Chapter 477 Seek common ground while reserving differences!
The Principality of Idar was of course aware of the arrival of Archmage Gran Galvin.
And Gran Galvin himself already knew that the Principality of Idar knew of his arrival.
only……
Both Gran Galvin and the Principality of Idar tacitly refrained from pointing it out.
After passing through the Idar Customs, the students from the Kingdom of Cecil rushed to the campus as soon as possible, while Wizard Gran Galvin found a hotel that looked quite comfortable on Warner Street.
For most people, everything about the Principality of Idar is fascinating.
But for Glenn Galvin…
The magic street lamps standing on both sides of the road, those lights that dotted the night and the starry sky, seemed to emphasize to him again and again a point that he found difficult to accept - the Idar School might be right! As an important supporter and practitioner of the Iren School, Mage Gran Galvin had a very loud reputation throughout the continent.
He optimized the methods of activating various spells and turned several theoretical achievements of the Iren School into reality. He was not only a great man in the eyes of wizards, but also a guest of honor in the eyes of many nobles.
But……
Although he enjoyed a high reputation in the Iren School, and although he had been proud of his achievements countless times,
But when he saw the shining street lights in front of him, the bicycles passing by on the street, and the magic car that occasionally passed by him...
Glenn Galvin could clearly feel that the theoretical viewpoints of the Ihlen School, to which he had always adhered, might be facing the most severe challenge since its inception!
Even though the Iren School is regarded by most mages as the mainstream school of magic on the continent, its influence is limited to the mage world.
On the other hand, the Idar School, which was born in the eastern part of the continent, affects the entire society and everyone living on this land!
No matter nobles or commoners,
As long as he lives in the Principality of Idar, he will definitely have some connection with the Idar School and enjoy the research results of the Idar School!
so……
Even Grand Master Gran Galvin could not deny that the Idar School had opened a new door for the study and application of magic, and had taken a path that had never been imagined! But Gran Galvin was troubled by...
He didn't know whether this was right or wrong, he didn't know whether this was the right path or the wrong one...
…
A slightly cool sea breeze rushed in from the window, and bright lights illuminated the night sky.
After a series of knocks on the door,
When Glenn Galvin finally opened the door to his room,
A familiar yet unfamiliar face finally caught the eyes of this highly respected wizard.
"Is it you?"
After a moment's silence, Glenn Galvin snorted coldly and his expression changed.
Arnel, who was outside the door, didn't care. He just smiled and said, "Master Galvin, don't you want to invite me in?"
Master Galvin did not answer, but he did not close the door or refuse either. He just turned around and walked into the room.
Arnel didn't care about this at all. He followed Master Galvin into the room.
There's nothing I can do. After all, I was a little too harsh at that time.
"I'll put the food down first and let you have a taste of my cooking."
As Arnel spoke, he raised the two bags he was holding.
One bag contained two huge snow crabs, and the other bag contained top-quality whiskey from Mole Village.
"As you wish..."
Glenn Galvin just glanced at him indifferently, then sat on the sofa in the living room.
only……
Just before Arnel entered the restaurant, he suddenly turned around and added, "The thing you're sitting on is called a sofa, and it was also produced by the magic industry established by the Idar School."
Glenn Galvin: …
…
After a long time,
When Anel brought two plates of steamed snow crab to the table, Wizard Glenn Galvin, who was walking slowly towards him, couldn't help but look slightly grim.
Although he had lived in the imperial capital of St. Lawrence for a long time and was born in the Kingdom of Cecil on the west coast of the continent, he was very unfamiliar with this kind of pine crab that originated from the depths of Merlin Bay.
after all……
Although Master Gran Galvin is not a nobleman, he has been more or less influenced by aristocratic etiquette.
And things like crabs...
Its strange appearance alone is enough to make nobles and wizards stay away from it.
"I'm not kidding, it's actually really delicious! Our Lord the Duke loves this stuff!"
Arnel pulled off a cooked crab leg with force, and without paying any attention to Wizard Galvin beside him, he just continued introducing it to himself.
Under the hard shell is the delicious white crab meat, which is tender and delicious. For Arnel...the unique flavor of the snow crab is simply indescribable!
However, Glenn Galvin only glanced at the food he had never tried before looking at Arnel who was feasting on it. He said in a slightly hoarse voice, "You are now... a great wizard?"
Hearing this, Arnel couldn't help but pause what he was doing. After swallowing the food in his mouth, he nodded seriously and calmly.
Although Bruno was the founder of the Idar School, he was not willing to make these things known to everyone, so most of the time, Arnel was the representative of the Idar School who was pushed to the front by Bruno.
As the research on magic circles and the exploration of magical technology became more and more in-depth, Anel's control over magic power and the improvement of his mental strength became more and more obvious.
In Bruno's opinion, the mages in this world can truly achieve the achievement of "invincible academic master".
Because whether it is the depiction of magic arrays or the exploration of magical technology, the mage's mental power will be enhanced, and the mage's understanding and control of magic will achieve a qualitative leap.
This method is obviously more demanding in terms of the wizard's experience and requirements than simply practicing casting spells!
then,
Through day after day of exploration and research, Arnel was promoted!
In just over three years,
The Idar School allowed him to soar from a seemingly ordinary wizard apprentice to the sky, completing the entire process from quantitative change to qualitative change and becoming the first great wizard of the Principality of Idar!
If it were an ordinary person, he probably wouldn't be able to see Arnel's realm.
But Gran Galvin is not an ordinary person. After all, he has stayed in the realm of the great wizard for many years, and his control over magic power is far beyond the reach of ordinary people!
so……
Although at the beginning, he just had a stern face and looked cold and distant.
But in reality, a turbulent wave had already been set off in Glen Galvin's heart!
Arnel Blood was once his student, so Master Galvin knew very well the qualifications and talents of this young man.
In his opinion, it would be impossible for Arnel to reach the level of a great wizard in his lifetime.
Even if you want to become a wizard, it will probably take at least several decades of accumulation and luck.
However……
Archmage! How long has it been?
When he saw this former student again, Anel had become a great wizard!
A strong man of this level would definitely be a well-known figure even if he were placed on the entire continent!
That is why, although Grant Galvin already had a definite answer in his heart, he still couldn't help asking.
How did he do it? With the Idar School? It had been a long time since Glenn Galvin had been so surprised and out of control.
"I was just promoted not long ago, and I still can't compare with Master Galvin."
Although Arnel's words revealed humility and respect, at this moment, Galvin's face still turned pale.
after all……
When I last saw Arnel, I was his teacher and often reprimanded and lectured him. But now, without my guidance, Arnel's strength has improved by leaps and bounds. In such a short time, he has reached the same level as me! "Master Galvin, try it too. It's actually quite good!"
Arnel seemed to ignore the embarrassment on Galvin's face and pointed at the snow crab on the plate:
"This is a specialty of the Principality of Idar. Many nobles and wealthy businessmen are vying to buy it!"
After hesitating for a moment, Glenn Galvin finally said nothing, but followed Arnel's example and opened the back shell of the snow crab.
Even though he still felt a little unhappy in his heart, Arnel today is no longer the same person he was before.
Besides,
Long before arriving in the Principality of Idar, Glenn Galvin had already heard about the preciousness and rarity of this deep-sea crab.
The main reason why I have never tasted it is that I feel that it is impossible to eat it in a manner that is consistent with my etiquette and decency. After all... I have to eat it.
But now, with Anel leading the way and being in his own guest room, Master Galvin's burden and worries were naturally lightened a lot.
The orange-red crab roe is crystal clear, and the snow-white crab meat is as delicate as silk.
The feeling of melting in the mouth almost made Master Galvin's taste buds explode and spiral to heaven! For the first time, this master, who was over 50 years old, realized that there was such a delicious thing in the world?
Without the need for any seasoning or combination of ingredients, such delicious and fresh food was enough to make him forget the unhappiness and embarrassment in his previous heart.
After having a good meal and a few drinks, Arnel wiped his hands with a paper towel beside the table and suddenly said, "Master Galvin..."
"Um?"
"Putting aside the position of the Iren School, do you really think... that the path taken by the Idar School is a wrong path in the field of magic?"
At this moment, Arnel's eyes seemed to sparkle with a gleam of brilliance, and he looked at his former mentor very seriously.
Hearing this,
Glenn Galvin actually wanted to nod, but his true thoughts deep in his heart ultimately prevented him from giving an answer that went against his conscience.
Almost a week had passed since he first set foot in the Principality of Idar and now Arnel's visit.
During this week, he did not go to Idar City, nor to Sorenburg, nor to any other place in this land. Glen Galvin just kept wandering in the Merlin District.
He had walked on Warner Street and seen the night scene of the Merlin District with his own eyes; he had also been at the port pier and heard the sound of steam ships.
He saw with his own eyes the industrial products produced by the magic industry, and also saw with his own eyes the ordinary civilians who operated the magic machines.
besides,
Gran Galvin even followed the crowd to the Idar Royal Exchange on the south bank of the Idar River, and in the exchange, he saw the constantly changing numbers displayed on the magic crystal panel.
What he encountered and saw during these days also gave him a deeper understanding of the Idar School:
"The core of the research of the Iren School is to enable mages to have a simpler and more efficient way of casting spells; and the core of the research of the Idar School seems to be the popularization and widespread application of magic?"
"You see it very clearly and from the right angle."
Arnel nodded and continued, "In that case, why can't we seek common ground while reserving differences?"
"Seek common ground while reserving differences?"
"That's right! You are one of the top wizards in the Iren School, and you have a very deep understanding and knowledge of magic. Although the Idar School was born not long ago, it also has unique insights and attempts on the application and popularization of magic. There is actually no conflict between the two!"
"Mr. Glenn Galvin, although I personally have reservations about your coming, I would like to invite you to serve as a distinguished professor at Idar Public University on behalf of His Excellency Bruno Stuart, Duke of Idar."
"What?"
This time, Glenn Galvin was really shocked.
However, Arnel continued without any pause or hesitation: "Nowadays, some schools of mages are not concerned about the future of magic and mages, but whether their own magical theories are the so-called orthodox 'magic'."
"To the Idar people, this is simply ridiculous and stupid!"
"Let's not talk about anything else. The secret obstruction of the Church of Light has caused the concentration of magic power in the western part of the empire to drop sharply. This should be a fact you know, right?"
"I just want to ask one question..."
Arnel looked into Glenn Galvin's eyes:
"Except for the Idar School, who else can take out the endless supply of magic power from the magic well? And which school can purposefully transmit magic power to a specific location?"
"this……"
For a moment, Glenn Galvin felt speechless.
But Arnel did not intend to stay here any longer. He just gave one last reminder before leaving:
"Master Galvin, please think about this carefully."
"If the Church of Light continues to grow, the Principality of Idar can still sail out to sea and have a way out, but you and the Church of Light will fight to the death..."
"The Idar School may be the only option that can change all this!"
