Adrian was already feeling a chill on the back of his neck. He thought for a moment and moved closer to Vili, almost burying himself in the other's arms.

"I feel so cold... the temperature in the venue seems a bit low."

Vili was a little unaccustomed to the sudden closeness, but before he could push Adrian away, the latter straightened up on his own.

"I'm sorry," he said gently. "I think I was a little rude."

"It's just that my health has never been very good, so I'm particularly sensitive to changes in temperature."

He frowned, and his face seemed to turn pale in an instant.

888 was so shocked that he couldn't speak.

That's not how it was in the original work!

Adrian was able to stand out among many light mages and become the Holy Son because he was so perfect that he had almost no flaws!

He was impeccable in terms of ability, appearance, and personality, and was the popular choice for pope. In the original work, he was even called "the greatest pope since the founding of the nation" at the end.

Moreover, the properties of light magic mean that he will hardly suffer from illness, let alone just have his temperature lowered!

Although I knew from the start that having a host like Vili meant the mission was almost impossible to succeed, but—

Why are even the supporting characters acting strangely?

"Vili?"

The person who broke the silence spoke with a hint of surprise and uncertainty. Before anyone else could react, 888 looked over with hope.

It's the voice of the main character, Aiden!

As the protagonist, he should be able to salvage the distorted plot, right?

Aiden's voice was like hot oil poured into a pot, startling everyone in the hall.

"Willie? Is it the Willie I'm thinking of?"

"Could it be the eldest son of the Russell family? But I heard he's quite mediocre in both appearance and magical talent?"

"That's not the point... The point is, isn't he Princess Aiden's fiancé?"

Then, as if Moses had parted the sea, the crowd spontaneously parted to form a path, and at the end of the path was Aiden, who was walking briskly towards them.

Two days after traveling through time, Willie finally saw the true face of her "fiancé".

Um……

It has eyes and a nose.

The next second, he turned his gaze to the person next to Aiden, the one he was most concerned about—

The protagonist is Hill.

When Aiden came over earlier, he followed closely behind him, carefully tugging at the hem of the person in front of him, like a cute and pitiful little animal.

Without even looking at the gazes of those around him, Vili knew that some people had already developed feelings of pity for the boy.

However, to him, standing so upright made him look like he was bullying the other person.

Before he could even speak, Aiden started criticizing him.

He seemed to only then notice Adrian beside Vili, and his eyes widened.

“Villie, as the future Queen of the Royal Family, you should pay attention to etiquette.”

"..."

ah?

Vili turned to look at Adrian, who was still feigning weakness but hadn't made any physical contact with him, and then glanced at Hill, who had evolved from grabbing his clothes to hugging his arm.

Who exactly lacked discretion?

Before he could speak, Adrian spoke first.

"Your Highness Aiden, it's all my fault. I don't know why, but I suddenly felt dizzy just now."

"Fortunately, Willie is kind-hearted, intelligent and perceptive. He noticed my discomfort immediately and caught me, which prevented me from embarrassing myself in public."

Those watching nearby recalled the scene just now, and it seemed that... Adrian really only leaned on Vili for a few seconds, right?

Now let's look at His Highness's side...

Hill, under the gaze of everyone, blushed instantly and released his arm as if it were burning hot.

"I...I...I'm just new to this place and a little scared, so I subconsciously relied on Your Highness."

His clear blue eyes darted around nervously before finally settling on Vili.

He never imagined that Aiden would have such a... beautiful fiancé.

Just looking at the other person makes my eyes feel like they're being burned.

Tears welled in her eyelashes, and Hill's voice trembled with sobs.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, please forgive me."

“A young master like you, born into nobility and accustomed to the world, may not be able to understand how I feel… but you certainly won’t blame me for it, right?”

Vili raised an eyebrow, but before he could speak, the Holy Son beside him stepped forward first.

As he moved, everyone's eyes involuntarily turned to look at him.

Just as Adrian was about to speak, he suddenly clutched his forehead as if in great discomfort, and then fell backward without hesitation.

Vili: ?

The others were some distance away from them, and only Willy was closest behind him. He instinctively reached out and caught Willy.

...It's so heavy.

Fortunately, Vili didn't have to hold him up for long; Adrian stood up on his own, just like when he first entered the venue.

Thank you.

He first turned and smiled at Willy, then spoke apologetically:

"I don't know what's wrong with me today... I'm never usually this sick."

He glanced around casually, his voice soft yet clear.

"Could it be that some kind of evil spirit has appeared in this place today?"

As he spoke, his gaze fell on Hill, and then he immediately snapped to attention and covered his mouth with his finger.

"I'm so sorry... that's not what I meant, please forgive me."
