Chapter 600: Chapter 442: A Day in the Life of the Girls_1 Chapter 600: Chapter 442: A Day in the Life of the Girls_1 “Whoosh…”
The grand golden door slowly opened, and Ann, stretching lazily, walked in cheerfully.
“Finally finished all the government affairs, now I can save some time to continue reading.”
“Ann, don’t you need to revise?”
Greiya, who was by Ann’s side, couldn’t help but remind her as she looked at Ann’s cheerfulness.
“The practical examination is just around the corner…”
“Ah, don’t worry, and besides, I won’t participate in this practical drill, Greiya, it’s the same for you too, isn’t it?”
Hearing Ann’s question, an embarrassed smile appeared on Greiya’s face. There was no denying that following Duanmu Huai’s training had made both girls grow a lot. Without saying much, before encountering Duanmu Huai, Ann was the number one mage in Manaria and basically had exemptions for the annual college practical exams.
The reason was simple, once Ann made a move, the other students would just lay back and win without having to practice.
Greiya was relatively better, but this year she was also exempted like Ann. The reason being Greiya’s Dragon Roar – this ability was not only terrifying but also widely applicable. Combined with the fact that the two of them had fought several times more than the students at Manaria, they naturally didn’t need to bully the children anymore.
“When the Knight returns this time, I’m planning to discuss with him and get some students to participate in the Tribunal’s activities. That way, they can broaden their horizons, increase their experiences, and gain a better understanding, isn’t that right? Seth’s got his Magic Guard, I think we can organize one too.”
As the princess of Manaria, Ann naturally saw Seth as a standard. Although she found Seth’s system and magic strength to be mediocre, it did not mean Ann did not plan to display the national power of Manaria.
“How about you, Greiya?”
“I… think it’s fine the way it is.”
Hearing Ann’s question, Greiya curled up her body and responded in a low voice. Seeing this, Ann frowned.
“Greiya, that’s no good. It’s only here that I’m saying this, but you also need to cultivate some trustworthy talents. Otherwise, when you become the Queen of Regnes, it will be hard if there are no trustworthy people.”
At this point, Ann lowered her voice.
“Moreover, you wouldn’t want any problems to arise between the knight and Regnes.”
As a princess, Ann was politically sensitive. She knew clearly what her good friend was worried about. In fact, what Ann thought was not wrong. Each king needed to rely on its own faction to govern the country. She too had her own loyal subordinates and ministers. So Ann wanted to let them come and help the Tribunal. On one hand, it would enhance the relationship between the Tribunal and Manaria. On the other hand, if everyone had been through combat together, wouldn’t the affection be deeper?
As for what kind of combat, that’s another story.
“But… the knight doesn’t like alien races…”
Greiya timidly voiced her thoughts, and Ann shook her head.
“It’s not about what the knight likes or dislikes, it’s more about the rules of the Tribunal. As a representative of the Tribunal, he must abide by the rules… but the knight hasn’t been too bad to you… Right!”
As she spoke, Ann seemed to remember something and suddenly clapped her hands.
“I remember you once mentioned that there are some Dragonkin like you in Regnes.”
Greiya simply nodded. Her birth was the result of the union of the king of Regnes and a human woman. Besides love, there was also a political intention to signify the friendliness between the Dragon Race and Humans.
The so-called “leading by example”. The king had taken a human woman as his wife, naturally, some of the Dragon Race followed and married human women, which led to the birth of some Dragonkin. However, these Dragonkin were few in number within Regnes and didn’t hold any influence. As a princess, Greiya was better off, but those other Dragonkin inevitably faced discrimination or bullying.
In the past, Greiya had talked about this problem with Ann, but back then, Ann didn’t have a good solution either.
But now there was a clear one.
“You can bring those Dragonkin to the Tribunal. They’re not happy in Regnes anyway, and the Tribunal has a clear judging standard for humans. Look, isn’t Felin living quite well here? If there are a group of Dragonkin helping out here, wouldn’t it be better?”
This was one of the reasons why Ann made this proposal. The Tribunal had a clear definition of humans and aliens. A standard skull was a pure human, and a mutated one was not a pure human, but more like a subhuman.
Of course, the Tribunal had its own standard for judging subhumans. Firstly, your ancestors must at least be human. Secondly, there is no reproductive isolation between you and humans. The standard for subhumans was that humans had mutated, and the heredity of the mutation was stable, so they could be considered subhumans.
In other words, Greiya, as a child born from a union between a human and the Dragon Race, was classified as a subhuman, even though her skull was not pure (since it still had horns).
Conversely, the Ashali People, despite their very similar appearance to humans, were pure alien species because their ancestors were not humans.
