Chronicles of Ryan the Wizard

After more than a month of secret investigation, "Shadowshou", which was just formed only 2 months ago, found a lot of things. This organization, which has exactly the same name as Ryan’s dagger, has been hidden in the dark forever since it appeared. Almost all organizations have one-line contacts. Except for its leader, Sophie, not to mention outsiders, even the internal staff are completely unclear about the potential of this organization.

If someone carefully examines Cassano’s records in the last two months, he will find many clues. Massive funds have been allocated in the name of inexplicable, many outstanding fighters have mysteriously disappeared, and there is an extra piece in the Iron Fist Castle. Forbidden land, anyone who steps into it will quickly lose their way, even those who have lived here for decades...

I have to admit that the current reputation of this organization called "Shadowsall" is not as good as an ordinary mercenary group in the mercenary hall of Tekken Castle, but its members have enough to make the most powerful mercenaries on the continent. The group's side-view: various enchanted weapons and armors made by Mithril, the invisibility scroll used to hide whereabouts, and a lot of money that never ends...

With the support of a powerful magician like Ryan, the entire territory of Cassano as a backing, the help of Archmage Victor and the legacy of Archmage Delaney, I want to arm one in a short time to collect Such an organization that operates in intelligence and secrets is not very difficult.

At this time, Sophie, the leader of "Shadow Mortal", was standing respectfully in Ryan's magic tower, while her master Ryan was sitting in front of the desk, slowly reading the thick materials that Sophie had compiled. .This information elaborated how some ulterior motives inside Cassano colluded with external hostile forces and created a series of vicious incidents, and the tragedy in Brady and his village was also involved.

Originally, the three families of Cassano were standing side by side. Naturally, there were a group of people enjoying their power. However, when Ryan unified the entire Cassano by force, the original circle of interests was ruthlessly divided. This group of people who lost their power naturally Dissatisfied.In addition, Ryan trusts Vivienne and the others, and almost two-thirds of the power of Cassano is handed over to the council headed by Adela, Vivienne, and Adams, and while doing so, it is naturally cut off. Other people's access to power.

These people knew that their strength was limited and couldn't compete with Ryan from the front, so they could only endure it.Unexpectedly, when Ryan left Cassano to participate in the Royal Athletic Tournament, someone began to contact them. After a while, an organization called the "Southern Liberty League" officially appeared on the scene, targeting Ryan and one of his ruling class The huge conspiracy is also officially launched.

This group of losers in the power struggle of Cassano still has a certain amount of power inside Cassano. Although they can't control the situation of Cassano, it is okay to do some small actions, so there are many wearing cards. The soldiers served by Sano’s army looted everywhere, and naturally there was the tragedy of Brady’s village.

Of course these are only a small part. In fact, neither the rebels of Cassano nor the Southern Freedom League do not think that this can shake the foundation of Cassano. They only do so to satisfy themselves as much as possible. His desire, and to create as many hostiles as possible for Cassano.

What really affects Cassano’s current stability is the group of rebels spreading rumors throughout the territory, instigating the relationship between Cassano’s army and the people, separating Cassano and the imperial capital, and trying to alienate Ryan and Cassano. Other people's relationships.If it were other rulers, the conspiracy of this group of rebels might have succeeded, but their opponent was Ryan, a powerful magician. After continuously demonstrating his power, many Casas had already had some ideas. Officials of Nuo honestly acted like Ryan's allegiance, because even if they could take power away, they couldn't get Ryan's forbidden curse unless they had the personal protection of the archmage day and night.

The failure of the conspiracy made this group very frustrated, but soon there was another plot against Ryan, which was to assassinate Vivienne and Adela. As long as these two women died, Ryan and Cassano’s succession would be It will be interrupted in an instant, and Ryan, who has lost his ruling foundation, wants to regain control of Cassano's situation, and must re-support his cronies, and this opportunity is just right to bring these rebels to power.

The plan sounded good, but unfortunately they still failed. The reason was the sudden arrival of Farath. Of course, Ryan and the others knew about the many things that happened. Ryan quickly flipped through these pages and slowly looked at the appendix. The list of personnel at the end of the document.

Familiar names flicked across his fingertips, Ryan looked at the list silently, without making any sound, even without any expression on his face, while Adela and Vivian, who stood by, were flushed. Because one-third of them came from their families, and some of the staff were appointed by the two of them. At that time, they just thought that everyone had blood relationship, but they never thought that others would not treat them as real. family.

"Is power so fascinating?" Ryan sighed and dropped the list in his hand. He picked up the clear water in front of him and drank it. After a pause, he said: "I have given up all power. After coming out, are they not satisfied? Are they satisfied if I really want to leave Cassano?"

"No, Ryan, it's none of your business!" Adela and Vivian spoke quickly. They don't want Ryan to leave everything here. Although they can follow Ryan, they are not as strong as Ryan. Sorcerer of the town, I'm afraid it will become someone else's territory in just a few days, right?

"Perhaps Falas is right, I am a political idiot at all." Ryan's tone seemed a little lost, which made Adela and Vivienne very anxious, but they didn't know what to say. After all, many of this group of rebels have something to do with them, and it happened after Ryan granted Cassano full power to them.

Sophie’s eyes rolled quickly, and she quickly thought of something, so she plucked up the courage and said, "Master, please forgive me for being rude, but I don’t think your words are correct, or to be accurate. , The sentence that Ms. Faras said was incorrect."

"Oh?" Ryan has always trusted Farasi, especially in politics. Unexpectedly, today Sophie suddenly said that Ryan was wrong. Of course, this will not make Ryan angry, but he is inevitably a little bit curious. So Ryan pointed to the chair next to the desk and said, "You all sit down, don't be too restrained here, Sophie, tell me what you mean."

After everyone sat down, Sophie spoke confidently and said: "For magic, you have put in hard work, and naturally you have achieved outstanding achievements. In terms of politics, I believe that you have also put in some effort. , But not as handy as using magic, so I feel that I am not good at politics, right?"

"Yes." Ryan nodded and admitted: "For the same thing, Faras can immediately understand the truth at a glance, and even if I have her points, I am always puzzled. Obviously I don't have the talent in this area. ."

"No, I don't think so." Sophie got to the point, and her voice increased a lot: "Please allow me to say something disrespectful. If it comes to understanding the magic system, you are definitely better than no Go to Falasi, or any outstanding student of the Magic Academy, but your magic power is far above them, why?"

"It is said that your magic system is not complete. When you are adventurous with Ms. Farras, you can almost only know a few kinds of magic, but even the outstanding students of the Imperial College of Magic must look up to the miracles you create. Isn't it? Master, the reason for all this is actually very simple, that is, you are stuck with the rules."

"Stick? Rules?"

"Yes, I have seen you make a move directly and make your opponents irresistible with oppressive attacks, but what about politics? You are acting in accordance with the rules set by others everywhere. This is not to trap your own hands and feet and others. Fighting? Besides, you can only be regarded as a novice in politics."

"In magic, you give full play to your advantages, so you are almost invincible; but in politics? You use your own shortcomings and then run behind others. If you can easily defeat your opponents in this way, then you The perception between your opponent and you is definitely greater than the magic gap between you. In fact, how could such a character become your opponent?"

"Although I don't understand politics very well, but I think that politics is not simply intrigue with people. Your magical strength, Cassano's military strength, manpower and material resources... etc. should all be within the scope of politics. , Master, you are a straightforward and kind person, but now you have given up your best strength, but you are fighting against others on your worst mind. May I ask, how much do you have to pay to fight others One longer?"

"What you said makes sense, Sophie." Ryan couldn't help but nodded seriously. He couldn't help asking Sophie about the countermeasures. Sophie's face flushed slightly, and her body was slightly trembling. It was obvious that she did not. Shi was very excited, but Sophie quickly stabilized her emotions. She lowered her voice to Ryan: "The so-called politics is just a transaction between people. If you are close in strength, naturally you will sit down and slowly. Talk, if there is a huge disparity in strength, why bother to speak?"

"Master, in my opinion, your policy after unifying Cassano is too conservative. If you don't use force, how can you deter the enemy? As a magician, your humility is a rare quality. But as a lord, your low-key has become synonymous with cowardice. Just like your duel in Mochizuki City, you won the respect of others with a clean victory. Now, as a lion, you are sleeping in Cassano It’s been too long, my master!"
