From Wild Mage to Wizard King

The Silver Empire is a bulk human empire located in Sinar. It mainly consists of electorate states, human kingdoms, human or alien principalities, and various free cities. Among them, there are also a few areas with special status, such as almost complete independence. tower of truth.

However, although the Silver Empire accepted some alien races, humans still dominated the mainstream.

According to the [Silver Agreement] signed by all the princes of the Silver Empire, the emperor of the empire is not hereditary, but elected, and only the thirteen extraordinary families who originally founded the country have the right to vote. The various princely states within the empire do not have the right to vote.

The political system is somewhat similar to the Holy Roman Empire in Roland's previous life.

After listening to Roland's teachings, Hela looked at him with some confusion and asked.

"Thirteen extraordinary families? In addition to the seven silver families, what about the other six?"

"The other six?"

Roland put down the book and said simply.

"According to the official records of the Silver Empire, these six families all died out due to various reasons."

Hela heard Roland's hint and continued to ask.

"What about the fact?"

"It is almost impossible for a qualified family of extraordinary people to perish due to the loss of heirs. The decisive condition for having offspring is only whether the extraordinary person thinks about it or not."

"As far as I know, of these six extraordinary families, three were exterminated by the first emperor of the Silver Empire, two were liquidated during political struggles, and the only knight family was squeezed out."

Roland casually revealed the secrets of the Silver Empire.

"However, they were not completely wiped out. The five wiped out families still had some firepower. However, as losers, they not only had to remain anonymous, but also because they lost almost all their resources, they became ordinary noble families."

"As for the excluded knight family, they returned to Donnar to live in seclusion."

"Don't pay special attention to them, they are just a bunch of losers. If you want to know more about them, you can read [Silver Family History] published by the Veliks School. Although it is not very accurate, it can be used as a reference."

"However, just take a look in private. Don't talk nonsense when you are in the Silver Empire."

Roland said remindingly.

Although the affairs of the Baiyin family are not a secret in the circle of extraordinary people, and the Baiyin family will not pursue them because of this information that is almost universally known, but if it is deliberately spread everywhere, the Baiyin family is not a vegetarian. .

"clear."

Hela nodded and replied.

"Well, it is estimated that we will stay in the Silver Empire for several years. It is good to know more about the history of the Silver Empire, but it is best to understand their recent situation first."

Roland took out the information he purchased from the Northland Spellcasters Association and handed it to Hela to read while explaining the current situation of the Silver Empire to her.

The War of the Roses was a war over the Crown of the Silver Empire.

After the death of the previous Silver Emperor, the seven major Silver families elected a seven-year-old girl to become the new emperor of the empire.

Because, while she has the blood of the Baiyin family and belongs to her own people, she also shows amazing talent as a mage.

Although the princes of the empire have doubts about whether a child queen can rule the empire, they also question whether a powerful spellcaster will lead to the return of the magical rule of the old era.

However, with the support of the seven major silver families, the young queen successfully secured her throne and developed rapidly in the field of magic.

Until a sudden disaster ended her reign.

In the third year after she ascended the throne, due to the death of her relatives, she was already a fifth-ring mage, but with only a ten-year-old mind, she was completely unable to control her own power. In the end, the magic power in her body was imbalanced, and she cast a spell in the capital of the empire. A terrifying psychic spell.

In the unprepared situation, more than ten thousand people died on the spot in the capital of the empire, and there were countless people whose minds were affected by the spell.

The most fatal thing was that the Baiyin family arranged for her to be around, and the dozen or so Baiyin descendants who grew up with her, as well as several grand dukes in the palace at the time, all died suddenly on the spot.

This unprecedented disaster ultimately ended the reign of the young queen, and the silver nobles were locked in a debate over the choice of the next emperor.

While the Silver nobles were debating the choice of the throne, some kings and princes of the Silver Empire invited the king of the Silver Empire's neighbor, an independent human kingdom, the Kingdom of Inter, to become the new Silver Emperor.

After noticing their actions, the silver nobles also hurriedly elected a new emperor and announced the ascension of the orthodox emperor.

However, King Inte refused to recognize the election of the Silver Nobles, and with the support of some kings and grand dukes, he led his troops into the Silver Empire.

Ever since, the war broke out, because the family emblems of both sides are roses, but the current Silver Emperor's is silver, while the King of Inte's is red.

Therefore, this war is also called the War of Roses.

After Roland finished talking about the origin of the Rose War, Hela asked curiously.

"Why did the silver nobles choose a girl younger than me to be the emperor?"

"There's a lot of speculation."

Roland said.

"Some people think that it is because of her age that the young emperor cannot handle government affairs, and the rights of the empire will naturally be divided among the Silver nobles. Some people think that it is because of her talent that the Silver family is trying to create a new one again. The legendary monarch.”

"You have to ask the Baiyin family what the specific situation is."

Hela blinked and asked the question again.

"Then why do the kings and princes of the Silver Empire want King Yingte, who does not belong to the Silver Empire, to be the emperor?"

Roland smiled and said.

"For the sake of profit, you will understand after reading it backwards."

After hearing Roland's words, Hela silently turned back a few pages of the information in her hand and saw an agreement reached by the Grand Duke and King Inte.

A simple and clear benefit distribution agreement, expanding electoral qualifications, abolishing the restrictions of the Silver Empire, and granting vassal states the right to launch annexation wars.

After Hela read the agreement, Roland continued to briefly introduce the War of Roses.

In short, surrounding the crown of the Silver Empire, the vassal states of the Silver Empire were divided into two factions, the Red Rose Faction supporting King Inte, and the Silver Rose Faction supporting the Silver Nobles.

The War of Roses swept almost the entire Sinar, after countless brutal battles and killings.

In the end, after twenty-five years of war, the excessively fierce war caused dissatisfaction among the vassals of the Kingdom of Inter. Coupled with the initiative of the Silver family to negotiate peace, the two factions finally reached a peace agreement.

The current Silver Emperor will marry King Inte's daughter, and their heirs will become the next Silver Emperor.
