Mag wiped away the military wax seal on the letter. He was not at all touched by this nostalgic card.

The content was not long. It was a handwritten letter from Andre.

The content was very simple. Firstly, Andre thanked Mag for saving the world, and congratulated him on advancing in terms of strength once again. After that, Andre suggested meeting up with him hoping to bury the hatchet, and to make an important decision for the future of humans and the Roth Empire.

“What did he say?” Irina asked with a smile.

“Nonsense.” Mag passed the letter to Irina.

“Only people from the Edward Family could come up with something so shameless.” Irina pressed her lips together, and looked at Mag. “Are you going?”

“I didn’t want to go, but maybe I can consider going now.” Mag thought for a while. He nodded, and said, “We need world peace, and what Andre wants is to rule over the entire world. These two are opposites, but if we aren’t able to sit down for a talk, it will probably be difficult to come to a consensus at the peace talks a few days later.”

“What do you intend to talk to him about? To let him embrace peace? I’m afraid he’s not one to do that.”

“No. I just want him to know that I am currently really powerful. If he sends out most of his powerhouses to start a war, I will be able to kill him. If he keeps his powerhouses by his side to protect the royal family, then the Roth Empire will not have a chance at winning the war.” Mag smiled.

“Why don’t we go together? I like watching you act cocky.” Irina’s eyes lit up. “I am very powerful too. The two of us together would be even more popular.”

“This is a good suggestion.” Mag nodded. With the two of them acting cocky, they would achieve double the results. “How was your talk with Helena yesterday?”

“It failed. She’s still insistent, and refuses to change the current regime. My bottom line is to abolish feudalism, but she would not accept it, so there’s nothing to talk about.” Irina shook her head. She smiled, and said, “But after you attracted the lightning strike onto the octopus monster, many elves who had been imprisoned in the various races have been sent over to Chaos City successively. Most of them have joined the Night Elves. As of today, we have almost 10,000 of us.”

“Are you getting ready to arm them up and free the Wind Forest completely?”

“No. My thoughts have changed after staying in Chaos City for a while.” Irina smiled. “The elves who followed me to Chaos City were mostly slaves and servants from the various noble families. It would be difficult for them to form a strong army with their strength and talent even if they were to train hard.

“What I wanted to bring them was equality, love, and freedom, and these are what they could achieve by living in Chaos City. They just have to adjust from the life of being given a living in the forest to earning a living on their own to buy their basic necessities.

“The existence of the Night Elves is just like opening a slit in the Wind Forest. A part of the base of the feudal system that had been reinforced over the century was dug out, and with time, the change would happen.”

Mag pondered Irina’s words. He looked at Irina with admiration, and said, “That’s great.”

Someone who could reach this level of enlightenment to know what one wanted and what others wanted was hard to find.

“Of course, that would not mean that I’m not going to do anything. I will become the sharpest knife to slowly deepen and widen the slit until those stubborn fellows are completely engulfed.” Irina clenched her fists.

Mag smiled even more brightly. The woman he loved indeed.

“I heard that a woman had tea with you this morning?” Irina placed the letter on the table, and looked at Mag with a smile. “Was she sitting where I’m sitting right now?”

Mag’s smile stiffened gradually. Although Irina’s smile was still as enchanting, it seemed as though there was a sharp knife hidden behind the beauty of it.

“Ah, you mean Teacher Luna? She’s Amy’s teacher. She came in the morning to discuss certain matters related to the foundation.” Mag’s smile became natural again. “She set up a foundation to help children in Chaos City who have no money to receive an education so that they could go to school and have enough food to eat.

“A while ago, Amy and I weren’t doing so well, and she helped us a lot, so I have donated a sum of money to the foundation she set up since the restaurant’s opening.”

“Amy has mentioned this teacher to me.” Irina thought for a while. She nodded, and said, “In that case, I’ll find some time to visit her to thank her for her care and concern for Amy.”

“Er…” Mag sized Irina up. He was unsure if she was really going to thank Teacher Luna, or if she wanted to assert her dominance. However, he said, “Mm-hm, up to you.”

“Oh, right. I went to meet Scheer from the Buffett Family today,” Irina suddenly started.

“She came to talk about a partnership with me. She wanted to hire a batch of skilled workers from the Night Elves to operate the steam engine,” Irina said proudly. “You know, the elves have always been very fast learners. On top of that, Ashley has been rotating the workers who were operating the steam engine, so there are already hundreds of workers who are adept in operating the machine.”

Mag was relieved. Smiling, he said, “Those would be highly paid technicians. Their salary should be rather high, right?”

“Mm-hm. An annual salary of 500,000 copper coins. On top of that, there would be a one-time transfer fee of 500,000 copper coins for every Night Elf she hired.” Irina nodded.

“Why don’t we open a training school?”New chapters are published on ɴovᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet

“That’s what I was thinking too.”

The difficulty of operating the steam engine was not great. However, Scheer was in need of a batch of adept workers, and on top of that, elves were very good workers. Therefore, she quoted such a high price.

Irina had already agreed to work with Scheer. The first 10 elves had already signed the contract, and were getting ready to move over to Scheer’s side.

The annual salary of 500,000 was way higher than that of the textile factory. This was also the highest salary the Night Elves had received in Chaos City.

Irina did not prevent the elves from developing outside, and even encouraged them to slowly blend into Chaos City to become residents here.

“Say, what position do you think Amy can get in this year’s Magic Caster Tournament?” Irina asked Mag with a smile.

“I remember that when you joined the Magic Caster Tournament when you were 16, you clinched the champion title.” Mag thought for a while. “Amy is only four. Do you think the top 32 would be a little too much?”

“She’s our daughter. It wouldn’t be too much even if she became the champion,” Irina said matter-of-factly..
