Mage Veigar

Chapter 847 Eliminate Suspicion
One by one, one by one.

Meru Scimitar sent all the detailed records of communication with various countries and all the alliances that had been concluded to Vega.

Looking at these things, Vega pretended to be stupid and asked: "Your Majesty Meru, what is your intention? You know that our country and the Western countries are mortal enemies, but you still sign an alliance with them. Does the Hundred Races Kingdom want to demonstrate to my Jialan Kingdom?"

"I dare not."

Kneeling down was not enough. Meru Scimitar even called himself a subject in front of Vega.

This also made the minister beside him look pale and humiliated, and he dared not raise his head anymore.

"Your Majesty, why don't you dare? Haven't you already done it?"

Veigar continued to press forward.

Meru said at this time: "The reason why I do all this is for your Majesty and the Kingdom of Jialan."

"How do you say this?"

"Your Majesty, don't you think that we need someone to infiltrate them?"

Meru chuckled and said, "Now the Western countries regard me as their own, and unconditionally believe that my country will lend them a passage to invade the East next year. In addition, I have received huge benefits from them and signed so many agreements with them, so they have absolutely no reason to doubt me. Under the premise that they believe everything I say, don't you think it's an opportunity, Your Majesty?"

"You mean, we should team up to do something bad to the West?"

Veigar smiled coldly and said, “If it is really as you said, you did the right thing, but how can I trust you? Just relying on your humble behavior is not enough.”

"I don't really have the ability to directly prove my loyalty."

Meru Scimitar smiled bitterly and said, "But the Hundred Races Kingdom is not a country that does not repay its gratitude. We were able to establish our country because of your Majesty's strong support. We, the whole nation, are thinking about repaying you all the time."

"Of course, these are just partial statements."

Meru Scimitar denied it again and said, "But my uncle once made great contributions to the Kingdom of Jialan, and my daughter is now your sister. With these complicated relationships, how could I betray you?"

Veigar did not answer immediately, but looked down at Meru Scimitar.

He watched for a whole minute, then Meru Scimitar knelt on the ground with his head lowered, waiting for Veigar's judgment.

"I believe you!"

In the end, Veigar nodded and chose to believe Meru Scimitar.

Because in Vega's view, anything else can be acted out, but the blood flowing in one's veins is the only thing that cannot be faked.

Once the Hundred Races United Kingdom betrayed the Kingdom of Galan, then Alysia would definitely die as a member of that side. As far as Vega knew, Meru Scimitar only had one son and one daughter. Even a tiger would not eat its own cubs, so Meru Scimitar would not let his only daughter die, especially when the benefits were almost the same.

That's right.

It is indeed a case of almost identical interests.

In Veigar's opinion, Meru Scimitar's behavior was just to get more benefits. As long as the benefits were similar to those given by the West, then because of the blood bond, he would have no reason to rebel.

Therefore, Veigar said to Meru Scimitar: "Although I cannot promise you 2/3 of the territory of the empire like the Western countries, if the war is won, our army will give up the northwest and southwest of the empire."

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Thank you, Your Majesty."

Meru Scimitar thanked him profusely with a smile on his face, looking like this was his real purpose.

This also made Vega completely let down his guard.

After clarifying the matter, Veigar and Meru Scimitar restored harmony.

So after some polite exchanges, Meru Scimitar followed the waiter to the guest room for rest. At the same time, he asked Vega to meet with Alysia. Of course, Vega nodded and agreed. After all, they were father and daughter.

----

Guest room. Meru Scimitar smiled as he watched the waiter leave, then gently closed the door.

creak-

But the moment he closed the door, his legs went weak and he collapsed to the ground, cold sweat pouring out of his forehead.

It's not that I have an incurable disease.

Although Meru Scimitar was reluctant to admit it, he was indeed frightened by Veigar.

The few minutes of staring made him extremely scared, fearing that he would be discovered by Vega and all his plans would be ruined.

Before this.

He held on desperately and maintained his image, but when he was alone, he could no longer suppress his fear, let alone maintain his previous image.

Fortunately he succeeded.

The flawless performance, the pressure on the daughter of the Galan Kingdom, and the credibility of his deceased uncle with Vega...all these reasons allowed him to get away with it and deceive those eyes that seemed to be able to see through the soul.

He wanted to laugh.

But he knew it was still too early, so he rested for a full twenty minutes before he regained some strength to stand up and prepare to meet his daughter.

knock knock --

There was a knock on the door, and Alissa walked in after getting Meru's permission.

"F-Father...I'm sorry."

Alysia had a slightly frightened expression on her face and started by apologizing.

Although Vega gave him courage, the psychological trauma of more than ten years obviously could not be eliminated in a day or two.

"Alysia, why are you apologizing?"

Meru Scimitar's face was full of kindness, which made Alysia feel happy and unfamiliar.

Because since she was a child, she always hoped that her father would have such an expression, but she had only seen this expression in her dreams.

"I'm sorry, father..."

Alysia apologized again: "I did not follow your request and work hard to become His Majesty Vega's wife, because Vega, His Majesty Vega is a gentle person, and I don't want to do anything to hurt him."

"A gentle... person?"

Meru Scimitar looked at his daughter with strange eyes.

He didn't understand how his daughter came to such a naive conclusion. The notorious murderer had nothing to do with gentleness in any way.

But surprisingly he did not blame his daughter.

"No concern."

Meru Scimitar said with concern: "As long as His Majesty Veigar allows you, you can do whatever you want. From now on, your father will no longer force you to do anything you don't want to do. I have realized that it was my father who was wrong before. I sincerely apologize to you here. Can you forgive your father?"

"Of course, Father."

Alysia shed tears of joy.

This kind of warm family affection has always been what she has dreamed of.

Gently touching Alyssia's head, Meru Scimitar smiled at her kindly, but the look in his eyes when he looked at Alyssia was filled with a hint of regret and guilt.
