For such incidents where wild mages co to provoke, there actually isn't any need for Kael to pay special attention. All he needs to do is report it to the Mage Association in Golden City, and this group's actions will be nipped in the bud.
So now the most important question is, why did Kael choose to deal with this personally, when it's just a trivial matter that hardly requires his concern?
This is sothing Luxius found sowhat puzzling.
Just then, a hotel waiter approached Kael's position and quietly said:
"Helois Monarch, soone at the hotel entrance just asked to deliver a letter to you. Could you check and see if you recognize the original sender? If it's sent to you by mistake, the hotel will help you dispose of it right away."
"Let see it first!"
Kael replied softly.
For him, the most important goal in many matters is not whether it will be troubleso, or if his intelligence might be insulted.
The most crucial thing is always only one: to ensure that the goal can be smoothly achieved by any ans necessary.
Evidently, at present, Jora Hinton still had a role to play.
So even after understanding the relevant events, he still acquiesced to Jora Hinton's and the "Focus World Daily's" related actions.
After all, he was quite fed up with his current situation; if it ant an intuitive retaliation and deterrence to those causing it, Kael thought letting so people make a scene wasn't a problem.
As expected, after casting a glance at the note sent by the staff, he had already determined that the one who brought this ssage was the wild mages.
He casually tossed the content into the wastepaper basket, then looked up at his teacher and chuckled:
"Teacher, don't you find this sort of thing amusing?"
"...Amusing? How so?"
"Jora Hinton is actually quite an interesting person."
"For instance, I know for sure, this guy is not a normal mage at all."
"Not a normal mage?"
"Or to be more precise..."
Luxius watched as Kael clasped his hands together, the domain unfolding silently, and then he smiled at his teacher and said:
"Mr. Luxius, let tell you a little secret, that Jora Hinton is a believer of the Prince of Lies!"
Luxius's expression changed slightly, eventually saying with so subtlety: "A believer of the Prince of Lies? A follower who ca to you, or similar to other Ara teams?"
Upon hearing Kael say this, Luxius's first reaction was, "Is it again those troublemaking Shirek believers?"
"A believer of the Prince of Lies... perhaps it's best to have the Golden City Association clear them out right away... They've probably set their sights on you not for the first ti."
There seed to be a hidden calculation in this which Luxius couldn't fully comprehend; therefore, at this mont he simply hoped Kael would choose to protect himself.
After all, for the Mage Academia, Kael's current safety was of paramount importance.
Shirek believers have always been known for their cunning and treachery; dealing with them is usually no easy task and one might easily get caught in the web of lies they weave.
The Shirek believers have always been like this; when it cos to vile deeds, they're quite adept.
It's much like a country of lies that existed during the early Human Federation days, effortlessly fabricating history, mastering the art of shalessness and provoking annoyance.
And you can't say much about their actions; you can't really start a fight with them, can you?
If you really were to fight, reasons would turn into excuses.
The only consolation is that in the Divine Continent, upon encountering Shirek believers, violence is the imdiate response. If you beat one out of ten, there might be grievances,
but if you let them get away, you're simply allowing many to slip through the cracks.
...
In fact, the unrest caused outside by a group of wild mages had already been noticed by so keen mages.
They were quite curious about how Kael, the newly hailed Magic Monarch, was going to handle this group of wild mages, whom they saw as almost "idlers".
As for Kael, upon learning that this group had already arrived outside the hotel, he continued leisurely enjoying the banquet's feast.
No doubt, as an event that takes a long ti to host, the taste of the prepared delicacies was truly excellent.
At least, Kael felt that the taste at Golden City's first hotel truly lived up to its reputation, and he even considered recruiting them to Lancaster's own hotel.
But after so thought, Kael decisively gave up on this idea.
The cost of living in Golden City was still quite high, raising the chefs' salaries as well.
Bringing them to Lancaster would incur a considerable cost, which, while not impoverishing Kael, did seem over-the-top.
