After arriving at Noble District's castle, Ian saw a man who seemed to be waiting for him.

"Are you waiting for me?"

"Yes," the leader of Delaion replied.

"Oh? What's the matter?"

"I'm here to apologize."

"Regret that you didn't recruit me into your group? Unfortunately, it's too late now," Ian joked.

Delaion shook his head. "Although I do regret it, I didn't come here for this. In the past few days, I have been thinking about what would happen if discrimination is not eliminated and a civilian with both talent and strength like you leaves Clover Kingdom."

"The kingdom will not only lose a powerful magician. No, what is even more frightening is that we may create a terrible enemy for ourselves."

Ian didn't speak, but Delaion didn't mind. He continued on his own:

"I realized that the inequality between the nobility and the common people was almost destroying this country. I wanted to change it. Unfortunately, this problem is deeply rooted in this country, and even as a member of the Imperial Family, I can't do anything about it."

"So, you are going to give up?" Ian asked.

"I decided to start with the next generation. I have two children and I will make sure they don't inherit these outdated ideas. Hopefully they can influence the people around them and let this change continue."

Delaion looked directly into Ian's eyes.

"And I have a hunch that you will be the key to this change."

Ian looked him up and down, then chuckled.

"Maybe you're right."

He patted Delaion on the shoulder and walked towards the castle.

Soon, a man who claimed to be the attendant of the Magic Emperor took him to a conference room. A middle-aged man wearing luxurious robes was sitting there waiting.

Ian As soon as he stepped into the room, he felt a strong pressure of magic coming towards him, trying to intimidate him.

With a calm expression on his face, he released his magic power and instantly shattered the pressure.

Not only that, all the tables in the room instantly shattered, and cracks appeared on the walls.

"You are so brave!" The attendant knelt on the ground with difficulty and said through gritted teeth.

Ian ignored him and activated Grimoire. A flash of "Repair Spell" flashed and everything returned to its original state instantly.

"Hahaha, what an amazing magic power. I can't believe you are actually a commoner."

"If you think about it rationally, it's not surprising," Ian replied calmly.

"Oh? What should I say?"

"Source, weren't you nobles also common people before?"

"Don't insult the nobles!" the attendant shouted.

However, the 27th-generation Magic Emperor, S Piers De Kira, waved his hand to signal him to be quiet. Then, he invited Ian to take a seat and served tea.

"What do you mean?"

"Nobility is just a social concept. In the early days of human civilization, there was no such thing. When our race first discovered magic, we probably only used it as a tool to survive against Warcraft or other powerful races."

"At that time, people with high magic power acted as hunters and Guardians, so they had a high status. Later, humans discovered that if they only combined with people with the same high magic power, their offspring would have a high chance of inheriting this talent and huge magic power. Therefore, this practice was respected."

"Hundreds of years later, people with high magic power in a specific area intermarried and formed families, which are the so-called 'nobles'. Therefore, it is not wrong to say that you are the descendants of common people."

"In this case, it is not impossible that people with Luck and high magic power like your ancestors will appear among the civilians. Unfortunately, once these people challenge your authority, you will still exclude or even obliterate them."

Sid Piers was silent for a moment and said, "It's a very interesting theory. It's a pity that there is no conclusive evidence. Otherwise, this would be enough to be regarded as a great discovery on History of Magic."

"Even if there is evidence, you people will hide it or destroy it," Ian retorted.

"Okay, let's get down to business. Magic Council does not agree with you taking over 'Purple Orca Squad'."

S Piers fell silent after finishing speaking, while Ian drank tea gracefully.

"It seems that they don't care about the life or death of the heir of the Tarte Family. He has mastered 'Mana Zone' at a young age. He has a bright future."

Hearing this, Speard frowned.

"You can join any Magic Knights, and then slowly be promoted to group leader."

"You nobles control the promotion ladder. Considering your attitude towards civilians, how many years do you think it will take for me to become a 'leader'? Or, do I really have a chance?"

"What you want is just to make me work for you while keeping me at the bottom of the food chain. This is impossible."

"Then what do you want?"

"I want to build my own Magic Knights. Anyway, I have proven that I am strong enough."

"What if we don't agree?"

"Other kingdoms are also an option. I heard that the queen of the Heart Kingdom is both powerful and kind, and she never judges a hero based on her birthplace."

In the past few days, Ian has collected basic intelligence about other kingdoms and found a way out for himself.

His current choices are Heart Kingdom or Spade Kingdom, but he prefers the former.

However, for some reason, Ian doesn't want to leave unless absolutely necessary.

After pondering for a long time, Speard finally agreed to his conditions. In exchange, Lin An had to terminate the contract.

So, on that day, "Blue Ravenclaw Squad" (Blue Ravenclaw Squad) was officially established.

"Your Majesty, why did you compromise with that civilian?"

"That kid is a monster. I'm afraid even I am no match for him," Speard sighed. This sentence shocked the attendant.

News of the establishment of the tenth branch Magic Knights quickly spread throughout the kingdom.

Whether they are civilians from the Commoner Realm or Forsaken Realm, they are all excited that a civilian finally becomes the leader.

When Ian announced that his knights were recruiting civilians, people from all over the country came from far and wide to participate in the selection.

The selection process is very rigorous.

Ian understands that civilians are born with low magic power reserves and cannot significantly increase them through acquired practice, so he lowered his standards in this regard.

Instead, he focuses on selecting those who have unique magic and the potential to master "Mana Zone" through training.

He customized a training plan for each member based on their magical attributes.

He also tried to make a potion that could increase the upper limit of magic power. However, he found that this was another taboo area in this world and he could not succeed.

So, he did the next best thing and formulated a special diet and training plan to ensure that the team members could quickly recover their magic power during training and have strong physical fitness.

Although commoners have inherent disadvantages compared to nobles, under his methods, the potential of all team members is maximized.

In addition, he also equipped all team members with "magic recovery potions" for combat, giving them an advantage in protracted battles.

The most important thing is that Ian created some special "magic skills" to make up for the gap in total magic power and enhance their combat effectiveness.

Of course, Ian did not only recruit civilians, but also selected some nobles.

However, these nobles are usually marginalized people who have been marginalized by their families, or people whose ideas have not been completely corrupted.

Ian This is done to appease the nobles of the kingdom to a certain extent and allow them to give their knights room to grow and develop.

Although he had the ability to single-handedly suppress the entire kingdom, he felt it would be unwise to do so - at least not yet.

Moreover, he can also use the influence of these small nobles to benefit himself.

The second major thing Ian did was to found a newspaper.

There was a newspaper in the kingdom, but it was a monthly publication, and more importantly, it was firmly controlled by the nobles.

Ian's newspaper is extremely cheap, published daily, and has exciting content.

Newspapers publish all kinds of news about the kingdom - especially gossip and scandals about the private lives of nobles.

All their shady transactions were exposed. In addition, Ian also serialized novels in newspapers.

He opened a fashion section to provide beauty and style advice for men and women.

There is also a section dedicated to publishing magic usage techniques and magic control experiences written by Ian, in order to educate the public - to be precise, educate the common people.

The most important thing is that this newspaper can publicize his legendary deeds and establish a glorious image for him.

He did this to prevent the nobles from slandering him or obliterating his contributions to the kingdom.

Some nobles tried to imitate his business model, but they all failed miserably.

First of all, the content of their newspaper is far less interesting than that of Ian.

Secondly, their printing speed cannot keep up, and they cannot deliver newspapers to all parts of the country in a short time.

In addition, most nobles are greedy and cannot afford such a low price.

Finally, some nobles decided to snatch his business directly.

Unfortunately, all nobles who tried to do so were cursed with terrible curses and suffered unbearable torture deep in their souls.

Magic Council tried to Judgment Ian about the curse on the nobles, but they couldn't find any evidence.

Even reading his memory showed that he was innocent.

Eventually, the nobles were forced to give up and no longer dared to interfere in his business.

In this way, several years passed. Ian finally recovered his memory.
