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

But as he looked at it, his expression froze.

[The Pearl family’s exploitation of the people…]

[Unknown remittances and army expansion of the Claire family...]

The newspaper is full of dirty information about major families.

In addition, Weekly also learned that the decline of the Fanor village was planned by his predecessor, and he attempted to purchase the land at a low price.

"..."

Although I don't know what the purpose of the predecessor was, with the character of 'Weikeli', it is by no means as simple as simply wanting a piece of land. There must be some deep meaning in it...

"Let's just wait and see what happens."

"Dong dong."

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and the housekeeper said outside.

"Master, Lady Yola is here to visit."

After hearing those words, Vickrey's body moved immediately without realizing it. When he came to his senses, he had already opened the door.

In the living room, Yula was standing there in armor, her white hair spread as light as snowflakes.

"……Have you been okay recently?"

Youla smiled gently, her expression was very natural, without the previous barriers.

"Well, okay, let's go out and talk."

As the two were walking on the way to the garden, Vickery asked curiously.

"Why are you here?"

Yula blinked and scratched her cheek in embarrassment.

"Um...didn't I accidentally become His Majesty's teacher?"

"Oh? His Majesty asked you to come?"

"Well, because His Majesty Crito wanted your signature, His Majesty asked me to do this..."

Yura took out a book.

When he saw the cover, Vickery's face turned red.

This predecessor book is considered quite rubbish in the wizarding world.

"No."

"...Huh? Can't you do that?"

Yura froze.

"I'll give it to you after I correct the content of the book. It won't take long, don't worry."

"Well, thank you."

Yura asked slightly shyly.

"...Speaking of which, I still have a lot of time today. Do you want to play chess?"

play chess?

Vickrey roughly guessed the reason, and it seemed that Yekarina had taken the bait.

"Okay, come with me."

Vickery led her to a stone table in the garden and sat down.

Looking at the empty tabletop, Yura asked doubtfully.

"At this?"

Vickery did not speak, but gently placed his hand on the stone table, after which a blue arc of electricity flashed.

Within a few seconds, chess pieces emerged from the stone table, and the table turned into a chessboard.

It's easy for high-level alchemy to do this.

"Wow, how did you do it?"

Yura's eyes lit up.

"Don't worry, let's get started."

"Ah."

Yura took a deep breath and focused on the chessboard.

.....

5 minute later.

"General."

Vickery moved the chess pieces with an expressionless expression.

He only spent less than 200 magic points on the whole process.

"……how can that be?"

Yora looked at the chessboard in disbelief, not even realizing what was happening.

"You shouldn't take the initiative to attack here..."

Vickery pointed at the chessboard and said patiently.

Yula nodded, as if she understood.

"Well, it was too fast just now, let's... have another game?"

"can."

"Ah, really! Thank you!"

5 minutes later……

"Come again!"

10 minutes later……

"I can definitely win this time!"

……

Yura tried five or six times in a row but failed.

"...How could this happen? My chess skills are obviously ranked third among the knights."

Yura bit her lip

, her face was also a little pale, and she, who had always refused to admit defeat, found it difficult to accept the reality.

Vickery smiled.

"Very good, Youla, you are very talented in this area, and you are improving every time, but that's it for today, go back and think about it."

Just a compliment, Yula's mood immediately improved.

She stared into Vickery's eyes and said seriously.

"Well, I will come again, you are not allowed to refuse."

"welcome any time."

Vickery chuckled.

But after a moment of silence, neither party stood up first.

While hesitating, Youla tentatively said.

"...One more plate?"

Chapter 132 Hatred

In the evening, in a carriage driving from the Fanol slum.

On the carriage, Evelin looked out the window at the sunset and couldn't help but have tears in her eyes.

"Evelyn."

A low and pleasant male voice sounded.

Vickrey, who was sitting next to her, said calmly.

"Look at it, it's not a bad thing for you."

"..."

Evelin turned her head sharply and looked at him silently.

"Although you have to serve me for five years, during this period, you have also been protected by the Pod family."

"...You can also say this kind of thing?"

The shamelessness of the man in front of her really made Evelin furious.

But she also knew that she couldn't defeat Vickery at all, let alone now that she had signed the oath. If she had a head-on confrontation, she would only suffer a loss.

"Why, is there any other way for you to earn 7 million galleons in five years?"

"..."

"Since you can't, just correct your attitude."

Evelin turned her head away, still a little dissatisfied.

At the same time, the carriage arrived at her residence in the imperial capital.

"In addition, you should report to the college in the near future, and I will arrange the professor's position for you."

Evelin pushed open the door and walked out of the carriage angrily.

"...Understand?"

Evelin turned her head, she lengthened her tone and mocked.

"...I will go without you having to tell me."

Vickery raised his eyebrows, a strange color flashing in his eyes.

"Say it again."

Evelin gritted her teeth.

"...Yes, I understand, boss."

Vickery nodded with satisfaction.

"Ah That's good."

Immediately, the carriage drove away.

"Humph!"

Evelin snorted disdainfully and turned her head away.

However, after taking a few steps, she stopped again and turned back to glare at the back of the carriage.

Although Evelin was furious, she was helpless. Due to the restrictions of the oath, she could not even tell others about the kidnapping.

Sooner or later, she would have to repay this feeling of being controlled by others.

Evelin clenched her fists, but while she was angry, she also felt a little shaken in her heart.

If you can get the real position of chief professor by just working for Weekly for five years, and get the secret skills passed down from home...

...It seems that it is not unacceptable?

Meanwhile, Olivia is learning magic at home.

The desk is full of class notes from Vickery's lectures, and she is reviewing related content about disaster magic.
