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

"My idea is to send family knights to search his residence. Kenlin's home base is in the imperial capital."

……

Da da da

Vickery tapped his fingers on the table, thinking seriously.

Obviously, Ken Wei is not an ordinary grain merchant. There are probably many people behind him.

Can the family knights alone capture him?

The process would be very arduous, and the one named Ken definitely had a backup plan. When he realized that he had been exposed, the knights might even lose their lives.six nine four nine three six one three five

"Tia."

"what happened?"

"Get ready, I'll go with you later."

Vickery stood up.

"Now? It's already midnight?"

Tia was a little surprised.

"It's too late and things have changed. It's probably exposed that you were checking up on him."

Since you want to catch him, you can't leave him a chance to escape.

It's hunting time.

-----

Late at night, the streets are dimly illuminated by magic street lights.

Two hooded men were walking on the road, and as they walked, the deep sound of leather shoes echoed in the air.

The two stopped in front of a brightly lit building.

Tia reached out and knocked on the door.

"It's so late, who is it?"

The door opened a crack, and a man with fierce eyes glared at Tiya.

Tia didn't waste any time and directly showed the gold-gilded family seal.

The man seemed startled and said tremblingly.

"Bo, Pod, are you coming from Lambasa?"

"Open the door."

Tia said seriously.

The man hurriedly opened the door, and the two Vickreys walked in.

The people inside who were drinking looked at them dumbfounded.

"Oh haha, judging from the way you two are dressed, you are not ordinary people. Is there something important that comes to your humble residence so late?"

A man who was obviously dressed more luxuriously than the others came over.

Vickrey looked at Tia and indicated that he was willing to do it?

Tia shook her head.

"Where is he?"

"Oh, you mean you're willing to do it?"

The man's eyes were obviously shaken, he rubbed his palms and said embarrassedly.

"He, he's not here."

The next second, the man was choked by Vickery's mage's hands.

"Come on, my patience has its limits."

"Ahem, I, I said."

"where is it?"

"On the third floor, he is in the bedroom on the third floor!"

"Why do you want to help him hide it?" Tiya asked seriously.

"This is an order given by Ken. I, I am just a little person. You two adults, please spare me."

Vickery roughly let go of his neck, and the man rolled twice on the ground before getting up.

Vickery looked down at the man with cold eyes and said.

"lead the way."

"Yes Yes Yes."

The man stood up hurriedly and led the two of them towards the stairs.

However, as he climbed the stairs and passed the long corridor, the man suddenly ran forward.

The doors in the corridor opened in unison, and a group of masked men in black armed with knives rushed out.

Vickrey protected Tia behind him, and at the same time, a mithril dagger slipped out of his sleeve and shot at the escaping man.

The man pierced his thigh directly and nailed it to the floor.

Seeing this, the masked men pounced on Tia, their howling sounds more like beasts than people.

"You don't overestimate your capabilities." Vickery said coldly.

Under the impact of the mage's hand, the man who rushed towards them flew out as if he had been hit by a car.

Tiya was a little surprised after taking off the mask of one of them.

"dead?"

The man in black was cold all over, and judging from the spots on his face, he had been dead for some time.

"A necromancer?"

Tia immediately used magic to create a water ball, and carefully washed the hands that had just touched the mask, for fear of getting stained with something dirty.

Vickery looked at the open window to the side.

"That Kenwei probably jumped out of the window."

Vickery stepped in front of the man he had pinned to the ground earlier.

"Where did he escape to?"

"Bah!" the man spat without saying a word.

Vickery shook his head, and then stepped hard on the wound on the opponent's thigh.

"what!!!"

"You'd better say it now, or your legs may have to say goodbye."

Vickery stretched out his hand, and a knife scattered beside him flew into his hand.

Looking at the shining white blade, the man's face turned pale.

"I really didn't expect that Sir Vickrey and Miss Tia would come here."

At this time, a room door opened, and a plump man appeared with a smile.

"Will you do it?"

"Yes, it's me."

Kenwei smiled leisurely and bowed his head in salute.

It was obviously the etiquette of distinguishing between superior and inferior, but when he did this, there was a certain sense of ridicule.

"I had expected that such a day would come, but I didn't expect that I would be looked down upon so much, and that only two people would dare to come and arrest me."

But when Kenwei raised his head, he found that Vickery's eyes were no longer on him, but on the expensive decorations on the corridor wall.

Seeing this, he hurriedly chanted a spell and cast a spell.

"Crack!"

However, before the spell was finished, the knife in Weekley's hand was stuck in the wall.

The ornaments that were cut in half slowly rolled down to the floor, and some black mist dissipated into the air.

With Kenwei's eyes widening, Vickery said coldly.

"Do you think I can't see this little trick of yours?"

Through the Master's Heart, he could see the magic hidden in the ornaments at a glance.

This is the casting medium for the instant-death magic 'Curse of the Undead' in the game. No wonder the opponent dared to ask Da to stay where he was.

Once they are recruited, they will also become the living dead who are manipulated by others.

"...How did you find out?"

Kenwei's eyes were full of murderous intent, his surroundings were filled with a faint black mist, and the air was mixed with the scent of demons.

The other party didn't seem to be trying to hide it.

However, Vickery didn't want to answer.

"Are you a spy sent by the kingdom?"

In the background of the game, people in the kingdom do not hesitate to use the power of demons to enhance their own strength.

"Huh, since you found out, then I'll die!"

Chapter 25 Avoiding Death

Kenwei clasped his hands together, and the black magic power melted like a shadow, pouring towards Vickrey like crazy.

However, a transparent barrier composed of the hands of the mage blocked Vikle's face, and the magic powers of the two collided with each other.

At the same time, a mithril dagger struck at Kenwei's chest from the darkness.

Hearing the sound of breaking through the air behind him, Ken tried to dodge in time, but was still hit by a sword in his arm.

He bent over and groaned in pain, but finally completed the magic.

'Blood Armor'

The blood flowing out covered his whole body like armor. Under the dark red helmet, he was dressed roughly.

"…What happened to your magic?"

"You don't have to know."

More and more daggers floated up and stabbed Kenwei.

"Hey."

Sparks flashed across the sky, and the dagger accurately cut through the gaps in the armor, leaving wounds everywhere.

Facing the short, concise, and efficient attack, Kenwei was forced to do nothing.

"...Damn!"

Magic power surged, enveloping Ken Wei's blood and splashing around like an explosion.

But this unexpected attack was blocked by the barrier in front of Weekly.

"Hey, what kind of magic is this?"

"Is that important?"

A faint red light flashed in Vickrey's eyes.

"Anyway, you're going to die soon."

Weekley's death-like voice made Kenwei feel deep despair.

"The people of the kingdom swear to the death and will not surrender!"

As Kenwei shouted, his face began to twist, his skin gradually shriveled, and his hair turned white.
