Chapter 113: Djinn Sultan
"The Arcadia Magic Laboratory... Are we talking about the Grand Mages from the Tower faction’s magic academy?" Ethan’s eyes flickered with curiosity.
The Tower faction was the most proficient in magic among all the major powers, boasting countless types of mages. The most renowned among them were the Silver Empire and the Seven Cities Alliance.
The Silver Empire was the primary empire established and supported by the Tower faction in the main world of Glory Lords X. Its power was formidable—on par with, or even surpassing, the mightiest nations.
In the grand scheme of Glory Lords X, the Silver Empire held a status comparable to the legendary Holy Griffon Empire of the past and the current stronghold of the Forest faction—AvLee!
It was a force to be reckoned with.
As for the Seven Cities Alliance, it was a mage faction that had splintered from the Silver Empire at its peak. While its overall strength didn’t quite match that of a superpower, it still stood above most ordinary nations.
Mages, by nature, were highly individualistic and specialized, making them notoriously stubborn and self-centered. Over time, differing ideologies emerged, leading to the formation of distinct schools of thought. This internal competition between magical disciplines was fierce—so much so that it was the very reason the Seven Cities Alliance broke away from the Silver Empire in the first place.
To them, the Silver Empire represented stagnation and outdated traditions.
The Seven Cities Alliance, on the other hand, stood for openness and freedom.
This ideological divide even extended to their military structures, with both factions developing entirely different unit compositions.
They commanded various creatures—some summoned, others crafted through magical artifacts and imbued with life through arcane power.
