Grandmaster Hunter of Age of Mythology
Chapter 115: Attending the National Funeral Ceremony and Talking with the New King
After having lunch at a restaurant outside and going back home, he would have nothing to do again. He would solve the language problem first, and practice breathing techniques and physical training when he had nothing to do. He would definitely not waste his time.
At about two o'clock, the doorbell rang. Kashin hurriedly opened the door and saw a freckled girl about thirteen or fourteen years old standing at the door with a letter of recommendation from Bayan's mentor in her hand.
Ka asked her to come in and talk, but she looked around and said, "Are you an apprentice? How come you live in such a nice place? Why have I never seen you before? You are so old, but you still don't know the magic language?"
"Little teacher, I just started school yesterday and can't keep up with the progress, so I asked a magic apprentice to teach me the language. I'm really sorry, I'm not very smart at my age, and it may cause trouble to you, little teacher."
"My name is Emily, I'm a fire apprentice, I'm thirteen years old, and I've been a magic apprentice for seven years, so there won't be any problem with teaching the language."
"My name is Kashen, a professional hunter. I only have psychic talent but no elemental affinity, so I can't become a magician. I studied animal taming to control Warcraft mounts and pets. In theory, I am a lifelong apprentice. I will leave after completing animal taming. There are no other courses to learn..."
"I see, Brother Kashin, this is not a question of qualifications, I just misunderstood. Shall we start teaching now?"
"Don't worry, little teacher, can you please take a look at the books I prepared?" He took out the literacy book and dictionary.
Emily took a look and said with a smile: "I also use this set of teaching materials, they are all the same, so Brother Kashen can teach at any time."
"Teacher Emily, are you working part-time or doing it for credits? Are you a child without a family background?"
Emily sighed and said, "As a daughter of the common people, save up money to pay for classes! This task is not bad. Ten credits can be exchanged for ten classes. Choose the most expensive one, which is worth 1,500 magic coins. So I came. Don't worry, I defeated more than 30 seniors and juniors. Don't question my language ability."
"Haha, the little girl is very confident, so let's take a class and try it first. I have learned the content of Chapter 25."
"Oh, that saves a lot of trouble. Don't start teaching from the finals and initial consonants. This task will be much easier. Come, listen to whether the accent is standard."
Miss Lillian's teaching is different from that of a professional apprentice. The pronunciation needs to be corrected. Kashin wants to learn the authentic way, so he almost starts from scratch.
Emily's body has not yet fully grown, her face is covered with freckles, and her skin is a little brown. At first glance, it is a child who was malnourished in her early years. There is no financial support in the magic academy, and she can only take tasks everywhere to solve her academic problems.
She has a sideline business of planting and owns a medicinal field, which she has been planting for five years. If she wants to harvest the crops, it will take at least ten years, and she will basically never leave the academy. Living on a medicinal field for a lifetime, even if she cannot become a magician, this life is much better than going home to be a commoner.
She didn't have any lofty ideals. It didn't matter whether she was a magician or not. As long as she could grow the medicinal fields well, her life wouldn't be too bad.
Kashin started learning the language in the courtyard, preparing to thoroughly master the art of animal taming, and began learning the language with Emily...
Royal Gardens and Tombs
On the other hand, Blainey was favored by the late king and the crown prince, and she always remembered it. When the crown prince bestowed her with the legendary staff [Eight Winds], he had a heartfelt conversation with her, so Blainey was politically loyal to the royal family.
The prince deliberately neglected treatment for his illness, which led to his early death. However, no one expected that the king and the prince would die within a month.
So after finishing his work, Blaney wore plain clothes and went to the royal mausoleum to pay his respects. During this month of national mourning, lords from all over the country would come here to pay their respects.
Blaney stood in silence; beat drums and rang bells; presented a flower basket; read the eulogy respectfully; bowed three times to the tombstone of the wise king; relatives paid tribute; visited the sacrificial hall and paid homage to the statue of the late king.
The prince was posthumously conferred the title of king, and Blaney went through the process again as an emperor, with tears in his eyes as he recalled the kindness shown to him by the two great men when they were alive.
Then he returned to the palace and met the new emperor as a prince. In fact, this was the procedure for all the princes these days. Blaney's father had a high title, so he finished the memorial service a few days in advance and went home early.
When Blainey entered the hall, he saw a middle-aged man sitting upright in a black royal robe, which was a mourning dress. At first glance, he had a similar temperament to the prince, both of them had a literary temperament, which was completely different from the old king's military style.
Blynely Horse performed the great ceremony of king and minister: "Our king, please accept my condolences. May our king always be happy and healthy."
"No need to be polite, Baron Rossi, please take a seat."
"Thank you, my king!".
"Baron Rossi, my father has mentioned you. You are a capable young man. Please take good care of me!"
"I am overwhelmed with gratitude for the kindness of the late emperor and the honorary king. How could I have deserved this?"
"Haha, Baron Rossi did a great job in delivering the letter, causing the Mercenary Association and the Church in our country to be completely opposed and fighting each other fiercely. This is all thanks to the Baron. Although the public security in various places is chaotic, if the church can be weakened, it will be beneficial to the empire in the long run. I thank Baron Rossi."
Blaney smiled and said, "It is the church that has gone too far and offended the Mercenary Association. It really has nothing to do with me. However, when the church becomes powerful, it will be harmful to the empire. The believers only recognize the Pope and don't know who my king is. If this continues, the country will no longer be a country, and my king's power will be hollowed out. The consequences will be disastrous."
The king clenched his fists, then loosened them, ordered all the servants in the hall to leave, and closed the door...
At this time, the palace was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. The two were silent for a moment. The new king Haiwuqi stood up, swung his arms behind him, and then slowly walked down the steps and said:
"My father's untimely death completely disrupted the mental preparation of the ministers, and my ascension to the throne was a surprise in their eyes. Among the ministers, there were people from religious sects, spokesmen for the interests of princes, and representatives of large families, but no one was truly safeguarding the interests of the royal family, even the five important ministers who were members of the royal family, who only cared about their own interests. However, Grandpa Huang was able to see through everything, and he tried hard to maintain the delicate balance between them. In fact, when I ascended the throne, there was almost no one I could rely on, and the situation was very critical. If I was not careful, I might be deposed by them..."
"I believe that Your Majesty will naturally have a good plan to overcome these difficulties, so there is no need to worry too much. Moreover, I know nothing about court affairs, so it is futile for Your Majesty to ask me for strategies. However, after I leave the house, I will forget everything about today's conversation..."
"I need a group of young people to work for me. Baron Rossi, can you recommend a few to me? After the national mourning is over, I will use the conflict between the church and the mercenaries to expel the believers from the court. I hope to replace them with people who are loyal to the royal interests. Can you recommend a few capable people to me?"
"My mentor, Bayan, was born into a commoner family. He is very knowledgeable and teaches basic theories to children in the magic academy. His magic skills are mediocre. Therefore, there is no need for further studies. It would be better for him to change his path and be transferred to the court as an ordinary minister. My king will try to see if he can be of use to me first. I have lived in the academy for a long time, and I am not familiar with people who are good at governing a country. Therefore... we magicians believe in natural gods and cannot be people from the church. You can use him with confidence."
Bayan is a jack of all trades, he knows a little bit of everything and his magic skills are just average. If he studies politics for a while, he will have no problem entering the court and governing the country.
