks.

[We’ll deliver the notice today and steal the gem two days later.]

[By the way, who is the person we’ll be robbing this time?]

[It’s a corrupt rich man who’s one of the Minister of Defense’s source of funds. If we’re going to steal things, it’s better if it’s a person from the Minister of Defense’s side.]

[The Green Goddess’ Teardrop… Is this a gem?]

[Yes, it’s a gem that can give the blessing of the war god. We’re going to steal something useful. It’ll become a hot topic.]

Everything that he said was correct.

Cordelia did not say anything else and just walked to the dressing table to apply lipstick on her lips.

[Give me the cards.]

[Here.]

[Why are there four cards? You said that you’ll send the notice to three places.]

[I want one of them as a keepsake.]

[Hmph.]

Cordelia hmphed and stamped her lips on all four before she handed it to Jude.

[Are you going to deliver it now then?]

[Yes, I’ll go and come back, so just go to sleep. You’re not familiar with this area yet, right?]

[Okay, I’ll be going to sleep, so you can go.]

[Yes, Princess. I’ll see you tomorrow morning.]

Jude gracefully greeted her in a theatrical manner before he flew out of the window like the wind, and Cordelia stared at her reflection in the vanity mirror.

A phantom thief who wore a black butterfly mask and had rabbit ears in her head.

‘It looks cute.’

Cordelia wiggled the rabbit tail and even tried to strike a pose before she let out the following words from her mouth.

“I-in the name of justice…I will punish you?”

She was embarrassed. She was seriously embarrassed. She felt that she would die of embarrassment even though she had muttered it very quietly.

But she felt a bit ecstatic at the same time.

A joy that was difficult to describe.

However, it was only for a moment.

Because she felt a gaze behind her back.

“Uh… I left something behind.”

Jude smiled as naturally as possible and he picked up something that fell on the floor without saying a single word before he went out of the window again. Cordelia who was left alone then squatted on the floor and covered her face with both hands.

She stayed and did not move from that position for a long time.
