I, Viego, conquer Terra!

He could feel that the Curse of Ruin in his body was longing to grow, to be filled and overflowed.

That void was stirring, something inside it was gathering momentum, waiting for the Curse of Ruin in the body to provide it with "fuel".

The memories of the Ruined King were indeed affecting him.

Viego tried not to think about it, but the obsession from the former Ruined King that had lasted for a thousand years was still trying to invade his mind and soul, trying to change his will, shouting at him: "Bring back Isolde! !"

I always feel like I’ll blurt out some classic quote from the Ruined King at any time, like “I’ve lost my love forever, and everything I see is ruined!”

"What are you thinking about?" A cold female voice sounded in my ear.

Viego raised his head and looked at Ines, who was still staring at the campfire expressionlessly, as if she had not said anything at all, and smiled.

"I didn't think much of it. I just felt that one shouldn't destroy oneself for unrequited love."

I, Viego, will never be a bootlicker!

What obsession, what Isolde, get out of here!

Chapter 14 Inès: Am I prettier or is W prettier?

Viego sat with Inès by the campfire all night.

Inès sat there with her knees hugged and her eyes closed the entire night.

Viego thought she was superhuman.

At dawn, Inès opened her eyes.

The first words I heard were - "Ines, do you know anything about hemorrhoids?"

"?" Ines' expression was cold: "I know, what's wrong?"

"You sit like this all night without lying down. Aren't you afraid of yourself..." Viego noticed Ines's quietly clenched fists and wisely stopped talking.

If I continue talking, I'm afraid this cold-faced, vicious woman will cut off my tongue.

"It's time to leave." Ines stood up and glanced at Viego coldly. "Stay with me, don't say anything unnecessary, and don't do anything unnecessary, or I will kill you."

"Okay?" Viego followed her. "Where are we going now? Where's W? Will she come with us?"

"I didn't expect you to care about her so much?" Ines sneered. "She and I will go our separate ways. You won't have the chance to meet her again in the short term. If you want to say goodbye, I can give you 20 minutes."

Viego was somewhat tempted, not because he was reluctant to give up W, but mainly because from what Hedley said, a very intense battle might ensue. If he could take the opportunity to take a few more breaths of W, perhaps he would have a better chance of surviving on the battlefield.

But after thinking about it, he shook his head and rejected Ines' proposal: "Forget it, I won't go."

"Oh why?"

"It's nothing, she's just still angry. If I go over now, she will pin me to the ground and beat me up." Viego had no doubt at all that W would pull out a dagger and stab him.

We had agreed to go back at night, but ended up going with Ines, a captain who was clearly at odds with W, leaving W "alone in an empty room"...

Based on Viego's understanding of W, she must be extremely angry with him right now. If he appeared in front of her at this moment, she would probably pin him to the ground and beat him up.

——Maybe they would even threaten to have his penis smashed and demand that he agree to some unequal treaties.

Like, you’re not allowed to follow Ines, or you’re not allowed to follow Ines, and you’re not allowed to follow Ines?

W is also a possessive cockroach...Sarkaz.

"Heh." Ines curled her lips and chuckled, seeming to find Viego's answer amusing.

Although the smile was very faint and only lasted for a brief moment, Viego still caught it.

Viego always felt that Ines's emotions regarding W's matter were much more intense than usual.

"Why don't you smile more?" Viego watched Ines's expression return to its cold state. "Captain Ines looks very pretty when she smiles."

"Really?" Inès looked over meaningfully. "So who do you think has a prettier smile, me or that woman W?"

Viego's face froze, and he felt a big blood-red "Danger" word appear above his head!

At this moment, he wanted to slap himself twice in the face for what he did in the last second. Why couldn't he control this mouth that loved to talk nonsense?

This is bad. Here comes a life-threatening question. How should I answer it?

Moreover, why did you suddenly turn to such a question? ? ?

Inès, where is your cold and aloof personality? Why would you ask such a question like a jealous little woman? ? ?

Viego read a hint of satisfaction from Ines' expression.

He felt sad.

Damn, this woman doesn’t care what the answer is, or whether she or W is prettier.

She just wanted to use this question to shut herself up and stop bothering her.

Sure enough, the next second, Inès spoke:

"Can't answer? Wait until you have thought of the answer, and the answer must satisfy me. In addition, you only have three chances. If you answer incorrectly..."

This is a fatal question, and Viego is very familiar with it.

Before he traveled through time, he had been tortured many times by that bad ex-girlfriend with similar questions.

If he said Ines was pretty, Ines might not make things difficult for him now, but she would definitely tell W his answer and then watch the show from the side.

Although that crazy woman W doesn't care at all whether Viego thinks she is pretty or not, if Viego chooses Ines instead of her, she will definitely take the opportunity to get angry and make Viego support her unwaveringly in the future...

And if you say W is good-looking, then Inès has reason to be angry.

If you say that both of them are good-looking, then it would be even simpler - they would be directly judged as scumbags with sweet words and a smooth tongue, and then neither side would be happy.

In short, if the other party is deliberately making things difficult for you, no matter how you answer, the answer will be wrong.

For a woman, especially one who has the upper hand over a man, no matter how unreasonable she is, it is "reasonable".

Viego raised his hands in surrender and made a zipper-like motion on his mouth, indicating that he would not ask her any questions for the next while.

He sighed silently in his heart, hating himself for always speaking dirty words without thinking.

Fortunately, he never said anything like he wanted to touch Ines' legs. Although he really wasn't a leg control freak and didn't want to touch Ines' legs, it would be terrible if he accidentally said it someday.

Ines is a really fierce woman, even more fierce than W. Viego can feel that she is the type who would really resort to violence.

As for W... Although W threatened fiercely, she never actually took any real action. She seemed to be just a stern person. Viego felt that the crazy woman had always been very tolerant of him, and he didn't know why.

After a while, Inès' team members gathered and a mercenary came to report that they could set off.

At this time, Ines' attention was really diverted away from Viego. She no longer thought about teaching him a lesson and asking him to stop bothering her.

Viego also breathed a sigh of relief.

The next whole day was spent on the road.

At dusk, the team stopped in the wilderness and began to set up camp.

Ines still built a bonfire alone outside the camp, and Viego still followed her.

As night fell, a bonfire was lit.

Inès glanced at Viego. "You can speak now."

She said, "I am satisfied that you did not bother me today."

Viego noticed Inès's uncharacteristically gentle attitude and instantly became alert.

I smell the scent of PUA.

Inès, I didn't expect you to be a bad woman?!

It turns out that people with the surname Yi are not good people.

Get out of here! Don’t even think about PUAing me into your bootlicker!

Inès did have similar thoughts.

Viego's performance today made her realize that this man could actually obey commands and orders, but she just needed to have something to hold over him.

So Inès decided to use both kindness and force, and use some simple tricks.

But her purpose was actually just to make Viego talk less.

There are simply no more ideas.

This wave, this wave is bad woman PTSD.



Chapter 15 Oh my god, Ines and W are fighting over a man? !

Viego thought that W would come to his house to question him and ask him why he ran away with Inès.

But I didn't expect this moment to come so soon.

On the evening of the second day after he set out with Ines, W came to his door.

Viego followed Ines and still built a bonfire outside the camp, and the two of them sat by the bonfire.

Ever since Ines "praised" Viego the night before, Viego no longer wanted to talk to Ines.

Inès could feel that Viego inexplicably had a different kind of vigilance and...distantness towards her?

She didn't know the reason, but it was a good thing - at least she wouldn't be bothered by Viego's questions anymore.

Shortly after the bonfire was lit, a white-haired Sarkaz female mercenary came to the door.

She stood behind Viego, as if putting her arm around his shoulders and hugging him in a slightly intimate manner - if you ignore the dagger at Viego's neck.

W smiled and said, "Viego, it seems that following Inès makes you very happy?"

Inès was staring at the campfire, as if she didn't see the two people at all.

"...I didn't say anything." Viego sighed helplessly. "W, you know, I have no choice. They don't trust me, including you..."

"Stop giving me excuses." W interrupted Viego, her voice full of laughter, but Viego could sense that she was still angry. "Tell me, Viego, have you decided how to die?"

"Uh..." Viego looked up. "W, can you let me die of old age? Or suffocate me in your..."

W pinched Viego's jaw, interrupting him from speaking. He leaned close to Viego's ear and whispered through gritted teeth, "If you dare to say anything perverted, I will cut off your tongue right away...!"

Viego raised his eyebrows. I didn't mean to say anything perverted, did you ask me to choose a way to die?

"Let him go, W." Ines' cold voice sounded. "Watching you guys playing around is just a waste of time. I have a question for you. After you ask, you can take Viego away and do anything with him. Just don't stay here and bother me."

"Are you ordering me around?" W looked up and said with a smile, "Captain Ines is so powerful. Oh, I'm so scared. When you took my people away, why didn't you think you might be disturbed?"

"Your man?" Ines's golden eyes glanced at him coldly. "W, you are also a member of the mercenary group. Hedley assigned Viego to my team, so he is my man now."

Viego: “???” Hey, why doesn’t anyone ask for my opinion? Why are you suddenly snatching people away? I’m clearly nobody’s!

I'm so angry that I'm crying. When will Viego be able to become an independent individual instead of living as an appendage of you women!

But Viego also knew that neither W nor Ines really cared about him that much.

He was just a fuse that was unfortunately involved in the war between two tit-for-tat women. It would be the same for anyone else...

"Oh? Then when Hedley came to me, why did he tell me that 'Ines thought Viego would be more suitable to join her team'?" W taunted:

"Don't you think so, Captain Inès? That's really strange. Why would Hedley tell me that?"

"So the fact that you keep him by your side every day and sleep by the same campfire is a sign that Captain Ines doesn't want Viego to join?"

Viego felt that W was good at using weird and funny characters, which should be very effective against a person like Ines who had a cold and arrogant personality.

As expected, Inès frowned: "W, you are being unreasonable. You know exactly why I am doing this."

"I know? How can I know Captain Ines's wisdom? I am just an uneducated and rough person who doesn't understand so many principles."

W sneered: "You stole my people and ran away, and now you still want to say that I am being unreasonable? I really didn't expect that Captain Ines would be so dedicated to a 'Sarkaz' mercenary group?"

W deliberately put emphasis on the three words "Sarkaz".

Inès took a deep breath and suppressed her annoyance: "... Hedley never asks about the past of his teammates, but I am different, Viego..."

"You are indeed different from us." W interrupted her.

"......" Ines stood up from the campfire and stared deeply at W. "You want to cause trouble?"

"Really? How come I don't know?" W looked innocent, staring at Ines, with a smile on his face that became brighter and brighter. "I'm just telling the truth, isn't it?"
