Soul of Burning Steel

Nostradamus, no surname, no family, the Northern Empire, the first genius mage without any mysterious blood and family support, only relying on his own struggle, step by step to reach the ultimate goal, and is very likely to become a legendary genius mage.

He is proficient in any general-purpose spells and time-space spells, and has even developed a lot of unique personal magic. More than 30 years ago, he led the Imperial Mages to carry out group teleportation many times, raided the shaman army of the orc army, and three times in a row A complete victory sealed the victory on the battlefield.

Although Nostradamus has gradually stopped showing his face and is hiding behind the scenes, his disciples are numerous and spread all over the empire, from commoners to nobles, from elves to dwarves, as long as he is willing to learn, the white-haired old mage is willing to help them go On the path of magic.

But now, the old mage with such a glorious past is telling the warriors that he wants to build a mage academy in his territory.

As long as Joshua is not crazy, he will definitely not refuse this suggestion.

"Of course I support it."

Without hesitation, he replied that upon hearing the news from this account, Joshua felt much happier: "Master, it is undoubtedly my honor that you are willing to open a college in my territory, but there is a question..."

When he said this, the soldier's voice became low, and he asked with some doubts: "If you want to build a new mage academy, why did you choose my territory? Although I am confident that Moldavia is a good place, the empire is so It’s so big, there must be better options.”

There is no doubt that building a mage academy is a good thing for anyone, so why is Nostradamus hesitating in his voice? Joshua naturally wouldn't express his doubts, but he waited for the old mage's answer.

"……there are many reasons."

After being silent for a while, Nostradamus' voice appeared a little distorted through the communication array, with a slight repetition: "One of them is that due to some unknown reason, the concentration of magic energy in the Northland is constantly increasing. According to the Royal The Mage Association speculates that it is probably because the chaotic breath leaked from the time-space gate has been purified, although the current increase in mana power is not obvious, but the increase is very stable, which is very suitable for training new mages."

This is indeed a reasonable reason. Joshua nodded. For mages, the concentration of magic energy before a certain threshold can increase their ability to master and adapt to magic, but for the reason for the increase in concentration of magic energy, He has a different opinion.

——It should be a sign before the arrival of the great demon tide. The time and space barriers in the Northland are relatively weak. Even if I close almost all the time and space gates, in contrast, they are more sensitive than other places in the Mycroft Continent. Therefore, the foreign magic energy penetrated time and space, and came to the Northland earlier.

Joshua thought so.

The old mage is still explaining other reasons: "Secondly, in order to stay away from the undercurrent in the imperial capital, the northern land is far away from the central area of ​​the empire. No matter what kind of conspiracy it is, it will be difficult to harass your territory."

When he said this, Nostradamus's tone was a bit tired, he smiled wryly, and then said slowly: "Joshua, you are also a nobleman, you should understand that the conservative nobles have always been concerned about the fact that the Royal Masters Academy accepts commoner students. They feel dissatisfied, they think that common people can learn spells, but they will never allow these people to defile the magic holy land of the nobles, and I, the dean who was born as a commoner, is their biggest thorn in the side."

"Although the new generation of aristocrats who came from military exploits like His Majesty the Emperor and your father don't agree with them, there are almost seven conservatives among the ten nobles, and the two dukes are the most staunch conservatives. Under the influence of the government, I can no longer train students normally... And this is just the tip of the iceberg of the undercurrent in the imperial capital, and there are more invisible conspiracies brewing in the dark. The Royal Academy has too much political significance. It is no longer a holy place to train a new generation of mages."

Joshua listened to the old man talk about the undercurrents surging in the imperial capital. Since His Majesty the Emperor no longer pays attention to trivial matters other than war, the battle between the two dukes, the nobles' suppression of civilian promotion channels, and the conflicts between the princes The competition among the various forces has begun to become fierce.

These are problems that will inevitably arise in a country. For the sake of profit, or even simply to fight against opponents, various factions will naturally do their best to hinder each other. The old mage is right, the problems encountered by the Royal Mage Academy in the capital, It's just the tip of the iceberg of disputes. With the advent of the great era, the struggles within the empire will intensify.

But the soldier has always been too lazy to pay attention to such stupid things that waste his life. He scoffed at any conspiracy. He could tell that Nostradamus had more to say, so he continued to wait for the other party's further explanation.

"I'm going to open a War Mage Academy in the Northland for civilian students. They don't necessarily need to understand the mysteries contained in spells, but they must be masters of using spells. The topics studied by the Royal Mage Academy are too profound and have penetrated into the world. The origin of it is not a mystery that new mages can understand."

In the voice of the old mage, there was pride for the Royal Mages Academy, but also a hint of helplessness: "Magic is a tool, and the pursuit of truth is one of its functions, but other things are equally important. For civilians, the battle that can make them stand out Magic is the most practical, and it is what the empire needs most now."

Joshua nodded for scientific research and military industry. He can understand the difference in this aspect. Although the two complement each other, they really cannot be placed in the same place.

"War Mage Academy..."

Repeating this word, Joshua narrowed his eyes and thought for a while.

According to the old mage, Verdani, the lord of Moldova, was also his disciple. It was for this reason that the countess met Brandon and became husband and wife. And the war spell that Verdani used in the fortress also impressed Joshua deeply. The terrifying power of [Star Arc Broken] to wipe out all the monsters within a few kilometers in an instant is impossible for Joshua even now. Yes, although he can kill so many monsters, and will not be as exhausted as Verdani, but in terms of instant explosive power, he is far behind.

"To deal with demons in the future, we really need more war mages." Nodding his head, Joshua didn't think this was a problem, and at the other end of the communication line, Nostradamus' narration was coming to an end.

"Actually, these problems are not the biggest reasons... If I build the Mage Academy in your territory, then you will undoubtedly be targeted and attacked by conservatives."

Nostradamus's voice was very heavy: "You are the most powerful of the new generation of nobles I know, and you are also a warrior, and have nothing to do with the magic circle. But for those mad dogs In other words, this is not a reason to stop, so I hesitate."

There is nothing to hesitate about.

The soldier sneered: "Master, these are not problems. This is Moldavia, my territory of Joshua. No matter how turbulent the dark tide is in the imperial capital, it has nothing to do with me or my territory."

"And, if someone is really stupid enough to try to test me."

After speaking, Joshua shook his head and said with a smile, "It just so happens that I have recently finished training my body, and it would be a good thing to have someone to help me relieve my boredom."

Just as Joshua and Nostradamus were further discussing the establishment of the Mage Academy, in the study room of the Cemetery Church in the west of the city.

The silver-haired girl sat aside, staring blankly at a magic power projection with blue hair and black wings controlling the magic power, copying many complicated magic technology data in the storage crystal.

Firefly stared at No. 3's purple-blue crystallized metal body, her eyes flickered, and she looked very envious.

What a beautiful color...Miss Shenji sighed in her heart, after seeing it for so long, she couldn't help but want to touch this magnificent rune core.

No. 3 was unable to walk on his own due to the willingness of the main body. Usually, other maids helped push the cart to carry it, but the cemetery church is not a place that ordinary people can go to, and Rin usually handles official duties in the Lord's Mansion, so today is by Firefly to transport the main body of artificial intelligence.
