The first 'Spring Festival' of the Principality of the Mourning Wind is approaching, and it is becoming more and more festive.

However, on the same continent, the people of some countries are still in deep trouble.

This is not an exaggeration, at least, the winter and early spring of the Principality of the Howling Wind are no longer freezing to death, and no one is starving!

Ruerno put on his reading glasses, and although his hands were starting to tremble, he was still dealing with some 'work' that Charlemagne and Elba couldn't handle.

He had already resigned from the position of 'chief' according to the plan, all of this was in his plan, as long as he resigned from the position of chief, then what he did next would have nothing to do with the court mage association - now he was just an ordinary court mage!

It's like the heir he once chosen, 'Yegor'......

Now that the nobles have tasted the sweetness, they may stop for a while because they have just gained a huge profit, but after that, they will still revert to their old ways.

Ruerno is too familiar with these people, they rarely change, but when they do, they will fall uncontrollably into a deeper abyss.

More than 400 years ago, at least some of them still had 'glory', and more than 400 years later, they have nothing.

Except for 'greed' or 'greed', it is almost impossible to find any human sparkle in those nobles.

They are best at excluding dissidents, they will try to pull down someone who is nobler than them, and if that person is not under their influence, then they will resort to even dirtier means.

Now this has almost become the unspoken rule of the 'aristocracy' group - no one can be more 'noble' than this group.

It's ridiculous, but that's what the empire looks like today.

Although he didn't want to say this, Ruerno really felt that those nobles had 'rotten' blood flowing in their bodies, and although they broke away from the Kurt Kingdom, the original nobles were still the descendants of the nobles of that kingdom today.

They are nothing more than a layer of human skin, but inside they are monsters uglier than the ugliest orcs!

Looking at the documents in front of him, Rourno sighed guiltily.

Maybe he always knew, but he always pretended not to know, and didn't want to see the ugliness of those nobles, so he subconsciously avoided it......

What they have done in these centuries is so ugly, but he has turned a deaf ear...... It seems that he is also an accomplice of these people!

With a wry smile, Rourno closed the information in front of him, took off his reading glasses, and looked at the snow-white ceiling.

He was tired and wanted to go to sleep and never wake up, but unfortunately he couldn't, and although his students had woken up, he couldn't just sit back and watch the empire.

At the end of the day, he still loves this country, the country that raised him, and even if this country has many shortcomings, he still loves it deeply......

"Gary. The old man called out to his assistant.

The mage, who had been waiting outside the door, pushed the door and entered, bowing respectfully to the old man who was sitting on the chair with his back to him, "Teacher......"

"Go and put ...... Donald called. ”

Gary heard the exhaustion in his teacher's words, and frowned unwillingly, unable to bear to sigh.

"Yes, teacher......"

The magic energy furnace is by no means something to study, but just a while ago, the Principality of Sorrowful Wind released the news of a magic circle called [Energy Storage], and not only that, but they also directly announced the [Harmony] circle and the [Harmony Technique].

This made Ruerno feel that the world was impermanent, and that they had thought that the head maid would hide these things, but in fact, they were just narrow-minded.

Because they are narrow-minded, they think so, because they themselves will do this, they will treat others as their own, and they think that the head maid will do this.

Unexpectedly, just a few years later, the head maid not only disclosed the [Harmony Technique], but also the [Energy Storage] Circle, which promoted the development of the magic energy machinery in the entire continent.

Their empire's 'floatship' project also benefited from this, and if it weren't for the fact that the head maid had released so much information, perhaps it would have taken them longer to develop the technology of the floatship, and even Ruerno might not have been able to see the Empire's first floatship appear in this world.

It was the 'vote' of the head maid, and when she announced those things, Ruerno even remembered the expressions of those mages other than the court mages at that time.

They were all about to burst their eyes out, for they did not believe that the head maid could be so broad-minded, just as he had been......

What they don't know is that this is just the beginning.

"The first issue of Magic should be next month...... Rourno muttered as he heard a knock on the door behind him.

The old man chuckled lightly and shouted out the door, "Come in!"

Donald Mueller came in, a little thinner than before, with a stubble on his face and deep-set eyes, and he looked like he hadn't had a good rest in a long time.

Seeing him like this, Ruerno couldn't help frowning, and asked in a deep voice: "What's the matter? What did I teach you before, have you forgotten it now? As a mage, rest is very important, even if the progress is lagging behind, unless it is an explosion of inspiration, you can't work and study for a long time! Have you forgotten all this?"

"No, teacher, I don't dare to forget ......"

Donald raised his tired eyes, saw Ruerno's old and abnormal face, saw the old age spots on his face, couldn't help but tremble, and said, "It's just, it's just ......"

"I'm not dead yet!"

Looking at Donald's appearance, Ruerno was angry.

What's going on with all of his students? All of them look like this, and he's just 'dying' when he's not yet dead!

He can still live for a few years, or even more than ten years!

"The legend is not as fragile as you think!" Ruerno glared at Donald and said angrily, "The head of the legendary warrior can grow another one if it falls off, although I am not a warrior, my vitality is much stronger than you think!I am dying, but I have at least ten years to live, understand?"

"Yes, understood......" Donald replied with a reluctant nod.

He didn't dare to make his teacher angry anymore, for fear that his teacher would be angry with him like an ordinary old man.

After glaring at Donald for a long time, Rourno took a breath, calmed his anger, and turned to ask with concern: "How's the development of the float boat?

Donald pursed his lips and said, "Now, it's just the energy system......"

Energy System ......

Hearing this phrase, Ruerno subconsciously frowned.

After Charlemagne became the 'chief', he didn't have so much free time to study the magic energy furnace, and now the research and development of the magic energy furnace mainly relied on Elba alone, and the progress was much slower.

However, with a high-end technology like the 'Magic Energy Furnace', it is clear that the Principality of Sorrowful Wind will not teach them easily.

"How are you doing with the [Energy Storage] Circle?"

Since they can't start with the Magic Energy Furnace, then they will solve this problem in the other direction.

As long as there is enough energy in reserve, it can support the floatship to fly from one town to another, and from one supply point to the next.

Although this will be very troublesome, there is no way to do it!

The Ogordon Empire has also begun to develop rapidly, and the Duchy of Sorrow does not need to think about transportation problems at all, and their empire naturally cannot lag behind.

When dealing with the problem of the nobles, you can't let the development of the empire lag behind others, otherwise it will be difficult to catch up later!

Donald hesitated for a moment and nodded slightly, "It's going well!"
