Hewinia asked, "Is this your idea, or Ulysses’ idea?"
"I have no ideas," Anita said with a smile, "Do you remember what I told you before? I am not the outstanding Player that the principal expects, nor am I deeply moved by the pursuit of ultimate music. However... I cannot become, nor do I need to become such a Player, I just need to diligently fulfill the principal’s expectations. The principal wants to see the Seven Notes·Divine Song again, so I will help him see it. Twenty years ago, these people thwarted the principal, so I will help him take care of them, it’s that simple."
Hewinia said, "It sounds like you only live for him."
"Naturally," Anita said, "Miss Hewinia, have you been to the Seed District?"
"I grew up in the Seed District."
"I knew it, I felt a familiar aura from you," Anita said with a smile, "If you grew up in the Seed District, then you should understand me even more. Born from such a cesspool, from such mire, I was supposed to be a hopeless person, but the principal found me, he gave me everything."
"That’s because you are a Golden Note."
"No, at that time my note had not yet appeared, my master’s house had already abandoned me, I vividly remember that I had been thrown into a corpse pit, buried under a layer of dirt," Anita said, "It was the principal who brought me out, he gave me hope and rebirth... Miss Hewinia, have you had such an experience?"
Hewinia did not speak.
"I guess not," Anita said with a smile, "If you had, you would naturally understand what I mean... Ever since I met him, everything was destined, this is my fortune, and also my... destiny."
As she spoke, she stood up and took out the Magic Wand.
"So," Anita’s Magic Wand glowed softly, transforming it into a short sword, as she softly said, "from that moment, I was willing to give everything for the principal."
Hewinia did not speak, she quietly lit her own Magic Wand and glanced at the time.
The Holy Sound Master will awaken.
This should be the final battle.
Hewinia took a deep breath, preparing for battle.
Then, she saw Anita smiling brightly.
As she stabbed the transformed short sword into her own neck.
Hewinia’s pupils instantly contracted.
"Haha, surprised?" she said with a smile, "I am willing to give everything for the principal."
"Becoming a true note."
After she finished speaking, Anita fell into the pool of blood, dying with a full smile.
Hewinia fell into a stupor.
At the same time, the door behind her was pushed open with a "bang", several beams of white light shone in.
Countless neatly dressed Servants filed in, half of them cleaning the scene, while the other half approached Hewinia, bowed down, and after saying "Apologies, Miss Hewinia," they reached out their hands.
But it was not to kill her, because in their hands were towels, warm water, and new clothes.
They removed Hewinia’s blood-stained clothing, began to clean her wounds, and tidied up her appearance.
Some even knelt in front of Hewinia, helping to wipe her bare ankles.
They were all Players, yet unarmed, respectful, like the humblest Servants.
Twenty minutes later, everything was as good as new.
Hewinia, dressed in a luxurious robe, watched as they placed the cleaned bodies of Anita and Phinis in front of her.
Naked corpses, like cleaned meat, with golden notes painted on them.
They looked at Hewinia with eyes full of hope and expectation, loudly shouting.
"Play the Divine Song!"
"Play the Divine Song!"
"Play the Divine Song!"
