Team villains except me

"So you're going to take another week off?"

Valerio looked at the half-mermaid across from him in his office, slightly surprised.

Norvia nodded.

Valerio didn't think it was surprising that he didn't have classes, but it was unusual for Norvia to take so many days off.

"I took leave for Fiana before, but why now?"

"Go to the Enlightenment Festival of Titaige Country."

Norvia said softly.

She sensed something was wrong as soon as she walked into Valerio's office.

Various trinkets of different styles fill Valerio’s noble and luxurious office. Next to the crystal ball on his desk are knitted gloves and a small red scepter.

Valerio rarely ate in his office, but Norvia saw the aroma of food coming from the rosewood cabinet—presumably some kind of bacon.

Valerio, the aristocratic chairman, is currently wearing a blanket with complicated and strange patterns. His silver eyes are cold and his posture is still elegant.

But he was dressed quite warmly.

Valerio understood the half-mermaid's thoughts, and he coughed to hide it.

"Recently...my teammates have arrived."

Norvia: Oh——

No wonder Mr. Valerio looks so healthy now.

Valerio granted Norvia a holiday. He probably knew what Norvia was going to do.

A week's holiday is long, but Enlightenment is not that long.

"What are you going to do in Titeg?"

Valerio asked directly, and Norvia had nothing to hide.

"Yesterday, Teacher Matia had a conflict with her sister. I thought, maybe we can solve this problem. Teacher Matia is very good to us, and we want to give Teacher Matia a useful gift."

"……Ah."

Valerio raised his eyebrows, his expression a little casual.

He took a sip of hot tea with no meaning, then choked and coughed.

"What kind of tea is this...cough cough cough cough..."

This was Valerio's second cough. The knick-knacks on his desk set off an alarm.

After the alarm sounded, Valerio's communicator rang.

Valerio knocked the little ornament on the head in annoyance, then frowned slightly and picked up the contact device helplessly.

His cold silver eyes softened.

"...Alita, I'm really not sick."

"I cough because this tea is too bitter. It's all Suha's fault."

"I'm wearing a blanket. Yes, the one you brought back. I'm really not sick."

Valerio promised softly, then hung up the communication.

After he hung up the phone, he saw the smiling expression of the half-mermaid on the other side. He put down the communicator as if nothing had happened, pretending that what just happened had never happened.

Norvia took the note and was about to leave, but Valerio stopped her.

The chairman's face was no longer as soft as before, and he looked at Norvia seriously.

"I don't recommend you to interfere in Mattia's affairs."

Norvia stopped.

"why?"

"Because the composition of Titag is complicated. As a beast warrior, Mattea's family affairs are Titag's political affairs.

I don't deny your ability. You can find Professor Ob's family, you can defeat King Philippi - but there's not much you can do about Mattia. "

Valerio nodded the bauble's head with his fingertips. His brown hair was loose, and the light shone in from behind him, making his outline hazy.

"Norvia, Mattia and Orb are different. Mattia is a very mature beast warrior, she can deal with her own problems.

If the problem still exists, it means that Mattia does not want to solve it. "

Valerio looked at the half-mermaid opposite him and emphasized his tone.

"Not all problems can be solved."

Norvia nodded, she accepted Valerio's suggestion well.

"The main thing is to let Fiana go and relax. If the problem cannot be solved, then you can give Teacher Matia other gifts."

"Don't worry about Titig's internal affairs. Norvia, only the divine war can unite the discordant tiger clan."

"That's really... sad."

Norvia lowered her eyes and said, but she didn't think it was important. She is ready to go to class.

"Norvia, I have divined. The outcome for Mattia and her sister is not good."

Valerio's voice was calm, as if he was talking about a fait accompli.

Norvia did not look back.

"Teacher Valerio, we are just going to visit the Enlightenment Festival."

Norvia opened the door and left.

Valerio snorted.

"Going to cause trouble again...what a bunch of careless little devils."

He looked at their photo in the gemstone frame and thought about his teammates' reactions when they discovered it.

They noisily asked him how his group of students was doing, and said that he looked like a child pretending to be an adult. Finally, they lamented that they didn't even have a photo together in the "New World" back then.

Because of Raphael.

No photo of the New World team would be a photo without Raphael.

Valerio and his teammates told how Rafael was a jerk, and his teammates joined him in accusing Rafael of being hateful, and then they pulled him for a photo without Rafael.

"That way when Raphael sees it, he will internally blame himself for not showing up!"

Suha said this and placed their photos next to the photos of Raphael and his students.

Valerio allowed them to fool around without revealing Suha's true thoughts. He sometimes doubted his divination abilities, but he was an excellent astrologer.

Except for Raphael, he hasn't missed anything yet.

He sometimes wished he was wrong, but unfortunately, he was more right than the gods.

He hoped that after this week, things would still be calm in Titeg Country. Although the situation in Titeg is already very tense.

The Enlightenment Festival allows these aggressive tiger tribes to suppress their inner restlessness and maintain superficial peace, but once the Enlightenment Festival is over, Titige will become riotous.

As a beast warrior, Matia can stop wrongful wars, but just as she cannot participate in the civil wars of other countries, she is also passive towards the political struggles of her mother country.

She is a beast warrior, not a politician.

The problem between Mattea and her sister is more like the historical legacy of Titage. In the gathering area of ​​the tiger clan, there must be a tiger clan of a certain color who is in power.

That's how fights happen.

Valerio doesn't think Norvia and the others can change anything. But if you just want to relax, Titige would be a good choice.

Valerio thought that if his affairs were over and there was no major crisis in the world, then he would let the person he trusted the most be the chairman, and then go find Rafael with his teammates.

Damn Raphael, if he were here, they would have a photo together in the "new world".

Valerio thought indifferently and knocked the bauble on the head again.
