Overall, the New Year of 3785 in the continent calendar passed quite peacefully.
The Lampari Kingdom, which had fallen into chaos because of the civil war, rapidly began to stabilize after Her Majesty Queen Servini's coronation.
In her public address on the first day of the New Year, Her Majesty Queen Servini passionately outlined her plans and hopes for the Lampari Kingdom's future development. She placed particular emphasis on vigorously developing magic industry, promising to do everything in her power to advance the industry within the kingdom and improve her subjects' lives.
In the concrete actions that followed, Her Majesty Queen Servini fulfilled that promise.
The reorganized Magic Industry Administration, now under Her Majesty Queen Servini's direct leadership, first lifted the various bans and restrictions on the domestic magic industry and revoked all the privileges previously enjoyed by the ten designated merchant guilds.
Since those ten merchant guilds had all been nationalized after the rebellion was suppressed, the Kingdom Parliament now put all their holdings up for public auction. Any merchant guild in the kingdom intending to enter the magic industry could bid.
Her Majesty Queen Servini had already made her intention to vigorously develop magic industry clear, and she had openly supported its development back when she was still the Princess Royal. Thus, as soon as the public auction was announced, countless merchant guilds throughout the kingdom flocked to it, hoping to seize this opportunity to enter an industry that was about to flourish.
At this point, however, a joint statement issued by the Magic Industry Administration and the Commerce Office attracted even more attention.
The statement was very simple: all previous bans and restrictions on the Xinfei Merchant Guild were lifted.
The moment this statement appeared in the Lampari Weekly, it caused a nationwide sensation.
