My Endless Life

Chapter 73 Something Happened to Derien

New Year is never a good holiday for a country in a state of war.

Because even on days like this, each other must be prepared for sneak attacks by enemy soldiers.

Not only the soldiers on the front line, but also the headquarters in the rear.

So whether it's New Year's Day or after New Year, Bolent is always busy.

This busyness lasted until the end of January and the beginning of February, when Bolent received news from English.

"Kili...Flores?"

Bolent looked at the report above, and there was obvious astonishment on his face that never seemed to have any emotional fluctuations.

The report said that Kiri Flores was Li Qi. His identity had been exposed by English, but instead of being arrested, he was still being cultivated as a genius.

It can be seen from this message that Li Qi has betrayed Uno.

Although this was news proactively released by English, Bolent fell into a long silence after seeing the news.

He held the report in his hand, looked at all the itinerary of the person 'Kili', picked up a cigar and smoked.

After puffing for a while, Bolent picked up the report and went to the office of Chief of General Staff Eamon.

"Are you worried that he will betray you?"

Eamonn, who understood Bolent's intention, looked at the report handed over by Bolent and asked softly.

Bolent's expression was solemn, he nodded slightly and said:

"Li Qi... is a true magic genius, and you also know English's attitude towards magic. If... if his talent is truly unprecedented, it wouldn't be surprising if he would be recruited by English. "

"If that's the case, then why did you let him go to English in the first place?"

"I want to keep him away from the battle between the reformists and the traditionalists. Moreover, Uno's magic system is indeed backward. Before guns come out, what we can really use is never a magician."

Bolent explains.

Uno's magic system is actually very backward when looking at the entire world.

Before the advent of firearms, Uno was just a small country attached to a certain kingdom.

After the advent of firearms, Uno truly became independent and became a separate country.

After more than a hundred years of development, Uno became what it is now.

But precisely because it was a country that became independent only after the emergence of firearms, Uno's internal theory of magic is not perfect.

Including devices for detecting magic talents and some knowledge about magic, they are far behind other countries.

Because of this, it would be a loss to let a magic genius like Li Qi stay in Uno.

Letting him go to English to learn magic is the best choice for him.

If English had not declared war on Uno, Bolent would have asked Li Qi to go to English as an exchange student after knowing Li Qi's talent.

Instead of making him a spy as originally planned.

"He is only fourteen years old."

Eamonn looked at Li Qi's information that was handed in with the report, and said while thinking:

"Young people, without ideological training, are indeed prone to detours."

"That……"

"But I'm sure he won't stay in England."

Before Bolent could say anything, Eamonn said with great certainty.

Bolent frowned and thought. Eamonn stood up, walked to the window, looked out the window, and said to Bolent:

"It is precisely because he is a genius that some people in English choose to let him leave."

"You mean...someone would want to harm him?"

"Of course, just like our traditionalists and reformists, English will definitely not be monolithic, no..."

Eamonn paused for a moment when he said this. He thought of the information he had seen in the battle report on the White Rock Strait, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly:

"It can even be said that their internal fighting is more serious than we thought."

When Bolent heard this, he also recalled some of the information he had seen, and couldn't help but nodded subconsciously.

Every family has sutras that are difficult to recite.

There is a vague tendency of incompatibility between the traditionalists and the reformists within Uno, and the same is true within English.

Many of them, many families, attach too much importance to the honor of magic and thus ignore international development.

If we say that in the past, the invention of firearms only caused magicians to fall from the altar, and they were no longer as high as before.

Then the emergence of magic orbs completely replaced the traditional profession of magician.

At least on the battlefield.

Many magicians in English are unwilling to accept this reality and do not want to make changes, so according to the report, 'Kili', who is barely close to the second princess, will naturally become the first target of their attack.

Because he is from Uno.

"When Li Qi comes back, protect him well and give him everything he deserves. Don't make people feel cold and defect to English."

At the end, Aemon turned around and said.

Bolent nodded.

Eamonn continued:

"Also, if you do anything in the future that is not confidential, you must make it clear to the person involved. You think you sent Li Qi to English for his own good, but if you don't make it clear, who can know your thoughts? What is it?

"If you do something, you should say it. At least let people know that you care about him. Otherwise, why would he work for you in the enemy's territory?"

"...Yes, I know."

"Also, don't go around recently. Pay attention to the orders from your superiors."

At the end, Eamon suddenly changed his words and reminded Borent.

Noticing the deep meaning in Eamon's tone, Borent looked up at Eamon, and the two looked at each other:

"...Is the marshal going to do it?"

"It's just right that while Farol and England have no time to deal with us, we should first clean up the blood-sucking bugs lying on Uno."

Eamon said lightly.

A ferocious smile appeared on Borent's scarred face.

"When the time comes, let me do the cleaning work in some places. I like 'cleaning' the most."

The New Year has passed, and it's time for a 'big cleaning' to bid farewell to the old and usher in the new.

...

Li Qi didn't know what happened to Uno.

Even if he knew, Li Qi wouldn't have any special reaction.

Obviously, the news about Li Qi from Uno was sent by the second princess Ilona on her own initiative, in order to make Li Qi a "traitor" of Uno in the eyes of everyone.

No matter what Li Qi's purpose was in coming to England, and no matter whether he was a spy or not.

As long as everyone thought that Li Qi had betrayed Uno and defected to England, then Li Qi would never be able to return to Uno.

He could only choose to stay here.

Stay in the magic academy.

Although he didn't know what the second princess Ilona did, from the recent "protection" around him, Li Qi could vaguely guess that Ilona would never let him go back.

In this regard, Li Qi said nothing.

He put all his energy into the research of the magic orb.

The magic orb sent from Uno had been unlocked by Li Qi.

By comparing the partial structure above with the magic structure on the "magic device" made by Professor Derian, Li Qi concluded that the inspiration source of Professor Derian's "magic device" was the same as the magic orb.

In most structures, they are very similar.

Only some places involving magic are different.

It is these differences that make the two magic orbs, which seem to have the same structure, develop in two different directions.

Li Qi absorbed the different knowledge from the two orbs, combined the two, and once again reproduced the "magic device" he made last time.

And it has been further improved.

After making orbs several times, Li Qi realized that the new "magic device" he developed, which combines the advantages of the two orbs, seems to have further improvement directions.

However, before Li Qi continued to study the new magic device, he heard a not-so-good news.

Professor Deren.

Something happened.
