Chapter 1033 -1030: Novel Template

“The reliance on magic has increased more and more, and I can’t tell if this situation is good or bad, with the Magic Web shrinking and the Dragon of the Magic Web sleeping, I always feel that things are not so simple… The reform of magicians needs to be expedited, and the profession of magician should be downplayed as much as possible.”

In the matter of preventing the restoration of magicians, Li Si Te and all the nobles shared the same mentality—they could rely on magicians to create equipment but would never allow them to influence the knight system.

Perhaps in the heart of knights, the ancient Moon Empire really represented the pinnacle of civilization, and people tried to attribute every achievement to it. However, when it concerned themselves, they would never allow a second Moon Empire to emerge. That was a taboo.

The great ones could be enshrined in temples.

Yet they must not truly exist in reality. The slightest hint of emergence had to be quashed!

The introduction of the Alchemy Magic Circle, following the Teleportation Magic Array, was the second piece of magic high technology mastered by the Flame Kingdom. Li Si Te both loved and was wary of this, classifying it as a top-secret national issue, and not allowing even the slightest leak—without an Archmage to guide them, the outside world could not replicate this technology.

“Brother, when Ach studies the alchemy techniques thoroughly, he always gets new inspiration for barriers. He’s going back to ponder this issue now.”

Having thrown the research topic of alchemy out of his hands, Ach was busy pondering barriers again.

“Alas, it’s clearly my cultivation system, and yet it all depends on Ach’s research… It’s hard to imagine how many detours I would have had to take along the way to develop to today’s heights if I hadn’t met Ach,” Li Si Te silently lamented, but there was nothing he could do.

Research was not his forte, and without the favor of the Power of Destiny, he was really just an ordinary person.

If he truly had outstanding talent and remarkable aptitude, he would have been thriving on Earth, and would not have died an overworked death only to transmigrate. Thus, he was very self-aware; he could brag and pretend normally, but at crucial times, he had to be clear about his own strengths and weaknesses.

Play to your strengths and avoid your weaknesses.

Ach was a research-oriented talent, responsible for solving technical problems; he was combat-oriented, in charge of charging into battle and earning merits; they complemented each other.

“My lord, Marquis Dimaria is requesting to report on his duties,” Butler Carter said softly, interrupting Li Si Te who was in deep thought in front of the piano.

“Tell him to wait in the study.”

“Yes, my lord.”

“Oh, and Mr. Carter, tell Mrs. Morson that she can stop the modifications to the Half Slope milk tea, after tasting so many new flavors, I still prefer the original taste from the beginning.”

“As you wish, my lord.” Carter bowed slightly and left the piano room.

Li Si Te’s fingers gently brushed the piano, but he had no interest in playing. It had been a long time since he had touched the piano; there were too many dragons and elves at home, leaving him stretched too thin. Specialization comes from diligence and idleness from playfulness; his piano-playing skills had now become quite rusty, no longer retaining the grace of the Piano King.

But the few piano pieces he had created were becoming increasingly widespread. Not only the noble young ladies of the Flame Kingdom often played pieces such as “For Alice,” “Castle in the Sky,” and “The Swan of Saint-Saens,” fantasizing about Li Si Te like lovelorn young girls.

In the northeastern corner of the Legendary Continent, the noble ladies and young misses of the three great kingdoms also imagined different images of Li Si Te.

Some noble young ladies thought Li Si Te was a romantic and passionate man; otherwise, how could he create such delicate and tender pieces of music?

Some matrons thought Li Si Te was a mighty and powerful man, with impressive stamina, since only such a figure deserved to be a Dragon Knight who had founded the great legacy of the Flame Kingdom.

Others imagined Li Si Te as a beast of slaughter, having killed two Dragon Knights, to say nothing of how many ordinary knights had died at his hands; how could such a person not be a beast… And yet, in the still of the night, the young ladies would often indulge in fanciful dreams of a beauty and the beast.

In the minds of most knights, Li Si Te represented a legend; a knight of an era who could become an idol to all.

Now, almost every Knight’s Novel in the three great kingdoms would use Li Si Te as a model for the protagonist, and if a novel’s hero rode only one dragon, they would be criticized to the point of doubting their life choices. In the past, encountering an elf was a thrilling point in a novel, but now, meeting a dragon had become the exhilarating moment.

Even clever novelists, relying on pure fabrication, had written many books like “The Legendary Adventures of Liszt Flame,” “A Detailed Explanation of Liszt Flame’s Dragon Riding,” “The Unspeakable Stories of Liszt Flame and Acherloides Truth,” and “The Early Life of Liszt Flame.”

These books all sold out, with one edition being reprinted after another.

Almost every young knight carried a book about Liszt, constantly inspiring themselves to become the next Liszt Flame.

Liszt’s glory had transcended national borders, and the young knights of the Eagle Kingdom worshipped him just the same.

This was indeed touching.

So when he received Dimaria Yuhua Stone in his study, one could see on the bookshelves behind him, a series of knight novels with the words “Liszt Flame”—which were quite entertaining to read during dull moments, especially some of the more risqué scenes.

“Your Majesty, this year’s Pioneer Mandate has been fully prepared. The Knight Order of the Sapphire Duchy is assembled, presided over by the Marquis of Golden Island, Roderick Gold Wheat Sheaf, with the Duke Sapphire himself leading the Sapphire Dragon.”

“And domestically?”

“It has been determined that I will serve as the supreme commander, with Count Geoffrey Begonia and Count Paris as deputy commanders, assembling ten thousand Earth Knights. This includes one Sky Knight of the Completion Level, eight Sky Knights of the Sword Saint Level, and twenty-one Sky Knights of the common level.”

“Have the specific departure time and location of the attack been decided?”

“The departure is set for October 3rd. There are two options for the attack location: Sardine Bay along the northern coastline of the Eagle Kingdom or Dense Corridor along the southern coastline. The final decision will be made when we set sail from Bull Hoof City on Iron Hoof Island.” This was to prevent intelligence leaks and preemptive defenses by the Eagle Kingdom.

The Sapphire Duchy always decided the precise attack location after setting sail for the Pioneer Mandate.

Liszt nodded, “Proceed as planned, I will secretly protect the Knight Order from Dragon Knight attacks with Marquis Emily.”

“Then I shall go and oversee the Pioneer Mandate.”

“Go ahead.”

…

As the Flame Kingdom was assembling its Knight Order, the vast coastlines of the Eagle Kingdom were swept by autumn winds and falling leaves, with all the nobles starting to feel the tension.

“It’s the season for the Sapphire Fly’s Pioneer Mandate again,” a noble sighed suddenly at a banquet, “One wonders which egg the Sapphire Fly will bite this year.”

“Given the appetite of last year’s Sapphire Fly, if it really comes here, I’m afraid all of us present will suffer.”

“What’s there to fear? If the Sapphire Fly comes, we just leave the castle and hide in the countryside… Let them plunder the castle if they want, I don’t make my living from farming anyway.”

“Hmph, as if we didn’t know that the Wild Dog Mercenary Group is your business. They plundered a town in my territory last time without following rules, capturing serfs—at which we haven’t settled the score!”

“Do you have evidence that it was the Wild Dog Mercenary Group who looted?”

“Of course, I have rats infiltrating the Wild Dog Mercenary Group!”

“Then you should interrogate this rat to see if they are worthy.”

“Enough, stop arguing. We should think about how to get through this year’s Pioneer Mandate. Unlike before, that Legendary Dragon Knight is now the true master behind the Mandate.”

Mention of the Legendary Dragon Knight suddenly quieted the nobles present.

After a long silence, a slightly drunk noble broke the quiet atmosphere: “If the Pioneer Mandate comes to us this year, we might as well not resist and just submit to the Flame Kingdom! Those smugglers always preach about the welfare and treatment in the Flame Kingdom, right? If we go there, we might even earn a share of glory!”
