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

In a transaction, both parties have to pay something.

But how valuable is a princess abandoned by the Kangong Kingdom?

The answer is yes.

Alice has nothing to give him...

Thinking of this, Ruisa's expression became serious.

"Grand Duke, is it true that no one else knows about this matter?"

"Of course not, you were the first one I notified."

For a moment, Ruisa felt goosebumps all over her body.

coming.

She remembered something Vickery once said.

"I am a lord and a politician. I am better than you in terms of intelligence, insight or any other aspect."

Could it be that he had deduced the relationship between the Grand Duke and Alice just through the friction between the kingdom and the duchy and some one-sided intelligence, and concluded that Alice would eventually inherit the title of duke?

From the very beginning, was this why he started trading?

If so...

"What a creepy monster..."

Ruisa felt deeply afraid of this strategy. If she were to become an enemy of Vickrey in the future, she would be an extremely terrifying enemy.

"What? I give you the creeps?"

Brandon blew his beard and stared at her.

"no no."

Only then did Ruisa come back to her senses.

"I'm talking about Vickery again. He actually expected that Alice would succeed to the throne in advance. His sharp thinking is like a monster."

"Stop, no need to explain."

"No, I'm serious..."

"Okay, let's go out, I know you are tired."

"No, Grand Duke, listen to me..."

Ruisa explained anxiously.

At night, the round moon is covered with a layer of mist, and stars gather around it, emitting little starlight.

Alice curled up on the bed like a shrimp, seriously thinking about everything that had happened today and herself so far.

"Compared to my brothers and sisters, I am the only one who survived..."

Because of her living environment, Alice has had a strong obsession with survival since she was a child.

The education of the Kangong royal family is undoubtedly pathological.

The king trained all his children as successors and instilled in them a sense of struggle. They were so ambitious that they would do anything to achieve their goals.

But the king was proud of his children's terrible personalities.

Faced with the life of walking on thin ice in the Kangong Kingdom, if you are not careful, you will fall into the abyss.

Alice chose to escape and voluntarily came to the Empire as a hostage.

But this safety was only temporary. From the day she arrived in the empire, she planned how to leave.

While working hard to raise funds, Alice also worked hard to develop her innocent and kind-hearted princess character, and successfully won the knight's loyalty.

In the end, she survived and got the life she wanted.

"Are you acting..."

Thinking of what Vickery said to her, Alice pouted and got up from the bed.

Of course, I did pretend to be an innocent child to gain people's favor.

Because all human beings have an instinct to protect their children, Alice cleverly took advantage of this.

Although she has been disguising herself since she was sensible.

But during this escape, her gratitude to everyone came from the bottom of her heart and was absolutely not false.

Alice is very grateful to Ruisa, to Ron, to Ji'an for his sacrifice, and also sincerely grateful to Vickrey for his help today.

But Alice was very curious about one thing.

"But how did he know..."

She didn't come into contact with many people in the empire, and no one had ever seen her through. Everyone just regarded her as a pitiful and worthless abandoned child of the royal family.

"In such a short period of time..."

In just a few hours, Vickery had penetrated her disguise and keenly analyzed the reasons why she did what she did.

Is this the standard of a chief professor at Imperial College?

"It's incredible."

The mask that had been hidden for more than 10 years was revealed in an instant.

Although this feeling of being naked made Alice somewhat embarrassed...

But more than anything, she felt relieved.

"call……"

Sitting at the desk, Alice sighed, then looked at the letter in the corner.

"Write a thank you letter..."

If it was Professor Weekly, it would be okay to write something sincere.

With this feeling, Alice picked up the pen.

Chapter 106 He Has This Ability

As soon as he returned to his residence in the imperial capital, Weekly dug out a recent academic magazine and fell into deep thought as he looked at the densely packed magic issues on it.

Which question to choose?

Which question would provide him with the most magic?

While flipping through the magazine, Weekley came across a special column.

"Millennium problem..."

For thousands of years, the magic world has left behind seven major problems, which are similar in difficulty to the seven major mathematical problems in previous lives.

Just by looking at it, Weekly knew that with his more than 4000 magic powers, he might not even be able to touch the threshold.

Turning the page, he turned his attention to the 'Expert Topics' column.

"Come and challenge the expert topics and get the honor of being a wizard! You will get a lot of bonuses and the opportunity to meet famous teachers!"

The slogan in the magazine is very eye-catching.

There are 12 expert questions in total, and the questioners are masters from various schools. Usually only 1-2 questions are solved each year, and the vacancies will be filled with new questions in the coming year.

The topic in this column is quite famous. If solved, I'm afraid

I'm afraid I can get a lot of magic power.

It's worth a try.

Vickrey looked at question six.

[6. The following runes are engraved on the recently excavated ancient stone tablets... It is reported that in the past, rune magic was also a type of majority faction. Please try to restore this lost technology. 】

...

Ancient runes.

At first, Vickery simply watched, but soon his heartbeat began to beat faster.

...He knows this rune.

In the game, runes are actually the product of the disordered order of English, and you can often encounter these things in some decryption levels.

It's a very underworld design. The game has been criticized by players for a long time. Even he said it was disgusting when he played it.

But now he is very grateful for this design, because with a little time, he can understand the meaning and structure behind each rune.

Vickrey activated the Master's Heart to speed up the process.

The unknown runes merged with the memories in his mind to form some kind of magic.

Vickery grabbed a pen and wrote something on the paper automatically.

His whole consciousness was focused on this question, and the desire for knowledge consumed his body.

Gradually, the paper was filled with words he had never seen before.

The runes above are filled with magic power.

And since the rune was something he already knew, the drain on mana wasn't that serious.

...and it can go on.

--

I do not know how long it has been.

When Vickrey came back to his senses, the desktop was covered with papers, and a stack of thick documents were neatly placed in front of him.

The magic power dried up unconsciously.

"..."

Vickery rubbed his temples.

I looked at my watch and realized that two hours had passed.

But physically speaking, he only passed 3 minutes.

"In two weeks, I will be able to completely restore this technology."

For a moment, Weekly felt like a modern-day Einstein.

----

Weekley came to the academy on Saturday.

But there was something strange about the atmosphere in the college. The professors he met on the road looked at him very delicately.

...seems like there is a desire for competition?

"Kitty, come here."

In the office, Vickery called Kitty through the crystal ball, and the other party arrived in less than ten seconds.

"Professor! I'm here."

"Why is there so much chaos in the college these days?"

"Ah, this, it seems because it is a royal announcement."

Kitty held her chin, trying to remember.

"announcement?"

"Well, the empire is recruiting qualified knights, wizards and scholars to be His Majesty's teachers."

Vickrey immediately understood the reason why they were hostile to him.

As a professor, who wouldn’t want to be His Majesty’s teacher?

"Professor, you are the most powerful candidate!"

"...I'll forget it."

Vickery shook his head, Yekarina's teacher was not that easy to be.
