Helping with Adventurer Party Management

Pussy... pussy... pussy.

At the end of the Baron's report, the applause, which began with paralysis among the participants, soon turned into a heavily rain-like applause of thunder that crushed the entire high ceiling atelier.

"Excellent find!

"What courageous research!

"Baron is arguably the best intellectual bearer in the kingdom!

The nobles applauded wholeheartedly and praised the Baron for accomplishing this adventurous journey.

The rapporteur, the Baron, takes on a much more facetious shape and responds to the blessings of his colleagues by raising his right hand with excitement with a bright red face.

It is good to say that the dangerous trial (gambling) of investigative rows along adventurers has returned with sufficient results.

For a long time to this day, has it not been the best day of my life for a baron who has been disdained as a changer, whose research has paid off and whose honor has been restored?

From this day forward, from this study, the Baron's life changes.

All humans who heard the Baron's debriefing were convinced of the Baron's glorious future as a scholar.

"... what is anesthesia? Here we go."

I whine in a small voice, careful not to be heard by others, listening to the Baron's announcement.

I wish I hadn't put it in my mouth, but I couldn't keep my mouth shut.

I don't know if it's an injury feat or an excellent intellectual intuition, but what the Baron did is an invention and discovery that would be the first in this world: the use of anesthesia for monster capture.

At the same time, he would have made an example and announced the way in which he could easily capture monsters alive by attacking them with arrows and weapons stained with anesthetics, rather than with magical personal skills.

To do research on monsters, until now, I had to study corpses.

The monster basically lived away from the city, and researchers had no choice but to study the half-rotting corpse, more than a few days after his death, due to the geographical constraint of being within the walls, so it would have been helpless to suddenly target a lot of non-rotten parts such as skeletons, nails, and feathers.

But with the Baron's invention, the situation changes.

If the monster could be captured alive, the study of its ecology would proceed dramatically.

Because it will be easier to bring monsters to the city alive.

If research proceeds, an efficient method of exterminating monsters may be developed.

I can think of a few research themes, even if I'm just thinking about it a little bit.

For example, if we can study monsters alive, we should be able to take quantitative data on what kind of poison they are vulnerable to.

If we can discover a poison that is inexpensive and effective for monsters, even the weaker ones will be able to exterminate monsters.

Or if you can take out the monster's fresh guts, you'll be able to take data and compare which parts are doing what they do and where they die easily if they hurt you.

By dissecting the monster's stomach and intestines further, it is possible to infer the monster's diet and range of behavior, and the clarification of the ecology may proceed. Then we can capture monsters in traps, even if we don't confront them from the front.

If we can now distribute monster weaknesses, behavioural characteristics, methods and procedures of extermination, along with a granular picture surface using a printing press currently under development in the company (of which), to the whole kingdom, and if we can create an environment in which even rural peasants and rushing adventurers can have full access to that kind of information, we may one day be able to completely drive monsters out of this world.

In that case, that sight might come true for the future that I thought might not arrive.

Wheat fields spread on one side without a fence all the way across the horizon.

Children who play safely outside the walls.

That's how at night, adults who finish their field work are treated by their children to talk.

Talk about the scary monsters that once existed on this earth.

That's all the baron's discovery is worth.
