Chapter 98 : Won_t delay you guys
Chapter 98 - Won't delay you guys?
Winnie and Aesphyra's practical report was completed and submitted. The good news was that both achieved excellent results, although there was a deviation from perfection, but obviously, no one had anticipated such a possibility.
Who would have thought that a seemingly simple incident involving a Demon snake would actually involve a demon lord?
Not only did the administration of Carillian Academy not expect it, but even the person involved, Julliana, didn't foresee that she would appear in a nameless small border village of humans, executing a rebel in front of two Carillian Academy students.
After the incident, the academic dean of Carillian Academy asked the two to describe the detailed process and experience, as this practical assessment involves a demon lord, and not just any, but Julliana, the lord of the Fox Demon and Succubus territories, who is extremely powerful among demon lords.
Ẃе̃ b̌ n ó vе́l Е̃n̄um̆a
“So, you're saying that the demon lord Julliana appeared in the border village of Lake in the empire not to declare war or provoke, or to perform any hostile actions, but simply to deal with a disobedient traitor?” Dean frowned.
“Yes, at least on the surface, that's what we heard from their interaction. Julliana came to eliminate the succubus who was breaking the rules, provoking the relationship between fox demons, succubi, and humans, and intending to incite war.

Of course, the possibility of it being deliberate cannot be ruled out, but it's very slim. It's unlikely that Jiuluxue would make such a big deal, bringing all her important ministers and confidants just to do something so meaningful,” Aesphyra replied.
“I think there must be some division within Julliana's ranks, and she brought all her subordinates to watch her execute the traitor to set an example, to show all her subordinates that this is the fate of demons who continue to disobey her commands.”
“However, Julliana seemed to have little interest in us, which is why we had the chance to escape,” Aesphyra omitted the most crucial part, summarizing it briefly.
To say so isn't wrong; Julliana indeed didn't have much killing intent towards them, and none towards Winnie. If it wasn't for Aesphyra's soul being that of a “Hero,” they wouldn't have attracted the trouble with Carillian Academy and would have been let go directly.

"This incident was indeed our oversight. We will send a team of instructors to investigate the area. Your practical assessment results are set as excellent. Additionally, due to the academy's negligence, we will provide you with appropriate compensation," Dean pondered for a moment.
“I deeply apologize that the instructor's evaluation nearly put your lives in danger,” Dean then expressed his sincere apologies to the two.
“Ah, it's not entirely the instructors' fault. Who would have thought it would turn out like this? Probably even Julliana herself didn't expect it?” Winnie scratched his head.
Based on the current human assessment of the demon race, humans completely did not believe that the demons would declare war on human countries at this time. After all, the demons are almost tearing each other apart internally; declaring war on humans and fighting on multiple fronts would be suicidal.

Given the current internal war situation of the demons, if it wasn't for the demons' distrust of humans, they would probably be eager to ally with humans to attack other demons. How could they have the mind to declare war on humans?
Yes, who would have thought that the demons would make such a hostile move against humans at this time? According to rational logic, this is something that should never have happened.
Е ňum а̌ .іd
But reality is often more fantastical than rational analysis, and many times it doesn't follow logic.
After the empire learns of the incident, Emperor Tyrell will likely lead the empire's elite knights to hold Julliana accountable. As for what the outcome will be and whether the two sides can reach an agreement, that remains unknown and is none of their business.
The questioning ended, and the two returned, preparing for the final practical combat assessment.
But before that, Winnie still had to continue his work in the student council. It's the duty of a student council member; while others rest, he still has to complete the backlog of work from these days.
Winnie arrived at the student council hall and immediately saw the familiar figure directing other lower-grade students.
“Yo! Senior, busy? I'm back, is there any work for me?” Winnie greeted the senior warmly.

Winnie is always kind to those who treat him well and don't look at him through tinted glasses.
“Oh, Winnie, you're finally back?” The senior also noticed Winnie, looking at him with a raised eyebrow. “I thought you were snatched by wolves on the way, coming back so late.”
“Hey, being two people, we encountered some minor troubles, but who am I? I took care of it all!” Winnie boasted.
“A two-person practical task? You didn't cause any trouble for them, did you? Did you thank them properly when you came back?” The senior almost didn't need to ask to know who was dragging whom down.
“Senior, is that how you've always seen me? Couldn't it be that I took charge this time?”
“...” The senior didn't speak, just squinted and stared at Winnie.

“Uh, well, maybe I'm a bit unreliable usually, but that's just usually!”
“Who was the classmate with you this time, also a member of the student council?”

“Eh? Senior, how did you know?”
“Let me guess, it wouldn't be Aesphyra, would it?” The senior updated at Winnie.
“Senior, have you seen the assessment list??”
“No, but among the first-year students who haven't returned, are you and her? Indeed, the only one who could handle you is probably Aesphyra,” the senior sobbed.

“Well, it's good that you're back safe. Just in time, I need someone to do some manual labor, oh no, some non-technical work. Go get the stack of blue files on the president's desk in the president's office.”
“Okay.” Winnie could only nod, choosing to ignore the senior's mention of manual labor.
Speaking of which, he hadn't seen Mirexia for a long time, and he hadn't informed her of his return yet.
So, Winnie arrived at the student president's office door and knocked on the council door.

“Come in.” Mirexia's calm voice came from inside.
“Yo, Mirexia, I'm back.” Winnie pushed the door open and greeted Mirexia with a smile.
Wӗ b̈ ň_о vеl̄ E n u̇ḿ а
“Oh.” However, to Winnie's surprise, Mirexia's reaction was unusually flat, even to the extent of being somewhat cold.
Winnie wondered if he had heard wrong.
He thought that after not seeing each other for so long, Mirexia would ask him to sit down and chat with him.
He must be overthinking and being too sensitive; maybe Mirexia is just too busy to talk to him right now.
Looking at Mirexia, who was working at her desk without looking up, Winnie thought so.
Otherwise, it couldn't be that he did something to upset Mirexia, could it?

Don't be ridiculous; he just got back and hasn't even had the chance to see Mirexia yet. Mirexia just found out he's back; how could he have had the time to upset her??
“Sorry, Mirexia, for disturbing you. The senior asked me to pick up a set of files.” As he spoke, Winnie picked up the stack of blue files on Mirexia's desk. “I'll come back after I'm done. If you need any help, remember to tell me, just like usual.”
“Not necessary.” Mirexia didn't look up. “I'm not that busy here.”
“Uh? Okay, it's better not to force yourself. If there's anything, remember to tell me.” Seeing her clearly refuse, Winnie felt somewhat awkward for some reason, but since Mirexia didn't need his help, he should leave and not disturb her.
With that, Winnie was about to leave when he heard a soft voice from behind.
“Wouldn't this disturb your date with Aesphyra?”
Ѐ n u m а̃ . ї d̃
“??What??” Winnie wondered if he had heard wrong, tilting his head to look at Mirexia, who was steadily reviewing documents at her seat.
Well, Mirexia should be seriously handling official business, but...

Maybe it was Winnie's imagination, but he felt like Mirexia's eyes were glancing sideways, seemingly not on the documents at all.
Combined with the inexplicably resentful tone in her previous sentence, Winnie felt that if he left now without saying anything, things would get out of hand later.
Although he didn't know where this thought came from, he just had it.
“Uh, Mirexia, what did you just say?” Winnie asked again.
Ě n̊ umа̊. i̊ d̂
“If Aesphyra knew you were here with me, wouldn't she misunderstand?” Mirexia's azure eyes were fixed on the documents on the desk, but upon closer inspection, one can see that her eyes were unfocused, not actually looking at the documents.
“Misunderstand?.... No, why? Why would she misunderstand? What could she misunderstand?” This out-of-the-blue question confuses Winnie.
Damn it, he didn't even know what Aesphyra could misunderstand, yet Mirexia seemed to 'know clearly'??
Who's got the problem here??

“Such things are not something to be ashamed of.” Mirexia finally put down her pen, but her eyes still didn't look at Winnie.
“Yesterday, a student council member saw you and Aesphyra in the coffee shop. They overheard your conversation.”
E ň ü m̆ ā.id̂
“........” Overheard??
Seeing Mirexia's eyes not looking at him and saying this, paired with her strange behavior last night, Winnie instantly realized something.
No way?
Yesterday, when he and Aesphyra went to the coffee shop to do their practical assignment, was Mirexia also in the coffee shop??
But, he looked around that day, and there were only a few customers in the coffee shop??
Could Mirexia have been at the next table, just out of his sight??

The more Winnie thought about it, the more likely it seemed.
As for the student council member testifying it and her overhearing it, that's obvious nonsense.
“But, we were doing our practical assignment? This time, I was paired with Aesphyra, and I didn't have time to tell you, you had already left,” Winnie couldn't help but said.
“....Is that so?” Mirexia remained silent for a long time before squeezing out these two words.
Damn.
This familiar feeling made Winnie feel like he had once again triggered Mirexia's side quest.
W е̃ b̀n о̇ v́е́ l E n̆ ùm̆ӑ
What's more desperate is that after these two words, Mirexia remains silent, neither letting him leave directly nor asking him to stay.
With Mirexia's personality, many things are expressed very differently, not directly.

This situation is the worst, as it essentially throws all the problems at Winnie's face. She doesn't say anything, letting Winnie think and guess on his own.
Guessing right brings no reward, guessing wrong brings punishment.
Winnie pursed his lips. His brain usually operates at a low capacity, but in such critical moments, it always overloads.
Mirexia probably heard the whole thing yesterday. If Mirexia was really there, listen to his and Aesphyra's conversation.
W ë bňо vе̂ l _Е̇ nu̇ ḿ ä
If that's the case.
Winnie quickly recalled all the conversations he had with Aesphyra in the coffee shop yesterday.
“Ah, Mirexia, I think that student council member must have misheard, or heard correctly but didn't understand correctly,” Winnie explained.
“Oh?” Like a computer rebooting, Mirexia finally moved, lifting her gaze for the first time to look at Winnie.

“First, Aesphyra and I weren't on a date, we were completing our practical assignment, which you know. Second, Aesphyra's statements were somewhat misleading, but in fact, she didn't mean it that way. She even joked with me before, saying 'so-called pet names are just what you like to call her.'”
“Oh, by the way, you might not believe it, but this time I saved her life, so to thank me, she gave me something.” After saying this, Winnie brought it up as if by accident.
Е̄n úm̀а . і ď
“....You saved her?” Mirexia was surprised. It wasn't that she didn't believe Winnie could save Aesphyra; In her view, Winnie had the capability. She just couldn't believe that a first-year practical task could put Aesphyra and Winnie in danger.
“Yes, if you don't believe me, you can ask Dean. Our task this time was quite dangerous, and the nature was too special. Dean even came to us afterward to understand the situation. We just came back from there.” Winnie spread his hands.
“Are you two alright? Were you hurt anywhere?” Mirexia's expression changed as she asked.
At this point, Mirexia was completely convinced.
Moreover, thinking of her previous judgment based on one-sided words and her petty emotions, she felt she had been very unreasonable.
'Virtue + 300.'

'Current Virtue: 3544.'
She didn't want to be like this. In fact, she also felt her behavior was irrational, but, for some reason.
From yesterday to today, after witnessing Aesphyra and Winnie's 'date,' her mind has been quite unsettled, her heart a mix of emotions.
She didn't know what was wrong with her. She and Winnie are childhood friends, good friends, and Aesphyra is also her friend. Shouldn't she be happy that her friends are getting along??
What right does she have to hinder their relationship?
Yes.
Ŵ è b̈nо̀ v̀ еl̃ .Ѐ n̈ ū m̂ ӑ
From a rational standpoint, that's how it should be, but emotionally, Mirexia couldn't convince herself, feeling so sour that it was hard to sleep.
