politics, society, economy, art, agriculture. ..... It is not an exaggeration to say that knowledge in all existing areas exists, so it is not an exaggeration to say that there is an enormous amount of general books. And there were special one-off books that were considered the most valuable to adventurers.
[Circle 4 Magic Book Fire Buster: Sealed]
[Kayville's Special Cooking Recipe - Sealed]
[Secret Swordsmanship Shining Attack: Sealed]
Books with a special seal engraved on them. These books were treated as consumption items and had a special function.
[Used the 4th circle magic book Fire Buster.]
[The seal has been released.]
[The skill Fire Buster has been acquired.]
A system that allows you to acquire the skills listed in the book. Acquiring the skill did not mean that the book would disappear or disappear, but even if someone else used it, the same skill could not be acquired, so the value of its use was no different from completely disappearing.
-I want to kill all the scumbags selling unsealed magic books at the auction house.
- Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha, are there still people who fall for that kind of scam these days? black cow black cow
-Buy an unsealed skill book. Buy in bulk.
A market where only books with seals still remain are traded at high prices. However, these things were meaningless to a normal NPC who was not calibrated by such a game system.
A book is just a book.
Since the contents inside did not change or change, Jaeyoung provided Haimer with all the books stored in Cervenian's rare without any worries.
“Find and read to your heart’s content here. It probably has pretty much everything.”
“I don’t think it’s that much...?”
It's so huge that I don't even know what to read first. Even if only the magic-related things were roughly selected, the books formed a small hill that was almost tens of meters long, so Haimer just stared blankly at the scene unfolding in front of his eyes.
And soon he swallowed his saliva, picked up one of the most prominent books, and started reading. Heimer, who began to read with his nose down for a while, soon opened his mouth with round eyes.
“This can’t be...”
“Why? What did you find?”
Haimer couldn't hide his excitement. Seeing him like that, Jaeyoung asked with eyes full of anticipation, but Haimer shook his head and said.
“no. That's not it..... Because what's written here is too unconventional...”
Jaeyoung turned her eyes to the book Haimer was holding. The title of the book caught his eye.
[The basics of efficient magic circle design]
“It's a completely different way from the magic design I've been using so far. By the way... if you do it the way it's shown here, it could be at least twice... no, dozens of times higher.”
“of course. All of the books here were written by a dragon who is said to be the master of magic.”
Despite his young age, Haimer had a reputation as a genius magic engineer.
As a pioneer who knows most magic theory and knows a lot, he felt strong pride and pride. It seemed that all the learning he had cultivated throughout his life was being denied as garbage, but he did not feel despair or displeasure.
Eyes full of excitement and longing.
Haimer murmured with a flushed face at the fact that he could gain magic knowledge far beyond what humans had known until now.
“Maybe... I think I can get the answer here... No, I can get it unconditionally.”
Although it was a topic that had nothing to do with the problem he was worried about, Haimer still couldn't erase the smile from his face at the fact that he had obtained a great harvest. Jaeyoung nodded his head in confidence like his promise.
“okay. Search as much as you need, and if you think you need to experiment, tell the golden goblin. We will prepare all the necessary ingredients.”
“Is that really okay?”
Heimer is shocked when he hears that he can experiment as much as he wants. Jaeyoung said to him as if it was natural.
“then. Didn't you see the top-notch mana stones rolling around?”
Heimer felt sorry for the fact that he hadn't been able to achieve much despite spending more than 10,000 gold. But now I could see why he was so calm as if he was nothing.
“No... but... why is this so much for me...”
It's money that far transcends the common sense of Haimer, who has lived a normal, no, a little needy life so far. Haimer was hesitant at his generous behavior to the point where he wondered why he was being so good to himself, but Jaeyoung smiled and said,
“Did I make it clear last time? Strange signs are happening throughout the continent of Arcadia, centering on the Gael Federation.”
“Are you referring to the war you were talking about then?”
A terrible prophecy that the entire peaceful Gael Federation would perish in the fiery furnace of war. He didn't completely believe it, but Jaeyoung spoke so confidently that Haimer swallowed his saliva nervously.
“that's right. That war will surely happen. And that war can only be stopped by you. With the theory you were working on.”
“Really...?”
“that's right.”
The Gael Federation, the home of Haimer who has lived his entire life and his heart.
No matter how much he was kicked out of the Mechanium, his affection didn't completely disappear, so Haimer's face repeated the complex blooming and disappearing of various indescribable emotions. And soon, as if he was prepared for something, he looked at Jaeyoung with a determined expression and said.
“all right. I will definitely complete the theory no matter what. And... through it, I will protect the Gael Federation with my own hands. Even if it means sacrificing your life.”
Haimer aggressively buries his face in the book, firmly determined to protect the Gael Federation. Tan flew to Jaeyoung, who looked at him happily, and asked.
“No sir. If you want to stop a war, you can just go there and wipe it all out.”
Tan frowns and grumbles as if he doesn't know why he keeps complicating things in strange and bizarre ways. He was expecting a scene of chaos and destruction where he would run right away and wipe out everything, so it was disappointing to end up in a dragon rare and waste his time.
“And why do you keep pretending to be kind instead of being like a master? Just threaten to kill you if you don't. Why are you being so cheesy?”
I don't like Tan, who keeps pretending to be a damn chicken kid even though he has very good negotiating means of violence and intimidation. He was heartbroken to see Jaeyoung, whom he saw as a rare crystal of evil, keep going astray, but he soon perked up his ears at Jaeyoung's words.
“Even if it cringes, it’s because this method is the most effective.”
“Effective?”
Tan, who has never experienced a method as effective as violence. From the few guys who always seemed sloppy and rebellious, once they were killed as examples, they were people who trembled and listened well, so the rider on Jae-young's horse tilted his head.
“It’s called gaslighting.”
“Gaslighting? what is that? Are you vicious again that I don't know about?”
Tan's eyes lit up when he heard the words for the first time, and before he knew it, he took out a black scroll and prepared to write down notes. Seeing him like that, Jaeyoung let out a sigh with an expression of absurdity in his eyes.
“Haa... no. Don't do anything stupid again and just watch it. You can see how things work out.”
“ah! Where is that, Master! You have to finish what you said.”
Tan clings to his hair and makes a fuss asking him to pass on another vicious honey tip. The moment L looked at him with disgust and contempt. Far away from the continent, serious discussions were going on in the imperial court of the Shōen Empire.
“The Faros Empire said they would accept our offer... is that what you mean?”
“Yes, Your Majesty the Emperor. This is a personal letter from the emperor of the Faros Empire.”
A personal letter given back by a delegation sent to the Faros Empire. After confirming the content, the Emperor of the Shouen Empire muttered with his eyes wide open.
“Hmm... not a bad suggestion.”
“It seems that the Faros Empire is in a hurry. Because there is no new continent to be conquered in the south of the continent.”
In the process of being newly integrated into one continent, the Faros Empire was unfortunately located on the outskirts. That's why they were facing the endless sea that stretched far from the coast as before, so the proposal of the Shoen Empire was rather welcome to them.
“Besides, I think I heard a rumor somewhere that a huge amount of mana stones are being produced in the Gael Federation. On our continent, the Faros Empire occupied most of the mana stone mines, and I was concerned that our empire might occupy a new mana stone mine.”
A mana stone with enormous economic influence.
It was a strategic resource that was so valuable that it could be considered one of the reasons why the Ferros kingdom was able to grow into an empire, so they had no intention of leaving the Shoen Empire alone.
“We match the level of troops and war supplies to the level we put in, but give priority to our Shoen Empire in the distribution of occupied territories, and divide strategic resources in a 5:5 ratio. Also, let's conclude a marriage between the imperial families with a non-aggression pact for the next 100 years
. Even if you try to exercise control anyway, if our empire doesn't open the way, it's useless.”
Situated in the northern part of the continent, the Shōen Empire completely dominates the routes to other continents. So, whether they like it or not, there was no way for the Faros Empire to advance to other continents unless they cooperated with each other.
“It seems like a good suggestion.”
“Do you think so too?”
“That's right. If there is a war anyway, wouldn't it be better to have allies than to have enemies who are after us?”
Although it is a little behind the Shouen Empire, the Perus Empire, the loser of another continent that can never be ignored. Without a guarantee that they would not strike the back of the head, he would not dare to launch a large-scale war, so the emperor tapped the seat of power with his fingers, deep in thought.
“If you ask for a marriage, who is the target in the Faros Empire?”
“The second prince of the Faros Empire is said to be of the right age.”
“Then we can send Ariel.”
Regardless of their intentions, the emperor immediately decided in his head who to marry, and soon gave an order.
“Send an envoy to the Faros Empire immediately. I will gladly accept the offer.”
“All right!”
The Shōen Empire decided to go to war. The matter was decided because even after knowing that there was an enormous mana stone production area right in front of us, we couldn't just sit back and watch it. With the scenario that started to run so complicated, a message appeared in front of Jaeyoung's eyes.
