Chapter 2 Mess

At night, the large study room is filled with various kinds of books, many of which are absolutely uncirculated, and the most precious one is undoubtedly the bookcase with multi-layered magic protection in the most conspicuous position.

It is a relic of Caledor Dragon Tamer, one of the greatest heroes of Assur, the first dragon prince. It contains many precious magic manuscripts, and even the original design of the Maelstrom can be found in this bookcase.

turn up.

The White Tower of Hoth had many times wanted to have these precious manuscripts under their protection in the name of Assur's destiny, but the proud previous dragon lord did not allow those weak mages to come into contact with these precious manuscripts that symbolized the honor of Caledor.

treasure.

Regarding this matter, Imric could only say that the Long Aotians of Caledor were the real Dragon Aotians. Apart from admiring the glory of their ancestors, what else could they do with these treasures.

On the large desk, Imrik was learning about the specific information about Caledor he had collected in the past few days. Looking at the beautiful symbols and text in front of him, he could only be thankful that he had inherited the memory of the original owner, otherwise he would have become illiterate.

.

The complexity of Asur's language and writing makes it a little hard for Imrik to imagine that the same word has several different meanings in different moods, tones, and contexts. In addition, with the variety of parts of speech and word patterns, this means

Most of the time, you may need to rely on guessing to understand what the other person wants to express.

"No wonder these pointy-eared people are engaged in palace struggles all day long. They usually talk in a foggy way. It's really confusing."

But now is not the time to complain about how strange the Asur language is. Looking at the report in front of them, they can only gradually frown. The more they read, the more they feel that the situation in Caledor is not optimistic, and they are still immersed in the glory of their ancestors.

middle.

Just a month ago, Imrik's father was killed by the sudden Kane assassin when he rode a dragon towards a hydra due to his fight with Druzi, and the dragon was also pulled away.

Naggarond was used as specimen material. Although the brave Dragon Prince, who was not afraid of death, took back his father's body, this was undoubtedly a huge blow to Caledor.

Many times, it is necessary to use some grandfather's weapons to resist foreign enemies, and Caledor is the center of Ulthuan's arms manufacturing. According to the agreements between the three Caledor Phoenix Kings and other kingdoms, Caledor needs every year

Providing a large amount of equipment to other kingdoms made the already tight military even more stretched. However, this was not free, and it barely guaranteed Caledo's financial situation.

After carefully checking the condition of the book, Imric could not guarantee whether this thing would be a trick of the old bird Tzeentch. A few days ago, he went to the Vaal Temple in Vaal Anvil to be baptized, except

Apart from the fact that it feels a little tougher, nothing has happened. I think this thing is reliable for the time being and is Imric's only choice now.

Since Fenubar was crowned Phoenix King, Ulthuan has become the center of world trade. Precious silks from far-off Cathay, vodka from Kislev, specialties from various empires, truffles from Bretonnia, etc. can be found in

Ulthuan discovered that other kingdoms were making a lot of money from this trade, but Caledor was not.

Looking away from the desk, Imrik concentrated on immersing himself in his spiritual world. A book wrapped in yellow cowhide appeared in his consciousness. This was the golden finger that Imrik brought.

I haven’t yet figured out what function this thing has. Every time I try to concentrate on opening it, I only lift it halfway and nothing happens.

As the time that this thing enters this world gradually increases, the extent to which it can be opened will become wider. It is expected that it will be opened in five days, that is, after the inheritance ceremony. I only hope that this thing can have some effect.

Otherwise, Imric may have to do what the original owner did in the game and travel around the world to find ancient dragons to enhance Caledor's strength.

Coupled with the already sparse population, this matter became a vicious cycle. Soldiers died due to equipment issues. The Vaal Anvil needed manpower to maintain. The gradually decreasing population and unreplaced weapons, coupled with the gradual decline in the number of sleeping dragons,

The increase has caused Caledor's military strength to be in a slow decline.

"This mess is really difficult to deal with. The rugged terrain of the Dragon's Back Mountains makes it difficult to form a large-scale gathering place. Coupled with the already sparse population, it is definitely not possible to slowly farm. And Caledor is in Ulthuan.

The bad reputation cannot attract a large number of people to move in like Itaien, so we must find an overseas colony to expand and absorb the population."

And that's not the only thing that's terrible. The temperature of the Vaal Anvil located at the end of the Dragon's Back Mountains has dropped due to the gradual loss of volcano activity, causing the total production of armaments to decrease all the time.

Five days later, Imric will inherit the position of prince, hold a succession ceremony in the Dragon Palace, and legitimately become the Prince of Caledor. Theoretically, this is not a bad thing for the time traveler Imric, because

You can directly obtain the supreme leadership of Caledor and then prepare for the end, but the mess left by the original owner's father can only be said to be a pure-blooded Prince of Caledor.

Seeing this situation, Imric just wanted to shake up the corpse of the late king lying in the coffin. What do you think? You said that these lower races are not worthy of trading with Caledor. The Dragon Prince's lance can stab them.

Wear all enemies.

Picking up the quill in his hand, Imric signed the letter sent to him by the high priest of the Vaal Priesthood. The high priest hoped that Imric could send some people from the mage tower to maintain the temperature of the volcano. Hoth

The White Tower has no hope. The Vaal Priesthood itself has some conflicts with the White Tower of Hoth. They always believe that the weapons of the Hoth Sword Masters shamelessly plagiarize Vaal's wisdom, and the relationship between the two parties has never been harmonious.

He bowed his head and continued to deal with the remaining paperwork. Although Caledor had a lot of messes, fortunately because of the country's establishment of a country by force, most disputes were resolved by fighting. There were few cases like other kingdoms.

The same endless palace struggle.

The few civil servants are also unable to take practical actions due to lack of influence. In addition, the dragon tamer family is even rarer than the descendants of Aenarion. Currently, only Imrik can clearly identify his identity and have pure blood.

If people want to start a palace struggle, they can only do it around Imrik. But with the temper of his former predecessor, Imrik, I can already imagine how he will answer.

"You are tarnishing Caledor's honor with your shameless behavior."

He stopped thinking about it and continued to deal with the few paperwork. Having just traveled to this world, Imric didn't trust anyone to help him deal with these things, especially Asul, who was famous for his internal strife. He would never be cautious.

It's a bad thing.
