Chapter 18: CH 16

Determine to be alone

“Hey, that kid must be…”

“Our lord eighth son, it must be Wendelin-sama…”

“I wonder what he was doing?”

“Who know? A kid is a precious manpower for us though he was not that hard worker’s according to the rumors.”

“Since he was the lord kid. It’s unquestionable as long he didn’t become nuisance.”

Eldest son Kurt and second son Helman get married, one month after the other brothers leave the house, I’m running through the prairie in the territory which even a plan to clean it has not been made yet.
On the way, I hear farmers that go to the farming place talking about me.

The content is “A selfish child who even not helping the family” which I know already.
Well, father and eldest brother Kurt would not dare to say that.

They might thought I’m just a 7 years old kid but the development of irrigation canal and agricultural land reclamation would be more faster if I use magic freely in this place.
Actually, for me who already almost mastered even the advanced magic, the like of farmland and digging up irrigation canal would end quickly.

Only few human can do that, high-ranking mage is someone who can demonstrates an impressive ability just like that.
That said, it would be hard for father and the others to grasp my ability as mage so it was in the state of before deciding on asking for my help.

Father and the others would recognize that as “Magic user that reinforced the body’s ability to hunt the guinea fowl in the forest alone”.

And I finally obtained the permission to freely go outside during daytime.
There would be no problem even if I go outside with some freedom in movement.

Since this Baumeister knight territory is wide anyway.
In the area that father and the others recognize, three village with population of eight hundred people in foot mountains in the northern and western, such as farmland and forest which population is able to eat.

But eastern and southern part currently are uncivilized development area, Demon forest with coast and sea beyond that.
The territory and rights of Baumeister knight territory has the potential to become the greatest noble in south if it can be developed.

There exist a big gap in who actually capable of taking out that potential.

Father said that the sea is really valuable.

Demon forest cannot be broken through since it was difficult to develop but beside no noble would start a fight, it would be a dream to monopolize fish product and a port to create trade and marine transportation.

And it was something wonderful to obtain salt with one’s own effort.
Baumeister knight territory actually facing the sea but normally buy salt from caravan that came from over the mountain.
The price also fair as the merchant coming all the way over the mountains but it still expensive.

This is the cause of why our soup taste slightly salty.

Oh well, our Baumeister knight territory in fact a place like that but I for now had moved to broaden my field of activities.
In the morning, a light training such as sword which a daily routine and received two small brown bread after breakfast to substitute for lunch from leaving the house.

By the way, the current hunting and gathering in the forest until now has been exempted.
The first stage for farmland and irrigation canal construction in proportion to the population has been completed so it was possible to take out the people for hunting.

Our family also, father and eldest brother Kurt alternatively go to the forest for hunting and gathering.
Indeed, leaving guinea fowl as the main dish for seven years old kid to captures, the pride in this two people would not take it.

That said, guinea fowl is a difficult prey even for professional hunter.
There are more day it cannot be captured so I take two-three grassland rabbit as souvenir on my return.

Anyway, Baumeister knight territory in southern part have many savage forests and meadow.
Rather it was nothing but that.
So there many thing I can capture in my way back.

“Well then, I will visit Demon forest today.”

“Flight” and “Teleportation” is two magic that I currently train intensively.
Flying is a familiar magic in the world of manga and games.

In some RPG and also manga.
Then there also magic in some anime.

Either way, magic in one’s body can be used at once.
I feel uncomfortable at first from raising my flight speed without thinking much about it but it was a good memories as I could not defend my own body from air pressure.

I have no problem with the speed either as it was like average car that run to the highway.

Besides it was possible to move to the point that I remembers once with Teleportation in an instant.

Thinking this way, I can reach the sea instantly that come into my head but I actually had not even arrived at Demon forest yet.
Because I have no recorded map for other regions expect the place I live in. Moreover, to move at will in Baumeister knight territory which the area size is comparable to Hokkaido, I have spent this weeks creating map for savage land.

The results of this three weeks of effort, almost the entire area in savage land, the size of Demon forest was about one-quarter of Hokkaido so I had succeeded in placing a sort distance point in thousand places for the remaining three-quarters.

That does not mean I set up a sign when I said point, I wrote it in my own detailed maps for potential location to land safely in case of Teleportation.

And to safely arrive in that point using Teleportation magic while imagining in my head the number and the rough location.
There were also the matter of location shift but flying is enough so other careful movement can be for later.

But what I found in this three weeks that this savage land is a goldmine.
Many possible land for cultivation, flood control is essential but there many river so not that much trouble.
Scattered woods and forest are treasure trove of various products, iron, copper, gold, silver, various jewelry, mithril and there more than one mines that produce orichalcum ore.

If it can be developed, let alone that Baumeister knight territory change job into marquis territory, it even possible to establish an independent small kingdom.

But it was a pipe dream for now.

Even kingdom still didn’t finish developing half the central part yet, noble was arranged accordingly in the southern frontier but they also held many savage land to develop in their own territory.

To sum it up, the people and funds to be sent to the savage land in this Baumeister knight territory was insufficient.
Development on this land perhaps would begin hundreds of years later.

Therefore, I can hunt two rabbit freely as I arrive in second, grilled and eating the captured fish, and utilized it as training field for new magic.
Especially to practice the high-ranking attack magic with high power is a suitable point in this uncivilized land with no one.

And I might practice earth special magic later.

In gold mine, I could take out only the pure gold ingredients from the collected ore and gold dust to make gold ingot.
Master call this “Extraction” and “Recombination”, it was the basic magic to become an alchemist.

As for advanced magic, magic can be added into silver to form mithril.
Utilizing magic by putting in a large quantities of magic even with little amount of mithril so it was suitable in practising magic to increases magic capacity.

Furthermore, as I can reach it instantly, the foremost more or least the Brihedar margrave troops which half the number of my Baumeister knight territory army.
But they apparently can move for just shortest distance into Demon forest.

It would be nice if at least one mine can be found but it would be difficult to send people to such remote savage land upon careful consideration, so the greed was disregarded for material of the closer Demon forest.

“A dark forest…What would be inside…”

I have finally succeeded in obtaining the view of Demon forest today.
The forest eeriness and gloominess can be seen from outside despite daytime, ominous bird cry in the ear or monster cry and scream also can’t be heard.

I doubt it was good place for a 7 years old child to enter alone.

“Well, I won’t go inside till I have grown up though.”

No matter how good I can use magic and enchants my physical strength.
There the chance that I would died from carelessly entering this forest.
It might be okay but I have no plan of risking my own life.

This world is not a game.
There is no continue button if I die once.

After grow up a little more to start training in sword and other martial art, and shaping it to some degree when I am an adult.
To that end, I’ll surely come here with Teleportation.

Even master can’t win and lost his live from swarming of monster in Demon forest.
I am not sure I can pass it through no matter how careful I am.

“But that does not mean I am gave up going to the sea.”

For one week after that, I am exploring Demon forest from the sky making full use of flying and detection magic.
Firstly, Demon forest is the most closer point to search for the sea, I am exploring it as there no tough monster that can fly on that route.

And I am out if there a dragon but if there is none then it might be possible to reach the sea flying with flying magic in full force.
Result of one week search, I somehow succeeds in finding a small spot to flown over from Demon forest into the sea by flying.

It was a fortune that monster doesn’t go out even one step from Demon forest, I can fly a little faster than a dragon if I put full speed with flight magic.

“There a delicious fish in the sea! And creating my own my own salt!”

I got tired with thin salty meal.

Even if I can’t get my hand on soy sauce and miso, I want to at least have meal with a little more strong taste.
If jump over this Demon forest, there a lot of salt was unexploited here.
Rather I want to express this.

“Flying! At max speed! Now to the sea!”

I can get fired up after a long time, burning a lot of magic power by jump over Demon forest at high altitude and high-speed with flight magic.

And after a few minutes, I had arrived at the sea.

“I did it—!It’s the sea-!”

There a sea that composed only beautiful sandy beach without human intervention and highly transparent sea water.
Moreover, this coast and sea deviates from monster territory so I could not perceive any dangerous existence even using detection.

There a response that appear to be large fish in the sea, maybe this is something like shark.
But as long I am enjoying myself in the shallows, it was not a presence to do harm to me.

“First is the meal.”

I create my own fishing equipment in a hurry, I start fishing in the rock near sandy beach with bread as the bait.
And fish in this place not easy to get agitated, I caught it easily even if I have less fishing experience.

I was a self-cooking in my previous life so I can pretty much cook the fish, making sure that I could eat this fish that look like mackerel directly with “Judge” magic. I put “Antidote” just in case and decide to burn it with fire to eat it.

The seasoning is only seawater but I enjoyed grilled fish in the sea after a long time.
When it was Baumeister family, crucian carp and koi carp pseudo sometimes caught in irrigation canal but it smell of mud and unappetising.
After eating one more time, it feel like I won’t stop eating it.

“Next is shellfish or crab and lobster.”

On the other rock, shellfish that looks like oyster, turban shell and abalone and eating large lobster and crab that had been caught easily.
After skewering then, baked with fire, waft a nostalgic, delicious smell.

“Delicious!”

While filling it in my mouth, I am sincerely enjoy the happiness in the sea after a long time.
