The Villain Saint is my secondary account

He used to drink it in small amounts to prevent any toxins from taking effect too late, but the taste of this drink was really unbearable. It was like snot mixed with chili powder, and drinking it in small amounts was too torturous for him.

Seeing that Ye Xiao had finished his drink, Dekali simply pinched his nose, grabbed the cup, and poured it into his mouth.

"Yue".

Decali frowned, and after finishing the drink, he became even more certain that no one would mistake this for alcohol.

"Is it ready to move in now?"

Ye Xiao asked from the side.

"There's still one more cup."

The green-skinned shopkeeper took away the two empty glasses and then looked at the remaining one.

Ye Xiao and Decari followed the gaze and saw the wine placed in front of Agnes.

The girl's face was completely bloodless, wet with sweat. She felt like vomiting just from the smell of the tavern. Making her drink this unknown stuff was worse than killing her.

"Hey guys, is there some young lady here who can't even drink?"

Below, a minotaur wearing only a loincloth burst into laughter.

"You delicate human, go back to drinking your milk, hahaha!"

The jeers from all around grew increasingly shrill. Agnes bit her lip tightly under the scrutiny of many eyes, her hands trembling as she gripped the burlap.

In the end, she picked up the wine glass, nervously brought it to her lips, and took a sip.

As the thick, foul-smelling acid swirled in her throat, Agnes almost reflexively vomited onto the bar counter in front of her.

Chapter Eight: The Kidnapping Plan

Immediately, a burst of laughter erupted from the crowd.

Agnes was seething with anger, but in this situation, she dared not lash out.

The owner's face darkened as he looked at the bar counter, which was covered in vomit.

"I'm sorry, but it seems that the wine here doesn't really suit most people's tastes."

Ye Xiao waved his hand.

Just as Ye Xiao thought the green-skinned boss was about to lash out, the other party unexpectedly snorted and then beckoned over a hunched old goblin to wipe the dirt off the table.

"There's one room left across the street, two silver coins a night, plus three cups of wine, that's three silver coins."

Ye Xiao raised an eyebrow, then turned his gaze to Dekari.

Decali reluctantly took out the silver coins from his purse and quickly left this troublesome place with Agnes.

Following the directions, they wandered around for a while before finally finding the place the owner had mentioned in a dilapidated building in an alley across from the tavern.

The old stairwell walls were covered in moss and cracks. They found the corresponding door number, unlocked the door with the key, and as soon as they pushed the door open, a cold, damp smell rushed out of the room.

Along with the smell came a rat and several strange insects with tentacles. As long-time residents, they seemed to be quite intelligent, and instead of running towards Ye Xiao and Decari's feet, they insisted on crawling into Agnes's shoes.

“Damn it!!!”

The latter finally couldn't help but scream, and was then pulled into the room by Ye Xiao.

Decali came in shortly after and closed the not-so-secure, dilapidated door.

"What are you doing?! Why are you pulling me again?!"

Once they reached a secluded spot, with only a few of them left in the room, Agnes's temper flared up again.

"This place is a mixed bag, and the soundproofing isn't great either. Shouting will attract unnecessary attention."

Ye Xiao explained.

"If this won't work and that won't work, then what use are you to me?!"

Agnes grabbed the wet linen cloth from her body and threw it on the ground, but without the cloth to wrap her up, the chill of early winter suddenly rose from the soles of her feet, causing her to sneeze violently.

Agnes was caught off guard by the sudden sneeze. She leaned forward and slipped, falling face-first to the ground.

Ye Xiao had seen people fall while walking on flat ground before, but this was the first time she had ever seen someone fall while standing still, and she couldn't help but laugh out loud.

This little girl always manages to bring him some inexplicable amusement.

This seemed to be the final straw that broke Agnes's spirits. She got up with a gloomy face, her wet hair falling over her face, which was flushed red with anger.

"What are you laughing at!?"

"What are you laughing at?!"

Ye Xiao shrugged and wiped the corners of his mouth from his smile. As Orfino's stand-in, laughing during a scene would indeed be an insult to his acting career.

But this guy is really funny.

Agnes, seeing that Ye Xiao still wasn't stopping his laughter, jumped up and down in anger, "You're still laughing at me, Orphnoch?! Don't you know your place?!"

"You stinking dog!!! You damn stinking dog!!!"

"I'm a nobleman!!! You made my clothes soaked!! I drank that disgusting horse piss!! And now I have to live in this dog shit place that's worse than a cesspool!!!"

"And then you laughed!!?? You were fucking laughing!!??"

"I raised you all these years, and you've been utterly useless, all I did was let you laugh at a time like this!???"

Seeing that Agnes was losing her temper, Decari quickly reached out to comfort her, but this action only drew insults from her.

"And you, Decarri!!! You're the damn culprit!!!"

"If it weren't for your damn bad idea!! Would I have to live in a place like this and suffer this damn torment!???"

“Then you can go back, Agnes.”

Ye Xiao suddenly spread her hands, "It's not far from the dock, you can just go back yourself if you want."

Agnes froze, as if she couldn't believe what she had just heard.

She turned her head and stared at Ye Xiao with a murderous look in her eyes. "What did you just say?? Orphnoch???"

I told you you can go back.

Ye Xiao showed no mercy to Agnes, "Have you forgotten that you've already dismissed me from the Holy Temple's staff?"

"To put it nicely, I only brought you along out of old friendship, but in reality, besides acting as a compass, do you really think you're of any use?"

"you!??"

Agnes's chest heaved with anger. She pointed a trembling finger at the other person, but for a moment, her throat felt blocked, and she couldn't speak.

She never expected that this "Orfino" would dare to talk back and humiliate her. This was something she had never encountered before, so much so that her mind went blank for a moment due to excessive anger.

"What do you mean, Agnes? I'm not going to put up with you."

Ye Xiao frowned and slapped away Agnes's finger pointing at him. "Your father and sister can tolerate your cesspool-like temper only because you had some connection with them when you were in the womb."

"But you weren't born of me. If you like to act crazy, get out of here right now."

"Orfindor!!!"

Agnes clenched her fists. "How dare you talk to me like that?!"

"What? Does your question mean I should say more?"

Ye Xiao picked up a piece of wood from the ground and waved it at Agnes as if shooing away a fly. "Get lost. I don't care if you like being scolded. If you're so capable, go back to the ship yourself. I don't care about you."

"Please calm down, both of you."

Beside him, Decarri chuckled and tried to smooth things over. He knew Ye Xiao wasn't really Orfino, nor did he rely on the Boromeo family for food, so he knew this guy wouldn't spoil Agnes too much. "It's so late, Lady Agnes certainly won't be safe going back on her own..."

"Decali, what nonsense are you spouting!"

Agnes then realized what was happening and yelled, "Why aren't you crippling this ingrate?!"

"'Hey, hey, hey, Dekari, Dekari,' what good are you except for calling for help?"

Ye Xiao mimicked Agnes's ghostly screams in a sarcastic tone, "Stop talking nonsense. If you want to stay, then keep quiet. Otherwise, get out of here. I'm not going to serve you."

"Decali!?? What are you still standing there for!??"

Agnes was increasingly enraged by the insults, but seeing that Decari was not making a move, she felt her blood pressure rise with anger but was helpless.

"Fine!!! Damn it, Decari, you're on this bastard's side too, huh? Fine, let's go!!!"

Agnes cursed, then suddenly turned around, slipped, and fell again.

Ye Xiao's unrestrained laughter came from behind her, which angered her so much that she no longer cared about her image. She used both hands and feet to open the door and rushed out.

But Agnes probably didn't expect that as soon as she stepped out, Ye Xiao stopped laughing, gave Decali a thumbs up, and said, "Not bad, this guy's temper is really awful, the plan is going more smoothly than expected."

"Wasn't this a bit too much...?"

Decali scratched his head.

"It's just a few words of scolding, nothing compared to all the awful things she's done. Don't be too soft-hearted, she won't appreciate it anyway."

Ye Xiao shrugged. "Alright, enough nonsense. You go out and find her first, and then I'll go find some people elsewhere."

"Understood. Next, you'll pretend to be a group of robbers and capture Lady Agnes, right?"

Dekari nodded.

"Just make up any excuse and pretend you're no match for them then,"

Ye Xiao smiled and said, "Watch me tie her up in the dungeon so that she'll learn to control her bad temper."

Decari didn't know what expression to make, so he just scratched his face, then opened the door and chased after Agnes in the direction she was going.

Chapter Nine: A Lucky Mistake

Ye Xiao didn't delay and immediately went out, finding a few orc lads who looked quite energetic on the street corner.

The orc youth initially didn't want to deal with the human who came to his door, but Ye Xiao pulled out a few gold coins from his pocket, which was quite attractive to these orcs whose wallets were much emptier than their faces.

After draping cloaks over several orcs, Ye Xiao canceled the illusion effect of the Ring of Myriad Manifestations and reverted to his own appearance, no longer resembling Orfindo.

Since the goal is to impersonate a robber to harass Agnes, it wouldn't be appropriate to continue using Orffindor's image.

After gathering his men, Ye Xiao put on a cloak that immediately made him look suspicious and followed the marks left by Decali.

He soon found Dekali lying on the ground in an alley.

...Decali lying on the ground?

"Ok?"

Upon hearing the noise, Dekari bent down slightly and stared at Ye Xiao.

"...Man? What are you doing lying here?"

Ye Xiao was a little confused.

"what?"

Dekari was also confused. "Didn't a group of robbers already come? How come there's another one?"

"……what?"

Ye Xiao's lips twitched. "I just arrived?"

"Wait a minute, judging from your tone, you're 'Orfino'?"

Decali scratched his head. "A group of people came and stopped us without saying a word. I pretended to be poisoned, and then they kidnapped Lady Agnes and put her on a cargo wagon... They weren't sent by you?"

"No."

Ye Xiao was speechless.

"That's strange..."

Dekari nodded, then a flash of inspiration struck him, and he belatedly realized the truth.

"Holy shit, those guys are real robbers!"

Ye Xiao looked at Dekali and finally understood, unsure of what expression to make.

Things suddenly became complicated. The orcs that Ye Xiao brought did nothing but happily take away Ye Xiao's gold coins.

"Don't be so ridiculous, Decarli!? How could you mistake someone for someone else like this!??"
