Mage Joan

If Benedict Laval publicly admitted that he had indeed borrowed the power of the devil in the war, no matter what his hardships were, he would personally destroy his public image and social reputation. The Midgard colonial government and military also Will be implicated by him and fall into the whirlpool of scandal.

Governor William Nichols had read the report of the "Yortenheim News" and was so anxious that he quickly instructed a local newspaper to publish a rumor and denied all the malicious defamation of Baron Laval.

However, he also knows that it is not very useful to publish rumors in the newspaper. Thousands of people on both sides of the battlefield have witnessed Baron Laval summoning the devil. The trail about this matter was published before the public disclosure of the "Jodenheim News". The news has been spread all over the city, and there are too many witnesses, and they can't stop others' mouths!

In such a passive situation, Governor Nichols can only write to Baron Laval, who is still on the front line, and ask him to come forward to "dispel rumors" in order to listen to it.

Baron Laval is a war hero in the colony of Midgard, an idol of thousands of passionate youth. His reputation and influence can be transformed into real credibility.

As long as he denies the Feizhen’s accusation personally, and denounces it as an obscene means of making rumors and slander, trying to replace his sword and gun with his tongue, to save his face for the defeat on the battlefield, then regardless of the facts, all Midgards who have not been there They will believe that their beloved Commander is indeed discredited by the enemy, and the enemy will defend the reputation of Baron Laval.

Governor Nichols had a very good idea, but he never thought that Baron Laval refused to refute the rumors himself, and remained silent about collusion with demons.

Baron Laval also stated in his reply to His Excellency:

"The call to the Iron Rider on the battlefield was really compelling at the time, but I didn't want to explain it, and I didn't even bother to complain to people."

"I can choose not to speak, but I can't say anything against my heart. Please forgive me for my silence."

Governor Nichols was almost blown away by this reply from Baron Laval!

In a rage, he wrote another letter, criticizing him for being too naive, and doing things only based on personal preference, using his will, and completely disregarding the overall situation.

After scolding his head and covering his face, Governor Nichols sighed a little, and put on a bitter voice, persuading Laval to mature.

"The sign of a man’s political maturity is to learn to treat lies correctly, to use lies appropriately, and to sacrifice his own moral cleanliness for the sake of the overall situation, Ben, I hope you can get past this threshold, although this is for you It's not easy."

Governor Nichols sent a second letter hopefully, but he failed to receive a reply from Baron Laval.

Not replying is a statement in itself, Governor Nichols has to give up on this stubborn man completely.

Feizhen’s accusations can be reported in the newspapers to "refute rumors." The rumours in the city can be deaf and dumb, but there is one thing Governor Nichols must take seriously-the war report submitted to the imperial authorities.

It was a great victory, Governor Nichols planned to make a big contribution in the report, and the victory of the Battle of Lake Aosta proved that the emperor’s subjects in overseas colonies did not lack the courage to serve the country with allegiance to defend the territory. In order to strive for the imperial authorities to send troops from the homeland as soon as possible to support and fight against the invaders with the colonial compatriots.

Since the merits are to be rewarded, it is logical that Baron Laval was the colonial garrison and the frontline commander of the Battle of Lake Aosta, but Governor Nichols had to take care of the scandal.

The religious atmosphere of the Ashan Empire is much harsher than that of the colonies. The Inquisitions are arrogant, and they are investigating and arresting so-called "heretics" or "demon believers", either sent to the fire torture rack, or sentenced to life-long exile.

The Far Eastern province of the empire was a place of exile dedicated to punish heretics.

The reason why the Far Eastern province set off a rebellion was directly induced by the imperial authorities who did not treat heretic criminals in exile as human beings, and excessive exploitation and squeezing forced the exiles to survive and had to rise up to rebel.

Even overseas colonies such as Midgard and Yalfheim have always been destinations for those pagans who refused to accept the state religion in the empire.

The reason why the colonies formed such a more relaxed religious belief atmosphere is because a large part of the colonists were pagans who fled the empire's native land for religious rather than economic reasons.

Governor Nichols himself tended to pursue a policy of religious easing, but he had to take into consideration that the customs of the empire were very different from the colonies. If he made Baron Laval a perfect war hero in the battle report submitted to the imperial government, 10,000 The scandal of Laval colluding with demons returned to the empire's homeland, aroused the attention of the public opinion, and his situation was embarrassing.

Governor Nichols did not want to do bad things kindly and sent Barr Laval to the torture rack.

Under desperation, he could only dilute the achievements of Baron Laval in the battle report.

Since Baron Laval is not suitable to be a hero of war, there must always be someone to receive his first merit.

Judging from the actual performance on the battlefield, Lord Castis and Logan Walsonge both praised the entourage mage Joan Vida, claiming that the talented teenager of Midgard University played a role in the war. The effect is at least worth the strength of a battalion.

Governor Nichols has long heard of Joan Vida’s genius. Dean Franklin of the School of Austrian Law at Midgard University treats this student as a treasure, but these reputations are still limited to the academic field. You really didn't expect that Dr. Aofah, who has published many heavyweight papers at the age of 15, actually achieved the same outstanding results on the battlefield as his academic achievements.

Young people like Dr. Vader who can immerse themselves in learning and be competent in "strategic weapons" on the battlefield can be described as "civilian and military talents". They are rare in the world, and of course they are worth writing in the war report by Governor Nichols. , Established as a typical representative of the young elites of the colony.

However, Joan Vida is too young, and his age is not only his greatest advantage, but also a hidden disadvantage.

Joan’s position in the army was only Sir Castis’s adjutant and entourage mage of the Walsonge Corps. Although he played a far greater role on the battlefield than his duties, he could not change the fact that this young man Man is only a small role, and can be commended as a student representative who volunteers to join the army, but it is not suitable for propaganda as a "commander" level commander of the army.

Although Joanne Vader is very talented, it is a pity that he is too young, his position is too low, his qualifications are too shallow, and he cannot bear the banner of "primary hero".
