Chapter 395 : Happy Graduation

The painting process didn't take long.

The divinely empowered brush was able to reproduce the scene on paper with extreme speed.

The divine art of the Eternal Scroll Divine Sect members could permanently preserve the moment of painting in the world.

It wasn't just the image; the temperature, humidity, the scent in the air, the emotions in one's heart—every sensation could be preserved on the paper.

Just by looking at the painting, one could briefly return to that time.

Return to that happy moment when the painting was made.

"Alright, it's finished."

The painter nodded with satisfaction, eagerly bringing the painting before the young ladies.

None of the young ladies spoke; they just gazed at themselves in the painting... and Felyn.

Felyn also saw the painting. The appearance, expression, and clothing details of everyone in the picture were rendered to perfection.

"I will give each of you a copy. The addresses are the ones on the list, correct?"

"Yes."

When they became partners, everyone had left their address on the paper.

Besides the painting, there would also be Seraphina's commemorative rings.

It was just uncertain whether that tiny ring could fit everyone's name.

Because of this painting, the young ladies were all immersed in happiness, and the atmosphere had relaxed considerably.

But when the painter packed up her things and left, Felyn could feel the atmosphere begin to change, bit by bit.

Let the battle begin!

"Brother Felyn, you don't have any more excuses now, do you?"

"None."

Felyn really couldn't think of any other way to delay.

"Then, come with me."

Just as Dorothy's hand grabbed Felyn's wrist, several other hands landed on hers.

"Your Highness, it would be very inconvenient for you to take Felyn back. There's no one at my house, so I'll take Felyn back." Adelina gripped both their wrists tightly, looking at Dorothy with a smile.

Viloti also wanted to join the battlefield, but after seeing a figure approaching in the distance, she restrained herself and did not join the fight.

"Father."

The person who had arrived was Silafiel.

"You're all here. Are you having a gathering?" Silafiel looked at the young ladies with a chuckle, his gaze skipping over Felyn.

"Lord Silafiel, we were just having our portraits painted here." In front of an outsider, Dorothy reverted to her gentle and kind princess persona, holding the hem of her skirt and curtsying to Silafiel.

"Oh, I see. Are you finished? I have something to discuss with student Felyn."

Felyn never would have expected that the first shot of tonight's great war would be fired by Silafiel.

Since Silafiel had spoken, the young ladies couldn't say anything more and could only hand Felyn over.

But the conversation between Silafiel and Felyn also bought the young ladies some time.

Time to arrange their plans.

Seeing Felyn and Silafiel walk a short distance away to talk, Zervanie was the first to bid farewell to the other young ladies.

"I'll be leaving first. I have another event to attend in a bit."

"Then I'll be leaving too. The student council still has matters to attend to."

"My father, the King, is also calling for me. I'm leaving as well."

No one mentioned Felyn.

But everyone was acting for Felyn's sake.

Viloti looked at Daiyi, then at Felyn, feeling a little lost about what to do.

Daiyi was good to her, but... but the thought of Felyn living with another girl made her heart feel sour.

The wind seemed to release Viloti's emotions for her, scattering the feelings in her heart into the night sky of Seiva.

If... if she couldn't stop Daiyi, then it should be okay for her to go to Felyn's house too, right?

Felyn might kick her out, might not let her in the door, but... but at least she would have tried.

Viloti didn't want to do nothing. Even if this idea had a high chance of failure, she still wanted to try.

Going to Felyn's house to prevent Felyn and Daiyi from being alone was obviously not a long-term solution. Viloti couldn't possibly lodge at Felyn's home like Daiyi.

But stopping them for one night was better than nothing.

Viloti took one last look at the backs of Felyn and her father, then walked toward the school gate.

It wasn't far from the school gate, and before long, Viloti stepped through the campus entrance.

With that, she had officially graduated.

She saw that there weren't many people at the school gate at the moment, as the school festival hadn't ended yet.

A girl with long, blue-gray hair stood at the school gate, wearing a black silk blindfold, seemingly waiting for someone.

Viloti paid her no mind. She planned to head toward Felyn's house before Felyn and the other young ladies noticed.

A sigil-car stopped by the roadside, the wind it brought lifting Viloti's long pink hair.

A pair of tall boots stepped out of the car first, followed by a head of short, black-and-red hair.

"Isn't this Miss Viloti? Long time no see. No, wait, we just saw each other."

Bernice greeted Viloti, waving at her.

Just now, Bernice had also appeared before the young ladies as a member of Felyn's harem.

However, the young ladies weren't familiar with her, so everyone's attention was focused on Daiyi, who was living with Felyn, and they had overlooked her.

"Miss Bernice, is something the matter?"

"Nothing, I just saw you walking out of the school alone. Are you going somewhere?"

Viloti looked at Bernice before her, using her hand to tuck away a strand of hair stuck to her lips. "I'm going to Felyn's house."

"Oh? Are you worried Miss Daiyi will do something with Felyn at home?"

"Mhm." Viloti nodded.

She didn't hide this fact. She was struggling internally with whether it was right to go to his house without Felyn's permission.

"You won't be able to get in like this." Bernice pointed to Daiyi's luggage in the car. "Miss Daiyi doesn't have to return to the Church of Truth now, so this luggage will naturally be taken back to Felyn's house by her."

Viloti understood Bernice's hint, but she didn't know why Bernice was helping her.

"Are you asking why I'm helping you? Seeing Miss Daiyi get jealous once in a while makes me quite happy too."

Bernice opened the car door, indicating that Viloti could get in.

"And..." She gazed at the other world inside the school gate, not saying the words in her heart.

And, this is also good for Felyn.

The flame in the pipe flickered. Felyn smelled a pleasant, faint scent of tobacco.

Silafiel before him said nothing, just smoked quietly.

"Felyn, an elder from the Church of Truth came to see me just now. He said his daughter likes you. Is she one of your clients?"

Felyn did not answer this question, as it involved a client's privacy.

"It's fine if you're not willing to say." Silafiel tapped his pipe, his gaze sweeping up and down Felyn. "I just wanted to ask you, how has Viloti been recently?"

This wasn't what Silafiel had originally wanted to ask. He had wanted to ask if Felyn was willing to marry into the Silafiel family.

But just now, seeing Adelina, Zervanie, and Dorothy all gathered around Felyn, the affection in their eyes completely unconcealable, Silafiel felt there was nothing left to discuss.

It wasn't just Adelina and Zervanie; even the Princess and the future Divine Child of the Church of Truth, Daiyi, liked Felyn.

What else was there to talk about?

It didn't matter how many people liked Felyn, nor what their status or position was.

Just go for it!

After hearing Felyn describe Viloti's recent situation, Silafiel nodded, his expression unchanging. "Is that so? Then I'm relieved. I have other matters to attend to, so I'll be on my way."

Felyn watched, bewildered, as Silafiel hurried past him. Although he was a little confused, he couldn't guess what he was planning to do.

When he returned to Daiyi's side, he found that of all the young ladies, only Daiyi remained.

"Huh? Where did they go?"

"They all said they had something to do and left first."

"Is that so?"

Felyn raised his eyebrows in disbelief. Just a moment ago, those young ladies were about to start a fight. Why did they all suddenly leave?

Could it be that Lady Luck had finally smiled upon me for once?!

"Then let's go home. Olivia is still waiting for me at home."

Felyn and Daiyi quickly reached the school gate.

As he was about to take the step to leave the school, he looked back at the campus, colored by the fireworks.

So many things had happened during his time at Saint Andros Academy.

Linda at the school gate, Teacher Sophia in her office.

Eating lunch with Viloti at the secret base, working with Adelina in the student council office, getting entangled with Zervanie at the sigil competition arena, and almost being kidnapped by Dorothy on the school festival organizing committee.

Thinking of the past, a faint smile unconsciously appeared on Felyn's lips.

My school life, at least at the end, wasn't half bad.

"Let's go, Daiyi. Let's go home."

Felyn took that step, completely leaving Saint Andros Academy behind.

He saw Bernice leaning against the car in the distance and walked toward her.

"Daiyi, please wait a moment."

Felyn and Daiyi turned around and saw a young woman standing at the school gate, wearing a black silk blindfold.

And that young woman also saw, on Felyn's hand... the residue of Eitani's demonic power.
