There’s a reason why the royal family is in a rush to the effect the reforms. On the underside of the Saintess’ fall to witchery, the advanced-level dungeon had disappeared which allowed the miasma level’s return to normal. Such a development may sound well, but has in actuality, not exactly been as pleasing, as far as the kingdom is concerned. For the country, with spontaneous dungeon appearances becoming a integral part of their lives, the loss of a dangerous dungeon proved to them, quite the unconsidered drawbacks.
Most particularly of all, the sacred stones, an indispensable material in the erecting of barriers, principally used in the royal capital’s defense, are only created through magic crystals, a material that can only found in the advanced-level dungeon. Furthermore, the adventurers, who seek such a dungeon in hopes of finding hidden treasures and to measure their strengths, have now lost a place to go. It is worth a mention, in the case of the use of barriers that had hitherto been monopolized by the sacred church, that the proposal of the use of magical stones has been recommended as of late, which also gave rise to the issue of magicians raising their price.
The defeat of the bad, bad witch, does not conclude with just a simple happily ever after.
As per Crown Prince, Yello, in his opinion of such matters;
He stated that the miasmas are present in all countries, only differing in density. The increased levels in forests would lead to births of cryptids, and in mountains, the formulation of magic stones. He concludes that as long as monster’s attacks and the miasma’s effects on human body managed, everything would work out as they should be.
The example that he presented was that of the empire’s, which is to say, the case of the low-priced magical robes that the kingdom has imported from the empire, which, in the latter’s lacking of Baromets, were made from the dungeon monster, “Underworld’s Spider,” as a substitute. While people may be predisposed to think that these spiders can be found easily anywhere, going to intermediate dungeons to fight with multitudes of monsters in procuring tens of thousands of materials would require both time and labor. In the first place, the empire was never heard to have had any dungeon within the confines of its territories.
‘Then, where do you suppose does the empire procure such materials? In the underworld, they do.’
Hell― it’s a term commonly attached to plants and animals found in dungeons. The same goes for the aforementioned ‘Hell’s Spider,’ as well as the Kodomo Dragon, in which Leddorio’s national treasure ‘Kodomo Dragon’s Eye1‘ was taken from, which is also known for its other name, ‘Hell’s Lizard.’
According to Yello, the rifts in dimensions that lead to the monster’s world are commonly called “Hell” or “Underworld” in foreign kingdoms; Dungeons, he says, are the pathways to such a place.
‘In my inquiries of my father, his majesty, the king, the dungeons were also previously called “Scabs of the Underworld” in our olden days. Perhaps, it was due to the church’s notions that they are now presently overlooked.
This brings me to the point; In consideration of our country’s economy and national defense, and in what manner shall we control the miasma; perhaps we should be following the empire’s example.’
‘The empire’s example, highness? Do you mean to say—’
‘Yes. We must bridge our country to the underworld.’
His outlandish proposal made the conference clamor. It will be dangerous, no doubt; they questioned what the prince planned to do if this leads to an influx of monsters there to here. However, judging from the prince’s response, their reaction seems to be as he expected.
‘Is it so much surprising? Dungeons and the Underworld; there’s not much difference to expect, save from the different names. On the contrary, by intentionally creating a pathway to the underworld, we will be able to prevent the spontaneous emergence of irregular dungeons and suppress miasma too.’
‘But sir, no matter easy you speak of the change in terminologies, it does not stand the same for the people’s fears. Where do you intend to place such a dangerous thing?’
In this kingdom, the idea of the dungeon’s synonymity with the underworld is still vague. Aside from the association of items with relation to monsters, and the latter’s dwelling place, there is no other consideration to mind. It’s a peaceful way of thinking nurtured by the hundred years of being under the protection of the saintesses and barriers. Now with the introduction of a foreign world, they cower at the thought of its menace threatening their doorsteps.
‘You have a point, sir. We may have to reconsider their re-education in regards to that matter. As for the question, sir; I am considering the advanced-level dungeon in the Iris Mountains for now. It has also a volcano, which we may perhaps, be able to seal, crater, and all, if we connect it to the underworld.
The peace and order of that place have always been bad. In that regard, perhaps, they are not so unfamiliar with the prospect of dangers.’
‘The Nansonia, region, is it then, sir. Certainly, it is quite known for its severe environs, and I heard that the likelihood of any nobilities wanting to visit such a place is practically nil. The harshness of the convent that the two saintesses chose to discipline themselves is known too.’
‘In that part, I am already on the verge of investing in a long-term project. The person who will be in charge will be given the title of Archduke and shall be responsible for the Nansonia region’s reforms. Although, the official conference of title shall be considered way into the future.’
Just like that, the gaze of the crown prince lead all the cabinet and minister’s towards the person in concern, Prince Leddorio, himself.
