Chapter 20: History
In the captain's room, Rosa pondered for a moment, and spoke to Victor.
"Let's start with the destruction of the Arcane Empire's 'Netheriel'......"
"The last Emperor of the Empire, Kalris, was an ambitious and powerful mage, and under his leadership, the Arcane Empire has transcended the boundaries between mortals and gods!"
"But it is precisely because of the ambition of Claris that the super magic 'Avatar of Kalris' created by him caused the collapse of the magic net, which in turn caused the chaos of the magic element......"
"It's a real apocalypse!"
Rosa sighed, "Since then, the glorious Arcane Empire has fallen!" The gods have also lost contact with the continent of Wallsted......"
"After the gods are gone, the Temple of Eternity has sprung up!"
"Under the leadership of the first Pope, the Eternal Temple launched the 'War of Religion', and they eliminated dissidents with absolute strength, almost sweeping the entire Vorsted continent!"
“……”
"It is against this backdrop that the 'Silver Scholars', an academic organization founded by the remnants of the Arcane Empire, has come to the fore!"
"During the 'Wars of Religion' 1,500 years ago, in order to fight against the powerful Eternal Temple, the head of the 'Silver Scholars', the founder of the Magical Society, and the legendary mage Melon, had the foresight to unite the organization established by the Noble Lich 'All Things Are One', the remnant alchemy institution 'Alchemy Hand', the sacred place of faith of the children of the forest 'Wrath of Nature', the 'Tower' of the Wizard Forces of the Northlands, and some other small spellcaster organizations, to form a super-large loose alliance, which is what we now call In the true sense of the word, the 'Continental Magical Knowledge Promotion Society'. ”
"As an independent organization, the Continental Society for the Promotion of Magical Knowledge is not formally accountable to any governing body...... But it has an unusually close relationship with the various nations on the continent of Vorsted that are dissatisfied with the Eternal Temple......"
“…… In addition to the study of arcane, the Society of Magic also organizes and compiles various academic materials; selection of outstanding spell-casting talents; rewarding and facilitating various academic exchanges; Organize and promote the education of spellcasters and the popularization of spells......"
"In order to maintain the normal functioning of the organization, all affairs of the Magical Society are handled by the Council...... The Board of Directors consists of 21 members and is led by five of them. In addition to the president of the Magical Society, the legendary mage Ainste, the other four executive council members (vice presidents) can only serve as board members who have made significant contributions to the organization...... No member of the Board of Directors shall serve for more than five consecutive years, and 16 members of the Board of Directors shall be re-elected at the annual meeting held at the end of each year......"
Speaking of this, Rosa breathed a sigh of relief slightly, and then continued: "Under the modern magic system, the level of mages continues to be the rule of the Magic Age...... However, due to Lord Einstead's pioneering redefinition of the concept of 'Arcane', the honorary title of 'Arcanist' has become more and more valued by spellcasters! ”
"If a spellcaster wants to increase his Honor Level (i.e., Arcane Level), he must have enough Arcane Points! Arcane points can only be obtained by publishing various research papers, creating or improving magic, proposing research results that can stand the test of practice, and other important discoveries......"
"A mage who walks on the path of truth, wisdom comes first, and strength comes second!"
"Due to the Academy's emphasis on arcane, a high-level arcanist has a much higher status than a mage of the same level...... So, if you come across a spellcaster in Greenland with a very high arcane level and a very low mage level, don't be too surprised! ”
Victor listened with relish, and according to his understanding, the status of arcane was equivalent to the status of science and technology in his previous life......
"Science and technology are the primary productive forces!"
Therefore, Victor is very much in favor of the Magical Society's approach!
Rosa also has a great respect for the Arcane, and he proudly said to Victor, "At present, there are five Grand Arcanists (the highest level of the Arcane) in the entire Magical Society, and they are ......"
"His Excellency Grant Einstead, the founder of the modern magical system, the founder of the 'Three Laws of Movement', the President of the Magical Society, and the 'Legend Master'."
"The revivalist of astrology, the founder of the 'heliocentric doctrine', the vice-president of the Magical Society, and the 'eye of the stars' His Excellency Felton Antonia."
"The perfecter of the Plastic Magic, the predictor of the 'New Elemental System', the Vice President of the Magical Society, and the Lady Winnie Murphy of the 'Elemental Master', and she is the only woman to hold the title of Grand Arcanist."
"The improver of alchemy, the proposer of the 'methodology', the vice-president of the Society of Magic, the 'equivalent exchange' of His Excellency Valentin Brooke."
"His Excellency Dick Lipard, an expander of necromantic magic, discoverer of the 'microcosm', vice-president of the Magical Society, and 'Sleeper' Mentor."
Looking at Victor, who was 'shocked', Rosa said with emotion: "In the past hundred years, the Magical Society has made countless advances in the arcane field! However, with the further development of arcane research, the new achievements explored by the various organizations affiliated with the Magical Society in the academic and cognitive fields have produced great differences, leading to opposing 'polemics' between various policies, and this has further deepened and intensified the contradictions within the Society......"
"If we can't find subversive theories to organically unite these contradictory views, if we can't re-establish a strong iron-fisted mechanism to suppress those organizations that are ready to move, the division of the Magical Society...... Maybe inevitably! ”
"It is all the more regrettable that most people turn a blind eye to this potential crisis...... Those people of insight are lonely and can't scream!! ”
Rosa sighed and was silent for a moment.
"It's not early, Victor, you should go back early and rest! We expect to arrive in Greenland the day after tomorrow......"
Victor nodded and said goodbye politely, "Lord Rosa, thank you for your explanation. ”
Before leaving the door, Victor said hesitantly, "My lord, perhaps...... Things haven't gotten to an irreparable ......"
