Chapter 74: My five months in the academy (3)



Don\'t think about Ragos as an advanced world. Though there are many modern facilities like on Earth, there is a lot missing here. It can be only said that this world is better than the medieval world, where there are mobiles, the Internet, etc...

Magic is something...how shall I put this... magical. Anything can be achieved through this but there are many avenues that were not even touched. They might touched such avenues in the past but lost in the subsequent wars.

It happens. This was not unique to this world but to all worlds. Wars destroy knowledge. The knowledge that was gained by working for centuries.

The knowledge that was gained through hard work would disappear when a war breaks. Of course, it was not easy to make that happen. To make such a thing happen, the war has to be a huge war that consumes countries and races.

On Earth, these types of wars happen. Though not always huge, there would be many barbarians who would rather destroy and plunder, rather than create. There was much knowledge that was lost on an insignificant planet like Earth, which has a very small history cycle.

Ragos on the other hand, has a history that goes back thousands of years. Many civilizations rose and fell in this world. Though all the knowledge was not preserved, from time to time there would be someone who unearths the ancient knowledge that was lost ages ago.

Most of the time, the knowledge would be incomplete but even incomplete knowledge from ancient times was said to be much more profound than the present knowledge.

It was said that the internet and mobiles were derived from that ancient knowledge. If not for that, there would have been no information boom in this world at this time. Of course, the knowledge that was gained was complete, so many of the present-day powerhouses had to sit down and create the internet based on the knowledge that they obtained.

The one who obtained this knowledge is now one of the powerful mogul, Jonas Ardey, whom no one dares to provoke. He is considered a neutral ground and whatever power initiates war with him would be considered an enemy of the other powers.

This was because he kind of created communications in this present world. His customers include not just small kingdoms as I live in but empires that span multiple Gleserias.

He was said to be from the kingdom of Konn, which is far away from Gleseria. So our kingdom doesn\'t need to think about troubling Jonas Ardey. Though he doesn\'t live there at this moment and was said to have settled in a powerful empire, the kingdom of Konn being his birthland, enjoys the protection of the empire.

Of course, it was sad in the books that Jonas has made an agreement to protect and develop Konn, but he also put some conditions. He didn\'t want to cause too much trouble for his new home. So it was said that the empire would only save Konn if the threat was too much for them to survive.

Even the development can be done as long as it is favorable to the empire, as long as Konn doesn\'t suffer in the process.

I can say that he was interested in being tied up by the empire but also not to his birth kingdom.

From what I read, Jonas\'s family wasn\'t noble nor were rich. He was born in a poor home. He was lucky that he awakened among his family and later he was sponsored by the kingdom through the academies there.

That was his repayment for the kindness that they showed but he knew that taking him was not some gamble but a common thing. The academy would provide a lot of students with such possibilities. When in the academy he was said to be average, so the resources that tilted towards him are not high.

He was lucky to stumble into an ancient ruin and find the incomplete knowledge that changed his life forever. That ruin not only made him rich but also powerful.

If others had found that he obtained such knowledge, they would have taken it from him without paying a single coin but when he returned from that ruin he was not the same Jonas that everyone knew.

His talent was considered average. It was estimated that he would only reach Tier-5 at best by the end of his time but when he came of the ruin, he was already Tier-5. From then onwards he progressed faster than his peers.

This trend continued till he reached Tier-8. Once he reached that rank, his progress slowed down.

He only showed that he has the knowledge after he reached Tier-7. After Tier-7, it was not easy to kill each other, if the other party wanted to run away.

If they do something to the family of the escaped one, then there would be nothing holding them down. One day they would definitely return to seek revenge and would burn everything that they built.

So normally, the families of Tier-7 and above aren\'t touched unless that person is killed first. Until then the family would be just suppressed and controlled, so that they a have bargaining chip, if the escaped Tier-7 or above one has exceeded their strength.

This was why I decided to show my true talents only after reaching Tier-7. I won\'t put out everything but from that point, I don\'t need to hide myself much. I can easily defeat or defend myself at that point.

I would openly show some power but would keep some trump cards for myself. No matter what rank you achieve, some trump cards are always necessary.

Wait, where did I go?

Sorry, I was saying that...
