Chapter 882 256 Judgment: Kael's Original Sin Theory; Bridge to the Magic Monarch (10K)_5
The glorious period of the goblin empire hasn't passed for long, and now another top nation has fallen. Without some control, it's hard to explain to the followers below!
But...
"Whether I can become the second Lionheart Duke, I never cared that much. In the end, the position of the Duke is not something elected; it depends on the opinion of the Lionheart Duke himself.
The winds blown by others probably won't affect the Lionheart Duke; it's highly unlikely."
After Kael finished speaking, a smile unconsciously appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Others might not know his background, but how could the Lionheart Duke not know?
When he furthered his relationship with the enchanting Flandre, Flandre didn't really hide much afterward.
She couldn't help but tearfully recount the story of his mother Sibel and the time when Anthony came to Lion Heart Castle and inadvertently had an encounter with Sibel.
Incubus... truly a terrifying race.
Even someone as strong as the half-blood Flandre, possessing dragon blood, ultimately could only lie in bed pleading, "I don't want to come again."
The scene once was where the imposing Dragon Knight tamed the proud and aloof Golden Dragon. In the end, all the arrogance of the controller of Lion Heart Castle, all the coldness of the powerful Dragon Girl, was vented in cries of exhaustion.
What remained was merely waves of lamentation.
The truth uttered amidst sobs, after satisfying Kael's curiosity for mysteries, also allowed him a moment of mental relief.
In short, it was all very confusing.
The relationship between Anthony and Sibel, purely judging by age, was basically the standard plot of a child driving a big car.
Ahem... In this regard, Kael indeed inherited his father's traits, after all, his situation with Flandre mirrored this; neither could look down on the other.
When he shared everything with the Dragon Girl, Kael realized a problem.
If his mother first lived in Lion Heart Castle and accompanied Flandre of that year in growing up, there's no reason the Lionheart Duke wouldn't know about this.
For such a long time, how could it be impossible to clarify the relationship network behind an incubus?
It means his mother Sibel had a very close relationship with the current Succubus Queen in the Abyss, and the Lionheart Duke knew about it...
It's even possible that the Federation over there also knew about it.
Since the Lionheart Duke did not stop his father Anthony from taking Sibel back then, nor did he obstruct the possibility of him becoming the next Duke of the Duchy of Engrand, he probably wouldn't care about this matter.
"Lionheart Duke, or rather, what exactly has the Federation been doing in private all these years?"
Kael fell into deep thought for a moment.
Indeed, if deduced along this line, the Bell Federation might really have been cooperating with that Succubus Queen!
"I hope this incident won't affect the advancement of [Mage Net]. No... it will definitely have an impact, but it's just a matter of whether I can handle it."
Kael snorted softly, a dangerous look flashing through his eyes.
The other things that could likely be seized away by others were Kael's research achievements.
Especially some related achievements in the field of magic models and magic potions, there will surely be quite a few buffoons popping up and barking.
"Grandpa White, don't look at the Mage Group as a bunch of intellectuals, but there are some weird patterns within the Mage Group.
In the theoretical academia of mages, the ones with lower theoretical achievements are often more arrogant. When it comes to external publicity, often the higher-ups in the theoretical academia can't compete with the mid-tier, the mid-tier can't compete with the lower tier, and the lower tier can't compete with non-professionals.
In the end, you'll find that those who stand up to cheer for others are often those who have only reached a non-professional level in spell theory.
This is how the Mage Group is; often in the end, it is the illiterate who reigns.
This is also why Mr. Luxius can thrive in Mage Academia. As a Magic Monarch, he's good at playing rogue.
If you play rogue, you can't outdo the teacher; if you talk theory, you can't out-talk the teacher; if you fight, you definitely can't beat him, so he will never fall to a level like the Bartlet Monarch where he's criticized."
"Oh? This is the first time someone said this to me. Is it because the mages can't save face?" Old White was somewhat surprised for a moment.
The stereotype about mages in the outside world is that this group of people stays holed up in their laboratories for years doing research and casting spells, unwilling to come out unless necessary.
This stereotype always gives others the illusion that mages are a very reasonable bunch.
However, Kael shook his head and said, "No, it's not, or rather, most of them aren't.
Among all the professions, mages are the ones least likely to cause trouble. Swordsters rely on battle groups, warriors rely on adventurer groups, and they are easily influenced by large groups.
But mages aren't like that; they exist more as individuals, so a considerable number of them have their own agendas.
It's precisely because they have learned too much and know too much that those mages with ulterior motives prefer to let others make trouble while they hide in the back, manipulating others, while always staying in the safest place, causing mischief from behind."
