National Destiny: Starting with a gender-swapped role as Artoria

Page 123

When I got back to the classroom, I found that it was already the third class of the afternoon, and school was almost over.

Naturally, skipping class without a reason would be criticized. After school, Wu Yue was called directly to the principal's office, but due to Wu Yue's status...

The principal just sighed.

"Don't do this again next time. At least give a reason."

Wu Yue was then allowed to leave.

Wu Yue returned home alone, feeling dejected and absent-minded.

It was almost 7 p.m. when I got home. I opened the door and found Artoria and two others sitting in the living room watching TV.

"I am back."

"Welcome back."

Vermouth responded.

Wu Yue entered the living room, plopped down on the sofa, leaned back completely, and exuded a very lazy demeanor.

"What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I just find the internet so strange these days, full of all sorts of sarcastic and unpleasant comments. People are willing to abandon their dignity to achieve their own goals."

"makes sense."

Wu Yue then looked at Artoria. When Artoria noticed that Wu Yue was looking at her, she became nervous. She looked left and right, and finally lowered her head.

"What...what happened..."

"Nothing much. Did anything happen today? Like an assassination attempt or something?"

Artoria shook her head.

Wu Yue looked at Vermouth and Xiao Nan again, and both of them shook their heads.

"Let's pack up and rent a house that can accommodate four people. We'll move in tonight."

Everyone nodded.

After packing some things, the four of them set off. There's not much to say about the process; they eventually found a room they liked in an apartment two blocks away.

It's a building, located on the 12th floor.

Four bedrooms and one living room, with brand new sofa and furniture included, but you need to bring your own bedding.

Wu Yue signed the contract and swiped her card on the spot, then started moving her luggage, canceling her original room reservation, and dealing with a whole bunch of other things. By the time everything was finished, it was almost 9 p.m.

I drew back the curtains, stood on the balcony of my new house, looked at the colorful city at night, and breathed in the fresh air.

I feel much more at ease now, but then I suddenly feel like I overpaid for the house I bought for over 3000 million.

Wu Yue used purification magic to cleanse every part of the house again, and then cooked a meal with Vermouth.

The four of them enjoyed dinner face-to-face. During the meal, Wu Yue told Vermore about the German war.

Are you telling the truth?

"It should be true, after all, it was a reward I received from the war that determined the fate of the nation."

Vermouth nodded, her face clearly showing relief.

"Great, finally I, an ordinary person, can catch my breath."

Wu Yue was amused by this remark.

"You really don't know the organization's real location?"

"I don't know. Even Gin has cut off contact with me. Only he knows. Although Vodka was arrested, he probably doesn't know the organization's location either."

Wu Yue nodded, then tilted his head back and poured the juice directly into his mouth.

Four bedrooms, one room for each person, honestly, it's really very comfortable.

Late at night, lying on her large bed, Wu Yue, dressed in light blue pajamas, tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep, thinking about what had happened the night before.

She sat up, swept her loose, light blue hair behind her shoulders, secretly got out of bed, opened the door, and quietly walked towards the bedroom opposite.

That's Artoria's room.

—Thump—Thump—Thump—

"Who?"

It's Artoria's voice.

"It's me, I'm Wu Yue."

Artoria was about to get out of bed and open the door, but for some reason she suddenly hesitated, and her face turned red.

"Um...is there something you need...?"

"Ah? Um... I just wanted to chat with you or something..."

"Is it really... really just chatting?"

"real."

Wu Yue returned decisively from outside the door.

Soon, the door opened, revealing Artoria wearing a light gold nightgown, her long golden hair loose.

Artoria didn't draw the curtains, and the bright moonlight shone through, allowing Wu Yue to clearly see Artoria's face, which was very shy, with her ahoge (cowlick) spinning around.

so gorgeous.

Wu Yue immediately became a little agitated.

“Come in…come in…”

“Ah… mmm…”

The bed was large enough to comfortably accommodate two people. Under the covers, Artoria was inside, and Wu Yue was outside.

"What do you want to talk about?"

"Well, what are your plans for the future?"

·····Requesting flowers·· 0

"Intend?"

Artoria thought about it for a moment.

"Just live a simple and ordinary life, after all, this era doesn't require me to do anything."

"That's it."
