Suggestion needed on where to learn a complete opening repertoire

Hi all,
I'm participating in a local chess tourney next week, and it strikes me that my opening repertoire is mainly bullet-oriented, and will give me slightly worse positions in longer time controls.

Do you have any suggestion on where I can learn a complete opening repertoire?

The viable options that I am considering are:

1) getting a subscription to the chess.com video library
2) getting a subcription to the chess24.com video library
3) getting a chessable.com membership

Things that I'm not considering:
1) Books (difficult for me try out all the variations)
2) A coach: will not be cost-effective at this point, for me.
3) youtube has good videos, but they're too fragmented and incomplete, as far as I've seen.

What do you suggest?
I took a look through some of your games, and I honestly think you should be fine with them in longer time controls. If you really want to learn a different repertoire because you feel uncomfortable with your current one, I would recommend ChessBase's opening videos/DVDs. They are sold separately, (around $30 each) but are really easy to learn from. ChessBase offers ones that are repertoire based e.g. "1...e6: A Solid Repertoire against 1.d4 and 1.e4" I currently have three of them myself, (one on the Caro-Kann, London System, and Slav) and I find they are extremely easy to learn from. An extra bonus is that they all contain a quiz section that drills you on the material you've just learned. The one drawback is that they never go into as much detail as an opening book, but this can be supplemented by your own database research.
You want to learn a "complete" opening repertoire in a week?
@ace1886: you put in a lot of effort going through the games! anyway, thanks for the Chessbase suggestion. I'll look into it.

@Diakonia: yes, I want a place to learn a complete repertoire, but I will not use it fully replace my existing repertoire. There are lines in my existing repertoire that are sound: I"ll keep those, and change the rest.
Check out "Building an Opening Repertoire" by tiger chess on You Tube.
What are you already playing ? Chess24 videos are on average better than chess.com videos, but it depends on the topic. As far as I can, you're a 1.e4 player with White and you answer 1.e4 with 1...e5, so you will find a lot of written sources (including on the Schliemann, which has been covered by several good books).
If you need a full repertoire against 1.d4 and lines coherent with that against 1.Nf3, definitely this is a strong point of chess24, as these topics have been covered seriously and recently there.
