As a villain, I raised a defeated dog to become a black boss

"Is this the person you are looking for?"

At this moment, a voice from the side interrupted Yi'er's thoughts.

She turned around and saw that it was the driver who had just gotten off the carriage.

"It's not just us, many people are looking for it." Pevlan said, "What? What information do you have?"

"I saw someone who was indeed somewhat similar a few days ago, but he was queuing up in front of a carriage heading to the capital..."

"!?"

Yiel's ears perked up.

"I don't want to get involved with the royal family. I thought he was going to the capital. I guess he went back at the princess's request, so I didn't care much."

"It's very, very possible!" Yiel nodded sharply, "If it's the young master... after reading the missing person notice, he might go directly to the capital to find His Highness Treya!"

Yiel looked at Peflan.

"Then, the most likely possibility is... Shona is with him, let's... let's go to the capital from here!"

She is too tough to be a submissive maid taking care of people.

As if she was the captain.

Chapter 235 Sneaking into the Capital

Watching the carriage slowly drive into the capital, Will would always think of the first time he came here three years ago.

On the carriage that led from the System family's house to the capital, Iel showed for the first time that she could defeat someone of the witch's level.

Moreover, I also met the Witch Leia for the first time - although only from a distance.

Sitting on the carriage, he could see the tallest bell tower of the school and the royal castle on the hill behind the capital—it was also the place where he often saw Treya.

One fortunate thing is that in Entak, it is not troublesome to enter and exit the capital. At least every passenger on the carriage will not be interrogated. As long as the carriage has its own entry and exit permit, it can enter and exit freely.

This gives some room for bribery with "money".

"Huh... take it, this money."

"The young master is really generous. He only gave me so much for a day's drive."

Hearing the coachman's praise, Will pulled his hat lower so that he could not fully see his face.

"You don't lack this, let's go quickly."

"No, no, I'm just surprised that adventurers still go to the capital. Even if you are the young master of a certain family, this is a bit surprising."

"Huh? Why are you surprised by this? Isn't the capital the center of the country?"

"But, there are no dungeons nearby, and even the Adventurers Association is restricted. Plus..."

The coachman lowered his voice, looking and speaking like a guy talking about ulterior secrets on the street——

"The royal family has been in turmoil recently, and everyone has spread the word. The atmosphere in the capital is very bad."

"Yeah. I know. I...I'm just here to solve this problem."

Will smiled under the brim of his hat.

The turbulent royal family will become particularly "stable" as long as one person can temporarily suppress the others.

He wanted Traya, who was sensitive yet heavy and looking for him, to be that person.

"Master, master, don't say that, it will be bad if you get involved."

"Will not."

He said this confidently.

——I know the royal family very well.

It was just the second half of the sentence that he didn't finish.

Will said goodbye to the coachman and looked again at the city he had been away from for two months - thinking that he had not been away for a long time, but he always felt that this place had become a lot stranger.

It was already evening when Will arrived in the capital.

The town of Tsemaat is worthy of being a "nearby" city that can provide fruits to the capital. Even with the simplest carriage, it only takes less than a day to reach the capital.

This may be...

Maybe it’s because of Carver’s restrictions on “Tenth Castlevania”.

Having a dungeon so close to the royal family that is not actually weak and can provide a lot of scarce resources is indeed a threat.

What's more, this dungeon sounds like a "demon-type" dungeon that has the closest connection with the Entak royal family...

According to the original work, Carver hid behind the "Revolutionary Army" and promoted the resistance against the Entak royal family, which was a year and a half ago.But it seems that he was dissatisfied with the royal family and started to suppress it from his own point of view a long time ago.

If according to what Lucifer revealed, the deeper the dungeon is dug, the more and better resources can be dug out, then the threat will be even greater.

"Huh...it's just that the driver has some misunderstanding...about my identity as an adventurer."

Will turned around and saw that the coachman had stopped very naturally...

In front of the Adventurers Association in the capital.

Under the gloomy sky, the door of this Adventurer's Association was still as shabby as the one he came to three years ago. However, there were some lights inside, but it was not lively. Unlike other Adventurers' Associations, which were often able to I heard the noisy sound of eating and drinking inside.

The most prestigious adventurers association in other places is like a rundown tavern in the capital that is about to close down.

It's not that Carver is targeting the royal family unilaterally. The Entak royal family was already very wary of adventurers and dungeon matters before Carver started.

Because the things dug out of the dungeon are very "uncontrollable".

They climbed up precisely because they obtained the "Devil's Pot" from the dungeon.

"but……"

"Although because the capital is her territory, I have been mentally prepared for a long time..."

"But why are my big pictures plastered all over here?!"

Will looked at these, and he didn't dare to pick off any of them.

I always feel like there are a hundred "Wills" staring at me when I walk on the street.

He didn't really like to look at his face in the mirror. Firstly, it didn't look good, and secondly, if he looked at it for a long time, he would always think of the expression of a comedian who would be smashed to death by a slime.

but……

These "missing person notices" completely completed his own face that he had not seen for more than ten years in his life.

"Is this what you want?"

Walking through the streets covered with his "Missing Person" notices, Will once again looked up at the royal castle that shrouded his head.

"...Treya."

However, from the moment he landed, Will felt something strange...

Why……

Why does he feel a little flustered even though he's already here?

Is it because there are more missing person notices posted in the capital, on Treya's territory, and you feel like you are surrounded?

Or because...

This city has an ominous atmosphere as a whole. When walking here, I always feel like there are all kinds of eyes staring at me, which makes people feel a little uncomfortable.

drop--

Will, who was already feeling a little uncomfortable because of the atmosphere in the capital, found that it was actually raining now.

He raised his head and couldn't see clearly the sunny and cloudy sky. Raindrops slowly drifted down. The raindrops seemed to be slowly coming out of the darkness, lighting up the lights around him and falling on the tip of his nose.

"You have to hold an umbrella..."

When Will said this, he remembered that when it rained in the past, it was Iel who held an umbrella for him.

Now that she is not around, he even forgets to bring an umbrella.

"Forget it. I may need to stay here for a few more days, and I have to find a reliable blacksmith to make what I have."

Wilmore was stroking the ring that Leah gave him as a birthday gift. It not only stored various props given to him by Lucifer, but also the materials for making shields for Yiel that he had obtained in the Moonlight Bingji.

Snowsong Holy Shield·Elementary level.

Shadow Nightmare Sword·Elementary level.

At least these two pieces of equipment had to be made by an iron shop - someone had recommended one before.

During this time, he will also inquire about the royal family's news in the city, and make sufficient preparations before going to Thereya.

"Phew... the rain is actually getting heavier."

"So...where should I stay?"

Small hotels should all need to verify his identity.

The weather has cooled down, and it is not suitable to sleep on the streets with those people.

Then the best choice is...

"Yes, I am a person who owns a house in the capital!"

"People who have houses in the capital!"

"People who own houses!"

"In the capital!"

After he stamped his feet excitedly, he realized that the sound was a bit loud, and quickly calmed down a little, walked through the crowd and entered a path.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Click.

The door that had not been opened for two months was opened by him.

It was as if the memory box of the past three years in the capital had been reopened.

Although he really disliked Carver, he had to say that sometimes, his rich father was indeed very useful.

This house he left for himself to study in allowed him to spend three years that can be said to be very happy.

This small three-story residence, when he and Yiel first arrived, was covered with dust and had no living utensils. It was just an empty house.

But now, behind every piece of furniture, there are tons of memories——

At the table facing the door, they had dinner together and talked about the real "adventure" they would start after forming an adventure team.

In the kitchen, there are "affordable and easy-to-use" pots and pans carefully selected by Yi Aier - although Will has repeatedly told her that the funds are sufficient and there is no need to save on these.

At the corner of the stairs, there is a small bookshelf, which is filled with rare magic books that Leah used the school's funds to buy. She picked up one in a few months and has already filled the entire bookshelf.

When he walked into the room, on top of the cabinet were various rare and precious baubles from the royal family that Treya had given him. Some were shining with gold, and some were inlaid with beautiful gems.

"It's a pity. If there is a chance, I would like to have a few more real adventures with you..."

"Just like we imagined here."

Will sighed and wiped the dust off the table in his room.

In those days, he read the "Mission System" over and over again here, filling in and modifying things.

Speaking of which, he didn't keep that book handy after that...

It’s been a long time since I just followed the flow of activities “without a mission”.

Will sat down and used the fire magic at his fingertips to light the lamp that he had not lit for a long time. Then he took out a notebook that didn't seem to have much writing on it from the notebook stacked next to it.

"Oh...this seems to be...magical computing..."

Will smiled awkwardly. There was nothing in this notebook except for some theories written on the first two pages. The middle to the end were completely new.

He sighed and turned to the last page of his notebook.

This was his habit since he was a student in his previous life. If he still wanted to use a notebook with several pages written in the front, he would start from the last page and write backwards.

"Let me think about it...um..."

"Just write it like this -"

He started writing.
