Mage Veigar

Chapter 823 Heart Disease
City of Ice and Fire.

The headquarters of the Jialan Army.

As the commander-in-chief of this operation, Hausman received a message from Vega, telling Hausman that the Galan Empire had signed an alliance with hundreds of tribes within the empire, agreeing to open the door to attack for the Galan Army at that time.

This news was crucial to Hausman.

The empire is 100% unaware of such a covert move in the northwest direction, which means that as long as an army is sent, it will be able to easily take over the entire northwest while the empire is completely unprepared, and then point the sword directly to the center of the empire.

"As expected of your Majesty."

Hausman gave a wry smile.

He worked so hard here for a long time but failed to eliminate the enemy's vigilance, while Vega effortlessly opened up such a secret attack route in more than half a month. It was obvious who was superior and who was inferior.

"I have to cheer up here too."

Hausman looked at the map.

He divided his troops into two groups. As long as they could capture the entire northeastern territory, mainly the cities of Kareni and Lopus, the troops on the west coast could capture the eastern part of the empire, mainly the cities of Erkia and Shelantu, plus the entire northwest territory obtained by Vega.

At that time, the three spearheads will all point to the center of the empire.

Then the demise of the empire would become a foregone conclusion, which means that taking over the empire in three months is not an unattainable dream, but something that is actually possible.

"But when will this empire withdraw its troops?"

Hausman was a little worried. He had clearly appeared to be harmless, but the imperial army was still stationed in the city of Kareni, with no intention of retreating.

"For now, it seems that all we can do is wait."

Hausmann finally sighed and prepared to continue waiting, while ordering the troops to maintain their original up and down movements to continue to confuse the eyes of the Imperial Army.

the other side.

Vega has returned to Saint Laurent with Alysia.

Vega did not develop a true brotherly love for this adopted sister, but only regarded her as a bond to ensure the continuation of the contract.

of course.

Veigar didn't have any aversion to her either.

Although she was only fifteen years old, she did not show any adolescent rebelliousness. Instead, she was very well-behaved and obedient. If you pointed to the east, she would not go west. Facing such a little girl, Vega of course treated her with courtesy.

"Alishia, I'm sorry for putting you through this these days."

Around the campfire, Vega said to Alysia: "But don't worry, we will reach Saint Laurent in three days. This hard life of sleeping in the wild will soon be over."

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty."

Alysia smiled and said, "I have nothing to worry about here, please don't worry about me."

"Since you are already my sister, you don't have to be so polite. Just call me brother."

"Yes, my Lord...Brother."

Alysia's voice was quite gentle and her smile was very bright, but to Vega's ears, there was no emotion at all.

More than that.

Vega also saw another thing from Alysia—

fear.

Although the other party concealed it very well, Vega, who was good at observing people's words and expressions, still saw it clearly. For so many days, Alicia had been on edge and had not relaxed for a single second.

This fear eventually caused Alysia to fall ill.

It should be said that Alicia's tense nerves prevented her from getting a good night's sleep. In addition, sleeping in the open air and traveling long distances made even the soldiers a little tired, not to mention a fifteen-year-old girl who had never been far away.

"How is Alysia?"

Vega asked the accompanying military doctor who had just finished examining Yalishia.

"Your Majesty, it's just a cold and a fever." The military doctor paused, then said, "But in this case, if you continue to travel long distances, your condition may continue to worsen."

"I know, you go down first."

Vega turned his gaze to another soldier: "Scout, are there any cities nearby?"

"It takes a day and a half to reach the nearest city, Lilttar."

"Order them to rest here for a day tomorrow."

Although it would only take another three days to reach Saint Laurent, Vega thought about it and decided to set up camp in the wild.

He didn't want anything to happen to Alysia.

After all, Alysia is the bond of the covenant, and the covenant has just been concluded. If something unexpected happens to Alysia, the covenant will probably be declared bankrupt.

"Your Majesty, I'm sorry."

Inside the tent, Alysia said timidly to Vega on the hospital bed: "Please don't worry about me, I can still hold on."

"Are you afraid of me?"

Vega got straight to the point.

This sentence also made Alysia's face pale: "No, not at all, why would I be afraid of your Majesty... Brother."

"It seems that Chief Meru has put a lot of pressure on you."

Vega said to himself: "If I'm not mistaken, he probably wants you to work hard to become my wife?"

"How do you know?"

Alysia looked terrified: "Brother... No, Your Majesty, I didn't mean to hide it..."

"All right."

Vega waved his hand and interrupted, "I don't mean to blame you. I just want to tell you that now that you have left your father, I will not force you to do anything except to ensure your safety. In other words, you are free now. You can be selfish and disobey your father's orders."

Disobeying your father's orders?

Alysia had never considered such a thing.

But Veigar's words were like the devil's whispers, tempting her to hide in hell, which sounded a little too tempting.

"Is this really okay?"

"Of course no problem."

Vega said straight to the point: "Your father threw you to the Jialan Empire. If nothing unexpected happens, as a bond to maintain the friendship between the two countries, he will never let you go back in this life, so just abandon all your concerns. Whether it's eating, drinking, or having fun, no matter what you want to do, as long as you don't leave the capital, Saint Laurent City, I will give you the greatest degree of freedom."

"Can you really put everything aside?"

Alysia asked again uncertainly.

"That's totally fine. You can even find someone to date if you want."

Vega smiled and said, "Of course, you can't be too high-profile about your relationship. After all, you are now the only princess of the Jialan Empire. You should pay attention to the dignity and honor of the royal family."

"Thank you, Your Majesty... Brother, it's completely different from what the rumors said. It turns out that you are a good person."

Alysia's tense nerves relaxed a little.

"A good person? Hahaha."

Vega was amused by this. If Alysia knew that he said so much just to help her resolve her worries and get better quickly so as not to hinder his return, he wondered if she would still think so.

After thinking about it for a while, Vega said goodbye to Alysia: "Don't force yourself, go to bed early."

It turns out.

Heart disease really needs to be treated with heart medicine. Once the knot in her heart was untied, it only took one day for Alysia to almost recover from her illness and she was able to start her journey home again.
