Chapter 527 : Felyn, I Really Do Still Like You.

Silvana's Over-class magic, "Crimson Abyss Barrier," could shield everything.

The dark red fog carrying her magic power could not only block light and sound but could even block functional sigils.

The magic power Silvana left on Viloti was her transfer magic marker.

The moment Viloti was alone, Silvana immediately teleported to her side and cast "Crimson Abyss Barrier," enveloping the entire Varil Village.

And at the center of the "Crimson Abyss Barrier," the magic power was much thinner. Viloti was therefore able to see Silvana's figure.

"Miss Viloti, aren't we friends? Greeting me like this is a bit impolite, isn't it?"

Silvana patted the dust off her clothes and ran a hand through her hair.

The moment she appeared, Viloti had seized the opportunity when she was not yet ready and directly released "Final Hymn," attempting to interrupt Silvana's magic casting.

But Viloti failed.

The other party was the daughter of the Demon Lord. No matter how much of a genius Viloti was, she was still just a new student who had been enrolled in the Royal Capital District for only a month, and she was only using a second-tier divine art.

"Why aren't you talking?" Silvana took two steps forward under Viloti's wary gaze. "Oh right, I forgot, you don't like to talk much. It's a good thing I don't overthink things, otherwise I'd be worried you hate me, and that's why you're not talking to me."

Silvana seemed to have the leisure to chat with Viloti, which made Viloti feel a little strange.

This was a village guarded by the Fifth Knight Order, Adelina's guard corps, and Eitani's group. Why was Silvana so... leisurely?

"I heard everything just now. You had a fight with Felyn, didn't you? And it was over the contract matter, how outrageous." Silvana simply leaned against a tree trunk, idly picking at her nails.

"To actually deceive our lovely Miss Viloti, even I can't bear to watch anymore. Our Miss Viloti clearly loves Felyn so much, but in the end, that man deceived you from beginning to end. Should I kill him before I kill you?"

"You are not allowed to lay a hand on Felyn."

A smile tugged at the corner of Silvana's mouth. This seemed to be the answer she wanted to hear.

"Oh? Miss Viloti, are you confused? He deceived you, you know."

"I know."

Viloti didn't know what Silvana was up to, but she also used this opportunity to stall for time.

Even if she couldn't be saved, at least Eitani and the others could rush over and finish Silvana off.

"In the past at Saint Andros Academy, most of my memories with Felyn were fake."

"His liking for me was fake, his waiting for me in the heavy rain was fake, his waiting until late at night to bring me food was also fake."

Viloti turned her head slightly to look at the thick fog beside her, as if Felyn would pierce through it in the next second and appear before her.

"But... but I know that the Felyn of that time was not fake. The Felyn of that time was no different from the Felyn of now. He was very good to me."

She tightly gripped her skirt, her amber eyes tinged with dark red, and the tip of her nose began to turn red.

What if it was real, what if it was fake.

Felyn was still that Felyn.

"And during that time, I wasn't good to Felyn. I never said a single 'thank you' to him, never looked him in the eye once."

"If I had the chance, I would also rather forget that time and start over."

While Viloti's head was down, Silvana quietly began to activate magic in her hand.

"Miss Viloti, after hearing about the contract, will you still like Felyn?" Silvana asked casually, leaning against the tree.

"I do."

Viloti's skirt and long pink hair fluttered together in the wind. This belated confession could not penetrate the thick fog, could not reach Felyn's side.

"I like it when he looks at me gently."

"I like being by his side, sticking to his side."

"I like the way he works during the contract. Even when it's just a job, he's so serious. Even when I was so cold, he never complained, and he was even willing to spend time with me after the contract ended."

"I like shopping with him, I like going to and from school with him, I like spending every second of my life with him."

"I like Felyn."

Two streams of hot tears gushed from her eyes.

Viloti's shoulders began to tremble uncontrollably. She lowered her head, watching her tears wet the cracked earth of Varil Village.

She wasn't crying because of excitement; she was crying because of regret.

Clearly... clearly I like Felyn.

Clearly I still like Felyn, why did I say I wanted to be alone just now, why did I make Felyn worry just now.

Once again, I failed to understand my own heart. Once again, I fell into chaos. Once again, I missed Felyn.

From the promotion banquet at the beginning, to asking Head Teacher Sophia what "like" was, to asking Felyn at the school festival if he would still be with her in the future.

I thought I clearly knew my feelings for Felyn, but why... why this time did I still... still fail to tell him that I didn't care at all the moment he mentioned the contract.

I don't care about your past, because I hope even more that I am in your future.

But, but now...

Viloti wiped her tears with her wrist.

The dark red magic power was cold. Viloti wrapped her arms around her chest, trying to resist the chill emanating from Silvana.

"Felyn... I confessed to you..." Viloti whispered to the surrounding dark red magic, as if Felyn were there.

"Adelina has confessed to you, right? Zervanie too. I was clearly the first person to have contact with you, but in the end... in the end, I was even after them."

Viloti's legs felt a little weak, and her long hair kept slapping against her cheeks. Her tears bloomed into the most brilliant flowers in the air, drifting into the distance with the wind and her confession, drifting towards Felyn.

"Felyn... I like you... can you hear me?"

"I'm sorry, Felyn. You didn't want me to confess before, but I-I still said it..."

"Because, because if I don't say it now... then... then..."

There would be no more chances.

The girl clenched her hands tightly. For a moment, countless past memories and emotions flooded her heart, dispelling the cold from her body.

Herself waiting for Felyn to open the door in the heavy rain, herself letting Felyn rest his head on her lap in Homhote, herself playing with Heromir with him in his house, herself choosing a swimsuit with him in the fitting room in the Royal Capital District, herself kissing Felyn on the divine art practice field.

Along the way, so many things had happened between her and Felyn. She had accompanied Felyn and witnessed so many things.

I kissed Felyn. At least... at least there are no regrets, right?

The only regret was not being able to hear Felyn's answer.

As expected, I still want to say it to Felyn's face...

"How touching, Miss Viloti."

Silvana clapped her hands, finally walking out from under the tree.

She held out her palm. In the yellow light cluster in her palm was the scene of Viloti's confession just now.

"Tell me, if Felyn were holding your corpse while I played this scene for him, what kind of expression would he have? Would he go mad? Or break down? Or... or would he join you in death?"

Viloti suddenly looked up, her eyes wide as she stared at Silvana.

She gritted her teeth, and the patterns of divine art appeared in her hands once again. She was preparing to release her third divine art of the day.

She couldn't imagine that scene, her hands trembling uncontrollably.

"Angry? Miss Viloti? But your divine art is useless against me. The more miserably you struggle now, the more heartbroken Felyn will be when he sees it. Why not just obediently wait for him to come and save you?"

Silvana was very satisfied with Viloti's current expression. She sneered, "However, Felyn won't be able to come. No one can see through my 'Crimson Abyss Barrier,' not even Eitani."

Viloti shook her head and reached up to tie her hair into a high ponytail.

"I've always been behind Felyn. I've always been protected by Felyn."

"At least in the end, I also want to prove to Felyn that I am not the old Viloti."

"I am not the Viloti who would remain silent when slandered."

Viloti took a deep breath. The crimson divine art patterns appeared in front of her, reflecting in her resolute amber eyes.

She suddenly remembered what Felyn had said to Isabella when he was with her.

The girl finally smiled, her lips holding tears, holding memories of Felyn.

"I am not to be trifled with!"
