Magic Beast

Throughout Earths history, the ruling class known as nobility existed around the world.

Just what the heck was their source of authority? After I was reincarnated as a nobles heir, I often thought about the nobles of Earth from my past life.

Was it their individual leadership? The peoples faith they had backing them due to religions? The family history they have as rulers? There are probably many answers to that question.

After living 12 years since I was reincarnated on the Elluo continent, I now think that their authority was very unstable.

Nobles on Earth were the same as normal people if you strip them of their clothes. Just because they were nobles, it didnt mean that they are another species that bleeds blue like horseshoe crabs. All humans were equal. Commoners and nobles were the same homosapiens.

In the end, it seemed to me that their source of authority was the tautology of they are great because they are. When I think about the history of nobility being overthrown by the people, their authority was something that was easily destroyed with one wrong move.

In the Elluo continent, the source of the nobles authority is very simple.

Nobles are great because they are strong. Its very easy to understand.

We almost never get sick, we have a strong and resilient body, and we can freely control powerful magic.

Those powers that could already label us as a different species compared to commoners are what makes nobles nobles.

Throughout the history of the Elluo continent, there is also a history of battles between humans and magic beasts.

Magic beasts which indiscriminately attack humans and bring disaster to the lands could also be called a type of natural calamity. In order to protect themselves from those natural calamities, people followed the humans who possessed strong magic power and came under their rule.

In other words, battling with magic beasts and taking them down is both a nobles duty and their pride.

If there will ever be a time when the authority of nobles will waver, it would probably be when civilization is developed enough for commoners to repel full-grown magic beasts by themselves. At the very least, I dont think that will happen in this era Im alive in. Therefore, I can play with commoners in bed without worries.

A noble must not run away from magic beasts.

After a magic beast is born in a field, they live in a world where the strong devours the weak, and they grow up while they repeatedly fight to the death with other magic beasts.

They jump out of the fields when they are completely grown up, bringing disasters to humanity.

A fully grown magic beast (mature magic beast) brings all kinds of catastrophes with them. Just from them walking around alone, the ground withers and rivers rot. They often spread unknown plagues and strange diseases, and if they are left alone, they will destroy the humans living environment in the blink of an eye.

How strong a mature magic beast is depends on the size of the field it grew up in. The larger the field is the longer itll take for a magic beast to grow up, and the more vicious it will be once matured. The field of Nyuneri is one of the larger fields in the Levios kingdom. A magic beast that has matured enough to leave that field will become a considerable threat. If it doesnt get dealt with, the entire area around the city of Nyuneri will most likely receive devastating damage.

Young master, I have received a letter from the lord

Good work

I accepted the letter from Tesh and placed it on the desk.

When I was about to open the letter, Tesh continued to speak with a trembling voice, seemingly touched.

The lord was very pleased when he heard about the magic beast subjugation, young master. He said that you did the Qualdense family proud as the heir

After I learned that a magic beast had appeared when I was at the outer city gate, I quickly returned to the military base.

The sound of the alarm bell came from the front-line base thats located in front of the field. There was enough time for me to rally the troops.

By the time I arrived at the base, the soldiers there were all organized and ready to go on my command.

A battle with a mature magic beast is also a battle against time. Because of that, I was granted the authority to act without consulting my father when it comes to magic beast subjugations. This is the same for grandfather or mother.

If we cant defend the citizens of our territory from magic beasts, it would affect our dignity as nobles.

Right after I led the army past the southern city gate, the mature magic beast showed up at the perfect timing.

If I am to give a comparison to its appearance, it was a turtle about the size of 2 common convenience stores from Japan in my past life stacked on top of each other.

Mature magic beasts are generally pretty big, but their size is based on their types. That massive turtle was a mature magic beast that would belong in the small category if anything.

When I looked at the ground, I saw that the magic beasts tracks were dyed purple as the ground became contaminated.

Judging from its tracks, it looked like the beast was heading straight north. It probably sensed that there were a lot of humans in that direction with its nose or something.

I deployed the army and had them surround the magic beast. Then, I had the soldiers draw its attention with their ticklish arrows and spear attacks as I watched for the right timing to hit it hard with my magic.

After I struck it 2 times with everything I got, the massive magic beast was no longer moving and the subjugation was a success.

Although there were a few soldiers with minor to serious injuries, there were luckily 0 casualties. It was unusual considering a mature magic beast of that size had appeared. I was told that there were many more injured people at the front-line base located in front of the field.

Also, I dont know if its because mature magic beasts hate the field they were born in, but once they come out of a field, they will never go back again. The soldiers of the front-line base seemed to have managed to escape death by evacuating into the field when they got injured.

By the time we defeated the magic beast and everything was settled, it was really late at night. If I was in Japan in my past life, the sun would probably have come back up a long time ago.

After I made sure that the magic beast was completely dead, I went to the villa at the castle town and just went to sleep there instead of returning to the castle.

I was planning on getting a good night of rest but when I woke up, the sun had yet to rise.

It seems that staying up too late at night made me not able to sleep well instead. The excitement from battle might still be lingering on me.

Since I was wide awake for some reason, I took a bath and had breakfast before I returned to my room to relax.

I left the cleaning up of the magic beast subjugation to the commanding officers of the army, so I did not have anything to do anymore.

Hmm

As I read my fathers letter, I received lines filled with generous compliments from him. Thats because defeating mature magic beasts is the highest honor for a noble.

I had informed him about the story Lupetta told me before I slept, and it seems that my father decided that it was an important matter. In the letter, he said that he had decided to send the army into the field. They planned to depart from the military base of Nyuneri at noon. They will also check to see if there are any other magic beasts there that are about to mature while they are there.

Father also instructed me to make Lupetta go with the army. Its a cheap price for her to pay considering how shes not going to be punished for stealing the cart and how we healed Mergin for her.

Tesh. Go get Lupetta right away. Its my fathers instruction

Understood

After Tesh passed my word to a servant outside of the room, I heard the sound of running footsteps. My order is probably being carried out right away.

I decided to write a letter back to my father. Its so annoying to talk via letters for every little thing.

Mature magic beasts can sometimes spread strange, incurable, or infectious diseases. There are some terrifying diseases that could infect even nobles.

Since I fought a mature beast right before my eyes, its possible that I have caught one of those diseases. For that reason, I didnt go back to the Nyuneri castle and decided to spend my night at the villa.

If I was indeed infected, I could spread it to my parents and even Fanny. I have to avoid that at all costs. Even though I have a proven record of curing nasty, strange diseases with my powerful healing magic in the past, I did not want to take any chances.

That is why I could only talk to father via letters since I cant directly talk to him in person.

*Haa*

I wrote in the letter that I cant go back to the castle for a while considering the possible incubation period, and I will just leave for Nambonan city like this.

Since the only people who are busy due to the terrorism plan of the Synod church are the people in the army and everything else remained the same as usual, all the preparations I needed for departure were completed

In fathers letter, he said that I will reward you for subjugating the magic beast! You can ask me for anything!!, so I wrote a request back to him just in case.

I wrote that if he decides to execute the Synod churchs priest Cynthia, I would like him to hold on that decision until I come back to the city of Nyuneri. After the Synod churchs plan comes to light, its possible that Cynthia will be executed as well due to the fact that shes a priest of the Synod church. I told him that I would like to not see her dead when I come back from Nambonan city.

I want to do it with her at least once before shes executed.

After I finished writing the letter, I handed it to Tesh. I decided to have my letter delivered to my father immediately because there are many important things in there that he needs to read.

I will take my time to write other letters to mother and Fanny tonight.

Since I remained in pretty much the same pose writing the letter the whole time, I tried to move around a bit. That was when I realized that a part of my lower half was bulging.

My cock is hard because I have morning wood. I didnt sleep with anyone yesterday or the day before yesterday. I have been abstinent for 2 days.

An agonizing lust had been brewing in my heart.

Then, my door was knocked on and a servant came in.

Young master. Lady Lupetta has arrived, what would you like to do?

That was quick

Its because I was told that the matter is urgent

The figure of Lupetta being woken up by a servant at the inn surface in my head.

Since the army departs at noon, I told my father in the letter that I would bring Lupetta to the military base in time by then.

Its still early right now so there is tons of time until then.

Come to think of it, yesterday Lupetta said that Shell do anything. Shes the one who said it, so Ill have her do just that.

Since I didnt have anything to do anymore, it was perfect.

Okay. Bring her in

Understood

After I said that, the servant left the room. Tesh also left to prepare the bath.

As I remained alone in the room, I decided to do my morning calisthenics exercises while I waited for Lupetta.
