"Felyn, I don't know how long it will be before you see this letter.

It's a bit childish, isn't it, for me to be writing you a letter when we're both together right now. But there are some things I feel I can't say to you face-to-face.

You can finally be free of me, this willful young lady. Congratulations.

Looking back on our time together, I constantly made things difficult for you, questioned you, and lost my temper at you, yet you were always so tolerant. No matter how unreasonable I was, I never saw any impatience on your face.

Before the contract ended, I even told my parents I wanted to marry you. They didn't agree, so I didn't eat for three days to force them to change their minds.

Hehe, I was pretty foolish back then, wasn't I?

When you told me that everything you did was because of the contract, I couldn't believe it at first.

But facts are facts.

Perhaps I will one day walk out of the gentle fantasy you created for me. Perhaps I will still think of you occasionally in the future. Who knows what the future holds.

You're chatting with the shop girl right now, still as popular with girls as ever.

I'm also a little curious which lucky girl you'll end up with.

Time is limited, and I actually have a lot more I want to say to you, but let's get to the point.

Please forgive my willfulness and all my past unreasonable behavior.

I want to say, those were all signs of my immaturity, my clumsy way of not knowing how to properly express my feelings.

Of course, I know this has hurt you, and I don't expect your forgiveness. I just want to tell you that I've realized my own problems.

Now, I have let go of my feelings for you. I once had you, even if only for a short time, and that's good enough.

Thank you, Felyn, for making my life less boring.

Perhaps on some ordinary afternoon, when the sun shines through the window onto your desk, you will accidentally remember that once-willful songstress.

At that time, I hope that besides disliking her, you can also remember that at least at the end of this relationship, she realized her mistakes.

But there is no chance to make up for any of it. Our story ends here.

You're coming back with water now. There isn't much time left.

If fate allows, I hope one day we can get to know each other again in different capacities.

But if that's not possible, please leave this letter, along with the memories of me, in a less important corner of your life.

That's all. This is the last time I'll bother you.

I wish you all the best."

Dorothy finished reading the last word, exhausting the last bit of strength in her body.

The letter did not contain the writer's name, nor was it signed.

But Dorothy, who had collected so many of Zervanie's autographs, recognized her handwriting.

"This is impossible."

Dorothy looked at the letter on the table and took a few steps back.

Miss Zervanie, the empire's super-popular songstress, whose poster was still hanging on her bedroom wall.

She once liked Felyn?

"This is impossible," she repeated.

This letter, or rather, love letter, Dorothy didn't dare to read a second time.

But she remembered every single word clearly.

"Miss Zervanie, Zervanie, she liked Felyn."

Had she really let go completely, as the letter said?

Had her story with Felyn really ended?

Obviously not. After Zervanie's concert in the capital district, Dorothy had gone backstage to see her.

At that time, Dorothy had discovered that there was still someone living in Zervanie's heart.

She had even said to Zervanie, "If another girl appears around the person you like, Zervanie, I'll help you drive her away too."

But she never expected that the person in Zervanie's heart was Felyn.

"Brother Felyn... just how many girls have you been with behind my back?"

Dorothy sat on the bed, curling up her body.

First, it was Adeline, then Zervanie.

If this continued, Brother Felyn might really be snatched away by another woman.

"This won't do, this won't do at all, Miss Zervanie. Why are you still staying by Brother Felyn's side... You still like him, don't you? I should be the only one by Brother Felyn's side. Brother Felyn's eyes should only have me in them."

"Brother Felyn, I've never investigated you before. But now, Dorothy is a little jealous..."

Dorothy stood up, her long pinkish-purple hair swaying with the magical power she released.

Her face was obscured by her wildly flying hair, only her purple eyes visible.

"Brother Felyn, please forgive Dorothy this one time. I also believe that Brother Felyn wants to be with me forever. So, I'll take the liberty of helping Brother Felyn reject the girls around him. After this is over, Brother Felyn can punish Dorothy however he wants. I will listen to Brother Felyn obediently..."

"After this is over." The corners of her mouth turned up, revealing a smile completely at odds with her usual self.

As the imperial princess, Dorothy's sources of information were far more numerous than those of the young ladies around Felyn.

No, more numerous than the young ladies besides Daiyi.

She quickly found the school Felyn attended and learned that they were recently preparing for a school festival.

Dorothy even found the list of school festival committee members that Adeline had submitted to the school. Felyn was on that list.

Dorothy didn't look for Felyn's home address, because she didn't think he could be hiding a girl in his house.

"Saint Andros Academy... Brother Felyn, I wonder if you'll be happy when I come to find you."

Dorothy cupped her face in her hands, spreading all of Felyn's information on the bed.

To her, information about Felyn was like an enhancement sigil, letting her feel the pleasant thrill of being surrounded by him.

"Your Highness, I have prepared what you asked for." Veronica knocked on the door, then came in and handed Dorothy a bag.

Inside was the white and red student uniform of Saint Andros Academy.

It only took Dorothy a day to gather this information. It was now only Tuesday morning.

Now that she knew Felyn's location, Dorothy couldn't resist the urge to go and see what was happening around him.

She also wanted to become a part of Felyn's daily life, rather than only being able to see him during their contract time.

If she ran into Zervanie, then she would...

"Veronica, please help me cover things up here in the capital. I'll be back soon."

"As you command, Your Highness."

Dorothy had already changed into the white and red student uniform. On her feet were white stockings and small black leather shoes, making her look as youthful and lively as a fifteen or sixteen-year-old.

The teleportation sigil activated.

Dorothy was transported to the church closest to Saint Andros Academy.

"Brother Felyn, I'm here to find you~"
