Villain: After I died, all the heroines cried themselves to sleep.

The train sped along the tracks.

Inside the carriage, Anjie looked at Luo De beside her, still somewhat hesitant.

"Teacher, have you really remembered everything?"

"Of course it's true."

Rod looked at Ange, who was hesitating, and found it somewhat amusing.

He wasn't lying; he now possesses memories of countless past time loops.

All of this is thanks to the Soul Technique.

As mentioned before, past experiences are etched deep into the soul.

Even if the memories in the mind are erased, the lost memories can be brought back by stimulating the soul.

Of course, the actual operation is not that simple.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have had to wait until now to regain their memories.

Rod rubbed Ange's head.

"So you no longer have to be alone, carrying those heavy memories. Leave the rest to me."

"Um……"

Ange lowered her head, seemingly enjoying Rod's affectionate caresses.

After a while, Rod withdrew his hand, and she reluctantly raised her head, looking puzzled.

"But teacher, what do you plan to do? I am the culprit who caused all this, and I also want to do my part to help you."

"I've basically finished the preliminary work I needed to do."

Rhodes gave a meaningful reply.

When all his memories returned, he learned his ultimate plan.

If it weren't for his serious and unsmiling personality, he probably would have already exclaimed "Holy crap!"

I really want to give a huge thumbs up to my past self who came up with this idea.

Wow, you're a real genius!

Even someone with omniscience and omnivision who can see and interfere with all possibilities of the past, present, and future would never have imagined such an operation.

Or perhaps it is precisely because He is omniscient and omniscient that He is unable to see through Rhodes's trump card.

"If you really want to help, then get along well with Luna and the others, and stop doing those lawless things."

"...What things did the teacher talk about?"

Ange pursed her lips and gazed at Rhodes.

What do you think?

Rhodes glanced at Ange.

Now, when he recalls certain time loops he experienced in the past, he feels a twitching in his stomach.

It can only be said that most of the witch's prophecies during the Witch's Day celebrations were correct.

"..."

Ange also realized that Rod possessed memories of the past.

This naturally includes the many shameful and embarrassing things she did when she was in a state of self-abandonment.

Her face instantly turned bright red.

"This, this is all because the teacher doesn't care about me and always focuses his attention on other women."

Anjie blushed and stammered as she tried to explain.

"And, and compared to me, the others aren't much better off..."

"..."

So you've fallen into this together, haven't you?

Rod's lips twitched slightly.

Ironically, based on her memory, Ange was right.

Needless to say, the empress who wanted to die with him was also a possibility.

Then there's the witch Krona. If left unchecked, she'll self-seal, but if you intervene, she'll turn into a demon, forcing you to step in and get slashed by the rampaging witch in various ways.

Unlike the witch, Luna, if intervened early, will regain her spirits. However, if ignored, she will eventually turn completely evil and become a ruthless executioner who secretly protects herself and kills everyone.

The witch on the verge of going berserk, and the queen who died for love, both suffered at Luna's hands.

Only Ange, who knows about the time loop, can escape this calamity...

Rhodes figured it out.

The women around me all possess unique skills.

"In short, whether it's you or anyone else, I hope you can all get along peacefully."

Luo De spoke earnestly, adding a final sentence at the end.

"This is also a necessary condition for ending all of this."

"Since you've said so, teacher, of course I'll listen... but if they try to take you away from me, I will never back down."

Ange looked up and hugged Rod's arm tightly.

……

On the way back to the capital, as expected, they were subjected to a terrorist attack by the Advent Society.

This cycle is different from any of the past cycles.

The number and level of the assassins had increased significantly, and they even sent out one of the last remaining elders of the Advent Society, attempting to blow up the bridge and cause the train to plunge into the abyss.

Of course, such an attack ultimately couldn't cause much of a stir in the face of Rhodes and Ange.

"It seems the Advent Society has also sensed the unease and wants to stop me."

Rhodes looked down at the corpse of the Advent Elder at his feet.

Even as it lay dying, the other creature continued to bark and howl, mocking Rhodes's death throes.

Unfortunately, all the preparations for Project Rhodes had already been completed in the previous cycle.

The irreversible rules of the past also apply to external gods.

Once we return to the imperial capital...

Rhodes returned to the family mansion, following the same route he had taken.

The witch came to visit that evening.

Rhodes told the witch directly.

"Don't be so sentimental. Klara, I will let you live."

"???"

The witch stared wide-eyed in astonishment.

"Professor, how do you know my real name? And why did you say something about surviving..."

"It's a secret."

Rod gave a meaningful smile.

"Let me keep the mystery until the very end."

"W-W-W-This sounds so much like my lines?!"

The witch was bewildered in the wind.

He even stopped saying "Na," which he used to say all the time.

It wasn't until Angela arrived at Rhodes' bedroom door that the witch came to her senses and rode away on her flying broom.

Rod reluctantly opened the door and looked at Ange, who was wearing a nightgown.

Goodnight, teacher.

"...Is there any need to do this?"

"Of course there are. The stray cats haven't been adopted by the teachers yet. If they see a stray cat stealing fish, their pet cats will also get upset."

Ange pouted slightly, bowed to Rod, and then calmly left.

"..."

This guy definitely did it on purpose.

Rod chuckled and shook his head.

……

The next day, Rhodes went to the Imperial Academy and obtained the research data on soul magic formulas from the witch.

The witch was still scratching her head, trying to get to the bottom of the fact that her real name had been revealed.

Rod simply smiled without saying a word.

After leaving the dean's office, Rod first went to see Professor Moya and learned about the whereabouts of the Golden Generation and Luna.

"The teacher clearly knows Luna's whereabouts, so why did he specifically come to ask Professor Moya?"

"This is to ensure that everything proceeds as smoothly as possible according to the predetermined trajectory of destiny."

"I thought the teacher wanted to visit Professor Moya..."

"...You're overthinking it. Professor Moya and I are just teaching competitors."

As they talked, they soon arrived at Livia's house.

In the attic on the top floor, I found Luna curled up on the bed, looking lost and distraught.

Rhodes has remembered that Luna's parents were members of the Advent Order, and that he killed them for Luna's sake.

However, this past memory was likely interfered with by the omniscient and omnipotent, making it impossible to recall.

Luna broke down because she knew this truth, which is why she killed herself.

As usual, Rhodes continued his verbal sparring.

Finally, Luna was given a day to think it over.

As a result, Ange, who had come along this time, saw Luna looking hesitant and immediately stepped forward and slapped Luna.

Snapped!

Luna and Rod were both stunned.

"You're nothing special, second place."

Anjie said aggressively.

"The teacher doesn't care anymore, so what are you still hesitating about? The teacher keeps moving forward, while you cower in the past, afraid to face the future. Is that acceptable? Do you still deserve to be the teacher's disciple?"

She kept berating herself, it was unclear whether she was berating Luna or herself.

Luna, upon hearing Ange's insults, suddenly perked up.

"It's always been like this! It's clearly a matter between me and the teacher! But you always have to interfere!"

"Are you kidding me? I'm the top student, and you, as the second-place finisher, are the third wheel!"

The two of them then started passionately fighting right there.

"..."

Rod was both amused and exasperated.

None of his own disciples are easy to deal with.

Regardless, due to Ange's unexpected interference, Luna immediately decided to pull herself together and leave with Rod.

The three of them traveled to Ula City and rescued the Golden Generation, as well as the residents of Ula City, including Yuni.

Back to the imperial capital.

Rhodes immediately went to see the Empress.

He failed to protect the Empress, nor could he take her away from the palace.

This is the last time.

He wants to completely reverse the situation.
