Chapter 1: A New Beginning (2)

Thing-

With the sound of the elevator arriving, Jamie got out of it.

The 73rd floor of the central magic tower of the magical world.

Just two floors down from the top floor was Jamie's private office.

Jamie, who looked at the panoramic view of the magical world through the glass, headed to the office with a dry face.

When I first saw it, the scenery was so good that my mouth was open, but after looking at it for 5 years, I didn't think much of it.

Since the entire 73rd floor was Jamie's private space, only the sound of footsteps echoed quietly.

When he opened the door through fingerprint recognition and went inside, a familiar face greeted him.

"Good morning, three elders."

"Good morning to Hera."

A woman named Hera was Jamie's exclusive secretary and was a 4th class wizard. An elder in the magical world could only hire a 4th class or higher wizard as a secretary.

This was because he would have the ability to match the elder to a certain extent.

"What about the boys?"

"The disciples have not come yet."

"These children are gone. When the teacher arrives, you have to run barefoot and say hello first."

Very mentally rotten.

I've been loosening up a bit these days.

It was because the guys were also standing in the realm of enlightenment.

Even so, you must be prepared to come and meet the master before he arrives!

Jamie later vowed to do some very rigorous mental training.

His brilliance has not yet died.

"Did you have any other issues?"

"I'll go inside and tell you."

Jamie entered the office and immediately sat down and listened to Hera's report.

"I have some great news."

"Big news?"

Yeah. I have sent a request for support to the Kingdom of Seldam from the Kingdom of Harmonia on the ; Arisha continent."

The Kingdom of Harmonia.

It was a country where the people, who could not stand the extreme corruption, formed the liberation army and tried to overthrow the current dynasty.

Jamie knew that Frontier was supporting the liberation forces there.

"What kind of support request was it?"

"I would like you to dispatch the Master of Seldam."

"It seems that it has crossed over to the realm of magic."

Yeah. Apparently, the non-mage masters are watching the ; Kariren side... ."

Eastern Continent ; Kariren .

It was originally the sphere of influence of the Zenith Church, but it is no exaggeration to say that it is now the headquarters of the Zenith Church.

I don't know what they did, but the current northern ; Olvia and the eastern ; Kariren had a relationship like a supporter.

As a result, small-scale battles were taking place regularly, and tensions that would not be strange if a large war broke out were revolving around.

So, most of the sword masters were waiting there, and Count Wellton was going to the castle today for that matter.

In the magical world, the only 7 elder Siegfried had left.

"In such a state, the request seems to have been passed on to Archmage who can afford it."

"By the way, the story that His Majesty did not reject this and turned it this way ."

Yeah. As you might expect, Harmonia has offered a reward that is difficult to refuse. I was contacted to discuss this in earnest at an upcoming elders meeting."

Okay. You worked hard to deliver."

"It's something I have to do."

When Hera answered with a smile, Jamie smiled and got up from her seat.

"Then shall we go first?"

"That's right."

The two walked to the top floor where the elders meeting was held.

* * *

"Hey."

"There are a lot of elders who are absent, so there is nothing we can do about it."

"If one more person is left out of this, it would be really embarrassing."

The three wizards, seated at regular intervals in the conference room, had been chatting since early morning.

The second elder, Linmer, rolled the pen and said.

"Still, the return of the first elder is not long ago."

The first elder, Offen Ginger, has not been out since she hid after an incident five years ago.

However, a few days ago, I sent a letter saying that he would come back soon.

"Adele will also be leaving the closure soon."

The 6th elder Adelhard also suddenly attained enlightenment two months ago, and was currently in a closed state to break the wall of the 7th class.

I was not sure when it would come out, but the other elders expected sooner or later.

"Elder 8, I have been away from work for a while, so I will be back soon ."

It is known that something unpleasant has happened in Regen, the estate of 8 Elder Simon.

As an elder and a powerful lord at the same time, he will probably return to the magical realm at the earliest.

"It will be crowded soon."

"Even now, only one person comes up."

The three of them looked at the conference room door, feeling their presence.

Soon the door opened, revealing a familiar yet welcoming face.

It was Jamie Welton.

"Are you all here early?"

"Because old people don't sleep at night."

"I am not old yet."

At Rayman's joke, Luke denied it with a shriveled face.

"If you are now fifty, you are old."

right. You must not try to deny that you are old."

"Wow."

Rinmer and Rayman's pincers made Luke's muffled sound.

Jamie grinned as she watched the three of them having a frivolous conversation since morning.

But without waiting any longer, he brought up the main topic right away.

"You said you've been requesting a Master from Harmonia?"

"It is. Things are looking pretty bad."

"It seems that the Liberation Army quickly pushed out the Kingdom Army and occupied half of the territory."

"So which one of these will go?"

At Luke's straight-forward question, the elders looked at each other.

In a situation where King Friedmoor had already accepted Harmonia's request, the dispatch was certain.

There are only four Masters left here.

However, the 2nd and 4th elders were in charge of the core of the magic world, so it was difficult to leave their seats.

The same goes for the 5th Elder Luke.

Now that Adelhardt, the deputy head of Equality, was away, it was difficult for even the head of the company to leave.

Then there is only one left.

" Am I the only one?"

"Isn't it time to start activities soon?"

As Linmer spoke with a serious face, Jamie's face turned a little worried.

As he said, for five years, he only focused on training, so he did not engage in external activities once after the master was appointed.

However, it has not yet reached its goal.

'But it is also true that it is an area that is difficult to reach through training alone.'

Meanwhile, there was an opportunity to be dispatched to the battlefield.

In addition, I knew that the current Harmonia Liberation Army was sponsored by the Frontier side.

I don't know what your intentions are to join in poking around other people's countries, but hopefully I may be able to get in touch with them.

Jamie, who made a quick decision, answered.

I will do it.

"Thought well."

"But I have a question."

"What?"

"Harmonia has been in trouble with the Liberation Army for five years, so why are you sending a dispatch request now?"

Although Harmonia was a small country in the western ; Arisha , it had four master classes.

So, even if the size of the Liberation Army was large, it was possible to block it with ease.

However, it was not understood by Jamie to reach out to other countries, and even to powerful powers on other continents.

Raymon explained that part.

"I heard that the Kingdom's Sword Master was hit."

Jamie's expression distorted slightly when he heard that the Sword Master had been beaten.

No matter how small a country's sword master was, the Liberation Army would have to suffer a lot of damage to catch the monster that reached the superhuman realm.

However, if that had happened, Harmonia would not have had to send a request for support.

The power of the Liberation Army would have been greatly reduced as much as the Master had been lost.

But the answer I got was unexpected.

"I heard that the Liberation Army also had a Sword Master. The problem is that the Sword Master of the Liberation Army won unilaterally. The opponent was a knight of the king."

"If it's a knight of the King of Harmonia Sir Cyril?"

"It will be right."

King's Knight Kirill Owent.

He was a skilled sword master to the extent that it was not worth it for a country like Harmonia to possess.

How did such a talented person lose unilaterally?

This would have given Harmonia a great shock and horror. At that moment, he seemed to understand why he had requested assistance from the Kingdom of Seldam.

It was because there were no Masters higher than Kirill Owent in the same Western Continent.

'It's a frontier.'

There was no way that the Liberation Army had a Master of that level.

In the sense that it suddenly appeared and sank the King's Knight, Jamie was convinced that it was a master class sent by the Frontiers.

Aside from that, Jamie thought Harmonia was cheeky.

"You don't want to sacrifice your Master any more, so you asked us to dispatch them."

"They are cheeky things."

"But there is no reason for us to respond, so why did His Majesty allow the dispatch?"

"He said he would hand over the national treasure."

"If it is Harmonia's national treasure ."

"The Music Box of the Morning Star."

Although Harmonia is now corrupted from the king to the official, it was originally a country with so much fundamentals that it could be counted amongst all the continents.

Among them, 'Morning Star Music Box' is an object related to the myth of the founding of Harmonia, and it was a device that a new universe would appear in the sky when the performance started.

Other effects have not been revealed, but it was a treasure coveted by many wizards in that it was associated with the founding myth and had great magical value.

"It seems they are desperate enough to pass over such a great national treasure."

"They are funny. It's like those who rot and ruin people's livelihoods are struggling to survive somehow... It's really no-brainer."

Luke grumbled with a very dissatisfied face.

Because he was aiming for class equality, Harmonia was a country that had to be destroyed for him.

Jamie agreed to some extent with that.

Aside from the precious rewards, Harmonia was actually a country that should have disappeared.

It is also true that the reality of having to help is somewhat reluctant.

After reading Jamie's expression, Linmer smiled and said.

"Actually, this is where the full-fledged mission begins."

" Suddenly?"

"Harmonia's rewards are quite coveted, but we're not at a level where we are barely swayed by other people's national treasures."

Seldam is the hegemony of the northern ; Olvia .

You can just ignore the proposals of a small country like Harmonia.

As for what that means... .

"Even if we are dispatched to Harmonia for now, we don't necessarily need to help Harmonia."

"That means ."

"It is His Majesty's motto that the three elders should see the situation of the country with their own eyes and do whatever they want."

In other words, it was said that he would entrust the person who was dispatched with enormous authority that depended on the existence of a country.

Simply put, it meant that Jamie could ignore Harmonia's request and do whatever she wanted if she wanted to.

This would be a serious trade violation, but the Kingdom of Seldam is a superpower that does not have to pay attention to countries like Harmonia.

The king himself admitted that he did not have to worry about such a deal.

"What benefits do we get from that?"

"Take it easy, three elders."

Raymon, who had stood still, smiled and spoke, and Jamie immediately knew what King Friedmoor wanted.

"If you help Harmonia, you can make them into debt because you helped stabilize their situation, and if you help the Liberation Army, you are helping to establish a new kingship It could also put you in debt."

The Seldam Kingdom had no choice but to benefit unconditionally.

If that's not the case, but if Jamie is to be hit on the battlefield, it will also be a great cause for the Seldam Kingdom to intervene.

So ."

Jamie said with a smile.

"It's okay to come with a gab, right?"

I had a feeling that it would be a pretty enjoyable dispatch mission.
