Chapter 58 Triple Identity
"Sister Mayale? What's wrong with you?"
In the quiet banquet hall, the sound was particularly harsh, so everyone couldn't help but turn their eyes to Mealli. Mealli just smiled apologetically, then shook her head, indicating that she was not seriously injured. Then she turned her head slightly and quickly conveyed everything she heard to Yi Ming. Yi Ming was also a little surprised by the sudden information. He didn't expect that in the eyes of some people with heart, his identities and Mealli would become so complicated. But this is good, if they are really suspicious, they would be scruples. But this means...
"The royal family and Marian's father do not have the same opinion?"
(There is indeed a possibility.)
"Miss Marian."
"What's the matter?"
When Marian heard Yiming call her name, he instinctively frowned, but did not say anything else, but asked lightly.
"What is a magic gem?"
"Magic gem..."
Upon hearing this question, a hint of ridicule appeared on Marien's face, but she did not say much, but expressed her contempt for Yiming's issue with her actions.
"Lita, tell him. This should be a course I have learned in the stage of the magic envoy."
"Oh? OK, I..."
Lita was shocked, but soon became nervous and explained to Yiming stammeringly.
According to Lita, magic stones are also magic stones, which are crystals formed by the flow and condensed by the magic spirit in the mines and monsters. However, unlike the crystals that store magic power that Yiming imagines, the only function of magic stones to magicians is to "coordinate resonance". Because magic stones are different from ordinary gems, they have a very sensitive sense of sound. The mages wearing magic stones can use it to enhance, improve or transform their own singing to improve their effectiveness. Simply put, it is equivalent to a singing amplifier.
"I thought magical gems would be embedded in magic wands..."
"I really don't know where you heard such a lack of common sense."
Marien said unhappily.
"Although with the magic array, the magic gem itself can resonate to cast some magic, it is not worth the effort. Moreover, as a magician, who will have the leisure to get the wooden stick next to it even if it is possible to start fighting in the next moment? The magic wand is a low-level equipment. Except for the imperial magic soldiers, even magic envoys like Lita will not use it."
"Magic Soldier?"
Another new word. When Marian heard this question, he widened his eyes in surprise, as if Yiming in front of her was a Martian creature.
"Are you really a member of this continent? You don't know about the magical corps of the Lea Empire?"
"I've heard of it, but I'm not that interested in these things."
Yi Ming was slightly shocked and hurriedly explained it vaguely, but Marien obviously did not pursue this issue.
"The Magic Corps is the most powerful army in the Empire, and every soldier among them is like you..."
As he said that, Marien looked at Yiming and Meali with a somewhat complicated expression.
“All talented warriors.”
Then he gave the answer.
"But as I know, low-level magic soldiers can only use the power of elements to create some fireball, wind blades, ice arrows, etc. Although this is not worth mentioning in the eyes of magicians, it will make people feel very troublesome to deal with ordinary soldiers. With the power of the magic wand, the combat power displayed by those magic soldiers cannot be ignored." As he said this, a trace of quite obvious pride appeared on Marien's face.
"Our empire does not survive until now by relying on five singing players."
(But Miss Marian, since the talented warriors are so powerful, why don’t other countries use the same troops?)
Mayalie said she was a little incomprehensible.
"That's because it's impossible. After all, talented warriors are not so easy to find, and there are always some methods."
Marian did not continue. Since the Leah Empire could create such a powerful magical coronation, it was naturally unique in its means or other aspects. It was another matter to be united in pride, and it was another matter to leak the secrets of his country without caring about it. In this regard, Marian was obviously very competent, so the two of them did not ask more questions. However, apart from this, Marian was still happy to answer other questions to them.
"In fact, if you two join the Magic Corps, you might be appreciated soon. After all, there are not many warriors like you who are powerful and possess magic weapons. The Empire spares no effort to select and improve talented talents. After all, unlike the Kingdom of Marco, we are not those conservative fools."
"What's wrong with that country?"
Immin asked curiously when he noticed the rare anger in Marien's tone.
"That country is the exact opposite of our empire."
Marien made a pretty helpless gesture.
"The leaders of that country completely disagree with the 'talent'. Anyone with talent will be driven out of the country by them. Listening to those fools, this is an injustice to others, which is really ridiculous!"
"Can such a country survive until now?"
Yi Ming's unhappiness is very obvious.
"That's the irony."
Marien sneered.
"The leaders of that country advocated efforts and believed that there was no effort to do. In fact, this was true, and those who had talented talents at birth would be expelled or simply hung. Because according to their country, these talented talents were threats to society and ordinary people and contempt for their efforts, hum! Although I hate this argument, I have to admit that thanks to the country's ignorance of such ignorant policies, we can get more soldiers from the Leah Empire. In fact, many of the magical corps are now expelled by the Kingdom of Marco or fled to our country's talented warriors."
Speaking of this, Marian was obviously tired.
"So, this is what happens in the world. Although we hate some things, we can only endure because they have the necessity and value of their existence. Although many people can't stand the practice of the Kingdom of Marco, only our country is the legion of the talented ones. If we provoke wars for such boring and naive reasons, even if we defeat them, we will not be able to get anything. After all, Yuria is a neutral country and is not suitable to take measures to attack any country..."
Marien stood up.
"This is an official argument, but I know that many people in the military who were born in that kingdom advocated attacking that country and even proposed a proposal for massacre."
"Massacre, massacre?"
Lita shrank nervously, and Marien had no special thoughts about this.
"It's normal. I'm obviously not wrong, I just have some ability when I was born, and I was discriminated against, attacked, or even killed by people around me. In this environment, it's natural for people who have no feelings for the place of birth and have a strong hatred. For them, those people are not their own compatriots at all, but just devils and thugs. Maybe many of them really want to be immersed in their blood and killing... This is not a scene that the royal family or the academy wants to see. After all, we are building an army, not a massacre group. If we want to take revenge, it doesn't matter how many people can be killed by our own strength, but it would be too unwise to involve the country."
"But, killing someone is wrong..."
"I don't think it's a big deal, Lita."
Yiming turned his wine glass and spoke as relaxed as if he was talking about today's breakfast.
"Even people are divided into those who should be killed and those who should not be killed. It is normal for anyone who threatens themselves to kill them."
(I also think that in any case, the so-called expulsion is just the manifestation of people's fear. They are just venting their instinctive fear of unknown things and simple jealousy. Therefore, there is no need for us to sympathize with those people at all, and it doesn't matter if we kill them.)
“…………It seems that you two have also been to that country?”
"Although we haven't been there, we have lived in similar environments, so we hate that idea, that's it."
Yiming just smiled relaxedly. Marien seemed to notice that it was too far away, so she smiled apologetically.
"Then, let's stop here. It seems a bit over. Yiming, my father should be waiting for you in the study. I'll guide you. As for Miss Meallie and Lita... If you don't mind, how about staying here tonight? I will order someone to prepare a guest room for you."
(OK.)
"Well...thank you sister Marian."
It was getting late, so it was impossible to go back to the academy under such circumstances. And Mealie also planned to stay here to see if she could get any information. So they quickly agreed to Marian's invitation, then Marian made a gesture, and soon a maid came and took them out of the banquet hall respectfully. Then, Marian bowed to Yiming.
"So, please come with me."
Yiming didn't say anything else, but stood up and left the banquet hall with Marian's leadership.
There was no one in the quiet corridor, and only the footsteps of two people echoed under the bright lights, which looked a little weird. While Yi Ming was focusing on recording the surrounding structures to ensure that no one eavesdropped on their conversation, he continued to ask. "Is the only thing magic gems can do?"
"Of course not. It can also be used as the energy transmission center of the magic circle. Of course, if it is not done well, it will be very bad if there is a problem with the magic circle. Like before us... But after all, there will be a dedicated person to arrange the magic circle every time it is arranged. After all, the magic circle has a large amount of purity and material requirements, otherwise, any part may have irreversible problems. Why are you asking these things? You are not a magician."
"Just curious."
Yi Ming said, stopping by the corridor and carefully admiring the oil paintings on the wall in front of him.
"Who is this person..."
The woman in the oil painting is elegant and luxurious, and looks very gentle and elegant, but what attracts Yiming is not her beauty, but she is almost exactly the same as Marien. The only difference is probably that the person in the painting looks relatively mature, while Marien is still very young. Of course, this cannot be Marien's self-portrait. No woman wants to see her when she is old.
"This is my mother."
Marien gently stroked the oil painting, and a hint of melancholy appeared in her expression.
"My mother died when she gave birth to me. I had no idea about her...Okay, Yiming, this is my father's study. Please come in. After you finish the talk, I will arrange someone to prepare a guest room for you, or do you want to have a room with Mealee?"
“One room is better.”
Yiming shrugged, then he pushed open the door and walked into the study, where Brad was waiting for his arrival.
"Hello, Mr. Yiming."
His tone was very sincere, but Yi Ming, who had just received information from Mealee, naturally would not treat him as an ordinary person.
"Is there anything you have to do with me? Lord Brad?"
"Please sit down, in fact, I do want to talk to you about something."
Brad signaled Yiming to sit down, then looked at him with a gentle smile, and then suddenly said.
Chapter completed!
