Magi Craft Meister

"Well, there's something I need to tell you"

After the bath and dinner.

Reinhardt is one line, namely Jen and Reiko, Elsa, his nanny Meine, Butler Adberg, and Escort Hellman. Plus I gathered my own butler and two samurai in the same room.

It is a serious mode.

It's about this village.

Reinhardt looked at Jen,

"Have you noticed anything?

asked. Jen thought for a second,

"Yeah, I thought it was kind of an unfamiliar village"

Reinhardt groaned,

"Oh, it should be. Anyway, this is a village with only old people."

I said. Jen, who heard it, glared at his face,

"Is this place going to be neglected..."

And groan.

"Is that it?"

Elsa asked Jen when she heard about it. You look surprised.

"Ah, oh. Think people are going to be gone?

"Yes."

Reinhardt took it over,

"In order to maintain the population, a couple must have at least two children. Elsa, you understand?

"Mmm."

"Considering infant mortality, military service, plague, etc. the three of you are where you want them, as an exchange man"

Increasingly Jen has figured out what Reinhardt wants to say.

"In short, this village is no longer populated."

Reinhardt then started talking with a slightly spicy face.

"About twenty years ago, neighboring Cellular kingdom hung a little on the peripheral countries"

Weaving light words together to soothe serious stories at all.

"The sincerity of it, well, you wouldn't know it unless it was the previous King Cellular himself, but you can't even ask those under the soil, so you can guess."

Say so. Look at you and Elsa, and Meine,

"They generally say they wanted to expand their territory, but that's not such a small reason"

A sigh of breath Reinhardt was

"I wanted to swallow all the kingdoms on the continent."

I let it go.

"That's from the Unity Party (Unifiler) …"

When Jen said so, Reinhardt shook his head vertically.

"Yes. The Unity Party (Unifiler) philosophy already existed at that time. Now King Cellular looks less ambitious than his predecessors. But I see the fact that he is more ambitious than his predecessors. My predecessors were easy to understand, but now the king... honestly, I can't read through it. but there can be no longer any ambition to dominate another country. Maybe he's gaining strength now."

So I saw Elsa again,

"So the previous King Cellular attacked the kingdoms of Egerea and Franz for three years, 21 to 18 years, to be exact. My empire of Shouro was never particularly attacked because it was not descended from the kingdom of Dinar. But in defense, there were times when we had to march to the Kingdom of Cellular."

So Jen notices too.

"I see, is there a cause for this village to be neglected during that period"

"Well that's what I'm saying. And Elsa, I hear it was around that time that your father made his mark."

When Reinhardt said that, Meine's expression seemed distorted for a moment, but no one noticed.

"Father."

"Oh. My uncle told me that when you were in the Kingdom of Egerea as captain of a garrison abroad, you stopped the Royal Cellular Army, which was more than triple, and minimized damage to your friends and nearby residents."

"Well, Elsa's father is amazing."

That was the word that came out of Jen's honest feelings, but Meine, who heard it, was even more distorted in the face. but it's the same thing nobody notices because it's leaning over.

"A large number of soldiers, soldiers, died in the battle against the Royal Cellular Army, but among them Lewis... he also said there was the father of Count Kuzma"

Jen is satisfied with the explanation that

"Oh, is that why Count Kuzma got younger and inherited the house"

Reinhardt's face remains stiff.

"That's right. And the soldiers were conscripted from here and there. This would have been one of them. He was between the ages of 20 and 40, and everyone who could fight was conscripted."

Counting backwards, those who were 40 at the time are now close to 60, and it is also convincing that there are only old people in this village.

"I hear some squads were formed by villages. And some squadrons would have been wiped out. This village is one of them."

That's what Reinhardt said with his sigh. Jen also feels darkened, but raises one question.

"So what about the wife of the conscripted or the child who was a teenager at the time?

That's what they asked me. Reinhardt looked sad,

"I abandoned the multi-divisional village."

"I threw it away..."

"This is north of the capital of the Kingdom of Egerea, and if the troops of the Kingdom of Cellulose attack me, it will surely be a battlefield. Fortunately, they didn't appear to have been exposed to the war because the house was still there, but the mothers with the children evacuated them just in case."

…………

The place was filled with silence.

"I'm sorry we talked a little heavy. But Elsa, you're 17, too, and I think you should know a little bit about the world, about when your father was involved."

And turn to Jen,

"Jin, what I wanted you to hear was that I wanted you to know and I wanted your opinion."

"Opinion?"

"Yeah. You just said 'neglect', didn't you? I mean, you've seen or know other villages, settlements like this, right? Then, if you knew what kind of measures the traders had taken in that case, you'd want me to tell you."

Reinhardt is also a member of the nobility, a man on the trading side.

Also in reality this world is plagued by a lack of population. I also think it is necessary to find a way to get rid of it at all.

Jen, who was so told, evokes the memory of a show he saw when he was on Earth, which took up the Limit Settlement.

"Right, hey."

Pompous and Jen spin out the words as they trace their memories.

"First of all, industry, right? If we don't make money and live there, people won't get together."

"Hmm, you're right. Go on."

Reinhardt is also scowling.

"I guess they won't be able to migrate unless it's an attractive place for young people"

The land is surplus in many areas. I hope there's a reason why you want to live here.

"I can see that, too. Specifically?

Jen recalled the news that some municipality was doing it,

"Tax relief in the beginning, I guess. Like lightening up some percent for about five years"

I explained it by modifying it to apply to this world.

"I see! You'll have them settled in those five years. That's a good idea."

"And then there will be a slight reduction in taxes depending on the number of children born, I guess like"

Reinhardt lowered his face as he was impressed,

"Excellent. That was on my mind, too. Jin, don't you have talent as an exchange man?

and admired it. Shake Jen Hakaburi,

"Yes, no, I'm the only man who can make things, don't buy me over"

I said hastily. Whatever, it's all for sale.

After that, we exchanged many stories and opinions, and it was getting late at night, so we each went up to the room.

Jen was uncommonly contemplating that night as she lay on her bunk.

I can make a lot of things because my predecessors gave me all of them.

Hit the turnaround.

(Explained to Reinhardt and the others that it was because they were educated in modern Japan, not my style)

Somehow I will no longer.

(What am I supposed to do myself?

Running obsessively and doing what he wanted to do, Jen was the first time he came to this world to think about what he should do in this world.
