God of Internet

Chapter 19: Arcantor Magic School App on the Internet!

When I opened the conversation with Jaina about [Carrier Pigeon], I started laughing when I saw the way she wrote this.

[Jaina Proudstone: Dear Lord Athenos,

I hope this letter finds your lordship in good health and spirits. I am writing to inform you of recent developments in our esteemed Magic Council.

After deliberation and careful consideration of the points you raised in our last conversation, the Council members have decided by consensus to support the Internet God in the Kingdom of Arcantor. We offer our unwavering support and commitment to spreading this innovative blessing, the Internet, among the students of the Arcantor School of Magic.

However, we make this commitment on the condition that the benefits mentioned by Your Lordship during our conversation are strictly adhered to. We trust in Your Lordship's good faith and look forward to seeing the fruits of this alliance.

With warmest regards and best wishes,

Jaina Proudstone, Archmage of the Magic Council of Arcantor].

Despite the intense use of extremely complex and tedious language, the content was clear: they had approved our partnership as long as I fulfilled the benefits I offered them.

Those benefits were an app for the Kingdom of Arcantor, where official government posts could be made on that app, and all nobles and commoners would have direct access to government orders.

Also, an Arcantor Magic School App, with an internet library that teachers could fill with books that only Arcantor Magic School students could access.

Exclusive forums for students and teachers.

Personalized teaching materials, such as Father Robert's literacy course.

Class schedules and school events.

Lunar cycles and important reminders so that each of these events could be used in the study of magic.

And many other features.

Of course, the features of this app were all invented by me beforehand, as I thought about the possibilities of apps that I could bring into this world.

With each new feature of the app that I talked about and how it could help the students of Arcantor Magic School, Jaina got more and more excited, and I'm sure that was one of the main reasons why the other archmages accepted this proposal, because they saw that I was really sincere and dedicated to help them as well.

I had some other ideas for the Arcantor Magic School app, but it was better to just release the app with these six current functions, because the difference from one or two functions is very big, but six functions to ten functions isn't that remarkable.

The best way to keep their gratitude was to introduce the new features over time, showing that I'm constantly thinking about how to help them.

With their support, I would have guaranteed at least 3,000 more educated users, not to mention the noble family members of the students, the wizards who have already graduated from Arcantor Magic School and work for the government, who would know about it...

Looking at my 5,550 available Divine Power Points, I had to sigh before I started spending them on developing the new app.

The Arcantor Kingdom App was very cheap, as it was just a simple website where new users could register with Jaina to be able to post there, with sessions divided into districts, the largest being the National District, then this would be divided into smaller districts for lesser nobles, covering the entire chain of command of the kingdom.

The cost of this application is only 400 Divine Power Points.

The Arcantor Magic School app, on the other hand, was more expensive, especially since I got carried away while working on the customization part of the app...

Ensure your favorite authors get the support they deserve. Read this novel on the original website.

The feature part of the app alone cost me 1,000 Divine Power Points, and the customization part was another 400 Divine Power Points, the same cost as making the entire Arcantor Kingdom app.

The problem with this was that I thought it would be interesting to put customizations on the student's profile and on the page itself, based on the mage's magic realm.

If he was an Apprentice Mage, his app would be all white, for an Arcane Mage, light blue customizations would be unlocked, both for his profile and for the appearance of the app itself.

Master Mages would unlock navy blue customizations, Sage Mages would have red customizations, and finally Archmages would have purple customizations.

I thought of this as a way to let mages show off their prestige, and considering how vain mages have always been in all the media I've seen, I think this would be a good reason to encourage them to rank up even more.

It's not that having more powerful mages would be a bad thing for me, since these mages would be my soldiers in the coming war.

So at the end of the day, I spent 1,800 Divine Power Points to develop the two apps, and as soon as the apps were finished and I posted this, the Arcantor Magic School started to spread the word online to the students, and a group of employees started to copy the books onto the Internet.

To speed up this process, I decided to add an option where the user could pray to the God of the Internet and scan the book in front of them directly to the Internet.

The cost of this to me was 1 Divine Power Point, which didn't bring me any profit, but having more books in the Internet database in the long run would be a great way to get users to spend more time on the Internet.

Since mages used mind and spirit training, their mental power was much stronger than that of normal people, which meant that they could pray many times more than normal people per day, which meant that mages could spend much more time on the Internet!

"Attention, students!" A teacher said in a calm, authoritative voice in the middle of a classroom at Arcantor Magic School as soon as he entered.

Hearing the teacher's voice, the students quickly sat down in their seats and remained quiet.

At the Arcantor Magic School, any kind of disrespect towards the teacher was frowned upon, especially since the teachers were all at least master magicians, the young magic students didn't dare to offend any teacher.

Seeing the students' silence, the teacher was satisfied and nodded.

"Before today's lesson, I'd like to ask you all a question, does anyone here know about the Internet?" He asked as he looked at the students.

Hearing this, some students quickly looked at each other, while the vast majority were confused by this question.

Seeing that no one dared to answer, the teacher rephrased the question. "Don't be afraid, this book of mine is also from the Internet, so you can admit it without fear. As soon as he said that, the teacher picked up the navy blue book with a beautiful cover that said "Arcantor Magic School!

When the students who didn't know anything about the Internet saw the delicate book with a cover that looked like a work of art in the teacher's hand, they became very curious.

But three students' eyes lit up when they saw it, and they quickly raised their hands.

Looking at these three students, the teacher was surprised to see that they were the three students who had shown the most improvement in class over the past few days.

I seem to have found the reason for these three's sudden improvement...' the teacher thought. The teacher thought as he shook his head.

As someone who only learned about the Internet last night, Dalton was fascinated by the magic knowledge available on the Internet, even more so when he was given access to the [Arcantor Magic School App], with so many useful features, Dalton realized that this was the future of magic!

To the point that he spent at least 6 hours surfing the Internet and reading in his dorm room, leaving only 2 hours to sleep before class.

But because he was a magician, he didn't need as much sleep as normal people, so he was now able to perform in front of the students with composure.

When Dalton noticed that the three students who already had access to the Internet had improved significantly compared to the students who didn't have access to the Internet, he was even more certain that introducing the Internet to the other students would surely improve their learning efficiency.

So he explained the Internet to the other students and taught them the prayer to the God of the Internet so that they could use it as well, before finally giving them access to the [Arcantor Magic School App].

When the students saw the white book in their hands and saw that the book in the teacher's hand was navy blue, just like his master magician's robe, the students felt even more motivated to learn.

As they listened to the explanation of all the functions of the Internet and the [Arcantor Magic School App], their eyes lit up.

Especially for students whose parents were nobles who lived far away, it was incredible to know that they could communicate with their parents so easily via the Internet without using any magic power!

So with the help of the Arcantor Magic School, in just one night, all the teachers learned about the Internet, and the next morning, all the students learned about it and became new believers.

The number of believers, which was 993 before the Arcantor Magic School started spreading the word about the Internet, suddenly jumped to 4,704, and it started rising even faster by the end of the day!

And to make me even more excited, my main body had finally finished studying the Blessing, and I had a viable way to help Robert teach people to read even faster!
