In the Morici Empire, the second emperor who succeeded was named Justinian, and at this time he was called Justinian the Great.
He is a descendant of the seventh grandson of Jupiter and is known for his wisdom.
With his coronation, the relationship between the empire and the north suddenly became tense.
It has to be said that for a long time, various contradictions between nobles and commoners, humans and orcs... have always existed, but they were suppressed by the powerful force of Emperor Jupiter.
After Jupiter passed away, various contradictions suddenly tended to intensify.
All scholars are predicting, war! A huge war is about to sweep across the entire continent!
…
School of Magicians.
Grape vines climbed all over the wooden frame, forming a shade shed.
Ilya and Taklau sat opposite each other, and there was a fine gold-inlaid porcelain in front of them, with mellow black tea brewed in it.
The magician is very resistant to alcoholic beverages because he wants to keep his mind sharp, but he likes this refreshing tea very much.
"I couldn't predict the whereabouts of Phil... But in the darkness, I saw hope..."
Taklaw first said: "Ilya, don't worry too much..."
He actually didn't have much affection for Phil who pretended to be struck by lightning.
Moreover, in Taklaw's heart, there is still a trace of worry, because the hope in the prophecy is not pure light, but also has a deep breath.
That is death, that is despair!
"Actually, I didn't do it for this... The empire has already raised troops, at least 400,000 troops can be equipped, and there are countless superstring warriors and heroes..."
Ilya picked up the teacup gracefully: "I have to admit that our strength is still insufficient. There are only two fourth-level magicians, more than enough to protect ourselves, but not enough to attack..."
"Well, it's just the beginning after all, and there are still very few truly outstanding talents. I think Lindsay and Rich are the most promising of the second generation..."
Taklaw said: "We also need to work hard to break through the threshold of the magister, but... that is really too difficult."
Between the fourth and fifth ranks is a real watershed.
No matter how good the aptitude is, it is not possible to break through in a short time.
"Once there is a war, many people will die..."
Elijah sighed.
"We have no choice." Taklaw said firmly.
"Actually, there are other options..." Mentioning this, Ilya's expression suddenly became a little subtle, and she handed a bronzing letter to Taklaw: "This is just received, you would never have guessed that it came from Who... a letter from Justinian the Great!"
"oh?"
Taklaw opened his eyes and raised his eyebrows: "He invited us to the imperial capital to establish a Royal Academy of Magicians? And promised to support it?"
"He is indeed a wise man. On the one hand, he threatened us with war, and on the other hand, he made conditions for us..." Elijah said, "I think this is acceptable..."
All she did was to promote magic and establish a magic net, but she had no interest in ruling power.
Joining the northern nobles and winning over the Duke is just a means to accomplish the goal.
In terms of power, who can compare to the current Emperor Justinian
"After the mercenary emperor left, the empire really needs strong military support and suppression... Magicians can be a part of it..." Taklaw put down the letter and said leisurely: "This His Majesty is indeed a smart man... But, you Don't be afraid, will the magical power we spread out eventually bite us back?"
"Hehe... I am confident that I can always surpass my apprentices, and after the magic net is established, there is no need to worry about all this..."
Elijah chuckled.
"It seems that you are inclined to agree?"
Taklaw already understood Ilya's choice.
"This can achieve my goal quickly, without killing too many people... Although I have never been afraid of letting the mainland fall into flames of war, it is always good to have fewer deaths..." Yi Liya smiled wryly: "And... as magic After spreading, the imperial nobles will finally get what they want."
"A few of our students did run away, not necessarily in the northern border, maybe they were recruited by the empire..." Taklaw nodded: "This is an inevitable thing."
"So... make peace..."
Ilya said calmly: "And as proof and determination, Justinian will marry a magician as his wife, the queen of the empire!"
"who is it?"
Taklaw suddenly became a little nervous.
Yi Liya looked at him and suddenly smiled like a hundred flowers blooming: "What are you worried about?"
"No, no, I just..." Taklaw blushed.
"If I was weak, in order to fulfill my wish, I might choose to sacrifice. Justinian's goal at the beginning was probably really me..."
Ilya seemed to be talking about a trivial matter: "But we are already the top powerhouses on the continent, and the mighty power belongs to us, so we don't have to wrong ourselves like this... My student, Lindsay, will become the queen of the empire."
"Her? It's very suitable, but it's a pity that the talent for magic."
Taklaw suddenly became quiet.
"After all, I am an emperor, so I can't be too negligent..." Ilya smiled softly: "Besides, as a noble girl, becoming a queen is already the biggest dream, right? In the entire empire, there is almost no one more empress than the emperor." Good husband chooses, I talked to Lindsay and she is willing to…”
Taklaw became a little nervous again: "I will divination the stars and choose the best time."
"Very well, order to go down and prepare to move."
Ilya smiled and said: "As for the connection with the nobles of the Northland, we still have to maintain..."
…
The empire has reconciled with the wizards and the nobles of the north!
The news quickly blew across the entire continent like a hurricane.
Although the empire lost a legendary emperor, it has joined a group of magicians and still has the power to check and balance.
This is also the wisdom of the ruler. The power that cannot be eliminated can only be tolerated.
Soon, some signs of instability disappeared quickly, and the entire continent was thriving, looking forward to the emperor's wedding.
The reality of the extraordinary world is that power suppresses everything.
Jupiter suppressed the empire for two hundred years with his legendary strength, which is the best example!
The originally turbulent empire became stable again because of Justinian's wisdom.
In the imperial capital, a grand wedding is going on.
And in the outskirts, a huge mage tower and the surrounding mage academy are being built.
Many nobles can't wait to send their second sons and even first sons into it to share the power of magic.
The biggest part of it comes from the royal family.
As for Richie, who was crying and fainted in the toilet, he has been forgotten by everyone...
