Magical Academy: Rise of the Supreme Magic Craftsman

Chapter 414 - Preparations

Lacus arrived at the Cloud Hawk Manor…

There is a building specifically for the provisioning of the Tranquil Mind to normal people. 

She can see the other three apprentices working to help everyone get used to the presence of mana…

Apparently, once they consumed a cup of mystical water, there will be a chance that they will be overwhelmed by the pressure of mana.

However, it is not life-threatening since their bodies were already adjusted to mana. After all, they grew up here on this planet and their only problem is that they have a very affinity to mana.

They were always experiencing its existence but they can't manipulate or control them.

"Are there any issues, Sir Clyne?" The lady asked after entering the manor.

The old man in front of her is Clyne Troyard, the trustworthy butler working for the Manor before she was even born. 

"There were no issues at the moment, young miss. Miss Farah and Sir Clark are managing the provisions of the Tranquil Mind to the citizens really well. As for Sir L, he's taking care of those people who just consumed the water. It seems that his Artifact is helping them to calm down."

"I see. That's good to hear… How about their decisions to participate as helpers in this war?"

This time, Clyne smiled before answering. It seems he has good news. 

"They are willing… Most of the citizens that participated in our provisions are people from the Stella Region that were evacuated here in the city. Right now, they wanted to quickly end the war so they wanted to help as much as they can."

"Haa~ I see… How about the Congress, did they mention anything about our project?"

Clyne shook his head after hearing the question.

"They have a lot more problems now that the Seiji Alliance decided to attack us too… Right now, they are letting all the Clans and Manors get more power to fight against all our enemies. It's not like the Congress of Magicians has many leaders with them… Most of the powerful Magicians were all tied to their Clans or Organization."

"It's good that they have no problems… So how about the Mana Artifacts prepared for them?"

"We are still lacking, Miss Lacus…"

"I see… I'll work on that." The young lady replied. 

At this moment, the magicians working for the government were indeed numerous but the top and the strongest ones were mostly the protectors of their Clan or their organization.

In the end, the Congress, Ministry, and the Lucent Force have to work together to become even stronger and lead the fight against the aliens and Seiji Alliance.

However, they still have to cooperate with these private organizations in order to lessen their burden. This is why they are letting their Cloud Hawk Manor gain more influence. 

Anyway, Farah Carlos, the Second Apprentice of Slaine wasn't just activating the Arcana and giving water to the citizens, she has another Arcana that allows her to see the potential of the humans she's interacting with…

The spell is called Sacred Sense, which was her submitted Arcana that allowed her to become an Arcanist.

On the other hand, Clark Gates, the Third Apprentice was actually helping the normal people to easily adapt to the presence of Mana…

Apparently, he's also practicing the Spirit Arts that allows him to affect the spiritual qualities of the people near him.

Finally, L, the Fourth Apprentice of Sllaine is the one who will decide whether the people here will be helpful or a burden to their Manor. He's currently in control of one of Slaine's Arcana that pressures everyone into kneeling and helps them transform their bodies.

Lacus smiled after seeing her fellow apprentices working together to help the Manor. 

Now that their Master is not in a good condition, their enemies might take advantage of their position and take their authority. So they have to remain strong and gain more power until their master can lead them.

Of course, they could easily get assistance from Avalon in case necessary but the A.I. still has a lot of things to worry so they have to bear this themselves.

"Are there any requests from the Congress to send our Adepts?" Lacus asked as she entered the room where many automatons are placed. 

"Don't worry, Young Miss, because of what Sir Slaine did to one of the Conveyor Spaceship, our manor is exempted in the second offensive. We can just focus on gathering our forces for now."

"I see… That makes sense."

Lacus nodded at this as she looked at the new designs of their automatons. She couldn't tell whether this is stronger than Wallace's Elysiums but this Carnage Series of Automatons made by their Manor would become their main force later on. 

Once they have plenty of new magicians from these people they are helping now, these Carnage Automatons would be able to show their full strength.

'I just hope that many would pass the synchronization rate…'

In the meantime, they also have to wait until they have a solid method to fight against the Khrusam's Death Energy…

Right now, she felt that there is nothing to fear if they will fight the imperial soldiers, marauder gears, and mech frames…

Their only worry for this war is the Khrusams and the power of their spaceships' cannons. At the moment, only Wallace's Spaceships were capable of defending against their Positron and Hadron Cannon.

***

While Lacus is busy managing the Cloud Hawk Manor, the other forces of the country had also started gathering their forces. 

Because of the first offensive, they managed to get a glimpse of the strength of the aliens and learned a lot about how to deal with them.

Right now, they are finally readying their Secret Arts and Lost Technology… or the Arcane Technologies that they've kept for a very long time… Most of them have never thought that there will be a time to use them. 

However, due to the current circumstances, many Forbidden Arts and Technologies will finally resurface in the world.
