“Did you just call it a regeneration church?”
“Yes, Mama.”
When I mentioned them, a group unfamiliar to the kingdom, the queen’s slightly surprised eyes stuck to me.
“These are the things we found out through investigations after the outbreak of the war.”
“Where did you do your research?”
“I searched the mansion and found it.”
“That’s a lie, information about the Resurrection Church is only in the first-class reading room.”
I was a little surprised by the queen’s firm answer, but answered with a calm smile.
“Well, there must be some secrets that even this mother cannot reveal.”
Adequately convinced, the queen hardened her expression slightly and continued.
“It is true that the Resurrection Church has expanded its activities to the Sigvarda continent in the last five years.”
They were a religious group that worshiped an evil spirit that brought the world to the brink of destruction a long time ago.
The Resurrection Church worshiped evil spirits, but coveted their power.
To that end, he did all sorts of out-of-the-ordinary things.
“What kind of group do you know about the Resurrection Church?”
“… … They do crazy things for the sake of resurrecting evil spirits. They are a group of fanatics who do not regret their lives.”
“There is a strange sense of reality… … Well, that’s an accurate expression.”
The Resurrection Church had been treated as public by all families, including Ronberg.
They killed innocent civilians while preparing sacrifices, or moved secretly to separate families from each other.
I was the one who directly confronted and punished them on the front line.
“I heard that one of the methods they used was to pollute the land.”
It was to induce trouble by playing tricks in places where disputes might arise.
In the past, he had seen with his own eyes that war was induced in a similar way, so it was certain.
“Yeah, that’s right. So you made that analogy just by looking at the contamination of the Matu land?”
“This is what the contracted spirit told me. I have seen this kind of soil contamination on the Feyer continent.”
“I guess they intended to plant the seed of discord in the Matu tribe, doubting the Kangma tribe and the kingdom.”
“you’re right.”
After thinking about this for a while, the queen nodded as if it made sense.
“I have no intention of touching it yet for a one-hit strike.”
It was because of the nature of the Regeneration Church that it hides deeper if touched hastily.
I also took that into account and asked the Matu to pretend not to know.
“Please allow me to read information related to the Resurrection Church, Mama.”
“Did you make a pact with the Matu to catch the culprit behind the scenes?”
“There is that, but if we leave them alone, they will one day become a big problem for the kingdom.”
It was sincere.
Apart from the promise with the Matu, if we leave these guys as they are, it will have a negative impact on our internal stability.
“I promise not to act rashly until I am sure that I can defeat the Saengsaengyo.”
“If your judgment fails in one hit, you will be held accountable.”
This was a kind of warning and advice.
Everyone doesn’t know because the agenda for the revival church hasn’t been properly discussed yet.
In the future, if they come to the surface, discussions on disposal will follow.
It meant that if I missed them due to my poor judgment, I would not be able to escape the responsibility.
Conversely, if I do it successfully, it will be another achievement of mine.
“Of course I know. I know the importance of the matter, so I will be careful.”
“good night. I will allow you to read the materials about the Hoesang Church in the first-class reading room.”
“Thank you, Mama.”
Now that the business is over, I’m in the middle of bowing with respect.
The queen smiled slightly and called me.
“Crus.”
“Yes, Mama.”
“I really struggled with this one.”
“… … Let’s go back, Mama.”
* * *
The plan I announced at the palace spread quickly.
It seems that they are dealing with the news noisily in various places including the royal capital.
The aftermath was evident in the Rostein estate.
“Oh oh… … ! You’ve grown up, dear Cruz.”
“This is Viscount Iromi, whom I saw on the day you first measured your mana.”
“Nice to meet you all, I am so grateful that you personally came and brightened up the celebration.”
As soon as the news was announced, Duke Leon prepared a grand banquet.
It was to attract attention so that annoying checks would not come in, and to solidify the power.
It is self-evident that it is a money-making business, so there were things that people had no choice but to flock to.
“You did a good job as I said, Mir San Sangju. It made the job easier.”
“I’m glad I was helpful, sir.”
“Thank you from the bottom of my heart for giving me such a good opportunity, my dear.”
“I will never forget this favor of the day.”
The top lords I met on the day I rode the carriage in Drude Hills were also a big help this time.
Not only Hamgu-ryeong, but also the detailed evidence of the Gangma Tribe’s misdeeds.
In addition, as soon as the road construction project was announced, they rushed in and volunteered for financial support.
It was also a calculated act to preoccupy the interests.
If someone has to benefit anyway, it would be better for someone who has a relationship with me to see it.
If I maintain a good relationship with them, they will be my source of funds in times of need.
“Yes, please take good care of me in the future.”
For three days, he spent time greeting those who came to the manor.
Not to mention those who see flood damage from this construction.
Influential people who didn’t follow Morgan came constantly.
Some of them tried to impress me, but most of them were to directly grasp the current situation.
“You worked hard, my dear.”
After the banquet on the third day, Duke Leon greeted him politely.
“What is the hardship, the duke must have put in a lot of hard work. We held a banquet of this size.”
“It’s just a natural thing to do for the future.”
“Did your talk with the Marquis of Brisman go well?”
“of course. The Marquis made the guests who came to the banquet surprised by the compliments of the lowly.”
Although there is a difference in the title, it was an honorific title due to the influence or achievements accumulated over a long period of time.
“I really want to hear that with my own ears. It’s hard to imagine when I think of my first meeting with the Marquis.”
“He said something like that. During our conversation, I felt the majesty of my youth.”
“… … Was it?”
“Yeah, so he said that he inadvertently burst into laughter during their first meeting.”
Come to think of it, I remember bursting into laughter out of nowhere.
“Oops, I guess I was a little drunk. Your mouth is lighter than usual.”
“Go and rest, I will go in soon and rest.”
“Then I’ll see you tomorrow, my lord.”
After exchanging greetings like that, while I was taking a breather, Alan came to visit me.
It’s been three days since I arrived here, but I haven’t been able to face it properly because I’ve been meeting customers.
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen it, so I felt a strange welcome.
“Your face is red, my dear.”
“okay? I wasn’t that drunk.”
“Would you like some chocolate?”
[Take it. It must be delicious since he gives it.]
“… … Yes, give me one.”
After accepting and eating the chocolate Alan gave her, Skadi savored the taste as if satisfied.
“Isn’t there an overlapping technique that you taught me the other day? That’s me now.”
“okay? I don’t think it’s 5-star yet, but have you already succeeded?”
“It worked when I did it. Although it looks like it will reach 5 stars soon.”
I reacted calmly, but inside I was quite surprised.
It was because I thought it would be possible to reach 5 stars at the earliest.
He’s definitely a gifted guy.
“Train hard, so you don’t catch up with me.”
“Still, there is quite a difference in level, but it won’t be easy to catch up.”
Ajak.
Alan took a bite of the candy and continued.
“Actually, when my father announced his support for the lower house to the family, there was a big backlash.”
“I guess so.”
It wasn’t to the level of going over saying, “I guess so.” It’s the first time I’ve ever seen such fierce opposition.”
Alan handed me the candy he ate and continued.
“However, the atmosphere has changed since you succeeded in this task. Even those who opposed it lavished praise on it.”
“Considering my past, it makes sense.”
I didn’t feel any emotions about it.
Since my visit, everyone has been polite and treated me extremely.
Today, the last day of the banquet, most of the people I dealt with were members of the Rothstein family.
“And I decided not to go to Hasla.”
“Come to think of it, I haven’t been there yet. Well, I don’t even need to go now.”
“From now on, I will be busy with family matters. And the investigation of the blueprints that came out of the cube the other day seems to take a little longer.”
“Duke Leon told me that it would take some time because he couldn’t decipher the text.”
“Yes, it’s a top-secret investigation, so there aren’t many people.”
As if he had finished his business, Alan got up from his seat and stood up.
“Then let’s go. Rest in peace too.”
“Okay, go in.”
After saying that, after parting with Alan, I went to my room and went to sleep.
Then, after dawn, they headed for the central mage tower with Phrexia and a group of Matu tribes.
It was to use the express certificate I received earlier.
‘They said I could use all the facilities in the central mage tower.’
I was thinking of taking a look at the sorcery books that are important in the Mage Tower.
From a 4-star body, applied magic beyond the basics can be used without difficulty, and it was also a conscious decision.
[Is it really necessary? Your battle method must have already been completed.]
‘That’s true, but there’s nothing bad about having a lot of cards.’
This is also a story that is established at the age of experiencing a previous life.
Usually, it was more important to skillfully use a few magics than to use multiple magics vaguely.
However, I have already raised the proficiency of my main magic sufficiently.
So there was no problem adding something new.
‘There’s something to look forward to. Wouldn’t the kingdom be inferior to Ronberg in all magic?’
What made the Ronberg family special was attribute magic.
Of course, attribute magic was also classified in detail within it, but the overall level was high.
‘Because the Ronberg family cut what they thought was unnecessary.’
As a result, the level of other magics that were less effective in combat than attribute magic was on the lower side.
“Has Phlexia been to the Central Mage Tower twice?”
“Yes, lower. Once in the eastern tower and twice in the center. I have never been to the South.”
Frexia, who was always interested in the kingdom’s magic, said that whenever she visited the capital, she stopped by the Mage Tower whenever possible.
Although going to the Mage Tower with Praxia is partly because of her interest.
It was also to publicize the relationship between me and the Matu people.
When they arrived near the central mage tower, Phrexia opened her mouth in admiration.
“The magic tower is still high.”
“That’s right, it’s the only building that can be built higher than the royal palace.”
While he was about to enter naturally, the Matu warriors standing tall, unlike the Phrexia, came into sight.
“Aren’t you coming?”
“Yes, lower. We can’t go in.”
“Why?”
“It’s because of the Mage Tower’s rule that bans more than two foreign people from entering.”
“What is that? Don’t worry, come in.”
“… … yes?”
As I forcibly dragged the Praxia and Matu warriors, who looked bewildered, I saw the entrance.
There was an apprentice wizard there, but when he saw me, he greeted me proudly.
“Welcome, poor Cruz.”
“Okay, can I go inside?”
“of course. however… … .”
The apprentice wizard stared at the Matu tribe with somewhat troubled eyes.
“There is a rule that no more than two immigrants can enter.”
“Why?”
“In the past, some immigrants had riots inside, and it was difficult to suppress them, so this rule came about.”
“In case something goes wrong, I will take care of it, so let me in.”
“Ha, but… … .”
“Tell the tower owner, it will be resolved.”
“… … All right.”
While the apprentice wizard was away seeking permission.
The faces of Praxia and the warriors were full of doubts.
He seems to know that the Mage Tower is a place where even the royal family prioritizes rules and does not give in to power.
After that, I waited silently for about 5 minutes.
A woman in a red robe, Hella Ishche, strode forward.
“Welcome, low. And the Matu people.”
“Okay, can I come in?”
“of course. Everyone come in.”
“… … !”
Phrexia and the warriors looked at me in amazement at Hela’s kind hospitality.
