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

Then, he noticed the blood and torn clothes on Litt's body and looked at the two of them in surprise.

"Master Litt, what's wrong with you?!" As he said this, he looked at Orson, whose clothes were relatively clean but stained with some blood.

"Master Orson, this..."

"Uncle Albert, this matter is rather complicated, but what I can tell you is that Litt is fine." Orson said this and looked at Litt standing beside him.

"Well, Uncle Albert, I'm fine." Lit also nodded.

"Oh my God, luckily you are okay, Master Lit." Albert held his forehead depressedly. "If anything happened to you, Master Lit, I would be heartbroken."

"I'm sorry, Uncle Albert, for making you worry." Litt smiled helplessly, then followed Orson upstairs.

"Lite, go back to your room and clean yourself up first. I'll go talk to my father." Orson said this, opened Litt's door, then patted Litt on the back and motioned him to come in.

Li Te nodded, then turned and went into the house.

Just at this moment, the maid Vivian also came over.

Seeing the blood stains on Orson's clothes, she covered her mouth in surprise.

Then he trotted up and looked around at Orson to make sure he was fine.

"Master Orson, what are you doing..."

"It's okay, this blood is not mine." Orson shook his head, then took out two lunch boxes from the storage ring and handed them to Vivian.

"Here, this is the lunch box I asked you to prepare for lunch today. I've finished eating it now. It tastes very good." Orson said with a smile. "By the way, I have to go to my father's place. During this time, please see if Li Te needs any help."

"Okay." Vivian nodded after hearing that.

Orson then turned and went into the house to change his clothes.

"By the way, Vivian." Before entering the house, he suddenly remembered something and looked at the maid.

"What's wrong, Master Orson?"

"Thank you for your hard work during this period. I asked you to take care of me and Li Te by yourself."

"It's okay. It's not hard at all." Vivian said this with a smile.

"After a while, when Li Te and I go to the Imperial College, you will have some free time. Then you can have a good rest."

Upon hearing this, Vivian was stunned for a moment, and then nodded silently.

Yes, in a while, the young masters will go to college, and then this house will become deserted again.

For some reason, Vivian's mood became a little depressed.

After changing his clothes, Orson went to Lucius' room. After taking a deep breath at the door, he knocked on it.

"Come in." Lucius's majestic voice came from inside the door.

Then, Orson opened the door and walked into the room.

"Orson, why did you come back so late today?" Lucius seemed to be looking at some documents. He looked up at Orson and continued to work hard.

"Father, Li Te has killed a beast with a strength of about level three in the nearby forest."

"Oh." Lucius nodded, and then paused.

"You, what did you just say?" He raised his head, stared at Orson, and asked word by word.

Orson repeated what he had just said.

Lucius stood up suddenly, startling Orson.

"Is this true?"

"Yes." Orson nodded. "Today I took Lit to the forest and left him there alone, just to see if he could explode in this desperate situation."

"Then, as expected, he exploded and killed the third-level wolf king."

Lucius's hands trembled slightly. He sat down excitedly and then smiled with relief.

"Well, Orson, you did a great job."

"It's Lit's turn. He lived up to our expectations." Orson also smiled. "This way, it will be much easier for Lit to pass the entrance exam of the Imperial College. The next step is to see what position Lit can get in the qualifying round."

The so-called qualifying competition refers to the 800 students who have passed the entrance test and the 200 students nominated by the nobles, a total of 1,000 people. They are ranked according to their rankings. Students with lower rankings can challenge students with higher rankings, and if the other party does not accept, the rankings of both parties will be exchanged.

Each student has three chances to challenge higher-ranked students. The qualifying round will start on the second day after the entrance test results are released. All students must be present, otherwise they will be deemed to have given up their admission qualifications.

"As for the qualifying round, based on the strength that Lit has shown now, he should be at least at the upper-middle level." Orson thought for a moment and then said.

Now the development of the plot has gradually deviated from its original track, and even Orson himself has begun to wonder where the future is headed.

Everyone talks about the butterfly effect, but Orson's action has gone beyond the scope of the butterfly effect. It can basically be said that it has changed the entire world line.

I hope that the world line will not converge on me in the future.

Otherwise, after all the efforts, it is still difficult.

To escape death would be too clownish.

"Orson." Lucius looked at Orson and said, "Although I don't know what your ambition is, even if you don't want to inherit the position of Duke, I hope you won't announce to the public that you have withdrawn from the succession."

What Lucius said makes sense, because at present, Litt does not have the reputation to become the heir of the Stranik family. If Orson announces that he will give up his inheritance rights at this time, it is hard not to wonder whether there is some conspiracy within the family.

This is not good for the reputation of the entire family.

By then, it is more likely that someone with ulterior motives will use the news of Orson giving up his inheritance rights to attack the family.

"I know, father." Orson nodded. He naturally knew this, otherwise he would have announced the news directly at the beginning of the family gathering.

"You are a smart kid, and the one that I, an old man, am most proud of." Lucius said with relief when he saw Orson nod. "Although I feel very guilty towards Lit, I have never regretted exchanging you with Lit."

"No matter what, you and Li Te are my good children."

"Thank you for taking care of Leeteuk all this time. Next, think more about yourself and what you really want."

"If you need any help, just tell your family. If you think you still want to inherit my position, I will still let you and Li Te compete fairly."

Originally, Lucius still traditionally believed that blood ties were the bond that maintained aristocratic family ties, but after seeing Orson and Litt, his view changed.

At least, he didn't have to treat Orson like he did with his adopted son.

No matter what outsiders say, Orson is his own son.

"Thank you very much, father." Orson bowed his head to express his gratitude.

Chapter 26: Omlit

"Oh, Orson." Lucius realized something at this moment. "You just said there are level 3 beasts in the nearby forest?"

"Ah, yes." Orson also remembered. "Actually, there is another reason why I came to see you this time, father, and that is to ask about this matter."

"Father, you used to organize troops to go into the mountains and forests to eliminate wild beasts every year. However, that forest is not far from Antica City, but a third-level beast appeared. I wonder if you are aware of this situation, father?"

"I really don't know, maybe I missed it before..." Lucius said, patted his head, and then looked up at Orson. "Well, Orson, you take a group of troops into the forest tomorrow to encircle and suppress the beasts. We must wipe them out before they harm the people."

He then handed Orson the token to call up the army.

"Understood. I'll follow your orders." Orson said this, took the token, bowed respectfully, and then left the room.

After leaving Lucius' room, Orson was approached by Mary's servant Randall.

"Master Orson, the lady is looking for you." Randall said this and pointed to Mary's study.

"Okay." Orson nodded, and then he and Randall came to the door of the study, and then Randall took the initiative to open the door for Orson.

"Please come in, Master Orson. Madam has been waiting for a long time."

"Yeah." Orson nodded and walked into the study.

"Mother, are you looking for me?" Orson asked Mary, who was staring out the window with her back to him.

"Well, you came back quite late today. I heard that you and Li Te went out together?"

"I took Leeteuk to play in the nearby forest."

"I'm afraid it's more than just playing?" Mary turned around and stared at Orson. "When Litt came back, he was covered in blood and his clothes were torn. Do you call this playing?"

"Besides, as a mother, is it too much for me to care about my child? Orson, why did you hide it from me?"

"..." Orson lowered his head and was silent for a while, then slowly said: "I'm sorry, Lit is actually fine. I made up this lie in order not to worry mother. Please punish me, mother."

"Punishment?" Mary smiled. "How could I bear to punish my beloved son?"

"Besides, do you think I'm qualified to punish you now?" Mary turned around, walked forward and stared at Orson.

She glanced at the token in Orson's hand.

"You are now a young master who has gained the trust of the Duke of Antica and holds military power. I am just a weak and defenseless woman. What do you think, if there is any punishment, should I punish you or you punish me?"

"Mother, please stop joking. No matter what, I am still your son."

"You remember you are my son now?" Mary stared at Orson. "Orson, Orson, I thought you were a smart man, but after talking to you that day, I thought I was wrong."

"Now it seems that I was foolish. You are much smarter than I thought."

"By gaining the trust of the master and Li Te, you can gradually gain control of the family's power, and finally make Li Te your puppet, allowing you to control him, right?"

Mary laughed.

"Oh, it seems that when you were doing these things, you didn't need me at all. I was wondering why you were unwilling to cooperate with me."

"Mother, please calm down. I have not deceived anyone. I really don't want to inherit the position of Duke, so I promised my father to help him train Lit..."

"Orson, don't you understand what I mean?" Mary stepped back and looked at Orson.

"I can help you achieve your goal as soon as possible, as long as you can cooperate with me..."

"Mother, I still have some things to do. I have to lead a team to clear out the wild beasts tomorrow. I'll take my leave first." Orson said this, bowed, and then walked to the door.

When he reached the door, he paused, then turned back to look at Mary and said, "Mother, if that's what you want, why don't you consider helping Lit?"

Then he opened the door and walked out.

Mary was left standing there in silence.

"Master Orson, take care." At the door, Randall saw Orson coming out and bowed to him.

"Well, Uncle Randall, mother seems to be in a bad mental state recently. Please take good care of her." Orson said this and returned to his room.

Randall was also stunned. He stared at Orson's back in surprise for a few seconds, and then he walked into Mary's study.

……

The bathroom in Litt's room was filled with mist at this moment.

Only here can Leeteuk let down all his guard and enjoy the leisurely time of taking a bath in peace.

The area on my chest that had been wrapped in cloth was freed, and I felt a lot more relaxed.

Li Te sat in the bathroom with his knees hugged, half of his face buried in the water, thinking.

At this moment, his limbs were still aching. Although the healing potion could heal his wounds, it did not mean that he was fully recovered.

Fortunately, soaking in hot water can relieve this pain.

The power that he erupted in the desperate situation today was something he had never mastered before, but when he looked into it carefully, it seemed that all the moves he used were taught by Orson.

Lit remembers everything about that incident. She doesn't know why she became so crazy and so powerful.

All she knew was that during that time, she just wanted to kill all the enemies within her sight.

Because they want to hurt themselves.

Later, during the conversation with Orson, Litt also remembered that she regretted how she could be so rude to Orson.

After saying such hurtful words, Brother Orson probably no longer likes me. Even if that is not the case, there is probably a rift in the relationship between the two of them.

At this moment, Lit felt a strange voice whispering in his heart.

"Leet, do you want to know what happened today?"

"Hey? Who are you?" Litt looked around in surprise, but didn't see anyone.

"Don't worry, Lit, I am you and you are me."

"I was born from your subconscious mind, wanting to protect your own personality."
