Chapter 251
The picture Joshua took also contained the magic interface Gallolie was seeing. Although it was fuzzy, one could see the character Gallolie was controlling fighting against a rectangular shaped zombie.
“Game?”
After receiving the picture Joshua sent over, Madam Schroder confirmed that Gallolie was inside a warm and comfortable room instead of being surrounded by a bunch of undeads.
“It would appear that... I’ve been worrying needlessly,” Madam Schroder eased her worries. But soon, she became strict again, “Gallolie, you should be sleeping right now!”
“But... mother...” Gallolie’s voice immediately grew stiff. But, she quickly found a way to convince her mother, “Actually, Mister Joshua said what we’re doing is testing out the new server.”
As expected of a top-rated actress, Gallolie soon stabilized her mood and spoke in a fully-justified manner.
“New... server?”
Madam Schroder had no idea what a ‘server’ was. Using this opportunity, Gallolie turned around and looked at Joshua with pleading eyes.
Her reputation as the Flower of Farucci was not unwarranted. Joshua was certain that a lot of men would fall for her pitiful act to gladly help her.
But... seeing Gallolie, Joshua could only recall the time of his youth when he was driven out from the net cafe by his father with a stick.
Seeing that Gallolie was a fellow sufferer, Joshua emphasized with her and decided to help her this one time.
“Madam Schroder, the Blackwood Elves’ World Tree is currently lodging in Gallolie’s body,” Joshua took a glance at Priestess Oranka seated next to Gallolie. She nodded her head to express to Joshua that she was fine with him revealing that information to Gallolie’s mother.
“I already knew about that. Elder Safran has already informed me about it,” said Madam Schroder.
“Actually, the magic network you’re using right now is constructed with the World Tree as the core. The stronger the World Tree’s vitality is, the greater the magic network’s range.” Joshua walked over to Tylene and touched the leaf of the World Tree.
The World Tree lodging in Tylene’s body had already grown hundreds of leaves. Its branches were also starting to gradually harden. Likely, in a couple more months, Joshua would not be able to accommodate the World Tree in his study.
But, even though the World Tree was growing rapidly, it did not provide major improvements to the range of the magic network.
“I believe that the World Tree serving as the server for Norland’s magic network, even if it was to grow up into a giant tree that reaches the sky, would not be able to extend the range of the magic network to Farucci.”
When Joshua said those words, Tylene’s World Tree showed a slight amount of displeasure. It moved its branches to display its discontent.
“Is there no other way? After my daughter left, I was unable to connect with the magic network for a very long time. That sort of feeling is truly difficult to bear.”
Madam Schroder possesses the authority to manage Gallolie’s camp. In order to delete the ‘harassment’ replies on her camp, the amount of time Madam Schroder spent on the magic network was no less than Gallolie.
At the beginning, she did so to protect her daughter’s reputation. Over time, Madam Schroder started to use the Mage Forum as a means of communication with others. She even made two ‘close friends’ on the Mage Forum.
“You don’t have to worry about that. When Gallolie returns to Farucci, the World Tree lodging in her body will serve as the server for the magic network there. I believe that, within a few years, all the citizens of Farucci will be able to use the magic network,” said Joshua.
Hearing what Joshua said, Madam Schroder suddenly entered a brief moment of silence.
Madam Schroder admits that the various functions of the magic network, whether it be the Mage Forum or the camp, made things very convenient/
Now, she would no longer invite those sweet-talking minor nobles for afternoon tea. Instead, she would browse through the magic network to find interesting posts while drinking her tea.
Madam Schroder felt that communicating with others on the Mage Forum was much more interesting than communicating with people in real life.
Apart from that, the ‘voice chat’ function Joshua revealed to her was something very terrifying.
Once one could connect to the magic network, one will be able to disregard distance to connect with others. Such a function could alter the outcome of countless wars.
But, Madam Schroder had learned from Elder Safran’s private letter that the purpose of the Nation of the Holy Church’s Heresy Tribunal was the destruction of the World Trees. Now that the Blackwood Elves’ World Tree was lodging in Gallolie’s body and inseparable from her, it would mean that Gallolie would be the Heresy Tribunal’s next target.
“Mister Joshua, thank you for having Teacher Morgan bring back the evidence and exposing the true nature of the Holy Church’s Heresy Tribunal to Farucci’s king,” said Madam Schroder all of a sudden.
“What does Farucci’s king plan to do next?”
“Regretfully, His Majesty does not plan to declare war. But, we will no longer allow for those false missionaries to appear in our land.”
Hearing Madam Schroder’s pledge, Joshua felt like he had finally done something beneficial to the demons.
While Farucci might not necessarily become an ally of the demons after this incident, they will definitely become the enemies of the Nation of the Holy Church for the long foreseeable future.
“Regarding the Holy Church’s Heresy Tribunal, I can share with you all information I have about them.”
Joshua knew that it would be impossible for Gallolie to stay in Norland forever. One day, she would have to return to her home country.
“Information regarding the Heresy Tribunal? Mister Joshua, what do you know?”
That was something Madam Schroder wanted to know the most right now. After all, the Nation of the Holy Church’s Heresy Tribunal remains a mystery in this world.
Even though the nobles of the various countries all, more or less, knew about this terrifying organization, very few nobles had actually come in contact with them. Thus, all their knowledge about the Heresy Tribunal were hearsays and rumors.
“There’s a novel in the Mage Forum’s Motionless Library sub-forum by the name ‘Diary of an Inquisitor.’ That ReadNovelFully detailed the Heresy Tribunal.”
Joshua began to recommend the work written by the defector inquisitor Cheryl.
“There’s actually information regarding the Heresy Tribunal on the Mage Forum? My gratitude. I will find time to check out the Motionless Library...”
Even though Madam Schroder would log onto the Mage Forum whenever she had her afternoon tea, she rarely visited the Motionless Library sub-forum.
“Apart from that, allow me to inform you about the inquisitor’s weakness. I had fought against them several times. Their minds are in a perpetual state of instability. Magic capable of affecting one’s mind is fatal to them. For example, the screams and soul-intimidation from the Banshees...”
After spending some time providing these informations to Madam Schroder, Tylene and her rescuer Gallolie were completely surrounded by the undeads and died in battle.
With that, Joshua declared, “Let’s call it a day for the tests.” He took a glance at the time. To a still-growing girl, it was indeed time to go to bed.
“Wuuu...” Gallolie was still reluctant to stop. But, because of the pressure from her mother, she had no choice but to bid farewell to Joshua.
