Chapter 81: Hexenbiests

If you unravel the history of the earth, you will find that the existence of a ruling class, the nobility, has existed throughout the world.

What was the source of authority of the nobles on earth? As a reincarnated heir to a noble family, I have often wondered about the aristocrats of my previous life on earth.

It could be due to personal leadership, religious beliefs, or the history of a family lineage of rulers.

After spending 12 years on the continent of Eluo, it now seems very unstable to me.

The novelty of the earth are the same people as commoners if they strip off their clothes. They are not blue-blooded horseshoe crabs just because they are nobles. All human beings are equal, and commoners and aristocrats are all homo sapiens.

After all, the source of their authority seemed to be the tautology of being great because they are great. Considering the history of aristocracy being overthrown by the people, it is an authority that can easily collapse at the wrong step.

The source of the aristocracy's authority on the Eluo continent is very simple.

They are great because they are strong.

They have strong bodies and vitality that rarely get sick or injured, and they are able to use powerful magic at will.

It is this power, which is so different from that of commoners, that makes the aristocrats aristocrats.

The history of the continent of Eluo is also the history of battles between humans and magical beasts.

Demonic beasts, which attack humans indiscriminately and bring disasters to the land, can be said to be a kind of natural disaster.

In other words, it is the duty and pride of the nobility to fight and defeat demonic beasts.

If the authority of the nobility were to waver, it would be after an era in which civilization has developed to the point where a mere commoner alone can exterminate a mature demonic beast. At least, I don't think that will be possible in this era in which I live. That is why I can play with commoners on my bed with peace of mind.

As a nobleman, I cannot escape from demonic beasts.

The demonic beasts born in the field live in the world of the weak and the strong, and grow up while repeatedly fighting to the death with other demonic beasts.

When the beast is fully grown, it will leave the field and venture out into the outside world, bringing misfortune to mankind.

It is said that a mature demonic beast, a mature demonic beast, carries all kinds of disasters in its body. , The sphere of human life will be sullied in the blink of an eye.

The strength of a mature magical beast is determined by the size of the field in which it grows.

The field in New Nelly is one of the largest in the Kingdom of Levios. A mature demonic beast that has grown to the point of leaping out of this field would be a considerable threat. If left unchecked, the area centered on New Nellie would have suffered catastrophic damage.

'Boy, I received a letter from your master.

Thanks for your help.”

I took the letter from Tesh and put it on my desk.

As I was about to open it, Tesch, perhaps moved to tears, shook his head and continued.

The Master was very pleased to hear of the boy's success in defeating the magical beast.He said that he had done his work proudly as the eldest son of Quordenze……. “

After learning of the appearance of the demonic beast at the outer city gate, I hurried back to the military base.

The alarm bell had been rung at the frontline base in front of the field.

By the time I arrived at the military base, the troops were ready and waiting for the signal to go out.

The battle against mature demonic beasts is also a battle against time. For this reason, I was given the authority to lead the military action without my father's approval, as long as it was limited to defeating mature demonic beasts. And mother.

It is a matter of dignity for a nobleman if he cannot protect the people of his domain from demonic beasts.

I was about to lead my army past the southern city gate when a mature demonic beast appeared at the perfect moment.

If I were to describe its appearance, it was close to a spoon. It was about the size of two or three elementary school buildings in prehistoric Japan.

Mature demonic beasts generally grow in size, but how big they grow depends on the type. The giant Sponge Bobblehead was a rather small matured magical beast.

Looking at the ground, we could see that the tracks it had crawled on were stained purple, indicating that the earth had been defiled.

Judging from the tracks, it seemed to be heading north in a straight line. Perhaps they had sensed the direction where there were many humans by smell or something, and had come here.

I deployed my troops to surround them, and the soldiers attacked with bows and spears to draw their attention, and I struck them with magic at the right moment.

After two full blows of magic, the giant Sponge Bobble Beast stopped moving, and the mission to defeat it was a success.

Fortunately, there were no fatalities, although some of the soldiers were seriously injured. This was unusual considering the appearance of mature demonic beasts of this scale. It seems that there were more injuries at the frontline base in front of the field.

That, mature demonic beasts do not return to the field, perhaps because they are not comfortable in the field where they come from. Therefore, the soldiers at the front line base evacuated to the inside of the field when they were injured, and it seems that they survived.

When we finished defeating the demonic beasts, it was well past midnight. In the sense of time in my previous life in Japan, the date had long since passed.

After confirming that the beast had been completely put down, I did not return to the castle, but went to my villa in the castle town and went to sleep.

I had intended to get a good night's rest, but when I woke up, it was before sunrise.

I was up too late and could not sleep. Perhaps there were lingering effects of the excitement of the battle.

After taking a morning bath, I had breakfast, and now I am relaxing in my room.

I have nothing more to do because the military commanders have taken care of the cleanup after the defeat of the magical beasts.

Hmm.”

When I read the letter, I found a line of generous words of praise from my father. Defeating a mature demonic beast is the highest honor for a nobleman.

I had told him about the incident Lupetta had told me about before I went to bed, and my father had deemed this important. New Nelly at noon. It seems that they will also search for any other magical beasts that are on the verge of maturing.

My father also instructed me to accompany Lupetta to the military. It would be a small price to pay to make the cargo thief go free and to pay for Mergin's treatment.

Tesch. Call Lupetta immediately. Father's orders.

“Yes, sir.”

As soon as Tesch told my words to the servant waiting outside the room, I heard the sound of running footsteps.

I decided to write a letter of reply to my father.

Mature magical beasts rarely spread unknown strange, intractable, or contagious diseases.

Since I had fought a mature hexenbiest in front of it, there was a possibility that I might have contracted the disease. Therefore, I could not return to New Nellie Castle and spend the night at the villa.

If I contracted the disease, there was a possibility that my father, mother, and Fanny would be infected. I had to avoid that at all costs. I had cured a vicious and strange disease before with a magical healing spell, but I had to be sure.

That is why I cannot talk to my father directly, so I have no choice but to write him a letter.I wrote on his behalf, taking into account the risk of infection.

Hmmm………”

Considering the incubation period, I can't go back to the castle for a while, and I wrote in the letter that I'm leaving for Nambonan City as it is.

I will leave tomorrow as originally planned. Since it was only the military that was in a hurry because of the terrorist attack at the Holy High Church, and everything else was as usual, the preparations for departure were well underway.

The letter from my father said, “I will give you a reward for defeating the demonic beast! Tell me anything!” I wrote one request as an insurance policy.

The content of the letter is that if you execute Cynthia, who belongs to the Holy High Church, please stop the process until I return to New Nellie City. When the church president's terror plot is revealed, there is no possibility that Cynthia will be executed in tandem because of her affiliation with the Holy High Church. I do not want to see a development where Cynthia's head is not found when she returns from Nambonan City.

At the very least, we want to give her a shot before the execution of her.

The letter was handed to Tesh by the civil servant who wrote it on his behalf.Since the letter was addressed to his father and contained many important matters, he decided to have it delivered immediately.

I will take my time to write the letters to my mother and Fanny tonight.

I had been writing the letter in the same pose for a long time, and when I tried to change my posture a little, I noticed that my lower half of my body was tense.

My meat pole has hardened a lot due to the morning wake-up call. Yesterday and the day before, I haven't been able to hold a woman.

A pinkish feeling was swirling in my chest.

Then there was a knock at the door and a servant entered.

Young master, Miss Lupetta has come to see you. Miss Lupetta is here, how may I help you?

You are very early.

She said she was in a hurry.

The image of Lupetta being woken up by a servant at the inn flashed through my mind.

In the letter to my father, I wrote that I would take Lupetta to the military base in time for the army's departure at noon.

It was still early in the morning, so there was plenty of time to spare.

Come to think of it, yesterday, Lupetta said, “I'll do anything. It can't be helped if she says so, I'll have her do anything.

I have nothing more to do, so it's good to have something to do.

I'll do whatever you want me to do.

Yes, sir.

After saying so, the servant left the room. Tesh also went to get ready for the bath and left.

I was left alone in the room, doing my morning radio exercises while waiting for Lupetta.
