After choosing to leave, they regretted it.

Villian cursed and turned to the driver and yelled:

"Don't stop! No matter what happens, don't stop! Otherwise I'll kill you first!"

After saying that, he grabbed the roof of the carriage and jumped up. Standing there, he drew the wand from his waist, pointed it at the other party and began to gather magic power.

"Stay away from us—stay away from Aize!!!"

Raise it up and swing it down.

The azure sky turned dark in an instant, and a huge fireball as big as a meteorite fell from the sky and hit the middle of the knights' team accurately.

boom!!!!

The explosion was much more violent than the previous one, and the flames rising into the sky turned into a mushroom cloud.

The air wave was like a storm, sweeping through the surrounding forests and blowing huge amounts of flowers, plants, soil and rocks directly into the sky.

The violent impact spread out from the explosion point, as if a small earthquake had occurred, causing the carriage to tremble as if it was about to fall apart.

When the smoke and flames dissipated, a crater-like mark was left in the place where it was.

The angry attack of the thirteen leaders was so powerful.

The driver was also stunned:

"Miss, did you just... blow an entire team of knights into the sky!?"

"Drive your car, no more questions!"

"Yes Yes Yes……"

The driver wanted to slap himself twice.

This crazy woman dared to kill even the noble knights at will. Wouldn't it be like crushing a bug if she wanted to kill me?

You're asking for trouble by talking so much.

After finishing her work, Villian took a breath and put her wand back on her waist.

He slowly climbed down from the roof of the carriage, lifted the curtain and turned into the carriage to check on Aize.

"Aize, how are you? Are you hurt anywhere?"

Aize curled up in a ball, lying in the middle of the carriage, gasping for breath.

"It's okay...it's okay, I just...overexerted a bit, it's okay...Compared to this, what's going on here?"

Chapter 115 Intersection

There were several other passengers in the carriage besides Aize and Villian.

Three children, two boys and one girl, one big and two small.

The older boy was sitting aside staring at Aize blankly, while the two younger ones were hugging each other, curled up in the arms of another woman who looked about the same age as Aize.

Sheen's two younger brothers, a younger sister, and his fiancée.

And most importantly, Sheen himself was lying in the corner of the carriage, his eyes closed and unconscious, lying on the legs of a woman around 40 years old.

That woman was naturally Sheen's mother.

The entire family that was detained was here, and no hostages were left as leverage, so the operation was considered very successful.

Aize walked to Xien and asked doubtfully:

"Ma'am, what happened to Sean?"

The lady in the gorgeous long dress looked haggard. She stroked her eldest son's cheek distressedly and shook her head:

"I don't know either. He's been like this for the past few days. No matter how much I call him, he won't wake up!"

Aize cast a doubtful look at Villian, who sighed and said:

"A preliminary examination revealed nothing resembling a curse. He's in good health. It's likely he was given some kind of potion, which is why he hasn't woken up yet."

"Is there any way to undo it?"

"Hmm... not sure."

After a moment's thought, Violet replied:

"To remove it, we first need to figure out what type of potion it is. You know, I'm not an expert in this area. And after figuring out the type of potion, we need to prepare an antidote. I'm not sure if the village can gather the ingredients."

Then she smiled again:

"Don't worry, there will definitely be a way. The worst-case scenario is just a few side effects."

A little side effect.

Including but not limited to extreme irritation to the digestive tract, respiratory tract and nervous system, severe body pain, and physiological changes in gender, etc.

If I hadn't actually tried it, I might have believed it.

Then, Aize sighed:

"So, no matter what, we have to bring him back to the village, right?"

"Yes."

I went out to buy something, but Alicia and the original car lady who came with me were gone.

They also brought back a car full of nobles dressed in gorgeous clothes.

Those half-bloods in the village who are already hostile to humans, who knows what kind of trouble they will cause.

And it’s not safe there now.

Brian, who hadn't caught him in Tafia, would definitely send someone there next. By then, a single careless move could lead to a bloody storm.

Just thinking about it gives me a headache.

At this point, Aize asked again:

"Bryan's butler, Rufus, is actually a witch who took a gender-changing potion. Do you have any guesses about her true identity?"

Judging from what Rufus said, she had been monitoring Villian's house long before the incident began.

But in the end, she only recognized Aize, but did not discover Villian's true identity.

This made Aize very confused.

Violet held her chin in her hand and thought for a while before shaking her head.

"No, alas. I saw that guy's appearance through my familiar, but among the high-ranking witches I know, there is no one who fits that appearance."

"Um……"

That is to say, five years before Villian became the Great Witch, the other party had already left the witch territory and gone to Duke Brian.

Even more extremely, perhaps when the witches' ancestors were persecuted and moved into the demon territory, there was a group that did not leave and quietly hid.

No matter what, she is Brian's most difficult enemy besides Alicia.

Although Villian could easily crush her in terms of strength, that guy seemed to be extremely skilled in various skills outside of combat.

It's hard to say whether there will be a killer move, so be careful.

After talking to Villian, Aize turned his attention to Xien's fiancée and family.

They had met once before at a banquet. Although they were not very familiar with each other, they at least knew each other. They also knew that Aize - Ain was Xien's friend.

Plus, the situation was so bad that it wasn't that difficult to ask them to cooperate.

Facing Xien's mother, Aize lowered his head and saluted politely:

"I'm sorry to have frightened you, ma'am. Don't worry, I'll take care of the rest and ensure you return safely to Tafia. Until then, please bear with me for a moment."

As a mature noblewoman, she suppressed her worries and fears, bowed her head and said:

"No way! If it weren't for Mr. Ain's rescue, we would still be imprisoned."

As she spoke, she smoothed her son's hair again and couldn't help sighing:

"Alas—this Duke Brian, we were always on good terms when the child's father was still alive. He even helped a lot when the child's father just died. I never thought... he would harbor such evil intentions!"

Aize nodded, then became alert and asked:

"Ma'am, could you please tell me more about this matter?"

"Which one?"

"Could you please tell me in detail about the death of the previous Viscount Edgar and the actions taken by Duke Brian after his death? It is very important. Don't miss any details."

----------

Brian sat alone in the study, sulking, the anger in his heart just wouldn't go away.

Can't blame him.

In the past hour or so, he went from having an absolute advantage with a sure win to now being completely defeated. The contrast is too great.

"That damned monster—"

Unable to bear it any longer, Brian kicked over the candlestick on the desk, stood up, picked up the vase on the shelf next to him, and smashed it to pieces.

Just smashing it for fun, to vent my sexual desire.

It’s not yours anyway.

There was a knock on the door. Rufus walked to the desk and saluted Brian.

"Master, according to your instructions, Alicia has been imprisoned in the dungeon, and I have also assigned dozens of people to guard her."

Brian shook his head:

"It's useless. If it really wants to escape, adding zeros to the number of people won't help. That guy is such a monster, ordinary methods are completely ineffective."

It transcends the limitations of body size and can change its appearance at will.

From giant monsters to ants so small that they are almost invisible, as long as she wants, there is always a way to escape.

"It's not escaping now because there's an entire village of bastards held hostage. But what happens next? Brave Aize has intervened. That guy is cunning and scheming. It's only a matter of time before we lose control of him."

Rufus nodded.

"So you mean, get rid of her?"

Brian sat back down, leaning back in his chair and thinking for a moment, then shook his head.

"That's not necessary. He's still useful... Let's put that aside for now. What about the knights who left the city to pursue him? Did they get any reward?"

Rufus showed an embarrassed expression.

"They... Master, they have been confirmed to be wiped out."

"Total destruction!?"

Brian's eyes widened and he slammed the table.

"How could that useless hero possibly defeat dozens of elite knights? He even struggled to defeat three!"

"There was a violent explosion at the scene. It was a very advanced offensive technique. Master, although it may seem strange to say this, it seems that there are also witches of high rank around the Hero Aize."

It wasn't just the explosion that wiped out the Knights.

The giant puppet that had caused trouble in the city before, and the puppet that he had made himself but had his control taken away from him. He couldn't get it back and could only destroy it.

All these things indicate that the witch next to Aize is likely to be stronger than himself.

Brian frowned.

"A witch is accompanying the hero? I've never heard of such information... Hmph, didn't that guy lead his men to fight against the witch army in the Anlin Plains before? Maybe he captured a high-ranking witch as a prisoner and used her for his own use."

Although it is still a little far from the truth, it is already very accurate to be able to make such a guess based on nothing.

After all, who could have imagined Villian's situation?

"No matter what, that guy escaped with Viscount Edgar's family. This will have a huge impact on subsequent plans. He must be recaptured immediately! The orc army on the Anlin Plains is getting impatient!"
