Mage Veigar

Chapter 16 Reasons to Live
"hateful."

Ivan Steve chased all the way, but eventually lost Vega's trace.

He had already made the worst plan and fled abroad, but after hearing the voice, he saw a glimmer of hope. Unexpectedly, after the hope, he was swallowed up by despair again. The ups and downs in his life stimulated him so much that he almost vomited blood.

But it's not without gain.

At least he saw Vega's appearance clearly, and he found that Vega was seriously injured. In this case, he would definitely not be able to run far.

There was nothing in the city of Kaleni that the intelligence chief didn't know, and it was easy to intercept that little soldier before he delivered the map to the army.

However, the strength of the Veigar professional still made him a little wary.

The top priority now is to find the little ghost.

Ivan leaped up, landed on the ground and whistled.

As soon as the whistle sounded, in less than three minutes scattered people gathered from all directions. Some were vendors selling midnight snacks, some were drinkers, some were housewives, and even some were children around 10 years old.

"Find me a kid in a military uniform."

Ivan looked at one of the old men who was drawing portraits and said, "Draw a portrait according to my requirements and send a copy to each member of the organization tomorrow. I want to get news about this child within one day. Now we should split up and act separately."

No one answered, no one made a sound, and everyone scattered like birds and beasts.

A smile appeared on Ivan's lips. In the territory he had run for many years, let alone a living person, even if he wanted to find a rat, he could dig it out for you within a day. The powerful intelligence network of the United Kingdom spread across all levels of society.

When the moon climbed out from the clouds again.

After a few hours of peaceful sleep, Vega also woke up from his coma.

"Where is this?"

Vega felt that the arrow in his body had been removed, the wound had been bandaged, and he was lying on a comfortable wooden bed in a room of about 15 square meters.

“That’s totally wrong.”

Vega remembered that before he fell into a coma, he subconsciously chose a way to escape and finally entered a dilapidated church. That church was where he lived for a period of time last year, so his memory was quite clear, but now he appeared here.

"map!"

Vega lifted the quilt and touched his chest, only to find that the map was gone. He was no longer wearing the bloodstained military uniform, but a large civilian linen shirt. If it wasn't the familiar face that appeared in the mirror, he would have thought he had traveled through time again.

"Was he rescued or captured?"

Vega quickly looked around and found that although the cross sword and military uniform had disappeared, the dagger that Dani gave him was still on the bedside table. He rolled up his hand, hid the dagger in his sleeve, and slowly moved towards the door, enduring the pain in his body.

creak.

The door was opened, but it wasn't Vega who opened it.

"Put your hands up."

The sharp dagger was already against the intruder's neck, and just a slight cut would be enough to kill him.

"Don't get excited, don't get excited."

The older boy who came in quickly raised his hands and said, "Brother Vega, I'm Leah's friend. She found you in the church and asked me to rescue you. We won't hurt you. Put down the dagger first and we can talk."

“How do you know my name is Vega? Where is my map?” Even though this 17-year-old boy looked like a commoner and didn’t have any magic power on him, Vega didn’t dare to be careless.

learn from mistakes.

A few hours ago, he suffered a loss at the hands of an ordinary person and nearly lost his life. He is no longer conceited.

"Liya told me. I don't know anything else." The older boy became more and more nervous, and at the same time felt aggrieved. He was actually scared by an eleven-year-old child who was six years younger than him.

"Who is Leah?" Vega continued to ask with a cold face.

The older boy said nervously, "Liya is an employee at my bakery, a sixteen-year-old girl."

Vega frowned and thought for a while, not completely believing his words: "Take me to see the Leah you mentioned, don't play any tricks."

Vega put down the dagger on the opponent's neck and became extremely alert. Although he might be too cautious when facing an ordinary civilian, he didn't want to suffer a second loss.

The older boy led the way, with Vega following behind.

"Go slower."

After walking less than 20 meters, Vega's forehead was covered with cold sweat and blood began to seep out of his wound again.

The older boy curled his lips, obviously noticing that Vega's wound had reopened. However, out of revenge, he did not slow down, but walked forward faster: "It's right in front, let's hurry up."

This is a courtyard.

The moonlight illuminated the entire yard. A girl in plain clothes was standing under the stars, gazing up at the sky after hanging up her freshly washed military uniform. Her slightly sad expression made her look like an angel descending to earth, sacred and inviolable.

Is this Leah?
When the girl noticed the movement and turned around, Vega recognized who she was.

Last winter, the girl who depended on him for everything.

It was also the kind girl who gave him the only half piece of black bread and saved his life.

Even though her name, appearance and memory have been blurred by time, he will still be able to recognize her the moment they meet again.

"Now I remember, her name is indeed Leah."

Vega whispered to himself, looking at the girl who was slowly walking towards him, and he was actually a little at a loss.

Eyes facing each other.

Vega looked a little embarrassed. After all, he was the one who left without saying goodbye. “Liya, that…”

"Um-"

Before he could finish his words, Vega was hugged by Leah. Due to the difference in height and age, Vega's whole face was buried in Leah's plump chest and he couldn't speak. He could only make grunting sounds and struggle constantly.

"It's been 10 months. Where have you been?"

Leah said with tears in her eyes: "Do you know how worried I was about you? I thought, I thought you had already... wuwuwu..."

Vega stopped struggling.

He thought back to last winter. Although they had only been together for more than two months, the two helpless people had established a close sister-brother relationship. Relying on this warm bond, Vega could feel a little warmth even in the cold winter.

It is no exaggeration to say that Vega, who traveled through time, was redeemed spiritually by Leah.

Vega regards Leah as his sister.

Likewise, Vega also vaguely felt that Leah regarded him as a spiritual support like a family member.

It was precisely because of this spiritual sustenance that the two of them were able to rely on this spiritual sustenance to survive that cold winter even though Vega left without saying goodbye in the end.

The reason to live.

Just for a better meeting next time.
