Episode 4 Knight territory of Bow Meister.

"Our Baumeister knight territory is actually as large as the Great Duke in terms of its area."

After breakfast, I was told by my older brother Erich, who was on the same litter, about the situation in my own home, the Bauister Knights.

I was worried that my six-year-old would suddenly ask such a difficult question, but other brothers and servants, including my new parents, did not seem particularly uncomfortable.

I mean, I'm the youngest boy with miso treatment, ten years younger than the mild, intelligently-looking boy Erich, so I guess he didn't get much attention so far.

It seems that it is sometimes useful to treat it as miso.

"So, if you develop everything, my father will ..."

"I wish we could develop it. Well, the frontier would be solid."

But his brother Erich's tone is dull, so it seems that he could develop it.

In our new hometown of Knight territory of Baumeister, the eastern and southern parts are facing the sea.

But between the barely open land, there was a vast wilderness and forest.

This forest, which is called the "Devil Forest" by people inside and outside, has a place to produce various natural ingredients and medicinal herbs, and in some cases minerals and gems, etc. If developed, it would bring enormous wealth.

But at the same time, this forest is also a treasure trove of demons.

Monsters are creatures whose mechanism of occurrence is unknown, but which are ordinary wild animals that have become huge and violent, or that have apparently escaped from natural ecosystems.

They have a great reproductive power, and their strength is the weakest, but they are not toothed by ordinary humans.

Instead, when they were knocked down, the fur and tusk became expensive materials, and the meat and the like were also delicious and expensive.

That's why there are adventurers who specialize in their defeat and adventurer guilds who support and manage them, but the problem is that even this adventurer's guild can not refuse to set up a branch, but this Knight territory of Baumeister Is on the outskirts.

"Certainly, the Demon Forest may be a great harvest for a strong adventurer, but there are thousands of such monster nests all over the continent ..."

It seems that there are thousands of large and small territories in Linguaia where such demons live.

It could be a wilderness, a plain, a river or a lake, or a forest like ours.

A certain area is a territory of monsters, and if you find humans and other animals that invade them, they will be eliminated.

Earlier, the miserable end of the Bleichrader frontier, which his father Artur talked about, seemed to be the result of neglecting the territorial consciousness of the demon.

"With regard to the end of the Breichrader Frontier, it was said that both his father and his predecessor, Breichrader Frontier, were too impatient ...

In addition, it seems that the job of an adventurer who intrudes into the demon territory alone or with a small number of people and hunts a small number of demons according to its ability is properly established.

Of course, many people lost their lives on the way, but the dangerous fruition was so great that many of them made money in one generation and became famous and served many royal palaces and nobles.

"But, Erich. Then why did you refuse to set up a guild branch?"

"It's very hard to turn."

Yes, there are multiple areas where monsters live near the royal capital.

While they do not come out of their territory for some reason, they do not pardon invading adventurers and troops.

Death struggle between humans who enter the territory of the demon in search of rich money and monsters trying to eliminate it.

Therefore, no matter how many people become adventurers, the galactic continent still has many untouched monster-dwelling areas in the central part, because it consumes as much.

Naturally, it is impossible to develop these territories, so both the Helmut Kingdom and the Arkart Holy Empire were worried about calling the territory where the monsters live as “the bruise of the continent”.

"Think about it. How much of a border, but how much of our Baumeister knight territory, which only has a knight, has vast territory."

It seems that the birth of the Knights of Baumeister began when the poor knights, who were uselessly smoking in the royal capital, brought dozens of poor people from slums and other villages and opened rural areas in this area.

"The royal palace did not seem to believe that humans would open a rural area here, and as soon as his ancestors were reported to have successfully set up a village, the formation of the Knights of Baumeister was acknowledged. Seems like that. "

Nevertheless, the Baumeister knightship was terribly remote and the means of interaction with the outside world was terribly scarce.

"Three villages open at the foot of the mountains that run along the borders of the north and west, with a population of about 800. The main industry is agriculture and only a small amount of hunting and gathering. It's a salvation to get it. ''

Neighbors say that the territory of the Bleichrader frontier, which has been hurt by our involvement, is located in the west and the same weak territorial territory is located in the north.

In the meantime, however, the mountain ranges where flying dragons form a swarm and live in the meantime, and there are many other monsters, so the only exchange with them was trading with a merchant who visited once every few months.

"It seems that there is a narrow mountain path that you can barely pass if you have escort. However, escort of adventurers is essential, and imported goods from outside are expensive."

Furthermore, the escort missions of the corps, which could hit such remote villages and even the Hiryu, are not popular among adventurers.

Naturally, the reward has to be bounced, so the price of the product rises, and Artur seems to be in a state where even the tariff, which can be said to be the right of the lord, can not be applied.

"If there were no tariffs, there would be no merchants coming here."

My brother Erich continued to explain with a grin, but in short it was surrounded on all sides by the area where monsters live, and a huge amount of unexplored land including that land is recognized by the kingdom as a territory, but development is impossible at first In the countryside in a bad state.

This seemed to be the reality of my new home, Knights of the Baumeister.
