I Eat the Magic Scroll and Learnt Everything! - Chapter 36

Chapter 36: Guesses

After resting for a while, the two of them changed their clothes and sat by the bed.

Rollin told Daphne everything that had happened in the Imperial City.

After hearing this, Daphne fell into deep thought.

“You said that when the other party attacked Ipswich this time, there was a Witch?”

“Yes!”

This made Daphne frown because it was simply impossible.

Witches were the freest existence in the world.

Many years ago, all the Witches had signed an agreement not to interfere with a country.

And now, one of the other eight Witches had actually helped a country!

“Who is it!?”

“This is a very serious problem. Once a Witch makes a move, the contract will be broken, and the humans will quickly take out all the forbidden items to use!”

“Forbidden items?”

“The only thing that can be called forbidden is evil magic. It is not a type of dark magic, but a type of evil!”

“This kind of magic has a very wide range of uses, and each of them will create a very big problem!”

“For example, the ‘Malevolence Body’ of the evil magic… As long as someone creates it, they will obey the command of the one who created it and begin to devour humans endlessly, or everything else!”

“The rest of the magic includes the transformation of evil. By directly sacrificing humans, one can summon a very powerful Abyss Demon, or the Demon King of the Demon World, and so on!”

At the beginning, there was nothing much, but after hearing the end, Rollin could not help but frown!

“This!” Only now did he understand why the Emperor had suddenly become so old. It was very likely that he had used a ‘taboo’!

Then, Rollin told Daphne about this matter.

“It’s very likely! Usually, using the lives of high-ranking and powerful people as the basis for a sacrifice will summon something very powerful!”

“It’s very likely that your father-in-law has summoned something extraordinary. You’d better be careful!”

After hearing Daphne’s words, Rollin nodded seriously.

“There’s a high probability that he won’t target me, but will use these things to increase his territory!”

“Then what should you do now? The Witch has already broken the contract. What should you do next?”

Daphne seriously considered it for a moment.

“In the next few days, I’ll activate the Witch’s Tea Party in advance. Then, we’ll go and investigate together!”

“I have a feeling that there will be a lot of problems at this Witch’s Tea Party!”

After the conversation, Rollin went straight to the office and wrote a letter to his Uncle North.

After sealing the letter, he handed it to Gavin.

“After you send the letter to Uncle, pass a message to Jeff Brooke.”

“Have him carefully observe the people in the territory and see if anything strange has happened. If there is, have him send someone to send the letter to me immediately!”

Gavin took the letter and nodded before leaving the room.

The situation was getting more and more chaotic. Since the Witches were already like this, the Twenty-Four Dark Blades would be on their way too.

Moreover, Daphne had already discovered that the Twenty-Four Dark Blades were working together with the Witch last time.

What kind of relationship did the ‘Eastern Enemy Country’, the Twenty-Four Dark Blades, and the Witch have with each other?!

Using his hands to rub his hair, Rollin gave up thinking.

‘It’s useless to think about this now. Increasing my strength, increasing my combat power, and increasing my army is the most important thing!’

Thinking of this, Rollin took out his magic staff and flew towards Seven Star City.

The army there had been established for a long time. Since there was nothing to do in the afternoon, Rollin decided to immediately go there to inspect it.

With the support of the legendary magic staff, Rollin flew to Seven Star City in less than 15 minutes.

From the high altitude, it could be clearly seen that the soldiers below were really training in an orderly manner.

Moreover, the person leading the team at the front was the Commander of the Knights, Linn Lamber. He could not help but want to reward him.

After all, in the morning, Rollin was still having sex with his woman!

In comparison, he felt extremely ashamed of being a boss who did nothing!

With this shame, Rollin directly landed beside Linn Lamber.

Seeing his figure, Linn immediately gave him a standard etiquette.

Because Linn’s performance was too good recently, Rollin was prepared to reward him well, but it would be too insincere to let him say what he wanted.

After standing in a daze for a few seconds, Rollin immediately said to Linn, “Your performance recently was too outstanding. I hereby reward each of you with a Banner of Glory and 500 gold coins each!”

Hearing Rollin’s words, Linn was very happy. He did not expect his boss to be so generous.

Rollin originally wanted to give them weapons, but he found that their weapons were already considered top-notch in this continent.

Thus, Rollin remembered the thing that the Knights liked. ‘Glory’!

Even if it was a piece of cloth made into a brocade flag, they would feel that this thing was more precious than a few hundred gold coins, not to mention that it was given to them by their superior!

At the frontline camp.

Linn immediately placed the list of recent plans, ongoing events, and completed records in front of Rollin.

After flipping open the cover, he started to read it carefully.

Half an hour later, Rollin read the thick list carefully.

He realized that the defense of the entire Seven Star City was better than he had imagined. Moreover, they were connected to all the mountain bandits around them.

These mountain bandits were very smart. They would help Rollin’s army destroy the enemy and gain some benefits from it.

The other thing was Seven Star City’s defensive measures and the construction of the main city. In just over a month’s time, the defensive measures had been completed.

The construction of the Seven Star City was already 50% complete, and this was under the eight hour system.

‘It seems that there are many more refugees than I expected!’

The other thing was some training plans.

The original regular army had all become elite soldiers within a month after their new plans were formulated.

The 100,000-odd people in the new army now already possessed the combat ability of the former regular army.

The more he looked, the more meticulous they became. The efficiency of these two people was truly terrifying.

In just a short month, they had already gotten a clear picture of the background of the hundreds of thousands of troops in this area.

At the same time, they had scoured the ground of millions of refugees. They had even found all the spies who had sneaked into the area.

They were worthy of being the disciples of the leader of the Holy Knights of the Empire. Each of them was more powerful than the last.

Through the situation here, Rollin decided to give more authority to Jeff Brooke.

Because he was no longer the former Earl, but a Duke now! He could bestow three Counts or Earls and six Viscounts.

After returning, Rowling decided to give the Count’s position to Uncle North and the other to Jeff Brooke.

One was in charge of internal affairs adjustment, and the other was in charge of city construction management.. One was a perfect match!
