The Tales of Draconic Warlock

"Now that's over. Let's speak about the matter for which we gathered this meeting. As Arthur was saying before, in five months a new batch of students would be graduating. You can check the files given to you for their names and what they have accomplished during their time in the academy", the old man said.

Everyone could see the files on their tablets.

The technology in this world is far better than Earth in some aspects. One may compare that it didn't take the right route but the route it has taken is right for this world.

There are no trains here. Once upon a time, they were developed but quickly scrapped because of the monsters. Roads are a different thing and Rails are different.

Trains travel between places on rails. If those are damaged then the trains can't cross them. The only thing they could do was to go back and wait until the rails were repaired. There is no other choice for them.

Coming to the roads, even if they are damaged, travellers can still use them as long as they are not bridges. Moreover, turning back would be far simpler when compared to trains. The trains can't turn back, they have to move back at a much slower rate.

To actually turn back, they need crossings between rail tracks. It is a hassle. So trains were abandoned and were never developed again.

Coming to the vehicles on the roads, they were drawn by tamed beasts. There was no need for engines as the world provided the best engines in the form of monsters. As long as the carriages are good and someone is strong enough to tame powerful monsters, the vehicles can move faster than land vehicles on Earth.

It may look like some aspects of technology were ignored but with the help of magic, Ragos can be said to be much more developed than Earth. The ignored aspects were there because they were either not useful or cost more than it was worth.

What was seen in Glessaria was not the top of the world. It is but a small kingdom. To see the true marvels, one has to go to the empires. It was only there that one could see the true power of Ragos.

It may follow medieval feudalism and appear to be backward when compared to Earth but Ragos is more than developed than Earth.

All the elders started to go through the files of the graduating students and their evaluations. These files are confidential and anyone can access them easily. Either they had to have higher access or had skills that could easily hack the records of the kingdom.

Luckily, all of these old people here are either Tier-7 or above, making it easier for them to access the records easily.

The kingdom of Glessaria hides a secret that not many are eligible to know. The secret is about these old people that are now seated, and discussing the future of the graduating students.

These people are above Tier-7, and they are in the low triple digits but to the outside world, half of them are hidden and supposed to be dead. Only a few of them would work in the light and are known to the outside world.

These elders have multiple skills crossing level 50 and a few above level 80. There are a few people here who have skill levels nearing level 100. In a decade or so, they are sure to reach level 100 and also the ones that decide the fate of kingdom of Glessaria.

This is what they do. They train in seclusion and would only come out when something of importance takes place like war and this meeting to discuss the future pillars of the kingdom.

The students from the academies will soon graduate. So based on the evaluations so far, these old men would decide what jobs they are eligible for and based on that, the students would receive various job offers.

These offers would soley from the nobles and royal family. In this world almost anyone that has power is a noble but there are few families and organizations that have wealth and some power but are not nobles. These families or organizations would send invitations too but most of these have no representatives here.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Only guilds like Adventurers's Guild and Mercenary Guild has a representatives here, but those are not too many in the first place. Everyone here is above Tier-7. So if a noble family has no such person, then they would have no representatives here but they would get the data of a few students, the ones that the people at this table wouldn't see fit for the jobs that they can offer.

In the world of Ragos, only strength determines what you can have and can't. This is something that everyone understands and makes do with what they can. Even if they are nobles, without someone in Tier-7, they can never exert much power in the first place.

So what they do is to reach Tier-7 and above as soon as possible. This is why, talents in the families are nutured a lot. the chances of one with talent would most likely to reach Tier-7 than the one that is not.

"Okay gentlemen, now that we have completed the review of the files. Let's discuss where the students would be allocated. The first student we would discuss is Magnus Frostwolf, student of Royal Academy. He is someone who stood at the top not once, not twice but consistencely from the start. He would be a valuable asset, so let's discuss...."

Royal Academy...

Magnus has just returned to the academy and was preparing on how to make sure that Angela would accept what he has in mind.

He has no idea that his entire story is being reviewed by the top of the kingdom.

Magnus is planning on how to get Celine, Angela's twin without causing a ruckus, which he know would happen if Angela finds out what he actually planned for her twin.

Angela is a jealous one and if she finds out that the man he likes is also trying to get her sister into his bed, there is a high chance that she will strangle him.

So, he has to plan carefully and make it happen like it is the natural way of happening. Otherwise he might even lose the twin he alrady have, instead of getting the other one that he don't.

"Alright, whatever happens, happens. Let's try and see if it works. Moroever, its not like I am proposing to take her sister now. It would be a gradual thing", Magnus muttered to himself as he was on his way to see Angela.
