Mage Veigar

Chapter 846 Kowtow
In the conference room.

Vega sat in the main seat, and Alissa stood in front of Vega.

"Alysia, thank you for your hard work in traveling so long recently."

Veigar did not get to the point when he came up, but asked with concern: "If there is anything you are not used to, you can always tell me. After all, Jialan Kingdom and Baizu Kingdom are the most steadfast allies, and you are my sister."

The speaker is intentional, the listener is unintentional.

Vega's silent test did not let Alysia notice anything wrong.

She even thanked them, "Everyone has taken good care of me along the way. I haven't felt uncomfortable at all. Please rest assured, brother."

Alysia herself was deeply touched by Vega's concern.

After all, with a powerful enemy at the doorstep, the king was still able to care about her little things, which was a very gentle expression in Alysia's eyes.

Now she felt amused at her own fear.

Rumors are just rumors after all, and some things really need to be seen to be believed. For example, Vega Saint Laurent is not as cold-blooded and heartless as rumored, who regards human life as worthless. Instead, he is a gentle, considerate and careful king.

No matter if it was the last time she let go of her responsibilities.

It was the concern shown in his busy schedule this time that made Alysia confirm this.

Of course, there are also disadvantages.

Alysia thought that if Vega could be taller and more mature, he would be perfect.

Vega didn't know that Yalishia had made an all-round assessment of him in just a few minutes. He only knew that from the test just now, it could be seen that Yalishia did not know the inside story of the Hundred Races Kingdom.

Otherwise, when he talked about the friendship between the Jialan Kingdom and the Baizu Kingdom, as well as the relationship between brother and sister, if the other party had something to hide, it would inevitably reveal a flaw, especially since the other party was a girl under twenty years old and had little experience in the world.

But the other person's innocent look didn't allow her to notice the hidden meaning in his words.

Then there is at least a 50% chance that Alysia is completely unaware of this.

But just in case, Vega asked again: "By the way, has your father sent anyone to contact you recently?"

"Father?"

Alysia was stunned for a moment, and then once again understood it as Vega's concern for her.

It was Vega who advised her to go against her father's wishes and not take all the responsibility on herself, so Vega specifically asked this time. There was no other possibility except that he was concerned about whether she was coerced by her father again.

So she quickly answered sincerely: "No."

Vega looked directly into the other person's eyes, but still couldn't see anything in Alyssia's eyes. Instead, Alyssia lowered her head shyly, and a blush appeared on her face.

"That puts me at ease."

Seeing that he couldn't get any more information out of him, Vega nodded and wanted to end the conversation.

Alysia opened her mouth, wanting to say goodbye and leave, but when the words reached her lips, she retracted them.

For some reason, she subconsciously wanted to stay with Vega for a while longer, because here she felt a warmth that she had not felt in more than ten years. It was a very strange, tingling and addictive feeling.

She didn't know what kind of feeling this was.

Because this was the first time she had experienced this kind of feeling in her life.

Just as she was about to explore the nature of this warmth in depth, a knock on the door interrupted her thoughts.

"Come in." After getting Veigar's permission, a soldier walked in and said, "Your Majesty, the King of the United Kingdom of Hundred Races, Meru Scimitar, has said that he will visit Xierla City in three days to meet with you in person."

"I see, let's go."

Veigar frowned, feeling a little surprised at the imminent arrival of Meru Scimitar, but also thinking it was reasonable.

Therefore, even without guessing, one knows that the other party must have come to explain the frequent contacts with the West recently, so he wants to listen to what reasons the other party will bring in three days.

But this news was like a bolt from the blue to Alysia's ears.

Her expression was a little panicked.

Because she didn't know about the frequent contacts between the United Kingdom of Hundred Races and the Western countries, she unilaterally believed that her father Meru Scimitar came this time because she did not complete the task assigned to her at the beginning, which was to find a way to marry Vega.

"Brother, what should I do?"

Alysia was extremely panicked and subconsciously asked Vega.

Vega smiled and soothed him: "Don't forget that this is the territory of the Jialan Empire, and don't forget that your last name is Saint Laurent. The Jialan Empire will always be your strongest backing. As long as the Jialan flag is raised, you don't have to be afraid of anything."

"Well, I see."

Although Vega's comfort was very stiff, for some reason, Alysia felt calm all of a sudden. The awe she had for her father since she was a child disappeared in an instant.

Time flies and it’s three days later.

Vega welcomed Meru Scimitar, the king of the United Kingdom of Hundred Races.

as always.

When Meru Scimitar saw Veigar, he started to flatter him.

Bowing, speaking nice words, being humble and respectful... He seemed to have lowered his posture a little compared to before he became king, which made Vega nod with satisfaction.

When he invaded the northwest, he needed the chess piece Meru Scimitar, but now he no longer needs him. If he becomes king and puts on airs, Veigar might teach him a lesson.

Fortunately, Meru Scimitar was very sensible and behaved modestly enough.

Of course, Vega would not show his satisfaction on his face. After the greetings, he said with a half-smile, "I heard that your country has been in frequent contact with Western countries recently. I wonder what your Majesty Meru is up to."

"Your Majesty is wronged."

Meru Scimitar knelt on the ground without caring about his status as a king and said, "These are all the Western countries that took the initiative to contact me. I have no intention of rebelling against you. I came here this time to explain this matter to you."

This action not only made Vega look at him sideways, but also humiliated the ministers accompanying Meru.

As the king of a sovereign country, he actually knelt down to the king of another country. This would never happen even between a vassal state and a suzerain state, but their king actually knelt down as a matter of course.

And as a king, Meru Scimitar seems to have no awareness.

He acted like a servant, and quickly called out, "Quick! Bring up the records!"

Meru Scimitar ordered a minister who came with him to present to Veigar a detailed record of recent contacts with the Western countries, including some signed treaties and even a list of arms that the Free Alliance would send.

Kneel again.

Once again, everything was exposed to Vega without reservation.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see from this series of actions that Meru Scimitar was showing his loyalty.
