Reincarnated as incubus: I didn't mean to seduce you!

Chapter 328 - 164 Kael: I’m still used to talking with the elegant older sister (10K, 54/76)

Elanna nodded and said with a smile, "It seems that the new laws you spoke of, Kael, have caught the attention of the Royal Court, even the Royal Court Nobles Council and the Caesar Governor are paying attention to it."

Kael stood up and poured a cup of tea for Elanna, saying, "As you know, the Royal Court has been sending personnel over here during this period, on the one hand to maintain the regular relationship between the Federation Royal Court and the various Duchies.

On the other hand, they also want to see if there are any troubles recently in the lower Duchies that the Duchies themselves couldn’t handle well.

This has become an unwritten rule of the Yibel Federation."

"After all, the Royal Court is very concerned about the lower Duchies..."

Elanna said softly, but her expression quickly changed:

"Kael, you heard about that news, right?

The Sirgil Duchy has already made preparations, positioning a large number of Knights and soldiers at the border with the other country, ready to go to war with Orean Independent Kingdom at any time.

It’s uncertain what serious consequences this battle might trigger."

As she spoke, Elanna’s face involuntarily showed a worried expression; before she was a Knight, she was first and foremost a member of the Yibel Federation.

She too held the conviction to protect this nation, with a confidence no less than any other.

However, after Kael’s guidance, Elanna also understood that the current situation of the Yibel Federation was not so friendly.

Now, as one of the Nine Duchies of the Yibel Federation, Sirgil Duchy was actually taking the initiative to wage war on Orean Independent Kingdom, which was a very bad omen. Experience more tales on NovelBin.Côm

Upon hearing this news, Elanna seemed to smell the scent of war.

Kael took a sip of tea, his expression still fairly calm. Sirgil Duchy is a Duchy centered around commerce, more prosperous in commerce compared to the less commercially thriving Duchy of Ryan.

In Sirgil, where alchemy and machinery thrive, various industries flourish. It is also the largest producer of Alchemy Equipment, Magic Potions, and large-scale Magic Crystal Mechanisms in the entire Yibel Federation.

In theory, as a state thriving on commerce, under normal circumstances, they would not have the desire to initiate war.

After all, the foundation of commercial stability comes from order, and destroying order would inevitably cause commercial turmoil.

After all, this is not a proxy war, where one only pays without taking the field, then watches as proxies and other countries become embroiled in conflict.

The situation in Orean Independent Kingdom is also special, for the nation is not, in the traditional sense, formed and controlled by a single race.

The primary ethnic group in Orean Independent Kingdom is the half-people.

The half-people are not indigenous to this world; they come from a Dungeon dating back to the age of gods, now untraceable in origin.

This group, normally only three feet tall, is filled with clever and capable opportunists.

These individuals, even in adulthood barely reaching a meter in height, are surprisingly popular in certain domains.

Due to the nature of the half-people, this group can find a place almost anywhere.

Of course, this opportunistic race tends to have a common trait: a plethora of thieves who make a haul and then disappear.

In fact, due to the primary and actual controlling ethnic group’s characteristics, the entire Orean Independent Kingdom tends towards a "gamble the nation’s fortune" style.

Owing to this, the kingdom has a penchant for provoking trouble; recently, Sirgil Duchy extradited an old mage.

That old mage, Kael had heard of him. While studying Spell Theory, Kael had also read the works of that old mage.

As an old mage who had been active on the world stage more than 200 years ago, just like his own teacher Luxius, he belonged to the ranks of the Magic Monarchs.

Since he was active before the founding of the Yibel Federation, to avoid the calamities of war, the old mage dedicated to Spell research simply hid himself in the Papal State of Brinia to peacefully continue his theoretical studies.

As time passed, the old mage’s skill in Enchantment deepened, and ten years after the founding of the Yibel Federation, he successfully advanced to become a Magic Monarch.

Now, with the Federation’s growing strength, the old mage wanted to return to his homeland; after communicating with the high echelon of the Papal State, he was preparing to return.

However, this move displeased the true power-holders of The Papal State of Brinia – the Holy Hall.

Reaching the level of a Magic Monarch is itself considered one of the guarantees of national power, and even though the old mage didn’t do much to help the Holy Hall conquer other nations, the Holy Hall still did not plan to let him go back to his country.

Recalling this matter, Kael sighed and said to Elanna, "The Enchantment system is second only to the Prophetic system as one of the least battle-oriented systems.

Years ago, Mr. Bartlet chose to seek refuge in The Papal State of Brinia precisely because, at the time, there wasn’t even a second Magic Monarch in the Yibel Federation.

As a traditional mage more suited to control and support, had Mr. Bartlet stayed in the country as an academic mage, he likely would not have had the chance to advance to a Magic Monarch."
