The backdrop can also be propped up.

It's the last school week before the holiday, but the students' enthusiasm hasn't been boosted by the approaching break.

As soon as he entered the classroom, Borest saw his classmates complaining about why the school holiday couldn't be extended by another week.

Just as Borest sat down, he saw "Haikal" walking over.

"Haikal" said apologetically, "I'm so sorry, that guy Heledy caused you trouble the other day."

“It’s alright, no need to apologize,” Borest said. “Anyway, I was just trying to save myself some trouble.”

"That's good." Hu Xiaohai, inside Haikar's body, breathed a sigh of relief and then said, "I had a problem I couldn't solve a few days ago, could you help me take a look?"

“Sure, which one?” Borest asked.

“This one,” Hu Xiaohai pointed to the question.

Borest stared at the problem in deep thought—he couldn't understand why Haikar never solved such simple problems, even though the teacher had explained them in class.

The day passed uneventfully, and the next few days were not much different from before—except for the addition of listening to the crows report on how their two younger sisters were doing at school.

The crows said the sisters were doing well; the children who used to bully them seemed afraid of them, but the two little girls were quite happy now.

On the eve of the holiday, Borest went to church as usual, and there he met an unexpected person—Helledy.

At this moment, Heledi was talking with church staff. Borest quietly approached and overheard that Heledi was asking the church staff when Evangeline would come out.

Borest listened for a while, concluding that Heledi had no other purpose than to see Evangeline, and then sat down as usual beneath the goddess statue to do his homework—ever since the familiar summoning. Because he hadn't summoned anything on the spot, the magic lamp had been turned off earlier than planned. His two younger sisters hadn't even finished their homework when the lamp went out; he wondered if it was some kind of revenge.

Heledi had expected Borist to come and question him about his presence, just like the suitors in his own harem in his previous life.

But Boris didn't; he simply sat down at the feet of the goddess statue and began doing his homework.

Helene was even more confused about where she had lost to a bookworm like Borest.

After finishing his homework, Borest looked up at the scenery outside the window and saw Heledi reflected in the window.

Heledi sat in the row behind Borist.

Upon seeing this, Borest chose to continue ignoring Heledi.

Borest turned his head back, took out his wand, and played some small spells in the air.

Evangeline finally finished her classes and preparations for the goddess's birthday.

Looking at the time, Evangeline realized that Borest had been there for a long time. She quickly walked to the church hall, followed by Reed.

As she walked into the hall, Evangeline saw that familiar figure. She had just smiled and was about to walk over when she was stopped by a church member.

It was the church staff member on night duty whom Heledi had asked. The staff member said, "The young master of the Heledi Lepsner family needs to see you."

Only then did Evangeline notice that a blond, blue-eyed boy was sitting behind Borist.

“I suggest you go find him first,” said the church staff member on night duty. “The Lepsner family is not to be trifled with.”

Evangeline nodded, indicating that she understood.

Seeing Evangeline walking towards him, Borest stopped his little magic spell and looked up at her.

Evangeline was a little worried that if she walked straight over, it might cause some harm to Borest.

But seeing Borest's "I already know" expression, Evangeline breathed a sigh of relief and walked directly to Heledi, asking, "Hello, young master Heledi Lepsner. May I ask what brings you to the church so late at night, and why you specifically asked to see me?"

“It’s nothing. I just heard that Miss Evangeline of the church prays devoutly to God every day and has been deeply loved by God since birth, so I took advantage of the free time today to come and see her.” Heledy smiled gently.

Evangeline was momentarily speechless—people who usually come to church to pray are either seeking redemption or hoping for a better rebirth in their next life.

They came wanting to see me?

How should I put it? This sounds a bit too strange, doesn't it? Evangeline thought.

While Evangeline and Heledi were talking, Rhett lifted her skirt and sat down next to Borest. Instead of chatting with Borest, she kept staring at his textbook.

After staring at the textbook for a while, Reed looked up at Borest.

Seeing that Reed was very interested in her textbook, Borest pushed one over to her and said, "Don't break it."

Then, Borest took out his notebook and began to organize the spells his father hadn't finished.

Evangeline talked with Heledy for a long time, growing increasingly anxious. She noticed that most of the church lights were already off, and if Heledy continued talking like this, she wouldn't have time to speak with Borest that day.

But Heledy showed no sign of letting Evangeline off the hook, and he started trying to find topics to talk about—even though those topics were rather far-fetched.

Finally, the rather contentious conversation between Evangeline and Helene ended with a servant calling Helene away.

After Heledi left, Evangeline checked the number of magic lamps still lit in the church.

Eighty percent of the magic lamps in the church have already gone out, and the remaining 20% ​​will be out soon too. Borist will probably be leaving soon.

Evangeline had intended to sit next to Borest, but she saw that Reed was already asleep in the seat closest to Borest.

Evangeline had no choice but to sit behind Borest. She went around Hayley's seat and then spoke to Borest.

“I’m sorry, Fred, for keeping you waiting,” Evangeline said.

“It’s alright,” Borest said. “His late arrival at church is his problem, and you don’t need to apologize to me for it. Evalin, it’s not your fault.”

"Ah, is that so?" Evangeline was speechless for a moment when she heard Borest's reply, her heart pounding.

"Yes, how have you been these past few days? Have you been sleeping well?" Borest asked.

“I’ve been sleeping quite well these past few days,” Evangeline replied. “Thank you for the sleep-inducing spell; I feel much better these days.”

"It's nothing, I just figured it out by chance," Borist said. "Is the Goddess's birthday party ready?"

"Yes, that's right, everything's ready. You'll see it tomorrow." After saying this, Ivangeline was momentarily speechless.

"That's good. Try to go to bed early these next few days. Your dark circles have finally gotten a little better," Borist said with difficulty.

There was an unusual awkward silence between Borest and Evangeline.

Ivangerling wanted to tell Borist about what was happening in the church, but she felt that Borist might not be interested in their arrangements.

Besides, Reed is still asleep, and it wouldn't be good to disturb her sleep.

Suddenly, everything went dark, and the last 20% of the lights in the church went out.

"The lights are all off, I'm leaving now," Borist said, putting away his textbooks and notes.

Evangeline wanted to say goodbye, but then she saw Borest turn towards her again.

"What's wrong?" Evangeline asked, unconsciously touching the cross hanging on her chest.

“Evanline, please put your hand out,” Borest said.

"What are you doing?" Evangeline asked, puzzled, but didn't ask any further questions and simply extended her hand.

Borest waved his wand and muttered something Evangeline couldn't understand.

Then, Evangeline saw a beautiful seven-colored flower bloom in her hands.

“The seven-colored flower in the story that can grant wishes.” Evangeline murmured unconsciously, then blushed when she realized what she had said—would Borist think she was childish?

“Oli and Lola often pester me to read them stories that feature this flower,” Borist said.

"The Seven-Colored Flower is said to grant all wishes, and it appears in the southern part of the continent. I'm sorry, all I can give you now is a fleeting illusion that can only last for a few days."

“It’s alright, the idea that the rainbow flower can grant wishes is just a legend,” Ivangeline said with a smile, then added with longing, “But the rainbow flower is still very beautiful. I wish I could see it in person.”

“Hmm,” Borist agreed, then he added something else.

Happy birthday, Evanline. I'll give you your present tomorrow.

Evangeline was stunned—she was considered by people to be deeply favored by the gods because she was born at the same time as the goddess who bestowed magic upon this continent. But as time went on, people quickly forgot about this.

What Evangeline didn't expect was that Borist had remembered it so well, even though she had only mentioned it to him briefly last year.
