Chapter 320: Reconciliation
While Alwin and the others were engaged in difficult negotiations in Solandaniel, Sawan had already turned his attention elsewhere. Although he did not personally participate in the battle with Correa this time, the entire strategy was written by him and his staff officers, and now he has some strategic planning and the bearing to win a decisive victory thousands of miles away, and he will leave everything he can to let his subordinates do as much as possible.
Now that Savan has turned his attention elsewhere, he is confident that Alvin will not let him down when it comes to Correa's negotiations, and if he can't fully achieve his desired goals, at least he won't deviate from the general direction, and he doesn't care much about the details. Now Savan's main goal is on how to return the dragons to land, it should be said that the external conditions have been met, but how to deal with the demon god Kraken Sawin feels at a loss.
Although Savin was now arguably one of the most powerful men on the continent, none of this would be useful against the trolls of the sea, and he would have to think of something else. Sawan hadn't seen the Kraken like with his own eyes, but after listening to Seren's description, Sawin thought to himself that he couldn't be the Clarken's opponent at the moment, and that he didn't even have the possibility of hurting the other party.
The former sense of powerlessness came back to his heart, and Sawin suddenly found that the career he had made in the past few years still seemed so small in the face of real power, conniving at hundreds of thousands of troops, but still helpless against an existence like Kraken. Savin thought about it, if he wanted to deal with the Kraken, he might have to resort to the Magic Guild, and only the power of magic could possibly deal with this huge monster.
Since the last time because of the incident of Thor Island, which is the original Ellul Island, Savin and Main have almost turned his face, if it weren't for the restraint of both sides, I'm afraid he would have broken with the Magic Guild. It was precisely because both sides knew that things had not yet come to that point, so although the Magic Guild cut off the funds provided to Savan, it still let those magicians stay in the Holy Cult Army.
At this time, although there are quite a few magicians left in the Holy Cult Army, they are all young and low-level magicians, which is also the meaning of the Magic Guild's intention to use the Holy Cult Army to train young people. Although these young magicians are quite numerous and very aggressive, their abilities are limited, and it is not enough to count on them to solve the Kraken's problem.
Sawan sighed secretly: "It seems that I still have to go to the Magic Guild, people are under the eaves, and I have to bow my head......"
Although Sawin said that he was determined to go to the Magic Guild with his face, he didn't plan to go directly to the door to explain his softness, which would only make the Magic Guild look down on him, in case the Magic Guild asked him to quit Thor Island, wouldn't it be a hard work in vain, and he would not do it as a result.
After walking around the house with his hands behind his back for a long time, Sawan suddenly thought of a way, since he couldn't come to the door directly, why not use the curve to save the country.
Sawan remembered that Main had said that if he had the opportunity, he would like to establish a school of magic, which would admit children who were willing to learn magic, so that magicians could be trained from an early age, and in batches.
Nowadays, magicians often recruit apprentices based on their own wishes, and occasionally meet a person who is willing to learn magic and has a talent, and the magician will find a way to bring it back to teach. Although this kind of teaching magic can be taught according to aptitude, it is too inefficient, and a magician can often only teach one or two apprentices.
In the unlikely event that a mage is obsessed with his or her own research, he often does not teach much in a year, resulting in some mage's apprentices not learning much for several years. If there is a magic school, it can train magic apprentices in batches, and it will also make the general public more aware of magic, and it will be much easier to recruit apprentices, and when they have laid the foundation, it will be much easier to follow the magicians for more advanced learning.
Main had spoken to Sawan more than once about this idea, but for various reasons he had never had the opportunity to implement it.
Sawin thought to himself that if I set up a magic school, it would be good to use this as a stepping stone to ease relations with the Magic Guild. In the past, even if he wanted to implement it, he didn't have the strength and environment, but now the situation is different, as long as he is willing not to say that it is a magic school, even if it is ten.
Having made up his mind, Sawan immediately called a few of his staff members and told them what he thought. None of the staff objected, but suggested that Sawan ask a few magicians to ask what it would take to establish a magic school, so as not to wait for the project to start and then change it, which would be a wasted effort.
Sawan listened and said yes, so he asked people to go to the Magic Guild and invite a few magicians to tell them what he thought. Several magicians heard that Sawan was willing to establish a magic school for the Magic Guild, and they all thought the idea was very novel, they all learned magic from their mentors, and if they taught magic in a school, they didn't know what the effect would be.
But since Savin proposed it, they wouldn't object, someone was willing to do something for the Magic Guild, and it was too late for them to be happy, so how could they object. However, this matter is absolutely not up to these magicians alone, and it must be approved by the high-level leaders of the Magic Guild. If the Magic Guild didn't agree, Sawan would have built the school for nothing.
Sawin invited them to ask them for advice, and on the other hand, he wanted to convey his intentions to the Magic Guild through them, and if the other party accepted his kindness, the matter of easing the relationship would have an eyebrow.
After sending off a few magicians, Sawan called in his staff in charge of finances and asked them to calculate how much money would be needed to build a school. When several staff members heard that Sawin was going to build a school, they all looked embarrassed and said boldly: "My lord, the war has just ended, and many casualties need to be appeased, and it will be ......difficult to build a school at once, and I am afraid it will be difficult for a while."
Sawin knows the truth of what they said, since the implementation of the corps system, the finances of each legion are the responsibility of each legion itself, although Savan, as the supreme commander, can directly transfer money or personnel from other legions, but it is not appropriate to do so at present, several legions have just finished fighting, everyone needs money, and he intervenes in other legions at this time, which will seriously hurt the enthusiasm of the legion commanders.
Seeing that Sawin was deep in thought, several financial staff thought that Sawin was not very happy, so someone cautiously asked, "I don't know in whose name did you build this school?"
Sawin didn't understand what he meant, so he asked, "What do you mean?
The staff member hurriedly replied, "Your Excellency doesn't understand the meaning of the humble position, I mean, if the Lord is building the school in the name of the Holy Sect Army, he can raise money from other legions, and if the Lord is building in the name of an individual, he might as well embezzle some of the funds from the Lord's territory......
"Do you mean with Haydonnes' funds?" asked Savan.
"Yes, sir. Haydonnis' funds are the private property of the Lord's domain, and do not belong to the finances of the Holy Army, so they will not add any burden to the current finances. The staff said.
After he reminded him of this, Sawin was overjoyed and said with a smile: "It turns out that Haydonis's money didn't go to the Holy Cult Army? "Savan didn't know much about finances, and he had always thought that Haydonis, Hieronis, and Pesthanes' belongings were all one, but today I heard from my staff that it was not the same thing.
"Well, then I'll write to ......" At this point Sawan paused for a moment, then changed his words and said, "Forget it, I'll go straight back to Haydonis." ”
In the blink of an eye, he hadn't been back to Haydon for almost half a year, and Sawin said that since he wanted to use the money there, he would simply build the magic school there, and he would go back to see if there was a suitable location. In addition, Sawan also plans to take a look at what his territory has become now, I don't know if the port is operational, and the other is the manufacturing of the magic musket......
At the thought of this, Savin could not sit still, he got up and walked outside the house, and commanded his Janissaries: "Come, prepare at once, I will return to Hydonnis!"
