Chapter 837: The King's Council
It is a palatial-looking palace.
The dome is high above, and the magnificent inverted crystal lamp reflects the entire huge space with brilliant transparency.
If there's anything wrong with this, it's probably that this huge room has no windows.
There was even one door—a double-walled sandalwood door covered in black lacquer leather, and trimmed with golden rococo lace.
In the room, the most eye-catching, apart from the crystal chandelier in the dome, is the ring-like purple beech conference table placed in the center of the room.
The maids, dressed like the daughters of the nobles from the outside world, filled all the cups in front of the attendees with tea, and then all withdrew and left the room.
The only things that remained in the room were the pot-bellied or the majestic, who were well-known throughout the Eastern Plains—though more than half of them were not of good fame—and the bodyguards whom they absolutely trusted, who could be called confidants.
As long as you have a little knowledge, you can easily recognize them here as the 'kings' of the various kingdoms of the Eastern Plains, which are still in a state of division.
And what this room represents is undoubtedly the "King's Council", which is one of the three major forces in the Eastern Plains and the Mage Association and the Pure White Church!
"Long greetings, I don't know if you're okay?"
The middle-aged man with a lion-like mane and flaming red hair in the chief greeted everyone in the room in a deep voice.
This is a routine signal, the official start of the Mage Council. Able to make all those who were still whispering to the king at the next table stop and listen to him.
"Very bad, Brother Joseph."
The first to answer is a man who looks chubby and gives the first impression of being honest.
No one would think that the true portrayal of this seemingly honest guy in his heart would be the same as the honest and honest expression on his face, because all the guys who thought so far had disappeared, and there was no news, as if the world had evaporated.
If the current comprehensive national strength is ranked from strong to weak, there is no doubt that the country controlled by this chubby man can be ranked in the top ten.
"Oh? What's wrong? ”
Bart. Joseph, the Emperor of the Horngolat Empire, suddenly turned his stern gaze to the chubby man, which made the latter shiver subconsciously.
After a pause, the chubby man calmed down. Go on.
"A few days ago. There's been a heavy snowfall in my jurisdiction...... I'm sure you'll be familiar with that snow. ”
Hearing this, the other kings also nodded.
It can be said that during these days, ninety percent of the affairs they have reviewed or have a headache for are not unrelated to the heavy snowfall.
"That's right. It's the snow that the Seven Yao Mages Association and the damn magic academy have caused! ”
The chubby man's words seemed to ignite a bombshell. The whole conference room was silent for a moment. Then it was suddenly drowned out in countless noisy whispers!
The chubby man seemed very satisfied with the effect of his words, and looked at the scene of the riot with a smile.
"Silence me!"
Bart. Joseph's lion-like roar instantly drowned out the buzzing whispers, calming down the already chaotic conference room again.
This made the chubby man look at him with great jealousy. Then he lowered his head.
"Karn. Your Excellency, if you can't produce evidence, please don't say such things in a vacuum. Our regime is inherently related to those magicians, and it is not a good thing to anger them for the sake of some rumors. ”
The majestic words resounded through the scene, causing the other kings to nod their heads involuntarily.
Although the King's Council was the only one of the three forces that actually maintained an army, others such as the Mage Guild and the Pure White Church consisted of only three or four hundred mage troops or chants at most.
But if it really angers the magicians, even if they are high kings, I am afraid that they will only have nothing to eat and walk around.
"Does this still need proof? You see, in the past few days, we have also sent our own disaster relief team to save those untouchables who are trapped in the snow disaster, but they are not grateful at all, but they are grateful to the magicians of the Mage Association. And the pure white church is taking advantage of this time to preach, trying to let its tentacles penetrate deep into the territory of our rule and erode our power...... And the Adric Academy of Magic, which came out of nowhere, was even more widely praised by those untouchables, and even in their eyes, even those of us who were born superior 'kings' were no longer as good as the students of the damn Academy of Magic! ”
He knocked the table, and the wine in the golden cup in front of him swayed, as if it would spill out at any moment: "And as far as I can see, the students in that magic academy are almost all untouchables who don't have any noble titles!" Can you all endure such insults? Let those mudbloods be above our noble bloodline! ”
Many blood-based kings were moved by him and looked a little indignant.
But Bart. Joseph was clearly not among them.
"A magician shall not be king, nor shall a king interfere with a magician. This is the most basic definition of human society since the Great Migration. Once they become magicians, they have already traveled outside of normal people, and there is no distinction between high and low. It is not advisable to draw them into the realm of untouchables by blood. ”
Bart. Joseph stood up: "No matter what you want to do, the old man will not support it." If there is nothing else, the old man will retire first. ”
After saying that, he took his entourage and swaggered away.
Quite a few also disagreed with Kahn. The king of Bharat also retired.
Originally, after the departure of the president and a large number of parliamentarians, the parliament could not be opened, but Kahn. Balart, however, looked around at the remaining members and licked his lips with some excitement.
"I'm sure you've noticed...... His Excellency Joseph has said that he will not support our actions, but he has also said that he will not oppose them. This shows that those magicians have been dancing too happily recently, and they have touched his bottom line. That's right, just like those of us who have also been touched by the bottom line. ”
"Balart, don't say such useless words again, just get to the point!" A stout, but gloomy face asked.
"--What are we going to do with those damn magicians?" (To be continued......)
