Understand humans!

After all, this is an internal matter of the Magic Association and it is difficult to handle.

I'm sure even Lady Aura would care about what other magicians say. After all, they are more or less colleagues. Maybe when the Minister was studying in Kribi, there were many magicians who were her classmates.

It is always difficult to take action against acquaintances, especially those you may deal with in the future.

"Can't come back?" Aura's eyes widened. Without hesitation, "Then their qualifications as magicians will be revoked."

"No! Master Aura, we can't do this!"

"Why not?"

"For magicians who just return to their hometown to conduct research, coming back to teach is nothing...but...but for those magicians who have already held high positions, held important positions in branches of various countries, or even sought court positions in the royal families of various countries, this is undoubtedly a humiliation to them and will provoke a huge backlash."

Aura tilted her head, somewhat confused:

"Even the demons will more or less abide by the contract, so why don't these humans do it? They learned magic and ate and used the headquarters' money, so why do they refuse to acknowledge their achievements? They enjoy the benefits of the training program, but they don't fulfill their obligations. This is unfair."

"This... this is indeed unfair to those magicians who abide by the rules, but Lord Aura, this group of people are deeply rooted in the magic circle. You can't use force to intimidate them like you do with the nobles. Moreover, as senior magicians, they have complicated relationships in the association. I am worried... it will affect your future."

“Sira, I think you misunderstood something,” Aura stood up, walked to the windowsill and pulled open the curtain.

"First, since I am in this position and have come here by means of murder and coercion, I don't care about my future."

Aura smiled, and after the curtain was drawn, the room was bright for a moment. Sheila was not used to it for a moment and closed her eyes. When she opened them again, she saw Aura pointing to the distant place outside the window sill, which was the tiny shadow of a church palace outside the city of Kribi.

"Second, my future is determined by that place. No matter how many or how complicated their relationships are, they can't interfere with me."

"But, Master Aura," Sheila hesitated for a moment before finally speaking, "many people will scold you, and the reputation you worked so hard to build up in the Magic Association may be ruined."

“Third,” Aura opened her eyes wide. Her purple pupils were calm and indifferent, but making people feel creepy and uncomfortable when being stared at, as if there was some inhuman monster hiding in her eyes.

"...I don't care. I never care what humans think. If possible, I don't even want to care what elves think. If it weren't for someone's thousand-year plan, I wouldn't be here at all. I have been very patient to be mixed with a group of insects. If I have to understand their thoughts again, I would rather crush them and understand the thoughts of a pool of meat paste."

"Lord Aura... then... what should we do?"

"Call back all the magicians who have graduated from the academy through the training program. Listen to the headquarters' arrangements and take classes for three years. If they refuse, the magic badges awarded by the headquarters will be taken back and they will no longer be recognized as magicians."

"What if you refuse to return the magic badge..."

"That means the headquarters' ability to control the branch is too weak. This needs to be corrected. Celia let me in for this."

Aura grinned, and a blood-red light appeared in his eyes again.

Although Aura had no weapon in his hand, in Sheila's eyes, he could already see the horrific scene of the purple-haired magician swinging an axe, chopping down trees in blood, and heads falling to the ground one after another.

"Yes..." Silla finally nodded with difficulty.

It turned out that this was the reason why Lady Celia recalled Aura to the headquarters. He was still too young and only seemed smart on the surface, but in fact he was not as smart as the minister and did not understand Lady Celia's hint at all.

"Go ahead." Aura said softly.

She turned her head and looked out the window, at the tall yet tiny shadow of the church outside Kribi.

In fact, Aura didn't know what Celia was thinking...

However, Aura was once the president of the Magic Association. In her era, although the scale of the Magic Association was not as large as it is now, and Aura did not take much charge of the affairs, every order she issued as the president would be transmitted to each branch at the first time and then executed unconditionally.

In today's Magic Association, even the transfer orders from the headquarters are ignored by the branches.

Aura had noticed something when she arrived in San Lorenzo, but at the time she thought it was a special case in some marginal cities.

Now it seems that this is not an isolated case.

The orders of the superiors were ignored, which was unbearable for the demons!

Just look at Aura. She was willing to kneel down in humiliation and beg for mercy in front of despicable humans countless times just to survive, but has she ever thought of betraying the Demon King?

Aura's loyalty to the Demon King has never wavered!

And now, the Magic Association founded by Aura has actually distributed the central power.

The magicians that Kribi sent to various branches actually dared to resist the orders of the headquarters.

Aura is about to explode!!

Obviously, all of it should belong to the headquarters, all of it should belong to her, Aura! Why did these humans divide up her magic association? ? ! !

Chapter 131: It's just nonsense

Jill is the branch director of the port city of Kedo Bay. He is also a magician who graduated from the Kribi Magic Academy. Among the available cities listed by the headquarters, he chose Kedo Bay, the farthest location.

Because Keduo Bay is far away from Kribi, the center of the Magic Association, and the headquarters sends fewer candidates, the Magic Association branch in Keduo Bay is not interfered with by the headquarters and grows wildly.

Jier took advantage of the fact that the Keduowan Magic Association branch was out of control and worked hard to climb up. Because there were fewer magical talents in the Keduowan Magic Association branch, he, a top student from the magic capital of Kribi, was naturally valued. Within a few years, he became the director of the branch.

As the head of a local magic association, whose headquarters is far away and has almost no interference in Keduo Bay, Jill began to have evil thoughts.

At the beginning, he just secretly promoted association members who had a good relationship with him to important positions so that his orders could be executed faster in the association's branches.

Gradually, he began to add some of his own ideas to the instructions from the headquarters. Anyway, the headquarters was too far away from here, and the efficiency of monitoring and reporting was very low. Even if the instructions from the headquarters were distorted a little during implementation, no one would notice.

Then, Jill simply took control of the branch's reporting feedback mechanism to the headquarters and falsified the current status of the Magic Association's branches.

With this, his control over the association's branch in Keduo Bay was completely free from the control of the headquarters, and he became the real ruler of the association in the local area.

Later, Jill discovered that Kedo Bay was too far away from Kribi, which was both an advantage and a disadvantage. Not only did the headquarters have weak control over the branch, but there were too few high-level magicians sent there.

Although Jill, a high-level magician, can act arrogantly within the association branch, his influence on the local area is too small outside the association branch.

We need to... recruit more magicians here.

Those magicians who graduated from formal schools naturally did not want to come to this place far away from the magic capital, so Jill set his sights on the magicians who graduated "informally".

The so-called "informal" does not refer to cheating in graduation. Kribi's assessment system is extremely complete. There is no magician who graduates by cheating. However, there are magicians who cannot be free immediately after graduation and are bound by rules and regulations and contracts.

Jill gave them conditions to avoid the transfer order from the headquarters and concentrated these magicians in the remote Keduo Bay. With the cover of an entire branch, these magicians, who were supposed to fulfill part of their obligations, delayed the payment of the contract costs until today.

The power of the Magic Association branch in Keduo Bay is also constantly expanding in the local area.

This is a mutually beneficial situation.

No one wants to break it.

Until just now——

Jill, who had not been to Kribi for ten years, finally came to the headquarters in person to report on his duties this year, and heard that the Education Department of the Association headquarters wanted to forcibly recruit the training program magicians who had escaped in the past many years and reassign them to the headquarters to fulfill their grassroots education obligations.

"Nonsense!!"

“It’s just nonsense!!”

Jill's eyes were wide open with anger. Most of the magicians in his branch of the Kedowan Association were trained in the association's training program, and more or less had obligations that had not been fulfilled. If he really fulfilled the contract one by one, he would lose these confidants in at least three years, and at most ten years!

Jill's control over the Keduowan Association branch will be reduced to an unprecedented level.

He got other branch directors who were being promoted in Kribi to rush into the Ministry of Education and make a scene. He thought that because of their status as branch directors, the Ministry of Education would take public opinion into consideration and withdraw the transfer order.

However, they never expected that under the firm attitude of the Minister of Education, they were suppressed instead.

Those who can become the head of a branch are all outstanding people, extremely excellent magicians. Theoretically speaking, the magic level of the staff who maintain order in the Ministry of Education may not be higher than them. But this is Kribi, no magician dares to take action here.

In the end, Jill and the others were easily driven out.

It did not affect the decision of the Ministry of Education at all.

Before being kicked out, Jill saw the Minister of Education who issued a series of orders. She was a purple-haired girl who appeared out of nowhere and whose name had never been heard of in the Magic Association headquarters in the past ten years.

Judging from her appearance, she is still young and should not have the courage to take risks and offend various branches.

Then, Jill pointed at Aura and shouted:

"You issued this order, forcing magicians to repatriate from all places, delaying the development of magic in all places. Aren't you afraid of being condemned by the public?!"

"What am I afraid of?" Jill saw the purple-haired girl turned her head and glanced at him with an indifferent expression, which was not at all like the expression of a girl her age. Instead, she had an indifferent look, as if she was in her fifties or sixties.

"Are you afraid of offending me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Jill felt a chill rising from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.

He lowered his head unconsciously, not daring to look Aura in the eye, and couldn't even utter the words he wanted to rebuke or protest.

Jill had only experienced the same feeling before, from the great demon that flashed across the edge of the battlefield. It was a feeling of disappointment as he was so close to death, yet he could only raise his hand and wave at the person who was staring at him.

I was like a tiny grasshopper standing in front of a huge wheel. The wheel didn't even pay attention to what it was rolling over before the grasshopper was already flying everywhere.

call--

Suck--

When Jill came to his senses, he found that he had obeyed the security personnel who were maintaining order in the Ministry of Education and was asked to leave the Ministry of Education.

"Jill, why didn't you say anything just now? Didn't you drag us here to protest? Why did you obey at the critical moment?"

"It's not obedience... I... I don't know why..."

Gil was a little dazed. He raised his hands and felt his still trembling fingers.

It's really strange, as if a piece of my memory has been scraped away. The Minister of Education clearly doesn't have any magic power at all, so why am I so scared?

Is it an illusion?

"So what should we do now? If we want to cause trouble at the Ministry of Education again, I'm afraid we won't have the chance. We only have one chance to go in and protest like this, and the headquarters will soon issue a strict ban on such behavior. It's fine to just argue with the Ministry of Education, but we don't want to go against the headquarters."

"Huh... there's still a chance," Gil exhaled deeply, shifting his attention away from his shaking hands. He glanced at the helpless heads of the various branches around him and said slowly, "If it doesn't work openly, we can still do it secretly. There are always some magics that your respective researches are not recorded in the headquarters, and we have a lot of connections in Kribi, so we can suppress it."

"You mean... to use force against the headquarters members? You're crazy! If those magicians are transferred back, we will only temporarily lose some power, which will not fundamentally affect our control over the branch... But if we are found to be attacking the headquarters members, we will be--"

"Then do it secretly and don't let the headquarters find out!" Jill shouted, "Do you think this transfer order is only for those magicians who violated the contract? Be smart! Don't you think the headquarters is too indulgent in implementing the Ministry of Education's proposal?!"

Jill looked around and saw that all the department heads looked thoughtful. He then continued to speak out his guess:

"The transfer order from the Ministry of Education is just the beginning. We need to find a reason to call back the magicians from various places and redistribute them so that the personnel can flow."

Jill frowned. The headquarters suddenly brought up the old account of the training plan many years ago and appointed a young man who had never been seen before as the Minister of Education. The headquarters' intentions were obvious:

"The reason why the president tacitly agreed to carry out this ridiculous order is that she wanted to use it to weaken the power of the heads of the branches. Even though she is only a middle-level magician in the branch now, it will be time for us, the upper-level ones, to take over after a while."

Putting the Minister of Education on the stage is nothing more than an attempt to attract fire. The headquarters' recovery of power from branches is gradual, like boiling a frog in warm water. When the branch ministers shift their anger away from the Minister of Education and come to their senses, they will find that the headquarters has completed the layout.

They are powerless to change the situation. The good times of local separatism and free reign will never come again.

Chapter 132 Don't Check

The branch director who came to Kribi for his job inspection today turned pale when he heard Jill's remarks. When the time comes, they can only pray that the headquarters will not pursue the violations they committed in the past.

"What should we do? We have no choice. All first-level magicians and great magicians obey the direct dispatch of the headquarters. Even if we want to resist, we don't have the strength. Can we really only watch the power we have built up being taken over step by step by the headquarters?"

"of course not."

Many branch directors were panicked, but a few, including Jill, looked at each other and understood each other's thoughts, and remained calm.

"Is there any other way?"

"Although the headquarters has the top magicians, we still have the advantage in numbers. Although we can't reject them directly, we can express our dissatisfaction indirectly. I believe the headquarters will not risk going against the lower-level magicians."

"What do you mean?"

"What this means is that we can't touch the president who makes the decisions, but we can't touch the one who made the decision?"

"The Minister of Education?"

"Yes, let's check her background. We always pick on the weak. We can't afford to offend President Zanze or the great magician Volame. How can we afford to offend a mere new Minister of Education?"

The branch directors looked at each other and laughed, glad that they had finally found a breakthrough.

Soon, a temporary secret intelligence network led by Jill was established in Kribi. The branch directors who participated in it tried their best to use their connections in Kribi to investigate the background of the Minister of Education.

Although this secret intelligence network was established temporarily, it was extremely efficient. Gil only stayed in Kribi for one night, and that night, all the information about Aula was delivered to his desk.

Jill flipped through the pages and found that most of them were blank or had question marks.

"What do you mean it can't be found?"

The messenger replied:

"Everyone who could be contacted in Kribi said they had no impression of the education minister and had never seen her in Kribi before."

"What about the association's internal files? Her files can't be empty! With the highest authority we can use, we can even find information about the royal families of various countries. How can we not find any news about her? It is impossible for anyone to have no social connections!"

"I did find out about this, but I can't find out anything."
