Chapter Seventy-Three: Byron's Worries
Seeing that the two of them were about to fight again, Leo hurriedly interrupted, "Teacher, what are your plans next?"
Byron glared at Chris viciously, let the other party go for the time being, and replied, "I read the letter that Robert left here that says that many elementary magic academies have been built in various places recently. This is a good thing, but it is estimated that such a situation will also have a big impact on the family, so I still want to go back and see it first. Although I am old, there should not be much problem in teaching children, and it can be regarded as a final exertion of some residual heat. ”
At this time, John, who had never spoken much, said: "By the way, not long ago, the junior magic academy in Cape Dorne also began to recruit students, which is said to attract many families to bring their children to interviews. ”
"This junior magic academy is run by the Magician's Council?" asked Chris.
John had some understanding of this, and replied, "It is said that it was promoted by Her Royal Highness Princess Alice, and the Imperial Government and the Magire Council jointly promoted it. It has been piloted in the Ruhr area for several years and has worked well, so it is only now being rolled out. ”
Hearing him say this, Byron and Chris glanced at each other, but instead of arguing, they showed concern.
Chris asked, "John, has Bishop Stirling done anything about this?"
John shook his head and said, "The bishop can't decide what to do, he has always wanted to hear your opinion, but unfortunately, he only left for the archsicumber the day before yesterday to report on his duties, and you came back yesterday." ”
Watching them talk about this, Sanders was dazed, obviously not quite understanding the meaning, but Leo was very aware of the possible disputes and dangers involved.
No matter where you are, as long as there are people, then people are the most important resource. The analogy may be unforgiving, but it is true.
Magic wants to develop, in addition to the exploration and sacrifice of the former. It is also necessary to constantly get new blood. The more people who learn about magic and devote themselves to research, the more likely it is that it will advance the development of magic, which is the most basic trend and cannot be changed.
In the same way, if God wants to improve his divine power, in addition to mastering his own core rules, the number of believers, especially the number of virtual believers, is crucial. And as God shepherds the believers
The importance of the clergy can be imagined. The more clergy a church has. The greater its own power, the more believers it will be able to attract and control the wider the scope of faith.
Whether you want to learn magic or join the priesthood, there are strict requirements for a person's mental power. Such people tend to make up a very small percentage of the overall population.
Now that the primary magic academies have begun to spread widely, it is only natural that those civilians who might have turned to the church will be more inclined to the lower magic academies of the Men Olan. As a result, the Magire Society and the Church of the Gods are bound to come into conflict.
And in the Gallant Empire. The government and the royal family have always regarded themselves as the leaders and neutrals of the bloodline nobility, and basically do not favor either side, but now the princess has stepped forward to launch the junior magic academy, and this behavior sends a signal. It goes without saying.
As a mage, Byron instinctively hoped that this would happen, and that magic would flourish. But as an old man who has experienced a lot of things, he feels very worried. Change. In many cases, it does not represent hope, on the contrary, it is often the trigger for bloody conflict.
If it is really because of this incident, the relationship between the mages and the Church of the Gods has intensified. God knows if it will be another terrible era.
Although Byron has not experienced it personally, the information revealed from those books still makes people feel shocked and creepy.
After thinking about it carefully, but still unable to find a clue, Byron decided not to expend the little energy he had left.
He is just an old and weak intermediate mage, this kind of big matter that affects tens of millions of people, but it is not his turn to worry about it, maybe the royal family has already made full preparations to ensure that there will be no chaos.
Similarly, Chris didn't want to continue to bother with this matter, so he changed the subject and said, "Leo, do you have any goals for participating in Lordaeron's tournament this time?"
Without waiting for Leo to answer, Byron preemptively said: "Don't ask this kind of question before the game, and don't add pressure to the child." Leo, being able to participate in the competition is an honor in itself, don't be too reluctant, just do it without regrets. ”
"I understand, teacher, thank you. Leo hurriedly nodded in response.
At this time, a melodious bell rang and came to an abrupt halt after ringing five times.
Sanders suddenly reacted and said in a low voice, "Leo, it's already five o'clock, shouldn't we go back?"
Although the Byron people were old, their ears were still very good, so they could clearly hear Sanders's whispering, so they hurriedly asked, "When are you leaving?"
"I'll leave tomorrow. Sanders replied.
Byron raised his hand to stop Leo, who wanted to speak, and said: "Then go back quickly, it's not so easy to take a long-distance boat, go back and rest well, and compete in the best condition." ”
After a pause, he continued: "Leo, if there is anything, we will talk about it when you return to the family from vacation, the matter of the game is the most important thing now, don't be distracted and think about other things." Don't worry, I'm going to be able to survive this old life for a while, right, old thing?"
Chris was stunned for a moment, then reacted, and laughed: "That's right, that's right, you old bastard is so annoying, the Grim Reaper doesn't bother to take you in, and he won't let you die easily." ”
Leo still didn't understand, this was the two old men who wanted to relax themselves. Fortunately, from now on, the teacher's situation is indeed not bad, which also reassures him a lot. And I really should put all my attention on the Lordaeron tournament.
Although the teacher said that there should be no pressure, since you have already participated in the competition, you must always have some goals, and if you can get good results, the teacher will definitely be happier.
With this in mind, Leo did not say anything more, but simply said goodbye, and agreed with Byron that he would return to Joseph's castle during the winter holidays, and then left the parlor.
It was not appropriate for the two elders to send off the guests, so the task fell to John.
And in the previous conversation, John couldn't interject at all, and when he saw Leo and Sanders, he held the words he wanted to say in his throat, and at this moment, he finally got the opportunity, where would he let it go. (To be continued.) )
