Well, actually Victor himself doesn’t quite understand Gwen now.

However, he believed that during this time, Gwen probably hated him.

After all, no woman would like a man who puts on a bad face every day, is petty, and even does all kinds of bad things.

The relationship between the fiancée and the married couple, I am afraid that until the end, it will be the stain of the great knight Gwen's life.

So after Victor's death, she never married.

"Get ready, it's time for us to go in."

He bowed his head and reminded the crow on his shoulder, and the crow quickly straightened up with a look of 'I'm just a pet', standing lazily and motionless on his shoulder.

After a while, the maid came to the carriage, told him respectfully that Miss Gwen was ready, and invited him in.

Victor got out of the carriage, led the maid through the gate, and brought him to the conference hall.

As soon as he came in, he saw Gwen.

The other party was sitting on a soft sofa, without dressing up, wrapped in a tight bathrobe, not showing any skin.

It looked like she had just come out of the shower.

But she doesn't need to dress up either. In Victor's view, even if she has no makeup, this exquisite and perfect face is enough to capture any man.

"It's so late, what are you doing here?"

Gwen's tone was neither warm nor calm, and there was a sense of alienation.

Victor sat across from her unceremoniously, with the same tone, straight to the point.

"I heard that you are going on a mission and won't come back for half a month."

Gwen didn't wonder where he heard it from, and nodded sincerely.

"Well, leave in a week."

"Can you take me with you?"

Gwen: "..."

Upon hearing this, her reaction was a little... subtle.

First he was a little confused, and then he frowned, as if he was confirming again and again.

Finally, she leaned back, and an expression of disbelief gradually appeared on her face.

Gwen put her hand on her forehead, lowered her head, and asked again.

"Repeat what you just said."

"Can you take me with you?"

Without hesitation, Victor repeated.

"call……"

Gwen exhaled softly, she always felt that the other person had broken his brain.

"What's the reason?"

"Without a suitable reason, I can't take you with me."

Victor: "I know the terrain of the surrounding mountains very well, including the weaknesses of the monsters scattered around. Take me with you. Counting the round-trip distance, you only need seven days to come back."

Hearing what he said, Gwen didn't raise her eyes, and she didn't know whether she was considering Victor's value or didn't care at all.

Victor still wanted to say something to increase his value in Gwen's eyes, but Gwen blocked his mouth first.

"What I want is the truth."

Victor's eyes became colder, he looked at Gwen, and said slowly: "...you used your ability on me."

As an innately righteous knight, Gwen Derlin has displayed his unique talent since childhood.

She has a heart of justice.

As long as she thinks about it, she can clearly tell whether the other person is lying or not.

Gwen can freely control this ability, so she will not use her ability when it is not necessary.

However, she didn't believe in herself.

Victor didn't feel so angry, but it was somewhat expected.

Because this side proves how much Gwen hates him.

When talking to him, Gwen will even use her righteous heart to gauge whether he is lying or not.

"I don't trust you."

Gwen was very straightforward and didn't have any further explanations.

Suddenly, Victor smiled in relief.

He thought for a while, then said again:

"There is a kind of monster in Mount Vesuvius, and they will produce a unique spar. I need that kind of thing to make magic props."

After all, there was a strong desire in Victor's eyes.

[First-order magic: self-suggestion]

Effect: Give yourself hypnotic hints, and within a period of time, any ability can be randomly increased by 1 level.

Dealing with Gwen's righteous heart is easy, he just needs to tell the truth.

Even if the truth was fabricated on the spot, as long as Victor believes it, it is the truth.

A mage also has his own means, that is, flexible morality and a wise mind.

Gwen finally looked up at Victor.

"It seems you do know that volcano, otherwise you wouldn't have said such a thing."

"Even the Royal Knights can be used as your bodyguard for their own purposes."

"As expected of you, selfish Victor."

Victor did not put on his poker face after a long absence, and nodded with a smile.

"I will accept this sentence as a compliment."

Gwen will never doubt Victor from the perspective of selfishness, because he is such a person.

She also knew that Victor would only pester her more and more in order to achieve his goal.

That being the case, it is better to agree.

"I will apply for an accompanying mage, and you can come to see me that day."

Seeing that Gwen agreed, Victor smiled back and said, "Thank you, Knight Gwen, who is willing to help selflessly even for a selfish person like me."

"I will arrange everything in this week, and I don't need to send it anymore."

After that, Victor stood up and left.

Gwen nodded and watched him leave.

However, in his head, Victor's smiling face when he complimented him couldn't get rid of it for a long time.

Victor, have you ever laughed like that?

Back on the carriage, Victor leaned back on the seat calmly, his jet-black eyes staring at nowhere.

"Are you angry?"

Crow asked suspiciously.

"Why do you think so?"

Vega: "I've been watching your poker face for a long time, it's just my intuition."

"If you don't have too much emotion, you won't smile like a chrysanthemum."

angry?

After hearing its words, Victor thought for a moment.

Maybe the education he cultivated in his bones made him want to be a good person, but he was so selfish as said by the other party's righteousness.

And only by pretending to be what she thinks she can be recognized by that person.

Not to be angry.

It just made him feel a little sick.

.....

During these days, Victor taught at the academy during the day and buried himself in the basement researching magic potions at night.

As long as there are enough materials, he can make a hundred bottles a day, and all these can be handed over to Liya for sale.

Liya said that when the store is renovated, these potions will be on the shelves, and only this potion will be sold for the time being.

You have to build up the reputation of the shop before you can consider purchasing other magic items.

Of course, Victor knew that once this kind of consumable was put on the shelves, it would definitely cause panic buying.

So he told Liya not to sell all of them, and limited to fifty bottles a day.

Hunger marketing.

Liya is a businessman herself, so she knows everything.

At the college, Victor was not idle either. On the one hand, he was thinking about the topic of the lecture, and on the other hand, he made a decision.

Every time he had a class, he would ask Heni to sit on the sidelines.

As the name suggests, absorb experience.

Erica comes to his office every night, often with many questions to ask, and she comes more and more often.

Although Victor was a little annoyed, Vega took the trouble to answer everything.

In order to keep Vega from chattering in his mind, he had no choice but to convey everything to Erica.

By the way, I can also get some magic knowledge from Vega.
