After all... they can't escape.
"Speaker, I believe the punitive force bears full responsibility for this incident!"
At the highest council of the Magic Association, some members immediately jumped out to distance themselves from Arcueid after seeing him join the Far East Magic Association.
He was the representative of his own faction, and then several other factions came forward to agree with this view.
As for the hardliners behind the captain...
The representative of this faction is the speaker himself.
Seeing this, the old man sighed helplessly, nodded, and delivered his final verdict on the punitive expedition.
"I know, well... let's put the bigger picture first!"
....
63. We will surely be able to take their place!
After Arcueid joined the pantheon, Merlin and Blackwing became her two servants the moment they nodded in agreement.
The current divine group is completely different from the one before. Coupled with Mei Lian and Black Wing Duke's previous speculation about Roland's identity, after Roland finished introducing the divine group, the two looked at each other and even Black Wing Duke, who usually had no expression, couldn't help but be surprised.
After all, the Age of Gods is over.
Roland, as a god living in this era, should also be the only god.
Such a god not only did not face rejection from the suppressive force, but also gained its approval.
Then they started building up a group of gods.
With all these events connected, it's no wonder they had their doubts.
With these thoughts combined with the series of benefits the God Group was currently receiving, a sense of mission almost instantly invaded their minds.
Arcueid, on the other hand, just smiled and occasionally asked questions when she didn't understand something, but otherwise didn't react much.
After all, she already considered herself Roland's weapon. She judged that as Roland's weapon, she needed to acquire and communicate with the relevant abilities, so she did. As for anything else—it didn't matter!
As a weapon, you don't need to think so much.
Just do whatever Roland tells you to do!
However, if I had to mention a personal wish...
"Roland, if I get any information about a guy named Roya, can I go and kill him?"
Arcueid remembered this and tried to ask Roland about it. Roland then told her about Roja.
When Arcueid learned that Roya was dead, she didn't question it. She just felt a sense of relief, like a cat stretching after its fur has been ruffled.
Then she went back to her previous smiling expression and stopped talking.
There's not much to say about this to Arcueid—even if Arcueid wanted evidence, Roland could have Tiamat separate Roland's aura from the Sea of Life.
However, Arcueid was not the only person involved in this matter; Aozaki Touko's disciple, and also the only member besides Touko who contributed to the Far East Magic Association when it was established—Kurotou Senka.
Roya used a new reincarnation method to possess Kurogiri Mikiya.
Therefore, the dried black tung tree is essentially dead.
Roland knew that Aozaki Touko hadn't told Kurokiri Senka about this, and she didn't know how to tell her.
As a result, Kokutō Senka now spends most of her time searching for Kokutō Mikiya.
It's a bit more troublesome here than Arcueid.
Roland believed that such matters should be dealt with decisively, but Orange seemed to have other plans, so Roland remained silent.
After explaining to Arcueid, Melian, and Blackwing, Roland led them to greet the new members of the Far East Magic Association who had been watching the battle in Einzbernburg, thus establishing his authority. He also had Medea stop the live stream and finally had Ilya arrange temporary accommodation for Arcueid and the others in Einzbernburg.
After that, Roland returned to his room to study the enhancement points.
Roland can use enhancement points to participate in a lottery.
But he didn't.
Rather than horizontal upgrades, what he needs now is vertical upgrades, to deeply explore existing capabilities.
This made him look at the panel displayed on the [God Group System] and start thinking.
He has very few talents, and if we're talking about prioritizing strengthening talents, then those are definitely not his talents.
Magic doesn't actually need to be strengthened... because magic can be studied and leveled up gradually, which is different from skills.
As for his skills, to be honest, Roland really wanted to improve his martial arts, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt it was unnecessary.
So, after thinking it over, most people still can't find a way to upgrade. They don't know what skills they got when they drew them, or what skills they should prioritize using enhancement points for now.
Speaking of skills, the vast majority of Roland's skills are shadow-based skills.
Only two are not.
This is not two separate entities: first, gravitational manipulation, and then an invisible hand.
Compared to the combo effects of shadow-type skills, which can basically be linked together, Gravity Manipulation and Invisible Hand are two skills that Roland can easily and directly improve by strengthening.
Ultimately, Roland opted for gravity manipulation.
After all, while the Invisible Hand is the kind of skill that Roland felt could not be improved at all without using enhancement points, the advantages brought by the enhancement of Gravity Manipulation are definitely greater.
As Roland used his enhancement points on gravity manipulation, he felt his perception and control over gravity increase dramatically in an instant!
The skill itself hasn't changed, but its power is completely different!
Roland slightly raised his head while sensing gravity. He could even feel the meteorites in the universe, and it seemed that if he wanted to, he could pull the meteorites down in an instant!
Logically speaking, this is something that should not be possible.
After all, meteorites wear down after entering the atmosphere. If any meteorite could fall to the ground, the Earth would definitely not be what it is today.
However, after Roland learned of Gaia's goodwill towards him, he knew that if he did so, Gaia would ensure that the meteorite fell smoothly and without any obstruction.
Whether it's an island, a mountain peak, or a mountain range, even if it's destroyed, it's not a big problem for Gaia; if it wants to, it can generate a new one in no time.
Having realized this, Roland, though unable to pull the meteorite down, still manipulated gravity inside the Earth for quite some time.
It has to be said that when you can manipulate gravity, it's as if you've grasped the whole world. In your perception, it's as if you've held everything in your hands, as if you've mastered the most powerful force in the world!
Previously, the power and scale of gravity manipulation were very small, so it wasn't very interesting to play with.
Now that it's on such a large scale, even Roland spent several days working on it.
Until those magic families, guided by the Magicians' Association, found Einzbernburg.
This was part of Roland's plan.
When they arrived, Roland took Arcueid directly to greet them.
Roland had been wondering if he should give them a good talking-to after they caused such a ruckus at the Magic Association.
In reality, none of these guys were fools. Before they saw Arcueid, they were incredibly nice to Roland, and after seeing Arcueid, they almost treated Roland like family.
Seeing them like this, Roland was reminded of the sentence he had seen before he traveled through time.
When someone tells you you have the ability to flip a table, then you'd better actually have it.
After the Magic Association's method of guiding Arcueid was seen, these magic families realized that the Magic Association was using false information and could only guide, and could even be interfered with. So they dared to go to the Magic Association and use this as an excuse to cause trouble.
But the moment Roland actually held Arcueid in his hand, all the doubts from these guys vanished.
However, their purpose in coming to Eindzbernburg remained unchanged.
They planned to come to the newly formed faction of the Magic Association to try and secure several promotion opportunities.
To put it bluntly, some of them want to become council families of the Far East Magic Association, similar to the monarchical families of the Clock Tower.
They don't insist, but they'll try to get a spot if there's an opening.
Roland was aware of this as well. He first arranged for the representatives of those medium to large magic families, and then gathered the representatives of the large magic families in the huge conference room.
"I know why you've come here."
Roland first clarified the matter, and then, after they had cheered up, Roland offered a suggestion.
"Even if the Mage Association changes from three forces to four forces, adding a branch, the number of positions available to you will still be very limited. Look, even the Clock Tower monarchs are only a handful, and we've already secured quite a few positions on our side."
"Moreover, you can tell from the name of the Far East Magic Association that it is located in the Far East, while you are all European magic families who have been running your businesses in Europe for so many years, which is inconvenient."
"Compared to the Far East Mage Association, whose headquarters are located in the Clock Tower's Supreme Council, isn't that closer to you, with more space, and more readily available?"
As Roland said this, he leisurely picked up his teacup and, with a smile, continued to speak to Fang.
"So why don't we be more straightforward? Since you've already joined forces, let's go all out—we'll take the Far East Magic Association down with us, remove the 'Far East' from the name, and directly replace the existing Supreme Council of the Magic Association. What do you think?"
....
64. For the greater good
what! ?
Upon hearing Roland's words, all the magic families present widened their eyes!
They really didn't expect Roland's ambitions to be so great!
