Chapter 57 : The meaning is not in the words
Chapter 57 - The meaning is not in the words
Isatia was still sitting beside him reading a book.
Winnie didn't take the initiative to communicate with her, only occasionally asking her for solutions and problem-solving ideas when he got stuck on a question.
Isatia wasn't disturbed by Winnie's interruptions either. Her cool, moon-like purple eyes would just glance over and she could immediately understand the type of problem Winnie was working on and what kind of solution was needed.
Winnie was curious, just how many problems had she practiced to develop such terrifying proficiency?
Е nu m.ӑ. і̊d̂
But given the talents of these chosen female protagonists, they didn't have much time to waste on practicing problem sets.
Winnie could guess that if he asked Isatia how much time she spent practicing problems, she might casually say something like “Haven't you memorized this kind of problem after seeing it once?” without even looking up, a typical “humble brag” response.

To protect his self-confidence from being shattered, Winnie decided not to ask. It would just be asking for trouble.
This was just a simple transaction, Winnie had helped Isatia with a small favor, and Isatia didn't want to be disturbed by others, wanting to borrow Winnie's “territory”, so she agreed to tutor Winnie as a condition.
Under Isatia's tutoring, Winnie had no obstacles in solving problems.
At least within the scope of the textbook, as long as he spent some time, he could solve them.

In just an hour and a half, Winnie felt he had made visible progress, and his thinking had become much more flexible, which was quite rare.
He was surprised by Isatia's tutoring ability.
With just a few simple words from her, guiding his thinking, he felt like he had a sudden enlightenment.
In comparison, it was worlds apart from Shikondel's unclear, vague and ambiguous problem-solving ability, even though both were supposed to be chosen female heroines.

But this was quite normal. There are two types of chosen female heroines, one type has particularly strong luck, with other attributes just decent, and even many weaknesses and personality flaws, like Shikondel.
The other type is perfect in both luck and ability, like Aesphyra and Isatia.

Isn't this the tutor he had always dreamed of??
With this in mind, Winnie wished he could run into Isatia in the library every day and be her shield every day.
Hmm, at first glance, this seems no different from those students trying to create chance encounters with Isatia, but he was doing it for a legitimate reason.
For the sake of studying, isn't that different??
Perhaps time always flies when spending it with a beautiful girl. After two hours of problem-solving, Winnie felt mentally drained.
He put down his pen and slumped ungracefully on the bench, rubbing his temples.

He lounged back on the bench without any regard for posture, completely unconcerned about whether the black-haired beauty beside him would view him differently.
During the break, Winnie was able to shift his attention.
He took a deep breath, and a faint, elegant orchid fragrance entered his nostrils, just like the owner of the scent, cool and luxurious, desirable yet unattainable, like an orchid blooming high in the mountains.
Although it might not be good to think this way, upon smelling this fragrance, Winnie felt his previously tense nerves relax, and he unconsciously entered a state of relaxation.
This refreshing yet elegant and noble fragrance, was it her perfume, or the scent of her hair?
In the entire academy, there were probably only a handful of people who could smell the princess's body fragrance at such close range.

Winnie suddenly became curious about what book Isatia was reading. Given her reading speed, she must have finished a large portion of this thick book.
Was it a textbook, or some extracurricular material? Was she also at the library reviewing for the final written exam??

Winnie couldn't help but wonder.
Although given Isatia's level, he didn't think reading like this would bring her much improvement.
Maybe she had no room for improvement left, unlike him, whose room for improvement was vast, almost limitless.
Until Winnie saw the title of the book on the edge of the page - “On the Relationship Between the Church of Radiance and Various Ancient Legends”.
Е̃nûmá
What? So she wasn't studying at all, but had been reading extracurricular material all along??
Just as Winnie was about to look away, he heard the emotionless voice of the girl beside him.
“Interested in this book?”
“Hmm?” Winnie turned his gaze, knowing these words were directed at him, feeling somewhat surprised.

In these two hours, other than when he asked questions, Isatia hadn't spoken an extra word to him, as if everything was strictly business.
She actually initiated a conversation with him without him asking a question??
Ẃ е̄b n̆ о_v̌ ėl .Ẽ n ú ṁ a
“Ah, just a little interested, but not too much.” Winnie felt it would be inappropriate to say he wasn't interested in this kind of theoretical book at all, so he compromised.
“Have you read it?” Isatia asked without looking up.
“Yes, I have.” Winnie affirmed.
“How much?”
“I've read the title, um, just now.” Winnie frowned, pondering.
“.........” Isatia had nothing more to say.

The atmosphere and scene instantly turned cold.
Huh? Why did she stop talking?
Winnie was puzzled.
Could it be that he was too good at chatting, his chat skills were so high that she couldn't keep up with him??
“This book is related to your family.” Just as Winnie thought the conversation had died, the girl's cool, spring-like voice sounded again.
“Oh, is that so?” Winnie looked as if he had a sudden realization. “If you hadn't reminded me, I wouldn't have noticed. It's about the church, right?”
W̆ е̂ b́ n о̃věľ Е nǔ m̆а
“The Radiant Saintess once held an extraordinary status, even on par with the emperor of the ancient Carillian Empire.” Ignoring Winnie's playful response, Isatia's gaze remained on the lines of text.
“Back then, if they had truly cooperated, there wouldn't have been the later fall of the ancient Carillian Empire, nor today's...” Isatia glanced seriously at Winnie beside her. “Road to Dead Bloodline.”

It was obvious who this “Road to Dead Bloodline” referred to.
“Is that so? I don't think so.” Winnie put away his previously casual expression.
“The ancient empire and the church, these two behemoths would inevitably develop significant rifts over time, it was destined.”
“Many chronic illnesses are accumulated over time, and when they become too severe, there's no cure. At the most tense times, the ancient Carillian Empire and the Church of Radiance probably couldn't even sit at the same table and have a calm discussion, right?” Before Winnie could finish, there was a 'knock knock' sound on the table.

Huh? What's going on?
Winnie frowned, his first thought was that he had run into some acquaintance?
Could it be someone looking for Isatia?
Probably not, those 'bodyguards' didn't even have the courage to sit at the same table to eat, how could they dare to be so blatant??

“Who is it?” Winnie thought it might be some card player looking for him, but before he could turn his gaze, he caught that familiar cold rose fragrance, and then saw that captivating face.
“Oh? Is it really you, Winnie?” The silver-haired girl with a charming smile held a book in one hand, tapping the table with its corner, tilting her head to look at Winnie.
Eñ ũm̄а . і̂d̃
What do you mean, 'is it really you'??
And why is this sour, astringent little orange-like person from outside the monastery so persistent??
“Hey, who are you, miss? Do we know each other?” Winnie said impatiently.
Just seeing this face made him angry now.
“It's only been a few days and you're pretending not to know me? Just the other day before you left, you told me to be careful not to get hurt and all that.” Aesphyra looked quite hurt.
“Looks like you need a scolding every three days, or you'll climb up on the roof. Why do you keep clinging to this young master?? Don't be so thick-skinned, okay?? Didn't I tell you? I don't like your kind of sour, astringent little oranges, and the key point is they're small!” In the library, he couldn't speak too loudly, which greatly limited Winnie's ability to express himself. He could only lower his voice and glare at Aesphyra.

‘Young master remembers you making fun of him a few days ago, right?? Alright, want to compete to see who's the most abstract and shameless? Now it's the young master's turn to act, watch how I make you run away with your tail between your legs!’
Aesphyra tilted her head like a cute white-haired cat. She wasn't sure if it was her imagination, but she felt that Winnie's temper towards her this time seemed much higher than she had expected.
“No, I just arrived, and I was very surprised to see a certain person who doesn't study... oh, forgive my wording, I mean someone who absolutely shouldn't appear in the library, so I came over to confirm, and it really is you, Winnie?” Aesphyra looked genuinely surprised.
Damn it.
Upon hearing this, Winnie's blood pressure immediately shot up.
Perhaps because he always ended up at a disadvantage with Aesphyra, Winnie felt his resistance to her words had become quite low.
Е̃ ń u m а́ . і̀d̀
Whenever he heard her speak, he couldn't help but argue with her.
“Hmph! You small flat bread, if only you'd learn more and read more usually! You lack knowledge and your horizons are too narrow. The reason I don't usually come to the library is because I don't need to. I've learned that if all the knowledge in the world were a stone, I'd have everyone owing me two pecks, you know that??” Winnie pointed at himself with his thumb.

“That's why your knowledge is just like your little sour and astringent oranges that look like they're malnourished, tsk tsk, you'll never make it in life.” Winnie spread his hands, shaking his head and sighing with a look that begged for a punch.
“.......” Aesphyra smiled without speaking.
'Virtue + 60.'
'Current Virtue: 6384.'
Еn̊ um̈а̀
Hohoho, you hateful little silver-haired, you finally couldn't hold it in and gave me virtue points, huh??
You're too little to compete with me!
Isatia silently watched their interaction. Of course, she recognized the silver-haired girl talking to Winnie, her appearance was too distinctive for her not to.
That Aesphyra, who had surpassed her in entrance exam scores, yet came from a minor noble family.

Isatia hadn't had much contact with Aesphyra, or rather, there hadn't been many opportunities to interact, even though they were in the same class.
For Isatia, for some reason, she always felt a sense of familiarity in Aesphyra's violet eyes.
W̌ е bn̄о̇ v̈е̂l̈ E n̄ u̇ m̌ ӑ
They were very similar to the eye color of the Lanteville, and the Lanteville family's eye color originated from...
But it was probably just a coincidence. The ancient imperial family, the Carillian, had been exterminated and left no heirs, as everyone knew.
“Good day, Isatia. You're as beautiful and charming as ever today~ The moment I entered the library, my eyes were drawn to you.” Aesphyra teased half-jokingly.
When speaking to Isatia, Aesphyra immediately changed her demeanor, elegant and proper, lifting her skirt and speaking softly.
Oh ho??
Winnie suddenly understood.

So that's what it was.
All this time, the drunkard's interest wasn't in the wine? So the dagger was revealed so quickly??
Winnie thought, why would this silver-haired cat take the initiative to approach him for no reason? So she was eyeing this opportunity to interact with Isatia, using him as a stepping stone??
“Good day, Aesphyra.” Isatia responded indifferently.
She didn't dislike Aesphyra, nor did she harbor any jealousy towards her for taking the top spot in their grade.
To be honest, she was very curious about Aesphyra's eyes.
E n̆ ú ḿа
Winnie really wanted to curse and expose Aesphyra's intentions, but unexpectedly, she smoothly pulled over a chair and sat down.
“Hey hey, you're really good at making yourself at home, huh? Who invited you to sit down??” Winnie complained.

“Eh, but isn't the library seating open to anyone?”
