In the next few days, Xia Duo kept going back and forth between his residence and the Fourth Court of Kiran City, and even handled a few cases, of course, only disputes between ordinary people.

The Inquisition Court is subordinate to the Imperial Inquisition, and although it is called the "Court", it is actually doing a lot of things, especially at the grassroots level, and almost all the positions of the police, judges, political officials, etc.

There is no lord in Kieran City, only a nominal city lord, who is held by the head of the Inquisition Court of Kieran City, and except for a team of guards led by high-ranking mages, Kieran City is almost at the discretion of the Inquisition.

Of course, there will be a lot of restrictions on how much authority there is, and now what Xia Duo does the most is to write case files and work records, and people from the Supervision Department will come to check them from time to time.

In particular, timing positioning, that is, when the case file and record were written, whether they match the time of the incident, can be found out, not to mention, there is also a direct inspection of relevant personnel.

In addition, if there is chaos in the town, the higher authorities will also punish them.

As for the conditions for promotion, in addition to magical attainments, it is more about not making mistakes, as well as demographic indicators.

Population, probably one of the few requirements of the Arcane Empire for ordinary people and even mage apprentices, for this reason, the Empire also has a special nursery department, which specializes in issues such as childbirth and raising.

The city of Kiran also has a special nursery department, where pregnant women must be gathered together when they are found, and after giving birth, the children are taken care of by the authorities until they can speak and read, and then they enter an apprenticeship school to introduce basic magical knowledge.

After that, he transferred to the official magic academy, and if he couldn't become an official mage before the age of 20, he would be a failure, and the failure would naturally enter the people.

Either return to your parents, or start a family alone.

But in any case, these people were given the responsibility of producing for the Empire, and of course, the more they were born, the more rewards they had, from land, minions, to magical items, and even being received by the Great Sage, and the Empire went to great lengths to do so.

Therefore, when Xia Duo was just projected here, he felt that this place was even darker than the main plane, and under the appearance of a seemingly developed magical civilization, it was the sacrifice of countless ordinary people.

But at the same time, Xia Duo was also thinking about a question, that is, how feasible was his previous all-people cultivation, and the Arcane Empire of this projection plane was almost the closest to the state of all-people cultivation.

It's just that the requirements in terms of population are a bit extreme, and the ordinary people of the empire are actually educated in magic, and even many of them have become official mages on their own after the age of 20, and the empire has not rejected them.

The root of all this lies in the demon extermination war launched by the Arcane Empire, the official did not say so, it was Xia Duo who understood it this way, if it wasn't for the demon exorcism war that caused the population to decline, how could there be such an extreme population policy?

According to the official statement of the Arcane Empire, demons are the natural enemies of humans, and demons will not only lead humans to fall, but also encroach on human lands and resources.

"Fallen—" Xia Duo showed a wry smile, in fact, on the side of the Empire, he only felt the fall.

On the second day of his employment, the Nursery Office of Kiran City sent him ten women, saying that it was the obligation of the Imperial Mage, and of course Xia Duo knew that the Empire was extremely eager for the population, even if he became an official mage.

It's just that compared to ordinary people, they don't have a choice at all, mages have a certain right to choose, of course, in the same way, the more they are born, the more hidden merits they have in the system, and they will be given priority when they are promoted.

And for those ten women, in a sense, they also ask for the bad luck of continuous childbirth, as long as the relationship is still under the name of "Eddie", there will be no coercive indicators, and at the same time, they can also use the magic research environment of the trial court, if they can successfully promote to the official mage, it is simply a step to the sky, and there is almost no need to consider the problem of fertility indicators.

In fact, the fate of women in the empire was far more tragic than that of men.

Of course, men are no better, and men need to do farming, mining, and ordinary labor.

Perhaps it is more appropriate to call the ordinary people of this arcane empire slaves and fertility machines, no matter how brilliant and brilliant the civilization above it is, no matter how many helpless choices there are, it is difficult to hide its essential evil.

People are complicated, and Xia Duo didn't know what the Arcane Empire was currently facing, and he couldn't guarantee that he would not make the same decision as them when he encountered this, but as far as he saw so far, he didn't like it.

The more he learned about the Empire, the more Shado didn't want to understand, but fortunately, his goal was not to study this Arcane Empire, after all, it was a projection plane like a dream bubble.

All he really needs to do is make the most of everything here.

……

The twenty-second day of Xia Duo's employment.

On this day, he finally learned all the necessary spells of the inquisitors, [Inquiry], [Judgment], [Shock], and [Command], because he had not been exposed to psychic spells before, and this time he got it, and he was studying it almost as soon as he had free time.

The Arcane Empire has almost no barriers to learning spells, especially for those who are already mages, and if they want to learn anything, they just need to apply.

However, this permission has not been actually used by Xia Duo, and the few mind spells he is learning now are all attached to the workbook.

After research, he found that the so-called psychic spells were not strictly distinguished from creation and change spells, at least not in the system, and were still within the overall framework of the arcane magic system.

Psychic spells involve consciousness, will, and soul, all of which are intangible, so they seem much more mysterious than other spells, but as long as the principle is clarified, it is still easy to understand.

Before, Xia Duo was in the main plane, in order to advance the arcane master, he was already studying "Soul Science", which has many branches, and now there are ready-made psychic spells to cross-reference, which is like a fish in water.

In the past 20 days, Xia Duo has mainly been sorting out the principles and frameworks of mind spells, and actually learning spells, and it only took less than five days, and these spells are all 1-ring spells, which are basically not difficult.

And because from theory to practice, he has already figured out this line, and even if he doesn't have more information, he can study it on his own and improve the spell ring level, as for what level he can improve, it's another matter.

After reporting the status of the trial spell learned, Xia Duo immediately received a notice from the chief inquisitor of Kiran City that he wanted to see him, and after calling Charlie to take over, he went to the first courtroom of the trial court of Kiran City.

Kieran City's Chief Inquisitor Osk is also a high-level mage, but according to Charlie, Osk has tried to advance the Arcanist, but failed, but he hasn't given up yet, and is ready to fight again.

In the Arcane Empire, if the caster is a nobleman, then the Arcanist is a nobleman among nobles, and as long as there are conditions, normal people will not give up after a failure.

Xia Duo was still a little worried about meeting with this quasi-arcane master inquisitor, and he didn't know if the other party could see the fact that he had actually become a high-level mage.

However, in order to make it easier to apply for magic information in the future, he is not willing to hide the progress, at least there is no need to hide it in terms of psychic spells, and he has a good talent when he asks.
