The First Magic World War

Sarah wept all the way, while Renee spilled the entirety of her sister and Marin's affairs.

Marin was a New Worlder, and due to the chaos of the Evil God in the New Continent, he could no longer stay there and had no choice but to bring his adventure team back to the Old Continent. Although he possessed impressive martial skills, he was unable to secure a decent income and had to seek the patronage of Prince Aifuri. Relying on his elegant demeanor and his rare status as a High-Level Transcendent on the continent, he was involved in a romantic relationship with this royal princess.

Considering Miss Pumpkin and noticing that Renee was unwilling to get close to the Unicorn Deer, Charles came to a general understanding in his heart.

Marin was not a decent man.

Ah, Charles Meklen was not that sort of man.

Charles couldn't be bothered to speculate what exactly Marin wanted to do, but he was certain that Marin was up to no good; otherwise, with his abilities, after a few years of hard work, he should be able to land a respectable position in Fars, and marrying a princess might not be out of the question.

It's just that Marin definitely did not want to put in the hard work; he must have had a shortcut that Charles disliked!

In any case, Charles did not regret killing the man one bit.

If, for instance, the two Miss Axels had been "lost" in another place and it had nothing to do with him, Charles would have just laughed it off, not bothered to do anything about it, nor would he have become angry.

He would only care about matters related to himself, not about people who had nothing to do with him.

Just like in later generations on the internet, many people would fight for so-called justice for strangers thousands of miles away, but they might not have looked at their loved ones right beside them for a long time.

Charles was a mathematics teacher, out of step with the public. He didn't care about strangers, only about his friends and family close by. He didn't care about the distant New Continent, only about managing the future Earl's Domain of Nansela.

Nevertheless, through Renee's description, Charles learned a bit about the New Continent. He remembered the Female Pirate Red Hawk he met not long ago. At the time, he hadn't felt much, but now he truly sensed that life in the New Continent might indeed be "difficult."

Even Sacred Order and High-Level Transcendents could not survive there, one could imagine how tough life was.

But on the other hand, it seems that only those who possessed supernatural power like Red Hawk or Marin could leave the New Continent alive. Many ordinary people likely lacked the ability to escape even if they wished to leave.

Although this world is capable of building Magic Warships, the overall technological power is pretty backward, incapable of producing enough ships for mass migration between the two continents.

From the New Continent to the Old Continent, even if all the ships in the world worked together, they might only transport a few hundred thousand people per year. Moreover, how could it be possible for someone to organize all these ships? In terms of transportation between the two continents at the moment, for those looking to escape, it was but a drop in the bucket.

However, Charles also knew he was powerless to do anything about it. Even a Sacred Order like Red Hawk could only leave the New Continent in disappointment; what power or virtue did he possess that would enable him to save so many people?

He wasn't a deity after all.

Long ago, Charles had thought about going to the New Continent to find a solution to the threat of the Labyrinth Evil God that could descend at any moment. But now he finally understood the words of the Augusladin High Priest from before—proliferate offspring.

There probably wasn't a way in the New Continent to solve the Evil God issue, as the people there could only rely on high birth rates to contend with the frightening mortality rate. If there had been a way to fight the Evil Gods, why wouldn't they have used it?

Charles brought the two Miss Axels back to the small town of Rahmah.

After explaining a few words to Antonio, he let Antonio explain them to the two young ladies.

He really didn't want to touch this hot potato.

Antonio returned after a while, asking Charles to lend him a person. He hoped that Regulus could take two Miss Axels back to Strasbourg; the reason for choosing Agurus to escort them was that, being the oldest of the Sacred Order, he could minimize the likelihood of scandal.

Charles readily agreed, but upon hearing the request, Agurus refused to escort the two young ladies alone. Left with no choice, Charles had no choice but to send Vigo as well, letting the two of them take the young ladies back to Strasbourg.

Having settled the matter, Charles then inquired about Antonio's condition.

Antonio, quite pleased with himself, said lightly, "During the two days you were away, my strength has been steadily declining! Most of the power granted by the Goddess has already left me."

"However, I've secured the Twenty-fourth Order!"

"Although I used to be called the future strongest in Fars, it was only because I was young enough and not because my strength was that great. Aside from Father, there are many others whose strength surpasses mine."

"But from now on, you can call me the second strongest in Fars because, besides Father, there's no one else at the Twenty-fourth Order."

"Apart from Father, there's no one in Fars stronger than me now."

"Moreover, I have Dark Moon at my disposal!"

"Even Father, Constantine, Uncle Juno, and the Champagne Earl might not be able to defeat me in battle."

Looking at his elder nephew, Charles suddenly had a feeling that this was his most solid backup in the future!

That stick he had given initially was really worth it.

Charles and Antonio rested in Rahma for a full half-month, not only awaiting the return of Agurus and Vigo, but also allowing all of the Sacred Order to regain their strength and both knighthoods to recover their combat power.

Although they had suffered severe losses, with all eight Sacred Order members present, they still maintained overwhelming combat capabilities.

Antonio prepared to attack Duke Mosley's domain once again, and Charles had no objections. Just then, someone came to report that their captive, Mosley's brother Gareth, who had once summoned the Evil God, had awakened.

When the Black Dragon went to seize the Blood Spirit Rhinoceros, he also captured this member of the Sacred Order, who had been in a coma since then, his soul shattered by the Flame Evil God, leaving no one certain whether he could recover.

Charles only regretted that he didn't have another magic contract, or he would have made Gareth his butler by now.

Hearing that Gareth had awakened, even Antonio was quite surprised, and together with Charles, they went to see this seasoned member of the Empire's Sacred Order.

Although Gareth's fame and status were far inferior to his brother's, his strength was not much less than Mosley's; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to survive the summoning of the Evil God.

To put it into perspective, the real Charles Meklen could summon the Evil God and pass away instantly.

Now it is Teacher Charles Meklen Huang Hai Sheng.

When Charles saw Gareth, the Sacred Order member had eyes as innocent as a child's, and he looked around with a child-like curiosity.

A thought flickered in Charles's mind, musing, "Could he have lost his memory?" Testing, he called out, "Son! You're finally awake."
