Chapter 411 : Let Me Get Closer To You, So You Can See Me Clearly.

~7 min read 1,218 words

"Zervanie... are you okay?"

Zervanie hid behind Felyn, peeking her head out from over his shoulder, her watery eyes not daring to look at Adelina.

"Felyn... Adelina... she's bullying me..."

"Who told you to say those kinds of things?"

Felyn had a smiling Adelina in front of him and a trembling Zervanie behind him.

What a headache.

If this continued, Zervanie felt she would really be dealt with harshly by Adelina.

"Adelina, shall we go cook some late-night snacks together?"

Hearing Felyn's invitation, the look in Adelina's eyes slowly softened.

"Miss Zervanie, you can't say those things next time."

Zervanie, hiding behind Felyn, stuck her tongue out at Adelina, clearly not having learned her lesson.

However, Adelina obviously didn't care at the moment. Being able to make a late-night snack with Felyn was something to look forward to.

But it would be even better without the troublesome young lady, Zervanie.

The small kitchen was crowded with three people.

"Zervanie, you can't even help, what are you doing in here?"

Zervanie waved the handcuffs in her hand; the princess's parting gift was still in effect.

However, this was no longer Zervanie's home ground.

This was Adelina and Felyn's home ground.

Ever since Adelina's confession, whenever Felyn provided his services to her under the contract, they had basically cooked together.

With their tacit understanding, whatever Felyn, who was inconvenienced by the handcuffs, needed to do, Adelina could understand with just a single glance.

This tacit cooperation made Zervanie, who was behind them, a little jealous, but there was nothing she could do.

If Zervanie were to lend a hand, everyone would probably pass out tonight.

But... that didn't seem so bad either?

"Felyn, I'll help you."

The young ladies were all a bit hungry tonight.

There was a banquet at the school celebration.

But none of them had a chance to eat.

They were either fighting with other girls or busy chasing after Felyn, with no time to eat at all.

Tonight's developments had deviated slightly from Adelina's plan.

She had originally intended to appear with Felyn in front of her uncles, in front of the Claude family, to introduce Felyn to everyone in advance.

But the current development was also an unexpected delight.

Adelina tied her rose-tea colored long hair into a neat ponytail and wore an apron around her waist.

"Felyn, there isn't much time left before the Royal Capital's early admission exam." She chopped vegetables seriously, a strand of hair falling to the side, half-covering her face. "The tutoring I mentioned to you... how have you considered it?"

Felyn tucked the strand of hair behind Adelina's ear for her. This somewhat ambiguous action between the two made Zervanie pout once again.

"Won't it be a bother for you? I'm worried that after tutoring me, your own exams will be delayed."

He was taking the Royal Capital's early admission exam, while Adelina was going through the normal route, wanting to get first place among everyone.

"No, no." Seeing that Felyn was starting to relent, she quickly said, "The process of teaching you is also a form of studying. And... and I can also prepare for my own exams while I'm at your house."

Zervanie rested her hand on her arm, feeling that Adelina's words were getting bolder and bolder.

There were still several weeks until the Royal Capital exam.

If she planned to live here the whole time, wouldn't Felyn's... soul be completely taken away by Adelina?

"Felyn, I can actually help you with tutoring too," she said quickly.

"Miss Zervanie, you should focus on your career. If your fans find out you're always running over here, it will cause trouble for Felyn."

The two young ladies started bickering again.

Felyn's thoughts slowly drifted from his surroundings to the future.

The Royal Capital's early admission exam was one thing.

The post-exam divine affinity test was another.

The Royal Capital district would divide schools and grades based on the type of god awakened through the divine revelation and the degree of divine affinity.

In this world, not every god was a completely different existence. On the contrary, the connections between gods were very close, and the principles of some divine arts were even universal.

But Felyn's Herlomir faith, judging from the fact that it was jointly suppressed by all gods, probably meant Herlomir was not very close to any of them.

So if he really got into an academy in the Royal Capital district, which school would he be assigned to?

Plus, his body was now tainted with Dorothy's demonic power; it wasn't certain if he would be arrested as a demon.

Felyn's gaze slowly focused on one spot, falling on the girl with dark green eyes not far away.

Daiyi.

If anyone could answer his questions, it would surely be Daiyi.

Daiyi seemed to have noticed Felyn's gaze. Her eyes shifted unnaturally, and finally, under Felyn's stare, she put down the pillow and slowly walked towards him.

Daiyi hadn't changed her clothes yet; she was still in that evening gown.

No matter if she was at home or anywhere else, she never looked out of place in an evening gown.

A slender figure, a face as cool and detached as a god's, and those eyes that held all the secrets of the world.

She was born to wear gowns.

"As expected, you still like me a little more, don't you?" Daiyi bypassed the gazes of Zervanie and Adelina, came to Felyn's side, and very naturally placed her hand on his waist.

"Daiyi, don't say things like that at a time like this."

Felyn gritted his teeth and said in a low voice. Luckily, Daiyi's voice wasn't loud, so Zervanie and Adelina didn't hear clearly.

"Hmm? Weren't you just peeking at me?"

Daiyi's hair rested on Felyn's shoulder as she extended an invitation to him.

Her side profile was cast in a perfect shadow by the spotlight above.

"You saw?" Felyn smiled, a little embarrassed.

"Mhm." Daiyi nodded, moving a little closer to Felyn.

"From that far, you can't see clearly. So didn't I come over? Now you can take a good look at me."

The dark green eyes seemed to be seeking an answer in Felyn's eyes, staring at him intently.

Felyn could feel that tonight's Daiyi seemed a little different.

But he couldn't quite put his finger on what was different.

He just felt that the ambiguous and teasing words she said, which were the same as before, seemed to be tinged with something else.

Daiyi tidied her hair with her hand, then looked at the guards outside the window.

The guards with purple royal capes on their left shoulders were still surrounding Felyn's house, not having left.

The appearance of so many Royal Guards in the Mist Street district made the surrounding neighbors not even dare to turn on their lights.

"Felyn, look outside."

Following the direction Daiyi pointed, Felyn saw a beautiful girl with ice-blue hair riding a horse, aimlessly wandering the surrounding streets.

"That's the Third Princess, Her Highness Lecia Sivisius. She's Dorothy's biological older sister."

She gently nudged Felyn with her elbow, "Why do you think she's personally leading the team here today?"

Felyn slowly turned his head, "You're not going to tell me she's here for me, are you?"
