Chapter 128 : Final Act
Chapter 128 - Final Act
Winnie bought more clothes for Shikondell, still at the Floral Chamber of Commerce, but this time not in the budget section, but in the high-end noble district. He bought Shikondell some quite neutral outfits, like the kind noble youths wear: a small tie-neck top and shorts, a pair of white stockings that didn't reach the knees, and small black leather shoes. They looked very much in the style of fantasy medieval nobility, and paired with Shikondell's elven ears, they had a rather unique charm.
Hmm, a long-haired elf boy, the kind that would drive a priest crazy.
It wasn't cheap, but the money was compensation from someone else, so it was better to use it than not.
Shikondell actually believed the excuse Winnie casually made earlier.

Could it be that Winnie accidentally discovered the wealth left behind by his ancestors??
And he said ancestor earned it by debuting as an idol?

What is an idol? Shikondell had some understanding after coming into contact with human culture.
Shikondell was curious about which of Winnie's ancestors it was.
“Winnie, is this money really earned by your ancestor debuting as an idol?” Shikondell asked, feeling the comfortable fabric on her body.
“Mm, yes.” Winnie felt like crying and laughing. He didn't expect Shikondell, this little fool, to actually believe him, but he didn't explain further.

“Thank you for the gift, Winnie. I will cherish it well.”
“But, Winnie, isn't it a bit wrong to use your ancestor's money to buy me clothes?” Shikondell felt a little embarrassed.
“It's okay, I asked that ancestor. She said she doesn't mind,” Winnie said.
“Ah? You, you asked?” Shikondell's eyes were full of disbelief.

“Yes, she appeared in my dream and told me that the property was earned by her when she debuted as an idol singer, and I could use it as I pleased,” Winnie teased.
These couldn't exactly be considered lies. His ancestor did appear in his dreams, and more than once. He did have an ancestor who constantly clamored to debut as an idol singer, although history didn't record this side of her.

“Speaking of which, Winnie, why don't you buy yourself something?” Shikondell asked, seeing that only she was wearing new clothes while Winnie was still in his old ones.
“No need.” Winnie meant that he already had a noble dress for high-class banquets, and one was enough. He didn't have much of a pursuit for clothes; as long as they were wearable and presentable, that was fine. His other clothes weren't tattered either, so they were fine to wear.
However, in Shikondell's eyes, Winnie was so reluctant to buy himself clothes while buying them for her, which touched her deeply. In reality, Winnie didn't really need to buy clothes, and he already had a high-class dress.
When it comes to high-class outfits, how could those sold in shops compare to the one personally gifted by Aesphyra??
'Virtue + 50.'
'Current Virtue: 8634.'

After selecting the clothes, Winnie and Shikondell left the shop.
“Dell, speaking of which, have you figured out the pattern of Dark Dell's appearances?” Winnie asked on the way.
“Eh, Dark, Dark Dell??” Shikondell looked bewildered, clearly not knowing who Winnie was referring to.
“Your other personality. I'm currently calling her Dark Dell. Don't you think it's quite fitting?” Winnie explained.
“Dark Dell or something? What does that mean?” Shikondell couldn't help but ask.
“Twisted Dell, wouldn't that be called Dark Dell?” Winnie said dismissively. “Can't I call her that?”
Е ñǔ m̈а̄
“Hmm, it's not that Winnie calls her that, it's just that I'm afraid she'll be unhappy and make things difficult for you next time she appears.”
“You're not her, how do you know she'll be unhappy?” Winnie glanced at Shikondell. “From my observation, Dark Dell seems to share all your memories. That means if you know something, she knows it too, and if you don't, she doesn't either. This means she might be watching our conversation right now?”

“Then, Winnie, aren't you in danger?”
“It's okay, Dark Dell isn't as unreasonable as you think. What era is it now? Everyone is cultured. Who would just start fighting without saying anything upon meeting?”
“Uh... speaking of patterns, my second personality, she rarely appears.” Shikondell fiddled with the cuffs of her sleeves, and seemed very interested in the design of these human clothes.
“Mm, I can see that.” Winnie nodded. From the fact that he hadn't seen Dark Dell appear in the semester he'd spent with Shikondell, he could tell that she rarely appeared and hardly interfered with Shikondell's normal life.

“Then, I think it's only when I encounter trouble that I can't resolve that my second personality will appear.” Shikondell pondered. “She will forcibly take over my consciousness.”
“Then can you call out to her, have a void conversation with her, and let her take over your body?” Winnie continued to ask.
“This? No.” Shikondell answered very decisively. “Because I tried to communicate with her, but I didn't get any response.”
“At that time, I was alone and truly helpless. I wished someone would help me, and I suddenly thought of her. So I tried to talk to her, but it all failed. She wouldn't give me advice, nor would she respond.”

So Shikondell had actually tried?
The two arrived at their doorstep and saw a familiar figure.
W ē b̃n̆о vѐ l Е n̄uḿ а
It was Mirexia's personal maid, Kalin.
“Miss Kalin, we meet again. Thank you for your help before,” Winnie said politely and respectfully.
“You don't need to thank me. Thank my Princess. When she learned that Young Master Winnie was in trouble, she immediately withdrew from state affairs and personally took on the task of investigating the assassins who attacked you,” Kalin said seriously. “I've never seen Princess Mirexia pay so much attention to anyone.”
“I see. Please thank Mirexia for me.” Winnie felt a warmth in his heart. “Shall we go inside to talk?”
“No need. I'm here to tell Young Master Winnie that there's been a problem with the investigation's progress,” Kalin said in a businesslike manner. “The royal soldiers have tried their best but found no clues. These assassins were very clean, and no one was left alive. Although it would have been difficult to leave anyone alive.”
Speaking of which, Kalin changed at Shikondell. “They were most likely cultivated from a young age by the mastermind, trained specifically as death warriors. Even if captured, they would have a way to commit suicide.”

“I'm here because Princess Mirexia wants to ask you if you've provoked anyone with a deep hatred for you in the capital of Camella or elsewhere.”
“Well,” Winnie leaned back tactically. He had a lot to say on this topic.
“Mirexia knows my situation. The people who have minor grudges with me are too numerous to count, from the capital of Camella all the way to the Tyrell Empire. There are so many, and many I haven't even met.”
“But for major grudges, that's hard to say. If I have to say grudges, then I have grudges against them.”
“As for who they are,” Winnie fell silent at this point.
It was difficult to talk about this. After all, walls have ears, and speaking will incur risks. If he didn't speak, others would understand, so why bother?
Ẁеb̂n̊ о̃ v̊ẽ l̄ Ë n ŭm̆а̊
“Okay, I understand.” After getting the information, Kalin left.
It seemed the investigation into the assassins had hit a snag. Their whereabouts seemed to be well hidden, indicating they were well-prepared.

Clearly, his actions after returning to the capital seemed a bit too high-profile.
He could only hope it wasn't what he thought.
Would the Church of Radiance do this? Honestly, Winnie didn't think so, but he couldn't rule it out.
Even if these assassins were dispatched by them, their purpose was definitely not to kill him, but more likely for some other objective.
Wёb̆n о v е l̈ Е́ n̊ūmä
Otherwise, for an organization with such far-reaching influence as the Church of Radiance, to only send out such childish assassinations would be too ridiculous.
So, who did this? And what was the purpose?
Well, thinking about these things was too much of a brain drain, and Winnie really couldn't figure it out.
Time passed quickly, and the following summer vacation days were rather ordinary.

Mirexia increased the number of patrol guards near Winnie's home to prevent him from being assassinated again. Winnie often saw guards passing by his house.
In addition, for some reason, his reputation among the nobles in the capital has improved slightly. At least no one would bother him or give him dirty looks for no reason.

Then, Winnie soon felt that returning home for the holidays was no different from being at the academy. It even felt less safe at home than at the academy. At least at Carillian Academy, students will never encounter assassinations.
Shikondell still lives with him, his roommate, still cooking for him daily and doing housework. Mirexia was still very busy, still working overtime, and was rarely seen. She would only occasionally send Kalin to convey greetings, deliver some fruits and snacks from the palace, and ask if he had any troubles.
When he was at the academy, Winnie was at least a member of the student council and had some time to meet Mirexia. After returning home, he couldn't see Mirexia at all.
Honestly, living like this was also boring. The most important thing was that without working in the student council, his wallet couldn't support him.
Was this kind of life too leisurely?
But it seemed like it was like this at the academy too?

Was it? It didn't seem so.
When he was at the academy, that hateful little silver-haired, pocket-sized bread would always find a way to annoy him and see him break down. But now...
Winnie had to admit that that little pocket-sized bread, to some extent, made his life less dull and boring. It was like adding a lot of pepper to soup. Regardless of whether the soup tasted good or not, it will definitely make you remember its flavor.
At least he wouldn't be angry by that little bread during the holidays.
Alas, in the end, it was really because he was too idle.
He longed for the holidays when the academy started, and longed for the academy to start when he was on vacation. People are always dissatisfied.
W̊е̊b̆ñ о ṽel Е.nu m а
Honestly, the quality of life at home really couldn't compare to the academy.
The food was far inferior, the environment was far inferior, and he didn't have a large group of card-playing friends. No wonder he felt so bored.

Moreover, he believed the most important reason was indeed that he wasn't rich enough!
Look at it this way, would the noble children feel bored when they went home? Of course not. They have money and can play everywhere, do anything. He couldn't.
At this thought, Winnie lay on the sofa again, imagining what he would do after graduation when he had money.
Days passed one by one, and in the blink of an eye, the long holiday ended.

The students from the capital embarked on their journey back to the academy.
The unicorn carriage from Carillian Academy came to pick them up. However, not many people were surprised this time. After riding it so many times, they didn't find it too strange.
After a few days of travel, the students successfully arrived at Carillian Academy.
“Winnie, we've arrived,” Shikondell said.

“Ah!” Winnie stretched lazily from the carriage, picked up his luggage, and staggered down with Shikondell.
Returning to the academy, the sunlight was a bit dazzling.
Ӗn̂ǔm а̄ . і̌d
As soon as they arrived at the academy, Mirexia had to rush off to deal with academy matters, and she hurriedly parted ways with Winnie. It seemed that when calculating, the time he had the most contact with Mirexia was actually at the academy, or on the carriage?
Winnie suddenly thought of something.
No wonder the original screenwriter set Mirexia as the original wife.
With this workaholic style, she has never seen idle. After all, Mirexia's sense of responsibility was too strong, not allowing her to be idle.
This gave Aesphyra many opportunities in the original work.
What opportunities? Of course, opportunities to flirt.

When Aesphyra was flirting with Shikondell, the legitimate wife Mirexia was working overtime.
When Aesphyra was flirting with Milian, the legitimate wife Mirexia was still working overtime.
When Aesphyra was flirting with Isatia, the legitimate wife Mirexia was still working overtime.
Could there be a female protagonist more suitable as the legitimate wife of a “harem” type game than Mirexia?
Silently helping the protagonist Aesphyra, but unable to stop Aesphyra from flirting with various girls due to work, resulting in her own head getting greener and greener hats without realizing it, and even often becoming Aesphyra's unwitting assistant.
The original screenwriter was also persecuting Mirexia, really too wicked.

After moving all his luggage back to the dormitory, Winnie wiped the sweat from his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking at the slightly dusty living room, a sense of stability arose in his heart.

Perhaps it was because this was the starting point from which he had completely overcome his predicament, so he had a special emotional attachment to this place.
This was already the second semester of the first year. Speaking of which, what happened in the second semester?
Winnie pondered for a moment. Although recalling was futile, as he understood the plot even less in the later stages.
However, he did remember that in the original work, Winnie seemed to have caused a major incident in the second semester or the first semester of the second year, overturning Carillian Academy along with Aesphyra.
