Chapter 119 Returning to Destras magic academy 1 (1/2)

Mars looked around the inside of the military sky carriage and found it was surprisingly wide, upon entering he found himself in some sort of common room with soldiers milling about the tables but as soon as Varvei entreated they all stopped and saluted her witch caused her to give yet another sigh

”...carry on”

some of the soldiers went up to Varvei and talked with her while Mars watched form the side until someone poked him on the shoulder and he turned around and gave a smile

”hi Vanessa”

”hi Mars”

Mars looked around and didn't see the rest of the squad and asked

”where are the others?”

Vanessa gave a sigh

”they weren't as committed as me”

”I see...”

Vanessa gave a weak smile and gestured for Mars to sit down at on the tables, Mars sat down and so did Vanessa

”can I ask you something?”

”what is it Mars?”

”it's just for the record, what happened in the rebellion?”

”...Varvei have not told you yet?”

”nope”

”I see... well in that case sure I can tell you”

Vanessa rested her elbows on the table and looked over at Varvei while she begun talking

”the rebellion technically started when the at that time head of magic research Shawn a rare space-time mage summoned a so called hero from another world”

”a hero?”

”yeah from some other weird world... well the hero grew powerful over the years serving the empire for a few years while he in secret formed his own faction in the upper society in the empire and plotted to overthrow the emperor”

”and that's what happened?”

”yep after half a year of bloody fighting did the old emperor surrender to the rebellion at sword point... and so now a otherworlder rules one of the most powerful empires in all of Salen... weird isn't it?”

Mars nodded

”yep sure sounds weird... my I should overthrow him?”

Vanessa smiled at what she thought was a joke, little did she know Mars was completely serious

”well I have things to do before that...”

”oh things more important than conquest? do tell”

”well I suppose i could...”

Mars cleared his throat

”well handsome as I am, I naturally have many admirers... it's just I have no idea what to do about them...”

”what do you mean 'do about them'?”

”well... if I should date one of them... or all of them”

”well dragons are famed for their lust... so just do whatever?”

”why are you asking me?”

”well because I don't know any of you admirers”

”yes you do”

”who?”

Mars pointed over at Varvei

”...are you serious?”

”...yep, that I am”

Vanessa covered her mouth with her hands in shook before she blurted out

”no way”

”yes way, I'm serious”

”but... but the only thing the general love is her beloved dragon spear”

”dragon spear?”

Vanessa gave a nod

”yeah her primary weapon... but still for spring time to have come to our general... this must be investigated further”

Vanessa suddenly stood up with a glint in her eyes and walked over to Varvei then grabbed her and dragged her into a room along with some other female soldiers, seeing this Mars gave a sigh and petted his legs witch Victoria jumped up on moments later and laid down

”this is going to be a long trip...”

”really..?”

”no I'm just taking pity on Varvei... women are scary”

Victoria tilted her head to the side as her horns flashed

”okay..?”

Mars put his hand down on her head and slowly petted her while time slowly passed as the military sky carriage flew further south...

Just about 10 days passed before the military sky carriage landed again Mars, Varvei and Victoria stepped out and turned back and saw Jeff was seeing them off, he gave a salute
