A Core Ship From The Start - Chapter 1300 - Chapter 1300 Chapter 877 Hard to Reverse after Accumulated

Chapter 1300: Chapter 877: Hard to Reverse after Accumulated Errors Chapter 1300: Chapter 877: Hard to Reverse after Accumulated Errors After reaching an agreement, Duanmu Huai turned and left, and the King returned to his own office, where a man was waiting for him.

“Your Majesty, are you sure you want to do this?”

Gazing at the King before him, Duke Glanz looked at him gravely, and the latter shook his head.

“For now, I can only hope that this has some effect, to some extent.”

“To be honest, I think it’s too risky for you to place your bets on an adventurer and an organization I’ve never heard of.”

“After all, isn’t it the very essence of an adventurer to take risks?”

Hearing Duke Glanz’s admonition, the King laughed aloud, then his expression turned serious once more.

“But honestly, I’m just taking a precaution, Glanz. At least, that one is indeed a towering warrior, and I trust my instincts, he should be a reliable person. To speak the truth, for the current state of Paretia Kingdom… perhaps this is the best temporary solution.”

With those words, the King walked to the window and stared solemnly outside.

No wonder the King looked so solemn. He was well aware that the Paretia Kingdom was currently facing tumultuous undercurrents, existing in a state of great turmoil.

And all this started from the era of the ancestors of the Paretia Kingdom.

In the ancient times, one day, the Demon Clan suddenly appeared before humans, capable of wielding unimaginable miracles–magic, and also flying across the skies. Thus, the Demon Clan initiated a large-scale massacre of humans. At that time, humans had almost no means of resistance against the Demon Clan.

It was then that the ancestors of Paretia Kingdom found a method–they made contracts with magical Elves, gaining the capability to use magic. Due to this, Paretia Kingdom became one of the few kingdoms that survived the onslaught of the Demon Clan, and they created a Barrier to isolate themselves from the Demon Clan using the strength of Elf Magic.

Naturally, the magicians capable of using Elf Magic became the Royal Family and nobility of Paretia Kingdom. They took pride in their bloodlines and believed that Paretia Kingdom would eventually become the beacon for mankind.

However, it’s a pity that although the ancestors of Paretia Kingdom were intelligent, other people weren’t fools either. Although the magic used by the Demon Clan was beyond human comprehension, humans still used their own ingenuity to create an entirely new magic system for themselves.

And so… well, that instantly put Paretia Kingdom in a very awkward position.

Though the power of Elf Magic was formidable, this magic required a contract with Elves, and only those of the Royal Family and noble bloodline of Paretia could forge such contracts. Ordinary people couldn’t use Elf Magic, which was a source of pride for the nobility.

Yet the emergence of the Human Magic System completely shattered the pride of the Paretia nobility.

It’s like driving a car; you feel superior driving a Rolls-Royce while watching others walk.

After all, if I’m driving while you’re walking, doesn’t that mean I’m better than you?

But just when you’re feeling smug, a Wuling Hongguang drives by next to you, flooring the gas pedal and throwing dust in your face…

Aren’t we all just running on four wheels on the ground? What’s so great about that? My Wuling Hongguang can even drift; dare your Rolls-Royce try that?

Although the Paretia nobility believed themselves noble with their use of Elf Magic and scorned the Human Magic System, calling it Civilian Magic.

But what of it?

Whether it’s Elf Magic or Civilian Magic, doesn’t a summoned Fireball annihilate the Demon Clan just the same?

This is why the Paretia nobility harbored extreme hatred towards Civilian Magic, but as the Royal Family, it was clear they couldn’t afford the shortsightedness of the nobility. The Paretia Royal Family had long found out that if things continued this way, Elf Magic would eventually wane, and the Human Magic System would dominate universally. After all, Elf Magic still required specific bloodlines to make contracts, while the Human Magic System was accessible to anyone with talent.

Thus, the Royal Family had once attempted to change this predicament. In fact, the late King had once tried to bestow a noble title on someone who had made a significant contribution using the Human Magic System.

This, however, caused extreme dissatisfaction among the nobility, who saw it as a threat. After all, the nobility were not fools; they knew compared to Elf Magic, the Human Magic System was easier to learn and spread. If this precedent was set, it was feared that in a few years, all nobility using Elf Magic would be completely overtaken by those using the Human Magic System.

Thus, to protect their status and honor, the nobility straightforwardly and decisively launched a rebellion.

Yes, a rebellion.

They would rather wage war and utterly destroy the entire kingdom than allow the Human Magic System to occupy the position that originally belonged to them.

The current King was forced to ascend to power amid this rebellion. Although he, together with his close friend Duke Glanz, eventually managed to suppress the rebellion and purge those nobles responsible for it, the steadfast adherence of the nobility to their status and Elf Magic still profoundly shocked the King.

In fact, the loss of the Northern Fortress happened due to the internal strife caused by this noble rebellion, leading to the Northern Land falling under attack from the Demon Clan, resulting in their advance right to the gates of Royal City. It was only then that the Royal Family and nobility finally came together and jointly repelled the Demon Clan’s offensive. But after this battle, the Royal Family dare not discuss the Human Magic System lightly anymore.
