So he thought of selling his Gigants to the other nations which were acquainted with him and boost their power.

Of course, however, he didn’t intend to sell Orion just like that.

The idea was to remove the tuning Helm, lower the core engine and sell a downgraded version with a reduced armor strength of 30 %.

But even that alone would outperform any other Hero Class made by the top ten Magic Tower.

“Your Majesty, please sell Orion to our Irea kingdom.”

“We want one for our Navarre Duchy too.”

When Luke said that he planned to sell, several nobles of the other nations approached him and announced their intention to purchase.

“That might be difficult. Orion cannot be made a lot in a year. So, why don’t you buy our Knight and Warrior class first?”

In addition to Orion, Luke had other Gigants to sell. They were the Gaius and improved Stiletto.

“Oh! The Gigants which were shown in the parade today?”

In addition to Orion, other Gigant’s movements and output seemed pretty nice.

“Yes. They also perform better than any other Gigants of the other Magic Tower.”

Luke, like a trader, skilfully dealt with foreign nobles.

Of course, it was basic to sell them for more cost than their original price.

And the trick was possible as the magic towers and the Magic World of the continent still hadn’t escaped from the consequences of the Battle of Magic Towers.

And several small and medium magic towers, and more than half of the top ten magic towers were destroyed, which made finding new Gigants impossible.

Moreover, the production volume had reduced by a lot, so the nations, their nobles, and the military were in a hurry to find new ones.

Naturally, the performance and quality of a lot of Gigants were satisfactory.

Under such circumstances, they were compelled to buy the new types of Gigants at the cost which the Symphonia Kingdom stated.

‘I don’t know about the sales, but production is going to be a problem. We might have to expand the workshop of Katarina Magic Tower or expand the subcontracted magic towers.’

After a crazy environment, his messenger brought a man.

Luke was looking forward to meet him, so he moved to a separate room to discuss with the man.

“You must be Marquis Albain?”

“Yes, and I am honored to meet His Majesty.”

A decent old man with glasses bowed to Luke.

He was the Marquis of Albain, the Chairman of Baroque Parliament, and the dean of the Albain Academy.

After losing all the things he laid foundation for, he had to wander abroad with other scholars due to the civil war in the Baroque Empire, and he came to Symphonia because of Luke’s passionate courtship.

“I am the one who is honored, I heard that the Marquis was a person who educated students without any discrimination in the Empire.”

“Isn’t it reasonable to teach without discrimination? No one should discriminate against a person even more towards a child.”

Marquis Albain had denied it, but Luke didn’t mind.

It was because discrimination was based on talent and not on the status or race.

However, they don’t just take in the talented people, but also cultivate step-by-step education suitable for each level and raise them into useful men in the society.

“Well, the Royal Academy has been completed near Lamer City. Marquis will take over as the dean.”

Luke was planning on making the Royal Symphonia Academy as the best in the Rhodesia Continent.

The more talented the people were, the more would flourish the nation they live in.

For that end, in addition to Marquis Albain, Luke was planning to actively recruit scholars from the Southern continent.

“I’m grateful to you for taking such a person under your wings.”

“Uhu, you need to work hard and cultivate talented men.”

After a brief talk with Marquis Albain and the future of the Academy, Luke moved back to the banquet hall.
