(A heads-up: this chapter requires careful reading as it contains a lot of complex logic.)
(The final chapter is the next one, which is currently being written and will be updated tomorrow along with the author's closing remarks.)

"Victor, you're really famous now!"
An angry shouting came from the study.
Lia, holding a newspaper, slammed it onto the table as if she could finally contain her anger.
Bang!
A loud bang pulled Viktor back from his wandering thoughts.
He picked it up expressionlessly, seemingly indifferent.
His obsidian-bright eyes quietly scanned the contents of the newspaper.
[Shocking! Viscount Clavner wreaks havoc at the Duke's residence; Duke Reeves seriously injured and hospitalized, his life hanging in the balance.]
It must be said that this newspaper knows how to select the key points.
If he himself saw such a title, he would probably spend a few coins to buy one as a pastime during afternoon tea.
Unfortunately, the subject of this newspaper's headline was none other than himself.
Victor Clevina.
He looked at the mirror on his desk, and the reflection was exactly the same as the handsome man in the newspaper.
But as someone who just transmigrated today and has no memory of it at all.
Victor didn't want to take the blame.
until……
"Even if you are the princess's teacher, you shouldn't do this!"
The woman in front of him continued her angry rebukes, but at the same time, there was also a hint of unease and worry in her words.
Upon hearing this, Viktor raised an eyebrow sharply.
The princess's teacher?
When did the character Victor Clavner acquire this identity?
He knew he had transmigrated into the body of Victor Clavner, and he was also aware of Victor's character setup.
The villain is universally disliked, even by his own family.
But the female character in front of him must be Viktor's family member.
Leah Clementina.
Victor's sister, the true hidden head of the Clavenna family.
Logically speaking, she should hate herself.
But the worry in her eyes was clearly genuine, especially after what she said next.
“I know I was a bit harsh, and it’s been a long time since I’ve called you by your name like that.”
"But I'm saying this just to wake you up."
She took a deep breath, and then, as if offering advice, spoke earnestly to Victor:
"The Duke really has no daughter. Don't do anything more absurd for a fictional character."
A duke? No daughter?
For some reason, hearing those words, especially Lia's attitude towards him, made him feel...
This gave Viktor an even stranger sense of disconnect.
In the original story, wasn't it precisely because Victor confessed his feelings to the Duke's daughter that he became antagonistic towards the Duke?
How can there be any claim that the Duke had no daughters?
Did he travel to the wrong place?
Seeing that Victor remained silent, Lia thought he had listened but still refused to accept the truth.
Helpless, she finally sighed.
He took two steps forward and stood behind Viktor.
While Viktor was bewildered, she gently hugged him from behind.
“I know you might not be able to accept it right away, but that’s the truth.”
“Gwen already knows about this. I will work with her to help you resolve this matter, and also apologize to the Duke.”
The gentle voice faded, and the embrace ended.
Lia picked up her handbag again and walked towards the door.
Just as she opened the door to leave, she turned her head slightly and gave Victor a reassuring smile.
"Brother, get some rest."
"Oh, by the way, if you want to keep a pet, I wouldn't recommend keeping a crow."
"Especially crows with only one eye."
squeak--
The study door closed gently.
A maid's gentle voice came from outside the door.
"Miss Lia, would you like a carriage prepared for you?"
But at this moment, Viktor's thoughts had temporarily stopped.
He pondered what Liya had said as she left, and slowly turned his head away.
What came into view was a dark, inky creature in the corner of the desk.
It looks like a crow, but it's much bigger than a regular crow.
And as Lia said.
It has only one eye.
That eye seemed to be full of humanity, completely different from the innocent temperament of a typical pet, and even had a hint of cunning.
His eyes darted around, as if he were sizing up Viktor.
"So that's how it is."
"Two entities with the same name cannot coexist in the same spacetime."
The hoarse voice clearly came from the crow in front of them.
But is it talking to itself?
Viktor could hardly believe his ears. A raven could talk?
The crow did not stop, continuing its chatter as if talking to itself, completely ignoring Viktor's presence.
"Vega was originally my name, but I gave it to you, so I will no longer exist in the world after this."
“But you went back and, with the help of the goddess of nature, she gave me my name again.”
"However, you continue to reincarnate with the name 'Vega'."
“You can be Victor, or you can be Vega, because the meaning of these two names is essentially the same.”
"However, when I reappear before you with the name Vega, your memories as 'Vega' disappear due to the appearance of the real person."
