Mage Veigar

Chapter 575 Things are unpredictable
Holy Dynasty, Saint Laurent City.

In the palace, Qi Lisi sat in front of the mirror, and the maid helped her put on exquisite makeup.

"Miss, the time agreed with the Queen is almost up."

After helping Celis put on her makeup, the maid stepped aside, lowered her head, and reminded her softly.

Although the maid's face had no expression and she behaved neither humbly nor arrogantly, the slight tremor in her voice and her eyes that did not dare to look directly at Celis's face betrayed her nervousness and anxiety.

It’s not that the maid had any guilty conscience about wanting to harm Silis.

This was simply because of the temperament that Qilisi radiated from the inside out, which made this maid who had lived in the deep palace for a long time feel unprecedented pressure, and she was afraid of making even the slightest mistake in front of Qilisi.

What kind of temperament is this?
The maid didn't know what words to use to express it.

This is also not to say that maids are of low status and therefore have no knowledge.

In fact, as a royal maid, she had served Saint Laurent XVIII and Shia Saint Laurent. She had met numerous dignitaries at banquets, but so far only one person had the same temperament as Celise, which he could not describe in words.

it goes without saying.

That person was the late Saint Laurent XVIII.

Even the Star Mage and the current Queen, Sia Saint Laurent, had never given her this feeling.

If she had to describe it in words, it could probably be expressed in one word -

king.

Only the supreme king can be awe-inspiring without being angry.

Only a true king can inspire deep respect in people without saying a word.

Respect and fear are called awe.

Qi Lisi could clearly feel the maid's inner feelings. She looked at herself in the mirror and didn't know when her makeup changed from immature to the exquisite and gorgeous one it is now.

She also didn't know when it started, but everyone she met was in awe of her.

Queen of the Underground.

This was the nickname given to her behind her back by the high-ranking officials in the empire.

It should be noted that this is not an extraordinary praise, but a sharp weapon used by conspirators to kill people.

Because of this nickname, the controllers of the three powers repeatedly tried to destroy her organization and take her life. Fortunately, she later withstood the attacks and became the well-deserved "underground queen".

Although it was well-deserved, Silis still disliked the nickname and even deeply hated it.

She didn't want to be a queen, nor did she want to stand at the top of the pyramid and play games with the three powers. Her dream was just to stay by Vega's side, take off the mask of "king", and then be needed by Vega for the rest of her life.

She originally thought this dream was out of reach.

But a sudden change made her dream come true. She was summoned by Vega to the Holy Dynasty to serve as the head of the Dynasty's intelligence organization.

"I can finally get rid of that title."

Qi Lisi still remembers the moment she set foot on the dynasty's territory, and she sighed from the bottom of her heart.

She had always dreamed of taking off the disgusting mask of "Underground Queen" and taking on a job that couldn't be simpler so that she could be needed by Vega and be able to accompany him.

Although Vega has a wife, she can never be needed by Vega for her whole life just because of her status. But she is different. She can stay by Vega's side forever with her own ability.

But this beautiful dream was shattered yesterday.

On the table was the letter that Vega had sent from the Empire.

The letter clearly stated what she needed to do next -

He left the Dynasty and went to the Empire to serve as the Uncrowned King of the North.

A high position of power, a position that many people dream of, but Silis secretly cried all night because of this. She hated the title of "Queen".

She hated every corner of the empire.

That title and that piece of land brought her nothing but deep painful memories.

If she went to the north to be the uncrowned emperor, it would mean that the distance between her and Veigar would widen again. By then, one would be in the empire and the other in the dynasty. Unless it was a matter of life and death, they would probably not see each other for a whole year. However, she could not refuse Veigar's orders, because refusing would mean that she would become useless.

Stand up slowly.

Qi Lisi clenched the letter tightly, then suppressed any expression and said, "Let's go and say our final goodbyes to Her Majesty the Queen. We have to leave Saint Laurent today and head to the Empire."

"Yes, ma'am, I'll arrange it for you right away."

Led by the maid, Silis walked towards Xia's room.

When she stepped out of the room, Qilisi paused. She looked back at the room where she had lived for a long time with nostalgia, then turned around and left, with only determination left in her eyes.

The decision has been made.

If all this was Veigar's order.

If this is what Veigar needs.

Then, she, Celis Rodney, could put on the disgusting mask of the 'queen' again for Vega, set foot on the land that brought her only painful memories, and then... become the uncrowned... 'king'.

knock knock --

Qi Lisi knocked on the door that had been sealed for four months. This was Xia's training room.

In the second month since Vega set out to conquer the north of the empire, Shia's magic power was finally awakened due to her unremitting efforts. What was even more shocking was that when her magic power was awakened, Shia's mental power was also awakened.

The secret that Saint Laurent XVIII had no time to tell became self-evident at this moment.

Xia's talent has reached a level that is unmatched in the entire continent, even more amazing than the cheating Vega. The starting height of her spiritual awakening is at the upper level!
In other words.

From the moment Xia awakened her spiritual power, she has been a genuine upper-level magician, which means that as long as Xia devotes herself to improving her professional level and learning magic, she will be able to possess combat effectiveness.

The end point that others pursue throughout their lives is just the starting point for Xia.

Qi Lisi felt jealous from the bottom of her heart, but Xia's identity and the innocence she had lost prevented her from being jealous.

Therefore, in the past six months, Qilis had helped Xia to attend all the occasions she needed to attend, so that Xia could practice in seclusion with peace of mind and strive to improve her professional level as soon as possible.

However, before leaving, Silis felt that she had to say goodbye to Xia.

creak-

The door of the training room was opened by Xia.

When she saw Xia for the first time, Qi Lisi felt a chill on her back.

how to say?

It seemed that due to her great strength, she could not control it freely. Xia was now like a sharp sword. As an ordinary person, Qi Lisi only took a glance at her, and her sixth sense told her that the person in front of her was extremely dangerous.

"Ms. Celis."

Like ice and snow melting, with Xia's smile, the cold air like winter disappeared without a trace in an instant.

"Your Majesty, excuse me for asking, your strength..."

"Star Mage, a lower-level professional."

With an innocent expression, Xia couldn't wait to say to Qi Lisi: "Ms. Qi Lisi, although I haven't learned any combat skills or magic yet, with my current level, will Vega not abandon me next time I go on an expedition?"
