The Magic Queen, seated on her throne, gave Rita, who was standing beside Ron, a deep look!

It can unleash such divine magic!

Could it be?

Perhaps it is, or perhaps it isn't, but the outcome has no impact on Queen Kofi.

Queen Kofi did not explicitly state the possibility of divine beings, but instead announced the rewards for Tabitha and Ron after they had risen.

"Tabitha is hereby appointed as a Viscount of the Empire and the Kingdom of Ron. I have heard that you are very interested in the study of magic, so this Soul Stone obtained from the Mag ruins is hereby entrusted to you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty..."

"Thanks……"

The court ladies-in-waiting presented Tabitha and Ron with the appropriate items.

The seal of the Lady of the House was handed over to Tabitha, meaning that even if Tabitha did not inherit the title of Duke, she would still be an Imperial Viscount.

The Ducal family of Tabesa is a large family with many members, so at least there is no need to worry about the issue of succession.

Moreover, according to the imperial noble inheritance system, if Tabesa still inherits the title of Imperial Duke, the viscount title can be given to the rest of the ducal family, or to another second son or daughter of the family, which can also be considered as the family expanding to have two titles.

This situation is especially common during wartime, as having multiple siblings can result in multiple titles and territories, which is quite advantageous.

In some stingy kingdoms, the situation is different; they can only designate one person to inherit the title and cannot pass it on to a relative. These kingdoms are ultimately a minority.

Ron accepted the Soul Stone from the palace maid, which he had obtained from the Mag Ruins. He thought of the City of Suspended Light outside and decided to study it carefully later.

Queen Kofi, seeing that the reward had been completed, inquired about Ron's fireworks magic item.

"Viscount Ron, how did you come up with this idea?"

Ron pondered for a moment and said, "It's because when I went to the Continental Academy Exchange Tournament back then, I had the opportunity to witness the Elemental Tide, so I wanted to try to recreate that beauty!"

The empress's indifferent expression suddenly showed a hint of emotion: "Restore the elemental tides, Viscount of the Kingdom, your idea is truly peculiar!"

I can't exactly reveal the reincarnated person's past, can I? This excuse I've come up with is just right.

"Your Majesty, everything has its good and bad sides. Since the elemental tides can destroy our city, why not use them to destroy our enemies!"

As expected, the Empress showed a rare expression of approval. (￣??￣??)

Looking closely at the Magic Queen's rare change in expression, Ron could also sense the Queen's human side; after all, she was a mother of many children.

The mature and noble empress was very concerned about methods to protect her people.

Compared to the Elf Queen, the Magic Queen gave Ron a more welcoming feeling.

Indeed, it is difficult for the elves and humans to completely let down their guard.

"..."

"..."

Afterwards, Ron and Queen Kofi discussed some conditions for artificial elemental tides, spatial systems, the causes of elemental disorder, ejection, time, distance, and so on.

On the contrary, Tabitha became a spectator, while Vivian, Uncle Arno, and the others barely dared to look at Queen Kofi.

After a while, the matter was settled.

Ron felt that Queen Kofi should be a qualified ruler, so he offered what he had gained.

A magical item, the Magic Crystal Cannon!

"Your Majesty, please look. This magical artifact was discovered by me and Prince Wu Lai. Studying the magic crystal cannon further and combining it with the magic crystal vehicle should produce remarkable results!"

The Empress was slightly surprised: "Oh, bring it here, let me see it!"

The magic crystal cannon was taken upstairs.

The magic crystal vehicle Ron was referring to was, of course, the kind that flies in the sky. Although the current magic crystal vehicle can hardly be called a war machine, its features, such as turning and acceleration, are still unsatisfactory.

But what about the future? The Magic Crystal Car will eventually unleash its war potential in future versions.

And the magic crystal cannon... along with a host of magical items, were placed together.

If our predecessors have left things for us to use, why should we study alone? Collaborative research is the only way to achieve the greatest progress.

If possible, Ron would also like all countries to open up their respective territories' ruins, allowing adventurers from multiple countries to venture together, obtain artifacts from the ruins, conduct joint research, and share the results...

Unfortunately, ideals are often grand, but reality is harsh! ╮(﹀_﹀”)╭

Ron doesn't know about others, but he'll start with himself! The premise is that his partners are trustworthy, and after spending some time with the Magic Queen, he should be able to trust her.

Trust your own judgment, make decisive choices, or you'll only make things worse.

Soon, after studying the magic crystal cannon for a while, the Queen suddenly became more interested in Ron.

“Viscount Ron, I understand more and more why you are the neutral pope.”

This is the first time the other party has pointed out Ron's identity as the Pope!

The goddess of music and the goddess of water were originally neutral deities.

Keep your eyes down and your mind at ease. If the other person calls you the Pope, just pretend you didn't hear it. It's nothing, since he's here as a nobleman this time.

After a while, the Queen indeed stopped talking about it and simply said, "Viscount Ron, what do you want to say?"

"Your Majesty, we present these magical artifacts and hope that the Empire and Sandy Territory will study them together. The combined elven delegations from both sides will account for more than a third of the elven race's research talent. With the addition of the Empire's human mages, the era of magical war will arrive even sooner."

It's all for the future.

Since we've come all this way to the Empire, of course we have to give it a try.

Speaking only of the elven delegation from Sandy Territory, using this as a highlight of their cooperation shows that they are still aware of their own territory's limitations.

Before the Queen could answer, Ron continued, "Regarding the cooperation with Sandy Territory, we can now explain the progress of Sandy Territory's magical capabilities to the Empire, including magic crystal vehicles, magical printing, and magical..."

The various research projects left even Queen Kofi speechless.

There's no way around it; the magical civilization always bears some resemblance to Ron's past life, so his territory naturally has these research projects!

The Carlo Magic Empire is not incapable; it's just that its research hasn't yet fully developed into a systematic approach.

Ron later talked about magical communication, magical transmission, and so on...

There are so many projects, some of which, like the one involving Sandy's territory in cooperation with the elves, haven't even been researched yet!

Finally, after listening for a while, Queen Kofi was completely moved.

Why did Sandy Territory produce only one Ron, while their Carlo Magic Empire didn't have one?

Originally, the intelligence gathered by the Imperial spies was enough to warrant Empress Kofi's attention. It turns out, many are under investigation! And some are almost finished.

This…this…

He looked at Ron with a strange expression.

"Viscount Ron, well, our Empire has decided to cooperate. How about Viscount Ron considers becoming a multinational noble?"

Ron said tactfully, "No, no, the noble status of the Kingdom of Gil will suffice."

They might interact with other forces in the future, so they don't want to be nobles of the Empire!

There have actually been a few nobles from multiple countries who held multiple noble titles throughout history...

Alright, Ron still brought up the significance of magical research with the Queen, like magical printing. Once it's accelerated, low-level spellbooks will be dirt cheap if you're willing to put in the effort, and it would be incredibly convenient for promoting the name of the gods, wouldn't it?

It also has revolutionary significance in areas such as magical communication and transmission.

...

Tabitha, standing to the side, gradually froze, and unconsciously whispered, "Um, Ron..."

"Don't speak yet, be quiet for a while," Ron said in a low voice, just as he had been subconsciously.

Immediately, Tabitha had no choice but to remain silent, with only one thought in her mind: This time, seeing the Queen is just to receive a reward, isn't it?

Ron has suddenly made it sound like the envoy is proposing cooperation again. If he had known beforehand that these things would be discussed, such as the ceremony upon arrival, wouldn't he have considered it?

Noble ladies! They emphasize the facade of nobility. In Ron's view, it's incredibly troublesome for an envoy to formally meet the Queen. Besides, Ron, as a viscount of the kingdom, rarely has the opportunity to meet the Queen.

Now that we've seen it, pragmatism comes first.

Empress Kofi observed the scene unfolding below, but she remained unconcerned. Instead, she was concerned about Tabitha's behavior and wondered if she should speak to Ron later about the meeting with the Imperial Princess...

This could cause Ron several potential problems.

Fortunately, the meeting is still ongoing.

Finally, it was Empress Kofi's turn to talk about the empire's research and development.

"The Sky Fortress, the Suspended Light, the Imperial Floating City Project, will take the initiative to attack the Vita Continent many years later."

Beyond the continent of Oran, on another overseas continent, the continent of Vita, it was defeated in the last Abyss War, but not completely. The Oran side remains intact, but the Vita side…

The Queen readily agreed; apparently, she wanted to bring Ron onto the war machine!
