Reborn Dragon Vein Warlock, talented beautiful mage.

Chapter 23：Follow-up

Since the evil sacrifice performed by Iber had passed, the great True God Churches no longer paid any attention to it. In fact, since the various catastrophes caused by magicians happened every few years, they were not really surprised to see it happen again.

Even if they accidentally summoned demons to the main world, they had done so many times before. As for summoning other strange creatures or even non-creatures, there were even more of them.

After all, mages have the ability and conditions to do this, and the attraction of exploring other planes and even demons is huge for mages. It is only natural that there will be some 'scientific accidents' along the way.

If the evil sacrifice of Iber had not taken place, this book with its evil contents would have been ignored for hundreds of years, even if it had been placed in the library of Count Raine's castle. However, as it has happened, the Church of the God of Order must investigate.

The Earl of Ren believed the words of the Bishop of the Church of the God of Order. In any case, this was a personal act by Yibel, and after the Earl of Ren 'donated' 10,000 gold coins to the Church, the matter was settled.

The Count of Ren then hastily arranged for all the books in the castle library to be examined, and any that were unintelligible were packed up and sent to the Church.

Although the Count of Rennes owned a town and received a considerable amount of taxes every day, he still had a lot of money to spend. So he was reluctant to part with 20,000 gold coins in such a short time.

So he took it out on Ibel's father, Arcati Rennes, in the form of constant criticism, cursing him behind his back when no one was around, and cursing him to his face when they met.

Master Nazan also thanked Christine for saving his life. Although he was confused all the time, he knew that he would probably have died without the help of the other party.

Saving someone's life is not something that can be settled with a simple thank you. If you don't show your appreciation, it will ruin your reputation and no one will want to deal with you after that. So Master Nazan gave Christine 500 gold coins.

If it hadn't been for the compensation Count Rein had given him, he wouldn't have been able to afford it.

A few days later, Lord Pierre Roglan, who was in the capital of France on business, sent a messenger to Christine with a letter telling her that all the formalities had been completed and that he was now returning with the King's envoy.

The nobles of this continent enjoy a high degree of freedom, so the succession of titles is a mere formality, and the Council of Nobles and the King will never disagree.

A letter was also sent from the Dragon God Church in the capital, informing them that they would also be sending a bishop to attend Christine's succession ceremony. This was understandable, after all it was the Dragon Bloodline and the Dragon God Faith area, so it made sense for the Church to send someone of importance to show their support.

Coincidentally, the elves also wanted to send someone.

Christine had previously wanted to build a high-level mage tower, so she wrote to both the mage guild and the elves to ask. She couldn't get a better deal, but it was better than just comparing prices.

The Mage Guild and the Elves each had their own strengths in magic. The former had the advantage of a wide range, and human mages studied everything. The latter had the advantage of specialisation, after all they had a long history.

The Wizards' Tower, however, is a structure that originated in the ancient magical realm of Nesrur and is the crystallisation of the wisdom of the great archmages. Although later mages produced many natural geniuses, no one was able to make any modifications.

When it comes to things with a historical legacy, elven solutions are naturally the best, so Christine chose to have the elves help build the Mage Tower.

The reason why it is said that today's mages are not as good as they used to be is because the archmages of the ancient magical realm of Nesriel drove the floating cities into the heavens and the earth, daring to capture and study both the demon lords of the abyss and the true gods with weak divine power.

So which mage dares to do this, and which mage can?

Of course, the Grand Archmages were also destroyed by the gods for such behaviour, but races such as the elves, who have a long life and an unbroken heritage, still have some information in their hands. However, as it did not affect the overall situation, the gods let it go.

As for why the elves helped Christine build the Wizards' Tower, of course it was for the money.

Don't think that elves are pure and innocent. It's misleading to think that they live in wooden huts, eat fruit and drink clear water, wear beautiful clothes and openwork and carved armour, and that everyone is an artist.

In fact, elves have their own cities, but they are built in harmony with nature so that they look like they live in the forest. And just like human civilians, elven civilians have their own jobs, otherwise where would all the gorgeous clothes and exquisite household items come from?

It's just that because elves have a long life expectancy, their general level of knowledge is very high, and after a long time doing any job, they naturally have higher aspirations, which gives other races the impression that elves are artists per capita and that their items are exquisitely made.

In fact, the pursuit of a comfortable life is the instinct of every living creature. In addition to having enough to eat and wear, elves are willing to indulge in more luxuries, which of course require gold coins to buy.

Elven Island has always traded with the human mainland, exporting wine, tea, jewellery, etc. and importing meat, spices, furs, etc. However, Elven Island is not like the mainland, it exports less and imports more.

The elven class is not as strict as the human class, so ordinary elves live a comfortable life because they don't have to pay taxes to their lords. But if an elf family wants to live in luxury, they have to find a way to make money.

And don't talk about racial traditions and whatnot. Humans are still the dominant race on the mainland. Elves can't just sit back and watch the human nobles eat and drink while they pick fruit from the trees.

So when Christine wrote to her mother's family, the Morningstars, to ask about building the Wizards' Tower, the Morningstars decided to take on the job.

So this time they sent someone to attend the celebration of Christine's succession on behalf of the elves, and also to look after the construction of the Wizards' Tower.

Naturally, the celebration had to take place in their own territory, so Christine set off immediately to return to it.

The reason for the early start was that there was so much to prepare. Invitations had to be sent to all the nobles of sufficient status throughout the county of Brittany, both field nobles and hereditary honorary nobles, inviting them to attend the ceremony.

After the letter was sent and received, it would take about half a month for the nobles to arrive. During this time, the nobles who lived nearby might arrive first, and she would have to receive them.

Fortunately, the arrangements for the venue had been made long before, and a hereditary lord of the manor who knew about it had been hired to work with the butler, Victor.

Fortunately, Baron Stewart had money, so all this was much easier.
