575 Reward From the Congress (1/2)
Hearing what Benedict III said, Kritonia said after a brief silence, ”Your Holiness, I will assist 'Original Fire' in secret as a way to answer for my sins when I was tricked by Sard. I hope that the Church could send someone to rescue the main members of my family.”
'Original Fire' was the legendary class of 'Night Executioner'. The South Church preferred to address the night watchers by their nicknames, and the outsiders preferred their class name.
”I have already felt your repentance. I believe that the Lord will be happy about that, too. When the situation is less intense, I'll ask Vaharall to sent night watchers to help your family. By then, I will grant you the title of duke again with a fief near the Holy City.” Said Benedict III peacefully.
Kritonia was a level-three legendary expert, but he was too eye-catching, and Rentato was watched over by Hathaway, Davey, Winston and other legendary experts in turns. Not far away, it was Allyn, the main base of the Congress of Magic. It was more difficult for him to save anyone than it was for the regular night watchers. He even suspected that Natasha imprisoned the main members of his family exactly to allure him to save them. Chances were that the most dangerous traps had been set up there, and he would be collectively attacked by a lot of legendary sorcerers. Therefore, he had to ask for the help of other forces and wait out the enemy's wariness.
So, having got the pope's promise, Kritonia smiled. ”Your benevolence is remarkable.”
”With you working together with 'Night Executioner', I can already see Lucien Evans' ending. However, he will definitely be thoroughly protected by the Congress of Magic. You must be careful. A living legendary expert is much more important than a dead one.” Benedict III expressed his concerns for Kritonia and then remarked with mixed feelings, ”There probably won't be any greater achievement in this operation. You will hide in the northland for now. I'll ask the Night Executioner to contact you.”
He, on the other hand, intended to return to the Holy City and completely ban magic radios for a while.
Until today, although he had recognized the radio stations' guidance in thinking, he did not expect it to be powerful. If the ordinary believers listened to it all the time, they would deviate from their faith and fall into hell.
However, Benedict III knew that it could not be banned forever. The nobles, after being less restrained, would definitely chase after the luxury entertainment. Therefore, he was thinking to establish the Church's own radio station and set up divine power circles to monitor electromagnetic signals.
Kritonia grew solemn. ”Yes, Your Holiness.”
The shadow in his hands were gone, replaced by vague spots of light.
Looking at the spots, Kritonia sighed. Before, legendary knights were highly autonomous about missions and commands, and he wouldn't have needed to do anything to eliminate a eighth-circle sorcerer. However, when one step went wrong, all the steps that followed went wrong…
”I have to establish my own brightness on this path…” Kritonia turned around and left.

Inside the villa at the suburb of Allyn…
As a member of the Atom Institution, Blake understood the value of neutrons perfectly. It meant that the internal model of atoms constructed by the new alchemy was fundamentally valid, and that the sorcerers who were good at elements would embrace a golden age. It was like Mr. Blake turned the school of electromagnetics from an insignificant field into one of the four most powerful schools within the Congress of Magic after he founded the classic electromagnetic system.
”The discovery of neutrons fortifies the existence of particles. After a legendary sorcerer modifies the meditation of photons based on that, my spiritual particle and my soul will soar… As a matter of fact, there's already hope that I will advance into the third-circle very soon.” Blake thought to himself excitedly.
After Raventi, Gaston, Chloe and Lacie Carter proposed the random molecular movement of liquid and explained the nature of the phenomenon, the question of whether atoms existed had been determined, which made the sorcerers of the school of elements such as Blake improve more or less.
Ding, ding, ding. Something was ringing in his pocket. Blake hurried to take out the mobile communication item and pressed the button at the center.
”Hey, Blake, did you listen to Mr. Evans' speech just now?” Alfalia asked, her voice shivering.
Blake replied, equally unable to control his feelings. ”I did. It's truly a night of miracles tonight! Two revolutionary theoretical systems have been established!”
”Don't be so rash. Although the relativistic system can be proved by phenomena, it only means that the conclusion is correct and does not suggest that the procedures to reach the conclusion are so, until the Arcana Review Board examines it. Of course, I personally would like to believe in the explanation about the nature of gravity.” Alfalia tried to make herself sound calm, but she still expressed her admiration in the end.
In his excitement, Blake became straightforward and talkative. He chuckled, ”I'm very suspicious that the good sirs of the Arcana Review Board can understand the paper. It may require the grand arcanists to review.”
”I think so, too. Mr. Evans' basic introduction was already incomprehensible to me… Hu, I can't wait to confirm the existence of neutrons myself tomorrow…” Alfalia retained the basic rationally and knew she had to confirm the experiment in person. Because of her level, she did not have the advanced facilities such as cyclotron in her house.
Reminded by her, Blake also looked at the Allyn magic tower passionately. ”I don't think I can sleep tonight… After neutrons are proved, there will be three pillars in the field of arcana: Brook's electromagnetism, Evans' relativistic system that includes Mr. President's theories, and the new alchemy…”
”Yes. We need to call him His Excellency Evans now, though.” Alfalia smiled.
Blake replied, his voice drifting, ”Yes, His Excellency Evans!”
