Team villains except me

Chapter 520 The World is My Oyster

Fiana and Irene remained in France.

But if Lanier goes to war, they can't stay here. As a powerful lord, especially one who wants to become a lord with decision-making power on the continent, they can't openly participate in the internal affairs of other countries.

Fiana and Irene both understood. To avoid suspicion, they also needed to leave evidence that they had nothing to do with Lanier when he went to war.

Fiana happened to have a meeting these days. After some thought, Irene decided that her plan for the Orcish Alliance could be put on the agenda. However, before they could decide on a departure date, they were all packed up and sent away by Nedo Euan.

Before launching the plan, Nedoan evacuated some partners who could not stay in Lanier, including Fiana and Irene. They didn't even have time to say goodbye to Shanna.

When a war is about to begin, the invisible smoke of gunpowder has a smell.

The people, with their keen sense of smell, had a premonition of impending disaster. Many people left Frances, and Sana closed the doors and windows and walked into the room where the weapons were stored.

There will definitely be sacrifices in a confrontation. Even if two people are fighting each other with weapons, there will be losses. Life is precious, and it is even more insignificant in war.

Francie was ready.

Orders were passed down layer by layer, and the fire had already been planted.

Futsu was still peaceful - perhaps, that peace was also a deliberate appearance.

-

When they learned that Fiana and Irene had left Lanier, Nolvia, Hughet and the others were watching Musa take Yalinxiu and Feimei'o to the palace.

Altair had been taken away by his mother a long time ago. Altair wanted to stay several times, but in the end he didn't have the courage to say it.

Fear is a primitive human instinct.

Norvia also had something to fear. That fear had once made her resist knowing anything about the Bright Glory team, even though she knew she shouldn't.

But sometimes, fear is also a motivator.

Nolvia lowered her eyes and turned to discuss with Hught how to apply to the college to postpone the final exams.

Joshua hesitated. He had just contacted Nedoan, who asked him to tell the members of "Send You Home" that this was a project belonging to her and Franche.

"...Nolvaya, I think you can go to the exam normally. Nedoan said that you are her collaborators, but now the plan has changed, and she hopes you can leave. France is now closed to the public, so if you want to leave, you can only leave through Futsu."

"But……"

"Because we can't control it, right?"

Hugh looked at Joshua and pointed out Nedo's original words.

Joshua wanted to say something, but in the end he could only nod.

"Actually, I think you should go too, because the college league is next month, and the final exams have been moved up to next week. If you postpone, then the final exams will have to be after the college league."

"Joshua, you chose to stay in Lanier because Nedoan is here. Yalinxiu is here too."

Nolvia spoke softly.

"Joshua, I can't leave."

"In that case... then you can take the exam first, and then come back after you're done? Nolvia, can you help me pick up Simon when you come back? Even though our team is called 'Wishes Come True', we always seem to be a little bit lacking in luck."

Joshua sighed.

"I don't know what to do. Nedoan won't tell me anything."

Norvia knew this was a form of protection.

She didn't want to leave Lanier, but Suha and Julia sent her messages almost at the same time asking her to return to Abersgar, as they needed to meet with her for something.

Norvia had to leave.

Huet also received news from the sect that he and Nolvia could not leave Lanier at the same time, so he gave Nolvia the information about the sect.

Ellit, Zhuge and Dooku don't want to leave Lanier.

Zhuyi received an invitation to Yuto Academy, where she was exempted from the final exam and received a passing grade. Dooku's puppeteer program was still under construction, so there was no fixed format for his final exam.

Norvia needs to ask for leave for Ellit and Hught, and apply for an extension of the exam.

She saw Duang on the magic circle as she left Futsu. Duang was Nedo's partner, a second-year student in Mehdi. With all the members of the team injured or dead, she was the only one who could move freely.

Duang didn't like to talk. When she saw Nolvia, she nodded as a greeting.

The magic circle takes a long time to run.

Duang didn't know what she was thinking about. She stood up and sat next to Nolvia. It was a very close distance. Nolvia paused for a moment, then turned her head and asked Duang what was wrong.

Duang's voice was like the sound of air flow.

“…I am a prophet.”

The prophet is an emerging profession, a branch of the word master.

Norvia knew this because Teacher Abel mentioned it to them when he was teaching them after the dessert competition.

"I am a water magician."

"I know."

Duang spoke very quickly this time.

She looked up at Nolvia.

"You'll lose something important. Just like me."

After she finished speaking, Duang realized that this sentence sounded like a curse. She was a little flustered and wanted to stand up, but she stopped again. It seemed that this situation had happened many times, and she no longer wanted to explain anything.

Nolvia thought about it. She had touched some of the original appearance of this world, and she did not think it was a curse.

This is more like a reminder.

"Thank you for telling me, Duang."

Duang was stunned for a moment, then she raised her head and looked at Nolvia seriously.

"I... you... your teammates are from the Abyss Clan. I have two teammates who disappeared in the Abyss. So, I thought, if I could get to know you, maybe I could ask you for help in the future. I don't know much besides prophecy. I wish I could say good things, but I'm not a Word Master, and I can't change."

Duang's words were direct.

She took out a pocket watch. Inside the watch was a photo of her and her teammates.

The young people's faces were filled with pure smiles, as if the world would always be young.

Duang pursed his lips and stared at Nolvia.

"Can you take a picture... of the two people on the far right? They disappeared into the abyss. I can't find them. I'm not asking you to find them for me. It's just that every time I come across someone connected to the abyss, I ask them to take a picture. Who knows, maybe one day they'll show up as my teammates?"

My teammates are all my friends. We all came from the same place. Two of my teammates died in the war, two disappeared, and two are in poor health. I came to Lanier because I heard from the Eagle Tribe that there is a God's Stone here. The God's Stone can awaken people.

"I'm so sorry to hear that—"

"The God's Stone doesn't have that much power. I won't come to Lanier again."

Duang put away her pocket watch. She was almost at her destination. She stood up and wanted to say goodbye to Nolvia, but she was stunned for a moment after looking into her blue eyes.

"Have we met before?"

Nolvia thought for a moment and shook her head.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Duang, I don't remember. But I've been to Mehndi Academy, and I think we might have met."

Duang frowned. She didn't think that was the case, but she couldn't remember where she had seen Norvia before. She said goodbye and walked down the circle.

Duang turned around, looked at Nolvia and said something irrelevant.

“—God created the world with words.”

Nolvia thought about Duang's words, lost in thought.

-

"If you are my friends, listen to me."

Within a day, Loretta was already beginning to falter. She looked haggard and her face was sunken.

She was neither like Giddy nor like herself.

When she saw Femeiou and Yalinxiu, her eyes flashed, but she quickly began to drive them away.

"I don't need you. Get out of here."

Loretta's eyes were cold, sinister, and crazy.

"What are you doing here? You'll expose me. If I'm discovered in the palace, I'll be dead soon.

I've died once, I don't have a second life.

Get out of Lanier. It's your bad luck to meet those people. Use your brains to think about it. There is no benefit for you to stay here."

Loretta's words were sharp, and she used them to vent her anxiety, pushing Fermio and Arlenxiu further and further away.

Febryo angrily confronted Loretta for a few words, but she couldn't win the argument, so she walked to the corner of the room and didn't look at Loretta.

Loretta turned to Arlene Hugh.

"Why weren't you here when I was in the most danger? You weren't here yesterday, and coming here now won't change anything. Yalinxiu, I hate you. I hate you so much. Get out of here, get out of the palace with Femeiou."

"Loretta, I'm not a god. I can't foresee death."

Yalinxiu approached Loretta and looked at her carefully.

"Hate me if you want. Don't hate yourself, Loretta. You've done everything right. Felicia and I won't leave. Not until you're completely safe. I'll be with you through this."

Loretta, I want to know what you're going to do. I want to know your plans."

Loretta's voice broke.

"Plan? I don't have a plan. If war breaks out, and if those organizations succeed, I will take advantage of the chaos and kill the king. If they fail, I will become the new king."

"Loretta, the war will start soon."

Yalinxiu lowered her eyes and held Loretta's cold hand.

"I am your ally. I want you to live, in whatever capacity. So, we need a plan."

Loretta slowly withdrew her hand. Her expression was utterly broken.

"Alive? Loretta is completely dead. Now, you should call me Gidi. If Valerie and the others win, and I can reveal the truth, then I can still survive. But Yalinxiu, tell me, with about a month of planning, can resistance organizations with different goals in different places really succeed in a country like Lanier? Where is the chance of victory? Who will it be? Deling, Franche, or those local lords?

I don't think they'll win. I see no hope. But, Yalinxiu, if they lose, I'm their only hope. When the king dies, I'll be the new king. I can slowly change the female eagle's living space. I can change Rainier.

But I am Gide. Everything I do will become Gide's achievement. If I weren't Gide, those eagles wouldn't listen to me. But when I was Gide, Loretta's existence was erased. Loretta did nothing and died young.

Why? Why me? Have I ever been happy? Have I ever been completely happy? Why am I suffering so much, struggling so hard, when nothing I've done is mine? No one's on my side! No one! What have I done wrong?

Obviously, I want Musa to buy me a gift, and I'm already ready to make new friends. I've already drawn the bedroom I want..."

Loretta bit her lip, refusing to let herself cry.

"Ya Linxiu, aren't you very smart? Tell me why I have to endure all the unfairness, why I always stand on the opposite side of everyone, why I always have to suffer misunderstandings and exploitation, why I have to..."

Loretta's voice distorted.

She stopped accusing, her body seemed covered with cracks.

Yalinxiu held her hand again. This time, it was very tight.

"Loretta, you will not be forgotten. You will not die as a Jedi. We will find a way. But now, it's time for you to shout."

"why?"

"The king knows that Femei'o and I are your friends. Musa led us here to find the murderer of our friend, and it's impossible for us not to take action against you. The king is using you to appease Musa. It seems that he doesn't love his son very much either."

"He certainly did not love his son. The king had seen Gidi so seldom that he could not remember what he looked like, nor how small and thin he had been in his original form."

Loretta paused, then she yelled.

"Don't hit me—don't touch me—"

Loretta was quickly rescued by the king's men, but Arinth and Fermio remained in the palace as Giddy's subordinates.

This is the condition proposed by Musa.

At this stage, the king almost granted Musa's request. The more extreme the conditions, the more reassuring the king would be. The king was also surprised by Musa's tolerance, but he could understand it, after all, Persila was still alive.

But Persilla would soon die, and the king wished she could live forever.

When Persilla asked to see Gidi, the king did not refuse.

The king was disgusted with his reckless son. He felt that Gidi should pay a price for what he had done. He could accept being beaten, but he hadn't considered whether Gidi could accept it.

He knew that the subordinates Musa recommended to Jidi were some of Loretta's followers, and he also knew that Jidi would be beaten. As a responsible father, he would not let Jidi be beaten for long.

Gidi also needs to see Persilla.

Pescilla is so old that even a few hits from him won’t be enough to hurt Gidi.

However, Pesilla wasn't simply going to hit Giddi a few times.

She knew that she didn't have much time left to live, and she wanted to do something for Musa.

Like, for example, getting rid of Loretta's killer.

Persilla had rehearsed the scene of her meeting Gideon many times in her mind, but when she turned around, she was still stunned.

"Jidi" saluted her with eyes that looked very much like Musa's.

"Good day, Percilla."
