Mage Veigar

Chapter 864: We Are All Fallen

Imperial Army, front-line combat command.

Vega sat in the makeshift garden, enjoying the coolness of late spring and early summer.

Almost all the fighting stopped in the past few days, and he had a rare chance of leisure.

The reason for stopping is simple.

Vega gave the order that as long as the armies of the Western countries did not move a step, they would not be attacked, and they could stay where they were as long as they wanted.

After all, the Western countries have come from afar.

For them, the longer the delay, the more demoralized the army would be, not to mention that they were already seriously short of supplies due to their hasty march. Vega could afford to delay, but that didn't mean they could.

If the time is correct.

In ten days at most, the Western countries will have to make a decision whether to break out or surrender.

Because after ten days, their supplies will be exhausted. Without supplies, the entire army will collapse. Even an ordinary soldier knows this, not to mention the officers.

In Vega's speculation.

The probability of Western countries surrendering is 90 percent.

Because whether they move forward or backward, they seem to have nowhere to go. If they move forward, the road ahead is long and far away; if they retreat, the air force is watching them covetously from behind, and if they experience another air raid, even if they agree, the soldiers will not agree.

of course.

Although he expected the enemy to surrender, it did not mean that Vega was not prepared for the enemy to break out.

Once the enemy breaks through, Vega has plenty of ways to wipe them out here.

This is why Veigar is so leisurely.

To him, the Western countries are indeed puppets.

"After this war, it will be time to settle the accounts."

Veigar showed a cold smile, which was obviously directed at Meru Scimitar who was far away in Lacacia City.

Vega will never forgive those who betray him.

Since the Hundred Races Kingdom betrayed the alliance, it must bear his wrath. If it weren't for Silis discovering it in advance, the war would have gone to another extreme, and it would not be him who is leisurely here, but the Western countries.

"His Majesty."

Just at this moment, a sudden voice interrupted Vega's thoughts.

Turning their heads, the Leia sisters told Vega that Alysia wanted to see her.

"I haven't seen her for some time."

Veigar nodded and agreed to meet with Meru Scimitar's daughter, his step-sister Alysia.

in his impression.

When the Hundred Tribes Kingdom betrayed the Galan Kingdom, Alysia once asked him to kill her to atone for the crime, but Veigar did not allow it. Because in Veigar's view, although Alysia was related to Meru Scimitar by blood, she was just a pitiful sacrifice.

It was first used as a bond to maintain the covenant.

Later, he was betrayed by Meru Scimitar and used as a pawn to confuse his eyes and make him make wrong judgments.

Therefore for such people.

Vega did not have any hatred in his heart, only sympathy.

It can indeed be described as sympathetic.

He himself is a person who is often betrayed, whether in the empire or in the dynasty later. Even now, he is still being betrayed. The word "betrayal" still makes Vega extremely angry.

But in the end, he was betrayed by someone who was not even a friend.

On the other hand, Alysia was treated as a pawn, and the person who betrayed her was her own father.

Vega thought that he could not even imagine the negative emotions that came with being betrayed by one's own blood.

As a fellow wanderer, Vega could only feel sympathy for this girl who was even more miserable than him.

of course.

Sympathy is based on harmlessness.

If Alysia planned to help the evildoers and cause harm to him or the Kingdom of Galan because of her relationship with Meru Scimitar, I am afraid that Vega would not keep this person.

Fortunately, the other party didn't.

Alysia seemed to feel deeply guilty towards him and took the blame on herself.

Just look at what is in front of you.

As soon as she saw Vega, Alysia knelt on the ground, not daring to even raise her head, and uttered the same old apology words.

"Brother... Your Majesty, I'm sorry. I'm really sorry."

Alysia kept apologizing, "I know I am not qualified to ask for your forgiveness, but please punish me. If it can calm your anger, no matter what the punishment is, even if it means I will die immediately, I will accept it willingly."

"It's a punishment."

Vega had a headache. He thought for a while and said, "Then I will punish you. From today on, you are not allowed to see your father, your brother, or any of your relatives again in your life. Are you willing to accept this punishment? If not, then I can only choose to execute you."

This is Veigar's bottom line.

Although he believed that Alysia had done nothing wrong in this matter and even sympathized with her, Vega Vega also believed that not making mistakes now did not mean that mistakes would not be made in the future, especially when facing the instigation of blood relatives.

Therefore, we can only cut this bond forcibly.

This is also done to protect Yalishia, because Veigar will definitely kill Meru Scimitar and his people.

Alysia finally raised her head: "Your Majesty, is this really okay?"

"Call me brother, you are still the princess of the Jialan Empire." Vega said firmly.

"Brother, brother."

Alysia forced herself to stop the tears in her eyes, and asked before leaving: "Brother, although I know I shouldn't ask, but I still want to ask you, after this war, how will you deal with father and others..."

"Don't worry, I won't kill them." Vega said to Alysia with a smile.

After receiving Vega's answer, Alissa could no longer hold back the tears in her eyes and burst into tears.

Because she knew that Vega was deceiving her.

Her father and brother will eventually be executed.

But she was not crying because her father and brother would inevitably be executed. Since they had made a mistake, they should be punished, and she herself was prepared to die.

The reason why she was crying was.

Not only did Vega not kill her, he also told her a gentle lie.

That's right, combined with the punishment, it can be inferred that Vega lied to her and hoped that she could live the rest of her life happily in the lie.

This is indeed a very gentle lie.

To a sinner like her.

Not only did he not execute her, he also told her a gentle lie.

Even though she knew that her loved ones were about to die at the hands of the other party, she could not hate him no matter what.

Anger at being betrayed by my biological father.

For that gentle lie and the touch of being easily forgiven.

Grief over the impending death of a loved one.

Guilt for not being able to hate the person who murdered his father.

These countless conflicting emotions made it impossible for Alyssia to hold back her tears.
