It’s getting harder and harder to be a villain these days

Yura said a lot in one breath, and it sounded like more than just what she had heard.

Hearing this, Vickery looked at her strangely, "Did you just hear this?"

"It's nothing to do but read a book." Youla snorted coldly.

A long time passed after this chat. Weekley saw that the sky outside the window was almost dark, and the three of them stopped next to a small forest.

Nim's voice came from the front of the carriage.

"Mr. Vickery, Miss Yola, there is a cave in front of us. I think we can spend the night here."

Nim was asking for Vickrey and Yora's opinions.

After hearing this, Yola and Vickrey looked at each other, and then Vickrey stood up and opened the door curtain, and saw the little girl sitting in front of the carriage door.

This little girl wearing gray cloth armor was sitting at the door with a straight face, turning to look at Vickery who had just walked out.

The little girl was very cute, the kind of girl who wanted to be hugged and loved, but there was a chilling look on her face that made people feel distant.

Serious and full of murderous intent, his subordinates have killed many illegals at a glance.

It has a different kind of beauty...

Vickery nodded at Nimue, and then looked at the cave not far from the roadside.

This is a small road, with woods on both sides of the road, and the cave is in the hidden part of the woods.

If it weren't for the fact that Vickery, as a wizard, had much better eyesight than ordinary people, he would really not be able to see the entrance to the cave.

Obviously Nimue's strength is not average, but I just don't know what kind of strength Nimue has.

It's not too weak anyway.

"It's probably in that cave. I just don't know if there's anyone there."

Vickery murmured.

After hearing this, Nimu set up the carriage and rushed there, "It doesn't matter if there are people, Mr. Vickery, as long as you choose this place, I will take care of the rest."

Look, look at this execution ability.

Vickery really envied Yekarina and her subordinates.

Of course he does. As the eldest son of the Pod family, he has the ability to mobilize the meritorious knights of his family, but compared to the scale of the organization around the emperor, it is still far behind.

I guess it will be fine once my own academy is established.

The carriage went up the mountain path next to it. It had to be said that the mountain road was really bumpy. Vickrey, who was sitting in the carriage, felt like he was jumping up and down.

And Youla was also holding her chest and weighing it. It was a pity that Youla was still wearing the armor, otherwise this scene would have made Vickrey a little unnatural.

While still on the road, Vickery checked the contents of the carriage.

I heard from Sam that these things were all personally selected for Vickrey by Emperor Ekarina.

This made Vickery a little flattered.

What kind of person can be treated like this? Let the empress of a country choose her travel luggage herself.

The place where Vickery and Yula sat was about two meters long and about 1.5 meters wide, and there was a space one meter long and one meter wide behind to put things. This was already a quite large carriage, which could easily be compared with some Compared to trucks.

Of course, this has the function of a truck.

Vickrey sat down towards the warehouse curiously, and he discovered a lot of things while tinkering back and forth.

Not to mention pots and pans, there are even two buckets of water, some smoked barbecue and dried vegetables, and some long-lasting whole grain flatbreads.

In addition, Weekly also saw armor, and...

"Ok?"

Vickery reached out from a pile of debris and took out a long sword.

This feel...Weikeli weighed it twice and knew immediately that it was his Oliha steel sword.

In addition to the Oliha steel sword, there is also a brand new wand with a circle of paper wrapped around it.

This wand is not the wand that Vickery customized before, because the shape is completely different. This one looks more noble and more powerful.

"strangeness?"

Since Yekarina can take out her Oliha steel sword from her own home, why not bring her own wand too, maybe because she feels that her wand is not as good as hers?

Vickery opened the note and took a look at it, and then he realized something.

Chapter 209 Letter from Ekarina

"Weikeli, this journey is going to be hard on you. I specially snatched for you the staff that the great wizard of the palace has collected for many years. The name of this staff is called Demon Fire. It can greatly improve your fire magic. Destructive power."

"Although this wand is very rare and powerful, there is only one of it in the entire continent, so you should not use it casually during your travels. It will be easily recognized by some people, which may cause you to encounter some dangers."

"Also, we have secretly paid attention to the students here. If there are people with better talents, we will notify the academy to reserve them for you. There is nothing else to say. In short, I wish you a prosperous career in Vickrey. .”

"Ekarina, kiss me!"

The small note was filled with densely packed small fonts, but even with limited space, the words were still very beautiful, and after the entire paper was almost used up, there was still a part at the back that was painted over.

It can be seen that the person who wrote the note may have something else to say, but he seemed to feel that the last word he wrote was not suitable, so he scribbled it with a pen into a mess.

This reminds Vickrey of a word called "Paper is short but love is long..."

No, no, she is the empress of the empire, how could she have a long-term relationship with him?

The note still carries Ekarina's unique fragrance, as well as a simple smell of ink.

"What are you looking at?"

Yora looked at Vickrey and couldn't help but ask, but at that moment Vickrey happened to use fire magic and burned the note into dust.

Vickrey didn't expect Youla to look over. If Youla had spoken earlier, he would have shown the note to her. After all, there wasn't much written on it.

The atmosphere at the scene was a bit awkward.

But Youla obviously didn't want to care so much. She couldn't help but frown when she looked at Vickrey, "It doesn't matter if you don't want to say it. I think you also have your own difficulties."

What a considerate girl, Vickrey knew that her original vision was correct.

Squeak-!

With a trembling of the carriage, the carriage stopped at the entrance of the cave.

Weekley pushed open the door curtain and jumped out of the carriage. He looked at the deep cave and couldn't help but say, "It's a pretty good place. How did you discover this kind of place?"

Although we were walking on a less traveled path, with trees and steep slopes in the mountains on both sides, most people wouldn't pay attention to this kind of place.

Let alone hiding in a place like this.

Hearing this, Nimue answered truthfully: "Back to Mr. Weekley, my innate skill is Eagle Eye, which can greatly improve my eyesight."

"That's a pretty good archer skill."

Yora also jumped out of the car, and she heard the conversation between Vickery and Nimue.

"Thank you, Miss Youla, for your compliment. I'm still far behind you."

As she spoke, Nim turned around and climbed into the car, "I'm going to get some food."

After Nim climbed into the car, Vickery and Yora came to the entrance of the cave.

"Someone has been here before, and they come often..."

Before the two of them entered the cave, Yura spoke.

Hearing this, Vickery also nodded, "The stone in front of the cave entrance is surprisingly smooth, and there are also white scratches left on the ground when heavy objects are dragged across it."

As he said this, he squatted on the ground and took a closer look. "There is not much dust in this mark. At most, this mark was left the day before yesterday."

"I hope it won't happen to me. I don't want to run into any trouble..." Weekley flexed his wrist and walked into the cave first, with Yola following behind him.

At this time, Nim also came over carrying pots and pans. In her arms, she also carried a few pieces of potatoes and dried meat, as well as three large dry food pancakes for easy storage.

After putting all the things in the cave, Nim turned around and went to look for firewood again.

This little girl seems to be very good at this kind of thing. She knows what to do at certain times, which is much better than Vickery.

Weekley found a place and used magic to clean it up. It was a huge stone over two meters long, as high as Weekley's calf.

It wasn't actually very dirty, it looked like someone had been sitting on it.

But Vickery was a germophobe. Even if others had taken care of it, he still cleaned it up in his own way before he endured the mysophobia and sat down.

Yora sat one meter away from Vickrey. She lowered her head and took out a piece of white cloth and gently wiped her long sword.

The atmosphere at the scene was somewhat silent. Vickrey had never gotten along with Yula like this before.

"No matter what you want to do, Weekly, it seems to be a very important matter. Even His Majesty has given you a lot of help."

"I don't know why you called me to join you. Anyway, as long as it is for the empire, there is no doubt that I will do my best."

Yula's voice broke the silence.

She brought up the subject again, twice in the carriage.

Vickery understands that too.

Anyone who is approached in such a mysterious way will be a little confused.

And Yula

He was just waiting for a word from Vickrey.

She wanted to know clearly whether what she was doing was for the empire.

So after Yula finished speaking, she spoke again, "Weikeli, can you tell me? I know you have some difficulties and there are some things that are inconvenient for you to say, but I still want to know who I am doing for?"

"For the world."

Vickery answered without thinking.

There are some things he doesn't need to hide.

But there are some things he must hide.

In fact, many people don't understand why Weekley kept it a secret.

But judging from the situation when Couch came to hunt down Vickrey, the more people knew, the faster they would die.

Just like Vickery, he knew a lot of things, so he was targeted by the old gods.

Others were not targeted by the old gods, because those people basically knew nothing.

Judging from this convenience, Vickery doesn't want some people to know about these people. The closer people are to Vickery, the more he doesn't want them to know.

"For the whole world?"

Hear what Vickery said.

Yura couldn't help but stopped wiping her sword.

What does this mean, the world is going to be destroyed?

How can it be!

But...Weikeli didn't look like he was joking. He basically never made any jokes.

After thinking about it, Yula decided to believe Vickrey.

If it is to protect the world, it is actually no different from the concept of protecting the empire.

The world is gone and the empire will definitely cease to exist...

"Mr. Vickery, Miss Yora, let's start dinner."

Soon Nim walked in from outside the cave, carrying a lot of firewood and even a few cut-off small trees.

Nim placed the matches in the middle of the cave, then took out the flint and steel from her arms.

Chapter 210 Encountering Adventurers

At this moment, Vickery walked up to her, squatted down and stretched out his hand.

A burst of flame ignited the firewood in front of him.

"thanks......"

Nim's hands holding the flint froze.

Then Vickery returned to his seat and began to look at the book he picked up from Nakuchi yesterday.
