Mage Veigar

Chapter 623 Cat Plays with Mouse
knock knock --

There was a knock on the door.

Following the girl to the classroom was Vega's lieutenant.

"finally come."

Vega's mouth curled up into a bright smile.

If the officers of the Empire and the Holy Dragon Kingdom saw this smile, they would surely be unable to sleep or eat, because it meant that Vega was secretly planning something.

But this time the evil idea was not directed at others, but at the girl on the podium.

I guess what the adjutant brought at this time must be new textbooks. What kind of expression would the girl show if she saw that the first volume of the new textbooks was exactly the same as the one he compiled?

Surprise? Panic? Or fear?

Vega prepared to watch the next scene with interest. It was like a cat teasing a mouse that had sneaked into a pile of grain. The trembling appearance of the mouse must be the only pleasure for the cat.

"Teacher No. 3, excuse me."

The adjutant first glanced at Vega, then said to the girl who was about to start teaching on the podium: "The command has decided to use this batch of new textbooks starting today. Please distribute the textbooks to the students. Thank you for your hard work."

"Yes, my lord."

The girl looked at the adjutant with some fear, responded a little nervously, and then breathed a sigh of relief after watching Vega's adjutant leave. It seemed that the generals in the entire classroom were not as nervous as facing an adjutant with the rank of only captain.

"interesting."

Vega, who was sitting in the front row, found it more and more interesting the more he watched.

Should we say that this girl has good acting skills, or should we say that she is more natural? Does she really think that all the students in this class are lonely elderly people in nursing homes?

Next comes the main event.

Vega stared at the girl, looking forward to her performance when she opened the new textbook.

Salad——

A crisp sound.

This was the sound made by the girl as she opened the first textbook out of curiosity.

"what?"

First there was a cry of surprise. This faint sound did not attract the attention of the students in the back row, but Vega, who was sitting in the first row due to his height, heard it clearly.

"Don't act too boring."

Vega muttered to himself.

According to common sense, as a spy, he would be surprised when he saw the textbook for the first time, and he would realize that his non-human identity was exposed at the second glance, and then he would show a nervous expression and even try to escape.

If the girl's face changes drastically, she may try to run away.

Then Vega would order the guards to capture her and torture her without hesitation.

However, up to now, the possibility that the girl is a spy for the Free Alliance has been ruled out. If she were a spy for the Free Alliance, the Free Alliance would definitely not send this batch of textbooks to harm friendly forces. Therefore, Vega inferred that the girl probably belonged to one of the more than ten major Western countries. After all, the Alliance language textbooks of Western countries are the same.

So which country is this girl from?

Just when Vega was thinking about what kind of punishment to use to make the girl talk, the girl's next behavior made Vega's eyes widen. He was unable to come back to his senses for a long time, because the expression the girl showed was -

complacent.

That’s right, Vega was sure that there was absolutely nothing wrong with his eyesight.

The girl flipped through the new textbooks and compared them with the old textbooks she had compiled, with a very complacent expression on her face.

It's like a primary school student who got 100 points in the exam, and is very pleased with his paper. He can hardly hide the joy and pride in his heart, which is directly reflected on his face.

"Cough cough cough..."

Because it was too unexpected, Vega coughed. This cough seemed to scare the girl, like a child caught eating candy, her face turned red, and then she quickly lowered her head, picked up a stack of new textbooks and distributed them to each student one by one.

But the girl seemed to have very little strength.

It took her half a class to distribute the teaching materials to every student.

Moreover, she seemed to be quite timid and not good at socializing. It was obvious that she could get help from the students by just asking them to distribute the teaching materials, but she didn't say a word.

"Instructor No. 3."

Vega glanced at the girl's chest. The purple-gold tag had the number three written on it. Vega remembered the number for the time being.

He did not order the guards to arrest the girl, because Vega still couldn't figure out which force the girl belonged to and for what purpose she had joined his army. If he arrested her now, it would most likely alert the enemy.

Some assassins will commit suicide immediately if they find themselves exposed.

Plus, the other party looks so...

This can probably be described as stupid.

Therefore, Vega decided to lure the snake out of its hole and wait for the moment when she would reveal her fox tail.

However, he was worried about leaving this time bomb here, so Vega finally decided to transfer her to his side as an adjutant after returning.

Of course, this adjutant is only for monitoring purposes, not for real contact with military secrets.

Vega really didn't believe that if he put a whole cake in front of the mouse, the mouse could still control its desire? I guess within a week, the girl would reveal her true intention.

"No wonder cats tease mice before they kill them."

Vega couldn't help but smile: "It turns out that the cat and mouse game is so fun. In this boring world except for war, I really have to find some fun to relieve stress."

"1. Student No. 1."

Just when Vega was daydreaming, the girl's voice interrupted Vega's thoughts.

"Ok?"

Vega glanced at the podium in confusion.

The girl puffed up her cheeks and looked a little angry. She pointed at the blackboard and said, "Student No. 1, you are smiling so brightly. I believe you have already made up your mind. Please translate this paragraph for everyone."

"..."

Vega looked at the hieroglyphic words on the blackboard, not knowing where to start.

He looked at the still somewhat angry girl in confusion, not understanding why she would provoke him if he didn't bother her, or did she really not know his identity? Which force would send such an idiotic spy here?

Just when Vega was about to lose his reputation, there was a knock on the door.

knock knock --

It was still the adjutant who knocked on the door.

He smiled at the girl and said, "Instructor No. 3, excuse me for interrupting you again. The military is looking for Student No. 1 for something. Is it okay for me to take him away first?"

"No, no problem."

The girl seemed to get nervous again.

Vega nodded to the girl and walked out of the classroom.

Arriving at the empty corridor, the adjutant looked around and found that there was no one around. Then he leaned over and whispered in Vega's ear: "Your Highness, there is a new war situation in the empire that I need to report to you."

"I see."

Vega nodded and said, "This is not the place to discuss this. Let's go back to the military first."
