Magical Academy: Rise of the Supreme Magic Craftsman

Chapter 482 - The Aftermath ( 2 )

Wallace swiftly dealt with the remaining forces of the Empire. 

It had become easy to eliminate them due to the loss of their command center. They were unable to act and had nowhere else to go. 

Together with Avalon's forces, it only took them more than three hours to settle everything.

The worker androids were now under Avalon's control and the Conveyor Spaceships are now being repaired and will be under his care from now on.

He didn't want to waste such valuable materials. These Spaceships would still be very useful to him and for this planet considering how he wanted to further advance the technology of this planet. 

After doing all of this, Wallace finally decided to visit the Floating Island and reunite with his family. 

The war may not have lasted for a year but the destruction and trauma it caused would last for generations. 

Time gradually passed and Wallace appeared above the Floating Island. He realized that this place had actually become a battlefield. 

'Since Avalon didn't give a report on its own, then this means that everything should be fine.'

Wallace thought as he knows that he would be informed by the A.I. if something happened to his family on the island. 

As expected, as he spread his Divine Sense, he felt the presence of his family and they are all safe and sound. 

His parents are helping the doctors treat the patients while Clarice is together with Claire moving around the island and observing the Mech Knights docked everywhere. 

"Claire… They look amazing, right? Once you grow up, you should become a Mech Pilot, understand?" Clarice said as she holds her sister's hands.

"Mhm! I will fly them and shoot the bad guys!" Claire replied with determination.

Claire had seen the battle a while ago and she couldn't easily forget such an event.

"Hey, sister… Isn't that too early for her? Who knows, she might be talented in Soul Arts or Spirit Arts as well." 

The two sisters were startled but as they recall the familiar voice, they immediately looked behind them with an excited face…

"Wallace!"

"Brother!"

The two immediately run towards Wallace and hugged him. It has been a while since they've met.

Wallace has already removed his Bio-Armor and is in his casual clothes.

"I noticed that this place seems to have become a battlefield. Are you guys alright?"

"Mhmm! Yes! They are no match against these large Mech Knights! Brother, sister Clarice said that you can make them. Can you also make me one?"

"Haha! Sure… Just grow a bit more and I can give you as much as you want." Wallace replied with a smile.

They chatted for a while before deciding to visit his parents. 

Overall, he just wanted to relax and calm his mind. He didn't want to disturb his parents that much so he only showed up for a bit letting them know that he's doing well.

A year had passed after they have defeated the Meredith Empire's invading forces…

Only less than half of the continent's population have survived the war… Even the most powerful being on the planet, the Celestial Being, was still missing.

Furthermore, the countries of Seiji and Utara have been completely erased from the map and their land is now being occupied by many powerful Mana Beasts.

Perhaps, the arrival of the aliens has triggered the evolution of many Mana Beasts making them extremely strong and deadly. 

It seems to be similar to what has happened when Wallace left his spaceship on an island for a long time. But this time, the effect was much faster and the power of the Mana Beasts increased by more than ten times! 

It is extremely dangerous for the non-magicians if they ever encountered them so there has been a lot of new policies being passed to ensure that everything would be under control.

Of course, the other countries had also suffered a lot. Especially in those regions where the Space Beasts had rampaged. 

It appears that these Space Beasts have left some wisp of their energy and affected the environment… Right now, many residents of Zairus, Maja, and Virgan had reported many sightings of Chaotic Mana, or perhaps Mana Calamity, being formed in several regions.

Fortunately, the war seems to have benefited the magicians as well.

There have been many Battle Mages that were promoted to an Adept Mage after a successful Arcane Baptism! These people that have been stuck for many years benefitted a lot thanks to the changes in the world. 

"Am I seeing the dawn of a new era?" Wallace muttered as he reads Avalon's reports in his office.

Apparently, the magicians now have become extremely strong and there are even signs of 8th Generation Mana Artifacts being completed. 

The previous Forbidden Techniques that can take the life force of magicians as a side effect was no more.

There's also a discovery of Spell Fusion that allows the magicians to combine their Mana Spells to form a powerful one.

Veda even reported that there are magicians in hiding that were actually studying how to create a Grade 6 Magic or even higher! They seem to obsess about creating a Mana Spell that is as strong as Hadron Particle Beam that they've seen in the war. 

Aside from that, the death of the many Great Sages this war seems to have triggered many Sages as many of them got promoted in less than a year and became renowned Grand Sages…

"Avalon… What do you think about the information we got from the capsule?" Wallace asked.

[ All the information we extracted has at least 98% accuracy based on the clues we've found. It should be safe to assume that everything in the report is real. ] The A.I. replied. 

Wallace smiled as he closed his eyes…

He's currently in his Fortress in Mt. Ravencroft. Although the planet is undergoing several changes, he remained here in his Fortress developing many practical and groundbreaking technologies that would benefit the planet.

He is pretty much completing Aeolia's plan to advance this world's technology. 

Well, most of this task is being handled by Ace anyway.

After a while, Wallace opened his eyes and gazed at the Floating Metal Ball beside him…

"Based on the information you extracted from the Flagship and the Escape Vessel that was taken, it will take at least 300 more years before the Meredith Empire can trace this planet…"

[ That's correct. ] 

After hearing the A.I.'s confirmation, Wallace took a deep breath and made a decision.

"Well, I guess I can take it easy and let the future generations handle them."

Wallace faintly smiled after contemplating for a very long time.
