Il bowed his head respectfully, and murmured:
"So that's how it is..."
"We don't need to worry about Hill; he has his own Prince Charming to handle things for him."
"As for my reputation..." Willy shook his head indifferently, "Anyone with eyes can see that this has nothing to do with me, and the other blind people have no impact on me either."
"So you see, you don't need to hide this from me at all, I won't interfere at all."
He took the opportunity to educate the system.
Il lowered his head in shame.
"I understand. I will never act on my own again."
"Um."
Willie nodded, closed his eyes wearily, and couldn't help but yawn, tears wetting his thick eyelashes.
It's time for him to go to bed now.
But he wasn't finished asking questions yet.
"Is this where the story ends?"
Il flipped through the system records.
"Well... actually, the current situation is similar to that in the original story. Aiden will discover Hill's predicament and help him resolve it, and their relationship will continue to grow stronger as a result."
"Then……"
It cautiously glanced at Willy's expression.
"Then comes Adrian's storyline... He will meet Hill in the library, be very impressed with him, and then pursue him without hesitation..."
"But his actions actually spurred Aiden to confront his own feelings and he went to confess to Hill."
"then……"
"Can the pope of their world actually fall in love?"
Vili suddenly spoke.
Generally speaking, religious leaders like these are expected to dedicate their entire lives and minds to the divine, so they are absolutely not allowed to marry or have children.
Il shook his head honestly.
"This is because there is only one Holy Son in this world, Adrian, so if he doesn't become Pope..."
“…Alright.” Vili twitched his lips and made a gesture to interrupt the system.
"Are there really so few talented people in this world? And yet they all seem to be gathered around Hill, acting like they've all gone mad..."
He instantly felt that Adrian's only redeeming quality was his face; his intelligence was truly worrisome.
"Because Hill is the protagonist of this world."
Il wasn't surprised at all.
"But it doesn't matter anyway."
Willy yawned again, looking sleepy and his voice lowered.
"Even if Adrian doesn't fall in love with Hill, he's still unfit to be the Pope."
Why do you say that?
Il approached curiously, its curiosity evident.
After all, given the current situation, Adrian is an extremely outstanding candidate for pope, and there is no one more suitable than him.
"Because..."
Willie flashed that familiar smile again, drawing out the sound.
"He has an aura of dark magic that is so strong it's impossible to dissipate."
-
"Don't be too sad."
The black-haired professor hesitated for almost a few minutes before finally speaking, but after he finished speaking, he pursed his lips in regret.
Was my tone too harsh? Did I scare him? Or did he think I was making fun of him?
If I had known I would find out, I should have read more of the books Desmond recommended...
"Um?"
After finishing writing what he was writing, Willy looked up at his mentor, puzzled.
A few days ago, Ero suddenly asked him to come to the lab. Although Vili was unhappy with his seemingly casual attitude, he was really bored and eventually went.
But Ero's behavior was completely different from when they first met. If it weren't for the fact that his face was still pale and hard like plaster, Willy would have almost thought that he had been replaced.
Elro seemed to genuinely treat him as his student and began to impart all his knowledge to him.
No matter what questions Willie asked, he answered them patiently, as if he wanted to break down the knowledge and feed it to his students.
Besides attending classes, he also wanted to occupy Willy's other time, constantly sending him messages to discuss experimental ideas.
Fortunately, Vili himself was a standard magician and did not dislike such academic pursuits. Instead, he devoted himself to the research of necromancy.
Their relationship progressed rapidly, and Vili admitted to the system that Ero was indeed an outstanding necromancer, and that he had benefited greatly from being with him.
He now addresses his mentor with more sincerity, but for some reason, Ero's expression always seems a little strange when he hears it.
Today, Willy was called in to organize his recent experimental notes. He could have done this in his dorm, but it was fine to come to the lab.
The originally tranquil and warm atmosphere was suddenly broken by Ero's words.
Seeing that Ero did not reply, Vili spoke up again.
What's making you sad?
He's been engrossed in his research these past few days and has no idea what Elro is talking about.
Seeing this, the system finally couldn't hold back any longer.
“Host… In fact, during the few days you were in seclusion, the main characters have already gotten together.”
For a moment, Vili almost forgot who the main characters he was talking about were, but fortunately his excellent memory saved him.
He said with a hint of schadenfreude, "Poor Adrian."
Now the whole academy knows that His Holiness the Holy Son has been dumped.
The system couldn't bring itself to remind him that he was still Aiden's fiancé, and in other people's eyes, he was the one in a worse situation...
It thought for a moment, then spoke.
"Actually, the plot has changed... Adrian hasn't pursued Hill. He seems to be busy with other things lately, and he's been in the Papal Palace."
"Someone else facilitated the formal relationship between Hill and Aiden."
Upon hearing this, Willy immediately lost interest.
"What does that have to do with me?"
"..."
Left behind in the dormitory, Il frowned, his rat-like face contorted in a strange expression.
"Because the person who got close to Hill changed from Adrian to your brother, Ryan."
"?"
Vili flipped through the plot records and discovered that he actually had a pair of twin brothers named Ryan and Ryan.
Because they were half-siblings, their relationship was very cold; they wouldn't even exchange a word at home, let alone at the academy.
If it weren't for their shared noble surname, no one would know that they were connected.
Even so, some people still thought they were just distant relatives.
Unexpectedly, the usually reclusive Ero even knew about such a thing.
Willy would never have imagined how much someone had tossing and turning at night, going over his file again and again, during the time they hadn't been in contact.
Along with those around him, especially a certain prince, their faces were all scratched up in the files. If they hadn't retained their rationality, they might have been cursed.
Silence hung in the air until Willy finally remembered to reply.
"I remember now, Professor, you were talking about that."
"Don't worry, I'm not sad at all," Willie said sincerely. "So you don't need to worry at all, I will definitely not affect the progress of the experiment."
"..."
