Basalan Imperial Capital, within the Royal Order of Wizards.

High-level wizards from all parts of the empire have been staying here for more than half a month, and the discussion of the immortal summoning incident is still inconclusive, and even some imperial wizards blame the source of the incident on the remnants of the undestroyed forces in the early days of the founding of the country, believing that they have been involved in forces that should not be spied on and take revenge on the empire.

There are many people who agree with this view.

But many people still don't believe in the so-called ancient god believers......

Old Gods.

The term first appeared in the study of archaeological records, and was originally named by them, mainly to describe some things that people believed in ancient times...... Nature, the unknown, or those that cannot be explained, but have great powers. However, most of the studies do not contain any direct records of the ancient gods.

Most of it is an artificial organization and then believes in something that does not exist at all.

Of course, there are some parts that are difficult to explain.

It's like an unsolved mystery......

But these do not directly become the basis for the existence of the ancient gods, there are still a large number of people who believe that seeing is believing and need more evidence, because in their understanding, if there really is a god in the world, then it should have appeared a long time ago, and there is no record of its appearance in the history of mankind for thousands or even tens of thousands of years.

As for those misshapen creatures, they can only be regarded as the wrong creations of nature and cannot be the basis for the existence of the ancient gods, so the discussion about the Tacoma region seems to be very strong, but in fact, the actual progress has not been much.

Frelia alone was called several times, because she was the only one in Tacoma who had seen the so-called Old Gods with her own eyes......

"I've said many times I've seen so-called deep divers, and the followers of the Old Gods with octopus heads, and all they have to summon is a giant octopus tentacle!"

In fact, this explanation has been repeated more than once, and at first it was even explained among members of the royal family.

But there are still those who will question it......

"There were many people who saw it at the time, including the head of the Black Feather Knights. ”

"Of course, we don't suspect you of lying to Frelia, the Red Dragon Witch, and later investigations have uncovered some mutants who were hiding in the depths of the swamp. ”

"They're called Deep Divers, Your Excellency. Frelia retorted.

"Whatever they call them for now, maybe they're just a mutant race corrupted by magic? ”

Clearly sensing that there was something targeted in the other party's words, Frelia replied dissatisfied.

"I would like to remind you one more thing, Your Excellency. It doesn't belong to any human species at all, it's another species we've never come into contact with. ”

"A lot of people think in some kind of crisis that what they see is the truth, and we have to be realistic...... Miss Witch. The questioning officer said with an incomprehensible smile, then turned to face the larger audience.

"This matter needs more evidence and investigation, but the events in the Tacoma area have really brought us immeasurable disasters......

"I think the most important thing at the moment is the reconstruction work......

"Maybe the same thing will happen in another area, I think it's more important to strengthen the defense, we need more strength!"

“...... But that's too expensive......"

"So we need to readjust some of our policies, such as tax ......"

"Yes, each lord should strengthen their defenses and recruit more capable people. ”

"You are......"

"Give me all peace!"

There was only one person sitting in the center on the high platform and not saying anything, just listening to the speech below was noisy enough, and there was another beautiful woman sitting next to him.

At this time, the king of Basalam had not yet come up with a deal to deal with the Tacoma region......

In less than a month, there were two unknown attacks in my own country, and this kind of explanation is obviously untenable by chance. Over the years, the Basharan Empire has abandoned the policy of external expansion in favor of developing domestic demand, and now it has gone through the efforts of two generations of kings to get to where it is today.

Can ...... now

It was as if the very foundations of the country had been shaken.

The aristocracy began to demand more liberal policies from them, and the catastrophe of the empire required increased taxation.

I heard that there has been a lot of haunting of people who are religious believers in recent times, as if these two incidents have made their previously unbelieving propaganda more credible.

In fact, the officials present continued, otherwise the ancient gods' remarks also had this reason in it.

If the people begin to believe in an ethereal existence, their rule will be in jeopardy......

He turned over the two events and kept comparing what happened.

I actually found a very interesting character in it......

"Sean Wigel. Silently reciting the name.

........................

On the road to the southeastern region......

Sean led a team of more than two hundred people to the Tacoma area on foot, no. It should be called the Oro region now!

A few days ago, the herald from the imperial capital finally arrived in Telemien and announced Sean's promotion to earl.

Since then, the Tacoma region has been renamed the Oro region......

New Urro will choose Oro, the large city west of Tacoma, to name the new region and officially proclaim the new Count Sean Wiggle as Lord of Oro.

There were also two hundred troops accompanying the herald, and of course they became the personal guards around Sean in the future, and the level was not bad, and almost all of them were in the range of level 3~4 of the orderly......

In order to reach Oro City first, Sean will first take this team over, and leave the affairs of Telemian Town to Luke, and when the place is determined here, he will mobilize all the townspeople to gradually move to the new city.

Sean also specially invited the Skovi siblings, after all, Count Hamil has already known about his dealings with them in Koga City, and it may bring them some unnecessary trouble in the future, so it is better to follow him to the new city for development.

On this point, I didn't expect Esmaida to agree very happily!

Later, after thinking about it, she chose the best project as a businessman, compared to losing the source of customers on the side of Koga City and gaining the support of a lord, the latter was obviously much stronger than the former, so she chose Oro City without the slightest hesitation, but it would take a little time to sell Skovi's property, and the younger brother would be busy with the last things.

As for Igonia...... As the Witch of Elinta in Koga City, she couldn't leave the city for the time being.

At least she couldn't get far until Aeshu returned......

The only thing left in the whole team was these new guards and a historian from the imperial capital.

The other party came with the herald, but the herald left after announcing the appointment and dismissal, and he was the only one who followed.

A man of about forty years of age, whose name was Rose. It is said that he is also a famous recorder in the imperial capital...... There are a lot of historical documents written by him.

"Has Lord Ross always been in this job?" said Sean, who would also talk to each other about homely topics.

"Are you referring to the recorder?"

"All have ......"

The other party smiled, a meaningful feeling.

"Actually, I like my current profession very much, everyone has their own glory, and it is my honor to protect important history, even if I don't have an oath it is my life's creed. "The expression is serious.

"So, Your Excellency Ross is very well researched in history. ”

"At least in the Basalan Empire, I think my fame is not bad. The other party replied with a smile.
