Victor's mind kept echoing those words.

"I thought about it, maybe I need a bed, or the laundry I just did will get dirty."

As if suddenly remembering something, Gwen made another request to Victor.

"Gwen! I'm not your parent! You hear me! I can't take care of you everything!"

......

Gwen got dressed and slept peacefully on the only big bed, as for Victor.

He sat quietly in the chair, expressionless.

He still did it...

Gwen was first hypnotized by magic, and then moved to bed by magic.

"That Gwen should be ruthless."

The Gwen he had seen, always indifferently carried out the orders given by the royal family, was like a ruthless killing machine.

But now she has not reached that level.

Although she treats others indifferently, she still has unnecessary emotions like an ordinary person.

She would keep questioning the boss because there was only one room left.

Even after he helped her, she carefully continued to ask him for what she needed without daring to cross his bottom line.

If she makes a mistake, she will apologize, and her attitude is not as tough as she thought. Of course, she is indeed very strong, but...

"She's not the Gwen I know."

He turned to look at the sleeping Gwen and shook his head.

But this thought has always been in Victor's mind, and he can no longer get rid of it.

......

Gwen stood in front of the queue, directing the knights how to act.

"Today we are going to investigate the volcano. If you find any abnormalities, don't be impulsive and report them in time!"

The knights looked at Gwen, and always felt that she woke up in a very good spirit.

And, is it a little cleaner?

The knights didn't know what happened last night, and Gwen had already looked at Victor beside him.

The knights seemed to show an "oh~" expression.

Victor saw that Gwen had organized his troops, turned around and was about to leave.

"Victor, where are you going?"

"We can escort you to the designated location, or you can directly follow the Knights."

"Need not."

Victor raised his eyebrows and looked at the silent volcano in the distance.

He knew that there was a huge monster silently here, and his mood was mixed with heaviness and excitement.

"I will act separately from you for the time being."

.....

Chapter 17

"why?"

Gwen was puzzled.

Victor came with the Knights, but at this moment he proposed to separate and act alone.

She didn't quite understand, if Victor didn't need the protection of the Knights, then why he would act with the Knights.

Or?

What is his purpose in coming to Mount Vesuvius?

"I want to go to the crater first."

Victor said so.

Under Gwen's righteous heart, all lies will have nowhere to hide.

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

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

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

"Um……"

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

So, he replied.

"That's it."

... What is counting?

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

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

Should, no problem.

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

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

As soon as Victor's voice fell, a blue magic circle with twinkling stars appeared under his feet.

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

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

A knight watched the entire exchange between the two and saw Gwen who was still in a daze. He couldn't help but walked over and asked Gwen.

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

Gwen turned her head and opened her mouth.

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

Before she could finish speaking, the knight continued:

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

"Arguing at the head of the bed and making peace at the end of the bed, there is no overnight feud between husband and wife."

The more Gwen listened to him, the redder she blushed.

"Stop talking nonsense! Let's go!"

She cursed at the knight and left in a hurry.

"Hey? Knight Commander Gwen! I didn't say anything wrong... Sigh, the current girl's family is just hypocritical, so I'm right."

Gwen couldn't quite hear what the knight said later.

Her face was slightly red, like a little girl who had been told something on her mind.

But in fact, she knows better than anyone else.

There is no relationship between her and Victor.

Just as she would never like Victor, it is impossible for Victor to like her.

Gwen stepped onto the white horse, thinking with some gloom in her heart.

If nothing else happens, she may end up marrying Victor.

After all, the marriage contract between the two families had been set long ago.

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

Gwen didn't want to marry, not to mention the old Victor made her feel terrible.

'How could I marry such a bastard. '

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

He is like an elegant nobleman, acting like a gentleman in every move.

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

But when she woke up, she found Victor sitting quietly in a chair all night reading the obscure magic book.

She was very guilty, but Victor told her in turn that their mages have their own means of rest, and they just need to be quiet around them.

Is he...a bastard?

Gwen couldn't help thinking.

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

Even if this person is Victor.

'I should have been quiet last night...'

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

"set off!"

……

A blue rain of light fell out of thin air, forming a teleportation circle in midair, revealing Victor's figure.

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

The surrounding area was so desolate that there was almost nothing, only a few scattered coke-like stones stood on the hillside.

His current location is halfway up the volcano, much ahead of the Knights.
