Online game: Confession of love to a noble daughter at the beginning

Chapter 17

"Why?"

Gwen was a little confused.

Victor came with the Knights, but now he actually proposed to separate and act alone.

She didn't quite understand why Victor followed the Knights if he didn't need the Knights' protection.

Or what?

What was his purpose in coming to Mount Vesuvius?

"I'm going to the crater first."

That's what Victor said.

With Gwen's sense of justice, all lies will be exposed.

But he didn't lie, which means Victor really planned to go to the crater.

Gwen remembered the reason why Victor accompanied him in the first place.

"Could it be that the monster you mentioned is on the crater?"

"Hmm..."

Victor was silent for a while, and at this moment, he thought of the figure of the monstrous monster in his heart.

So, he replied.

"I guess so."

...What do you mean by "I guess so"?

But the other party hadn't lied yet, and Gwen was a little curious, but she was not someone who liked to pry into other people's privacy.

After all, this is a dead volcano, and Victor also said that he is very familiar with the terrain of Mount Vesuvius.

There shouldn't be any problems.

Gwen nodded and agreed to his request to leave the team.

"I will take the initiative to find you after I finish my business."

As soon as Victor finished speaking, a blue magic circle with twinkling stars appeared under his feet.

The blue light flashed, and his figure disappeared without a trace.

A living person disappeared directly in front of him, making Gwen a little dazed.

A knight watched the whole conversation between the two, and seeing Gwen still in a daze, he couldn't help but walk over and ask Gwen.

"Knight Commander? Did you two... have a conflict last night?"

Gwen turned around and opened his mouth.

"No, it's not what you think..."

Before she finished, the knight continued:

"It's normal for couples to have conflicts. I often quarrel with my wife, but our son is eight years old."

"Fight at the head of the bed and make up at the foot of the bed. There is no overnight hatred between husband and wife."

The more Gwen listened to him, the redder her face became.

"Stop talking nonsense! Hurry up and leave!"

She cursed at the knight and left in a hurry.

"Hey? Knight Gwen! I didn't say anything wrong... Alas, girls nowadays are just hypocritical, and I can see that I was right."

Gwen didn't hear what the knight said later.

Her face was slightly red, like a little girl whose heart was told.

But in fact, she knew better than anyone.

There was no relationship between her and Victor.

Just like she would never like Victor, Victor would never like her.

Gwen got on the white horse, thinking a little gloomy in her heart.

If nothing unexpected happens, she might still marry Victor in the end.

After all, the marriage contract between the two families has been decided long ago.

Gwen is the second daughter of the family. She can only obey the family's decision and cannot change it.

Gwen doesn't want to get married, not to mention that the previous Victor made her feel very bad.

'How could I marry such a bastard? '

With this thought in her mind, she suddenly recalled what happened last night.

He was like an elegant nobleman, and every move was like a gentleman.

I don't even know when he gave up the only bed to her.

When she woke up, she found that Victor was sitting quietly in a chair, looking at the obscure magic book, sitting all night.

She felt guilty, but Victor told her in return that they, the mages, had their own way of resting, and they just needed to be quiet around them.

Is he... a bastard?

Gwen couldn't help thinking in her heart.

Determined to become a knight of absolute justice, Gwen didn't really hate anyone.

Even if this person is Victor.

‘I should have been quite quiet last night…’

Shaking off those extra thoughts in her mind, she raised the silver sword in her hand and swung it forward.

“Let’s go!”

…

A blue rain of light fell from nowhere, forming a teleportation array in the air, revealing Victor’s figure.

He opened his eyes, and the scenery around him had changed significantly.

The surroundings were so desolate that there was almost nothing, with only a few scattered charcoal-like stones standing on the hillside.

He was now halfway up the volcano, much ahead of the Knights.

This was the maximum range where teleportation magic could be used.

It was indeed not very realistic to teleport to the top of the mountain in one breath.

Seeing that there was no one around, Vega on his shoulder spoke to him in a hoarse voice:

“Why did you choose to separate from them?”

“KnightThe group's route should be consistent with yours. Follow them and you will get here sooner or later. "

Victor pressed its head and explained:

"I don't need their company."

"There are some things that I need to investigate myself. There is no need to let others know."

Vega was very strange. Looking at Victor's appearance, he seemed to have planned it for a long time.

Thinking of his interest when he heard about Mount Vesuvius, it was hard for Vega not to suspect that the other party knew something.

A man and a bird walked on Mount Vesuvius, which had erupted once.

However, after that time, Mount Vesuvius lost its power to erupt and became a dead volcano.

The residents at the foot of the mountain built a town here, and it has a history of hundreds of years.

After hundreds of years of wind and sun, the ground here has long formed a lime-like charcoal, full of cracks. scars and weathered volcanic rocks.

Want to see some plants here? That's a bit difficult.

However, after hundreds of years, no one is worried that the volcano will erupt again.

The volcano is about a few hundred meters high, and he soon reached the top of the mountain.

The closer he got to the top of the mountain, the more clearly Victor could feel the extremely rich fire element.

Not only him, but Vega also had the same feeling.

It turned its head and glanced at Victor with a subtle look.

"Interesting, I really want to open your head to see how you came here."

"You actually found a 'disaster'. "

Victor looked very calm, and Vega understood that he had known that there was something here.

Disaster.

To be precise, this is the specific name of the furnace monster recorded in history.

There are six disasters in the world, corresponding to six magical elements.

Wind, wood, fire, earth, water, and thunder.

And the Vesuvius volcano is sealing the fire disaster, Guldun.

Its body is so huge that it seems to ascend to the sky, and the furnace fire pours all over its body, like a demon in the fire.

The reason why they are called disasters is that once they appear, they will cause natural disasters and chaos in a piece of land, and they are so powerful that people are terrified.

Their existence is only bad for any creature, not good.

This is the "disaster", just as the name suggests.

"I'm curious, it's "sleeping" here well, what are you looking for it for?"

Vega looked at Guldun under the crater and asked Victor.

"Collect some interest in advance. "

Victor stood on the crater, looking down at the inside.

It was so deep that one could not see the bottom, and even doubted whether there was anything inside.

Hot air gushed out from the mountain mouth, and the amazing heat hit him.

His eyes suddenly became very determined.

The cold wind and the hot air mixed together and blew his windbreaker. At this moment, standing at the highest point of the volcano, he could hardly hear the voice of Vega beside him.

"Hey, hey, what are you doing here? Are you going to jump from this place?"

Victor did not respond, and Vega was silent for a while.

"You, won't, really, jump, right?"

Its word-by-word questioning did not work at all.

Because Victor had already said to it:

"Hold on!"

After that, he jumped towards the volcano with a depth of 100 meters.

"Why don't you ask my opinion! ! ! ! ! "

The red-hot rock scenery around him kept falling, and Vega held Victor's clothes tightly with his beak.

At this time, he even forgot that he was still a bird with wings.

The scene in front of him kept shaking, and finally...

After a flash of white light, the figures of the two disappeared in the air.

......

"I have been a god for so long, but this is the first time I feel so crazy."

When Vega opened his eyes, he seemed to have come to another space.

It was pitch black around him, and the only thing visible to the naked eye was the floor.

"It's so dark, Victor? Victor? "

Victor was right behind it. When he saw the crow wake up, he picked it up and put it on his shoulder.

Vega just wanted Victor to light a fire to illuminate the surroundings, but before he could say anything, a huge snoring sounded in the darkness in front of it.

It almost deafened the crow's ears.

"Damn, who is snoring, uh..."

Vega stopped talking.

It saw the source of the snoring, or...

At this moment, it was right in front of Vega, sleeping with its eyes closed.

How to describe it appropriately?

It was like a giant pillar rising into the sky.

It was as tall as a mountain, shocking and terrifying.

Fire disaster, Guldun,Just appeared in front of them.

A cold sweat broke out on Vega's head, and the hair on his head looked much brighter.

"Boy, do you want to challenge it?"

"Don't joke! I'm just an ordinary bird now, I can't help you with anything!"
