Chapter 132 Changing The Plot



Rain stood at the shore, gazing out at the vast expanse of the sea.

The waves crashed against the shore with such force that it felt as if they were trying to devour the entire world.

The foam and spray rose high like they were reaching for the sky.

As he watched the waves, he couldn't help but think of how his own life was like those unpredictable and ever-changing waves.

"A few months ago, I was supposed to be a villain of the game," he mumbled as he remembered the time he got memories of his previous life.

"Now middle term exams have ended, the students will have a vacation. There won't be any significant events for some time," As he was saying this he paused and shook his head.

Sometimes, things were calm and peaceful, like the gentle lapping of the water against the shore.

"Things will be only peaceful if they went as they were supposed to be." He smiled.

Other times, the waves were tumultuous and overwhelming, like the crashing of the waves against the rocks.

"Plot is changing,"

They felt a sense of unease at the thought of the waves changing constantly, never staying the same.

"If it was past, I wouldn't have thought of changing anything." Rain felt bitterness in his mouth as he remembered his past.

Yet, at the same time, there was a strange sense of comfort in the idea that everything was in a constant state of flux.

In the past, Rain couldn't help but feel like he was just a speck in the grand scheme of things, like a tiny boat bobbing up and down amid a vast ocean.

"Even though I am still insignificant, I have the power to ride the waves of life and navigate my own path." Rain clenched his fist.

And as he stood there, lost in thought, the waves continued to crash against the shore, reminding him that life was unpredictable and ever-changing, but also full of endless possibilities.

"I don't know how things will turn around from now on," Rain sighed.

"Because as the system has said, I have pretty much destroyed the plot." There was a mischievous smile on his face.

"Still, I should try to revise things and come up with scenarios that might happen." Rain thought.

"System, open the logs for the practical exams during the mid-term exams in the original plotline," Rain said.

[Sure, Host]

Soon, multiple files began to open.

[First year of the academy, mid-term exams, practical exam]

When Rain regained his memories from his previous life, he created numerous logs detailing the scenarios of the original plotline.

At that time, he wasn't sure how long he could remember the details, so he saved time by logging everything into the system.

He only had to think, and the system would write it all down.

Rain started to scan the logs and discovered many things.

-The practical exam took place in one of the dungeons operated by the academy. Although there were no major events, it was filled with numerous mini-events.

For example,

-Ben had already been beaten up by Ken, so he became consumed by rage and participated in club activities more.

-On the other hand, Ken saved Arya from being bullied, and now they were good friends.

-Although Rain had already lost a private duel to Ken and his spirits were low, he still hoped to surpass him in ranks.

There was no sign of discord between them.

"Hmm. Yeah," Rain replied, "I will try to turn things to my advantage."

"I also have to speed up things more," he added, as an afterthought.

Just as Rain was thinking of his plan, the smartwatch rang.

[Ding!]

Rain opened notifications. He saw he had notifications from a few people.

First, it was Ben.

[Ben: Call me in your free time.]

After reading this, Rain was curious about things that happened.

So he called Ben.

As Ben's phone rang he quickly picked up.

"Hello~, how was the exam?" Rain said in a cheerful voice.

"You have the guts to ask about that," Ben said in a slightly angry way.

"Oh, what did I do?" Rain asked like he didn't know anything.

"You know what you did. You owe me an explanation." Ben grumbled. He was in an airship now, after dealing with the aftermath they were now returning to the academy.

"Is that so?" Rain said in an amused tone.

"Of course, something happened.

You gave me the map and those vague hints about being alert in the dungeon." Ben spoke as he remembered his experience in the dungeon.

"And you warned me not to touch the treasure and to head to the North East side once the mission was complete."

Ben's voice was filled with confusion. Apparently, whenever he talked with Rain, Rain kept giving him hints indirectly.

A few days ago, when the results of the theoretical exams were announced. That night, as usual, he was talking with Rain about casual things.

At that time, Rain gave him, a many of information and a map of the cave. Ben couldn't comprehend what Rain was saying. But he made preparations according to it.

"You knew about all of this beforehand, didn't you?" Ben asked.

However, Rain didn't answer.

"You know, from the first time I talked with you I am really curious about it. At first, I used to think Ken is a mysterious guy with a secret. But compared to him your whole existence is shrouded with mystery."

As Ben said this, he couldn't help but remember the day when he talked with Rain first time.

At the time, he was too helpless and pathetic. However, Rain stretched his hand to help him. Although he sounded like a scammer at that time, it gave him some mental support to himself.

After that day, he considered Rain as a friend. The more he talked the more he felt Rain was a good guy and his trust increased.

But he still couldn't shake off the doubts.

"Even though you keep saying all the things happening and saying you break off with your family is a ploy. I can hardly believe it." Because of his doubts regarding Rain, Ben asked him many times about where he was, how was hiding from the world, and many things.

However, Rain only gives excuses like it was a little ploy. Ben felt Rain didn't want to reveal it to him.

"You know, I didn't believe in the things you said at first. But as time passed. I couldn't even suspect them."

After the dual, Ben started talking with Rain and phone many times. Sometimes they talked about happenings in the academy and club activities.

Each time, Rain gave him pieces of advice indirectly. As those bits of advice worked, Ben couldn't help but think more.

Ben's voice trailed off as he spoke again. "Tell me clearly, Rain. Just who are you? How do you know these things?"

Rain answered, "I am..."
