Chapter 954 268: War Mage Academy, Luxius's Domineering Ways, and the Old Dragon King's Dragon Language Magic (10K)_5
"I'm saying, with limited enrollment, at least we should first ensure that the mage seeds within the Federation can successfully take root and grow!"
"Even if it's to quickly expand the influence of War Mages, isn't choosing this method a bit too aggressive?"
"Exactly, exactly. We can delay a bit. Wouldn't it be better to start after you're officially appointed as the Dean of the War Mage Academy? At least by that time, we'll be prepared for external impacts!"
Upon hearing these words, a group of prominent figures in the Mage Academia couldn't sit still.
What kind of small maneuvers are these Federation troublemakers up to behind our backs again?
Wait a minute?
Their ears perked up.
What is this War Mage Academy? Don't tell me it's a new Magic Academy construction plan secretly passed within the Federation?
And unfortunately, it's related to War Mages, who are currently very popular!
Wait, what did I hear? Exchange student program? You mentioned that, and now I'm wide awake!
As for the position like Dean of the War Mage Academy, everyone didn't pay much attention to it.
To most mages, becoming the dean of a Magic Academy would already be something worth a lifetime of pride, but for this Helois Monarch, it's just another unremarkable pearl added to his crown of glory.
On the other hand, those mages of similar age and who are not part of the core power felt a sourness in their hearts.
The things they dreamed of all their lives were so easily achieved by someone else, such a vast difference is truly suffocating.
In a daze, a young mage murmured, "You all keep saying that the next era will be a new era for mages... But why do I feel it will be the era of Kael D. Helois...
Is this truly an achievement that someone my age could attain?"
The mages nearby had subtle changes in their expressions.
Just try, first create War Mages, then ascend to become a Magic Monarch, and now gain the position of the dean of the continent's first War Mage-related academy to adorn this beautiful [gemstone].
What kind of talent and luck does it take to reach this point?
Jealousy, jealousy indeed!
Why isn't the person standing on that stage me!?
But...
A group of young mages showed a dejected expression, thinking they could be intensely jealous, but after learning about the life of this Helois Monarch, the envy quickly disappeared.
When the gap becomes vast enough, they found they couldn't even feel jealous anymore.
Those young mages fell into a state of dejection. Ordinarily, their teachers would have rushed to comfort them upon noticing their psychological state.
But now, their teachers didn't have much thought to spare for such trivial matters.
A group of bigwigs in the Mage Academia, driven by various thoughts, quietly moved closer to this group of people, and then they heard Kael, the newly appointed Magic Monarch, explaining rather helplessly to a few people:
"There's a lot to consider here, after all, the Federation and Holy Briania are currently in a very dangerous state.
As members of the Federation, the priority surely should be considering the Federation's interests, right!
Collaborating with various factions and inviting exchange students to join the soon-to-be-established War Mage Academy can quickly help us train a larger number of War Mages who have received professional guidance. In this way, we can also use this larger number of War Mage Apprentices to reach more Mage Apprentices who are at risk of being overwhelmed within the Federation.
This approach is a good choice whether it's for expanding the Federation's tactical reserves or creating more fresh forces that can fight alongside the army and harness the advantages of being War Mages.
Mages belong to a nation as well. Now, the most important thing for us must be related to the Federation's survival, so I still think we should further open the range of exchange students selected for the exchange student program, it can't be limited within the Federation.
No, that's not right! We must not only open up the range for exchange students, but if possible, the first thing that needs to be opened is the [Mage Net], because only by opening up the Mage Net can we truly unleash the potential of the War Mages!
The profession of War Mage, by itself, is just a mere title, far from fully exploiting the real power of the profession. Without opening the Mage Net, the existence of War Mages loses its meaning!"
Just as Kael was speaking, the Old Dragon King suddenly came out from the crowd, squeezed in front of Kael, and loudly said:
"Your Federation is going to establish a War Mage Academy? If you're going for an exchange program, I can help you communicate with the Dragon Empire and coordinate for those young ones who like spells to participate."
Kael seemed a bit startled by this unexpected "assault," hesitated for a moment, then said helplessly:
"This matter is still under discussion. If it's already decided, I will contact you first thing and engage in detailed discussions."
"No need, no need. Since you all already have some of these thoughts internally, just agree to it. For us dragons, we are quite happy to accept new things."
