Elden Ring, but with Wind Spirit Moon Shadow

Chapter 239 From now on, this place will be called Hogwarts

Bai Shi asked the magicians who had surrendered earlier to come over and clean up the ground.

I began to think about my future plans for the magic academy.

The remaining ordinary magicians can stay and continue studying in the academy and be responsible for teaching in the future.

Although the top leaders could not stay, there were still many elite magicians from each classroom left, and they were all quite powerful.

What Teacher Se Lian said before made sense. Although they were the magicians who chose to betray the royal family of Kalia and had a criminal record, they were much stronger and more useful than those magicians who were driven away.

From now on, the management of the Magic Academy will be handed over to Teacher Serlian, and then some magicians from the town of Selia will be assigned to be in charge of management. The Magic Academy will then be completely under control.

These elite magicians in each classroom act as teachers, imparting the knowledge learned in the previous classroom.

Once things are stabilized, a large number of Faded Ones can come here to learn magic.

On the battlefield, the magician's lethality cannot be underestimated.

Not only that, Bai Shi also plans to change the name of the magic academy.

The magic academy was probably not originally called Rhea Lukalia, because the name means Royal Kalia Magic Academy.

The name was probably changed after the Full Moon Queen conquered the academy and the Kalia royal family came to rule.

As for the original name, it has been so long ago that it is impossible to verify it.

After the rebellion, the magicians of these academies did not change their names, probably because there was no absolutely powerful person to lead them.

After all, their existence is a loose alliance of classrooms and factions, and they may not be able to make up their minds in the end.

Bai Shi thought that since Kalia had done it, he had to do it too.

From now on, the Magic Academy will be under his jurisdiction, and it is indeed time to draw a clear line with the past.

However, Bai Shi couldn't think of any meaningful name, so he decided to use his unique advantages as a time traveler.

That is direct reference.

Speaking of magic schools in other worlds, the most famous one is naturally Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry from the world-class IP "Harry Potter series".

A new name means a new beginning.

Bai Shi also asked for teacher Se Lian's opinion.

Although Teacher Se Lian doesn't know the meaning of Bai Shi's new name, it is common to change the name after conquering someone, so let the apprentice do it if he wants.

Besides, it’s just a name, it doesn’t matter how you change it. What’s important in a magic academy is the knowledge inside it.

As for the cuckoos in the Lienia area outside, who have always had a cooperative relationship with the Magic Academy, Bai Shi has not yet figured out how to deal with them.

When the time comes, let the college come up with ways to communicate with them and have a talk with them.

If Dujuan is willing to continue this cooperative relationship, then there is no need to fight with them.

As for now, Bai Shi is going to meet the magician blacksmith who is imprisoned in the academy.

Bai Shi was very interested in this blacksmith who had been personally taught by old man Iji.

He is currently lacking such talents, so he needs to quickly bring them in to support the Han Dynasty... ahem, to support the Storm Royal Family.

Soon, Bai Shi came to the study room of the Razli classroom under the guidance of Teacher Serlian.

This is the location of the blacksmith that Grandpa Iggy obtained by decrypting the information.

This room was renovated later. Originally it was just an ordinary study room and did not occupy a large area.

Bai Shi pushed open the door of the study room and saw the dim scene inside.

This place has been transformed into a very claustrophobic place, somewhat similar to the basement where Teacher Se Lian was previously imprisoned.

It was very dark all around, all the windows were blocked and no light came in, only one lamp in the center was used for lighting.

A Haymer magician was imprisoned here, his feet were bound with shackles made of pyroxene crystals, connected to the stone beneath him, which was his 'chair'.

The style of this pair of shackles is almost exactly the same as the one that previously imprisoned Teacher Se Lian. It can not only limit magic power, but also inflict pain.

In front of him were two forging tables of very different shapes.

One of them is a very common and ordinary iron forging table. Ordinary blacksmiths use this forging table to forge weapons.

And next to the iron forging table, there is another special forging table.

The other forging table was a bit mini, half the size of a normal forging table, and was made entirely of grayish-white stone.

The small forging table was inlaid with dots of pyroxene crystals and covered with grooves. Deep blue magic flowed on it, forming strange patterns, which made people know at a glance that this thing was related to magic.

The magician Haimo was not moved at all when he heard the noise of the room being opened. He just sat on the stone without even bothering to raise his head.

Bai Shi walked up to him and looked him over.

This magician Hammer doesn't look anything special from the outside.

But it really isn't moving. Could it be dead?
Bai Shi looked at the magician who showed no reaction at all and asked:
"Are you the Hetis that old man Iggy was talking about?"

"It's rare to find a magician who has learned forging techniques."

When Bai Shi mentioned Iggy's name, the magician Hamo finally reacted.

He raised his head and looked towards Bai Shi's location.

"...Yes, you are?"

Bai Shi was slightly relieved to see that he was still alive and probably not crazy.

"My name is Bai Shi, the Storm King of Stonewell. I was taken care of by old man Iggy before, and he helped me a lot."

"After getting the news about you, Mr. Iggy thought you could help me, and said I could come and rescue you."

"The School of Magic has been conquered by me now, and you can be liberated as well."

"So, are you interested in working for me?"

Hetis was very surprised, and opened his mouth wide under the pyroxene stone cover. The magic academy was conquered?

Although it felt incredible, he was standing in front of him, so this must be the case...

Hetis swallowed.

"What will happen if I refuse?"

Bai Shi smiled.

"It's okay, I'm not a monster."

"While I need a good blacksmith, he is not absolutely indispensable."

"If you don't want to do it, I'll let you go and you can do whatever you want."

Hetis didn't know what a demon was, and felt that Bai Shi might have made a mistake, perhaps mistaking the evil omen for a demon.

But the person in front of me should not be a bad person.

"No, it's not that I don't want to serve you. You rescued me from captivity, and I will repay you no matter what."

"It's just that I have some questions I want to ask you, I don't know if it's okay."

Bai Shi touched his chin and looked at Hetis's pyroxene head mask.

"Okay, go ahead and ask."

Hetis asked:
"Do you think that one day, war will disappear on the border?"

Bai Shi raised his eyebrows. He thought Hetis would ask about the benefits of working under him, but he turned out to ask this kind of question.

Bai Shi thought about this question and also questioned his own heart.

"I am eager to see that day more than anyone else, and I have been working hard towards that goal."

"It's just a pity that war will never go away no matter what."

"I long to become the King of Elden. At first, I thought that as long as I became the King of Elden, I could resolve all the wars on the border and usher in peace."

“But as I got closer and closer to that position, I realized that even if I became the King of Elden, the war would not disappear.”

"There were Kings of Elden in the past, but wars didn't disappear either."

Bai Shi paused and laughed.

"But no one can tell about something so far away."

"I can only say that in the future, the border area should be able to usher in a period of peace that will last for an unknown period of time."

"The Shattering War is not over yet, and I am about to bring it to an end."

"I will once again begin the Shattering War, and this time it will be the war to end all wars."

Hetis was shocked by Bai Shi's idea.

The Shattering War is not a small fight, it is a war of the century that will affect the entire border area.

He then asked:

"You want to continue the Shattering War?!"

"This this……"

"The border area has already been devastated by the Shattering War. If another war breaks out..."

Bai Shi shook his head.

"What else? Do you think maintaining the status quo is a good thing?"

"There's a saying in my hometown: a short pain is worse than a long one."

"The border area is now a sick and deformed world. Only by using a sharp blade to correct it can we rewrite a new era of peace."

"War and force are the only paths to peace."

“Peace can never be obtained by waiting or being handed down, it must be won through struggle.”

"I want peace in the border area, so I must suppress all enemies in front of me."

"Without war, there is no way to end the current situation, and there is no way to restore the peace of the border areas."

If the border area was a peaceful place, Bai Shi wouldn't be in such a hurry to snowball and upgrade to improve his strength.

If he had traveled through time to a game like Stardew Valley or Animal Crossing, he wouldn't have to work so hard and could have just farmed peacefully.

At this place called the border, only if I become the King of Elden and have the power to suppress everything can I succeed.

Only then can there be a peaceful situation.

As for how long the future dynasty can last, who knows.

"Hertis, pledge your loyalty to me."

"I will end the war."

Hetis looked at the man in front of him, and a flame of hope suddenly rose in his heart.

Bai Shi is right. Is the current border area good?

The border area is now a pool of mud, and even order has collapsed.

Perhaps only such means can truly put an end to the war.

"In that case, I will be loyal to you."
