Chapter 875 Refuse the invitation from the Holy Magic Academy
"Baron Nalant, thank you for your help!" Carlisle was also an old fox. He knew that Nalant had become the first person in space magic.
And not only is he a magician and a martial artist, but he is also a magician. His future prospects are limitless, so being able to reconcile with him is definitely a good thing.
At that moment, a smile filled his face.
After a pause, Carlisle continued: "Baron Nalant, now you have become a magister, which is considered an absolutely respected existence in our Holy Continent."
"If Baron Nalant is willing, I would like to extend an invitation to Baron Nalant on behalf of the Holy Magic Academy."
"You are invited to join our Sacred Magic Academy."
"Join the Sacred Magic Academy? Sorry, I have no plans to do so for the time being!" Nalant shook his head after hearing this.
Carlisle paused, not expecting Nalant to refuse.
From Carlisle's point of view, his request was definitely something that ordinary magicians could not refuse.
Because you have the identity of the Holy Magic Academy, you will be protected by the Holy Magic Academy from now on.
Especially now that Nalant has killed the eldest prince of the Nabach Empire.
If Nalant joins the Sacred Magic Academy, there is no guarantee what his territory will be like.
But Nalant's life safety can definitely be guaranteed.
Of course, he was not really selfless in doing so, and wanted to protect the safety of the magician Nalant.
But because Narant had offended the Bach Empire, this was the perfect opportunity to prevent Narant from getting rid of the protection of the Sacred Magic Academy.
And how did Nalant practice the space system and how to complete the dual cultivation of magic and martial arts.
At that time, these secret sacred magic schools can be explored.
When his life was threatened, Nalant would definitely not dare to keep silent about it.
Especially the person who is most 'familiar' with him now, he will be able to obtain the secret of cultivation more quickly.
"Baron Nalant, joining our Sacred Magic Academy will not restrict your freedom."
"In addition, our Holy Magic Academy will also protect every magician who joins. If you are in danger, you can apply for asylum from our Holy Magic Academy."
"Also, with your current level of strength, Baron Nalant, there are many magic spells in the academy that can be opened to you for free for you to learn!"
Carlisle suspected that Nalant had not guessed the key, so he simply made the matter clear.
How did he know that Nalant had already guessed his little thoughts clearly in these two lifetimes.
There is no free lunch in this world, so if you want to get benefits, you must pay for it.
And he, Narant, didn't want to tell others the secret of this space magic, and he couldn't tell anyone.
So he really doesn't want to get involved with the Holy Magic Academy in order to take revenge against the Bach Empire.
As for the Encyclopedia of Magic Spells Carlisle mentioned, Nalant himself had a ready-made copy, and there was no need to join the Sacred Magic Academy for this purpose.
"Sir Carlisle, I appreciate your kindness, but my ideal is to be a great lord." Nalant refused again.
"Well, if Baron Nalant changes his mind in the future, you can contact me again at any time!"
When Carlisle heard Nalant's firm refusal again, although he was very disappointed, he did not dare to say anything more.
I just think that now Nalant has not realized the power of revenge from the Bach Empire, so he can still refuse.
When faced with life or death in the future, I will definitely seek asylum without hesitation.
"That's fine. Baron Nalant will cherish this identity even more when the time comes!" Carlisle muttered in his heart.
There was no words for the rest of the journey. Everyone and the coalition troops marched non-stop, and finally returned to the edge of the isolation zone five days later.
At the edge of the isolation zone, Nalant met the team of goblins waiting here.
After the team reunited, they continued towards the Fortress of Thorns, and finally entered the Fortress of Thorns a week later.
In this way, the coalition forces are completely safe.
The supplies that had been consumed on the road were also replenished in the City of Thorns, so all the coalition forces chose to rest here for a few days.
However, upon returning to the Thorn Fortress, Prince Eric's death finally began to ferment.
When the nobles of the Bach Empire entered the Thorn Fortress, they finally found a sense of security.
After all, the Fortress of Thorns represents the area where the authority of the Bach Empire can shine.
And in the land of death, if Nalant really takes action against them, no one would dare to stop him.
The nobles of the Bach Empire immediately conveyed the news back to the Bach Empire.
In fact, it was not just the Bach Empire's own team that sent the news back.
The same goes for the rest of the empires and principalities.
Because with the strength that Nalant has shown now, he already has enough strength to influence the alliance pattern.
As for his conflict with the Bach Empire, this is definitely an important matter. Each king needs to receive the news as soon as possible to prepare for the changes that may occur next.
"Narant, in fact, the invitation from Magister Carlisle may not be an opportunity for you to save yourself from danger!"
In the Thorn Fortress, Duke Miller spoke to Nalant with a slightly worried expression.
"Duke Miller, I know this is indeed an opportunity, but if you want to get enough protection from the Holy Magic Academy, they must also see enough benefits."
"But my situation is a bit complicated, and I'm afraid I can't give them such benefits. So, Duke Miller, don't try to persuade me on this matter."
"Well, Nanarant, you should be well prepared when you return. Although I have discussed with President Theodore, I will try my best to prevent the Bach Empire from retaliating against you with force."
"But the Bach Empire has been very domineering in its behavior within the alliance. Even if the parliament does not agree, I am afraid they will not listen to this opinion."
Duke Miller sighed after hearing this and did not try to persuade him again.
"Okay, Duke Miller, I will make thorough preparations when I go back!" Nalant nodded.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Afterwards, Nalant and Duke Miller continued to chat for a while before saying goodbye.
After leaving Duke Miller's station, Nalant went directly to President Theodore's camp.
"President Theodore!"
"Baron Narante is here, sit down quickly!"
After returning to the City of Thorns, President Theodore became busy.
Not only does a detailed report of the expedition need to be made, but it will also be submitted to all the imperial principalities at the Alliance Council.
It is also necessary to count up the meritorious deeds of the principalities and empires to complete the rewards and punishments stipulated by the alliance.
After Nalant sat down, President Theodore continued to write for a while, then put down the work at hand and said to Nalant: "Baron Nalant, when are you going to return to Stormland?"
"I've been resting in this Thorn Fortress for two days, and I'm going to start my return journey tomorrow."
"Well, I will return tomorrow. Even if you go back early, Baron Nalant should make some preparations in advance!" President Theodore nodded and gave a subtle reminder.
"Haha, thank you, President Theodore, for reminding me!"
"By the way, Baron Nalant must have other things to do when he came today, right?" Theodore's relationship with Nalant was not as close as that with Duke Miller.
Moreover, he does not have the status of an imperial duke like Duke Miller, so the dispute between Nalant and the Bach Empire can only be touched upon.
Then he changed the subject and asked other questions.
"Yes, President Theodore, I came to you today because I really have something to ask."
"Speak, Baron Narante."
"President Theodore, although it may be rude for me to ask this, my holy city is quite far away from the Storm Territory, so I still take the liberty to speak."
"I would like to ask, if I follow previous years, what kind of reward can I get for my achievements in this expedition?"
"Baron Nalant, although the achievements of various empires and principalities are still being tallied, and they will still need to be recognized by all noble representatives in the parliament."
"However, Baron Narant, your performance is obvious to all. Therefore, if you follow your achievements in previous years, you can at least exchange Baron Narant for a land area the size of two counties."
"The territory of the two counts?" Nalant nodded. On the way back, he got relevant information from the representatives of the nobles of the principality.
I heard that those principalities with outstanding performance were able to obtain land the size of a county in previous years.
Of course, due to changes in this year's expedition, only half of the plan was completed, so the reward is likely to shrink.
I'm afraid it would be good for the principalities to receive land rewards half the size of an earldom.
But now that he can get an area the size of two counties, the Alliance Council is not stingy.
However, the purpose of Nalant's trip was not for land. "President Theodore, actually land is not the most important thing to me now."
"I would like to ask if I can exchange the reward this time in exchange for my fiancée Stella returning to the Storm Territory."
"This..." Theodore was stunned for a moment.
"Baron Nalant, this is the land of two earls."
Although the land awarded to Nalant will definitely be near his territory.
This also means that the gold content is not as high as the land in the hinterland of the Holy Alliance, but it is also an officially recognized existence.
Nalant was willing to exchange it for the freedom of the prophet goddess, which still surprised Theodore.
It was just an accident. After Theodore came to his senses, he shook his head helplessly, "Baron Nalant, I'm afraid this matter is a bit difficult!"
"Although the goddesses have not grown up yet, their performance in this expedition was not outstanding."
"But the performance of the previous generation of goddesses more than a hundred years ago is obvious to all, so the empires will definitely not give up on the prophet goddess easily!"
"So it's still a little difficult to get the Prophet and Goddess to leave the Holy City."
"Is that so?" Nalant frowned slightly.
I originally thought that because the performance of the goddesses this time was not outstanding, they could rely on the interests of their two counties in exchange.
He can even guarantee that after Stella returns, she can still train goddesses for many empires.
But now hearing President Theodore say this, it is obvious that his idea will not work.
"Baron Nalant, actually you don't have to worry too much. With the strength you have shown now, you can actually gain a certain say in our alliance."
"And you are still so young. If you think about it in more than ten years, your achievements will definitely be dazzling."
"At that time, even if all the principalities are still unwilling to give up the interests of the goddess, I am afraid that no empire will dare to stand in the way of your marriage contract with the prophet goddess!"
"So, Baron Nalant, my suggestion is that you don't have to worry about the prophet goddess. Let's get through this matter with the Bach Empire safely first."
"Then work hard to cultivate and grow. When you grow to enough strength, everything will fall into place."
"Thank you, President Theodore, for your suggestion. I will consider it carefully!" Nalant nodded and said nothing more.
After all, Theodore is the president of the parliament, so he has a clearer understanding of the overall interests involved in the alliance than he does.
So if he says no, it definitely won’t work.
However, it is also impossible for him to wait for more than ten years, so he needs to see if there are other ways to solve Stella's problem.
Afterwards, Nalant said goodbye to President Theodore and returned to the camp.
"Narant, you are back. This is the barbecue that Shirley and I learned to make. Try it!"
As soon as Nalant returned to the camp, Stella came with a tray.
On the tray is a piece of barbecue grilled until golden brown and steaming hot.
Although the appearance is not as good as Chef Rose's, the aroma emanating from it shows that this barbecue is obviously not bad.
"Stella, I still have barbecue in my storage space, you don't have to bake it yourself!"
Nalant quickly took the tray, and then pulled Stella to sit on the chair next to him.
Of course, even though I said this, I felt happy in my heart.
Stella, a dignified noble lady, cooked for herself, and this barbecue was full of love.
"Narant, in the story books I have read in the past, virtuous wives will cook delicious food for their husbands!"
"Although we are not married yet, I also want to cook delicious food for you in advance."
Today, Stella changed from her normal state and became more straightforward in her speech.
"Okay, thank you very much Stella!" Nalant saw something strange in her eyes.
Obviously, Stella knew that she and she were going to be separated again.
"Stella, don't worry, I won't keep you waiting for too long!" Nalant made a promise without beginning or ending.
"Yes! Nalant, I believe you!" Stella smiled sweetly and nodded, but she didn't want to put too much pressure on her fiancé.
He immediately changed the subject and began to carefully cut the meat for Nalant and put it in a small bowl on the tray. "Narant, please try my cooking. I hope it's not too bad!"
"Haha, Stella, you don't need to taste it to know that the food my fiancée bakes is definitely the most delicious in the world!"
Nalant also enjoyed the sweetness with Stella, and immediately raised the bowl and started eating.
Although even using the unique spices provided by Little Loli, Stella's craftsmanship is still not one-third as good as Chef Rose's.
But when Nalant ate it, his expression of wonder never disappeared.
When Stella saw this, her beautiful smile did not stop for a moment, her eyes were full of tenderness and love.
In this way, this pair of lovers who will be separated tomorrow cherish the last time and spend it quietly in this sweet atmosphere.
