The Villain Saint is my secondary account

Raymond turned half his body back and glanced at the burly man.

"Um, okay, my name is Chu..."

"Code name".

Raymond interrupted the other party's attempt to reveal his real name.

The player immediately realized what was happening and corrected himself, saying, "Then just call me 'Big Mountain,' I'm an expert magic warrior who's good at using gravity magic."

"Row."

As soon as Da Shan finished speaking, the orange-haired girl eagerly raised her hand, "I...I'm called Mo Feng, I'm..."

"Alright, alright, everyone here knows you, so there's no need for introductions."

Raymond ruthlessly skipped over Miss Maple and looked at Ye Xiao, "And you?"

"Anshapkalong, no codename yet..."

Ye Xiao replied listlessly.

"No, no, that's too unprofessional. I've decided that from now on your code name will be 'Little Brother Demon Maple'."

Miss Mofeng offered her opinion from the side.

"Alright, from now on you can call me 'Little Brother Mo Feng'."

"Hey, isn't this way too casual?"

Raymond almost lost his composure. "What kind of code name is that? Don't you have a nickname?"

"He is an indigenous person from western Xinjiang."

Miss Mofeng replied on behalf of Ye Xiao.

"what?"

Raymond was taken aback. "Then how did you end up here? The company does have departments with native members, but our department should be made up entirely of players..."

"I do not know either."

Ye Xiao shrugged. "You'll have to ask Manager Zhou."

"Never mind... I'll just call you Kalon for now."

Raymond didn't bother to delve deeper. "What are your strengths? You seem to use a short sword. Were you perhaps an assassin before?"

"No, I just learned a little from a master before, and I've also studied some spells on my own."

Ye Xiao's answer was concise and to the point.

He wasn't afraid of being exposed if he ran into the ducal nobles he met that night. After all, Zhou Lixun knew that he wasn't the real Anshapkalon. So if he happened to run into someone who had seen him that night in Strømsgod, he could just say that "Baron" was the fake identity Zhou Lixun had forged for him.

As for adding the point about "having learned magic", it's because Deborah saw him cast an earth wall spell last night, and just in case, she had to include it as well.

As they spoke, the group moved forward slowly, and soon the airship's hatch appeared before them.

There were no friendly and pretty young female attendants to greet them at the edge of the warship; only two ducal soldiers with sour faces stood guard on either side, carrying muskets.

A sloping sampan descended from the boarding gate, connecting to the ground. Ye Xiao stepped onto the sloping sampan and discovered that there was another boarding gate not far away, with only a few people around, which was wide open.

That seemed to be a special passage set up for VIPs of higher status, because Ye Xiao saw several luxuriously decorated carriages escorted by a cavalry corps drive up to the entrance. The handsome young man leading the cavalry corps seemed to have a high rank based on the military insignia on his uniform.

The carriage door opened, and a slender leg wrapped in black velvet stepped onto the ground in black wedge heels, followed by a dark blue skirt. Then, a young girl with dark purple curly hair stepped out of the carriage.

Ye Xiao quickly recognized Windsor Tyron; she was the daughter of a councilor he had met when he infiltrated Strømsgodset, who was fawned over by a group of nobles.

Chapter 87 Part-time Tasks

Why is this guy going back to the duchy? Is the situation on the front lines too bad, and he doesn't want to stay any longer?

Ye Xiaoyuan chuckled inwardly when he saw the other person's not-so-pleasant expression.

He enjoys seeing his opponents looking gloomy and as if they've swallowed a fly.

After the senator's daughter disembarked, she did not go directly into the airship, but stood in front of the cabin door, letting several attendants hold up parasols to shield her from the sun.

She seemed to be waiting for someone.

Ye Xiao curiously followed the other person's gaze and then saw another group of knights riding white horses approaching.

They surrounded a blonde girl in a white dress and a flower wreath, who was riding a snow-white unicorn with an extraordinary aura, seemingly surrounded by holy light.

Oh no, it's Saint Tania from that duchy!

Ye Xiao's gaze froze, and the girl seemed to sense something as well, turning her head slightly to look in Ye Xiao's direction.

Ye Xiao quickly turned her face away, pulling down her hood to cover it. Luckily, she had specifically changed into a travel cloak while washing up earlier; otherwise, it would have been a huge problem if this guy had noticed her now.

Those who don't have a deep impression of Ye Xiao will find it difficult to see through his disguise. Without careful comparison, it's hard to connect the "Baron Kalon" he's currently impersonating with the appearance of "Ye Xiao".

But Tanya had been through thick and thin with him, and Ye Xiao didn't dare to gamble on her intuition.

Fortunately, Tanya glanced in their direction, raised an eyebrow slightly in confusion, and then turned her gaze away, dismounting from the unicorn and chatting with Miss Windsor.

Ye Xiao then secretly turned his gaze back to continue observing the two people's actions.

Miss Windsor's worried face finally broke into a smile when she saw Tanya. She took Tanya's hand and they walked into the cabin while chatting, while her attendant led the unicorn to the other side of the transport bay.

Is Tanya also going back to Tedeh?

Lionheart City is the capital of the Duchy of Tedeh. Tania is also on this airship. Is the Kingdom of Doum planning to abandon the main battlefield?

But Ye Xiao noticed that the group of knights who followed did not intend to board the airship, and then realized that it should only be Tanya who wanted to leave.

After the two girls entered the cabin, a large group of their guards and attendants followed them and boarded the airship one after another.

Ye Xiao kept a watchful eye on things. If it were just Miss Windsor leaving, it might not mean anything, but Saint Tanya's whereabouts were definitely closely related to the company's plans.

However, he also had to be careful not to go to the first-class cabin after boarding the airship. If he happened to bump into Tanya, something terrible might happen.

Fortunately, the supervisor was rather stingy that week and assigned them to regular cabins. As long as they didn't make any special trips, the chances of them meeting were actually not high.

During the time they had been observing, Ye Xiao and his group finally reached the front of the line.

Raymond handed the receipts from his pocket to the guard at the gate. After a quick glance, the guard suddenly looked up and scrutinized Raymond's face with some surprise.

"What, what's the problem?"

Raymond was by nature short-tempered, and seeing the soldier looking at him suspiciously, he became somewhat impatient.

"It's nothing, sir, but may I check your identification documents again?"

"what?"

Raymond's face darkened. He had already been questioned and checked all over while hiding in the western borderlands of Loren, so why was he being treated as a suspicious person even after returning to his own territory?

Does he really look that annoying?

"Oh dear, did Boss Zhou give us a fake ticket?"

Miss Mofeng, standing to the side, wore a bright smile, looking like she was eager to stir up trouble and was about to join in.

"Miss Mofeng, we can't leave if the ticket is fake."

Da Shan spoke in a simple and honest tone, unable to understand what Miss Mo Feng had to be happy about.

"Don't talk nonsense, how could it be a fake ticket!"

Raymond was so angry he almost twisted his mouth. They were here on a mission, and the company was just messing with them by sending fake tickets?

"No, it's not a fake ticket, it's just..."

The gatekeeper quickly explained, "According to the numbers on your tickets, you should board over there."

"what?"

Raymond looked in the direction the soldier was pointing, and there was the entrance to the upper deck of the airship where Miss Windsor and Tanya had just boarded.

"Wow, Mr. Zhou is rich! He's arranged such good treatment for us."

Miss Mofeng also looked pleasantly surprised.

"Then why don't you hurry up and take us there? Inspection? Inspection my foot!"

Raymond said irritably.

The soldier was somewhat innocent after being scolded, but since the red-haired mage had a rascal-like appearance and was someone who could go to the upper deck, he didn't dare to provoke him.

After all, the regulations only require ticket inspection and not identity verification. This is not Earth where tickets and identities can be linked online. Whether you check identity or ticket, all you can do is check for authenticity.

So the group of people, led by the soldiers, headed towards the boarding gate.

Miss Mo Feng was overjoyed, while Ye Xiao's face looked as if he had swallowed a fly.

Just what I feared most has come to pass. Does the company have so much money it doesn't know what to do with it? Do they have to put their field agents in first class for every mission?

This has dramatically increased the chances of encountering Tanya.

At the hatch in front, the Tyron family guards standing by the door saw the group approaching and immediately stepped forward to stop them.

"Where are you from? This place has been fully booked by the Tyron family."

"But these few..."

The soldier leading the way handed the receipt to the guard who stepped forward. The guard frowned in surprise and then reported to the captain beside him.

The order was relayed up the chain of command, and soon a handsome young man in a tailcoat stepped out from the crowd and ordered his guards to make way. "Let them come over. They are indeed our hired men."

After saying that, he stepped forward and extended his white-gloved hand to Raymond.

"Nice to meet you. I am Sebastian, Miss Windsor's butler. Thank you all for the bodyguard duties for the Tyron family."

"……bodyguard?"

Ye Xiaodun felt something was strange.

"Some missions require the use of other identities to maintain secrecy. Supervisor Zhou probably arranged this identity for us on purpose to avoid being noticed by our informants."

Miss Mofeng leaned close to Ye Xiao's ear and whispered, "But it's more likely that this way we can save on the cost of airships. After all, there are six of us, and airship tickets aren't cheap."

After hearing this, Ye Xiao's lips twitched; he didn't even know where to begin his吐槽 (tu cao, a Chinese internet slang term for sarcastic or critical comments).

"Relax, little brother. It's not like we're really going to be bodyguards. We're just using each other's identities to travel together. Besides, we don't have to do anything for these big families' bodyguard missions. Look at all those guards and servants, they don't need us to do any work."

Seeing Ye Xiao's expression, Miss Mofeng assumed he was finding it troublesome and immediately offered words of comfort.

"And it's first class! Although it's a modified warship, it probably won't be very comfortable."

Ye Xiao had no choice but to follow the young butler and board the airship with the others.

Chapter 88 Meeting an Acquaintance

High in the sky, the huge airship slowly pierced through the clouds.

Ye Xiao stood by the window, looking down at the vast desert of western Xinjiang and the city gradually shrinking until they disappeared under the clouds.

"Leaving your hometown must feel unpleasant."

Miss Mofeng's voice came from the side.

Ye Xiao turned around and saw that the orange-haired girl was holding the phantom of a small dog in one of her palms, while her other hand was sticking out fingers, as if she was teasing the dog.

"well enough."

Ye Xiao crossed his arms. After all, his true home was Blue Star. As for Loren, it would only take two or three seconds for Ella to open a portal for him to go back.

But every time he rides the airship and gazes at the distant land, he still feels a thrill as if he is embarking on a journey.

Looking back now, he realizes that he has set off many times in this life, visited many places, seen many different landscapes, and met all sorts of interesting companions.

Perhaps the world will return to a better state once the war ends.

However, Ye Xiao was not one to indulge in sentimentality. After a moment of reflection, he turned his attention to the phantom puppy that Miss Mo Feng was playing with.

"Your illusions can even imbue creations with sentience?"

Spell spirituality is a very special and profound area in magical research, and it is usually related to summoning spells.

When high-level elemental mages use summoning spells, in addition to summoning existing elemental creatures from the elemental plane through a contract, another approach is to construct the shell of an elemental creature themselves and then imbue it with magical sentience.

This can give the originally lifeless elemental body a simple intelligence, making it easier for the summoner to control it.

While there have been various experiences with the application of this spiritual endowment, such as elemental creatures and necromancers' skeleton soldiers, the fundamental principle and the origin of this spirituality remain unsolved problems for mages.
