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

Chapter 952 268: War Mage Academy, Luxius's Domineering Ways, and the Old Dragon King's Dragon Language Magic (10K)_3

"Once such a thing happens, our Bell Federation is very likely to miss the most important opportunity!"

"Opportunity?"

Kael said, somewhat surprised, "What exactly do you mean?"

"It's that..." The old headmaster scratched his head for a moment, finally revealing a bit of his cautious thought, "The opportunity to become the Mage Holy Land of the entire Shenhwa Continent!"

Kael, hearing this, laughed quietly, saying, "How could we lose the chance to become the Mage Festival?"

The old headmaster sighed and said, "Compared to other professional groups, the mage community is evidently more arrogant. After all, mages are, at the end of the day, a group of scholars. With more knowledge, we have principles when dealing with...

But all this is based on the premise that the interests do not grow so large as to tempt other powers.

The characteristics of war mages mean that any country wanting to advance its mage power needs to quickly learn about war mages. Isn't there a chance that open exchanges with other countries would result in nurturing enemies?

If they surpass us later, we might miss the only opportunity to make the Federation a Mage Holy Land!"

"You've got the premise wrong, everyone." Luxius suddenly spoke up from the side.

He glanced around at everyone, chuckled lightly, and said:

"You all never figured out one basic problem. For the profession of war mages, it's not just that they need war mages, war mages... also need them as nourishment!

Everyone, have you forgotten that one of our initial intentions in promoting the war mage profession was to firmly bind the [Mage Net] to all the world's mages.

That, to us, is the most important thing, isn't it?"

Everyone pondered upon hearing Luxius' words.

They could see the potential of [Mage Net], but they actually had a question mark in their minds about its true importance.

But now, it seemed they heard a meaningful answer from Luxius.

Their gazes turned to Kael.

At this moment, Kael's expression was calm, with no intention of refuting Luxius' words...

This became intriguing.

Even the creator of the war mage showed such an attitude, which had to give everyone a subtle feeling.

It seemed that for the Helois Monarch, he valued the Mage Net even above the glory of the war mages.

Kael looked at the contemplative crowd in front of him and did not explain his thoughts to them in detail.

After all, for the people of this era, it is difficult to understand how terrifying the concept of monopolizing the "right to interpret knowledge" truly is.

It is only now that the mage profession is still a bit obscure in various corners of the continent, unable to fully stand up.

If another century or two goes by, and more magic monarchs emerge to help mages secure their rights, then even if Kael brings out the war mages again, it would still be difficult to operate this way.

The rise of mages is an inevitable trend, and as long as other professions have not developed to specifically target the peculiarities of the mage profession, mages will eventually stand firmly in the world with a crushing posture.

But before that, the Mage Academia will still face huge restrictions due to its relatively scarce upper, middle, and lower-level personnel. The purpose of war mages is to break through this restriction, rather than clinging to outdated practices.

Even if we assume that right now Kael chooses to lock all content related to war mages from the outside world, not leaving any leeway for other forces, does it have any significance for those magic monarchs who have already found the corresponding development direction through Kael?

Clearly not.

The magic domain shares great commonalities with the research domain: many studies are initially established on an ongoing trial and error basis, and once someone finds a correct path through trial and error, as long as they know the direction, they can quickly replicate similar things.

The remaining issue to grapple with is whether the replicated things can have the same high strength as the original version.

But... as long as they can be replicated successfully, for these pioneers, it undoubtedly counts as a success.

After all, even if it is slightly weaker with a lower ceiling, most apprentice mages at the bottom would find it difficult to detect that small difference.

But the objective reality is that the war mage profession enhances their productivity, and no matter how Kael tries to stop it, there is no way to completely isolate other mages from the war mage profession.

Instead of this, it's better to announce it widely —

[Want to become a war mage? Then permanently open your sect's related knowledge to the Mage Net in exchange! I've put everything about the war mages there (Mage Net)!]

What you wish for, I'll give to you all, not only that, but I will also ensure meticulous service, so that just absorbing the existing systems of war mages will already keep you overwhelmingly busy.

With this, there is no need to specially research and develop a path for a war mage belonging to your own country.
