Villain Is on Vacation

Chapter 145 Dealing With Veronica





Veronica stepped out of the headquarters, her feet touching the cold metal flooring of the landing bay.

The space station, located on the planet of Andromeda IV, was a sprawling complex that was home to thousands of beings from various galaxies.

The sky was filled with stars, and the different hues of purple and blue seemed to blend together, forming a beautiful backdrop against the backdrop of space.

As she gazed out, Veronica noticed the hustle and bustle of the landing bay.

She could see different species of creatures, some humanoid, and some not, coming and going, each one with its own unique features and characteristics.

The air was filled with the sound of chatter, and the smell of different kinds of fuel.

The headquarters itself was an impressive structure, rising high into the sky, a testament to the advanced technology of the beings who had built it.

Its sleek, metallic exterior seemed to gleam in the light of the nearby stars.

'Whenever I come here, I only wonder how these humans could develop to this point." Veronica thought. 

Andromeda IV, the planet where the space station headquarters is located, is a relatively young planet in the grand scheme of the universe.

It was formed around 4 billion years ago, and it took another billion years for life to develop on its surface.

The planet is located in the Andromeda Galaxy, one of the closest galaxies to the Milky Way, and it has a similar composition to Earth.

However, unlike Earth, Andromeda IV has a much more stable climate, thanks to its position in the galaxy, which has allowed for the development of complex life forms.

Human civilization on Andromeda IV began around 100 years ago when the first humans arrived on the planet.

They were a group of explorers who had left Earth in search of new worlds to colonize.

Apparently, after giving lands of the earth to other civilizations mankind barely had anything left. 

The resources and the land they had weren't enough. That's why they started finding other planets. 

With new technology and good materials, they were able to make good spaceships. 

In their exploration, they found many planets and civilizations. Some hostile and some neutral. No one was friendly at the start. 

But with time, they were able to gain some experience here. 

As they landed on Andromeda IV and found that the planet was rich in resources, including precious metals and minerals.

"I don't believe they called me here to expand their territory and resolve conflicts." Veronica mused. 

The meeting wasn't about education purposes solely. It was just an excuse to call her. 

Over time, humans began to develop advanced technologies, such as faster-than-light travel and advanced robotics, that allowed them to explore the galaxy and interact with other alien species.

They formed alliances with some species while engaging in conflicts with others, but always to expand their influence and resources.

And other fantasy races also formed alliances with other races. So it was tough competition. 

Taking a deep breath, she started walking towards her ship, ready to depart from the space station and head towards the Earth. 

As she was heading towards the Earth in her private spaceship, she couldn't help but think about the meeting. 

In these few days, she participated in the meeting, but most of her time was wasted. 

"If only it wasn't that contract I would never interact with these greedy people." She felt anger rising. She put the spaceship on autopilot mode. 

After crossing the portal few thousand light years away from the planet, her spaceship appeared a few hundred light years away from the solar system. 

As Andromeda IV was located in the Andromeda Galaxy, which was approximately 2.5 million light-years away from Earth. 

It would take too much time and resources to just to travel.

But with help of space magicians and genomes, they were able to create the portal. It was like an artificial wormhole.

After a few days, Veronica's spaceship "Aurora" landed in Dawn City. As she had a permit for landing, she wasn't stopped on her way.

The place she landed was in the backyard of her mansion. After all, she didn't want to cause a disturbance by going to the academy with her spaceship, and she was also tired.

After landing, she used her space magic to store her spaceship in the void vault. "Finally, I am back home," Veronica cheered as she entered the mansion.

However, in her hand was a box. When she entered the mansion, she received it from her housekeeping AI. When she was away from home, someone sent it.

"Who could that be?" Veronica wondered. There weren't any people who dared to send her proposals, and her address wasn't public either.

After inspecting the packaging, she noticed a logo of a man with a big belly. "Ricky Rich?" she mumbled. Ricky Rich was a famous businessman in the circle.

She didn't bother to think more as there weren't any other details written on the package. She pressed the button on the package, and soon it opened mysteriously. There were some scrolls with ancient texts and a letter.

She unfolded the letter and started reading. 

[Hello, Miss Veronica Blaze,

I am fine and healthy, hope you are fine and healthy too.

Okay, let's cut to the chase. You don't have much time. You might have recognized those scrolls, so I won't bother telling you information about them.] 

"What a rude opening," Veronica mumbled. Still, she kept reading the letter. 

[Keep these scrolls safe till I collect them from you. I also have a little errand for you. So do it, okay?] 

"Hehe. What a weirdo. Does that person think I will run errands for him?" Veronica giggled. 

[Don't even bother about denying, Dragon Princess Veronica, the sole daughter of Dragon Emperor Ash.] 

"Ara~ someone wants to blackmail me? It won't work, though." Veronica thought. 

[Do you think I will blackmail you with these details? Nah. I know you don't care about them. But I have more details. I know about the little Dragon you are finding.] 

"Is he talking about Casper?" Veronica was stunned for a moment. 

[And you know where he is?

Roaring Cave.] 

"Isn't this location for the practical exam?" Veronica was puzzled. 

[Ara, isn't that the same location as where the practical exam for the top 100 students in the first year is going to be held?

Oh, you sure are on a tight time right? But I suggest hurrying, otherwise, many students will die because 'that' evil organization is going to attack.] 

"What a lie~" Veronica was still in doubt. She felt someone was playing a prank on her or toying with her. 

[Eh, you are still not believing in this? But isn't this good timing to see Ken's true strength? Hmm.

You should make haste or you will miss the show.

Bye-bye.]

After reading the letter, Veronica burned it to ashes. "Oh my, what arrogance," she couldn't help but smirk. After leaving her world, she hadn't met anyone with this much arrogance.

"Looks like I have to go to the Roaring Cave," Veronica mumbled.

She left her house as it was the day when practical exams were going to be held in the Roaring Cave.

*SNAP* 

Rain's fingers snapped sharply in front of Veronica's face, pulling her out of her trance-like state.

"Why do you keep staring at me? Am I really that attractive?" Rain asked, with a playful glint in his eyes.

Veronica couldn't help but let out a soft chuckle. "Yeah, you're too attractive, boy. So much that I want to burn you alive." Her voice was laced with a melodious tone, but her words had a sharp edge to them.

Rain didn't seem fazed by her threat. "Oh, I like playing with fire, especially if it's fire from the renowned Blaze family," he said with a smirk.

Casper, who had been munching on popcorn, decided to chime in. "Young man, you really have the guts to flirt with my old sister," he said, trying to sound teasing.

However, he quickly shut his mouth as soon as he saw the look on Veronica's face.

Veronica turned her attention back to Rain. "You know, I'm very curious about you," she said, her eyes narrowing slightly. 

 "The knowledge I possess isn't something any human should have. Are you even human?" She asked, her voice dripping with amusement.

Rain raised his eyebrows. 

Veronica's curiosity seemed to only grow. "Are you from another dimension?" she asked, her tone now one of genuine intrigue.

"Yeah." Rain nodded in response.

"It won't hurt to lie. Although I might be burned alive if she knows I'm lying," he thought inwardly.

Veronica seemed to catch on to his hesitance, but she decided not to push the issue. "I won't pry about that. I have some manners, unlike someone else who doesn't know privacy," she said, her words pointed at Rain. 

However, she didn't know that Rain had lost his shame ages ago while dealing with some troublesome people in this life.

He let out a small chuckle, his bravado now in full swing.

"I just have some questions, and I hope you answer them," Veronica spoke, her tone now more serious.

"What if I don't? What's in it for me?" Rain asked back, his confidence now taking a sharp turn.

"Hmm...," Veronica trailed off, considering her options.

If she was able to use her full strength in the virtual world, she might have buried Rain alive. However, she was too strong. She couldn't use her full strength in the virtual world. 

"Okay, what do you want?" she finally asked, her voice now resigned.

"Keep those scrolls with you for the time being, I'll collect them someday," Rain said, his voice smooth and assured. Veronica was relieved to hear this easy request.

However, Rain wasn't done yet. He raised his index finger, a mischievous glint in his eye.

"Also, fulfill my one wish," he said, his tone now daring and challenging.
