The First Magic World War

Chapter 349: 331, Holy Light Divine State Title

Being ordered to stay in Strasbourg, although he could date Anne every day, Charles actually felt quite gloomy. The worsening supply situation and the increasingly depressive atmosphere in society, accompanied by the Patrolling Army’s unchecked searches of pedestrians on the streets, were not very pleasant.

If he had a choice, he would rather be in South Serif, or even with Behemoth, together with his own Westwind Knights, because having control over a territory afforded more freedom.

He didn’t know how much longer the investigation targeting him would need to continue.

While chatting idly with Philedrica and Sophia Garanord, Charles suddenly noticed a slip of paper on the table. He casually picked it up; it bore three lines of text: The first line read, “That Golden Ring is the controller of the unfinished Holy Light Divine State Title.” The second line read, “The Holy Light Divine State Title was forged using the body and soul of another Divine Creature.” The third line read, “Give up any hope of controlling the Holy Light Divine State Title.”

Charles immediately understood that the note was from Golden Ram Herolf; he didn’t understand why the Old Goat was telling him this great secret.

Without any change in expression, Charles crumpled the note and casually threw it into a nearby trash bin.

Being an Earthling, Charles had some habits that were hard to change, such as not littering, so he had fashioned dozens of trash bins and placed them all around Elysian Pastoral Street No. 58.

Philedrica also saw the slip of paper but didn’t see its content; noticing a fleeting look in Sophia Garanord’s eyes, she knew the other must have seen something and planned to ask her later. Then she heard Charles ask, “Has anyone heard of the Holy Light Divine State Title?”

Philedrica was surprised that Charles actually revealed this secret!

In fact, Charles didn’t think this matter could count as a secret at all—St. Michael the Archangel was just so-so.

He simply believed that “two heads are better than one” and saw no need to hide such matters; doing so could mean missing out on readily available intelligence.

Philedrica shook her head; she honestly had not heard of the Holy Light Divine State Title.

Sophia Garanord, however, was slightly surprised and said, “Isn’t that one of the twelve Legendary Warships?”

Above the Seven Seas, there were twelve Legendary Warships!

These twelve Legendary Warships were recorded in textbooks at the university, but Charles hadn’t heard of the Holy Light Divine State Title and his expression showed a hint of suspicion.

Sophia Garanord smiled slightly and said, “Above the Seven Seas, there are twelve Legendary Warships that have gone through three major versions. The Holy Light Divine State Title was a Legendary Warship from the first version.”

“During the second version, three Legendary Warships were replaced and, without exception, all disappeared.”

Charles asked in slight surprise, “How come I’ve never heard of this event?”

Sophia Garanord spoke in a low voice, “Because the Royal Families of various countries ordered the censorship of this news, and universities cooperated by altering the publicly distributed textbooks.”

“I only know about this because my family possesses related books. If you’re interested in the Holy Light Divine State Title, Charles, I can bring a few related books for you to borrow, and you can return them whenever.”

Charles quickly said, “Then I thank you, Sophia.”

He was indeed very interested in the Holy Light Divine State Title and wanted to know what exactly it was. The Old Goat’s mysterious words had piqued his interest even more.

Sophia Garanord readily agreed and said, “I haven’t really gone through those books either, just have a general impression. Somehow, the Kingdom of Saint Michael, overnight, obtained its guardian spirit and an Ancient Magic Warship!”

“That Ancient Magic Warship is the Holy Light Divine State Title!”

“Afterward, the ship disappeared, but the Kingdom of Saint Michael gained another ship called the Queen Bee.”

“Many records consider the Holy Light Divine State Title to be the same as the Queen Bee, just with a different name.”

“Some believe they are two different Ancient Magic Warships.”

“As for the specifics, I don’t remember them, just a notion that the Holy Light Divine State Title was incredibly huge, more than ten times the size of the Queen Bee.”

Charles was astonished. The Queen Bee was already a colossal vessel, such massive ships were rarely seen even on the Earth he had traveled to, let alone one ten times larger; Earth’s technology couldn’t produce it.

If it were not for the note from the Old Goat and the fact that he indeed possessed three Golden Rings, he would have leaned towards the belief that the Holy Light Divine State Title was the Queen Bee, but with the note and the rings, the possibility of them being two distinct Ancient Magic Warships seemed greater.

Charles pondered for a long while but couldn’t figure it out. Suddenly, he wanted to return to St. Michael Island to see the other Divine Creature and to check for himself if the Holy Light Divine State Title was actually there.@@novelbin@@

After all, in a short time, he was going to send a group of Leopard People to Cappadocia and St. Michael Island, so it would be convenient for him to go along.

Charles asked Sophia Garanord a few more questions but still couldn’t grasp the crux of the matter.

As it was getting late, Sophia Garanord took her leave while Philedrica, because it wasn’t convenient for her to depart, stayed overnight at Elysian Pastoral Street No. 58, and Charles prepared a guest room for her.

The next morning, the Leopard People girl left without saying goodbye. Charles got up and didn’t see her but didn’t mind; he ate breakfast as usual, practiced at home for the whole morning, had lunch with Anne at noontime, and then stayed at 221B Baker Street in the Val de Vaz District for the afternoon.

When Anne finished work, she headed to 221B Baker Street, and the two spent some time together before Charles saw Anne home, then he used the Mirror Gate and appeared on St. Michael Island.

The current state of St. Michael Island was much more prosperous than when the Golden Ram Herolf’s fleet had occupied it.

Menilman’s leadership was far superior to that of the Old Goat. Although she didn’t get the three Golden Rings and couldn’t control St. Michael the Archangel, possessing three Magical Alchemy Warships and several hundred ships meant that St. Michael Island remained an impregnable naval base.

Charles didn’t alert anyone and quietly, using the Infinite Mirror Realm, roamed around the island before finally finding the entrance to the Underground Labyrinth.

Although Menilman had discovered the Underground Labyrinth, she had only sealed it off without exploring it, as she was too busy and didn’t see the necessity of exploring this Underground Labyrinth.

Therefore, the Underground Labyrinth was empty and unguarded.

Charles had been there twice before since the Old Goat had moved a mirror down to lure him out.

Charles quickly located the spot where the Golden Ram Herolf had lured him the last time, but he didn’t discover anything.

Charles wandered around, and the Labyrinth Power he possessed played a role, allowing him to find the entrance to at least three lower levels in one go. As he delved deeper, based on the coordinates, he was almost at sea level.
