"I really came from Lanika City," Lawrend answered seriously.
"Really? How come you are capable of using two elements?" Creka asked doubtfully.
"Is it odd?"
"Gaska, check his records with the Mage Guild!"
"Yes, Sir!"
Gaska was the water mage. He immediately flew downwards and headed to the Mage Guild.
The two groups floated in front of each other silently. Everyone was still wary as the other party might suddenly change their minds and attack.
"If your records say that you really were from Lanika City, I would like you to come with me to the empire."
"Why do I have to come to the empire?"
Lawrend was suspicious of him. There was a high chance that it was a trap.
"Your talent. As long as you work for the empire for a bit to cancel out the death of Logan Hui, I won't hurt you. Instead, I will protect you until you don't need it anymore," Creka said.
This was the only way Creka could think of to absolve himself from the damage caused by the death of the plant mage earlier, as Lawrend was very talented.
The Emperor will be satisfied with him and surely take him under his wings. At that time, Creka would be seen as someone who did a great merit for the empire.
No one would dare mention the death of the plant mage ever again. The plant mage was just a Grand Mage anyway.
The empire had enough resources to create another one in a few hundred years.
A talented young mage like Lawrend was worth far, far more than he was.
"What about my position as king?"
Currently, that was the most important thing to him since he had already decided to pass the kingdom to his children. All of their efforts would all be for naught if the empire took the kingdom away from him.
"About that, the previous king offered the two cities on the border of the empire to us. It will reduce the territory of the Undrasil Kingdom, but we promised to protect the Undrasil Kingdom from any threat for 100 years."
For the Bluemin Empire, slowly swallowing the land of the Undrasil Kingdom was the priority. They had already long recognized the threat that they posed.
They would use the swallowed cities to erect another kingdom that would serve as a buffer state. That way, the Undrasil Kingdom would not be able to directly attack the Imperial Capital.
If they somehow managed to cultivate an Earth Mage, the empire would have no choice but to release them from their grasp. After all, the Imperial Capital must always have an Earth Mage.
If any neighboring empires heard the news that they were hunting an Earth Mage, they would surely take that chance to capture the Imperial Capital. Do not think that a single Earth Mage could kill another Earth Mage easily.
If there were anything you could compare them to, it would be cockroaches. Earth Mages were difficult to kill because they were already beyond the normal confines of mortality.
Just their lifespan of 2,000 years says a lot.
Not to mention, the empire would lose the people's hearts if they killed the kingdom's best mage. Long ago, an empire in the far western north decided to rule with an iron fist.
It didn't end well when they killed the first Earth Mage of a kingdom. At first, it looked like there would be no retaliation.
The surrounding kingdoms suddenly became very secretive and managed to cultivate one Earth Mage each. By using the pressure created by the oppression, the talented mages of those kingdoms managed to become Earth Mages.
It was a legendary history that overturned the peace at that part of the continent. Every empire at present took note of that piece of history.
In the end, that empire was no more. The kingdoms from the surrounding empires followed those kingdoms' lead and started an even bigger empire. Currently, the far western north of the continent was home to the largest empire in the continent.
Creka especially did not want that to happen in the Undrasil Kingdom. There was an estimate that the Undrasil Kingdom only needed a catalyst, and it would evolve into an empire.
That was also one of the reasons why he needed to take Lawrend with him. If Lawrend assimilated with the empire, he would not become ambitious enough to betray them.
Instead, he would become a part of their strength. There were so many benefits that Creka doesn't even mind offending the family Logan Hui came from.
Soon, Gaska returned with a file in his hand. He passed it to Creka.
He opened it and glanced at the contents.
"A provincial city Mage Guild Master sent you to study in the capital city?" Creka asked with a raised eyebrow.
A city like Sheron Port City was called a provincial city in Creka's eyes. This capital city was the only city in the Undrasil Kingdom that was not a provincial city.
Instead, it was classified as a royal city. Each of the cities in the empire was a royal city, and the Imperial Capital was classified as an imperial city.
Of course, there were no kings ruling those cities. It was just a classification.
But that also means that each of those cities was as large and prosperous as Undrasil Kingdom's capital city.
"Yes. Guild Master Reon sent me here, so I can improve my magic and protect me from the demons," Lawrend replied honestly.
"Hm?"
Lawrend's words made Creka raise an eyebrow. He continued reading the file, and soon, surprise appeared on his face.
"The Noble Demon Aezel captured you…"
Creka turned his head and looked at Aezel, standing behind Lawrend.
"Interesting. Did she ask you to impregnate her?" Creka asked with a slight smile on his face.
As an Earth Mage from the empire, he was naturally knowledgeable about stuff like this.. The female demons use talented human males to impregnate themselves and increase the quality of their race.
