My Endless Life
Chapter 72 You Can't Be a Spy
Li Qi knew that Ilona was looking for an answer.
But unfortunately, Li Qi couldn't give her an accurate answer.
"Your Highness, you think highly of me. It was indeed the professor who was experimenting with the magic orb that day, and I was just assisting."
Li Qi lowered his head and answered.
This was the argument he and Derien had discussed. Even if Derien was here, he would use this argument to answer Ilona's question.
But Ilona obviously didn't believe it.
She said bluntly:
"I know it's you, or it must be you! Only you who come from Uno and have a magical talent that is rare in hundreds of years can have novel ideas that are completely different from those decadent magicians. Only then can we create something more novel!”
"Your Highness... Magic talent and creativity cannot be confused. Maybe I do have some talent in magic, but in terms of creativity, I really can't compare to Professor Derien.
“I’m really just an apprentice in this.”
Li Qi said sincerely.
Talent is one thing, creating inventions is another. Without the magic orbs of Derien and Levi as a reference, Li Qi would not be able to make the kind of magic device that can increase his strength to the extreme. '.
Ilona seemed to have misunderstood something. What Li Qi had to do now was to find a way to resolve this misunderstanding.
Li Qi kept evading, leaving Ilona silent.
She suddenly became quiet and stopped exploring what happened on the training field that day. After a while, Ilona said slowly:
"You're doing pretty well in Lankana, right?"
The corners of Li Qi's eyes twitched. Although he didn't understand the reason why Ilona asked this, Li Qi still answered:
"Yes, it's very nice here. The City of Magic deserves its reputation."
"That's not what I'm talking about. I've investigated you, Li Qi. When you were still underage, you went to the front line to fight with the enemy. At a young age, you won Uno's Unicorn Combat Medal...
"It stands to reason that a fighting hero like you will soon get your own title and be admired by thousands of people, but now you are a fugitive from Uno."
"..."
"I have also heard about the battle between the Uno traditionalists and the reformists, but in my opinion, no matter what kind of factional struggle it is, at least the most basic and fair attitude should be maintained towards the heroes of the country.
"Instead of letting you go into exile just because of your conflict with the nobles like now."
"Your Highness, what are you talking about..."
Li Qi didn't want to tell Ilona this.
But Ilona insisted on saying it.
She said seriously: "You should be able to guess what I want to say, Li Qi... No, Kiri!"
Ilona stood up and said loudly:
"Just because you are a commoner, you have forgotten your rewards and your achievements. Just because you are a commoner, you have chosen the nobles between you and the nobles. Is this kind of country... really worthy of your loyalty? "
"Your Highness..."
"And the other side—"
Ilona interrupted Li Qi and continued:
"You are a high-ranking magic genius, the future that Professor Julie and Professor Derien envision. As long as you continue to stay here, you will be able to get the...real honor that you couldn't get even with all your life!"
She spread her hands and reached out to Li Qi: "I think you should know which side to choose."
What Ilona said was very contagious.
From the perspective of others, Li Qi is a fighting hero who was persecuted due to domestic faction fighting and had to escape from Uno.
But in English, Li Qi got something he had never gotten before.
Pay attention to, care for, and cultivate.
The attitudes of the two sides are in sharp contrast. Any normal person should know which side to choose.
Li Qi looked at Ilona's outstretched hands, opened his mouth slightly, hesitated for a long time and then slowly said:
"…Your Highness, I am Kiri, Kiri…Flores."
Hearing Li Qi's answer, which was not an answer, Ilona smiled a little brighter. She put down her hands and turned the question back to the beginning:
"Very good, Kiri, then tell me now whether you were the one who experimented with the magic orb on the training field that day."
"It's me, but I use tactical-level spells to achieve that kind of power. Your Highness, if you had really investigated me, you should know my true strength."
Li Qi answered seriously.
Hearing Li Qi's answer, Ilona did not doubt anything this time. There was obvious disappointment on her face and she asked:
"In other words, you haven't improved the orb?"
"It has been improved a little, but not much. The power it can achieve is only that. Your Highness, I'm sorry to disappoint you."
Disappointment...there was indeed some disappointment, but Ilona quickly cheered up.
She looked at Li Qi, thought for a while and then said:
"It doesn't matter. You are only fourteen years old and your talent is so high. As long as you continue to study with Professor Derien, you will one day be able to research the orb that belongs to us, English."
Ilona naturally said the word "we" and regarded Li Qi as a member of English.
After finishing speaking, Ilona stood up and said goodbye: "It's getting late, so I won't disturb your study."
Ilona said and was about to walk out.
But before she left, Li Qi couldn't help asking a question that she shouldn't have asked:
"Your Highness, are you... not worried... that I actually came to Uno for another purpose?"
"You want to say that you are a spy?"
Ilona asked back with a smile.
Li Qi remained silent.
Who knew that Ilona suddenly laughed out loud, she laughed happily, the pleasant laughter echoed in the room, she said confidently:
"Hahaha, anyone could be a spy, you can't be."
"Why?"
"I already know your talent. There are only four people with your talent in the whole history, including you. Which country would send someone who may become the next god of magic as a spy?"
"..."
That is to say.
Is there a possibility...
It is that Uno and the others don't know my talent?
Li Qi was complaining in his heart, and heard Ilona say again:
"Even if they really do this, they are blind and let the pearl be covered in dust. If this is really the case, why do you still listen to them?"
"Your Highness, you are right..."
Li Qi complimented.
Ilona smiled and looked at Li Qi deeply, saying:
"Don't care about those messy things, Kiri, what you have to do now is to study hard and work with Professor Derian to create magic orbs for us England. I believe you can do it."
She said this to Li Qi seriously and left the room.
As the door closed, Li Qi breathed a sigh of relief.
It didn't matter whether Ilona found out that he was a spy.
After revealing Li Qi's talent, he couldn't be a spy, absolutely impossible!
He could only be Kiri, the fourth holder of the top magic talent in history with only three top talents.
He was the magic genius of England, the student of Professor Julie and Professor Derian, and the twelve stars of the magic academy.
Besides that, in the eyes of Ilona and the others, Li Qi would no longer be anyone else.
They would not allow Li Qi to be himself.
Thinking about this in his mind, Li Qi walked to the window and looked downstairs.
Although Ilona had already left in the carriage, there were many unfamiliar strangers around below.
Judging from their positions, they seemed to be protecting the dormitory where Li Qi was, but perhaps they were monitoring him more.
Looking at those people, Li Qi sighed in his heart.
He thought of the magic orb sent by Uno, and muttered to himself:
"... Commander Borent, you miscalculated."
Borent wanted Li Qi to learn magic knowledge here and then return to Uno to update Uno's magic theory.
But now, even if Li Qi wanted to leave England, it might be impossible.
