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 wasnt 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 Im stupid? In the first place, why did you use the name Pink Bomb in your letter to Velkian? Care to explain?]

[Didnt you agree to using it back then? Pink Bomb?]

[I seriously thought you were joking then!]

[Hey, I didnt lie to you.]

[Argh, f*ck. Are you trying to get me mad on purpose? You didnt lie?

My

scammer, Jude?]

[But Im still part of

yours

.]

[If you dont explain it properly, youll be

someone elses

Jude from today onwards! Do you understand?!]

T/N: Here we are with the word play again. The literal translations are actually My houses scammer, But Im still part of our house, and youll be the Jude of someone elses house Its hard to explain in English about the house thing because its something unique to Korean culture, but you can just think or replace it with the word family.

So when Cordelia calls Jude as her familys scammer, Jude retorts by saying that at least, hes still part of her family. But Cordelia threatens to kick him out of her family, thus becoming the Jude of someone elses family.

[Okay, Ill explain.]

[What, youll 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. Its the name of the main character in Velkians favorite novel.]

Cordelias eyes narrowed at Judes words, but she couldnt say anything else.

Because while she had heard of this for the first time, it was something that came out of Judes 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 Velkians 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?]

[Its different! Its really, really, completely different, okay?!]

[Yes, its different. Very different. Yes, yes, its different. Its very different.]

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

[F*ck, youre 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 Its been a while since Ive heard you say so many curse words, so its 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 dont have to worry about it too much. Youll be able to do it well.]

[Hooo, hey. Are you worried that Ill do something wrong? I wont. I will not. I can do it. I will be Pink Bomb.]

[Ummwell I cant help it if you dislike it that much.]

[Eh? Really? Youll really do it?]

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

[Wait, what are you talking about? The clothes dont fit? Youre 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 Judes 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 Ill just do it. Ill do it.]

She couldnt bear to see something like that.

After all, he was her fianc.

No, apart from being her fianc, 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 wont 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, Ill concede to you once and become Pink Bomb.]

[Thank you, Princess. Ill do my best in making dynamite.]

[Whatever.]

Youll somehow find a way out anyway. Just like a sly person.

[And Cordelia, dont be too worried. After all, the Return of the Rogue Master will leave such a deep impression that youll rarely be called Pink Bomb.]

[Is that so?]

[Yes, it will happen. Its 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 dont 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. Thats a sample But lets put my princess kiss mark for the real thing.]

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

[Ill keep this though. Its 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 wholl 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?]

[Thats 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.

[Well deliver the notice today and steal the gem two days later.]

[By the way, who is the person well be robbing this time?]

[Its a corrupt rich man whos one of the Minister of Defenses source of funds. If were going to steal things, its better if its a person from the Minister of Defenses side.]

[The Green Goddess Teardrop Is this a gem?]

[Yes, its a gem that can give the blessing of the war god. Were going to steal something useful. Itll 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 youll 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, Ill go and come back, so just go to sleep. Youre not familiar with this area yet, right?]

[Okay, Ill be going to sleep, so you can go.]

[Yes, Princess. Ill 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 justiceI 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.
