Master heritage

“I’m happy you died in peace master. I’ll stop feeling sad.”

I decided so after master’s gone to heaven.
And I didn’t make a grave for master.
He already said before hand he don’t need a grave and satisfied if someone know him would remember, so I would complied with his will.

But there’s one problem
It was the magic bag contents that have been given as memento by master.
Master was an orphan and apparently had no relatives.
Since there is no problem whatsoever with what I’ve received.
Even if there is, it was originally something that would rot away in the depth of demon forest.
Even if he had a formal heir, I doubt they would go to get it by risking their lives.

Master is an excellent mage, he also an excellent adventurer before being hired by Brihedar margrave.
As he might have many heritage, towards the demon forest to get it only to died and lose everything.
Even if you pay and ask an adventurer, I doubt that someone would take it because of the place.

For ordinary people, it would natural to give up.

In fact, even Brihedar margrave which ended in failure with load of damage that occurred from sending troops, didn’t even search the memento at all.

“Let’s confirm the contents for now. I hope there is a good magic tool.”

I send a bit of magic while touching the little mana prism that attached to the magic bag.
By doing so, the list of item that exist in the magic bag would appear in my mind.

The mechanisms still unclear but it’s really useful feature.
And a letter from master to me appear in my mind.

I take it out from the bag immediately and when I open the seal, the list of item in the magic bag had been carefully written in there.

“With this, I don’t need to fight against a large amount of list that come to my mind.”

The letter was written this way.

First is he want our last greeting to be simple so he had written this letter in advance.
Next is when this latter was taken out from the bag, that would be the proof which the owner of this bag was officially handed to me.

“Before your magic capacity is expanded by capacity adjustment, your magic capacity even in training in short period with me has been dramatically increased. Never neglected the training until the limit comes. Now is the content of my heritage to be pa.s.sed to you…”

First is equipment like robes and accessories that master had patronized, staff, magic sword which the hilt produce magic, the other is a bow that shot magic arrow, and finally several knife made of orichalch and mithril each.

Master’s an excellent adventurer indeed.
All the accessories has magic effect, it was only expensive things.

Next is a kind of magic tools used habitually, mage exclusive use and general-purpose item traded with high-priced occupied half the market.

“The food’s cold, there a magic tool that become refrigerator which produce ice…the most part is a general-purpose item, it was written that he picked it up in the ruins in his adventurers era.”

Adventurer is a work which invade monster territory, can obtains materials and meat from hunting and collecting a plant and mineral that exist only in the territory.
And beside that is searches for ruins or dungeon at the old magic civilization dynasty which for some reason only exist among the existence of monster, including those obtained in the ancient heritage.

It just that only a few adventurer can achieve this.

Old magic civilization dynasty which had died out now about a million years ago, ancient dynasty excel at manufacturing a superior magic tool better than now, from that ruins, it was a fact that it yield magic tool with expensive price but also with bigger danger.

Fear of monster, I can agree about anyone would not survive in ruins search which master have been successful in his adventurer era many times.

“However, it was a fact that the success rate of entering the monster territory with a few elite’s overwhelmingly high. I was going to explain that to Brihedar margrave but…”

An accurate interlude written in the letter as if he was talking with me, I instinctively smile wryly.

“Pus.h.i.+ng in with this large army, the purpose of exterminate the monsters in the demon forest is to develop a new land. No wonder we can’t stand out from this. The first few days, I’ve been successful in flashy monster annihilation. I was surrounded by a lot of monster while I was in highs spirit. Only a few of our people can escaped safely.”

As for those few survivors, more than half can’t be a soldier anymore.

Come to think of it, the survival of our Baumeister knight territory army which their military service have been exempt, I remember I saw those that I help farming and cultivation was cowering and frightening to something.

They must had received a lot of trauma.

“Back to our talk, I was trying to stop sending stoops as much as possible. But Brihedar margrave will not agree even if it was a complete denial. Therefore, even if we can’t open the new land from monster, I should put out the reward from the result of hunting to maintain soldiers’ morale.”

By hunting with two thousand people, the result of materials and meat taken from monster, the collected materials that have been gathered from demon forest are bought and the reward is put out.

If the soldiers’ purse was full with money, they would be in the mood to retreat at once, Brihedar margrave also must compensate the cost of sending troops, and obtained the material just like honour from the results of subjugating a lot of monster to match the balance audit.

Master also partic.i.p.ated in dispatching troops thinking like that.

The results they declared not to withdraw until monster in the demon forest is annihilated which made them more arrogant, but they saw h.e.l.l immediately after that.

“And since the logistical difficulties decreases if I am there.”

Indeed, the front war potential increased even if master alone with his magic bag was put in the pack force.
And also for the logistics of 2,000 Brihedar margrave army, it’ll be a big burden.

Even among the near territory, the demon forest high mountains also exceeds evenMt.Fuji, and they can’t arrive unless further march to the south about three hundred kilometers.
Moreover, our Baumeister knight territory population only about eight hundred people.
It couldn’t be able to supply the food consumed by 2,000 army.

Besides the Baumeister knight territory military, let alone as a partner to joint in the fight against the enemy to release the demon forest, even the local procurement from the source location would be out of the question.

Food and resource for 2,000 army to be able to act for several months and to carried it in the pack force to the high mountains higher than Mt.Fuji
At this point, master had lamented in the letter that he just realized how reckless this plan.

I mean why father never thought about this?
In order to regain the rights after the war even a little, he let grand-uncle as the va.s.sal to led 100 soldiers, he had spread the wounds as the result.

“I thought that you could understand this, all foods and resources in this magic bag was scheduled to be used by Brihedar margrave army and Baumeister knight territory army.”

But magic bag of a great mage, how much it can packed a large amount of item.

Brihedar margrave that can prepare resources this much is quite something but master magic power is a frightful thing to be able to put away all of it in this magic bag.

“I guess you are wondering about how much is my magic power?”

He can read what in my mind brilliantly, the next line contained the exact tsukkomi.

“But still, the food that 2,000 people can act for about three months…”

The majority is a hard-baked bread mixed with salt that can be preserved for long-term, cookie with no sugar, salted meat, and some sort of sauerkraut in the barrel, I can’t really understand the nature of this magic bag when I think about it carefully.

Among the magic bag, the times not pa.s.sed at all in there since this world under the influence of magic that deviates from normal physical laws.
That’s why, in the Imperial city which in the heart of the continent, mainly those wealthy middle cla.s.s citizens can have a fresh fish from the sea served in their dinner.

This was the knowledge from the book but I really want to grow up quickly and leave this inconvenient rural area.

Next is weapon and armor for reserve.
This is mainly created from iron and bronze.
Similarly like spare tent, this is really look like something used by medieval army, there also concern about the supply of drinkable water in the field, many leather bags with water inside, the purpose is to improve soldier’s morale.
Brihedar margrave territory wine product, one used to treat injury, a lot of distilled liquor such as brandy were prepared.

The adult that love wine seems to be the same in every world.

I also in my previous life never misses to drink it every evening though I am not a heavy drinker.
I had given up as I can’t obtain it now.

“Next, this large number of monster material and meat, so this is the loot collected in the demon forest…”

Being fueled by many reward, there was a large amount of loot in the bag.
But even if I can understand anything by knowledge, there is no way the current me can utilize this many loot.

I should left it for now since it would not deteriorate if it remain in the magic bag.

“And finally a large amount of jewels, ornament, silver coins and gold coin…”

With master property, Brihedar margrave shows off as a big-shot n.o.ble seems to have prepared it for the rewards to soldiers.

A lot of money inside the bag enough to make you feel dizzy.

“The current me can’t use it though.”

There are no stores where you can shopping casually in this village, or rather the existence of this bag can’t be published.
Now matter how much I have grown up as the eighth son, what would they do if they know I have this much property?

The worst is I have even had to consider about the danger of my life.

“So the contents was sealed until I’ve grown up.”

I really wanted to wear master robe and accessory with strong magic in it but my body still a 6 years old.
The problem is the size, I had no choice but to wait until this body to growth.

“Fuh…let’s return…”

I put away master equipment to the magic bag, I go home while holding today spoils.
