In addition, the college's selection focuses more on personal abilities rather than family background. The current Dean Bach was originally a baron.

Therefore, Evelin resolutely participated in the competition. She believed in the fairness of this selection.

Even in the face of a lot of external pressure and intimidation from Vickrey, she never gave up.

But today....

"Evelin, if you don't want our family to perish, resign from the college now..."

Her father's unusually weak voice broke Evelin's psychological defense.

My father, who was once extremely strong, no longer has the confidence to fight anymore.

Vickery's revenge was not only directed at herself, but also spread to the entire family.

Originally, the Josephine family she belonged to was on an equal footing with the big families such as Pod and Pearl.

But the Wizards' Council 12 years ago changed everything.

As a result, his father was seriously injured and lost his magic power, and the Josephine family also lost its former glory.

Today's Vickrey is simply not something they can compete with.

This is not a problem that she can solve alone. Weekley's revenge is more serious than expected.

Not only is the safety of his father, mother, sister and other family members threatened, but even the entire family's industry is collapsing.

Vickrey is in the process of hostilely acquiring all the stores under their names.

Her research has been shut down, various bills are piling up, and Josephine's family is currently on the edge of a cliff, facing imminent bankruptcy.

----

wow wow wow.

It was pouring rain in the sky.

Evelin was walking on the road, soaked through the rain.

More than resentment

A huge feeling of powerlessness enveloped her deeply.

"stop."

Outside the door of Vickery Mansion, which was not even as luxurious as the palace, guards stopped Evelin.

"I have something to see Vickrey."

"No, no one can enter without making a reservation in advance."

"I know, just say that Evelin is here, and he will definitely come back to see me."

"No."

"...Get out of the way! I really have something urgent to tell him."

Evelin tried to rush in, but several guards hurriedly stopped her, pushing and shoving her, making her very embarrassed.

"What happened?"

A voice ended the commotion.

Inside the door, Vickery was holding an umbrella and looking down at her.

That look was full of disdain and contempt, and Evelin felt sick to her stomach when she saw it.

"Is it you again, Evelyn?"

Vickery frowned.

Evelin pushed the guard away and straightened her hair that stuck to her face due to the rain.

She stared at Vickery closely, but she couldn't open her mouth. Those were words she clearly didn't want to say.

"..."

After a long time, Evelin bit her lip.

"……I give up."

Her voice was extremely hoarse, and her heart seemed to be bleeding.

"give up?"

Vickery bent over like a stray dog.

"Well, I give up."

Evelin said tremblingly.

"...So stop it, Vickrey, you win."

"Oh?"

The corners of Vickrey's mouth raised slightly, as if he heard something funny.

“Evelin, I don’t understand what you are talking about at all…”

Vickrey slowly took a step towards her, his gray pupils full of coldness.

"If you're here to apologize, you might want to change your stance."

Under the umbrella, a red light flashed in his eyes.

"You are too proud now, I hate it."

Evelin bit her lip, blood mixed with rain running down the corners of her mouth.

"……Apologize?"

"That's right, I was the one who helped your family after they were defeated by the Wizards' Council. It was all because of me that we didn't die because of it."

Vickery's tone was calm, as if he was saying something that was natural.

"Originally, I didn't care about what you did in the Wizards' Council, so I was generous, but you just jumped out of nowhere and wasted all my good intentions. Shouldn't you apologize?"

Evelin clenched her fists and glared at him viciously.

Vickery narrowed his eyes, as if he had found some interesting toy.

"...Not a bad reaction, but unfortunately your family is destined to become history."

After saying that, Vickery turned around.

At that moment, Evelin's heart was in confusion, and the sky seemed to be falling.

Although she wanted to turn around and leave, for the sake of her family, she couldn't escape no matter what.

Looking at Vickrey's retreating back, Evelin shouted.

"and many more!"

Vickery stopped and turned to look at her.

"...I understand, and I will apologize."

Evelin's knees trembled slightly, and her body slowly sank, kneeling on the ground.

Snapped.

Mud mixed with rain seeped into her clothes.

"..."

This time, even Vickery was a little surprised.

"……sorry."

Evelin lowered her head and shed tears of humiliation.

Soon, a disappointed sneer fell.

"It's ridiculous."

Vickrey walked slowly, and at the same time, the rain fell harder.

"A family that is less than a century old is trying to compete with me..."

Vickery stepped lightly on her hand, pressing down hard like a brand.

Compared with the physical pain, Evelin's heart felt like it was being pricked by needles, and there was a tearing pain.

“Evelin, you look even more disgusting than before.”

Chapter 120 Hate

boom!

Vickrey kicked Evelin, mud poured into her mouth, and her cheeks became red and swollen.

Evelin fell to the ground and groaned miserably.

"Get out now. If you want your family to be safe, don't let me see you again in the imperial capital."

After saying that, Vickery turned around and left without any regrets, leaving only Evelin where she was.

The guards guarded the door again, and heavy rain covered her body...

As soon as the rain stopped the next day, Evelin went to the college to submit her resignation letter. After that, her family left the empire and everything returned to peace.

---

But Evelin has not forgotten the humiliation of that day.

After coming to the Kangong Kingdom as a professor, she worked almost selflessly.

Evelin wrote several papers, developed many new magics, made a lot of money, and successfully revived her family...

Now, she's back.

Standing in the imperial city, Evelin felt as if she was on a battlefield. The guards looked at her in awe, which made her truly feel that the present was different from the past.

He finally had the same status as Vickrey.

"Evelyn Josephine!"

His Majesty even called out her name himself.

Facing such grace, Evelin felt as if she owned the whole world.

But the next moment,

"Wakele Pod."

When I heard the name again and saw his face,

In an instant.

"..."

Evelin swore secretly.

This time, she won't back down.

She will definitely repay the humiliation she suffered that day twice as much!

Secretly sharpening the sharp edge in her heart, Evelin stood up.

----

In the palace, Vickery looked at Evelin next to him.

I have to say, she makes a pretty good impression on people, and she has a very natural affinity. Is she a mixed-blood Elf?

"Huh, I heard that in the three years since I left, our chief professor's research has still not made any progress?"

It's just that there is a thorn in his words, and he is obviously quite hostile to himself.

"To shut up."

"..."

Vikra responded mercilessly.

After playing the role of Vickrey for so long, he understands that there is no need to be kind to those who are hostile to him.

It's impossible for the other party to change their opinion because of this.
