Victor sat in the carriage waiting for the maid's announcement, but Vega's muffled voice was heard in his ears.

"You're interested in that extinct volcano?"

The one-eyed crow was combing its shiny feathers again, perhaps so fat that its beak could no longer reach behind it.

Viktor glanced at Vega.

"How did you find out?"

Vega raised her head and said confidently.

"Otherwise, you wouldn't have come to this fiancée."

Victor ignored him and acquiesced.

It didn't take long for Victor to be patient, but Vega couldn't help it first.

"Why hasn't anyone called us in yet?"

The sound of flipping through the pages paused, and Victor closed the magic book and said lightly.

"Imagine what you would do if you were a beautiful woman, home alone, and someone wanted to see you at night, and that person was still your fiancé."

Vega tilted her head and thought for a while, then said hoarsely: "Dressed up beautifully, meet in the most exquisite posture?" ”

"I understand, she saw you coming over and put on makeup! And you are very patient waiting for her. ”

"No, she just thinks that this kind of person is sick and makes her feel bored."

Victor dismissed it with a blank face, but apparently, the crow was a little unconvinced.

"Why, I see that those novels are written like this, don't you understand women?"

"It's that you don't understand Gwen."

Victor turned his head and looked at the courtyard gate of Delin's house.

This holy knight has never considered himself a 'woman'.

Well, in fact, Victor himself doesn't know much about the current Gwen.

However, he thinks that Gwen should hate him at this time.

After all, no woman would like a man who puts on a stinky face every day and is cautious, and even does all the bad things.

The relationship between the fiancé and the fiancé is probably a stain on the life of Grand Knight Gwen until the end.

So after Victor's death, she also never married.

"Ready, it's time for us to go in."

He bowed his head to the crow on his shoulder and reminded him, who quickly straightened up to 'I'm a pet' and stood lazily on his shoulder.

After a while, the maid came to the carriage, respectfully told him that Miss Gwen was ready, and invited him in.

Victor dismounted from the carriage and led the way through the gate by the maid to the conference hall.

As soon as he entered, he saw Gwen.

The other party sat on the soft sofa, not dressed up, wrapped in a tight yukata that did not show any skin.

It looked like she had just come out of the shower.

However, she didn't need to dress up, and in Victor's opinion, even if she was just without makeup, this delicate and perfect face was enough to capture any man.

"What are you doing at such a late hour?"

Gwen's tone was tepid, with a hint of detachment.

Victor sat down across from her unceremoniously, his tone equally flat and straight to the point.

"I heard that you are going on a mission, and you won't come back for half a month."

Gwen didn't wonder where he had heard about it, and nodded sincerely.

"Well, we'll leave in a week."

"Can you take me with you?"

Gwen: "......"

Hearing this, her reaction was a little ...... Subtle.

At first, he was a little confused, and then he frowned, as if he was repeatedly confirming.

Finally, she leaned back, an expression of disbelief gradually appearing on her face.

Gwen reached out to her forehead, lowered her head, and asked again.

"Repeat what you just said."

"Can you take me with you?"

Without a moment's hesitation, Victor repeated.

"Hoo ......"

Gwen exhaled softly, she always felt that the other party had broken her brain.

"Why?"

"There's no way I'm going to take you with me without the right reasons."

Victor: "I know very well the terrain of the surrounding mountains, including the weaknesses of the monsters scattered around, take me with you, counting the round-trip journey, you can come back in only seven days." ”

Hearing his words, Gwen didn't raise her eyes, and she didn't know if she was considering Victor's value or didn't care at all.

Victor wanted to say something to raise his value in Gwen's eyes, but Gwen preemptively opened his mouth and gagged him.

"What I want, I tell the truth."

Victor's eyes were a little colder, he looked at Gwen, and said slowly, "...... You used abilities on me. ”

A knight born with righteousness, Gwen Delin developed his unique talent from an early age.

She has a righteous heart.

As long as she wanted to, she could clearly tell if the other side was lying.

This ability is freely controlled by Gwen, so she will not use her ability when she is not necessary.

However, she didn't believe in herself.

Victor didn't feel much angry, but rather expected.

Because this side proves how much Gwen hates him.

When talking to him, Gwen will even use her righteous heart to gauge whether he is lying.

"I don't trust you."

Gwen was blunt and didn't have any more explanations.

Suddenly, Victor smiled with relief.

He thought for a moment, then said again:

"There's a monster on Mount Vesuvius that produces a unique hedron that I need to make magic items."

After that, Victor's eyes showed a powerful desire.

[First Order Magic: Autosuggestion]

Effect: Hypnotizing oneself to increase any ability by 1 level for a period of time.

Dealing with Gwen's heart of justice is simple, he just needs to tell the truth.

Even if this truth is made up on the spot, as long as Victor himself believes it, it is the truth.

Mages also have their own means, that is, flexible morality and wise minds.

Gwen finally looked up at Victor.

"Looks like you know about the volcano, otherwise you wouldn't have said something like that."

"Even the Royal Knights can use it as your escort for their own ends."

"It's you, selfish Victor."

Victor didn't put on a poker face for the first time in a long time, and nodded with a smile.

"I accepted this sentence as a compliment."

Gwen didn't suspect Victor from a selfish point of view, because he was such a person.

She also knew that Victor would only become more and more entangled with her in order to achieve his goal.

In that case, it is better to agree.

"I'll apply for a companion mage, and you can come and see me that day."

Seeing that Gwen agreed, Victor smiled and replied, "Thank you, even for the sake of a selfish person like me, the Gwen knight who is willing to help selflessly." ”

"I'll have everything in place this week, so I don't have to send it anymore."

With that, Victor got up and left.

Gwen nodded and watched him leave.

But in his head, Victor's smiling face when he complimented him couldn't be swayed for a long time.

Victor, have you ever laughed like that?

Back in the carriage, Victor calmly leaned back in his seat, his inky black eyes not knowing where to stare at.

"You're angry?"

The crow asked suspiciously.

"Why do you think that?"

Vega: "Look at your poker face for a long time, it's just intuition. ”

"If you don't have much emotion, you won't smile like a chrysanthemum."

Angry?

Hearing its words, Victor thought for a moment.

Maybe the education in his bones made him want to be a good person, but he was so selfish when he was said by the other party's righteousness.

And only by pretending to be what she thinks can she get the approval of that person.

It's not enough to be angry.

It just made him feel a little sick.

.....

These days, Victor teaches at the academy during the day and spends his evenings in the basement researching magic potions.

As long as he has enough materials to provide, he can make a hundred bottles a day, all of which can be sold by Leah.

Leah said that when the store is renovated, these potions will be on the shelves, and only this one potion will be sold for the time being.

You need to make a name for yourself before you can consider buying other magic items.

Of course, Victor knew that once this kind of consumable was put on the shelves, it would definitely cause a crazy rush.

So he told Leah not to sell them all, and to limit them to fifty bottles a day.

Hunger marketing.

Leah is a businessman herself, and she knows a thing.

At the Academy, Victor was not idle, on the one hand, he was thinking about the topic of the lecture, and on the other hand, he made a decision.

Every time he attended the class, he would have Hernie on the sidelines.

In the name of beauty, absorb experience.

Erica comes to his office every night and often has a lot of questions to ask and is getting more and more diligent.

Although Victor was a little bored, Vega took the trouble to answer them one by one.

In order to keep Vega from chattering in his head all the time, he had to convey it all for Erica.

By the way, you can also make up for your magical knowledge from Vega.

After secretly studying with Vega, he realizes that Erica is really a genius.

He couldn't understand Vega's jerky and complicated content at all, but Erica would teach it.

Even at this point, it was as if she had a myriad of questions waiting to be answered.

Victor couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

For a talented and hard-working student like Erica, who is the first in her exams if she doesn't take the exam?

Everything was going well, and soon, it was the sixth day of his agreement with Gwen.

Hernie quietly followed behind Victor, who would still be following Professor Victor today.

She didn't quite understand why Professor Victor would let her sit in on it, even though it was a course she had written.

It wasn't until the two of them reached the door that she finally understood Professor Victor's intentions for the past few days.

"Today, I want you to go in yourself and use your knowledge to teach a lesson to the students in this class."

Hernie: "??? ”
