[Virtue +100].

[Current Virtue: 4224].

Seeing Virtue go up, he didn’t even need to think to know who had contributed it.

Although, from Vinny’s perspective, it was entirely possible that both procs were from Mirexia. Of course, it was also possible that the +100 was from Aesphyra, since after all, when she saw the person she wanted to scoop into her Crystal Palace being carried in someone else’s arms, she was definitely not going to be in a good mood.

As for the +200, that could only be Mirexia’s. Rank-one big sis was still going strong.

“You go inform the Academy that the two students who were trapped in Marsmo’s Deeply Buried Secret Realm have now come out of the Deeply Buried Secret Realm!”

When he saw that the two people emerging from the Secret Realm were precisely the missing Vinny and Isatia, the mentor in charge of overseeing the on-site rescue work snapped out of his brief daze and hurriedly had his subordinates go notify the Academy.

“You two, are you all right??”

The mentor in charge stepped forward to ask the two of them, and had Carillian Academy’s top medical team behind him give the two a round of emergency-style preliminary examinations.

“I’m basically fine,” Isatia said, glancing at Vinny in her arms, who still seemed to be in a sleepwalking state. “But it’s still better to have me checked, just in case.”

“Then, Classmate Isatia, ahem, there’s no need for you to keep holding this blue-haired male student. Put him down and let him stand, otherwise it’ll be inconvenient for us to examine him,” a priest affiliated with Carillian Academy coughed lightly. Seeing that Isatia had no intention of letting go, he couldn’t help speaking up.

“Mm.”

At his words, Isatia inclined her head, then very gently handed Vinny over to a priest beside her.

“Easy there, classmate. Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?”

The priest carefully took Vinny and asked.

“Uncomfortable? I don’t really feel that way. It’s just…”

Vinny pressed his lips together, then quietly glanced in a certain direction.

Mm. She was walking over.

“Aiya aiya~ Classmate Vinny is as blessed and hard to kill as ever. I just knew Classmate Vinny would definitely be fine.”

Aesphyra sauntered over with unhurried steps, the corners of her mouth hooked in a smile whose meaning was unclear. She deliberately paused on the word “blessed,” drawing out her tone, and, in passing, glanced at Isatia standing beside them.

“So I’m supposed to say, thank you for your faith?”

Vinny knew perfectly well that Aesphyra’s words were laced with teasing and mockery, and he was more or less a little guilty over it.

After all, in the original plot, it should have been Aesphyra and Isatia who, for some reason, entered Marsmo’s Deeply Buried Secret Realm, and only then did a whole series of relationships and connections come about, only then did Aesphyra get to start running Isatia’s route. And in the end, he had taken Aesphyra’s place in this incident, and he was the one who had gone through a whole series of events with Isatia.

Fine, even if this Aesphyra and the Aesphyra in the original book weren’t even the same person anymore, now that Vinny had more or less figured out the original plot line, he still felt an inexplicable sense of guilt.

Crap, did I just accidentally steal all of the original Aesphyra’s screen time and harem share??

Mirexia’s was still all right; after all, Vinny had known Mirexia for a long time, while Aesphyra was the one who’d come in later. As for the other heroines…

Anyway, Vinny could more or less guess what Aesphyra was thinking at this very moment.

This white-haired, stinky green-eyed girl was probably so jealous that her heart itched, wondering why she wasn’t the one who entered the Secret Realm with Isatia and went through a whole series of events. Now that she was seeing him and Isatia come out of the Deeply Buried Secret Realm together, seeing how they interacted, her eyes probably wanted to glow green, she just wasn’t showing it on her face.

“Vinny, you and Classmate Isatia… you’re both all right?”

Seeing Aesphyra walk up, Mirexia also slowly came forward. Even though her feelings were complicated right now, Vinny’s personal safety was still the most important thing, so first she confirmed Vinny’s current condition.

“Don’t worry, thanks to Classmate Isatia, I’m fine.”

“President Mirexia, you can set your mind at ease. This young classmate shouldn’t have any major problems. He doesn’t seem to be in life-threatening condition, either. Just some scrapes, plus exhaustion and mana depletion.”

After a rough examination, the priest gave his conclusion.

Mm. He had probably chalked the condition of Vinny’s sealed Spirit Soul up to mana exhaustion. After all, this was only a rough examination, just checking whether his body currently had any major issues. It wasn’t detailed.

“Come to think of it, Mirexia, you came too.”

Remembering how Mirexia had seen Isatia carrying him just now, Vinny felt a bit embarrassed for some reason and asked.

“Can’t I come?” Mirexia fell silent for a moment.

“Uhh, no, no, I never said that. I just meant, you’re usually really busy,” Vinny hurried to say.

“You were trapped in the Deeply Buried Secret Realm. What was I supposed to be busy with? What else could be more important?”

Mirexia lightly pressed her glossy lips together. As her lips moved, the twin ponytails behind her, golden like molten gold, swayed ever so slightly.

“I seem to have made you worry again. Sorry.”

Of course Vinny could feel the worry and urgency in her words, and warmth rose in his heart.

Yeah. In this world, she was probably the only childhood friend who knew him this well and cared about him this much.

Beside them, Isatia, who was also being examined by a nun, watched this scene. Watching the interaction between Vinny and Mirexia, she remained silent, but her noble violet eyes held a strange look.

She naturally knew Mirexia. She had known her even before coming to Carillian Academy. She still remembered that their first meeting had been at a banquet during an inter-kingdom exchange, but they hadn’t exchanged many words. On top of that, they weren’t in the same year, so they’d had even fewer chances to interact. You could say they only barely knew each other.

If she remembered correctly, Vinny and Mirexia were childhood friends. On top of that, rumors in Camella’s royal capital said that Vinny was a dissolute wastrel who relied on his identity as a descendant of Facilis to bully men and women alike. Naturally, someone like that would also exploit his childhood-friend relationship with Mirexia to harass her persistently, to the point that she was utterly fed up, and she was always being criticized because of him.

Isatia had never been one to blindly believe rumors, but she had still felt that there might be some tiny grain of truth in them, even if most of it was probably exaggeration. To know the truth, she had to see with her own eyes and judge with her own mind. Only that was truly reliable.

Yet now, what Isatia had not expected was that the rumors about Vinny in Camella’s royal capital were entirely false, without a shred of truth, not reliable in the slightest—less reliable than a ◈ Nоvеlіgһт ◈ (Continue reading) trashy roadside “unofficial history” pamphlet.

After having deep contact with Vinny as a person, and even learning that absolutely unshareable secret of his, Isatia couldn’t help wondering whether the Vinny in the rumors of Camella’s royal capital and the Vinny she knew were even the same person, especially when she recalled the holy angel who had sung the hymn for her inside the Secret Realm.

Since those rumors were false, then many of the things rumored about Vinny and Mirexia should also be false.

For instance, the claim that Vinny kept pestering Mirexia and drove her to exasperation was definitely false.

Isatia simply couldn’t imagine how someone with Vinny’s rather passive personality as a boy could possibly be that proactive in harassing a girl. Secondly, just looking at their relationship now was enough to tell that this was absolutely a slander.

As a girl herself, Isatia could see at a glance whether Mirexia was fed up with Vinny, whether she held a negative attitude or a positive one toward him.

Just from the interaction the two of them had just now, Isatia knew that Mirexia’s feelings toward Vinny were definitely not negative. Girls who dislike a boy would never be this proactive, never worry this much, and certainly wouldn’t have their emotions stirred up because of him.

No matter how you looked at it, the relationship between these two was not ordinary.

[Virtue +30].

[Current Virtue: 4254].

“……”

Isatia wasn’t the only one watching the interaction between Vinny and Mirexia. Aesphyra, standing beside them, was watching as well. The corners of her mouth were faintly curved, and she maintained an elegant posture. As for whether she was laughing on the inside, and what exactly she was thinking, perhaps only she herself knew.

[Virtue +50].

[Current Virtue: 4304].

Hm??

Hadn’t Virtue already gone up just now? Why was it still going up??

Vinny’s first thought was Mirexia. He figured it was probably another explosion from Mirexia.

After all, Virtue didn’t display a source, only a number. Based on his long experience, Mirexia’s passive was such that she could explode Virtue just by standing there doing nothing, so the odds that this was Mirexia’s proc were extremely high.

After that, the mentors handled the wrap-up work, and Vinny and Isatia went to the Academy’s sanatorium to undergo a comprehensive examination.

After checking, they found that neither of them had any major problems. However, the priests at the sanatorium were puzzled as to why Vinny’s mana showed no signs of recovery at all.

Well, that was only natural. When even his Spirit Soul had been temporarily sealed, there was no way he could sense mana, much less recover it. That was impossible.

But Vinny didn’t say anything about that. He knew his own condition and his own [Saint’s Favor]. There was no need to tell anyone else. As long as he waited for a while, he would recover sooner or later.

Still, he really was unlucky this term. Ever since the semester started, nothing good had happened to him. First, preparing “Angel’s Kiss” for Aesphyra had drained him into anemia, and then helping Isatia construct Marsmo’s royal palace inside [Perennial Imperial Diadem], and using a hymn to temporarily slow the buildings’ ongoing corrosion, had resulted in his own [Saint’s Favor] backlashing and sealing his [Spirit Soul].

The entire time, he’d been playing benefactor to all these destined heroines, hadn’t he??

Well, he had gotten greedy, after all. He’d gone after Virtue and reached out to the destined heroines, so it was only natural he’d get entangled in their karmic threads and have his luck siphoned away by them.

Because of gender issues, Vinny and Isatia were recuperating separately. The examination and treatment portions were separate as well. During the entire process, Mirexia stayed with him, even though Vinny repeatedly insisted that he was fine and told her to go do whatever she needed to do, to go back to work. Mirexia still refused to go. Only after she got the examination results and confirmed that Vinny truly hadn’t been left with any sequelae and hadn’t suffered many injuries did she finally relax.

Mm. When he’d been fighting the King of Marsmo, Vinny had actually taken a lot of damage, and he himself had been pushed to the extreme. But because he’d turned into Vanessa, his state had been refreshed, and when Vanessa fought Kantesius, the worst she’d suffered was exhaustion. As a result, after the whole trip, he now looked like he’d only been exhausted and drained of mana, and aside from that, hadn’t suffered many injuries.

“Vinny, everything about you is basically normal, but the priest said your mana is showing an abnormal trend. He said your mana, for some reason, can’t seem to recover.”

Looking at Vinny’s report, Mirexia asked.

Once she no longer needed to worry about Vinny’s survival, Mirexia turned her attention to the other issues he faced.

“That… you really don’t need to worry about it. It’ll fix itself.”

Vinny waved his hand, telling Mirexia not to worry about this.

“……”

Mirexia said nothing. She just stared at Vinny in silence, giving him immense psychological pressure without a word.

She didn’t state it outright, but it felt as though if Vinny didn’t let her know today, she would simply stay here and never leave.

“This problem is really nothing for you to worry about, okay? It’s related to… that. Mm, Mirexia, you know what I mean, right?”

Lying on the bed, Vinny was helpless. Even though the two of them were in a private room, he still deliberately lowered his voice to guard against walls that might have ears, and he spoke in code.

Mirexia was very smart, so of course she understood what Vinny meant. The hands she had been clenching slowly relaxed.

Yes, she and Vinny were childhood friends. Who could be closer than the two of them?

For example, Vinny’s secret—she was the only person in this world who knew it. No one else would ever know it, no matter what. And only when facing her could Vinny truly lower his guard and talk about these things, because Vinny had an extremely high level of trust in her—something no one else possessed.

When she thought of this, Mirexia felt her heart lighten for some reason.

“President Mirexia’s relationship with Classmate Vinny is just as good as ever, I see.”

At that moment, a voice came from behind Mirexia, at the doorway of the room.

Mm. Familiar tone, familiar voice. Vinny didn’t even need to look to know who had come. He immediately rolled his eyes in impatience at the figure in the doorway and asked:

“Why are you here again??”

“Classmate Vinny, that’s a strange thing to say. Can’t I come visit a friend?”

Aesphyra stepped into the room, nylon-stockinged legs in motion, smiling.

Mm. No matter how many times he saw it, he still felt that if it weren’t for her hardware being a bit lacking in certain respects, Jiu Lixue would have to settle for runner-up in a succubus imitation contest.

“You coming is whatever, I just feel like this really isn’t where you should be right now. You should be in Isatia’s room.” Vinny glanced at Aesphyra and spoke.

Isatia was injured. Given Aesphyra’s temperament, wasn’t this the perfect chance for her to shower Isatia with attention? How did she have the free time to come over here and bicker with him??
