What I wanted to talk about, and hear from them are divided into two subjects.
The King told us everything they know without hiding anything. Each country that participated in the campaign charged a heavy tax on Hallia. But then, the Heroes took over the country. As an agreement, then sent the beastmen survivors as collateral for the tax and they were worked as slaves in order to compensate. Then in recent years, A few heroes, mostly a pair was sent to each country as support. That was also the same in Haval, but it was more like monitoring the country than actually being a helping hand.
Thats how it ended up like this I do want to free those beastmen slaves as soon as possible, but they have nowhere to live now. Even if they did return, there was nowhere they could return to anymore
I see, well, let ask somebody for a bit
Huh? Oh, alright
I immediately connected the magic tool I carry for communication and talked to Testania-san. I reported to her what I have gathered so far along with the information they have given me.
So thats what happened. I see, so thats what you meant is that so. Aidle, what did you think after hearing it directly from them?
I think they will be fine
Then I guess its fine to show them that? Like what I have said before, if you think of that country to be trustworthy then I have no problems with it.
Got it. Is there anything else?
Thats all. Ah, could you ask the king if he knows of someone calledAldreic?
Understood. Well then
OK, confirmation done. This country will be the first one to open the road to our goals.
As a result of considerably deliberations, I have considered Galania to be trustworthy and believe in it
Really, are you sure?
Its fine, but first of all, Mondil-san, is there anyone here who is proficient in terms of this countrys history and traditions?
I am one myself. I have been taught everything about the country, its traditions and history as part of my education
Is that so, then do you know something about theFairys Covenant?
About to sip his tea, Mondol-san suddenly stopped, then stares at me with a face that says he couldnt believe what he has heard.
Just now, what did you say again? Did you just sayFairys Covenant?
My King, what in the world is that?
Meinen was confused hearing that term for the first time, so he directed his focus to Mondol-san to ask. Just as Testania-san said, Royalty will be able to know.
It is a very old tradition. It has been passed since the age of myths and legends. It is one of the secret bonds passed down through royalty, and would only be told to none other than successive kings, a story that could even be said as part of a myth Aidle, how were you able to learn of such information.
I think it would be to tell you about that, but first can you read this letter?
I took out the letter received from Testania-san from my hood, then handed it to Mondol-san. While impressed by the craftsmanship of the letter, he carefully opens it and read slowly the contents. The room went silent for a few minues.
as for the one who handed this. Would it be alright to know who?
The current generations Fairy Queen
Fairy!?
Is that really
Belmour-san and Meinen-san unanimously reacted to what Mondol-san After all as he reminisced staring at the ceiling. It was probably because of the contents of the letter.
Aidle, see here. This is the emblem of the fairies, the same one that was written in our history books. Only people belonging to royalty would know of it. If theres a person who would know of such information, they be nothing more than other royal families or inline to it
At the end of the letter, there was a stamp where you could see 3 fairy silhouettes. I heard that the contents of the letter would make them cooperate with the fairies, but I dont really know what the message is.
If you are saying that you are related to this, then there should be conclusive evidence to its authenticity. So if possible will you show us proof?
I understand. Then Arena, Ill be cancelling Humanization. It is fine to show your true self
Ui~
After a short flash of light, the figure of Arena disappeared. Ruffling inside the clothes, Arena finds her way out. The King and everyone else stare at the entire scene without blinking.
Then, her face pops out. Followed by her whole body coming out, the palm sized Arena then flapping her wings, flew towards the bunch of candy in front of Mondol-san. After picking one, she handed it to Mondol-san. After she handed it to his trembling hand Arena flew back towards me landing on my hair.
Pulling on my hair, she was demanding me to Transform too but sorry, I do it later. Okay, okay, Ill do it later ok, please calm down for now.
Fairy
At current interactions, everyone was staring at Arena as if they would be able going to bore holes into her. Lets also add more bombs while they are still excited. Impact is important in these cases after all.
By the way, Im also one, a Fairy
Im not a fairy but a red dragon. An ancient one
Eh!?
The three humans who witnessed it froze. Forgive me for that but its better to reveal it early on you know?
It was a really good thing that this room is completely soundproofed. If any of these facts were to spread out, the whole country would be in total chaos
Meinen-san was flopped on the desk. Magenta-san in the back was also in a confused state. Then soon enough, Mondol-san finally rebooted and resumed asking questions.
And so, Can you tell us the purpose of fairy-samas making contact with us?
Un. There were many World Trees where fairies reside in the world, but almost all of them have never given birth to fairies for several years now. We are on a journey to find out the cause. One of the conclusions we deduced was maybe the existence of a Demon Lord. A reason for world trees to do that would usually be in preparation for a world crisis
I see probably knowing the fact that it hasnt changed even after the fall of the Demon Lord, were you able to find anything else that may have been the cause?
At the moment there is only one
Its about the foreign individuals that are still in this world. They are just selfishly doing what they wanted in this world. If nothing changes even after a few years, then wouldnt that be a bingo? Is what I thought of. Mondol-san also agrees to my conclusion.
But I dont really know their real purpose If only I could at least find a clue
Then I guess, you have only one choice. That is to go to Hallia
That would already be equivalent to visiting a country that would surely not cooperate. Although the current issue may have passed, Gallania is still part of the coalition with Hallia. If it they were to start moving now, they would immediately notice. Well, thats not really the main focus for today.
That is fine for now since well be the once to handle that. The main problem is about the beastmen. We just cant leave that alone
Nuh About that
He explains that right now, the support of the slaves is currently boosting the economy of the country. Suddenly losing them without preparations would prematurely lead the country to its destruction. Thats why at the moment, it wont be that easy to release them. I also understand what he was saying.
Of course I also understand that, there are some that are certainly living a stable lifestyle and it would be safer for them be taken as slaves for now. They were at least able to live in the bare minimum. But how long will that last? 10 years? A hundred years? What about the next generations? If that continues wont beastmen be treated be nothing more than livestock?
They would be nothing more than just horses pulling carts or chickens in an aviary.
Thats why I want the money to be spent for the slaves
Bellmour, what do you think?
Well, the original problem is actually where and how to procure the money that doesnt exist
Wont it be good if we could work it our with the beastmen
What do you mean?
Then I suggested. I believe this would be the best for both sides.
Lets make a Beastman Country
Heres how we do it. I would use my magic to create its foundation in a land close to here, and they will to start life from there. Because they are developers of magic tools, working with representatives would allow them to develop tools for various businesses. The materials may also be provided or acquired close by.
And not only that, we could also analyze, recreate, dismantle, and sell dungeon-class magic tools. Not only here but to even other countries
That certainly would make a lot of profit, but establishing it would probably be difficult. It would take a lot of time to clear up a land in this area filled with demons crawling all over the place or maybe you
Yes, there are no problems with that. First is just for us to find a suitable location, the rest would also be handled by us. Then after that, they would take care of it on their own
If they were to witness or sense La Veils presence in her Dragon Form, most demons wont even come close. Next, I would be supporting them with foundations, but I will go dungeon diving after the country stabilizes for a bit. Lastly is to provide the proper research facilities needed for development.
So, what do you think?
at the moment, I dont really know. I will try visiting several places but I dont know if everyone would be cooperative enough to release their slaves but there would definitely some who would need compensations.
Next would just be the matter of how to handle the tools made by beastmen. Selling them to other countries would definitely be a big benefit. Trees and materials for construction can be procured from the forests nearby, and food can be procured at the same time. I dont know you can use this in order to supplement money at a later time, but I think this would definitely sell
I arranged a variety of board games on the table.
Wha, what are these pieces?
A board game where you put this pieces on the board. I will pass a manual to it later because there are various rules, but I would like to sell it to everyone because it is actually easy to make
The three people stood up in surprise and stare at the games. They were all made by fairy magic but its not impossible for it to be made by people.
I got it Ill learn of the particulars in regards to the board pieces. Ill also take care of the finer details at a later time. But for now, there is one more thing to ask and needs immediate attention.
What is it?
Our biggest problem at the moment, about the heroes
