My Endless Life

"Extra- ... Compared to the stagnant Uno before, the current Uno is more prosperous.

"Eh? There is another news here, "Genius officer breaks into the enemy country and returns with technology"?

Someone flipped through the newspaper and found another news in the newspaper.

This news also occupied one side of the newspaper, and it wrote about the deeds of a genius officer named 'Rich'.

"Let me see... He won the Unicorn Medal on the Milne Front, and was later selected by Colonel Borent to sneak into the enemy country to obtain magic technology... Wait, he is not even fifteen years old this year?"

"Young hero, young hero!"

"Today, President Remus will hold an award ceremony for him in front of the palace. Let's go and see it together?"

"Let's go, let's go together!"

Passersby discussed and became interested in the young officer named 'Rich Glat'. They were ready to go to the square in front of the palace to watch the award ceremony of this young officer.

What the passersby didn't know was that next to the tavern where they were talking, two officers were sitting opposite each other in the corner.

One of them was the protagonist in the newspaper, Rich Glat.

"They are discussing you. You are going to be famous, Li Qi."

Li Qi's former superior, Wood Coffield, joked with the boy with a smile.

Li Qi sighed helplessly and said:

"I didn't expect the Propaganda Department to write about my deeds in the newspaper."

"How could it not be written?" Wood said, "A strategic-level person who is only fourteen years old, has a rare magical talent, and personally went to the enemy country to obtain the technology to make the magic orb further advanced. He is also the winner of the Unicorn Medal...

"Any of these things is worth writing about, not to mention that they are all concentrated on you."

"Too conspicuous, I always feel that it is easy to get into trouble."

"Your idea is not good. Young people should be energetic and aggressive. Why are you like a leisurely officer like me? "

Wood laughed and complained.

As a member of the traditional faction, Wood was lucky to be able to save his life after the fight.

But it is unlikely that he will return to the military and hold an important position.

Although Wood is still a captain now, his official position has been transferred to the city defense department, and it is still a less important position.

It is not wrong to say that he is an idle officer.

On the contrary, Li Qi, who is about to turn fifteen, is currently the youngest school-level officer in the entire Uno.

Although the current position has not been determined, it can be judged from what he has done that the future position will definitely be very important.

The future is bright, and Wood and him are completely incomparable.

Thinking of this, Wood couldn't help but sigh:

"I suggested you not to go to the Intelligence Department because I was worried that you would be involved in the fight between the two factions, but I didn't expect that in the end I would be the one who was eliminated after being involved in the fight, while you..."

"I was just lucky. "

Li Qi said truthfully.

This can only be called luck.

If Li Qi did not have a very high magic talent, if he had not been persecuted by the group of the Great Prince in England, if Mor had not suddenly changed his mind and wanted to kill Li Qi...

If there was a mistake in any step in the middle, Li Qi would no longer be Li Qi.

He would only become Gilly of England.

Perhaps it is precisely because of this that the Uno Propaganda Department has made a big publicity of Li Qi's deeds.

It is to make Li Qi and Uno completely bound, so that he will not I have the intention to return to England.

Rich Glatt is now a talented officer of Uno and a hero of the whole Uno. He will even be awarded the second hero medal and get what he deserves.

It is really unreasonable for Rich to be treated like this and want to go to England again by betraying his country.

"Lucky..."

Wood laughed dumbly and said no more.

He took the military cap and put it on his head, stood up and said to Rich:

"Okay, it's time to end the reminiscence. You still have the medal ceremony later, so I won't delay you."

"Are you going back?"

"Although the city defense department is idle, I can't leave my post for too long. After all, I am a legacy of the 'traditionalists' and I can't let anyone catch me."

Wood smiled self-deprecatingly, paid the bill and left.

Rich leaned back in his chair, looked at his back, looked at the crowd passing by outside, took a sip of the coffee on the table, and sighed:

"... Life. ”

It’s so fickle.

…

This award ceremony was very formal and grand.

Because Li Qi was not the only one to be awarded the honor.

In this struggle with the traditionalists, those members of the reformists who have made meritorious services will also participate in this award ceremony.

There were a lot of people, probably about twenty people.

At the same time, in addition to the medal ceremony, there was also the first military parade after the establishment of the Uno Federal Republic.

This military parade is open to everyone. It is no longer just for the nobles. Civilians in Uno can watch it, and even people from allied and enemy countries can watch it!

The purpose of Remus's military parade was to show Uno's current national and military strength in front of the world!

The ceremony officially started at 9:30 that morning.

Li Qi put on the uniform of an officer, put on his new magic weapon and the issued saber, and stood among the crowd who were preparing to be awarded the medal.

In the crowd, Li Qi was slightly shorter and more conspicuous.

What is even more eye-catching is the Unicorn Medal he wears on his chest. The silver medal shines in the sun, attracting everyone's attention.

"Is he Li Qi?"

"He looks about fifteen or sixteen years old, he is a major, and he has the Unicorn Medal... It must be him."

"You are so young. I heard that this time he brought the technology to improve the magic orb from English..."

"The strength of the Magic Army is about to increase again..."

There were murmurs from the officers all around.

Li Qi's expression did not change as he listened to this, standing as straight as a pillar.

After a while, the discussion gradually became quieter, and finally everyone became quiet.

Because in the distance, the carriage carrying President Uno Remus was driving towards this direction under the escort of guards.

Remus's arrival means that the investiture ceremony is about to begin.

The carriage stopped in the center of the square, and Remus, wearing a military uniform and a top hat, got out of the carriage.

It was also the first time that Li Qi met Generalissimo Uno, who had only been seen in legends before, and was now President Uno.

The image of Remus was not much different from the one in Li Qi's fantasy.

He is tall and burly, and even the military uniform cannot cover his muscles.

He has dark skin, regular facial features, and a neatly trimmed beard and sideburns, making him look very fierce.

The scars from the corners of his eyes to his chin only added to his fierce temperament.

Just from his appearance, you can tell that this person is very difficult to mess with.

What surprised Li Qi even more was that he didn't see any magic power from Remus.

Marshal Uno, the current President Uno, is actually an ordinary person without magic power!

"Everyone has—!"

Before Li Qi could think about it, the conductor of this ceremony shouted loudly:

"salute!"

Snap——

Everyone stood in unison, saluted, raised their right hands and placed them on the side of their foreheads: "Uno's glory will last forever!"

When Remus saw this, a smile appeared on his face and he returned the greeting:

"Uno's glory will last forever! Okay, let it all go."

After saluting, Remus walked to the viewing position and nodded to the adjutant beside him.

The adjutant turned around and shouted using communication magic:

"The awarding ceremony begins!"

There was no nonsense, no cumbersome opening speech. After Remus arrived, he started the medal ceremony directly.

Li Qi stood in the crowd, watching the officers who were decorated in front of him, and wrote down their names.

These people were all veterans of the reformist faction before, and now they are direct descendants of President Remus. There is no harm in writing down their names and dealing with them.

Li Qi even saw Bolrente among them.

Originally, Bolent was only a major in the Intelligence Department, but now he has become a colonel. Although he is still the minister of the Intelligence Department, the current Intelligence Department has much greater power than the previous Intelligence Department.

Not only Bolent, but those officers who were originally only at the rank of lieutenant and had no talent, also have the positions they deserve.

When the traditional nobles stopped causing trouble, everyone received the treatment they deserved.

Including Li Qi.

"Next, Li Qi Glatt!!"

While thinking about it, it was finally Li Qi's turn to award the medal.

Li Qi walked out of the crowd, walked up to Remus, and knelt down on one knee to salute under the gaze of everyone.

As he did before, Remus picked up the ceremonial sword used for conferring honors and placed it on Reacher's shoulder.

The adjutant on the side immediately said:

"Li Qi Glatt once led a team to kill enemy strategic officers on the Mien Front, and is the youngest recipient of the Unicorn Medal in history.

"He is also the most outstanding spy. He risked his life to bring back the enemy's magic weapon technology. He has courage, strategy, talent, and patriotism...

"Major Li Qi is now awarded the Uno First Class Medal of Honor, the Uno First Class Combat Medal, the post of deputy director of the Technical Department of the Magic Research Institute, and the title of 'Viscount' to Major Li Qi -!"

"At the same time, Major Li Qi is awarded the title of [Uno Gem]! I hope Major Li Qi will always shine like a gem!"
