Chapter 106: Vittorio II

A glance from Feder made Lukka realize his faux pas, and the Cavalry Leader immediately inserted his sword back into the scabbard before Vittorio even noticed him, knowing that this was a sign that Vittorio had not yet gained everyone's trust. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The other captains saw Vittorio straighten up and put his hands behind his waist, revealing a calm and old-fashioned look. Although all the captains subconsciously moved to the sides of the room, waiting for Vittorio to stand in front of Fidel himself and explain everything, when Vittorio's still childish voice came out, the two captains couldn't help but be amused by the serious scene and the mismatched children's voices, and laughed out loud.
"Please excuse me for trespassing into an internal meeting, which is not what a deputy head of mission should do, and of course I know why Head Fed did not invite me to this meeting, because the meeting is discussing my whereabouts. ”
Noor crossed his hands over his chest, he puffed through his nostrils and blew his beard, "It's good to know, you yourself admit to having held a position in the rebel organization, even if you have worked in our mercenary group for three months, you can't be completely sure of your loyalty!" Perhaps in the eyes of Noor and some of the captains, Vittorio was not regarded as the deputy head at all.
Fidel didn't speak, he just looked at Vittorio and tried to find some useful information in each other's eyes.
Vittorio, who had a firm look in his eyes, did not avoid Nur's questioning, and replied frankly: "It is an undeniable fact that I have indeed lived in the Rebel Order, but I am now the deputy head of the Potato Mercenary Regiment, and the connection with the Rebel Organization is only because I still have friends there, and those friends will bring us useful information, isn't that the matter of the Iron Ore Mountains?"
"That being said, we also have reasons why we doubt you—" Lukka didn't say anything about the Spy Teacher, but everyone else understood his hints.
"I know who is doubting me, and I know what reason they doubt me, so I'm just going to come forward and explain everything now," Vittorio interrupted Luca, then glanced at everyone and said, "Captain Fidel, it's almost time to make a decision on my stay or not." ”
Fidel thought about it, Vittorio had indeed served as the deputy head of the potato mercenary group for almost three months, and during this time, Fett also saw the ability and potential of this small businessman, if his identity was clear enough, if Fett could fully trust Vittorio, it would be a good choice to keep him as his deputy.
The others waited quietly for Vittorio to explain, while Vittorio took a parchment scroll from his bosom and opened it on Fide's table. This parchment scroll is signed by the Peace Grave Military Academy, and appears to be a certificate issued by the academy to cadets. Inside the scroll is written the official student Vittorio's enrollment time, graduation time, subjects studied, and subjects passed the examination. In addition to this information, there are also simple comments written by the head of the military academy and some of Vittorio's teachers, these words are clear at a glance, which makes Vittorio appear more three-dimensional, and makes Fide realize more about Vittorio.
"It turned out to be a student who studied for eight years at the Military Academy of the Peaceful Graves ... That's a long enough time, the average military academy has a maximum of five years of courses," Selena was the first to speak after Feld read the contents of the scroll to the crowd, "Vittorio, you have been a merchant since you were a child, and now you are only sixteen years old, which means that you are a businessman while studying at the military academy, and you are also working within the Rebel Organization while doing both. ”
"But the scroll says that Vittorio entered the Peace Grave Military Academy when he was three years old, which should be considered a child prodigy! And after such a long time of study, all the subjects offered should have been learned by you, right?!" Winoti is only three years older than Vittorio, this big-eyed girl has no formal education, and she can't even read words, so when she heard Vittorio's origin, her eyes immediately lit up, and she couldn't help it.
The other captains were also amazed by Vittorio's academic experience, because not only did the scroll introduce Vittorio's excellent grades, but he was also selected as the best student of the year at the Military Academy of the Tomb of Peace every year from the third year of his enrollment. In other words, the six-year-old Vittorio has overwhelmed other students who are much older than him with his learning ability and performance, and has become the most anticipated student at the Peace Graves Military Academy, and it is not an exaggeration to call this performance even a genius, and all captains can imagine that Vittorio was once a genius.
However, the comments of the dean and the teachers are intriguing, as one of the teachers commented: "Vittorio is gifted and talented, but his political consciousness is not as good as that of other students, he has a negative attitude towards the future of the principality, and he has not yet gained his own independent views on many issues, which will hinder his development." ”
"Vittorio was a very talented student, but he was not necessarily qualified for the position of Duchy officer for many reasons, but the most important was his anachronistic outlook. That's one of those comments.
Another comment reads: "Vittorio is a good student, but not a good graduate, we need to wait for the growth of this talented student, and if he can still show enough loyalty in his adult life, the Duchy of Magini should be reused for him." ”
These comments were read by Fid at the end, and the clever captain gradually wondered why, as the best student of the two military academies, Vittorio was now at the age of sixteen, appeared in the internal meeting of an alien mercenary group, why the young Vittorio joined the rebel group against the nobility of the principality, and why the spy teachers from the Black Swamp kept an eye on the curly-haired short merchant, all of which seemed to have something to do with his "political consciousness".
"Is all of that true?" Fide asked, looking at Vittorio.
"That's right, I didn't choose to serve as the ruler of the Duchy of Mageni, but chose to join the rebel organization after graduation, and business has been something I've been interested in since I was a child. ”
The other captains all started whispering.
Politics is not something that mercenaries should consider and interact with, but Vittorio has become a thorn in the side of those spy teachers because of the word "politics". Except for a reckless and careless man like Noor, who didn't realize it, everyone else understood what was wrong with Vittorio - if he was just an ordinary civilian, he wouldn't let anyone question anything if he wanted to join the rebels. However, Vittorio is a rare genius student of the Duchy of Magini in a century, and his performance at the Military Academy of the Peaceful Grave has made most of the military's top brass have high hopes for him, hoping that he can stand out from the many students of the academy and become the main general of the Duchy Magini in the future. After all, Vittorio entered school at the age of three, graduated at the age of eleven, and has always maintained excellent performance, such a person is really a rare material to be created, but he is interested in the rebel organization that is in rebellion.
"It's merciful for the Peace Grave Military Academy not to kill you and then abandon your corpse in the wilderness, and it has cultivated a military talent who is against them, no wonder those spy teachers let us monitor your every move. Noor's whispered explanation gave him a little bit of Vittorio's "problem".
"Even when I was a knight chief, my father warned me that knights exist to protect their chiefs, and they are swords and shields, but you should not discuss anything about politics with your chief, because that is something that rulers need to think about, and it will become very dangerous to have too many thoughts about 'swords and shields'. Selena said on the side.
Vittorio replied: "Yes, but politics is also a compulsory subject for us, although I am no longer in the Rebel Army, I already have my own political opinions, and I have no regrets about the choice to leave the Military Academy of the Peaceful Grave, after all, I will never serve the nobles of the Duchy of Magini." ”
The little merchant didn't explain why, but he made it clear. As soon as this happened, all the captains understood why the spy teachers who had come from the capital of the Duchy had asked Fid and them to keep an eye on Vittorio - because the "defection" of this young genius was unacceptable to the great military academy. They didn't want to waste the talent they had cultivated, but they didn't want him to flow into the rebel organization, and maybe if Vittorio returned to the rebel army now, he would be assassinated by Newt and others on the way.
Fide thought to himself that if he was the head of the Military Academy of the Peaceful Grave, he might be able to take Vittorio back and take care of him now, or even kill him, after all, Vittorio was no different from a traitor to the nobles of the Duchy of Magini.
"They're just trying to use me as bait, thinking that this will lure the leaders of the rebels out," Vittorio took out a medal from his bosom and put it on the table, a cadet medal of the Military Academy of the Peace Grave, "but the leaders of the rebels don't get together, and among the highest-ranking members of the rebels, there are nobles and even royalty from other countries." I'm a rebel cadre like Clermont at best, and it's impossible to use me to bring down the rebel organization. Vittorio's words made all the captains look at each other, and there is still a royal family in the organization of the rebels?!
Fei De sensed a hint of strangeness, if the rebel army was really supported by the huge forces of other countries, then wouldn't his potato mercenary group just hit the stone with an egg? But Vittorio's words could not be trusted, he was an excellent military talent in Koko, was Vittorio now standing in front of him intimidating or telling the truth?
Whatever the truth, Fidel has realized that he has been drawn into a huge vortex of strife, not only the rebels who want to overthrow the rule of Duke Mageni, not only the suspicious deputy commander, but also many unknowns that he has never imagined.
