Loyalty to God or loyalty to the king is a difficult question.

Before the rise of nationalism and nationalist ideas, the struggle between kingship and theocracy never stopped.

The king relied on money and worldly status to gain the allegiance of nobles and knights, and relied on the power of his followers to strengthen his position. Relying on the aristocracy's method of "equalizing interests" may have won the allegiance of many powerful followers, but it could not prevent the spread of religious ideas.

Green did not want to become a puppet like the king of Palomea, nor did he want to "balance" the various churches like the Kingdom of Northbod, so an idea that could replace religion was necessary.

"Chikage, what do you think of this Maid Code?" In the academy dormitory, Green handed the manuscript he had written to Chikage, asking the professional maid to help him with his staff.

Chikage took the manuscript and flipped through it.

"How?" Green asked.

"Not bad." Thousand Shadows is concise and to the point.

"Hmm...... Do you have any suggestions or comments? Do you think there is anything that needs to be added or modified? ”

"I think it's good."

"Hmm...... All right. "It seems that I can't get any advice from Chikage, so let's wait until I return to the Demon King City in the evening and consult with the two orc maids in the Demon King City.

Green looked at the time, put away the manuscript, stood up, picked up the textbook from the shelf, and left the dormitory, intending to go to the classroom.

"Hi ~ Green." In the hallway outside the house, Green meets Merlin.

Green glanced at Merlin, "Did something happen?" Your expression doesn't look a good thing. ”

"I couldn't sleep at the thought of having a mystery class today. I can already imagine the days when I was targeted by my professor. Merlin's expression was a little gloomy, "We're actually planning to plot against the professor?" It's crazy! ”

"Oh~ man, don't be so pessimistic. You are going to go home to inherit the family business in the future, even if the professor is not happy with you, can he still kill you? Be happy, what we're doing now is something that ordinary students would never be able to do. If successful, even professors will fall for our ideas. ”

"Ah...... Yes, the professor does pour. Merlin looked blank, "And it's going to fall badly." ”

"Don't talk about that." Greene paused, "By the way, Merlin, do you like maids?" ”

"Maid?" Merlin frowned slightly, "I don't like it at all." Ever since I ate my parents' monster hearts soaked in antiseptics, my parents have found a maid for me. I don't like that bald aunt who weighs 300 pounds and has giant blood at all! ”

"Well......" Green thought about the scene, "that's a bit tragic." ”

"Hmm...... Actually, it's not that bad. At least after that bald aunt came, I didn't have to go to my parents' lab to find food again. To be honest, the heart of that monster I don't know what it is not tasty at all......"

During the chat, the two left the dormitory and walked along the road to the open-air lecture hall.

"Hey~ Green, Merlin, are you ready?" Half-elf Rhaenys seemed to be in a good mood.

"Yes, I'm ready to face the professor's wrath." Merlin's face was full of sorrow.

"Oh~ man, this is a joint magic array! This is something that even many graduates can't do, and the professor will only praise us. Jim Gelkech lifted his glasses on the bridge of his nose and smiled at the corner of his mouth, "Use the combination of multiple small magic arrays to form a large joint magic array!" That's so cool! ~”

"I don't think we need to do this, can't we just show the magic array to the professor?" Merlin suggested.

Jim scoffed, "Oh~ Merlin, that's so stupid. If they didn't actually show it to those ordinary people, how would they understand the greatness of this magic array? ”

Merlin's face was full of sorrow, and he was very sad about the death of his companions.

Jim was right. If you don't actually show it, then it's just an ordinary 'United Magic Array'. The Combined Magic Circle is capable of uniting the forces of multiple mages to cast stronger and more powerful magic, but it is a technology that already exists. But that's not what we're going to use. The half-elf girl paused, "We are using a new type of magic array that has been improved on the basis of the combined magic array!" Although it is not as powerful as the original, our Combined Magic Circle has extremely high concealment and super fast reaction speed! If we don't show it, how can we show our innovation to professors and students? I don't want those idiots to take my hard work for the past few days as an ordinary Combined Magic Circle! ”

"I still prefer the classic Combined Magic Circle." Green opened his mouth to change the subject, "Theoretically, as long as there are enough spellcasters, even a group of magic apprentices can cast the Nine Rings spell!" Green smashed his mouth and looked at his two classmates, "I have to admit that you two are really geniuses. ”

"You don't need to admit it." The corners of Jim's mouth turned up, "Because it's true." ”

"Hmm...... Green, you're wrong. The half-elf girl glanced at Green, "Although the combined magic array can gather the magic power of a large number of magic apprentices to achieve joint spellcasting, it still needs to have a high-level mage to guide the magic power, otherwise it is impossible to cast the Nine Rings spell." ”

"With the current technical conditions, it is true that there is still a high-level spellcaster to guide it, but if this technology continues to improve, it may not be impossible in the future." Green spoke, "Since you can cast spells across two levels through the Combined Magic Array, why can't you cast spells across three levels?" If you can cross three levels, why can't you cross four levels? If it can be developed, the future prospects are very impressive! ”

Co-casting, a means of pooling the power of multiple mages to cast spells, usually used on some large strategic spells. Such as changing the climate, changing the terrain, summoning special creatures, and so on.

For Green, this technology really makes a lot of sense. Because Mona, who are born with magical powers, can also be regarded as magic apprentices from a certain point of view, this technology can gather the power of Mona and cast powerful magic! So Green has been learning this technique lately.

Co-casting is an advanced magic array technique, and it took a lot of effort for Green and Merlin to grasp this technique, but Jim and Rhaenys not only understood this technique, but also improved on the original, changing the effect of strengthening the power of magic to reduce the fluctuation of magic power and speed up the casting speed.

Green had to admit that these two classmates who were a bit of a stinky fart did have some skills.

While Green and his party were chatting, the occult professor Reyes walked through the classroom with a Mediterranean haircut.

Professor Reyes stood on the podium, placing the magic book in his hand on the table, and looked at the students around him.

Soon, the classroom fell silent.

Seeing that everyone was quiet, Professor Reyes smiled slightly: "Oh! ~Students, I haven't seen you in a week, I think you should have completed all the homework I assigned, right? It doesn't matter if it's not done, it's still too late to change the system and go to the magic department. ”

Merlin sat in his seat and looked at the smiling professor with a smile on his face, feeling a little subtle.

"I hope the professor will be able to laugh later......" Merlin prayed secretly for the professor in his heart.
