This Awarding Ceremony had thoroughly tied Li Qi to Uno's wagon.
Not only had his military rank and position been elevated, but Li Qi had even been granted a viscount title of his own.
Everything he should have received in the past but had failed to obtain now belonged to Li Qi in full.
If Li Qi harbored treasonous thoughts, that would truly be unacceptable.
Of course, Li Qi himself had no intention of betraying his country.
His thoughts had always been simple: find a safe place to study magic.
Whether that place was Inglis or Uno did not matter. As long as it allowed him to survive whatever crises might arise in the future, that was enough.
He bowed, saluted, and delivered his speech for the Awarding Ceremony.
After completing the perfect set of formalities, Li Qi returned to his unit and sat down with the other officers.
This time, however, Li Qi attracted far more attention than before.
Especially the three medals on his chest—two silver and one gold—which made many officers green with envy.
After the Awarding Ceremony came the Military Parade.
As a staunch member of Remus's faction, Li Qi had the honor of sitting in the front row with the generals and colonels to watch the Military Parade.
The representative units in this Military Parade were the main forces of the various military factions.
The army, navy, Communications Soldiers, logistics troops, Cavalry Unit, and...
"Magic Corps..."
At the very end of all the units, Li Qi finally saw the army that had previously appeared only in course selections and intelligence reports.
They were a group of soldiers dressed completely differently from everyone else.
Their uniforms were dark black, and they wore flat military caps bearing the Magic Corps' exclusive Military Emblem.
Most eye-catching of all
