"Your Highness, could you please transfer the dragon materials to us at the Ministry of Magic?"
The main course arrived.
Leon was sitting on the main seat of the banquet, and a tall man with red hair wearing a monocle walked over and said with a fake and unpleasant smile:
This person is the president of the Ministry of Magic, and is the enemy of Leon and Anis, who founded "magic". Furthermore, he himself was also a supporter of Algard in the past.
"This is the dragon that my sister and I hunt. Whether according to the laws of the kingdom or the rules of adventurers, it belongs only to my sister and me. You want us to transfer it... What is the reason?"
"Of course it is for the development of the kingdom. As long as we have dragon materials, we can certainly develop more and more powerful magic! This is for the belief in magic..."
"Hahaha, That's ridiculous."
Leon held his chin and sneered.
Seeing him being so disrespectful, many nobles present were shocked.
I didn't expect Leon's attitude to be so "brilliant". If it were them, they would definitely choose "diplomatic handling".
"Dragon magic cannot be obtained by studying corpses unless the dragon voluntarily bestows it on humans."
"This this..."
Leon from Dragon Tamer said this, which was certainly convincing. The president of the Ministry of Magic was immediately stunned. In fact, studying dragon magic is just a disguise.
Only possessing dragon materials can gain prestige, and the Ministry of Magic is still planning to stop Leon and Anis from using dragon materials to develop more powerful magical items and further threaten the authority of the nobles.
"Your highness, please consider the kingdom."
"You're just an ignorant fool."
Leon seemed to be looking at an insect. He hated people who were so obsessed with profit that they couldn't see the situation clearly. Even if they considered him an opponent, he would lose value.
"Considering the kingdom? Yes, then I declare that from now on... all research funds in the Ministry of Magic will belong to my sister."
"Your Highness Leon, how could you do this!" The provincial governor was immediately shocked.
"My decision is the highest royal order besides the king. Do you want to resist the decree?"
"Such a decree is obviously ridiculous. How can you use your power for personal gain?"
The president of the Ministry of Magic was sweating like rain. He hadn't planned on going this far to start a war with Leon. He just wanted to get materials today.
But Leon directly affected his life force!
This is bad!
The funding received by the Ministry of Magic every year is an astronomical amount. Although they don't use much to study magic, other places that are not studying magic have to spend a lot, such as silently stealing some of it.
"Why would I be using my power for personal gain? I'm obviously thinking of the kingdom, but your Ministry of Magic hasn't researched new magic in decades. My sister and I already create magical items that come out every year that can flow to people and benefit our kingdom."
Leon crossed his fingers and said sarcastically.
"Did you know? Not producing results is called incompetence. I have no interest in incompetent people, and I have no intention of wasting any more resources on you losers."
"!!!"xN
The nobles present couldn't help but tremble as soon as those words came out. They felt that Leon's words seemed not only to the Ministry of Magic, but also to themselves.
Sitting in the main seat, surrounded by beauties, Leon's purple eyes swept over everyone, as if he was saying.
[I'm not targeting you, I'm targeting everyone present. My kingdom doesn't need trash like you!]
Although Leon was not polite, they did not dare to refute. First, they didn't want to get burned, and second, that was actually what Leon said.
In recent years, simple magical accessories such as kettles that can boil hot water and brooms that vacuum automatically have been introduced to people and have brought great benefits.
The Knights are also equipped with a batch of magical swords, and their combat power can be considered to have soared. No matter how you look at it, national power was greatly improved because of magical items.
On the other hand, the Ministry of Magic... I'm afraid they've had fun with funds in recent years. They didn't even develop decent new magic, and became a bunch of lazy pigs with power.
"Your Highness, please withdraw your decision."
"This matter has already been decided."
"No! Your Highness, our kingdom is a kingdom that believes in magic. You are disrespecting magic by attacking the Ministry of Magic!"
"So what? You're just a bunch of useless people who can't get results. What's there to respect?"
Leon sneered, looking at the president's expression as if he was watching a joke.
"Aren't you afraid of being so disrespectful and dissatisfied with the great elf who gave us magic? By taking away that gift, we will never be able to use magic again?!"
"It doesn't matter. I think that since the great elf tolerates you as his most devout believers, he will definitely not take away the power of magic."
"What?"
"Wouldn't it be the same as long as there were magic props that my sister and I studied? No, our magic props went beyond mere magic."
Leon said with a bit of pride in his eyes.
Looking at the blonde princess present, her eyes were full of emotion. It was precisely because she was born without magic that she created the power to transcend magic.
He stood up and walked towards Anis.
As if to announce his victory and success to everyone, he took her hand and raised her up.
"Are you serious...?"
"Of course! Because I witnessed it all, and these eyes of mine saw the birth of a miracle! A bird that longed for heaven more than anyone else, but had no wings. It makes its own wings and flies higher and further than anyone else!"
"Leon..." Anis was moved to tears.
I proudly read Anis's great achievements to everyone. In his opinion, his so-called great achievements in conquering dragons were simply nothing compared to the great achievements of Anis who developed "magic".
So he doesn't understand.
Why doesn't anyone recognize her?
Why doesn't anyone praise her?
Why doesn't anyone like her?
Leon doesn't understand, but he doesn't intend to agree.
"Since no one is rooting for you, then I will give you the brightest bouquet and the loudest applause, my sister."
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Countless flames flew into the night sky outside the window, and then the most beautiful bouquets exploded into the night sky. There are no fireworks in this world, but Leon made them.
As he said, this is the most colorful bouquet.
Anis looked out the window, expressionless.
She couldn't hold back her tears.
She didn't know that Leon had arranged such a thing. The boy turned his celebration party into a stage for her to prove.
Anise didn't even react to the sudden surprise, but... she just felt that some uncontrollable emotions were coming out of her heart, and she couldn't stop it.
[This is probably the happiest day of my life, but... not because magic is about to be recognized, but because Leon-chan did such a thing for me.]
Anis continued wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes. She wanted to admire Leon's profile more than the beautiful fireworks in the sky that she had never seen before.
