I Became The Mafia Boss Inside The Novel

Chapter 85 Plans (3)

Elias was suddenly struck with realization.

Red and Blue Apartment was a place occasionally mentioned in the novel.

Despite its simplistic name, the apartment was also very famous among the fan community.

It was because Alice Heartfelt, one of the most well-received main characters in the novel, lived in the Red and Blue Apartment.

'What the hell kinda damning coincidence is this...'

Elias was speechless. Why did it seem like he had such a close fate with some of his characters?

For example, the body he took over was coincidentally related to Hajin Sanchez, one of the side characters in the novel.

Then, he coincidentally met and paired with Celestia and Ragna in the academy examination, both significant characters in the novel as well.

Thereafter, he was given a mission by the system to kill Garuda, making him meet Rain and the others and saving them in the process.

And now... he was coincidentally living at the same apartment — Red and Blue apartment — as Alice Heartfelt.

Maybe he was just reaching an unreasonable conclusion about the matter, or he was just overthinking things again, but his instincts told him otherwise.

And if he knew himself — he always trusted his instincts.

Elias's face turned heavy and grim. Although he was suspicious at first, this particular coincidence was the nail in the coffin.

It made him confirm the conjecture he had at the start.

He was, somewhat or in a way — 'coincidentally' set up by something to form interactions and relationships with his characters.

Being related to Hajin Sanchez, pairing with Celestia and Ragna, saving Rain and the rest, and finally... living with Alice Heartfelt.

As the saying goes, "First time is luck. The second time is a coincidence. But the third time... there's clearly a pattern."

Originally, he did not consider saving Rain and his group as a coincidence because he did it of his own will in accepting the mission — but this made him change his perspective on the matter.

Did the creator, or being behind the system know him enough to predict that he would do the mission by his own choice anyway?

'What if...'

Elias frowned, in deep thought. This type of feeling... it was as though he was being controlled or led by someone behind the scenes, but he couldn't do anything about it.

He hated this powerless feeling that he was experiencing.

After a while, the nightly moon shone. The wind drifted, and the students all over the city slowly went to their own dorms.

Under the night sky where no noise drifted, Elias stood quietly in front of the Red and Blue Apartment, staring at it with an indecipherable expression.

***

Thump! Thump...

Looking at his own Student ID Card, Elias found his designated room number. He raised his head and looked at the top of the blue door in front of him.

'Room 12'

It seemed like he was in the right place.

After confirming it, he nodded slowly and knocked on the blue door, but after a while, no one answered him.

Elias tilted his head in wonder before he thought of something. He held the doorknob and instantly realized it was open.

Then, he twisted it as he slowly went inside.

Creak...

Inside the room was dark, and empty.

Elias walked inside the room and slowly closed the door behind him with a thud. He quietly opened the lights and saw that no one was in the apartment.

'It seems like my roommates are still outside…'

Looking around, he checked the place he was going to stay in for the foreseeable future. The apartment was rather sufficient.

There were two beds placed in the room. One was a medium-sized single bed in the left corner, and the other was a bunk bed in the right corner.

Between the two beds, there was a large TV placed on a small circular wooden table.

From the left side of the room, there was a door to the kitchen. And from the right, there was a door to the bathroom.

It wasn't that large of an apartment, but if Elias were to say so himself it was already enough. This was more or less what he was expecting for a free apartment.

'Thankfully, Alice isn't my roommate....'

Seemingly tired, Elias sighed and undressed his black suit. He hung it on the clothes rack beside the door and proceeded to the single bed.

'Today was eventful… to say the least.'

Elias sat on the single bed, making himself comfortable. Since there was no one around at the moment, it was alright to make himself comfortable…

Whoosh...

He fell to the bed as he let the soft texture caress his body. He raised his head and looked at the apartment ceiling.

A few months ago, his ceiling was still his apartment back on Earth. Then, all of a sudden, it was replaced with the grey ceiling of a prison cell.

Now it was different… too different.

It was a lesson learned for him. Life was unpredictable at times. He could be on Earth for a moment and be transported to another world the next second.

A world where magic was possible.

A place torn by disaster and war.

Aegis, where the future was dead.

Elias took a deep sigh, letting himself vulnerable for the moment. He wanted to relax and stop, but there was still a lot left to be done.

There was no room for compromise. Even if life or the world itself threw the hardest obstacles at him, he wouldn't stop.

He would never stop.

Elias's eyes flickered silently.

His body lay on the soft mattress, and the air-conditioner in the room made his body cold. There was no noise, no distaction, only calm silence in the room.

At that moment, he felt drowsiness creep into him. It was normal — although he could sleep late at times, at this particular day, he was extremely tired.

As consequence of using [One Punch] his spirit was left strained and tired, causing him to feel extremely tired and exhausted.

He tried to hide it, but now that he was alone, he couldn't repress his desire to take a rest anymore. It took over his mind and body.

'Oh shit... I forgot to get my suitcase...'

Before he fell asleep, Elias last thought was that he forgot to get his things. But there was always tomorrow, and a nice sleep like this was too rare for him.
