chapter29 Leding United Kingdom

(Omitted)... At the end of the war, the Leding Kingdom, which had been at a disadvantage in the confrontation, used the wind magician to defeat the once considered invincible tactic - the combination of the earth-bound formation to increase the armored infantry. From then on, countries never dared to put the bet of victory on a single army. However, as a mature tactic, the heavy armored infantry was preserved... (Omitted)... After the defeat of its own army, the original problems in the country finally came to an end.

It broke out at one time, and the policy of empathy adopted by the Grand Duke of Roland, who was in power in the Leding Kingdom, was over in just three months. The establishment of the United Kingdom of Leding marked the chaotic mountains for countless centuries that finally ushered in a unified situation. The only puzzle in this war was why the Leding Kingdom used the wind magician until the last moment, perhaps because of the thought of this tactic? Or because of other less-known reasons... (Omitted)

The above is excerpted from "The Founding of the United Kingdom of General History of the Mainland"

－－－－－－－－－

Three hundred years later, the Sophiene Kings Magic Association was in the library.

"Teacher Berenka! I don't want to hear any general history of the mainland!" said a little girl about ten years old wearing clothes for the Sophie Royal Family, who was lying on the sofa opposite the glain without any image, "I have been forced to memorize that book many times! So I want to hear stories like the unofficial history you found by Teacher Berenka!"

"Your Highness Princess chris, if your female official saw you like now, it would be a few more hours of lectures?" He gently closed the heavy "Continental General History: United Kingdom Volume" in his hand, and Liuli took off the glasses on the bridge of his small nose. Originally, he was just curious and put them on to play, but later because others thought that she had a mature temperament after wearing glasses, so since then, when Liuli was studying, she wore those glasses that were actually just a good look.

"It doesn't matter, Mr. Berenka!" said the little girl who was called Princess Crystal by Liuli with a wicked smile. "I have already paid Jessica to buy things for me. She will definitely not be able to come back until dinner!"

"You are really a ghost elves~ Little Kris." After putting the book back on the bookshelf, Liuli took a sip of warm black tea. "However, as your nominal history teacher, I still have to test you. Why can the wind magician defeat the once-deserved earth-bound formation and increase the combination of armored infantry? What kind of policy did the Grand Duke Roland of the United Kingdom at that time implement to suppress the riots in the Leyman Kingdom without any effort to defeat the army of Leyman Kingdom? Since Little Kris, you can recite "General History of the Continent" in a flash, I believe that these two questions will definitely not be difficult for you? If you can't answer, then there will be no story today~"

"Hmph! Of course, this kind of problem cannot defeat me, a genius! Teacher Berenka." Kris said in a proud tone, "The heavy armored infantry sacrificed their movement power in exchange for extremely high defense ability, but they are still absolutely powerless in the face of magic. However, the earth-bound array invented by the Royal Magician of Kaochi changed this situation. The earth-bound array can greatly improve the defense of the heavy armored soldiers and their resistance to attack magic, so that as long as they have established heavy armored infantry, they can slowly and firmly advance the front line, unless the opponent is also the same heavy armored infantry.

——However, metal smelting is very difficult, so the only ones who once had a large number of heavily armored infantry legions were the Kingdom of Kaochi and Leman. However, after the earth-binding formation strengthened the heavy armored infantry again, there was a bad consequence, that is, the speed of the heavy armored infantry was slower! And the heavy armored infantry, which was already as slow as the turtle dragon beast, was hit by the wind-binding technique in the wind-type magic, would completely become a fixed target! At this time, as long as those earth-type magicians were trapped, those heavy armored infantry would be captured one by one!”

"Well, the answer is good, Chris. But I missed a few points. The soil-binding array is a fixed magic array. After activation, as long as the magician is still in the array, it will not disappear on its own. Therefore, the primary magic of Wind Binding Technique, which originally had no effect, can truly achieve its effect." Liuli added, "Because you missed this, I want to ask you another question."

"Hey~ Why is this happening, Teacher Berenka!" Chris pouted unhappily.

"So, why don't the magicians in the Kingdom of Leding use water pricking techniques that are better than the wind-binding technique?"

"Of course I know this! Water Prison is an intermediate magic, and of course it is not as cost-effective as the primary magic wind-binding technique that can already have a good effect! And, most importantly, Water Prison was invented two hundred years ago and it is impossible to be used in the war three hundred years ago!" Kris said, "Right! Teacher Berenka. I answered it, Teacher Berenka, tell me a story quickly~!"

"You really answered this question by Krissie," Liuli said, "But don't want to get away with it~ There is another question you didn't answer~"

"Tsk... haven't you missed it yet~" Chris said with an unhappy expression of a trick being exposed, "Is the policy implemented by Grand Duke Roland... Scared! How do I know what a dead man has done? Teacher Berenka, you know that I don't like those things at all!"

"Actually, you know why, little Chris." Liuli said, "Your brother - now Emperor Sophine - has two children. Almost everyone can see that you can only be a pleasure king when you grow up, while your sister is addicted to musical instruments. Moreover, although they are already teenagers and older than you, anyone can see that neither of them is as good as you in terms of political talent. So, everyone is actually looking forward to you as the next queen of the Kingdom of Sophine."

"I don't want to be trapped in that unanimous palace forever!" Chris said unhappily, "I want to learn from Teacher Berenka, travel all over the continent, and study the true meaning of magic!"

"Hey~" Liuli sighed, "Actually, as myself, I don't want you, a talented student, to be trapped there. But no matter how disliked the life of the palace, you don't want to see the successor of the Sophiene Kingdom? Of course, forcing someone to do something he particularly doesn't want to be the right choice. So the final decision depends on yourself, Chris."

"Yes, I understand, Mr. Berenka." Kris' expression was rare and serious, but before he could finish this sentence, he changed back to the kind of a bit bad smile. "Mr. Berenka, hurry up and tell today's story~!"

"Little Chris, you didn't answer the right question~ So, there is no story today." Liuli also said with a smile.

"Hey~No, Mr. Berenka." Chris ran from the small table to the sofa where Liuli was sitting, and held Liuli's arms with both arms and said coquettishly, "Didn't I answer a question? Then at least half of it~"

"You said the same thing several times, but in the end you still pestered me to tell me the time you had to go back to the palace." Liuli said with a smile, "So, if you didn't answer all my questions today, there would be no story."

"No, Teacher Berenka~" Chris continued to act coquettishly, "It's good to only talk halfway today! I will never bother you, teacher!"

"Okay, OK, stop shaking, little Chris. I can't even drink black tea." Liuli said, "Okay, since you said you won't pester me hard, I'll tell half of the story."

"Yeah! Teacher Berenka, you are the best!" Chris hugged Liuli and said happily.

"Okay, let me think about what kind of story I want to tell today?" Liuli took a sip of black tea, "It's a little cold... Well, let's tell that story today."

"What's the story, Mr. Berenka?" Chris looked at Liuli with anticipation.

"This is a story about family, friendship, love, and war, betrayal, destruction, and rebirth." After heating the black tea in the cup slightly, Liuli took a sip and continued, "Legendary, a long time ago, there was a pair of royal brothers and sisters from the Holy Britannian Empire..."

Night falls.

The entrance to the library of the Magic Society.

"I'm very sorry, Beren Casfil's senior magician, Your Highness Princess has caused you trouble again." A servant knight who looked very heroic but slightly short said to Liuli. In fact, Jessica is a girl, and no matter in the orthodox Sophin or the open Kaochi, the female knight is not allowed. Therefore, Jessica is very grateful for her knowing her true gender but still taking in her own Princess Chris - although in Liuli's opinion, Chris should just find it fun. On her back, she was carrying the sleeping Princess Chris.

"Little Chris is very smart and won't cause any trouble for me." Liuli said with a smile, "It's Jessica, you have been running away for another day. You must be very tired, right? Go back and rest quickly."

"Thank you, Beren Casfil's Senior Magician."

"Hey~ You really can't change this title. You'll just keep telling you to call me Berenka."

"For the Knights, this is the basic etiquette, Miss Beren Casfil!"

"Okay okay, I won't force it." Liuli said, "Go back to the palace quickly, it's already so late."

"Good night, too, Beren Casfil's senior magician."

Then, Jessica left the Magic Society with Chrissie on her back. As the sound of a carriage sounded, Liuli knew that little Chris was going to go back to the palace she hated. There, almost everyone had to wear a mask.

"Miss Berenka, good evening." Vicardoli... No, now he should be called Victor. He took a bottle of wine and came to Liuli, "What a beautiful moonlight~ How can there be no beauty and wine?"

"Okay, I know you're pretending like this, Vicardoli." Liuli said, "Is there anything you need to ask me for?"

"Such good Podor wine...it seems that I can only drink it alone~"

"If you just come here to say nonsense, leave the wine and continue to die in a drunken dream. Viktor, high-level, magician, master."

"Well...well, I really have something to come to you." Vicardoli said with a serious expression.
