My villain wants to save himself, but the yandere heroine disagrees

Seeing this, everyone certainly didn't want to be here

Instead of wasting time, they formed their own teams and headed deep into the snowfield.

It was not until the evening when most people had left that Orson prepared to leave with Olivia.

Not far from the post station, Orson suddenly saw a figure walking alone in front of him, and the figure looked familiar.

"Elsa?"

Orson asked subconsciously, causing Olivia beside him to glare at him helplessly.

The person in front heard Orson calling her and turned around.

"Orson, and... Olivia? Why haven't you two left yet?" Elsa looked at the two of them with a puzzled expression on her face.

"Ah...something happened, so I was delayed for a while." Orson explained, and then asked in return: "Elsa, why did you get here only now?"

"Well, because I just left not long ago." Elsa said this, touched the back of her head, and said awkwardly, "It seems that no one wants to team up with me, so I had to leave alone."

"Ah? Why is no one willing to team up with you, Elsa?" At this time, Olivia, who was standing next to Orson, spoke in confusion.

The other party is the princess of the empire! If you team up with her and get her attention, you will definitely have a good future, if not great wealth.

Even if we put aside her identity as an imperial princess, the strength of a seventh-level magician is there. She is already quite powerful and a formidable combat force. How could no one be willing to team up with her?

Thinking of this, Olivia narrowed her eyes.

I always feel like something is wrong. Could it be that Elsa deliberately pretended to be like this in front of Orson?

The purpose is to get close to Orson?

When Olivia thought of this possibility, she immediately became alert.

No matter what the other party's purpose is, it seems a bit difficult to deal with.

Seeing Olivia asking this, Elsa had no choice but to explain her own thoughts:

"It seems that because I am a princess, they are worried that if I am around, I will take credit for their work. If this causes my dissatisfaction, I might even hold a grudge against them. So in order to avoid trouble, they simply don't come to me to form a team."

"So that's the reason." Orson nodded, showing his understanding. "I thought that with your status as a princess, Elsa, you would have a group of loyal servants following you, even if they would sacrifice their own interests to make you happy."

Orson was almost about to say the word "dog licker".

"Pfft." Elsa was amused by this statement, "Even if there is such a person, he will definitely not show up at a time like this."

"Yeah, a friend in need is a friend indeed." Orson said subconsciously.

But then he realized that this statement was not quite right.

What exactly is the so-called "true love"?

Sure enough, after Orson realized something was wrong, Olivia put her hand behind Orson's back as if by reflex.

"Of course, I mean the friendship between classmates!" Orson explained immediately.

Although the explanation made the atmosphere even stranger, it still played a certain role.

At least Olivia's hands weren't on Orson anymore.

"Then, Elsa, do you want to come with us next?" Olivia walked forward and took the initiative to invite Elsa.

"Eh? Is that okay?" Elsa was stunned, then asked in surprise: "I... I won't disturb you, right?"

"Of course not." Olivia smiled and shook her head.

"After all, sometimes, some people are afraid to say something, so they can only let another person say it, right, Orson?"

Olivia turned her head and looked at Orson with a sly smile, as if she could see through Orson's heart.

"Well, it's okay. It's better to say that you can help us a lot, Elsa."

"Well, thank you for your guidance." Elsa said this and thanked the two of them quickly.

"Wait a moment."

At this time, Olivia called a halt again.

"After all, this training involves academic credits, and none of us are the type to earn credits. Let's make a rule. When we report the contents of the training, we are not allowed to make false reports. Whoever discovers the information about the Laplanders' beliefs will get the credit."

"I'm fine." Elsa nodded.

Orson agreed.

"Okay, then, welcome aboard, Elsa." Olivia said this, then suddenly leaned forward and whispered a few words into Elsa's ear.

Elsa was stunned for a moment, then her cheeks turned red and she quickly shook her head like a rattle.

"How is that possible! I'm not that kind of person!"

"Then I feel relieved." Olivia nodded with satisfaction and returned to Orson.

Orson only saw two people suddenly whispering to each other, but he had no idea what they were talking about.

However, he didn't want to gossip about the content of the two girls' private conversation.

"It's getting late. Let's find a place to camp and leave tomorrow."

"Yeah."*2

Chapter 8: Snowfield Village

A week later, somewhere outside the snowfield.

Three figures in fur coats were walking in the snow.

It gets dark much earlier in Lapland than in other areas. The daylight here is only eight hours, so all activities need to be completed as quickly as possible.

For the locals here, they may have gotten used to it, but for the Imperial College students who came here from other places, they need some time to adapt.

Compared to the thick snow in winter that was enough to cover the knees, the snow here is now just above the ankles, so the walking conditions are already quite good.

"Ha..." Among the three people, the last one stopped first.

"I...I can't do it anymore. I've been walking for too long today."

She raised her head and looked at the two people in front of her who had also stopped.

"Leet, Lena, let's find a place to rest. I can't walk anymore."

Yes, the trio is Litt, Lena and Lianka. As the weakest and most pampered of the three, Lianka is obviously the least adaptable to survival in the wild.

Today, we set out at dawn and walked for four hours.

They walked very fast, so their energy was depleted even faster. Even though Lianka already had the strength of the sixth level, she had no choice but to admit defeat at this moment.

"Okay." Li Te nodded, then rose into the sky and looked at the surrounding terrain.

After confirming that there was a sheltered spot nearby, Lit took the two of them there.

After clearing an area of ​​snow, the three set up camp on the spot.

"Is there enough food?" Lianka sat by the fire, stretched out her hands to warm them, and looked at Litt who was frowning as he counted the supplies in his backpack, and asked curiously.

"Yeah." Li Te nodded. "We have been busy traveling these days, and we haven't killed many animals on the road. With the food we brought when we set out, we probably only have less than five days of food left."

Hearing this, Lianka lowered her head in silence.

Of course she knew that she was holding the team back, but she didn't know what to do to make up for her guilt.

After all, if you think about it carefully, she doesn't seem to be as outstanding as Billet and Lena.

Especially in the snowfield, without the help of her family and status, she was nothing.

Even during the daily hunting, it was Litt and Lena who obtained the most prey.

It wasn't that Lianka couldn't even catch the prey, but she had no experience in surviving in the wild. She had no idea where the prey could be found. She was walking aimlessly in the vast snowfield, and it was a blessing that she didn't get lost.

"Let's take a break today. Following the direction pointed by the hunter, we should be able to find the village in two or three days." Half an hour later, Litt roasted a few wild rabbits and handed one to Lianka.

Lena also divided the broth cooked by the fire into three portions.

Lianka looked at the food in front of her, was silent for a while, and then said: "Well... I'd better not eat it. These are what you guys hunted..."

"It's already this late, why are you still talking nonsense?" Litt didn't listen to Lianka and took the initiative to hand the rabbit to her.

"Okay, let's eat. We are getting closer to our destination. We can stay in the village temporarily. Anything is fine."

"That's right, Sister Lianka, if you abandon us, Lena will be very angry."

"Yeah..." Lianka nodded.

They rested for another two hours, walked a distance as it was getting dark, and then set up camp on a leeward slope.

When night came, everyone took turns to keep watch. Lianka sat by the fire, bowed her head and thought.

Just at this moment, she heard a strange noise coming from the side.

It sounded like something was stepping on the snow, causing the snow to sink.

She quickly turned her head, only to see a pair of glowing eyes staring at her in the darkness.

Is it a wolf?

Thinking of this, she placed her hand on the hilt of the sword at her waist. If the other party dared to approach her, she would just treat it as a bonus for today.

However, the other party just stood there and looked at Lianka.

Lianka's nerves were extremely tense. At this moment, footsteps were heard in the distance.

"Hello, are you from outside the city?"

A man's voice sounded, and then he approached.

In the light of the fire, the man's slightly weathered face appeared in front of Lianka. He was a tall and strong middle-aged man, wrapped in a lot of clothes, and at this moment he was carrying a moose of about the same size as him on his back.

The owner of those glowing eyes was actually a northern sled dog.

Now he came closer, too, and sat by the fire, wagging his tail at Lianka.

Seeing that the other party was a human who could actively communicate, Lianka relaxed her vigilance a lot, and Litt and Lena who were sleeping in the tent were also woken up at this moment.

"Oh, it turns out to be three little girls." The middle-aged man said this with a simple and honest smile.

"I'm a hunter here. You can call me Olaf. Our village is nearby. Do you want to visit us?" Olaf said, pointing to the moose behind him. "I chased this big guy a little far today. It was dark when I came back. But I know the roads here and know where there are no wolves. Do you want to come with me?"

Litt and Lena also woke up at this time. They listened to each other's words and looked at each other, still with vigilance in their eyes.

It is certainly not impossible for there to be a village in the harsh snowfield. After all, humans are social animals and always stick together.

However, this kind of village needs to migrate frequently because the number of animals in one area is limited. When there is not enough food, they will migrate to find a new area to settle down.

"But it's so late now, and there will be strong winds on the snowfield at night. How about you stay here tonight and set off after dawn?" Lianka suggested at this time.

"Oh, it's okay. Look, here." As he said this, he pointed to the northern sled dog beside him.

"Her name is Lado. She has walked this road many times and knows the way back even at night. Don't worry. It's only two or three hours away from our village. You can rest there. We have a lot of vacant houses. It's better to sleep in a house than in the wild, right?"

After hearing what Olaf said, Lena and Lianka immediately thought of following him. Although Litt felt a little suspicious, he nodded.

Both she and Lianka are quite strong, not to mention Lena. Even if the other party is cheating, the three of them can easily resolve it.

So, led by the hunter Olaf, the three followed him to the village where he lived.

Chapter 9: Check-in to Snow Village

Orson took Olivia and Elsa towards the academy deep in Lapland. On the seventh day, they finally found a village.

The entire village was covered in snow. If Orson hadn't used his magic carpet to rise into the sky and observe the surrounding terrain, he might not have been able to find the village.

When the few people approached the village, the beasts of burden domesticated by the villagers made a dull low growl, warning the villagers.

This beast of burden resembles a rhino, but is covered with a large amount of fine, thick hair to keep its body warm in such cold conditions.

Sure enough, not long after the cry, the doors of several wooden houses were opened, and some men in thick coats walked out. They were holding bows and arrows or axes in their hands, and they looked at Orson and his companions with unfriendly expressions.

Orson was the first to react. He raised his hands towards the other party from a distance, indicating that he had no hostility, and then slowly walked forward.

Seeing this, the other party also hurriedly sent a few people forward.

Even after seeing Orson's action, the other party still remained vigilant and still held the weapon tightly in his hand.

Not until they were within ten steps did both sides stop.
