Mage Veigar

Chapter 217: Pharmacy Information
Go or stay?

Vega was in a state of hesitation.

Now that he showed up, he could easily interrogate the two of them, because neither Moore nor Charles could be a match for a magician like him, but how would he leave after getting the information about the awakening potion?

Vega couldn't guarantee whether there were other Word Wizards here.

If there are other Word Wizards, he will definitely not be able to escape the encirclement of the Elemental Mages.

Always stay with me.

The temptation of promotion made Vega finally decide to give it a try. He wanted to torture the corpse for information about the awakening potion as soon as possible before anyone found it, and then leave Mole Manor before the enemy reinforcements appeared.

Draw out the short knife.

Veigar, who activated his trickery, sneaked into the study like an invisible ghost. Fortunately, the other party did not close the door of the study, which made it easier to kill one of them first.

As for who to kill first?
There was no need to consider this question at all. First of all, Charles Albarn was now a lower-level professional, and the threat level he posed was certainly not comparable to that of an ordinary old man like Moore. Moreover, from the conversation, Vega had heard that the awakening potion was found by Moore, so if he was going to torture someone, he would torture someone who knew the situation.

A breeze blew.

Veigar had already driven the dagger into Charles Alban's heart.

Even though Char was a lower-level professional, the Shadow Mage could kill even an Elemental Mage, let alone a mere lower-level professional. It would be as easy for Veigar to kill him as to crush an ant.

"Char? Char!"

When he saw his son, who was alive and kicking one second ago, fall to the ground and die the next second, the sudden blow made Moore stand there in a daze.

Since the Trickery had to reveal its true form when launching an attack, Vega's figure was also exposed to Moore's sight. His eyes were full of anger and bloodthirstiness. Even though he knew that his own ability was insufficient, Moore still picked up the decorative cross sword on the shelf and attacked Vega.

"A useless struggle."

Moore was not a professional, so Vega didn't even use his short knife. He broke Moore's cross sword with his bare hands: "I advise you to stop attacking. If you insist on suffering before you are willing to be honest, I don't mind."

As he spoke, Vega picked up the expensive handkerchief on the table and wiped the bloody dagger.

It was this action that made Moore completely obedient. Although he was old, some people became more afraid of death as they got older. Moore was obviously one of them. He didn't want to suffer torture in his twilight years.

"Why did you betray us?"

Moore suppressed the pain of losing his son and said, "Since you are willing to let General Ingril go, you must have surrendered to the kingdom with sincerity. Our kingdom treats you well. The title of Marquis can be regarded as the highest title among non-royal bloodlines."

"Don't go on and on about lying to a three-year-old."

Vega smiled coldly and said, “Speaking of betrayal, it was the Kingdom that betrayed me first. Before you give me a perfunctory answer, can you find an excuse that I can barely believe? You are too lazy to even find an excuse. Is this the sincerity of your United Kingdom?”

Without waiting for Moore to speak.

Vega put the dagger on his neck and said, "Let's stop wasting time. If you say another word of nonsense from now on, I will kill you. Please don't challenge my patience."

"If you have any questions, just ask."

Seeing that his idea of ​​stalling for time was exposed, Moore could only take one step at a time: "But please let me go after I finish answering. Although I am old, I have no interest in death."

"Do you have any other options?"

Vega laughed and said, "The first question is, when do you plan to attack Kareni City?" "Sorry, I don't know about this."

Moore shook his head calmly and said, "The kingdom only asked me to send you to the north of the empire within 10 days, and did not tell me the specific date to attack Kareni City. Such secrets would not be told to me, an irrelevant person."

From the look in Moore's eyes, it can be seen that he probably wasn't lying.

But Vega did something that Moore didn't expect. He swung his dagger, and Moore's right little finger fell off, and blood instantly dyed his robe red.

There was no exclamation, only beads of cold sweat dripping down Moore's wrinkled forehead.

He relied on his strong willpower to endure the great pain, but his voice was trembling and aggrieved: "Why, I'm obviously telling the truth, can't you see it with your eyesight?"

"Of course I know you are telling the truth."

"Then why..."

Vega said as if it was a matter of course: "I just can't stand the fact that you are a prisoner but you are so calm. Please have some self-awareness. Your life and death are in my hands. Can you cooperate with me and show some nervousness and fear?"

"Devil, devil!"

Seeing Vega's brilliant smile, Moore was really a little scared at this moment.

He didn't expect that the kid in front of him would be so unreasonable. He cut off his fingers just because he didn't like his attitude. Would he chop off his head for some random reason next time?
Moore didn't dare to gamble, so he kept quiet.

"Yes, that's the expression. I like this expression."

Vega laughed loudly, acting even more villainous than a villain: "Second question, I need information about the awakening potion."

"How, how did you know that?" Moore looked surprised.

Vega snorted and said, "I am the one asking you the question now, not you. You just need to answer my question. I won't give you a second chance. You can do whatever you want."

Moore answered honestly, "The awakening potion has the effect of breaking the bottleneck of a professional. I spent a lot of money to trade it from the royal family of the Holy Dynasty. I let Charles take it yesterday."

"Oh?"

"What I said is absolutely true!"

Moore was afraid that Veigar would not believe him, so he quickly explained: "Awakening potion is a product of ancient magic civilization. Even in the Holy Dynasty, which has the most ancient magic relics, there are not many of these potions in stock. They are usually only in the hands of the royal family. It is a great luck to be able to trade for this one."

"Holy Dynasty, ancient magical relics..."

Vega's eyes flickered. It seemed that it would be impossible to get the awakening potion in a short period of time, but fortunately, he at least found hope of being promoted to a lower-level professional.

But before Vega could be happy, the sound of footsteps echoed in the corridor.

"Hurry, that brat has betrayed us, protect the commander-in-chief."

"Everyone, be careful and ensure the safety of the Word Spirit Mage first."

"..."

Amid the noise, Vega found that he was blocked at the door.
