Chapter 5 Coronation Ceremony
The news that Teros was successfully promoted to a formal mage soon spread throughout the Principality of Zakaland and quickly spread throughout the small world of Patos.
The rulers of other mage priests responded to this. Some were surprised that the great mage civilization had added another formal mage, while others were worried that the political structure of Patos's world was no longer balanced.
Just as the official mages expressed their congratulations out of courtesy, another news followed one after another, Zach, the founder and ruler of Zach, the first-level formal mage, soon left Patos and embarked on the road to hunting the source mage.
For a moment, everyone didn't know what to think.
But no matter what, the promotion and coronation celebration of Tyros was held as scheduled.
On this day, the entire Zakaland Port was very lively, and celebration crowds from all over the country were gathered.
There are even more crowds of people in the Wangdu Square in the north of the city.
After various large-scale performances, the coronation ceremony finally came to the final stage.
"Hey, Bud, there are so many people on the platform, which one is our wizard lord?" A civilian in the crowd pointed at several figures on the platform in the distance and asked at his companions around him.
"Pip, you are a fool. Of course, the one sitting in the middle is gray-white, and you can see that you are extremely powerful at first glance." The companion replied. The sunlight at noon was a bit dazzling. He squinted his eyes, but still couldn't see the scene in the distance.
"Today is the promotion and coronation ceremony of Master Tyros. Well, I guess it's that black-haired young man."
"Tsk, you're a foreigner at first glance." One person next to him heard the conversation between the two and said contempt, with an unhidden contempt in his eyes. "I'm afraid I've never been to Zakaland in my life."
"Oh? What did you say? Living in Port Zakaland is amazing."
"Tell you these uninformed out-of-towners, that black-haired young man is our Lord Zach. The old man is Dean of Teros, and of course he will soon be Lord Teros Mage."
"Ah? Is our lord so young?"
"You have just arrived here. I guess I missed the previous event. Let me tell you that two days ago, even the neighboring country's wizard Craigie and Simon Hall came to celebrate. That scene..." The locals began to talk nonstop.
The noon sun shines on the Mage Tower in the middle of the city, and huge shadows are cast on the ground, and the entire capital is like a huge sundial.
The huge shadow slowly swept through the dense buildings, covering the crowded Wangdu Square.
Pipp and Bard finally saw the ongoing ceremony on the platform.
———————————————
Tyros knelt on one knee in front of Zach, stroked his right hand with his chest, and a solemn voice spread throughout the square:
"I swear in the name of the origin. My magic only serves and origins, and there is no other picture. I will protect life, maintain order, relieve pain, and eliminate chaos. I strive for natural prosperity and the happiness of all peoples. When necessary, I will put fear and death out of the way, and sacrifice to fight chaos and protect the origin."
Zach nodded: "Everything is over, only magic is eternal."
"When everything is over, only magic is eternal." Tyros repeated the oath.
Zach took a gorgeous scepter from the servant beside him and slowly placed it on Tyros' raised hands.
"Stand up Tyros, as a wizard, as the ruler of Zachaland, as the guardian of millions of people."
Tyros slowly stood up. Compared to a few months ago, his wrinkled face was much younger, and his snow-white beard had turned gray. Now he looks like he is only in his fifties.
This is the effect of being promoted to a formal mage.
He turned around and walked towards the edge of the platform, facing the square where thousands of people gathered, took a deep breath, and raised the scepter in his hand.
A huge cheer burst out from the crowd instantly, and waves rose higher and higher, swept across the square and spread throughout the capital.
People celebrate the birth of a mage and look forward to the prosperity and happiness future brought to them by the new lord.
Just as the entire square was immersed in a joyful atmosphere, a mage apprentice ran up to the platform in a panic look.
He glanced at the big men on the platform in horror, and then ran to the one closest to him - a short brown robed wizard.
When he approached, he whispered:
"Pulman Administrator, General Grantham asked to see Lord Zach."
"Bastard, what is this occasion? Get out of here!" the short brown-robed mage shouted in a low voice.
Pullman, the administrator of the Principality of Master Zakaland, leads all administrative affairs in the country. Like Tyros, who is in charge of the Mage Academy, he is directly responsible to Zach.
As a high-level trainee mage, he is also a popular candidate for promotion to a formal mage. Now Tyros has taken the lead and has become his lord, which makes him very annoyed.
Standing on the stage, he was trying to control his emotions so that he could barely keep his smile, and this inexplicable mage apprentice almost failed.
Zach noticed the noise behind him and turned around and looked over.
"Pulman, what's going on?"
"I don't know where this mage apprentice came out." Before Pullman finished speaking, the mage apprentice knelt directly on the ground.
"Lord Zach, yes... General Grantham sent me. He has just arrived in the capital and hopes to meet you immediately."
"I told you to shut up..."
Zach waved his hand and asked him to swallow the scolding that had just reached his mouth.
"May I have your name?"
"The student is named Valen, a seventh-grade mage apprentice. He is the attendant of General Grantham."
"You get up first."
The apprentice hesitated for a moment and stood up tremblingly, but still maintained an extremely respectful attitude.
"Valun, I didn't hear that the army entered the city today, why did he suddenly appear in the capital? Besides, why didn't he come to see me by himself, but sent an apprentice?"
"Return...Return to Lord Lord, General Grantham, he... He suddenly returned to the capital an hour ago...he was alone, and...and was seriously injured. The student has been staying in the capital and is the only person that the general can assign now."
"What happened?" Zach couldn't help asking.
"The general has been silent about his experience, so... so the student really doesn't know the inside story." The apprentice quickly pointed to a building on the side of the square, adding that "the general is in the Executive Yuan at this time and is undergoing emergency treatment."
The apprentice's words made Pullman stunned and didn't know what to react for a moment. Other trainee mages also came over to hear the sound.
"Let's go, Valen, take me to see him."
