Chapter 61: Elegant, Timeless

Victor stomped his foot, and the teleportation circle lit up beneath him again.

It was late at night, and the servants in the house had already slept, and Victor didn't want to wake them up with much fanfare.

So just use teleportation magic to find them one by one.

In the middle of the night, a burly white-haired old man who heard the movement slowly walked up to the second floor and walked to the room where the sound was made.

As a burst of fluorescent blue light faded from the room, Victor appeared in a dimly lit room.

He looked left and right, and it wasn't his room.

It should be a guest room.

Victor was about to teleport and continued to change rooms.

There was a creak from the door of the room.

The old man pushed open Victor's door and appeared behind him.

His burly body resembled a giant bear, and his appearance seemed to cast a shadow over the room.

Not even the glow of the night could penetrate his body.

And when the old man saw the people in the room clearly, he lifted his monocle, put his hand on his chest and bowed.

"Master, you're back."

Victor's magic is very eye-catching, and he can directly enter the house through the inspection of the family knights outside without knowing it, and at least a mage of the third order or higher can do it.

Victor turned to look at the old man.

This burly old man, who was three meters tall, made him a little impressed.

Helnathan, an elderly bear man.

He was the steward of the Clevenna family and has survived for more than a hundred years.

He has been serving the Clevina family conscientiously, and has sent away three generations of the Clevina family.

Victor is that third generation.

As the guardian of the Clevenna family for generations, he was able to touch even a fourth-order mage.

"I didn't expect to wake you up, Helnerthan, I'm sorry."

"Where, I'm glad to see the head of the house come back, you plan to stay for a few days this time? I'll send someone to tidy up your room. ”

"No need Helnathan, go get some rest, I'll be back by tomorrow."

The butler listened to Victor's words, nodded, and bowed to him.

"Master of the house, remember to call me if you have something."

With that, the burly old man turned and left, without even a single footstep.

Seeing him leave, Victor re-unleashed his teleportation magic.

When Victor opened his eyes again, it was already another room.

The room is large, the room exudes a faint fragrance of flowers, and the gorgeous decorations around make people feel the extraordinary owner of this room.

It looks like a woman's room.

And the only woman who lives in the old mansion is......

"This is Leah's room."

Victor was sure.

actually teleported to Leah's bedroom, which Victor didn't expect.

Victor didn't care, though.

Leah didn't get into his room either, and when Victor was in the bedroom, the other party didn't even knock on the door and came in.

The house was also cleaned up very cleanly, and there were no traces of lying on the bed.

After all, these days, Liya has been living in the royal capital's house.

Suddenly, an impulse rose in Victor's heart.

It comes from an unstoppable impulse within the player.

In the game, players will search all the places they can rummage through in some accessible rooms so as not to miss any items.

What's more, Victor has a very collective habit, the kind that will never leave if he doesn't scavenge a place.

He closed his eyes and stopped the excitement in his heart.

It's not good, it's a girl's room after all.

He gave him a casual look and was about to leave.

Suddenly, Vega's one-eyed eye was fixed on a cabinet.

There was a magic circle that emitted a faint yellow light attached to the cabinet, and if it wasn't deliberately noticed, no one would have seen it at all.

"Victor, there."

Victor looked back and happened to see the cabinet under his desk.

It didn't take long for him to realize what it was.

"Magic locks?"

A magic circle that is sealed with magic power cannot open the items under the magic lock without unlocking the complex runes in it.

This is a bookcase with a magic lock? Is there something hidden in it?

"Do you want to open it and take a look?"

Vega was also curious, and straightened the bird's neck, staring there.

Victor had the idea that he might miss important items if he didn't open them, but if he thought about it, he might have Riah's privacy inside......

"Okay, it's open."

Victor: "......"

The circle quickly dissipated, and the magic lock was easily unlocked by Vega.

Victor couldn't help but ask.

"Don't you have the concept of respecting other people's privacy?"

"Huh? Are you kidding me? ”

Vega glanced at Victor disdainfully, and said lightly:

"The desire to open the cabinet is something that anyone can see."

Okay, Victor has to admit it.

Searching the entire room without missing a mistake is a common problem for players.

Nor was he avoided.

Victor silently apologized, but instinctively opened the drawer.

There are no special props in it, just a few small toy puppets that are worn out and sewn.

Deep in the drawer, there was a very old notebook, and the paper had also been yellowed.

Victor took it out with some curiosity and flipped through the page casually.

It was as if ancient memories were unabashedly announced in front of him.

'On November 6th, my father said that my brother had awakened a very powerful magical talent, and that a very powerful mage was about to appear in our family! Great, my brother will protect me for the rest of my life! ’

On November 7th, my brother seemed to be studying very hard, so tired! I want to help my brother become the best mage! But my brother will only scold me for getting in the way, how can I help my brother? ’

On November 8, I told my father about my troubles, and he told me that mage is a profession that needs a lot of money, so my brother will be very short of money. If I can make a lot of money, will I be able to help my brother? ’

Victor looked at the text on it, feeling a little ...... Complex.

There was only that on this page, so he flipped back a few more pages.

'On December 21st, it snowed again today, and I love it, so Mr. Helnathan took me to build a very, very big snowman! I showed the snowman to my brother, but he used his magic to break the snowman...... Is it that he doesn't like snowmen? ’

'December 22nd, today I made a mistake and accidentally soiled my brother's magic book, it was very expensive, and my brother scolded me angrily and punished me for standing in the snow, and I felt very cold. I'm sorry brother, it's my fault first. ’

'On December 23rd, I saw my brother again today, and I wanted to apologize, but he scolded me again...... He said he hated tears, shouldn't I cry, why can't I always satisfy my brother?

I'm so useless. ’

On the next page, there are trivial things.

Until January 1, there was no follow-up record in the diary.

Victor put down the diary, feeling a little heavy.

The reason behind the discord between the siblings between Victor and Leah is not mentioned in the game.

In the game, Leah's room is locked, and no player will be able to enter it.

As a result, the content of this diary has not been seen by the player.

"It feels like you were born before."

Vega said next to him, reading the contents of the diary as well.

Victor nodded, not retorting.

He didn't close the diary, his palm lit up, and a black pen appeared in his hand.

On the blank page of the diary, he drew a simple smiley face.

Fold the page into a corner, close the journal, and put it back in the cabinet.

Vega quietly watched Victor finish all this, and then heard Victor say:

"Re-lock the cupboard, Vega."

Vega complied, and re-locked the cabinet with her magic, so that no sign of opening it was visible from the outside.

Viktor turned and walked out the door, and Vega flapped her wings and followed Victor.

"Where are you going?"

"I said it before...... I'm interested in the grain merchant. ”

Victor only said this, and a teleportation circle appeared under his feet, which lit up slightly.

Vega hurriedly flew onto his shoulder, and the moment he touched Viktor's shoulder, a man and a bird disappeared.

……

"Finally got you!"

A group of hooded men caught Chur outside the wilderness.

Chull is a burly man, the kind of strong man who will be seen on the street and will be bypassed.

However, at this time, he was surrounded by a group of people.

Chull was so anxious that beads of sweat were on his forehead, and shouted:

"What about Miss Leah? I want to see Miss Leah! Why did you arrest me? ”

The hooded people around them sensed something was wrong.

Why is Chul shouting so loudly?

But no one would think about it so much, and the clear female voice sounded viciously.

"You'll see Miss Leah after we bring you back!"

Chull still said in that unconvinced look:

"I have to see Miss Leah! I have something to explain! ”

"Okay, what do you want to explain?"

Leah's cold voice suddenly sounded, and she didn't know when she appeared.

Beside her, there was Leon with only green pupils exposed.

Leah put her hands on her chest and looked at Chull coldly.

"There's a lot of money from our family, what, Chull, are you planning to flee back to the kingdom now?"

Chull looked at Ria and was about to say something, but saw Leah wave his hand.

Countless hooded men appeared around, drawing bows and arrows, waiting for Leah's order to pierce Churwan's arrow through the heart.

"I advise you, don't move."

"Otherwise, I'm not sure you'll have an extra arrow for breakfast tomorrow."

Chur's face was gloomy, as if he was in a desperate situation.

But suddenly, the corners of his mouth rose up, and he had a conspiracy to succeed.

Leon beside him quickly noticed his change and hurriedly shouted:

"Shoot the arrows!"

In an instant, countless arrows flew in the direction of Chur.

Suddenly, the arrow stopped in the air as if it had been resisted by some kind of barrier.

An astonishing barrier jerked up from the ground, and an astonishing sense of weakness instantly surged over everyone except Riah.

"Mana Block!?"

Leon sensed that something was wrong, and looked at her hands, within the confines of this barrier, she could not use the slightest bit of magic.

As a result, Chull was heard suddenly say:

"How does the Forbidden Demon Stone taste?"

"Originally, these things were prepared for Victor, but now they are used on his sister to implement the effect, which is not bad."

Leah was a little speechless.

Even in the current situation that seems to be at a disadvantage, she did not show the slightest panic.

"So what? I'm not a mage. ”

As a result, Chull was anxious when he heard this, and said dirtily at that exit:

"Fuck you! I really didn't know you were a second-order mage? ”

Hearing this, Leah's eyes suddenly narrowed.

She quietly stirred the mage's hand, but again to no avail.

"I have to admit that you have good means, you are more suitable as the lord of the Clavenna realm than Victor."

"You'll have to stay here today, though."

As he spoke, the barrier rippled a few times, and out of thin air several warriors with weapons came out.

"Within the barrier where magic cannot be used, a warrior who fights with qi and blood is undoubtedly your most difficult opponent to resist."

Chull laughed maniacally, and he also drew his weapon, ready to kill everyone in the barrier.

Lia yawned a little boredly.

"That's it?"

The knights who were ambushed around here were not thousands, if not hundreds, but she only needed to send a slight signal.

The iron cavalry of the cavalry will instantly tear apart the group of warriors in front of them.

But...... No one but her knew about it.

Leon looked a little worried, and she whispered to Leah:

"Miss Leah...... Please be prepared to escape. ”

"We will fight with our lives, and we will also open a way for you to leave."

With that, he pulled out the two daggers at his waist and prepared himself for battle.

Leah frowned, she was about to say something, but then, the mage's hand in her hand heated slightly.

Once the Mage's Hand is close to its mana source, the Mage's Hand will also seduce.

So......

"Leon, stand still."

Leah smiled confidently.

In the eyes of some disbelief from everyone, she said calmly.

"Someone came to pick us up."

Buzz——!

A fluorescent-blue circle suddenly lit up outside the barrier, and its vast range covered the entire barrier.

An astonishing aura of magic leaked out, and in just a split second, the circle ignored the barrier of the Forbidden Stone, teleporting everyone within the barrier except Chur and his men.

White light flashed, and when Leah opened her eyes again, they had been teleported to a hillside beyond the barrier.

Except for her, everyone looked around, slightly stunned.

It doesn't seem to be clear what is going on.

Leah took a few steps forward, and she looked down at the barrier not far away.

Inside, there is a familiar figure.

The man was dressed in a black trench coat with his back to her, and the fluorescence in his hand dissipated, indicating the teleportation magic he had just unleashed.

Victor's voice rang out from inside the barrier:

"The forbidden magic stone, which is a specialty of the kingdom, is very effective for mages, but it also has an obvious drawback."

"If the mage is not within the limit, he can use magic from a distance and act on the inside of the Forbidden Stone's limit."

"In other words, if I want to, just now, the forbidden magic stone barrier you set up will be instantly shattered by my magic."

Chull looked at the uninvited guest, clenched the blade in his hand, and stared cautiously at the visitor.

He questioned aloud:

"Who are you?"

After that, Victor bowed gracefully to him:

"I'm Victor."

"I heard, you're looking for me?"
