Mage Veigar

Chapter 200 Glory
An hour and a half ago.

Vega slowly opened his eyes in the lounge of the tool shop.

The moment he opened his eyes, the last rune on the rune page disappeared, which meant that he had practiced "Tricky Style: Shadow" to perfection.

Although it's not as exaggerated as the "up, down, left, right, left, BABA" of cheating, but it's at least 1/6 of other people's ability. This one-sixth alone is already very exaggerated. At least you don't have to worry about closing your eyes one day and never waking up again.

Magic training is complete.

At this time, Vega remembered Silis's invitation, so he took out his pocket watch and found that the time was already 20:30 in the evening. This time made his hair stand on end instantly.

It actually took him more than 8 hours to practice magic?

Vega didn't care about anything else and immediately rushed out of the room to try to find the butler Falk Rodney, but was told by the manager that Falk had left the prop store at 12:30 noon due to busy work.

"Things are in trouble."

After hiring a carriage, Vega rushed towards Rodney Manor. During this time, he kept taking out his pocket watch to check the time. Judging from the current speed, he could arrive at Rodney Manor at about 22:00.

"I hope it's not too late."

In Vega's impression, the dinner usually enters the second stage at around 20:22, and the social dance stage officially begins at 00:. If we move at the current speed, we can catch up with the last stage.

There were no accidents along the way.

After rushing for a long time, Vega finally arrived at the brightly lit Rodney family before the end of the banquet.

Standing at the door of the manor, looking inside.

The magic lights in the entire manor are dazzling, like a pearl in the night.

The magic lamp is one of the empire's newest inventions. Since it is still in its infancy, it is currently only popular in the imperial capital and has not yet spread to other cities. This also reflects the advancement of the imperial capital to a certain extent.

He did not enter the manor immediately.

Vega straightened his uniform a little, then put on the armbands of the Iron Cross, the Wings of the Empire, and the Central Military Academy's Elite Class. He came here today to be a golden signboard for Silis, so naturally he should make a high-profile appearance instead of playing the pig and eating the tiger here.

Fortunately, this is not an online novel.

If this happened in a novel, he would clearly be the villain being stepped on by the protagonist.

"who?"

Seeing a figure walking in, the guards immediately became alert: "This is private territory, no entry."

"Don't worry, I'm here to attend the party." Vega smiled at the guards.

The captain of the guard looked Vega up and down. He did not look down on him just because he was a child. “Sir, I’m very sorry. It’s my duty. Please show me the invitation.”

"I was invited by Miss Celis."

Vega explained: "You can go in and confirm with Miss Celis, and say that it is Vega Kalini who came as scheduled."

The captain of the guards did not go in to find Qi Lisi to confirm, but said in embarrassment: "Miss is about to invite Mr. Cologne to dance, we dare not disturb you, how about asking you to wait for a moment, I will go in and ask in about 20 minutes?"

"I finally caught up."

After hearing the captain's words, Vega let out a long breath and walked straight inside.

"Sir, I'm sorry!"

The guards collectively stood in front of Vega, their weapons aimed.

Vega narrowed his eyes, then said with a dangerous look in his eyes: "Civilians, who gave you the right to point your weapons at the officers of the Empire? Are you intending to rebel? Please answer me immediately!" Vega emphasized the word "civilians" and pointed to the medal on his chest.

Under the illumination of the magic lamp, the Iron Cross was dark and deep, and the Imperial Wings were dazzling and noble. Although the authority of the Imperial Wings had long been frozen, this honor could never be recovered.

The guards did not recognize the two medals.

But this did not prevent them from knowing what it meant to point their weapons at Imperial officers.

This meant that imperial officers had the power to kill them on the spot.

But as their duty required, they had to stop Vega from entering, so Vega rushed in without hesitation.

The guards were just ordinary people, no match for him.

So Vega kicked a guard and sent him flying backwards into the banquet hall. This scene happened to be seen by a female guest, so a scream broke the atmosphere and a commotion ensued at the door.

"Call out the owner of this place to me, I need an explanation!"

With a roar, Veigar pretended to be angry, but he was actually laughing inside.

He came here to support Qilisi. If he could show his power at this time, his image would undoubtedly be most popular. The more popular he is today, the better it would be if he could surpass the clan leader. Then, it would be easier for Qilisi to deal with the next things.

A person's name, the shadow of a tree.

If he hadn't made a name for himself today, it would not be easy to attract more middle and lower-level, or even senior management based on Silis's one-sided statement. Based on the partnership relationship, Vega had already seriously considered it along the way.

Vega's roar mixed with magic instantly drowned out the music.

Therefore, it was impossible for Qilis in the banquet hall not to hear it. In her ears, although the voice was immature, it was unexpectedly reliable, and even a thousand times more beautiful than the beautiful music at the banquet.

Veigar's voice gave her courage.

She pulled out the hand that Colon was holding without hesitation, and walked straight towards the door without paying any attention to Colon's doubts and confusion. In addition to a group of guests who came to watch the fun, she was accompanied by Colon Portland and patriarch Leighton Rodney.

"I'll ask again."

Vega's voice became a little dull: "Who is the owner of this place? I need an explanation."

When Layton came closer and saw a child shouting, he was furious at first, but when he saw Vega's military uniform, medals and armbands, the anger that had just begun to grow was instantly extinguished like a basin of cold water.

Wings of the Empire, elite department armband.

As the patriarch of one of the top ten business families in the imperial capital, it was impossible for him not to know those things.

The Elite Section armband meant that this child was already a high-ranking military officer in reserve, and with the Imperial Wings and the Elite Section armband, it was expected that the rank of brigadier general and the position of full brigade commander would be as secure as a rock.

This was not something a businessman like him could afford to deal with.

In the empire, the military system is the most powerful, followed by the judicial system, and then the government system.

As for the nobility and business families?
The nobles and business families are not as powerful as the army and the judicial system, and even their financial resources are not as good as the business groups under the government system.

Therefore, senior military officers at the top of the food chain generally will not bring them to play, nor will they lower themselves to cause trouble for them. The military is more keen to wrestle with the government system and the judicial system.

Although it seems that they do not interfere with each other.

But this definitely does not mean that businessmen can provoke a senior imperial officer at will. Although this senior officer is only in the reserve force, the Imperial Wings are real honor.

Pointing weapons at the holder of the Imperial Wings on the Empire's territory?
To put it mildly, this is an attempt at rebellion. To put it more broadly, it is that the old aristocracy is dissatisfied with the rule of the empire and attempts to challenge the authority of the army. If it continues to develop, it may even allow the military to find an excuse to completely destroy the last bit of glory left by the aristocracy.
