Frontier Lord Starts Out With a Population of 0
Dagger Power
After that, I checked the dagger and found the following.
First of all, this dagger could only be treated like an axe with similar signs.
If I remember it in my hand, I could release the magic of poison or stop the magic of poison... Hubert, Sahai, and the Dogs would remember it in the same way, but there was no reaction, and I could only feel that strange discomfort.
Next, it was found that the power of this dagger can be chosen.
Hubert said that magic doesn't work only for the demons... so I tried... poison magic besides Sahee! And if you remember it in your personal name, that's right, except for the Dogs! It was the same when I remembered it under the name of the race.
The exception, or rather, Hubert, is because of the mix of Beast blood, not just the human race! Even if you specify it, it will be subject to the magic of poison... other than subhumans or beasts! by specifying.
Except for the demons! That's probably true, but the power of this knife is so narrow that it's only as wide as I've spread my hands... it's impossible to protect a rock-salt deposit that's too wide with this power.
Then Hubert said that the demons buried it to protect the rock salt deposit is also incorrect... I wonder if it's possible that the demons just didn't realize the existence of this dagger or that the magic of poison doesn't work in the first place? I think it is.
... after completing such an investigation, we talked about what to do with this dagger again... whether to crush it, take it home, or bury it back in its original way... It might be the property of the Devil Clan, but it would be strange to crush it or take it home on your own, and it would interfere with future investigations and mining...
That's why I split up with Hubert, who said he would continue to investigate the deposit, and the dog tribes, who would serve as his guards, and Sahi, who said he would never go there alone... and went to the ghost village alone with a dagger and a battle axe.
----Yurt, the village chief of the Ghost tribe
"I see... I've never seen or heard of such a powerful dagger.
We've never heard of the magic of poison not working, and even if our ancestors buried it to protect the deposit, we'll never forget to tell you something so important... you must be mistaken.
As I sat facing each other, I took out my dagger and gently offered it... the mall would say that as soon as it was in my hand.
"In the first place, I don't really know if it will activate if I think about it...
Nh... if you put some magic into it, it'll suck in magic like a gem... but I can't feel the magic of poison or the discomfort at all.
... by the way, I'm trying to make sure you're the only one who gets magic right now, right? Is it on?
Holding the dagger out of the sheath and saying so, I give back my words with a bitter smile to the cool and laughing mall.
"Ah... it seems that the magic of poison didn't work for me before the dagger. It doesn't work because there's no magic to disturb it...."
"Hee... I see...
... well, I've never seen or heard of such a dagger before, so why don't you do whatever you want?
Whether we bury it again or crush it, or take it home, we don't care.
... I'm more concerned about the wilderness and the ownership of the rock salt deposit than that right now.
I don't object to that being your land, because I'm not interested in grass free land.
But... if I can't pick up the rock salt because it's your land, I'll be in trouble for you.
I nodded that I understood, and then I returned my words to the mall that narrowed my eyes.
"I want you to rest assured that we will not ban the mining of rock salt even if it becomes our territory.
This is where the demons first found and used it, so I won't do that.
I'm sure the details will be decided after all this discussion... as far as I'm concerned, I wish we and the Demons could keep an eye on the rock salt deposit... and manage it together so that we don't mine too much or sell too much rock salt.
If you sell it indefinitely because it's so much, it'll be gone someday... and I have to make sure it doesn't. "
With my words... the mall, who was staring at us with his narrow eyes, smiled and threw his dagger back into his sheath.
"I wouldn't complain if you did.
As for the details... I'll let Zorg go on my behalf, so talk to Zorg. "
"Okay, I will."
In reply to Mall's words, I... take the dagger and put it in my pocket.
I stood up and wondered if I should have talked to you... and when I tried to leave Yurt behind, Mall said, "I thought so..." and then he threw a voice with a meaningful resonance.
"... did you say that your axe, like your dagger, can only be used by you?
Is there anything else like that?
I stopped my legs and looked back... I nodded with a little thoughtfulness before returning my words.
"I feel the same way I got the stick before.
... well, Uncle Ben can use it, so it's not just me... "
"Uncle, hey.
Don't you have the magic to play with Ben?
"Oh, yeah, only me and Uncle Ben don't have magic in Ilke Village."
"... I see.
That dagger, as I said before, if you pour in magic, you'll suck in the magic... maybe 100 jewels... No, maybe you can store 1000 magic pieces.
If that dagger had enough magic in it... it might have released enough poison magic to fill all the rock salt deposits. "
That makes his face wrinkled deeply... wondering if he's laughing or angry, Mall with an unspeakable expression... shows a worrying look for a while before he keeps talking.
"... suppose. If we wanted to protect that rock-salt deposit, we could use dozens of gems.
Just use a few dozen gems to spell life sensing magic.
That said... it doesn't make any sense to use 1000 gems of magic.
... if it doesn't make sense and you use 1000 gems of magic to do it, it's not us, but someone else... who doesn't know the value of magic.
... for example, Diaz, someone of your kind who doesn't have magic...
I still wonder how those who don't have magic gathered so much magic... maybe the dagger, axe, burning stick and so on are the weapons made by such a blood clan for that blood clan.
It's a weapon for the non-magical bloodline, so it can only be used on you and Ben who don't have magic...
... well, why would the whole non-magical bloodline want such a weapon? "
That said, Mall laughed very hard... listening to that laugh made me feel strangely convinced or refreshed as if various mysteries had been solved.
When I got this axe, I explained to everyone I was fighting with how to use the power of the axe.
When I was injured and couldn't fight, I wanted everyone to use this useful axe... but Klaus, Juuha, volunteers, and knights could not demonstrate the power of this axe alone.
Everyone couldn't use the power of the Battle Axe because of my bad explanation... I thought it was because of my bad head... but it wasn't, it was something I could only use because I didn't have magic in the first place...
Klaus said he had magic, and Juuha said he could use some magic, and the Knights certainly said that.
All the volunteers... I don't know, but they probably all had magic.
The mystery was solved neatly and I felt refreshed... so I smiled at the mall,
"Oh, I've solved a lot of mysteries! Thank you!"
Speak with.
As Mall came up with a very unexpected expression in response to the words, I left Yurt with a sense of pride... For the time being, I wanted to give this dagger to Uncle Ben for emergency use when we were gone, thinking about that... I turned my foot towards the village of Ilk.
