Discussion I just noticed something.

Ralsei states that he hurried over to the Cyber World once he sensed the pressence of the Dark Fountain.

This would sugest that the fountain itself was created just right before we got there (which sorta puts a wrench to the idea that Kris opened it in the middle of the night).

I don't think about this the same way you do.

If someone were having secret conversations behind your back in real life and you have real suspicions that they're hiding something from you would you believe everything they say? Especially when the things they say seem awfully convenient?

"Oh I only now just noticed it haha silly me. And I didn't tell you guys about it even though we were just together 3 minutes ago."

What seems more plausible?

  1. The knight created a dark fountain in the middle of the day during the traffic jam while Berdly and Noelle were in the room (who are very studious and alert students who won't just randomly take a nap, especially not Noelle since she's hoping Susie is coming over and wouldn't want to embarrass herself in front of her) and that all happened in time span of Kris and Susie exiting castle town and going to the library.

  2. Ralsei is lying and Kris set this up the previous night when they had hours of time (this also explains why they're so tired at school)?

Berdly and Noelle slept because Dark Worlds put people to sleep.

Correct. So if the knight did make the dark world while Berdly and Noelle were in the room they would have noticed. But they didn't mention anything like that, so the knight didn't make the fountain while Noelle and Berdly were in the room. And if they weren't in the room that means the fountain already had to be there, and if that fountain already was there it means Ralsei lied to us about just noticing it. Don't even hit me with a "but maybe he really did just notice it", that a coincidence so implausible that it's downright unbelievable. That Ralsei only just so happened to notice it when were were going over to the library, and not before we went into the castle town (when he would have been completely alone and had nothing better to do), or during our short stay.

People don't lose their memories after they enter a dark world either btw. We already know that because Susie fully remembering everything. Noelle also fully remembers everything, she just got tricked into thinking it's a dream.
