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

Among the three items, apart from the pure handicraft blue and white porcelain vase and the expensive Oliha steel, the one that surprised him the most was the Ring of Life.

After putting on the ring and seeing its attributes clearly through the system, Weekly was very glad that he bought it.

【Ring of Life】

Grade: High-end (made by the famous contemporary craftsman Master Rulda)

effect:

1. Resident intermediate healing technique (unlimited times and no limit)

2. Store 500 magic points.

3. Promote the flow of blood and magic power of the wearer and increase the recovery speed.

In addition to the intermediate healing technique that he desperately needed, it actually also had the effect of storing magic power!

After the ring absorbs the magic power in his body, it will be stored like a battery, which is equivalent to increasing his upper limit of magic power in disguise.

Although it is only 500 points, it is not helpful for him who needs to activate the Mage Hand for a long time, not to mention that there are very few props with such effects in the game.

I really found a treasure, it was only 55 Galleons, it was worth it!

but...

It's a blessing and a misfortune that the Oliha steel he bought at a sky-high price seems to have overturned.

Vickery sighed and looked at the lump of ice-like stuff on the table.

The surface of the white metal is covered with fine ice patterns, and it is constantly exuding cold air, showing its existence boldly. It is more like a kind of magic than metal.

【Oliha Steel】

Grade: High level (from the Frozen Devil's Cave, it was originally a condensation of magic power without attributes, but thousands of years of ice and snow have made it imbued with the magic power of ice.)

Effect: Ice attribute magic effect increased by 50%

"....How about you move a little bit?"

However, it was almost 10 minutes, and no matter how many times Vickrey activated the mage's hand, Oliha Steel remained motionless.

Apparently, the magic in Oliha's steel was resisting his.

Since Vickrey itself has fire-attribute magic power, it is seriously inconsistent with the ice-attribute magic power inside it.

If he continues to be in this state, even if the Oliha Steel is smelted and forged into what he wants, he will not be able to control it.

By then, this thing will be no different than scrap metal to me.

Could it be that his 700 million galleons were just wasted?

Vickery looked at the lump of ice distressedly.

Suddenly, he remembered a sentence he read in a book in the library.

'Only by wielding the sword day and night and taming it with his own magic power can the knight reach the state of mind-sword communication. '

tame?

Chapter 36

Although he is not a knight, he has practiced swordsmanship for a period of time. If his idea is correct...

Vickrey stared at Oliha Steel and slowly put his hand up.

The touch is cold, but there is a heat, Oliha Steel is rejecting himself.

But Weekly was not discouraged and quietly activated the Master's Heart.

He wants to understand, gain insight, and learn everything about Oliha Steel!

[Magic power: 1154/4000]

With the consumption of magic power, Weekly instantly understood the nature of its magic power, the structure of atoms, and the principles of its formation... He also achieved trance-like communication through insight beyond matter.

"...!"

In an instant, there was a stinging pain in his eyes, and the hand on the Oliha steel was scorched by electricity-like energy, and the air was filled with the aroma of meat.

There seems to be no change in Oliha Steel...

But Weekly could feel the 'bridge' that had just been built between them.

【Oliha Steel】

Resolution: 0.1%

It took nearly 3000 magic points to get 0.1%...

Although I have the system, my recovery speed is three to five times that of ordinary people.

But even if he devoted a whole day's magic power to it, it would still take him a year to complete the analysis of this piece of Oliha steel...

Maybe he can barely control it at 50%, but until then, is mithril his best choice?

"It's really hard work."

Vickery shook his head with a wry smile and activated the healing spell on the ring to heal his hand injury.

At this time, the housekeeper shouted from outside the door.

"Master, Count Amos is here to visit."

Amos?

Vickery looked at his watch.

It is now 5:25 pm, still far from the agreed time of 7 o'clock.

Are you afraid that you will run away...

-----

'De Sainte', one of the few top restaurants in the empire.

It is famous for its quiet environment and elegant style. It is said that the royal family often comes here to dine. It is difficult for even high-ranking nobles to book a dinner here...

However, in the private room on the second floor.

"Ah~uh."

Yura, whose shoulders were half exposed, would moan coquettishly from time to time.

Her legs were tightly clamped on the skirt, and the black string high heels under her feet were rubbing back and forth uneasily...

"...Um."

For Yula, who usually only wears armor, this dress is more like a torture device. The annoying lace accessories are always scratching her skin, and the chest is too tight...

"Are you OK?"

Looking at her sister who was twisting and turning like a caterpillar, Eleanor asked with a smile.

"No, it doesn't matter." Youla said with a bitter smile.

"You really can accept it?"

"Ah."

Eleanor put her hand under her chin and pursed her lips.

"lie."

"It's okay, I can still tolerate this."

"I'm not talking about the clothes, but this dinner and engagement."

"..."

"You don't want to get married, do you?"

Facing such a straightforward question, Yura seemed a little silent.

"....What's the use of not wanting to."

After a moment, she shook her head sullenly.

Eleanor smiled slyly.

"If you really don't like it, sister, I can teach you a way."

"Ah, is there any way?" Yola tilted her head innocently.

Elinor put her mouth to her ear and spoke in a very low voice.

"Wouldn't it be better to get married first and then kill Vickrey? In this way, the Pod family will also be yours..."

That whisper, like a poisonous snake spitting out its core, made Yora's hair stand on end, and she looked at Elinor with wide eyes.

"Second sister, you! How can you say that!"

Because for Yula, this is a vicious plan that she can't even think of.

"Just kidding, kidding."

Eleanor smiled and hugged Yula's shoulders.

"There must be a limit to joking!"

Yura pushed the hand away angrily.

Although she really doesn't want to get married, she won't use such methods...

"I just can't bear to let my lovely sister marry such a man. That's why I said this. Don't be angry."

"Who in the world would make such a joke! This is no longer a joke, you are committing murder!"

Yura's face turned dark and she banged on the dining table angrily, while Eleanor kept saying sorry.

At this time, the door opened.

First there was a fresh scent, and then Vickrey appeared.

The atmosphere at the scene changed instantly.

Eleanor couldn't help but admire her after seeing it.

It has to be said that Vickrey's appearance and temperament are indeed outstanding.

"When you came here, you must have attracted the attention of many girls on the first floor." Eleanor chatted up with a smile.

Vickrey didn't reply, just looked at the two of them indifferently, then lowered his head and sat down.

Next, Amos squeezed in, and he looked at Le Eleanor doubtfully.

"Elinor? Why are you here too?"

"I came here with Youla and helped her dress up. What do you think?"

Yamos looked at Yula who was dressed in a formal dress, and his eyes suddenly widened.

In the past ten years, it was the first time that he saw himself, a man's mother-in-law, wearing a skirt.

"Hahaha, girls just have to dress up. Isn't this quite decent? What are you looking at, Vickery?"

Yamos looked at Vickery with some pride.

Youla, who was carefully dressed up by Eleanor, is definitely not the same beauty as before. You must take the initiative to apologize now.

However, Vickery didn't speak. He just looked at Yura quietly.

Yora was also looking at him. Their eyes met, but neither one refused to admit defeat and just kept staring at the other.

In the seemingly 'ambiguous' atmosphere, Yamos turned his head and chuckled secretly.

Chapter 37

Arriving at the Descent restaurant as scheduled, Vickery was stunned by Yula in a dress as soon as he saw her, but the woman next to him with a gentle smile surprised him even more.

Eleanor.

For Weekly, this is a very dangerous figure. Although the two met for the first time, as a popular character in the game, he knows the setting of this femme fatale...

"When you came here, you must have attracted the attention of many girls on the first floor."

Facing the woman's question, Vickery did not answer. He was hesitating whether to turn around and leave...

At first glance, leaving the scene may temporarily avoid dealing with Elinor, but in the long run it is not a wise move.
