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

Even she didn't have the guts to disobey Yamos at this moment.

"In terms of politics, we who have been guarding the northern defense line of the empire and fighting hard to kill the enemy don't even have the right to speak out against the aristocratic scum who sing every night. It's really ironic."

The Clare family, which has a long history, is gradually declining.

A defeat without reinforcements caused them to lose their original family head and the only voice they had in the empire. This was also an opportunity for Yamos to make up his mind.

"I will not repeat my father's old ways, and Yura knows this determination."

"Yeah, I understand, I understand too..."

Eleanor's answer was a little perfunctory.

In fact, when her father died, she also fought for the position of head of the family.

But it was already certain that Yamos, who was trusted by the soldiers, would become the next successor, and she was really no match for Yamos, so she simply gave up.

Eleanor never put much effort into something she couldn't have.

But now it seems that I was wrong. Yamos has brought the family to the edge of the abyss...

"Even if I kill this dog emperor, it won't eliminate the resentment in my heart. One day I will pull him from this position, tear him into pieces and feed him to the dogs!"

Eleanor shook her head.

Yamos's murderous desire is too strong. He may be a competent general because of his bloodthirsty nature, but he is definitely not the material of an emperor. If this continues, Yora will be forced away by him sooner or later...

But while she was worried, Eleanor was also looking forward to that day.

As a sister, if Yula really wants to break up with the family...

.

She hopes that Yula can become stronger than Biamos, use force to take the family back from him, and bring the Claire family to a new level...

At this time, Yura and his wife came down the stairs.

"Oh, Vickery, is the conversation over?"

As soon as Yamos saw Vickrey, his face immediately changed, and his face was full of kindness, as if he really thought highly of his brother-in-law.

Although the atmosphere between Youla and Vickrey was a little awkward, it was not as tense as before.

"Well, we're done talking." Vickery nodded.

"Come on, let's find a place to have another drink."

Yamos patted Yula on the shoulder with satisfaction, indicating that she had done a good job.

Yola didn't speak, she just glanced at Yamos and Eleanor silently. Is it really like what Vickery said...

Then the four of them walked out of the restaurant together.

Vickrey walked slowly on purpose, looking at the three brothers and sisters in front of him...

"Yora, does this restaurant taste good? We also ate on the first floor, especially the steak, which is really delicious."

"I don't know. Also, sister, please don't talk to me again."

"Ahem? Why? Sister, did I do something wrong?"

"You really don't know? Think about what you said today."

"Why are you quarreling again? Did you have any disagreements when you chose the dress?"

"..."

Looking from a distance, it looks like a very warm scene, just an ordinary brother and sister quarreling.

But in reality, what will happen...

Vickery shook his head, feeling quite emotional.

Who would have thought that Yura, who is so kind now, would kill her brother and sister with her own hands after becoming a guardian knight...

"The Merciless Snow Knight?"

Chapter 41 Sophie was suddenly speechless

The next morning.

There was a loud noise in the training room.

boom!

The dagger, which was supposed to be floating lightly, suddenly rushed towards the wall. Sparks flew out in an instant, and the huge force caused all the daggers to sink into the wall. Black cracks spread like rhizomes on the wall, and the shattered Stones mixed with dust fell one after another.

"Can't you adapt to it all at once?"

[LV1 magic power increase]

[The upper limit of the host's magic power is increased by 300 points, and the recovery efficiency and power are slightly enhanced. The specific effect depends on the level]

Vickrey could feel that the magic power in his body had grown and was refined into a more pure form, achieving a qualitative breakthrough.

The power of the magic circle all over his body has been amplified by at least a quarter. This percentage of power-enhancing skills...

It is indeed the most promising skill in the level 1 shop. It is really powerful, but the disadvantage is that it needs to be adapted to this power again...

Vickrey initially estimated that it would take him about a week to return to his original proficiency.

Suddenly, the door to the training room was opened.

"Who?!"

He should have told the head maid that no one could come in without his consent.

"Whatever you yell, it's me."

It's actually Tia?

When Tia saw him, she looked away as if she saw something dirty.

"No, why aren't you wearing clothes? Although I heard that you have started exercising recently, there is no need to just wear a pair of pants when exercising."

Vickrey ignored Tia's complaints. His attention was attracted by the parchment in the other person's hand. There seemed to be traces of magic?

Sure enough, the moment he looked at the parchment, the system immediately reacted.

[Main mission: Convening of the Wizards Council]

"This is for you, the convening order sent by the Wizards' Council. The last council was probably 15 years ago. I didn't expect it to be opened again so soon."

Weekly took the parchment in his mage's hand and read it.

Well... the general meaning is that the Wizards Council is in crisis and needs to recruit manpower. The Pod family has been selected and asked him to rush over as soon as possible...

What a condescending tone...

"Are you here specifically to deliver parchment?"

"You're overthinking it. I happen to have something to do in Imperial City tomorrow, so I stopped by."

Tia replied grumblingly as she shrugged.

"By the way, the room I live in when I go to school should be empty, right? I'll sleep there tonight, don't even think about coming in."

"You don't need to tell me, I can't go."

"The tone of your words is really as irritating as ever... No, what are you doing? Hehehehe~"

Amidst the screams, Tiya was thrown out by him with the hand of the mage.

"Hey! Tomorrow! It's my father's death anniversary. I must go to the cemetery!" Tia shouted at the door.

"...understood."

After a brief silence, Vickrey nodded, and then resumed training, leaving Tia looking at the closed door of the training room with a dark complexion.

"..."

[Magic Research Club for Civilians]

Sophie looked at the door number hanging on the club room and smiled.

Although she was opposed to joining at first, the feeling of belonging was really good, and more importantly, she made two friends, Judy and Peko.

Just when she was about to go in

At that moment, the door suddenly opened with a bang.

"Wow!"

Sophie was surprised. The application for the club was only officially approved today, and this was her first time here.

"Ah, Sophie, you're here!"

Judy grabbed her hand and pulled her inside.

"Hey, Sophie, why did you come here? We have been waiting for you for 10 minutes."

"Would you like to play cards later? I bought a pair specially."

Peco and Gates spoke next.

Although Gates is the son of a local rich man, his family does not have a title and he is technically a commoner. He had met Sophie in his first class at Wakeley and joined the club out of fun. of.

The total number of members in the club is only seven, which is much less than expected.

Even though there are usually many people who support Judy and the others, when it comes to really confronting the nobles, there are only a few who dare to stand up. Generally, it is bourgeois commoners like Peco and Gates who join.

Even though Sophie got an unexpected fortune of [-] Galleons some time ago, she is still the poorest in the entire society. Even Peko is an invisible little rich woman. The gadgets she made with alchemy are quite popular. A lady's favorite.

In a sense, she is the only 'commoner'.

"Sophie, how is it? It's very spacious."

Judy walked around in the center of the club classroom.

"Well, it's pretty big."

It was more spacious than Sophie expected, almost as big as the bedroom she had when she was a rich lady.

"Wow, there's a sofa..."

Sophie staggered to the sofa and sat down slowly.

So soft, was her first thought.

She then pushed down with her butt but quickly returned to her original position.

"Oh oh oh!"

I pressed it again and it recovered this time.

Finally, Sophie stood up and sat down hard again, but it was no problem.

Without a doubt, this was the most luxurious sofa she had ever sat on.

After Sophie observed everyone for a while and found that no one planned to share the sofa with her, she quietly lay down on the sofa...

She couldn't help but yawn because it was so comfortable.

"Haha~~ But Judy, what is the purpose of our club's activities?"

"Ah? You handed the application form to Professor Weekly in the first place. Didn't you read a word of it!?"

"...forget."

"...There's really nothing you can do about it. The purpose of the club is 'the practical application and development of magic'. If you can achieve results, you can also get a place to visit the floating island."

The wizard's holy place - the floating island.

It is said that the sightseeing ticket alone costs 1000 Galleons, which is terrifyingly expensive, but as long as you are a wizard in the academy, you must go there, because the wizard level upgrade exams are all held there.

"Do you want money?"

Sophie first asked about the price.

The previous sponsorship of [-] galleons was rapidly decreasing, and the prices of some magic books and textbooks were no joke. In just a few days, she had less than half of the money left.

"Of course it's free."

"Oh, this is good!"

The club activities were not as bad as she thought. Sophie originally thought they would be troublesome.

Peco thought for a moment and added.
