Fireworks bloom in the night sky.
Observe the landscape that first appeared in this world.
Everyone at the banquet couldn't help but be captivated by the sight, and they all exclaimed what a beautiful sight it was. Leon definitely had a good relationship with the Princess.
"Leon-chan~ Leon-chan~!!"
Agnes was so moved that she began to cry. As she called Leon's name, she threw herself into his arms and cried loudly.
How lucky for me to have a brother like that.
But it's a shame that he's your younger brother.
"This kid is really..."
Not far away, Sylphine was also crying.
She wiped the corners of her eyes with a tissue, and her love for Leon became even stronger.
She thought to herself that he was a good son, supporting her daughter's dreams, making her dreams come true, and now even helping her daughter to be recognized.
I really don't know how to thank him. If Leon could have been born 20 years earlier...
Everyone was applauding.
Just as Leon requested, thunderous applause sounded at the banquet. It was only at that moment that everyone realized the incredible achievements that this princess, who had always been undervalued by them, had achieved.
She can't use magic.
But she created something beyond magic.
Thinking of the ridicule they had done to Anis in the past, now they felt their cheeks becoming hot and being overcome with shame.
But there is still someone who is fighting needlessly.
"Are magical items better than magic? How can such a thing be possible? They are obviously just imitations. How can they be compared to real nobles like us who can use magic!"
The president of the Ministry of Magic clenched his fists and spoke forcefully, like a roaring beast.
In their eyes, magical props are heretical and evil things. How can civilians use magic?
What a joke!
Magic is a gift from God!
It is a symbol of your noble status!
It's their confidence that keeps them superior!
It is your irreplaceable authority!
Now they are asked to share this supreme authority with a group of civilians? It's simply irrational!
"Hey~ Stupid, selfish, short-term, blind. It's precisely because of people like you, who are boring and incompetent but greedy for power, that it's difficult for our kingdom to progress." Leon shook his head and sighed.
"Your Highness Leon, what you said is true…"
"I won't let you stop the progress of the times, old things that can't keep up with the times, just make way for me, tonight is that moment."
Leon said and snapped his fingers.
In the next second, a woman in black appeared on the scene.
She holds a magic sword in her right hand, a magic shield in her left hand, combat boots on her feet, and many other magical props.
"Let your strength speak for itself, Ministry of Magic. If you can defeat it equipped with magical items and your proud magic, I will let you go."
"What did you say...?"
"This should have been done a long time ago. Let magic and magical items compete head on. Then the winner will remain and the loser will be left in the dust."
Leon brings the most primitive rules.
The weak eat the strong, the strong are respected and the fittest survive.
This is the original law that no one can question. It is not a law made by humans, but a law made by the world.
"No, no! I won't compete! I won't compete!"
The nobles from the Ministry of Magic suddenly panicked.
Compare this to a hammer!
The battle with the dragon completely proved the power of magical items.
The magic that the nobles were proud of failed to break the dragon's resistance, but the unfinished magical accessories defeated the dragon's breath and destroyed all of its scales.
If you compete, you will definitely lose.
And if they lose in public, the majesty of the Ministry of Magic will be destroyed from now on, and magical items will replace magic from now on.
He simply couldn't bear the consequences and instinctively refused the duel. However...
"You have no right to say no."
Leon had no intention of giving him a chance to escape.
He raised his hand again, and several knights and burly men suddenly appeared, directly lifted the president of the Ministry of Magic and threw him into the makeshift ring.
"Let strength decide the winner, that's the order."
"No, no, I agree..."
"Don't give him a chance to surrender, beat him to death."
"Yes, Your Highness."
What followed was a series of screams.
Although all the nobles present felt uncomfortable, they still watched this duel between magic and magical item with pleasure... No, it must be said that it was a one-sided fight.
The normally aloof President of the Ministry of Magic was being pushed to the ground by a girl and was being hammered hard. Even though he tried his best to release magic, he couldn't break through the defense.
Ancient magic was crushed before advanced magical tools, and the Ministry of Magic fell completely from its pedestal.
......a few minutes later...
The president of the Ministry of Magic was taken away after being beaten so badly that not even his own mother would recognize him.
In fact, even if you don't consider the magical props, this person has no chance of winning, because the girl in black in the battle is a member of the Night raid.
"Very well, Nyu, step aside."
"Yes sir."
The girl bowed respectfully, then disappeared and walked away, as if she had never appeared at that banquet before.
Although she appears to be just an ordinary beautiful girl, her strength is among the best in the garden, and she has been recognized by Eta in the past.
She can show up at Leon's castle basically every month, which shows that she's actually pretty good.
After all, the only person who can serve as a servant in Leon Castle is the girl who is in the top 20 of the monthly simulation battles in Night Raid.
However, although it seems like he is bullying the little one, the result is predestined, and Nyu is just using the magic item's ability without any skills.
Leon clapped his hands to bring everyone back to their senses.
After witnessing such a one-sided crush, no one in the Palettia Kingdom would dare to look down on magical items anymore, and everyone had admiration in their eyes.
Leon nodded with satisfaction. That was the effect he wanted, and so he continued to drop bombs.
"Now that the result has been decided, the Ministry of Magic's resources will be reallocated starting next month, and there's one more thing... I've decided to recruit talent."
"Your Highness, are you recruiting talents?"
"That's right, regardless of identity or status, as long as you are capable and willing to join my command, you must come and accept my test. After all, I am 'shorthanded' now."
"!!!"
The eyes of all the nobles present shone.
Yes, this prince actually "doesn't have many" helpers and he is, without a doubt, the future king.
Thinking of this, their hearts felt warm.
Leon smiled when he saw this, picked up a glass of wine, sat on the highest luxury chair and said:
"Okay, let's continue the banquet. Let me continue to play music and dance."
(End of chapter)
First, I want to apologize, I completely forgot to tell you on Friday that I wouldn't be able to update on Saturday and Sunday.
The reason? Well, those who have been with me for a while will probably remember an event from last year, the death of a close friend.
After hesitating for a long time, I finally decided to keep his legacy going, now I am in charge of a program in my city where we help children with autism, and and we teach parents how to deal with it, Saturday and Sunday are the days when I visit homes to see the situation, give advice, among other things.
Since I'm going to spend the whole day busy with these things, I'm going to have very little time to write the chapters of all the fics in these two days.
Therefore, I want to let you know that TETK, Re: Evolution System, TG, MMS, MLS and One Piece: New Luffy,will not be updated on these days.
However, after thinking about it, I decided that with the little time I'll have free in these two days, I could finally move forward with that Pokémon fic.
So finally, after a long time, I'll be returning with a Pokémon fic, but it will only be updated on Saturday and Sunday.
Give me some power stones there you go~😉
