Reborn Dragon Vein Warlock, Genius Beauty Mage

The first thing Christine did after returning to Dominaria City was to reward people based on their merits. Harland Coy was canonized as a knight of merit, and a village was awarded as a fief. He rewarded his uncle Liam Stewart with a village for his achievements in regaining a large number of territories.

In Alicia's absence, most of the soul energy escaping from Christine's body was instilled into Carlotani. She is now a seventeenth-level assassin and a seventh-level arcanist, disguised as a seventh-level mage to the outside world.

During the Demonic Disaster, Christine didn't just say what kind of military exploits an intermediate mage could obtain, so she found an excuse and rewarded Karlotani with a village.

Next is the construction of the new territory of the Loire County.

The demonic disaster caused a large number of people to be displaced, including ordinary civilians, not to mention slaves. Many nobles who purchased supplies from Stewart would use slaves to pay off their debts, because there was really no extra food to feed them.

Christine promised the slaves in exchange that they would be released as ordinary citizens after three years of good behavior. The earliest batch was still one year away, so this time they were moved and placed in various villages and towns.

Although the villages have been reduced to ruins, the Stewart Territory does not lack various tools for construction, and wood and stones are not all over the place. These slaves were told that this was their new home, and building a house for themselves was absolutely guaranteed in terms of labor enthusiasm and efficiency. What's more important is that the reconstruction cost is very low, and it's enough to just take care of the food.

The Baron of Le Mans and the Baron of Laval were attacked by demons, so not even a tenth of their residents survived. Because the Angers Viscounty got the news relatively late, many of its residents were killed, but the Baron Shaoying had more people left. Although Christine promised to be responsible for the food supply of these noble people, in fact, the combined population is only one viscounty and one barony.

They were promised to provide food and supplies for another year when they moved. This would be next year, but Christine paid the promised gold coins now and received enthusiastic praise from several nobles.

Of course she was not out of kindness, but the families of these nobles had already moved to Dominaria City. She gave them the money in advance and estimated that they would have almost spent it by the time they left. With money in their hands and all kinds of goods and luxury goods in their shops, few nobles could resist such temptation.

A week later, Christine received two magical letters. A letter came from the capital of France. The king and the noble council approved the Stuart Territory's application to declare war on the Nantes Territory, so she sent someone to send a formal declaration of war to the Earl of Nantes. A letter came from the headquarters of the Mages Guild, and it was the investigation results about the explosion of the Mages Tower in Nantes City.

This was purely out of Christine's own curiosity. She wanted to know how the mage tower exploded, so she asked the Mage Guild headquarters to let her know if they had any news.

As a well-known person on the mainland and a mage himself, there are many people who are friends with Christine at the guild headquarters. Besides, this matter is not a secret. As soon as the investigation results were reported there, a message was sent to her here. .

Although the explosion of the Wizard Tower destroyed most of the traces and the prophecy spells were also affected, you can still find something if you really want to check. After all, this is a world of divine arts and magic.

It did allow the Mages Guild's investigation team to find out the truth.

The explosion in the mage tower had nothing to do with demons. It was caused by a mage named Katukaf, who himself had absconded. As for the motive, it is speculated that he wants the devil to win.

This sounds magical, but once you know the reason, it makes sense.

Probably a few decades ago, there was a hereditary honorary baron named Megan in Loire County. By chance, he obtained a "treasure map", which recorded a place during the Magic Empire of ancient Netheril. remains.

The ancestors of the Megan family were knighted for being a high-level mage. They once reached the level of a field baron. Later, they declined and became a hereditary honorary baron. However, they still have the territory of three villages.

The family has a mage heritage and a certain financial strength. After obtaining the treasure map, they naturally wanted to explore it, so the eldest son of Baron Megan set off.

But for some unknown reason, the news leaked out and the Earl of Nantes learned about it, so he secretly sent someone to follow him. The final result was that the eldest son of Baron Megan and others never returned. The elder who led the team from the Nantes family changed his profession and became a "Magic Pattern Warrior" not long after his return. It was an obvious murder and treasure grabbing routine.

There is no airtight wall in the world. The Megan family may hear some rumors, but there is no way to accuse an elder of the Earl family without tangible evidence. Divine magic and magic could indeed detect lies, but for nobles and their relatives they could only be used during post-conviction interrogations.

Since there is no evidence, so what if the Meghan family is suspicious? What else can be done to the Earl of Nantes? If the Meghan family wants to take revenge in the future, they will just have to find another opportunity.

In the following years, the Count of Nantes continued to suppress the Meghan family, and finally forced them to leave their homeland. Since then, there has been no news about the Megan family. There are also rumors that they encountered bandits on the way to migration and were all killed.

More than ten years have passed, and people no longer remember what happened back then. A year ago, a seventh-level mage named Katukaf from the headquarters of the Mages Guild was transferred to the Nantes branch. Because Master Katukaf had a high level (in the branch) and was willing to handle mundane affairs, he gradually took over the management of the guild and the mage tower.

Not long ago, the demon army attacked the city, and other mages from the Mages Guild went to the battlefield. Master Katukaf led some apprentices to sit in the wizard tower to provide support.

If it is a private mage tower, the tower spirit is equivalent to the mage's pet, obeying the master's orders. But this is impossible for the guild's mage tower, because mages are mobile, and no mage stays in this branch all his life. Therefore, the Guild Mage Tower uses magic tokens of all levels. With whatever level of token you have, you can use the relevant permissions to command the tower spirit.

When the demon army attacks, Master Katukaf must have the highest authority token, otherwise how can he provide full support? If he had malicious intentions at this time, he only needed to activate the self-destruction program of the mage tower, which is what he actually did.

Then why didn't he explode sooner or later, but waited for the demon army to attack? Because Katukaf is a pseudonym, his real identity is the direct heir of the Megan family, and he came back this time to seek revenge from the Count of Nantes. of. The investigation team also found that the mysterious disappearance of several members of the Nantes family was related to Master Katukaf.

It is speculated that Master Katucav may want to blow up the mage tower when the devil attacks, so that the defense of Nantes City will be greatly reduced. Once the devil breaks through the city, the Earl of Nantes family will not be spared. It's just that Christine's participation in the battle caused the devil to fail too quickly, and his behavior of blowing up the mage tower had no effect.
