《Holy Right : A Multiverse Occultist》Ch-38: Council of Sages
Advertisement
Greenwich is a town in south-east London, England, located in the historic county of Kent and the ceremonial county of Greater London.
It is located in the southeast of England's Greater London area, on the south bank of the River Thames.
The Greenwich Park is one of the Royal Parks of London that covers an area of 74 hectares.
In Greenwich Park, on a hill, there is a world famous, comprehensive observatory— Royal Greenwich Observatory. This is from where the prime meridian passes through.
This observatory has a history of hundreds of years.
Although the Royal Greenwich Observatory was moved away from Greenwich to Herstmonceux 50 years ago, the original site still remains.
Ordinary people think that this observatory was abandoned because it was too old and not functioning properly, but only people in the mysterious world know that the observatory was moved because of special reasons.
The Royal Greenwich Observatory was specially made to be used as the headquarters of the mage association, Greenwich Assembly.
But, this association was attacked to sieze this mana rich zone, so at last the 'Greenwich Assembly' had to flee in embarrassment.
Now, the original site is used as the headquarters by the comprehensive mage association in England, which is the Witenagemot, also known as the 'Council of Sages'.
The origin of the 'Council of Sages' is very complex. It was not established by some great personality or on great ideals.
This 'Council of Sages' was but established by a group of old friends who loved to gossip about the magical world, thus Witenagemot eventually became a mutual aid society where people share information with each other.
Who would have thought that such a small group that didn't even consisted of proper mages will eventually developed into the leader of magical side of United Kingdom.
Unlike other Mage Associations, the Witengemot is more of a research organization with a few wizards as members.
The composition of the Witenagemot is extremely complex, including Mages, Occultists, Fairy Doctors; and even Scientific Experts, Marketplace Researchers, Catholic Priests, Protestant Preachers, Monks, Artists, Capitalists, Nobles, Royalty and some Wealthy individuals.
Even now, the 'Council of Sage' is in no way a compact organization with strict discipline, but rather a loose circle of different people for the purpose of exchanging information among each other.
It also the best channel for people who have a great interest in magical world to step into this mysterious world.
Today, there is an emergency meeting being held at the Greenwich Observatory.
The 'Council of Sages' is called a council instead of a guild, because the managers of this organization are a council of elderly 'sages'.
They use the parliamentary system to decide the direction of the organization in the name of the ancient Greek philosopher Diogenes.
"An emergency meeting has been called today. Is there another Devil Lord who caused a major incident?"

Among the group of gray-haired old 'sages', there is a very special young woman sitting at equal position with them.
She is a beautiful young woman of European ancestry with long platinum blonde hair and green eyes.
The beautiful woman looked to be in her early twenties, she talked in a very bright and bubbly tone but, she carried herself with an aristocratic elegance.
The woman has a charming temperament flowing around her like the most precious perfume in the world.
She was wearing a white sweater with knots embroidered on the neckline, and a precious shawl draped over her shoulders.
Her facial expression was full of helplessness, but her eyes were shining full of curiosity and enthusiasm.
She is the former Chairman of the 'Council of Sages' of Greenwich, and now the special guest consultant, Alice Louise Ove Nafal, who has the moniker of the 'White Hime-Miko'. People always call her by the name of 'Princess Alice'.
Although Princess Alice is the youngest in the parliament, she is the most powerful Hime-Miko in all of Europe. She is also one of the few Hime-Miko who is also a Witch, with all their magical abilities.
Hime-Miko are women descended from divine ancestors, inheriting many of their spiritual powers and abilities. They try to grasp their own innate abilities instead of learning magic.
Divine Ancestors are former mother earth goddesses who have been either defeated by the King of the End, or sacrificed their power to him. They reincarnate in a human form with most of their Divine Power and Authorities lost.
As for the witches, they are one of the various groups of spellcasters in the 'Campione' world. They are described as mages with the disposition of Miko.
Witches are spellcasters who follow a unique form of magic, distinct from Daoist Arts and Hermetic Magic.
So they possess the magical talents of Miko, though in most cases not as powerful as those possessed by Hime-Miko.
Princess Alice forte is not in combat but in auxiliary abilities like Spirit Vision. In addition, she has a lot of talent and possesses great amount of knowledge. That's why she became the youngest Chairman in Witengemot's history.
She has been the chairman for four consecutive years! After that, perhaps the princess felt that being a Chairman didn't suit her, or she was really tired, so she resigned on the grounds of 'physical discomfiture'.
In fact this not untrue, because the Princess Louise is even weaker than ordinary people because of her strong spiritual power.
Princess Alice tends to be in a constant state of poor health. It is the kind of weakness that cannot be cured by either magic or science.
"Sage Princess, this emergency meeting is about the new king."
"Ah, Mr. Sage, please don't use this honorific name to address me, it will make me feel embarrassed."

Princess Alice sat upright and said elegantly said in a frivolous tone.
Then she inquired with an expectant smile:
"...There are still very few reports on the new king in our 'Council of Sages'. Is there anything special this time?"
"This time the new king successfully killed another Heretic God in Italy. According to the information from our sources, the Heretic God is the Archangel Metatron recorded in the Book of Enoch."
"We don't know the Authority gained by the new king after killing Metatron for the time being, but for the Authorities that the new king got on killing Michael, we have already discovered one or two things."
"...This is the scene of the battle on Ponza Island at that time. We used the military satellites of the English government to film it."
An old Scholar of Diogenes rank pressed the remote in his hand to play a video directly on the projector.
The mages of this world are not resistant to the use of technology. On the contrary, they use technology very well, even in magic research.
Just like in this battle between a Campione and Heretic God from where no mortal can come back alive, they used advance technology to view the power from their own eyes without taking any risks.
"The destructive power of the Campiones to cause trouble is still so strong, whether it is the old kings or the new king."
Seeing that Ponza Island in the video was completely annihilated under Roy's power, Princess Alice sighed.
"Princess Alice, we will later seal this video in the archives. Only Diogenes-level councilors can view it."
"Any information related to the 'kings' should be kept carefully to prevent ourselves from offending a certain king..."
"...According to the known information, the power acquired by the new king after slaying Michael is different from the powers of other Campiones."
"We assume that it is a Authority that has multiple purposes. Now the new king has exposed five functions. As for the numbers that have not been shown in public, we don't know."
"One is an extremely powerful melee combat capabilities."
"The second is the large-scale sky-fire power that destroyed Ponza Island."
"The third is the power to summon the Angel legion."
"The fourth is the power to transform into an Angel. From it's effects, it should be similar to the Godspeed of the 'Black Prince'."
"And there is another magic eye that transforms people into pillars of salt just like the Marquis Voban's ."
"... It is impossible for a Campione to obtain multiple authorities from killing a single Heretic God."
"Therefore, we suspect that these all powers are brached off abilities of the same Authority, so they have certain limitations. The specific information on limitations is the secret of the 'king'. We dare not pry into it."
"Though the powers that the new king used are all related to Saint Michael the Archangel's deeds, but the Archangel has so many achievements that we can't even start to guess the powers of the remaining abilities of the new king."
The old scholar explained it to everyone present in an accented tone.
"That, did you name the Authority of the new king?"
Princess Alice folded her hands on her abdomen and leaned on her chair as she asked.
"We have asked the opinion of the new king. As per the orders of the new king, this power was named ."
"Princess Alice, please see, this is what we learned from your former knight Paolo Brandelli. Some information about the character of the new king and how to not cross his lines."
"...As for more specific details, that is a secret that only the new king's exclusive knight Erica Brandelli can know. But the Diavolo Rosso of the Copper Black Cross is tight-lipped."
The old scholar handed a paper file to Princess Alice.
After sternly going through the information, Princess Alice said with a headache:
"...This is really the type of Campione I am most afraid of encountering. You write in the information that the character of the new king is very similar to the Marquis Voban, but in my opinion, he looks more like Alexander Gascoigne."
"...No, he is more difficult to deal with than the Marquis Voban and Alexander Gascoigne combined."
"Gascoigne has a calm personality and likes to make fail-proff plans first, but it is precisely because of his caution that he will have a bottom line. As long as we can grasp it, we can predict his further core of actions."
"Marquis Voban is ruthless and unscrupulous to achieve his goals, but he will be satisfied as long as he gets what he needs, and as long as we adopts gentle methods, it is not impossible to please him."
"The new king is different. From what he did in Rome, we can see that he not only has enough willfulness, but also has wisdom and strategy hidden behind his each moves, which is the type I fear the most."
"...A Devil King who has high wisdom and strategy and likes to plan is simply a disaster!"
