Chapter 247 - HIS COMMON SENSE SAYS 'NO, IT'S NOT HIM'

Words : 1020 Updated : Sep 27th, 2025

ASTRID remembered that this username belonged to someone named ‘White Wolf’. Being able to gather this much evidence in such a short period of time, the identity of this person was definitely not simple. When he first saw the name ‘White Wolf’, the first thing that came to his mind was the unpredictable prince of their Empire. But he quickly rejected that idea. After all, he believed that Wulfric had much better things to do than signing at [Cyberspace] and defending him from his bashers. But now, he wasn’t so sure anymore. The name this person was using was one of the monikers given to Wulfric – the White Wolf of Alluna. Which was not so subtle at all. And through this incident, this person just showed that he had means beyond what a normal civilian could do. The checking of the IPs was easy, even Astrid could do that with enough time. But checking the money transaction? That’s not something anyone could just do. One must know that in this era, physical money no longer existed. Everything was now digital. From bank transactions to simple paying of meals in a restaurant. That’s why there’s a strong security when it came to money transfers and other money-related transactions. To protect people’s money from cyber thieves and other problems. If anyone could just check other people’s money transactions, what’s the point of this strong security? Even high-ranking nobles couldn’t just easily access that. Unless it’s because of some emergency or something. So, that meant this White Wolf was no ordinary person. Someone with extraordinary background that used the name ‘White Wolf’, knew Astrid personally that’s why they were so hellbent on ‘protecting’ him and also had the temper to lash out on people like this, there’s really only one person that came to mind. His newly recognized friend, the one and only prince of the Empire – Wulfric de Lunaris. But then, he came back again to the question of ‘why?’. Because, seriously, would Wulfric really waste his time doing such a thing? But what Astrid didn’t know was, this could hardly be considered as a ‘waste of time’. Anything related to him, Wulfric considered as top priority. Sadly, at this point of time, Astrid hadn’t gotten to a point where he would confidently assume that Wulfric would protect him against anything. At this moment, Astrid was only full of confusion regarding this matter. Even though there were evidence suggesting that it could indeed be Wulfric, his brain just couldn’t accept it. His common sense was simply telling him that no, it’s impossible. Would that guy really go to [Cyberspace] and use the username @astridsnumber1fan? Even the craziest person in the Empire would surely not think of that. Much less Astrid. No matter how much he thought it was him, the logical part of him would shout ‘no, it’s definitely impossible!’. This problem could easily be solved by just asking Wulfric directly. But if he did ask the other, then, he wanted it to be face to face. Not through a video call. At least with that, he could observe every micro-expression he had and he could quickly judge whether he’s lying or not. Just as he was thinking on what to do next, a notification alert appeared on his Terminal, telling him that someone was requesting a video call. When he clicked on it, he saw that it was Ellis. He didn’t waste time and just answered it. Ellis’ face appeared on the virtual screen. Before Astrid could speak, the other spoke ahead of him. “Astrid, tell me honestly, do you know this ‘White Wolf’? The one going around [Cyberspace] defending you?” Ellis asked with a serious expression on her face. Astrid felt a little bit funny. White Wolf wasn’t really going around [Cyberspace] to defend him. Since the other only commented under the trailer posted by [Blind Justice]’s official [Cyberspace] account. He stopped himself from chuckling. He had already expected that his agent would know about what this White Wolf had done. After all, the other was probably already on stand-by the moment the trailer was released. Just so she could quickly deal with whatever backlash this trailer would have on Astrid. And just as he guessed, Ellis was indeed waiting for the release of the trailer and monitoring everyone’s reaction to it. When the discordant voices started to appear, she also began her work. But who would have thought that there would be someone even faster than her? She hadn’t yet started gathering evidence and somebody already did it for her. Posting a comment with evidence was not the end though. Someone even sent an encrypted file to her via email. What was written there was as follows; [To Miss Ellis Payne, The file attached below has all the evidence of money transactions made by the person responsible for the negative backlash Astrid is receiving right now. Please, don’t hesitate to seek justice. I’m sure Polaris would protect their artist regardless of the other’s popularity. Right? PS. Please, download the file within five seconds. Or it will be automatically deleted.] Before Ellis could think properly, her hand had already moved and downloaded the file. After she downloaded it, the email suddenly disappeared as if it had never been there in the first place. That’s when she knew that the one who sent her the email and the file was probably someone with extraordinary background. Someone like that would definitely not do this out of the goodness of their heart. The only reason she could think of was because this person had unspeakable feelings for Astrid. What if the other took this as a sign that Astrid now owed them for this incident? Worst of all, what if this person directly became a stalker? With such a background, it would definitely be hard to handle. As a capable agent, no matter who this person was, if they dared to move even a finger of Astrid, she would never let them go.
