Became the Golden Sun of the Academy

131 – Conclusion (1)

Time passes by and it is winter, white snow falling from the sky.

Compared to the eventful one semester, the second semester was surprisingly uneventful.

If you think about it, it was natural.

All the incidents that could have happened occurred in the first semester, and since we have resolved them all, even if an incident occurs, it is only a minor problem that cannot be compared to what happened then.

Thanks to this, there were no problems serious enough to cause tension during the summer and fall.

“I remember you shouting at me that you would find a way to go back.”

“… ….”

Future Lucy, who was building a large snowman with Tina in a garden full of snow, shook the snow off her hands.

She approached her with big steps, stepping on the snow, and frowned at her as if she was trying to show that she was full of dissatisfaction.

“What? “Are you saying you want me to go back?”

“It’s nothing in particular, but didn’t you always tell me to leave it alone because it would take care of itself like you said? “I thought you had the heart to go back.”

“What? “That makes it sound like I don’t want to go back.”

I stared at Future Lucy.

The guy opened his eyes wide and did not avoid his gaze, but then slowly rolled his eyes and looked into the distance.

“I thought that was the case, but wasn’t it?”

Future Lucy answers questions with silence.

Just looking at him, he still says he will leave someday due to his original pride, and it seems like he is planning to sit down in this world.

“Oh, no… ….”

As I drifted into a positive mood, I tried to deny it in a creeping voice, but that didn’t change my thoughts.

Even if we say Lucy from the future, she is still Lucy in the end.

It’s all visible on the face.

“It’s not true! Someone wants to be here because of you! There are degrees of excessive self-consciousness…… !”

“I didn’t specifically say that.”

“No. Your expression was exactly like that. Just looking at it, Lucy is Lucy after all. “You thought you knew what I was thinking.”

“Is it now enough to see through my thoughts in reverse? “There’s a lot of interest.”

“No!”

Future Lucy clenching her fists and shaking her head.

When Tina and Lucy looked at her pitifully, she seemed to be embarrassed as well, so she balled up her eyes and threw them at them.

“It would be nice to go back.”

Outdoor table located a little distance away.

Unlike the active Lucy and Tina, who like to step on the snow and play with it, there are people who like to sit still and watch the snow fall.

Anastasia is biting into a steaming bun.

Sylvia’s body is weak, and even though she wears a fur hat, fur earmuffs, a scarf, and gloves, the tip of her nose is red.

And even Charlotte, who says that Lucy’s room is cramped, starts to dislike future Lucy, who is sitting in her mansion like Anastasia.

Anyway, Future Lucy turned around at Charlotte’s words, which seemed to be aimed at her.

But Charlotte didn’t pay any attention to her. She peeled the tangerines she was peeling and gave them to me, then looked at future Lucy.

“It would be nice if I could at least help with the work, but she’s like a parasite whose only job is to eat, sleep, and take care of herself.”

“… ….”

Future Lucy’s mouth fell shut.

She had been like that since she lived in Lucy’s dormitory, and even after coming to her mansion, she couldn’t get rid of that habit. In the future, Lucy was not only getting hit on by her Charlotte, but she was also often scolded by Tina.

“Why are you giving me notice when you told me not to do it?”

“That’s worse than not working. “I’m breaking dishes while I’m doing the dishes. Should I leave that alone?”

As I was listening to the conversation, Raviel’s words came to mind.

She said that if she is cute, she can be lenient even if she commits a mistake, and this was realized through the difference in Charlotte’s attitude towards Tina and Mirae Lucy.

Well, it may have been because of Future Lucy’s attitude, but she intervened because she thought it would be better to intervene.

“More than that, Lucy. “What are you going to do about Kyle?”

“Why are you asking me that? “The only person who knows Kyle from this time zone is Lucy over there.”

“There isn’t much of a difference now, is there? “Your thoughts and my Lucy’s thoughts will all be there.”

The conversation with Future Lucy was about whether to send a wedding invitation to Kyle.

Although it didn’t end well, aren’t Lucy and Kyle like family who have known each other for a long time?

For me, it doesn’t matter what I do with Kyle, but it might be quite a concern for Lucy, so I felt like I had to ask about it first.

“True.”

Future Lucy dragged a chair and sat across from the table.

She, who had given me the tangerine to eat, tried to sneak a bite of it, but under Charlotte’s gaze, she put the tangerine down and rested her chin on it and sighed.

“Wouldn’t it be right to send it? Still, we’ve known each other for several years. Since time has passed, I’m sure Kyle has sorted out his thoughts to some extent, so I don’t think there will be any major problems, right?”

“Hmm, that’s right.”

Lucy said that, but did Kyle really put his mind together?

She can confidently answer that question, “No.”

As someone who has seen his mind from Kyle’s perspective, I thought Lucy’s choice was cruel to Kyle, but I didn’t think it was worth worrying about Kyle’s feelings, not Lucy’s feelings, so I didn’t say it out loud.

So, I pushed an envelope that was in my arms to Lucy.

It would be okay if I handed it to him, but if I did, Kyle might think I was deceiving him, so I thought it would be better for Lucy to hand it to him.

“Then hand it over. You can do it yourself, or you can hand it over to Lucy.”

“Can I give it to you?”

Future Lucy got up from her seat and walked toward Lucy, who was happily looking at the giant snowman she and Tina had built together.

After a brief conversation, Lucy looked at the envelope she had received and put it in her pocket.

It looks like he wants to pass this on to Kyle.

* * *

“Wow, you’re old enough to receive something like this from a classmate.”

Chiron, who received a wedding invitation from Lucy, congratulated her purely.

In the past, he seemed slightly concerned that the other person was Adele and not Kyle, but now he respected Lucy’s choice.

However, even for Chiron, he couldn’t help but be a little embarrassed when he opened the wedding invitation.

“But the bride…… It’s a bit much…….”

It wasn’t up to par.

The number of brides included in one wedding invitation is as many as five.

It felt as if something that would have been considered a fantasy to Chiron, an ordinary person, was happening right in front of his eyes.

“There are some familiar names. If it’s Charlotte Echo, she seems to be the woman who was famous for dumping a lot of men…… If it’s Anastasia Aris, she seems to be the senior I know…… Well, why is the saint’s name listed here…? … ? Is she a person with the same name? … ?”

Lucy scratched her head sheepishly at the expected reaction.

“It’s a bit much…… ? Still, it was good because it was complicated…… !”

“Oh, okay. “I was worried that there might be a fight among the wives because there are so many of them, but I’m glad the atmosphere is good.”

Lucy asked Chiron, who could not easily take his eyes off the wedding invitation.

“Oh, and I’m going to tell this to Kyle, but is he in his room?”

“To Kyle?”

Chiron laughed as if he was having trouble hearing those words.

“Why? “Is Kyle not in his room?”

“No, there is…… Write it. Well, I don’t think it’s my place to say anything. You can go check it out.”

The answer was puzzling, but since she said she was in her room, Lucy walked to the floor where Kyle’s room was.

She knocked on the tightly closed door with the back of her hand.

─… ….

Be quiet.

Chiron would have said she was in the room, but she didn’t respond as if no one was there.

Knock knock.

Another knock.

─… ….

“Are you still sleeping?”

Still, there was no response, so the moment Lucy tried to turn her steps.

Woodangtang!

A loud noise coming from the room.

I heard the sound of someone crying and running, and then I jumped up! The door opened.

Kyle, who opened the door and came out, looked like a barbarian even if we looked at him kindly.

He had a beard that had grown thick and unmaintained, hair that had grown to the point where it was impossible to see his eyes, and clothes that looked like rags, all of which made him look like that.

“Lu, Lucy…… ?”

And the moment he opened his mouth, the smell of his alcohol seemed to spread through the entrance.

The smell is so strong that you can’t even tell how much alcohol you’ve drunk.

Lucy smiled awkwardly and shook his hand.

“Ah, Kyle. Long time no see… ….”

Why did people change so much?

Lucy didn’t even think about the reason why it was because she hadn’t sorted out her feelings for herself yet, and thought it was because she was being lazy with graduation approaching.

“Why did you come…… ?”

When he saw Lucy come to see him, he hoped that she had come to see him because of a slight falling out with Adele.

If someone had read my thoughts, they might have thought it was ugly, but even though this much time had passed, I still couldn’t forget Lucy, so I didn’t feel ashamed.

“I have something to tell you.”

Lucy rummaged through his pockets and handed Kyle an envelope.

Kyle immediately ripped off the wax stamp and checked its contents.

Lucy explained with a shy expression in front of Kyle, whose expression was gradually hardening.

“Actually, I decided to marry Adele after I graduated. It may feel shameless, but I think I would be happy if you came too.”

“Ah.”

Kyle’s hand holding the wedding invitation trembled at her words.

She felt like her hangover was coming up, her head hurt like it was going to explode, and her stomach felt nauseous, but she held it in and didn’t show it.

“That’s right. Huh.”

She didn’t want to give up on Lucy, who, unlike herself, found her happiness.

“I should go celebrate too… ….”

Kyle smiled sadly, saying something that wasn’t even on her mind.
