Blood Of Platinum
Chapters 377. Being the Magic Council Division, We're Willing
No one said anything, not because they were short of words but because they were too shocked after hearing the opening sentence from Lucas.
“Here I want to say something most important”
“You all selected, must be ready to die”
A normal person would not say such a thing to a prospective chosen student. At least the law does not apply to Lucas.
The three teenagers from another world can not say anything and only express it through the mind.
‘How can Lucas Xelhanien-san say such a thing in public?’
‘He asks everyone ready to die?’
‘I can't believe they can get that close. But, if given their original purpose of holding the selection exam, I can understand’
At least Kaito knows about it. Not all participants understand.
Some even protested to Lucas.
“What does that mean?”
“We don't understand, why?!”
“Please describe now!”
All the members of the division who were in front were just staring seriously. From the other side, Luna and Piero, two friends whom Ryou met during the exam were whispering.
“I think we will hear a good welcome, it turns out even asked to be ready to die ya” murmured Piero slowly
Luna looks looking for someone in the crowd, “Where is Ryou? I heard his name was called earlier”
“Maybe covered by the people behind. But I did not think the contents of the first speech were asked to be ready to die”
“Isn't it obvious because that Magic Council is the protective frontline army of this eastern region?” luna said, “I'm really happy if I could be one of them!”
“Why?”
“Because can get a lot of money and connection. And the great thing is, we can work in the state government office without the entrance exam” Luna looks happy. He looks back to find Ryou.
“Ah!” Luna pulls Piero's hand, “That's Ryou! He's in the back!”
“Oi, we listen to the sentence of the leader of the Magic Council first”
“Ciii~”
Lucas saw the expressions of all of them, especially the ones that caught his attention were the Rebellenarmees who looked solemn and restrained like they were hiding something.
He again continued his sentence, “I ask you to prepare because you are students who were elected to be members of the Magic” Council Division
“As it is known that the Magic Council is not only a part of the Magic School Academy but also as a defense and assault unit that has the highest authority in the eastern region”
“Our role is to keep all the crimes from outside and will be the first troops that will advance to the battlefield when needed”
“Therefore I ask you to be ready with the worst possibility first which is dead”
Everyone was silent, no words came out. Lucas spoke again.
“All division members come from all walks of life. No matter you are rich or poor, nobles or commoners. I need power and ability”
“More than that, I need loyalty, honesty, responsibility and a sense of self-sacrifice for the sake of others and this country”
“Of course for those of you who are willing to join will gain authority and freedom in some respects, title, honor and the opportunity to climb the door higher than others”
“And of course, you also have to be ready to lose something to get it, which is life”
“Magic Board influence will bring you and all your loved ones within the honorable name circle”
“It will also be a sight for the country to make your race and residence more advanced than before”
“I don't care if you guys refuse because there is no coercion for this thing”
“However, I will never accept anyone who refuses to return to enter the Magic Council, even if he has done something priceless for us”
“Think carefully. If you choose to reject all of this, please come out. The guard will escort you directly to dorm”
For those who are willing to serve, they will get many good things and abundant benefits.
But for those less certain, life would be a costly price regardless of title and honor.
The three otherworldly teenagers observed the puzzled expressions of everyone there. Both Kino, Ryou and Kaito looked calm from the start. Their attention was also on Rebellenarmee.
Seen from a distance, Kino saw a Galactica that looked very serious.
‘Dia..the person brought by Algeria-san. I felt that when he first met us, he was like trying to hold his friends to talk too much’
‘There was an unusual feeling from him. Is he really not that bad?’
On the sides of the Rebellenarmee, each of them whispered to each other.
“How do you think?” ask Vares
“I don't know. The Master has said nothing to us about this and we ourselves never thought that it would be easy to enter the Magic Council” Virgo replied
Rayel saw Galactics, “Why?”
Galactica thought as Rayel called out to her.
‘I think it's a good thing’
‘Isn't this how our race will be looked upon well by everyone? We can bring glory back and can make everyone look at half elves well’
‘Duke Xelhanien might use this way to give me and my friends a chance’
Galaktika looked ahead, without anyone realizing it, Lucas glanced at him and looked at him. Galactica knew that his thinking was right.
‘I know that! Duke planned all this. It should be used!’
Galaktika looks towards his three friends, “We accept”
“What?”
“Maybe beyond your thoughts but with the advantages we will get after becoming a member of the division, we can–”
“You're right, Galaktika” Virgo smiled cunningly, “Kaito also became the chosen one and we can use it to help us later”
“Eh?”
“We can use all the authority we get to carry out the mission. It will be very perfect”
“Tu–”
“I agree with Virgo. Galactica, your idea is good. We'll take it.” Rayel also seems to agree with all of that
It was not Galactica's intention to say this but it seemed too late to hold back their thoughts.
Galaktika seems to be having a lot of work to convince the three of them after this.
In the end, none of the people elected to resign.
This is quite interesting because it turns out they are more concerned with authority, profits and money than life.
Lucas finally nodded.
“I'll assume this is your answer. With this, I declare that all of you are members of the Magic” Council Division
“I will never forgive betrayal. All the things you do are under my command”
“My answer, are you willing to become the Magic Council Division and vow to serve this Country?”
Everyone replied, “We are willing”
There is a unique fact that in fact, only the three youths from another world and three people from Rebellenarmee were silent without answering.
It is surprising that Galactica took the oath.
