Mage Veigar

Chapter 117 Cause and Effect
That night.

Vega stayed at Gunther's house.

After detailed consultations, Gunther Burton finally decided to meet with Commander-in-Chief Foster tomorrow morning.

However, during the negotiations, Vega did not tell Gunther Burton the truth.

Veigar didn't even explain where his confidence came from.

There are two reasons why I didn't let anything slip.

The first thing is to consider Gunther Burton's courage. If he doesn't even have this kind of decisiveness, then he is definitely not an ally that can be cooperated with. Even if they can reluctantly cooperate this time, Vega will stay away from him next time.

After all, sometimes a bad teammate is more terrifying than a good opponent.

As for the second reason, of course, we must always be on guard against others.

Once the key information concerning Kareni and even the entire northern front is exposed, Gunther Burton can completely leave him alone and eat the big cake. After all, everyone likes to eat meat, and no one likes to drink soup.

knock knock knock.

There was a knock on the door.

Vega opened the door and found that it was Dani who came to visit.

It was not until just now that Vega realized that this older sister who had been quite friendly to him was actually the daughter of Gunther Burton.

"Brother Vega, it's been a long time since we last met. You are still so cute."

She leaned over and pinched Vega's cheek, and then without getting Vega's permission, Dani forced her way into the room, gracefully fiddled with the hem of her skirt, and then sat on the edge of the bed.

Patted the seat next to him.

Dani said with a smile: "Brother Vega, come to me quickly so that I can take a good look at you. I haven't seen you for a while. You seem to be much thinner than before, but your skin is still as delicate as before. I am really envious and jealous of you."

Vega sighed.

He did not follow Dani's instructions, but sat on the reception chair: "Well, Miss Dani Burton, the game of house is over. You don't need to waste your energy on making friends with a worthless wanted criminal like me, right?"

There is no good thing in this world without reason.

It was only after confirming Dani's identity that Vega truly understood that Dani had previously given him weapons and recognized him as her brother, probably only because he was of some use to Gunther Burton.

If he behaved completely uselessly at the beginning.

I'm afraid the other party doesn't even want to look at him.

Dani was not offended by Vega's words. She smiled slightly and said, "Brother Vega is really ruthless. How do you know that I don't really want you to be my brother?"

"Tell me why you're here."

Vega's tone was neither cold nor hot. Under normal circumstances, he wouldn't mind playing a childish game of house with Dani, but now that everyone had torn off their disguises, there was no need to disgust each other anymore.

“Really? Vega-brother is becoming less and less lovable.”

Dani kept an eye on Vega's expression. Seeing that Vega was getting a little impatient, she knew she should stop. "My purpose for coming here this time is very simple. I hope you can clearly state your confidence."

She stood up and walked towards Vega with graceful steps.

When he walked in front of Vega, he said in a gentle voice: "Father may believe your childish words because of the momentary impulse, but I don't have much confidence in your words."

Vega shook his head firmly.

He looked at Dani and said, "Perhaps this is why your father was able to climb to this position today, but Miss Dani, you can only stay in the logistics department and have not been promoted yet. You really should learn more from Brigadier General Ganser."

Being taught a lesson by a child?
Dani laughed in anger and was about to retort when Vega's annoying voice came again: "And it's no use even if you don't believe it, Miss Dani. It's enough as long as Brigadier General Ganther is willing to believe me, because the initiative is not in your hands, right?" Dani was speechless.

Vega was not relenting: "So even though you knew I couldn't speak, you treated me like a child and came to my room in the middle of the night to try to trick me into speaking by pretending to be friends. Miss Dani, do you really treat me like a child?"

"Are you finished?"

Vega didn't notice Dani's cold eyes. He continued, "Of course I haven't finished. Only children care about friendship. Adults only care about benefits. You want to use this insignificant friendship to trick me. I'm not the kind of child who will be at a loss if given a lollipop. You don't even use the honey trap on me. This is simply disrespectful to me..."

Wow.

Before Vega could finish his words, Dani picked up the cup full of water on the table and splashed it on his face.

Without waiting for Vega to protest.

Dani left the room with sharp footsteps, leaving Vega confused.

"Hahaha--"

There was laughter coming from outside the door.

Magician Rayleigh said with relief: "The lady came here to understand the situation out of concern for you and Lord Gunther. Regardless of whether the plan is feasible or not, she has prepared a large amount of gold coins for you for emergency and escape. I didn't expect that you didn't earn any gold coins, but only a glass of water...hahahaha."

After Rayleigh finished speaking, he glanced at Vega with a gloating look.

Then, without waiting for Vega to reply, he immediately followed Dani's footsteps.

He came to Dani's side, changed his rebellious attitude, and said like a lackey, "Miss, that little brat doesn't know how to appreciate kindness. Do you want me to teach him a lesson?"

"Pfft."

Dani was amused by Rayleigh, as if she remembered Rayleigh's confession: "If you can beat him, then go ahead."

Rayleigh suddenly didn't dare to speak, and his expression was as disgusted as if he had eaten a fly.

An elemental mage challenges a shadow mage in a one-on-one fight?

He hasn't lived enough yet.

Dani didn't pay attention to Rayleigh's expression. She said to herself, "Although I was indeed mad at that brat, this made me feel relieved. Because from this test, I can see that he is not the kind of person who shoots without a purpose. At least, he is not the kind of childish child who loses his mind after being given a lollipop."

"Miss, are you praising him too much?"

"At least he can make me feel relieved now."

Dani said as she disappeared at the end of the corridor: "This alone is enough. All I want is my father and his safe return."

Time flies.

It was already the next morning.

After his life was no longer in danger, Vega finally relaxed and had a good sleep.

After breakfast.

Veigar followed Gunther Burton and headed in the direction of the army.

This time he did not go out of his way to hide his identity, because this kind of self-deception could only bring him a little psychological comfort, and it could not hide it from the eyes of the trial system at all.

Instead of hiding, it’s better to be open about it.

Gunther Burton and Vega moved quickly and arrived at the Third Army Headquarters in less than half an hour.
