In Type-Moon, people create a magic family lineage

The anticipated confrontation did not materialize. Even though you killed a magic king, they still hold you in high esteem—you came as the leader of the secret cult, and here you returned the magic crest belonging to the Transberio family.

[You have met the next successor of the Tramberg family, the next 'King' of the Clock Tower Foundation Department]

They expressed their gratitude to you.

Even if you killed her brother

Magicians are inherently detached from emotions; only self-interest matters to them.

[This generation of Bartholomew—with the Clock Tower Dean, the Legacy Department Monarch Bricissan often neglecting his duties, and the Mage's Association's Supreme Commander, the 'Marshal of the Magic Path,' the Second Magician, Kishua Zelrich Schbein'Aug—undoubtedly holding the highest position here, has expressed his gratitude to you and has also offered you compensation.]

They invite you to delve into the tomb of Albion beneath the clock tower.

[Your guide will be the young monarch, Mansfield Archerlot Valerie, a descendant of the First Mage whose bloodline you are interested in.]

【…】

The Tomb of Albion.

In his later life, Lu Kang, as a student at the Clock Tower headquarters, had often heard about this. Before he transmigrated to this world, he knew even more that this was the reason why the Clock Tower, the headquarters of the Magic Association, a huge organization that brings together at least 70% of the world's magicians, was located on London.

This is also one of the reasons why the mystery of England is higher than that of the norm.

This is the area where a world dragon from an ancient mythological era finally died.

It is because the dragon's corpse is buried deep underground, and its immense magical power continuously spreads outward from it, weaving together a mysterious treasure that can be described as inexhaustible.

Throughout history, countless magicians have unearthed mysterious treasures from them, and countless low-level magicians have made their fortunes and continued their lineages through them.

In fact.

Lu Kang had considered infiltrating the Trumperio family's forces during his last trip to England, but was ultimately unable to do so due to unforeseen circumstances.

Faced with Barthez's invitation, he naturally had no reason to refuse.

Aside from genuine interest.

It was also because Lu Kang wanted to take this opportunity to leave something behind.

To leave behind something tangible, similar to Academy City, that can be inherited by future generations.

This is the real goal of Lu Kang's journey.

...

In 1432, rumbling sounds were heard from beneath London. According to many eyewitnesses, they heard the earth roaring and an ancient dragon rising from within.

According to Mansfield Archellot Valerie, the botanical monarch of that generation who accompanied him into the tomb of Albion at the time.

She followed the uncrowned king of the French mysticism, the spiritual leader of the French people, and the head of the Church's secret teachings deep into the tomb of Albion.

They were among them.

We've witnessed the resurgence of Albion!

—From *The Bureau of Unearthed Remains: Historical Records (XI)*

...

Just like the evil dragon Fafnir summoned from the French headquarters.

[Deep within Albion, you used the magic of true ether to manipulate the mind, piecing together a miniature version of the 'Dragon of the World']

It is a dragon containing the egg of a miniature world.

[They are also ancient beings that should have existed in the age of fantasy.]

Chapter 80: The Simulated End, A Century Later, Four Religions United, The Final Chapter of the Flying Princess.

[The miniature world egg—a grand magic called a Reality Marble—is a high-level mystery beyond your grasp.]

It has nothing to do with ability or talent; it's simply a matter of adaptability.

Because it is a manifestation of the mental world, it involves the manifestation of some realms of power. Your mental image—your soul, your origin—has long since transformed into a 'demon god' capable of encompassing all things, into a manifestation of power of another complete existence.

Your origin is everything you see.

Therefore, no matter what, you can never grasp this mystery.

But magicians have never been a profession that relies solely on themselves. Humans are a species adept at using tools. Just because you can't control something yourself doesn't mean you can't use it with external forces. You've already done something like that once.

The only difference is that what you created last time was a miniature egg of the world, solidified deep within it and unable to move freely.

This time, however, it's a living 'miniature world'.

You left it deep within the tomb of Albion.

You left the clock tower.

You also left England very soon.

[Return to France]

Next, you will have a grand wedding with a young woman named Jeanne Dalque, the King of France.

You will make a vow with her.

You will be connected here.

[Forever and ever]

That year, you were twenty-seven, and Jeanne was nineteen.

The whole of France was there for your wedding and is happy for you.

...

'The victor' Vic Towar was a victor not only on the battlefield, but also in politics and in religion.

His life was not long, but he achieved comprehensive development in almost every field. In his early years, he went to the battlefield with his wife, Jeanne d'Orléans, who later became Queen Saint of France. Under her assistance, Joan of Arc was almost invincible.

After his youth, he devoted himself to the religious field, leading the French Church to rival the Roman Catholic Church and becoming the true Pope of France.

During this time, he never neglected his wife's career. He was a powerful minister in the kingdom, and on his advice, the Queen reformed many of the ills within France, laying a solid foundation for the Renaissance that would last for decades.

He even personally designed many technological creations that influenced the industrial age.

He also bloodily slaughtered countless political enemies.

It also thwarted countless plots by enemies from outside France.

He caused that generation of popes to die of heart failure and vomiting blood.

He was invincible.

He was also the founder of the kingdom for generations to come.

—Victor Vic

...

Thirty years have passed in the blink of an eye.

You were fifty-seven years old that year, and Jeanne was forty-nine.

You both look as young as you did thirty years ago, and you have no children—yet your strength has not diminished your passionate feelings, and the love between you has not faded with time, but has instead grown richer and more intense—and remains unchanged to this day.

Although you always want to complain about why you're always the one on the bottom.

You know this is because you are not your real body, but merely a perfect projection of reality itself.

[You are well aware that even if it were true, and even if you had achieved a divine body with abundant blood, it would still be difficult to leave behind descendants.]

Fortunately, you adopted a daughter more than ten years ago.

She will carry on your and Jeanne's legacy, and inherit this France.

And you, too, will use her to set history back on track.

Her name is Louise.

[Later generations may refer to her as Louis XI]

[He was the second king of France, the Madonna dynasty, the Spider with a Thousand Faces]

She has grown up this year.

[This year, you and Jeanne finally decided to step down and leave.]

[Exiting this historical stage called France]

Looking at the beautiful young woman beside you, you know that because of your existence, future generations of history may lack a tragic hero who will be remembered by history. But you are happy with your change, because a person's life is far more than just a few simple words or pages in history.

...

The sudden abdication of Saint Queen Jeanne Darque was an unexpected surprise to the entire continent of Europe at the time.

At that time, the Holy Queen was in her prime and full of vigor.

At that time, she had the assistance of Pope Victor Touvar of France.

France's national strength also flourished under her rule.

With domestic stability and the submission of foreign powers, even England, a former enemy, had to defer to France – France possessed immense authority and a lofty status.

But she resolutely gave up such power and chose to abdicate.

Some say that even after so many years, she is still the same Orleans girl who saved France, and she has no interest in power or status.

Some say she was already tired of the power struggles at the top of the kingdom.

However, multiple historical records indicate that she was accompanied by the victor, Vic, in her final departure.

They may have gone into seclusion here.

Or perhaps he will wander the world from here.

From acquaintance to understanding, to love, to companionship.

That is the kind of perfect life that heroes should have—a life without tragedy.

—Joan of Arc

...

1499 years.

The world changes.

Since thirty-nine years ago, when Saint Queen Jeanne Darque and the victor Victoire departed.

Louis XI, who succeeded to the French throne, continued the old policies, maintaining a highly open and reform-oriented approach to domestic governance while suppressing the powerful and wealthy. He also abandoned the policy of recuperation and development that had prevailed for decades and launched a radical campaign to unify the scattered duchies within the country.

She successively abolished the Duchy of Burgundy, the Duchy of Anjou, the County of Provence, and the County of Maine, effectively unifying the whole of France and bringing all territories under the control of the 'King'.

She declared that the king was the owner of all land, and that commoners and nobles alike only had the right to use it. She proclaimed that all wealth belonged to the king, and that all under the king were equal.

Although he never uttered the phrase "I am the state," Louis XI undoubtedly pushed the limits. Despite some setbacks, France maintained a stable and upward trajectory under his rule.

As the heir to the kingdom personally groomed by Louis-Canon, Louis XI was undoubtedly qualified and outstanding.

Now, the throne has changed hands, and Louis XI passed away sixteen years ago. Her successor, who was also her stepson, was crowned at the age of thirteen and is known as Charles VIII.

Although Charles VIII was young and physically weak, his ambition was greater than that of his foster mother. At the age of twenty-three, he launched a war against the Kingdom of Naples in Sicily, southern Italy. This war, in its ongoing development, became the starting point for the French invasion of Italy.

Everything unfolded exactly as Lu Kang had predicted, and everything followed the normal course of history.

The changes brought about by the Hundred Years' War were like a dream.

The grand gestures of the upper echelons of various nations clearly could not affect the entire world.

It has no effect on the rural areas in central France.

Between these fields, ridges crisscross, and heavy ears of wheat sway their heads, dozing off in the wind. Surrounded by the bountiful harvest, children laugh and play in the villages, while adults wear hearty smiles.

The gurgling sound came from the end of a path that parted between the ridges of the fields.

A horse-drawn carriage slowly pulled up at the village entrance, and the silver-haired girl who stepped down from the carriage was just like she had been nearly a hundred years ago—invited to help a child learn to read and write.

"This place really hasn't changed at all in a hundred years..."

Her silver hair was loose, her red eyes were narrowed, and her gorgeous black and white dress looked out of place among the ridges of the fields. The figure of the 'girl' was also shrouded in a mysterious shadow under the parasol she raised.

People around them turned to look at them with curiosity.

But compared to a hundred years ago, they seem to have lost some of the awe they once had for those who were clearly of noble birth.
