There are many reasons to echo Della directly.
First of all, she is the landlord in question, secondly, she is not easy to mess with, and thirdly, the most important point:
What she is proposing now is indeed the purpose for which everyone gathered, and it is also the one who makes the magisters present extremely confused.
Lucifer Lestus.
"To be honest, I have always suspected that he was a forbidden product created by Selina using magic." Caroline smacked her lips, "Let's not mention talent... To reach the level of a magister at that age is really an exaggeration."
Several of them happened to be magisters born at the same time as the former queen of Lestus, and they were also familiar with each other, but they only met each other a few times.
"The suddenly appointed king of the Kingdom of Lestus, Lucifer Lestus was only twenty-seven years old when he first participated in the meeting of magisters."
Della spoke objectively, but even though she was pragmatic, she was shocked by the facts. When she mentioned her age, she looked complicated and paused for a moment.
"In the year of the Starfall incident, we also held an extra gathering to find out the situation, but no one from Lestus showed up at the meeting - until Lucifer Lestus showed up alone."
Ninety-seven years ago, the "Stars Fall" incident suddenly occurred, and Her Majesty Queen Selina, who was once the most influential queen of the Kingdom of Lestus, suddenly fell.
Quint also expressed some emotion, "A full ninety-eight years have passed. At that time, you were still considered the 'younger generation'. No one could have imagined that the golden age of magic started by Lestus would suddenly end."
At that time, Quint was only in his early two hundred years old, and everyone present was younger than him. The magister who is more than a hundred years old is just a "newcomer" who has just entered the world of magisters at the meeting.
The twelve-year fixed gathering was held exactly in the year when the tragedy occurred.
Just in line with Quint's description, Lestus at that time was a gathering of stars, with many magisters with outstanding abilities and different personalities.
In comparison, they can occupy the first place among the four countries based on their numbers alone, which is not to say that they are not weak.
——After all, even the Queen herself is a mage of this level. You can imagine how much influence it has on the magic trend in the country.
After the tragedy broke out, they seemed to have made an appointment with each other and disappeared as the country closed its borders and implemented a travel order system.
"But Selina herself didn't attend many parties in the last few decades." Caroline touched her chin. "Being the head of a country is still troublesome, and there is no spare time. But other people..."
Sonny also frowned, "I still remember the battle at that time - even the Paladins were magisters, it was simply unreasonable! So I still want to know, what exactly happened in Lestus? "
Although there are no rules prohibiting mages from participating in the election of Paladins, most of those who are eventually selected are pure warriors. Although their bodies are tempered by magic, what they use on the battlefield are their bodies and weapons.
Because mages generally do not have the physical fitness of warriors, they can fight as knights in armor. As a warrior, learning magic itself consumes too much energy, and it is even more wishful thinking to reach the peak on both paths.
The most powerful mages have quite unique uses. Even if there are a few who are not bound by the sacred covenant, they will stay away from the crowd and fight each other first to avoid causing excessive casualties to low-level warriors on the battlefield.
This is a tacit understanding that does not need to be stated, and it is also a protective measure that people finally learned to avoid the annihilation of their race in the few remaining war records.
As for the more common magic, they are more similar to checks and balances on the battlefield. The main offensive and defensive methods are to limit each other and allow the warriors in the battle to obtain the greatest blessing.
Among those who go to the battlefield, the largest number are warriors - most people who study magic cannot reach a point where they can influence the situation of the battle.
And with the ability of a magister, it is absolutely impossible to be absolutely banned because of a decree. To assume that they could die as easily as Selena would be to underestimate the strength of the magister.
There must be another reason.
When she heard the mention of the group of magisters in Lestus, Della seemed to think of something.
She was a little absent-minded and put her hand on the corner of the table. She didn't speak until her knuckles turned white and she realized that it was her responsibility to lead the conversation.
"I don't need to go into details about what a grand occasion Lestus was a hundred years ago. The question now is now, a hundred years later, what does the signal deliberately conveyed by Lucifer Lestus actually mean?"
Sonny raised his eyebrows and said, "In this way, it seems that this is indeed the first time that we have discovered that this Magister of Lestus has taken the initiative to create a public incident."
Lucifer, the king, has had a great reputation in the past hundred years. He has been known as a "tyrant" for most of his time, and is also accompanied by many true or false legends.
But the magisters have another layer of intelligence.
Among the deeds that they can confirm are true and well-founded, all fights are caused by members of other countries.
Lucifer himself just fought back, and incidentally demonstrated the power that was touted to the heavens.
As time goes by, it stops here.
The reason why the name of the evil king was formed was not only the well-known star-falling incident, but also the subsequent gradual fermentation, and even folk speculation about the "sauce" added to the name Lucifer.
On the one hand, it is the revenge mentality of the devastated, and on the other hand, it is also because the closure of Lestus not only blocks traffic, but also does not allow external imports to defend the king.
It is completely different from other lords of a country.
National coups and wars are often accompanied by massacres and cruel decisions, and these cruel actions that are not humane to outsiders are exactly what almost every monarch will deliberately conceal.
No one can secure a throne through kindness alone.
Della looked solemn, "According to the commonly known rules and the content of the sacred covenant, we cannot interfere in the internal affairs of other countries at will - unless there is a possibility of danger."
This is why all the magisters had doubts, and most of them did not take action to force their way into Lestus for on-the-spot investigation.
Just because the countries are different.
No matter which magister meeting is held, all magisters adhere to one principle regarding the country: as long as it does not involve the interests of their own country and there is no risk, they tend not to interfere.
Living longer than ordinary people, they also understand the principle of shooting the first bird, and understand that sometimes not harming others is also a kind of self-interest.
If the facts are unclear, a rash move may not only affect the internal affairs of other countries and cause international conflicts, but may also become another background in the deeds of Lucifer Restus.
If you are more dramatic, you may be able to get the same treatment as the old dragon Silvio, and become the protagonist of the laughing story-everyone talks about the past when he was defeated by others, which would be a bit embarrassing.
And the magister of Lestus was nowhere to be seen. Even if he was as confused as them, he would naturally not be able to pursue his country's affairs in public.
Lucifer's subsequent performance is also an important part, which seems quite surprising.
To be honest, at least the basic attitude of the magisters present towards His Majesty the King is not very negative.
Mainly due to unfamiliarity.
Sonny crossed his legs and sat casually aside, tilting the stool a little, which attracted Della's scrutinizing gaze and spoke lightly at the same time.
"It's the first time I've seen His Majesty the King. Everyone here probably didn't expect it just like me, right? The cruel king who was rumored to have killed his own mother turned out to be such a person."
When Lucifer Lestus attended the meeting of magisters for the first time, he shocked people with his unique youth, and then sat on the edge.
Every twelve years he would attend the meeting on time, like a silent ghost who clocked in on time.
Even though he was wearing a mask, he acted like he had nothing to do with you and couldn't ask any more questions when people tried to ask him about "The Fall of Stars". He even took out his lord's badge and declared that this was an internal matter of the country.
Quint also spoke.
"Your Excellency Lestus has a very strong personal ability. I had the honor to see him do it for the first time fifty-eight years ago. Before that, I always thought that it was impossible to be good at advanced magic with all attributes. I thought that young people are too impetuous after all. .”
He was still a little ashamed and lowered his head.
Caroline suddenly understood, "So the news that finally spread to the public originated from you?"
It was also at that time that Lucifer's reputation as an all-powerful mage spread across the continent.
This was not surprising since the young mage stated this fact frankly when he first attended the meeting, as if it was no big deal at all.
The Magister confirmed this as a subsequent process.
Everyone present had experienced most Magister gatherings: Quint and Della often hosted them, and Caroline and Sonny had plenty of free time.
"That should be regarded as the instructions of the great magician Winter." Quint sighed. "It was mainly the intention of the Kingdom of Crowley, who wanted to test the king of Lestus. There is no result, and there is no need to keep it secret."
Caroline crossed her arms and blinked.
She was perhaps the only member among the attendees who insisted on attending the meeting out of the strange feeling of "if others went, I would feel a loss if I didn't come". She was also an idle member of the Magister who had nothing to do to observe others.
"I don't have much impression of him. Apart from being a little surprised to see such a young magister at first, he didn't say a few words afterwards. I have to look for one characteristic, maybe his hair is very flowing?"
Della also shook her head, "If I want to be honest, because of the incident, I was very wary of Lucifer Lestus and kept observing him for any changes. But the result was negative."
After all, no matter what angle you come from, Lucifer has never shown any hostility in the eyes of these people with different opinions.
Now he is serious about it.
Taking action or even hanging corpses on the city wall was to directly declare this situation to people other than Lestus. It completely showed "cruelty" and "arrogance" written on his face.
Compared with the notoriety that has accumulated over time, this direct announcement is incredibly public.
But no matter what, no one knows, and the discussion can only go so far.
Della looked at Caroline, "I remember that besides Lucifer Lestus, the youngest person in the record to reach the level of magister should be Everest. You recommended him at the time."
Caroline nodded, not saying anything extra, just taking it as a matter of course.
"He received the dying gift from the elves. If that guy doesn't reach the realm of the magister as soon as possible, he will die to apologize. Moreover, Everest was chosen by the elves, and he already has that talent."
She is quite confident in her country's great magician.
"At the last party, I saw Everest find King Lestus and take him to have a few words in private." Della pondered, "If he is here this time, you can ask him what the situation is and communicate with him. What’s the content…”
It can be seen that Della's observation of King Lestus does have a long history, not just a day or two.
