"What are you thinking about, Tilan?"

A familiar voice reached the girl sitting in the audience, and then the young miss in a black Lace dress sat down beside her.

"I’m thinking that what I can do is actually quite limited," the girl turned her head, looking towards Deloris beside her.

"In the new term, although I’ve formulated good plans and arrangements for everyone, when it comes down to it, I can only sit here and watch everyone struggle and shout."

"Hehehe~ Are you thinking of going down to help them with their training, Tilan?" Deloris found it amusing and then began to console the overly sympathetic girl.

"Victory is their glory, and the training filled with sweat is the ladder to their strength. This is their own growth and transformation. If they fail, it’s also the result of their own lack of strength, not because of you."

"Tilan, you can inspire everyone’s fighting spirit and encourage them, and you have done very well already. You don’t need to worry about everyone anymore."

"Otherwise, you’ll become an annoying old granny, you know~" As she said this, Deloris lightly scraped the tip of Tilan’s nose with her fingertip.

After listening to Deloris’s comforting words, Tilan felt much relieved and also revealed her previous thoughts. Experience new tales on novelbuddy

"Mainly, seeing everyone working so hard while I just sit by the side, it’s a bit uncomfortable..." She attempted to describe that feeling.

"I get it, Tilan, you’re afraid that someone will say, ’Why should we train so hard while you just sit on the stage and enjoy the fruits of victory?’ You’re worried about such accusations, right?" Deloris quickly figured out what was on the girl’s mind.

"Tilan’s thoughts are always so delicate. Let me think about how to explain this to you."

"It must be that in the environment where you used to live, people often criticized you like this. But in reality, you don’t need to bear these," Deloris gently stroked the girl’s hair.

"Even if Edith Academy fails, it’s not your responsibility. Success or failure has so many factors, and Tilan, you’re still just a student. You’re not the owner of Edith Academy. You haven’t gained everything from the academy, nor should you bear everything."

"With this relaxed mindset, you can just focus on what you’re doing."

"However, as I said all this, you probably won’t listen," Deloris said with a light press on Tilan’s shoulder.

"Because Tilan is just so full of sympathy and responsibility, like a little sun. Although still very small, it tries so hard to spread its light and warmth, preferring to suffer itself rather than to fail to present everyone with hope and beauty."

"If everyone fails, even if it’s not because of you, you’ll still feel very bad, thinking that you’ve let everyone down and disappointed them."

Although the black-haired girl did not speak, every word from the young miss in front of her struck a chord in her heart; it was clear the two were close friends and understood each other’s thoughts all too well.

"Wanting to do more, not wanting everyone’s efforts and sweat to be in vain, to not repeat the tragedy of the former president, Tilan, this has always been on your mind, hasn’t it?"

"Mhm," the girl responded softly, looking down, feeling her ears grow warm because Deloris had hit the nail on the head.

"Our Little Tilan is just so pure and adorable," Deloris said, touching Tilan’s ear and then raising her head.

"Let’s visit some other academies," Deloris suddenly suggested.

"Although Tilan has already been working very hard, because you do not understand the other academies competing with Edith today, it’s like fighting an enemy in the mist, full of the unknown and anxiety."

"Unease and fear come from the unknown. If Tilan clearly understands the situation of several other academies nowadays, you’ll know the current state of Edith Academy, then you can train with a target in mind and roughly estimate your own level of competence."

"In such a case, even if we fail in the end, the disappointment won’t be too great. Even if we lose, we’ll lose with clarity," said Deloris as she stood up, sharing her thoughts with Tilan.

"And I think, Tilan, if it’s you, you will find a way out before failure and tragedy strike," Deloris continued, extending her hand in front of the girl.

"I believe in you, Tilan, in you who are as warm as the sun. You won’t give up on hope and possibility, and you will certainly lead everyone out of the shadows of failure."

Looking at the hand extended before her, the girl blinked, hiding the brimming tears in her eyes, and then looked down at the ground.

"Why do you believe in me so much? The truth is, although I have my moments of strength, most of the time I am very weak, prone to worrying, and indecisive," she said, one hand pressed against her chest and the other at her side, fiddling with the edge of her black skirt.

"Because that’s what your heart tells me," Deloris closed her eyes.

"Although Tilan’s singing voice carries a faint sadness and coldness, there is a pure and passionate fire within, like the sun beneath glaciers and waters, subtly present."

"It is because you harbor hope that you feel disappointment, it is because you have higher expectations of the world that you feel sorrow for what is in front of you."

"Disliking this corrupt world, not fond of ugly and insincere things, yet worldly teachings force you to temporarily succumb to them," Deloris crouched down and embraced the girl before her.

"Your hesitation and uncertainty are the resistance and struggle deep inside you against all this. Once you find the right path and method, you will become instantly determined, without any hesitation," she added.

"I know, oh, I know about the fervent desire hidden in Tilan’s heart, this beautiful wish that may seem naive and impractical to outsiders. But I think it’s only because they have already given up and submitted to worldly gains, justifying and excusing their actions," Deloris explained.

"When the truly powerful and beautiful sun reveals itself, they dare not look directly into such brilliance because it exposes their ugliness and disgrace, as if placed under the spotlight for all to see, with nowhere to hide."

"Er, it’s not as grand as Deloris makes it sound, like I’m some kind of amazing person," the girl said shyly, turning her face away and feeling her cheeks flush.

Deloris smiled at Tilan and then took her hand, pulling the girl up from her seat.

"Then let’s move forward. I believe that Tilan will become just as I’ve described," she said, blinking as she wiped away the tears lingering at the corner of Tilan’s eyes.

"Let’s apply to the Academy today. We’ll visit and call upon the other Academies so Tilan can feel more at ease and not so worried and anxious," Deloris suggested.

"Don’t put all the pressure on yourself; we’re here for you, whether it’s the student council or the members of the clubs. I’m sure everyone would be very willing to help Tilan," she reassured.

"Friendship is like that too. If it’s only you giving unilaterally, it becomes strange. When others return your help, it also allows them to feel secure and reassured because you’ve made them feel valued and needed," she explained.

"Because you shine so brightly, you’re so exalted, your ’need’ will grant them greater recognition and make them feel prouder and more fulfilled," Deloris said.

"Just like a melody and rhythm that keep resounding, in this continuous exchange, the bond and connection between both parties will grow ever more tenacious."

Deloris may not understand the abilities and methods of enhancement of a Songstress, but many things share similar patterns, and Tilan kept these words in her heart, reflecting upon them alongside the teachings of the High Priest.

Closing her eyes to compose her emotions, the girl reopened them, and it seemed as if a faint blue radiance danced within, captivating as the shimmering reflection on water.

"I understand," she said.
