…
The excited King Grav did not waste any time after the meeting. With the help of Gulliver, he immediately provided the materials needed to construct the poles. In two days' time, they finished making a small factory that would produce fiber optic cables imbued with a protective array to prevent the beguiling stone energy to seep out and affecting anyone outside the sphere of the virtual helmet.
Shin Jiao would not dare introduce the immortal land virtual helmet in this place at this time because; it might affect the souls of the people in this place.
Right now, there are like two planes of existence, the mortal world, and the immortal world. How could immortals associate themselves with mortals, right?
And so, he decided to develop such a thing to further enhance technology, skills, and more in this world.
Plus, he could also use fiber optics to create the 1st ever internet in this place.
"I still have a lot of things to do yet so little time…" he thought.
As time passes by, 2 days left before the Mystique Shop would enter the capital city. Shin Jiao has already prepared everything, the power lines, the data cables, and the servers are already set up. If this is back on earth, this would take months, or even years to finish. But with the help of his knowledge, the magic in this place, and abundant mana, it only takes them days to finish the project.
"Your majesty… this is the report from our financial bureau." A servant said while handing the king a letter.
When the king heard this, he just took a glance at the letter and smirked.
"Short-sighted people will not grow and believe until they see the result. Let them be… Hehe… I can't wait for their expression, once the project will be in full bloom… The capital will be filled with life at last…" he muttered.
The servant showed a hint of understanding. He is always beside the king and has learned of the plan. Although he felt skeptical at first just like the rest of the king's sons, daughters, and subjects, he soon realized the gravity of the deal the king made with that young man.
In his mind, the word 'monopoly' is shown in big letters. The king made a deal with that young man with a 10% share. But that simple 10% share is going to make the royal family one of the ric.h.e.s.t families in the capital.
The reason for this is the influence that this new technology would bring to the kingdom. In the Inner kingdom alone, there are many cities, towns, and villages. One could not imagine how much revenue that would be producing.
And so, the king is suddenly bombarded with one complaint after another, while the noble houses suddenly grab this chance to also complain to the king.
They heard that the king is collaborating with the enemy, so they launch protests.
If the noble houses continue to provoke him, he would take away their power. If they are willing to fight, then the king would use all of what he has to make sure that he would die with them. Seeing the resolve of the king, the noble houses became silent.
They did not expect that the once silent and subservient king would suddenly turn hostile towards them. This is out of their expectation.
The noble houses dare not engage in such a troublesome battle. They still need to protect their assets, so they would not face the royal family. Instead, they set their sight on the merchant group that would be entering the capital tomorrow.
They knew of the influence of that merchant group in the outside world and knew that the king is fighting against them because he has the backing of that group now.
And so, the noble houses conveyed a meeting.
…
Somewhere in the capital, inside a dark blue ten-story mage tower
"Hong Fao, what would be our action against that merchant group and the royal family?" the new patriarch of the Farson family said with a serious expression.
Rowan Farson was called the new patriarch of the Farson family after Shin Jiao beheaded their former patriarch. He is extremely afraid of that guy as he saw how strong he was when he was besieged by their family's soldiers.
Hong Fao turned silent, but he already has a plan in mind.
"I agree that we could not touch the royal family at this point in time, and also that merchant group has many powerful people. That young guy named Si Ji along could already create such chaos… so we can only fight them using their own technology against them." Hong Fao said with a smirk.
"What do you mean?"
"Haha… I have already contacted the mage towers that are allied with our noble houses. I have anticipated this to happen, so a few months ago, they are already doing some research on the Mystique Shop technology. I heard that there are breakthroughs happening, so we all just have to wait for the good news."
"Haha… That is a good plan. If your plan succeeded, we can, not only grab a portion of their market, we might even be able to use their own technology against them. I heard that those wands and staves coming from that shop are powerful… Hahaha…" one of the patriarchs said with a chuckle.
"I am also planning to use those to make a trap for them. Let them grow and be smug for the time being, they will know the consequence of offending the noble houses later on… Hahaha…" Hong Fao said with a sly smile on his face.
…
Meanwhile, Shin Jiao has returned to the Alto Magus Academy, this time as a representative of the Mystique Shop.
Inside the academy principal's room, a middle-aged woman sitting behind a desk is currently reviewing some of the doc.u.ments on her table.
As of this moment, the school is facing a troublesome matter. They are running out of money.
Although it is a prestigious school and has many rich students studying in the school. The cost of experiments and materials needed for the students to grow is huge. If the trend goes on, then in only a year, their school will already be in deficit. Thought she could alter this if she lay off some of the teachers and do budget cuts, yet that would also affect the standard of their school.
So this huge problem is making her feel a bit troubled. Before, the school could manage with the help of the kingdom, the mage towers, and large donations from the noble houses. But ever since that day when a student of theirs caused a huge commotion in the capital, everything stopped except for the help from the kingdom. Yet that is not enough.
"I think it would be better if the school become self-sufficient. But who would dare hire a newly graduate mage without good knowledge and experience?" she muttered to herself.
While thinking as such, she suddenly heard knocking outside the door.
"Madam Principal, you have a guest." Her secretary said after opening the door.
From behind her, a handsome young man walks in.
When the principal saw the young man, a slight frown appears on her face.
"Good morning, Principal Wise…" Shin Jiao greeted.
In front of him, he saw a middle-aged woman wearing a dark blue mage robe. She may be a 40-year-old lady, but her face looks like she is only in her early 30's. She has a curvy body that her mage robe could not even hide, and a scholarly aura around her with her silver-framed glasses. Her dark brown hair is tied in a bun and her only accessories are her earrings with two red gems.
"Umn… Please sit down… To what do I owe the p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e, student Si Ji…" Principal Wise said with an aura of a leader.
Shin Jiao showed a polite gesture as he bowed his head and sits on a chair.
"I have come to offer you something." Shin Jiao said with a smile.
"Hmm… You have caused my school a great amount of trouble, you know that right?" she said as she sits back to her chair behind the desk.
"Well, I admit of that… so I am here to offer you a solution." Shin Jiao handed her a folder which suddenly appears out of nowhere.
The eyes of Principal Wise glowed for a moment when she saw that. She knew that this fellow is an expert in arrays, so she is not that surprised anymore.
As she received the folder, she still has a doubtful expression on her face. However, after reading for a while, her expression slowly turned into disbelief, and then into astonishment.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
